To the best of its abi.'ity the United States is giving considerate attention to the many military pris oners falling into its hands. In no previous war in history have captives been so promptly cared for and ren dered comfortable. The action of the government marks a new era in Tegard to an enemy forced to sur render. Savages slaughter prisoners not only for revenge, but to secure personal ' trophies. Even among na tions called civilized the practice has been ,to deal harshly with those whom they disarm. Prisoners have been huddled anywhere, fed when convenient, and sent to insanitary camps. More or less of vindiciive ness has entered into the matter. But the United States takes the highest possible ground in disposing of the men whom it captures. The first point looked after is that they shall harm no citizen of ours until duly exchanged. Tbey are held under safe restraint to that extent. Beyond that they are well fed, fur nished with decent garments, and placed in healthful camps. They are protected from any form of hu miliation and the rank of officers is respected, a form of courtesy which every soldier desires and appreci ates. It must be confessed that among countries esteemed to be enlightened Spain has hitherto been one of the worst offenders in disposing of pris oners. Colonial wars have hardened the Spanish heart, neven. too merci ful in anj form of warfare. Insur gents in the colonies have been sub jected to the death ponalty, even when wounded or sick in hospitals. Thoie who escaped death were taken to noisome dungeons or the terrible prisons on the African coast. An average Spanish prison is a mediae val horrcr. How a large body of American prisoners would have fared has not been tested. But for some time Lieut. Hobson and his com pan ions were placed where they re strained the fire of the fleet. Their Jocation,-9iiggesteii-that they were used, as a shield, and the Spanish government would have been called to account if it had continued this policy. The delay in exchanging Hobson showed a stiff-necked dispo sition end a reluctance to depart from the old Spanish idea that one of the duties of war is to make cap lives miserable. Toral's capitulated forces are held under special and unusual conditions. They are to be sent to Spain at the cost of the United States for trans portation and subsistence during the voyage. This is mercy tempered with generosity; but the arrange ment is to be commended from every point of view. "We should be compelled to feed them in any case to the United States. The terms given will have a good effect upon other Spanish troops in Cuba. Manv are conscripts who despaired of see ing their native country again. Ser- "vice in the colonies has been almost . equivalent lo permanent exile, often cut short by fatal disease.' Spain 'exacts much of its soldiers and gives little in return. Probably the terms granted Toral's forces will be more acceptable to them than to the Madrid authorities, but they are in line with their wishes, They will see their kindred again, and be put to better use than to die trenches of Santiago. A military banquet, attended by the officers of both armies, followed the surrender at Santiago. If the Spaniards think tbey can beat us at after-dinner speaking, they are again laboring under a misapprehension. An old . wreck in Santiago harbor is that of a ship that took part in the Spanish armada against England. It may be remarked of the Spanish ar mada against America thai none got away. The Discovery of the Day. Aug' J. Bogel, the leading druggist of Shreveport, La., says: '-Dr. King's New Discovery is the only thing that cares my cough, and it is the best seller I haye." J. F. Campbell, merchant of Saffordj Ariz., writes: Dr. King's New Discovery is all that is claimed for it; it never fails, and ia a sure cure for con sumption, coughs and colds. I cannot say enough for Its merits." Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, Colds and Coughs is not an experiment. It has been tried for a q darter of a century, and today stands at the head. It never dieappoints. Trial bottles free at Blake ley & Houghton's. There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all othe diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great mauy years doctors pronounced it a local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly, failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proyen catarrh tobe a constitutional disease, and there fore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrah Care, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional core on the market. It is taken internally in doses from ten drops to a teasDOonful.
