Brave American Mother Letters on War and Honor
The Chicago Tribune reproduces a letter from Mrs Helen Henrotin urging peace and a response from Mrs Shillington, mother of Harry Shillington, who died on the Maine. She says her son’s death demands honor and atonement, not revenge, and that Cuba’s civilians suffer while the nation faces war. She reflects on duty, the Navy, and protecting the country’s flag.

Land and Taxes Amid Mountains and Rivers
An exchange remarks on a land of high mountains and high taxes, low valleys and low wages, big crooked rivers and big crooked statesmen, big pumpkins and big men with pumpkin heads. It mentions silver streams, pious politicians, roaring cataracts, orators, fast trains, horses, and a thriving, restless society full of sharp lawyers and sharp financiers.
