A besuUlui and touching (lory of

It seems that the more intelligent

tic eqtudron Sampson will get $40,000
of the prise money earned by the fleet
during the war. Part of this ahould
go to the men who advanced him to
the position over the beads of Schley,
Watson and other naval heroes who
were ahead of him in everything ex
cept ‘'political pull." The odium which
they have brought upon themselves
ought to be'compensated for io some
way .—Chattanooga News.
Tho people of Ibis country coulid
not understand why Samson should
have been placed in command of the
Atlantic Squadron over Schley, al
though the fatter outranked him. It
appears, however, that Sampson is a
cofofa of Mr/Long, the Secretary of
the Navy, and this fad accounts for
"the milk in the cocoanut." This is
additional proof that politics and fa
voritism has shaped the conduct of
tho war.—New Orleans States.

him and tear him to pieces; just co

perous and has money he can't keep
friends off with a ball bat. The mo

is gone he is not only snubbed by bis
