. Volunteer Yictory.
The American volunteer liaa certain
ly made a most imprtssive- bow in our
ne.v theater I u the Far East. With
the except ioti of the Fourteenth Infan
try unci the Sixth artillery, the regulars
were not engaged in the battle which
raged arotuul .iMaiiTlft'Saturday ' night
und Sumlffy.' I was fought and won
by volunteers in a manner which will
open the eyes of Europe and Asia, to
the real merit- of the American soldier.
In ail , her. Jong years of contention
with' rebellious islaudeas, Spain has
nt-ver fought, much' less gained, so sig
n ,la battle. Eugland herself has not
made her presence felt as quickly nor
us effectively In the new lands which
site has overrun.; . More than ten years
of campaigning and preparation
elapsed between Chinese Gordon's fall,
and Sirdar ; Kitchener's rise; and the
troops which slew and routed . the
Dervishes at Khartoum were ' the
ilower'.bf ' Brstisn' arrriies Thiired to the
hurdships of tropical life and re en
forced by a multitude of native allies
who fought the fanatics in their own
way and with their own weapons., -t: .
The performance- of the,- American
volunteer troops in the Philippines is
extraordinary, measured by any stand
ard or any precedeut. " The attack of
the hostile natives was sudden, if not
unexpected.; More' than' half the Fil;
ipiuos were armed with Mauser or
Remington riilesViu trenched in defen?
cibie redoubts and trained in past con
flicts with the armies of Spain. There
seemstto have; beep , no lack of ammu
nition among the riflemen of Luzon,
for the official, dispatches relate that'
the "insurgents fired great quantities'
of cartridges." There was' neither hes
itation nor doubt in the conduct of the
Americans, and the brief reports ' of
General Otis and Admiral' Dewey cel
ebrate the soldierly demeanor of the
volunteers." ;-' , ".""','.',. z : '''
Tlie West Is doubly-- proud of the
achievements 'of our army'in the Phil
ippinesi.C With the exception of Penn
sylvatiitb.every volunteer regiment en
gaged htiils 'frrt?T' a Western state., Cal-ilorni.-it
Washington, Idaho,- Colorado,
Nebraska, South Dakota and Montana '
were represented.' The list of dead and
wounded prove that every regiment
iid its duty. The chapter enacted Tat

will lie located. , The rock that will be
blasted off of this point to set the mill
will be used for riprapping the grade

and the work will erst, $7,000, In a
