A COLOSSAL TASK.
Whatever may be the object in
withholding information in regard
to the transports loaded with troops
it is ceitain that the way has been
opened tor the landing of troops in j
Eastern Cuba. Operations of the
navy have not been confined to San
tiago. Admiral Sampson is practic- j
ally in control of Guantanauio bay,
to the east of Santiago, which will ,
give shelter to all our war tleets and
also afford a landing place for a part
of Shafter's army.
Some days ago a special dispatch
was sent from Berlin to the New
York Herald and other papers, giv
ing views of alleged German mili
tary experts on the invasion of Cuba.
mi e ,i:,.. .:.,,.

character, the critics holding that the i
laumug oi a large army m uuuii as
a work of too great difficulty to be
mastered by officers In command of
our armies. The case of Russian
maneuvers on the Black sea in 1897
was cited as an illustration of what n
colossal task General Shafter has un
dertaken. In this Russian case
(which we are told was theoretically
the most successful attempt ever
made in modern times by a fleet to
land large bodies of troops in the j
face of an enemy), each squadron
succeeded in landing only 8,000
troops in three days. This, it is
claimed, is a small matter when ':om
pared with what the Americans pro
pose. The German writer seems to be
lieve that the Americans are going at
this matter of transporting and land
ing troops in a haphazard manner.
The ver' opposite is true. The gov
ernment has succeeded in masking
the real movements of the transports.
It flias also succeeded in confusing
the Spaniards as to the point of land
ing. Never has so little been pub
lished as to any military expedition J
in this country ns that under com
mand of General Shafter. The peo
ple know that the troops are the best
in our army, and that they arc on
the transports. The Spaniards know
that much, but it may be assumed
that Goiiornl Miles and Admiral
Sampson know a good deal more.
The operations of the navy indi
cate that there haw been foresight in
the selection of a landing place, am)
that whon all things arc ready the
expedition will land. There will bo
no Spanish navy to oppose, and the
invaders will meet no Spanish army
on shore capable of making success
ful resistance. Tho case nlll not bo
like that of 1807 on the Black sen,
but more like that of 1851 on the
hub iea, when Franco and Great
! Britain landed o7,000 troop; in tlio
, Crimea in live days. The American
j people understand ly this time that
I the view of the cmbitono critics that
the landing of an army is only a
matter of two or throe hours is not
correct.
W'c are likely to have a little mis
understanding with the Kaiser over
, tnc L;uirones and Carolines, but it is
probable that we can convince him
of his error if he has committed one.
In the meantime there is no reason '
wh' we should ct mad at the Kaiser. .
Our indignation can be put to better ,
use elsewhere. There, will be ample !
time. for the settling of small disputes !
when the blr one is disposed of. j
Manila had, when the war broke !
out, 300,000 population, of which j
50,000 were Chinese, .;,000 conti-J
ncntal European, !500 British island- j
ers, and three Americans. We are ,
left to guess as to the nationality of I
the remainder of the people, and
this is the best they are able to do
themselves. !
The people who expected that the
ected that the
wjipsi,,;
United States would
three weeks are not different from !
the people who expected to crush
the southern rebellion in a month.
They are always with us.
