Elaborate and impressive as
they were, the services at Arling
ton over the bodies of l. I of those
who perished in the Maine disas
ter was but a fitting tribute to
men whose1 memories will be
cherished as those of heroes.
The explosion which wrecked
the Maine, and sent L'C; brave
souls to eternity, was one of those
shots hen l-d round the world.
Following fast iu ils wake, hur
ried by its reverberations, came
the war with Spain, by which the
shackles of governmental tyranny
were struck from Cuba, Puerto
Rico, and the Philippines. The
progress of liberty was acceler
ated, aud the blessings of free
government have been, or will lie,
brought to countless millions of
people whose development was
retarded, whose oporttiuitios
were restricted, aud whose pence
and happiness were nullified by
the ma! -administration, in this
progressive age, of a medieval
government. But for the Maine
disaster and the sacrifices of
American seamen, the West In
dies and tin Philippines might
bo languishing as they languish
ed for cent ur'ios. It was that
terrible explosion, with the
screams and means of the dying,
which brought the matter to is
sue, and made the interference
of ibis nation iu the affairs of
Spain imperative. It is not,
therefore, fatuous to accredit
these men, who went too soon in
to the eternity of the future, with
the achievements that followed
fast upon their taking-oii. They
died'as martyr heroes in liberty's
cause1, aud it is tit and proper
that a nation should honor their
memories - tlr.it they should be
laid to their final rest with the
other heroes of u liberty-loving
nation. They are buried in hal
lowed grouud. Round about
theni are the graves of those
whose names are interwoven with
the nation's history, and whose
lives have boon given iu the na
tion's service. The fresh mounds
in Arlington will give that beauti
ful city of the dead added sacred
ness, and in the future the
thought of those who regard the
Stars and Stripes as the dearly
bought emblem of absolute liber
ty whether they be here, in Cu
ba, Puerto .Rico or the Philip
pines will involuntarily turn to
Arlington, and a silent prayer
will ascend to the . Judge of our
destinies for "The Maine Dead."
