on about laying on the Irreverent IngrateB
we liberated the hard hand of authority ; but
it vill probably not be done , because Uncle
Sam's quality of mercy is used to being
overatnained , and , after all , he may bq in-
dined to chuckle up hie sleeve over the
good joke on himself.
From the standpoint of Cuban Ignorance
the crime is not so awful. They have been
using Mexican silver dollars and Spanish
silver dollars and all other silver dollars
for their worth In metal , amid the isabit baa
grown upon them. They undoubtedly have
the highest respect for Uncle Sam-for his
marvelous power as afighter. for his greatness -
ness as a force In civilization , for the
wonderful things he cpdo-but , somehow ,
they have not been educatQd up to the point
of believing that ho car' print a few wQrdS
on 40 or 50 cents' worth of slIver and make
it pass for a dollar.
And there Is where Undo Sam laughs up
his leove. He knows bow It is , and time
best part of the joke is that the Cubans
were so swift to understand It. The outlook -
look for populism in Cuba is not brilliant ,

l'hhiautelphhsu t'ress General Shatter's
general order on his campaign is a model.
In fit terms , in ft solutler's words , lie has
well and nortluiiy told his command antI
the world what has been done by the San.
tiago expedition. In alt recent military
hiMory there has not been an Instance In
which the fighting line of ofilcera and inca
did so mtmch and In which the staff work
so completely broke uhown. The work of
transportation , of landing nod moving or-
tillery , of feeding the men amid of providing -
viding supplies lacked much ; but the valor
of the American soldier supplIed every need
and triumphed over every obstacle.
1)altlmore American : It is terse , brIef ,
genrouq-Just tue sort of praIo that one
who does not talk but flghta would bestow
upon an army of the same sort. There is
no flattery ; we at this distance luwo only
heard part of the tUmcultics and dangers
which our troops encountered in that flea-
lierato campaign. Santiago will go down
into history as one of the most brIlliant
achievements of the American army , or any
other that ever moved against a foe. ( len-
oral Shatter has bestowed nothIng but Iner-
lIed praIse upon his men anti he In tumrn
deserves all of the consrnondathon that hta
nation may shower upon bins for his inns-
terly conduct of the cammipaign. There were
times when failure and dIsaster seemed
to threaten him , hut a different story has
been told and full credit for it belongs to
Shatter and his gallant fighters.
Nts' York Timi's General Shatter Is
modestly silent upoms his own controlling
aSians in the result , Of that lie leaves others
to speak. Tue foreign observers attending
the army of InvasIon hmavo already no
doubt spoken of it to their respective gov-
ernments. One American soldier , and a
very competent witness , General Guy Henry ,
has already spoken of it in a private letter
which has fortunately become public. "t
( lOUbt , " says General henry of General
Shatter , "it there Is another offlcer wise
would have 'gotten there' as ho dItL" It
is possIble that , in looking back over the
course of the campaign , in the light of time
knowledge furnished since Its triumphant-
close , General Shafter himself may see how
in tll.h ) lnrc. t.fWNI tim , ' . 0t how ho
might have saved hives. But no Mmcli crit-
icls.n is likely to occur to students of the
campaign Iii the light of the knowledge
that wan available to the general while the
operations were in progresR. They will be
apt to ogree that , considering the dhffleul-
tics that were encountered , miot all of theni
from the enemy , the campaign was con-
flouted at a surprisingly small cost , and
that , as General Shatter says , the work
done "han been rivaled upon but few occasions -
casions in the world's history. "
STORY OF Tilid S1ILILI.S.
Chicago Times-herald : The story of the
shells as told by the holes in the sunken
ships at Santiago reflects high credit upon
American gunnery and yankee valor.
Globe-Democrat : One of the most inter-
eating facts connected with the naval bat :
tie or aniiago is unat our mieet ucatroycu
the enemy with shells of eight-inch or
smaller caliber. Only two of the twelve-
inch shells lilt a Spanish ship , though , of
course , allowance lutist be made for the
moral effect of such huge projectiles.
Philadelphia Record : Time ruined ships of
Cervera's fleet present striking proofs not
only of the effectiveness , but of the rapid
firing of the American gunners. Although
sunk within forty minutes of the time they
issued from the curved neck of Santiago
harbor , both the Almirante Oquendo and the
Maria Teresa vcre riddled lIke sieves. The
Maria Teresa was struck thirty-seven and
the Oquendo fifty-five times. The bulk of
the work was done by the eight , six and five
inch projectiles , oven the Colon having been
hit only six times by the large shells. Torpedoes -
pedoes ready for firing have been discovered
in the tubes of the Spanish BhIps. Why the
Spanish sailors are not. as good gtmnners as
our own Is partly explained by the state-
moist of a former I3nitlsh consul at Santi-
ago. "Never once , " he dochares , "did I see
a drill or firing practice on board a Spanish
man-of-war during all my five years on the
coast of the island. "
Chicago Post : It. was the lIre traps these
medium-caliber rapid-fire guns , accompanied
as it was , especially In the cases of the
Vizcaya and Oquendo , by a perfect "devil's
tatto" from six and one-pounders. that tore
Cervera's fleet to pieces. So far as the
12 and 13-inch guns , with their 850 and 1,100
pound projectiles , were concerned , the
Spanish fleet would have escaped almost
scott free for all the damage they did. Not
only have tbe3e bellowing monsters been
proved of questionable effectiveness against
the enemy , but their effect upon the ship
carrying them is highly detrimental , The
jar of the discharge makes the stanchest
battleshIp shiver from stem to stern and
for a fw moments renders all in the room
lions do combat. Of course the gunners are
only momentarily stunned by the con-
cussion. But what is time umso of hurling a
half-ton projectile into space with no effect
upon anything except the atmosphere ?
