The Ambulance Fund Closed.
On last Tuesday moininsr. when Tho
Tribune learned that an effort was he

Itirg desired bv the Thliteenth iegl

and draw on us for the pi Ice This lie
did nnd latei word camp that the
ambulance, propotly letteted with the
Thirteenth's n line would be delivered
at ait. (lietn.i Saturday night The
ambulance, dellveied. cost $340 and foi
this sum we will today send a check
to the Anthracite Wagon company of
llanishurg
Thero remained to piovide bj addi
tional subscription lor a team of hotse.s
and the neccsajv harness. Jt was
thought originally that $500 would cov
er all these Items, the estimated price
quoted on the ambulance being $"00.
Rut competitive bidding later lalsed
this price and .since to await
tho construction of another ambulance
vould Involve a considerable delay,
during which time the bovs In camp
would be deprived of ambulance facil
ities either In case of sltknes.s or for
the transportation of supplies, it was
deemed best to pay the extra $10. The
ambulance, therefore, will reach camp
tonight, nnd into Colonel Coursen's
hands will bo placed tho remainder of
The Trifoun fund, which with yester
day's contributions nmounm to $510 71,
If more than this shall be needed by

incut Colonel Cours.cn will be assured
that tho citizens of Setnnton will fttt
nlMi It upon ids ietiue.st.
We take this occasion on behalf of
tho regiment to thank the donors of
this timely fund. It Is a most thought
ful monument to their patriotism and
public spirit.

The 11 Icltest Patriotism.
The disposition of some persons
severely to censuie those guatdsmen
who deem It to bo their eluti to jemoin
at homo and protect dopendent rela
tives or families should be checked. It
is to tho credit of Governor Hastings
and other oiilclals In command of
intuitu fences that they have sttongly
emphasized this duty when It is u con
scientious duty nnd not an excuse born
of fear.

Miength of the regular nttny, soon to

seen that there Is no dearth of willing
and eager candidates for field service;
candidates who can go without con
demning to want aged patents, wives,
children or helpless blood relutlvos.
hot us be Just concerning this matter.
The honor of the nation Is not to be
promoted by unwilling service In Its
military tanks or by service which Is
dictated hy a false sense of pride or
shame at the expense of tho unpro
tected. Since this is pre-eminently ft
war for humanity let humanity at
home be considered as well as human
ity In Cuba. If a time should como
when theie will be real need of the ser
vices of heads of families lacking In
dependent suppott, the patriotism of
our people will not be found wanting.
To a man our population would re
spond, in that gravo crisis heroically
Ignotlng the question of cost.
At the same time. It would be the
highest patriotism for those citizens
who have means to provide by con
certed effort for the dependent fam
ilies of guardsmen eager to enlist, thus
saving to the nation the services of
men who are skilled in military tac
tics and who would not need the long
piellmlnnry training necessary to ren

If Hnsllsh public opinion Is veering
over to the support of Spain It must
bo liecause Spain is playing iho sym
pathy lackct. That works for n time
but In these cold days It is a poor
basis to build on.
Judging fiom the reports of the In
dian uprising on the Ohio nnd Illinois
frontier by the Washington correspond
ent of a Mndrld newspaper, the illit
eracy of Spain Is not entirely conllned
to the rnahses.
'Authorities disagree nt lo whether It
should be called the Spanlsh-Ainerlcnn

