The English-Spoaking. Peoples Are the Kings of the World. Robert G. Ingersoll says in the Los Angeles Times: This isthe first war, so faras I know, in the history of the world, that has been waged solely in the interest of humanity ; the only war born of pity, of sympathy, and for that reason I have taken a deep interest in it,and I must say that I was greatly’ astonished by the victory of Admiral Dewey in Manila bay. I think it one of the most wonderful in the history .of the world, and J think all that Dewey has done shows clearly that he isa man of thought, courage and of genius. So, too, the victory over the fleet of Cervera by Commodore Schley is one of the most marvelous, and the most brilliant precision with which everything was done is tomy mind astonishing. Neither should we forget Wainwright’s heroic exploit, as commander of. the Gloucester, by which he demonstrated * that torpedo destroyers have no terror fora yacht manned by American pluck. Manila bay and Santiago both are surpassiugly wonderful. There are no words with which to describe such deeds—deeds that leap like flames above the clouds and glorify the whole heavens. ; : The Spanish have shown in this contest that they possess courage, and they have displayed what you might cali the heroism of desperation, but the Anglo-Saxon have courage and coolness —courage that is the absolute servant o intelligence, The Anglo-Saxon has a fixedness of purpose that is never interfered with by feeling; he does not become enraged—he becomes firm, unyielding, his mind is absolutely made up, clasped, locked, and he carries out his will. With the Spaniard it is excitement, nervousness; he becomes frantic, I think this war has shown the superjority, not simply of our ships, or our armor or our guns, but the superiority of our men, of our officers, of our gunners. The courage of our army about Santiago was splendid, the steadiness and bravery of the volunteers magnificent. I think that what has already been done has given us the admiration of the civilized world. T hope that the good feeling now existing between Eugland and the United States may be eternal. In other words, I hope it will be to the interests of both to be friends. I think the Englishspeaking peoples are to rule this world; they are the. kings of invention,of manufactures, of commerce, of administration, and they have a higher conception of human liberty than any otherpeople. Of course they are not entirely free; they still have some of the rags and tatters and ravelings.of superstition ; but they are tatters,and they are rags, and they are ravelings, and the people know it. And, beside all this, the English language holds the greatest literature of the world. Se A Dramatic Treat. “Ponoenex night “The Maine” will receive an excellent production at the theater. Everything is in readiness. The scenery is ali in place and no pains bave been spared to give our theater goers a real dramatic treat. Francis Boggs will play the hero, and his scenes with William Ashburn (who makes an excellent stage villain) are very exciting. Mrs. Boggs, Miss Hicks and Miss Lulu Marsh all play importaut roles and will contribute much to the success of the play.
