The world is still full of brutality, a malism and injustice, and blood-letting is still good for nations. The Scriptures de- clare that wars shall increase and in- volve the whole earth, until the second coming of the Prince of Peace. The name ‘Joshua' has come to stand for courage.

It is the outcome of cruel outrages, sickening enough to make the heart of a cannibal tremble with shame, or the heart of a ‘‘bloody Nero” throb with pity. The moon always ~keeps the same face toward the earth, but as she has looked down upon the barbarism of Spain she has felt like turning her face away in disgust We have been forced into this conflict by Spain’s refusal to comply with the requests of civilization. While T do not take issue with the United States, yet I think it would have been better for us to have fought Spain upon the issue of the Malne rather than the free- dom of Cuba. In my mind the Maine was deliberately blown up, and if we go to war, it ought to be to teach Spain that she cannot trifie with America—that Old Glory stands for lberty and union now and forever, one and inseparable, and that those stars will burn with glory when the name of Spaln is a by- word of contempt and a hiss to teach her that those white bands of Old_Glory are emblem- atic of the white bands of purity and justice that bind us to the throne of God, and that the red of Old Glory is emblematic of the power of the conquering Christ who is opposed To'all savagery. It fight we must fet us unite all energies into a stream that will sweep from Cuba every vestige of Spanish authority and set the Queen Regent on her own throné with such a thud that she will awake to the 1%al- ization that civhlization has been born- into the world and grown into a strong man, not to De trified with. Let us sweep the footprints of the Queen and baby King from the sacred sle. VOLUNTEER COMPANIES Firemen and Independents Want to Fight for the Country.

It is not very creditable to say that the 4200 National Guardsmen are ready at a | moment’s notice to take the field, and at | the same time assert that 2300 of that number are not provided with serviceable rifles. There is, however, a hope that this difficulty may be overcome. When | the Tuz\rdsmen are called for duty they | will haye to be mustered into the service | of the United States, and then it will be- come the duty of Uncle Sam to provide the men with suitable weapons. THE EMERGENCY ROLLS. The emergency rolls of the First Regl- ment of Infantry were opened last Mon- day at both armories and were kept open on the drill night of each company. The applications for enrollment were greater than was expected for the first week. A large number of individuals visited the | armories each night, many of them be- ing men who never hefore had been con- nected with the guard; while their names and residences were taken the preference was given to ex-members of the guard. Each company has received applications from ex-members who are at present out | of the clty. They express a_willingness to come here and enlist as soon as noti- fied either by letter, telegram or tele- phone. By means of the emergency roll the companies will have no difficuity in | recruiting up to the full strength, which is_103 rank and file. Not only has this plan been adopted in the local regiment, but the idea has been carried out by the guard throughout the | State, and from reports received here it | is apparent that there will be more appli- cations than will fill the rolls.