TLllS, Washington, D. c, April ST. The
nresldenl's plan of campaign Is assum
ing definite form. Tt leceives the cm
Ihatlc approval of nil who arc most
familiar with the situation in Cuba.
The only adverse criticism comes ftom
Impatient nrmv and navy ofllcers, who
seek malnlv the opportunity for mili
tary provves and glory. With Lieu
tenant Geiieral Schofleld, retired, as
adviser, the president 's adopting
mensurps to accomplish the freedom of
Cuba In a way which will be best for
ihe Cubans, and which will minimize
the cost of life for this country, in
army and naval circles the desire Is
to go In with soldiers nnd ships and,
bv a rapid succession ot engagements,
'clean out" the Spanish. This Is not to
bo the programme. Cubans are tn be
helped to achieve their Independence.
The measuie of that help will be in nc
cordanc with the needs, ns the cam
paign develops.
Two very excellent reasons Inspire
the president He believes the Cubans
will enter upon self government in much
more eniclont form if they are inspired
to exerc ise their utmost endeavors to
obtain their political freedom. Ho be
lieves the republic of Cuba will take
n better position ntnong th nations if
it establishes Ittelf by dilvlugout Spain
with tho help of the United States than
It this government should occupy the
island, eject Spain and then turn the
government ovet to the Cub ins with
their fteedom won for them. If Cubans
can accomplish the expulsion of the
Spanish, with the United States assist
ing, the president believes thev should
bo allowed the oppoitun'ty to do it.
The president s second reason is the
natural and laudable deslte to fre
Cuba without the sacrifice of any more
American lives than may bo absolutely
nicess.ii j.
cuuans plfasi:d.
The plan of compalgn pleases the Cu
lians. It is pronounced eminently wle
by tho American consuls who under
stanel the conditions. s it comes to
be understood, it will gratify allAmerl
cans, except, pet haps, a few ntdent mil
itary people who are spoiling for actual
fighting. The plan does not contem
plate any lack of vigor There will be
no hesitation or procrastination. The
wnr vvill be pushed. But It will be con
ducted on the principle that the Cubans
shall be encouraged to help themselves,
rather than their battles shall be en
tirely fought lor them hy American

on Our Conduct of Ihe War.
Rojton, Apill !? Piofessor D. G
Lyon, of the Semetlc department of
Harvard universltv, In the course ot a
leetute on the Jewish vvnis. this morn
ing, declared that the seizure of ships
by the United States was nothing less
than pliacy. Going on to consider the
present wnr. he said.
"We have seen nn example of what
the war bplrlt will do. In congress
there was a war spirit. The men of
peace were can led along by the others

LETTER TO SAGASTA SEIZED.
Snlil to Ilnro Contained 'fronton
able InlorttiRtloit.
Wnrhlngton. V. C, Apill 21 The
most impoitant military seizure effect
ed by tho Postofilce depot tmont since
tho declaration of vvnt between this
country and Spain was made yester
day afternoon when a letter addressed
to 'VSenor Sagnsta, .Madrid, Spain," was
taken from the mail, by order of the
postmaster general. Thi letter was
wiltttn and signed by a woman. It
came ftom Santa Cruz, Cal.. at which
place It was posted a little ovrta week
ngo
t'pon being opened the letter wns
found to be of n most treasonable nnd
startling chaiacter. It gave a detailed
account of the condition of our western
const defence', w here eiur guns nnd mor
tar batteries nnd harbor mines nie
located, where It would be dangerous
to land, nnd how these dangers could
be nvolded.
The writer went on to say that Spain
had many sympathizers In this coun
try, particularly in California, who
wished for her success In tho wnr, and
that they would do ever thing In their
power to help Spain.
The writer advised Senoi Sngnstn. not
to permit an attack on San Francisco,
but to select Slontercy.whlch wns poor
ly guarded and wheio n largo force
could easily get ashi'i". At this place
the writer said the-" .verp no batteries
or fortifications wnnhv of the nume
In closing her lPtnarkable communi
cation the woman Informed Premier
Sagnsta that. If the Spanish govern
ment would follow bet suggestions nnd
order an attack upon the United Stutes
on the Paclllc coast at Monteiotv.
Spain woulil llnd plent of aid from her
sympathizer In California, who would
lend her material niel.
The postmastei general, on learning
the contents of the letter, sent for one
of lils best Insppctots and turned the
documents over to him Later in the
day General G. D. Melklejohn, the as
sistant secietaiy of war, was sum
moned to the Postnfllcp department,
where he held a long conference with
one of the postofilce oiilclals ns to the
best course to puisne in icgaitl to the
letter. The utmost secreiv is main
tained at both of the departments as
to the nature of the action decided
upon.
It Is understood that the woman who
vvioto tho letter to Sagnsta vvill at once
be arrested, and other arrests In Cali
fornia will follow. It Is considered by
the federal ollkluls who have charge of
the matter that it is more than a coin
cidence that a few dnvs after this let
ter to Sagasta was wiitten the Cali
fornia powder woiks nt Santa Cruz
should have been mysterlouslj ex
ploded. For some time the officials of the
Wnr department have regarded with
