THE CAMPAIGN' IX Ct'BA.
The Cuban chief has beaten Spain'
greatest general. So much la ma le clear
by the new from the "ever-faithful Isle."
General Campoa recently took the field In
person against the rehela. He had ten
men to their one, besides vast superiority
In equipment and supplies. He planned
rhiewd strategy, by which he meant
either to capture the whole Insurgent
army, or to drive It Into the swamps ot
the Zapata Peninsula, where It icuM
easily be kept harmless. He has m.e
been forced to retreat, to fortify his
camps against attack, ami to Impress Into
his service, for enforced military duty.j

all around him. At present General Cam
pos aeems to be standing at bay. f,ar
fully awaiting an attack, and wondering
whether the next blow will fall upon him
or upon Matanxas or Havana.
Not long
ago he was planning to put a line ot!
soldiers clear across the Island and march
them eastward, sweeping the rebels Into
the aea at Cape Mays! Now he is hop
ing the rebels will not march westward
It like manner and drive him Into the tea
at Cape San Antonio. j
The war has been In progress less than i
a year. General Campos has iw.w) vet-1
teran troops at his command, with a;
nation of K.DUu.Css) at his back. The rebel j
army numbers about lo.OAi, with about :
half a million to draw
upon.
The total
population of Cuba is only about l.oW.'iw,
half berig In garrisoned cities under j
Spanish guard, an.) not more thn rn. I

threfore, loS.OW soldiers to suppress tnei
revolt of 5W.0W) or S.v.(:o men. women and
children; as many soldiers, that is. as
there are men in the whole Insurgent
population, combatant or non-combatant.
and ten times as many as the actual rebel'
army. Yet they have been steadily los-i
Ing ground. Today the Insurgents hold
more than half the island, and are over
running more than half the remainder.
Draw a line across the map of the island
at Santa Cly.ra, from the mouth of the
Sagua ri er to Point de. San Juan. All
east of that-to-wit. half of the province i
of Santa Clara and all of Putrle Principe
and Santiago de Cuba Is In th- hands otj
the rebels, with the exception of less than'
a score of garrison towns and seaports. '
Draw another line across, from Matanxas!
to the Bay of Brca. and the territory be-j
tween It and the former to-wlt, the resti
of Santa Clara and nine-tenths of Matan
ras is the prestnt scene of war. The:
rest of the Island, west of Matanxas. com-'

ine insurgents may invaue u at a.iy time.
and filibusters from Mexico may land ui

tense that there is no war In Cuba, but j
merely some desultory rioting. There Is
war, civil war, fully as much as there was
In this country thirty odd years a?o, the
existence of which Spain waa so quick
to recognize; and we are inclined to think
the Insurgents have r.ow far better prom
ise of success than the Confederates in
this country ever had.

During the year there wes expended to
ward additional ships i:tC8.:u SS, and
there can be no manner of doubt but that
the money was well expended. It Is I
great pity that so little of It was expend
ed at navy yards, for. with property
valued at almost K-T.itv.iW at the various
stations, it Is a waste of capital to send
all the work to private contractors. Were
the navy department a private corpora'
lion, and proceeding after this manner,
any court in (he country would appoint
a receiver to manage Its affair within
twenty-four hours It cost no less than
U to pay the salaries ot the officers
who are detailed for duty In yards.
It Is an Interesting question when ten
der of a silver coin can be refused by
reason of abrasion. The question was
brought before the supreme court of the
I'nlted States In a case involving the re-
! fusal of a ten-cent piece offered In pay
ment of car fare on a street railroad In
Jersey City. The conductor refused the
coin when tendered because he thought
It was not worth par. having been worn
by abrasion while In circulation. The
passenger was ejected from the car and
I brought suit for damages. He recovered
a judgment, which was afflrmed by the
supreme court of New Jersey, and this
Judgment has been affirmed by the su-
I preme court of the I'nlted States In an
I affirming the judgment Chief Justice
Fuller referred to the law regulating the
passage of defaced and abraded coins,
and declared that there was no provision
against the passage of silver coins which
were abraded only by circulation, and that
they were a legal tender as long as they
bore the semblance of the coin.

THE roETS ON AR.
New York Herald.
The Rev. Lyman Whllney Allen, of New
ark. N. J., author of the epic poem.
"Abraham Lincoln." which was awarded
the H.i) prize by the Herald's committee
of Judges ln the recent literary cont.-sl.
replies today to the sonnet of William
Watson.
Mr. Watson, who is recanhd as a pos
sible successor to Lord Tennyson ns Poet
Laureate of England, published the fol
lowing appeal for peace between the two
countries on Monday:
O, towering daughter. Titan of Ihe West.
Behind a thousand leagues of foam se
cure. Thou tow-ard whom our Inmost heart Is
pure
Of ill Intent although thou threat, n st
With most untlllal hand thy mother's
breast;
Not for one breathing space may earth
endure
The thought of war's Intolerable cure
For such vague pains as vex today thy
rest.
But if thou hast more strength than thou
canst spend,
In tasks of peace, and flnd'st h r yoke
too tame.
Help us to smite the cruel, to liefrb nd
The succories, and put the fa se to
shame.
So shall the ages laud thee and thy
name
Be lovely among nations to the end.
Mr. Watson's appeal for je-ace was ca
bled to this country and published In s-v-eral
newspapers, Including the Ibruld.
Mr. Allen felt Inspired to make Immediate
response. His peace note comes to the
Herald over the signature "Hangamon,"
which. It will be remembered, was his
vague identification wh-n the Herald pub
lished the list of successful competitors In
Its contest.
"Sangamon's" sonnet Is as foi' , -s:
O royal Mother, Empress of the i. st'
Whose, ancient sceptre rules o'er iaie:
and sea.
Thy fair undowered daughter greeteth
thee.
The centurled bride of Freedom, long re
leased From filial ties and bound by Nature's
priest
To her great lord to serve hlin and to
te
Tho nourlsher and guardian of the free.
Hath seen her state for nobler ends in
creased Thlnk'st thou she loveth war, when she
hath drained
So late her cup of sorrow? Yet when call
The sons of Freedom all her blood is
fire.
Respect. Just mother what she hath main
tained. And thou and she together shall fore

des.'re

Mr. Allen I the great grandson of the
revolutionary hero, Col. Anthony Thorn
ton, of Virginia. His first poem was pub
lished seventeen year ago. Since then
he ha contributed several verses, and his
effort have been greeted wllh conddera
ble success. The hymn entitled "The
Coming of HI Feet" ha established
itelf In popular favor. "Abraham I, In
coin," however, was his most ambitious
effort.
