they got away with many of their
dond and nearly all of their wounded
od , They have plenty of horses
and flz up a kind of sled on which
they pile their dead and wounded ;
I Imvo scon them making off with
dozens of thotn from the field. Wo
continued to advance until 11 a.m. ,
when wo stopped and rested and
lad lunuh ot uornod beef and hard
aok ; there wo rested until about
12:30 , then changed our courao from
northeast to north. Wo traveled
until about an hour bcforo sun
down , when wo oamo into u strong *
y fortified body of the enemy ; wo
had quitn a till with them until
dark , when wo fell back for a dis-
tanoe of about ono and a half miles
to join the South Dakotos , who
were supposed to bo on our loft , but
who had got too far to the loft and
oft quito an opening between them
and UH. There wo stayed all night ,
ehoping on the ground without any
ooveriug. At daylight wo had
) reafast ! und advanced in skirmish
order all day until nearly night ,
when wo formed in oolmnnn of
'our and maruhod toward the rail
road , striking that place near Polo.
There wo oamo up just in tirno to
relieve Pennsylvania and South
Dakota , who had engaged the on-
omy. Our boys made a brilliant
charge , capturing ( ho rail road
Bridge and driving out the enemy ,
who occupied a well entrenched
) lace along the reilroad. Thi-ru
was where Nat Simuis was mortally
wounded ; ho tried very hard to live ;
10 said that ho was worth more than
all the niggers yot. I had stopped
to dross a captain of Gen. Otis'
staff , who was mortally wounded ;
the ball had passed through both
arms and his body ; I had not fin-
shed dressing him until I was
called to t > eo Siinms. Wo advanced
about ono mile further and there
> roparod to spend the night. Kay
Skelton and the chaplain had cap
tired 'a ' Filippino , and when they
brought him tn he told me that his
friend was shot through the thigh
and ho wished to have him brought1
in. I took him and another man ,
and wo went about a mile through
the dark and hunted him up and
brought him in. There wore about
100 dead and wounded left on that
field ; the wounded were all dressed
jy mo and wont to Manila the next
day. I took one of the prisoners
that were captured aud made him
my orderly ; ho oarriod my haver
sack and instrument case , with
; breo or four uauteonB of water and
ouoh things as that ; I kept him
with mo until the last night 1 was
m Malolos , when ho escaped.
The next morning wo started
from our oarap about 11 a. m. ; we
were in reserve ; South Dakota
and the Third artillery , ( who are
infantry by the way , ) had stirred
up a terrible nest of them about a
mile further up , and there was a
hard tight there. Wo finally came
up and swung out on the right flank
again aud rested about an hour aud
bad lunub. About 5:30 the enemy
made a charge on us ; wo waited
until they were within a few hun
dred yards , when we ( the third
batallion ) ohargod them , driving
them baok about two milep ; we lost
nine men wounded theie. Wo had
to fall back and join the other ret ;
iinents that night , which lost us all
the ground that wo had gained.
We lay in camp all that day and
rested. Qen. MoArthur paid during
the charge that our boys made ,
"There goes the Nebraskans taok-
ling and routing those folio wswhon
I wan uncertain about attacking
thorn with the whole force. " After
our roHt wo started out and ad
vanced in skirmish line for about
three quarters of a milo , when the
o'noiiiy opened on us at about 2,000
yards ; our boys would make a
charge and then fall down aud res
a minute , then jump up and go at
it again. We had about six mon
wounded in this charge. Wo rout
ed the ouemy and advanced severa
miles that day ; struck the rail road
rested and'wont ' on about four1 miles
further , when just before dark Kan
sas , Pennsylvania and South Da
kota and hoveral more struck the
enemy at a railroad bridge ; there
was a hard fight there , which latitoc
until after dark. The next after
noon wo again took the right whig
of the advance ; wo had apont all the
forenoon in Maneuvering ; wo had
not advanced 100 yards whou wo
were met by a terrible tire , but Ne
braska again all by themselves
ohargod and drove the enemy out.
There wo lost three mon killed and
nineteen wounded , Wo kept on
going unt.l almost dark , whou wo
lay down and took some rest , The
next moruing just as wo made a
start wo were opotnd upon by a
heavy fire , when a few shots from
our artillery And that of the Utah
quieted them down a bit. Two of
our men were wounded before we
advanced ; wo started out aud fought
for a distance of about two miles ;
wo lost ono man killed and seven
wounded. While I was dressing
ono man ono of the boys who had
stayed with him was shot through
the shoulder. I think his being
there saved mo from getting it my
self. Wo were now north of Ma
olos. which had been taken by
some of the troops on the loft. > Wo
foil back about a half milo and did
not advance any lurlhor. The next
lay Capt. Uorpolshcimor was aoci-
dontly shot through the iloshy part
of'tho ' loft forearm ; also another
follow shot his own finger off. The
boys ono and all were completely
worn out by that time ; of about
000 who started , only 1182 were in
camp on the morning of the first of
April. Nebraska had more fight-
ng and iv great deal more distance
to go than any other regiment.
Dlioro were only fourteen otliuers
oft ; I wai the medical ofliuer with
ho regiment. I was supposed to
> e with the board of health , but
Major Bourns kindly allowed mo to
go with the regiment.

The Democratic theory is never
correct in practice , and the disastro
us administration of Cleveland from
1893 to 1807 will never bo forgot-
ton. It was then that the Demo
cratic party , for the first time since
the close of the Civil War , had full
control of the Government ; aud
everybody knows what a mess it
made of business. The United

favorably and there is no reason
why wo should not still further
increase our export trade. The
