PUBLISH MY LETTER
So That XVomen May Know

Such is the request of Mrs. L.
M. Haynes, Spriengfield, Mo
(General delivery). A part of
Mrs. Haynes’ letter reads as .fol¬
lows: “1 wrote to you in May,

Four and a half bottles of Pe

-
farmers to consider the rumors
of war that now float upon the
air, and what would be the effect
upon their industry of a general
war of devastation. In such a
contingency those who produce
food, vegetable or animal would
profit by the malignant condi¬
tion. At the same time facto j
ries, except those which produce
munitions of the devastation,
would languish and those whose
stock in trade is raw material,
woufd feel like going to war
themselves. A very pertinent
question for the Southern far¬
mer to ask himself is what would
be the result if a great European
war should catch me with a big
crop of cotton and very little of
auything else on hand? Such a
war would cut down the de

War is the last resort for the
settlement of all questions in
dispute between the different
nations of the earth.
Earnest effort should always
be made to settle by peaceable
means and differences that may
arise, before referring the mat¬
ter to the arbitrament of the
sword.
With this view of the situa¬
tion in mind, the Star makes
the following demands upon
Spam for reparation and satis¬
faction for the loss of he bat¬
tleship Maine, in Havana har¬
bor, and the lives of the 2G8 of¬
ficers and men who were killed
in the explosion •
1st. The freedom of Cuba.
2d An apology from the Span¬
ish government.
3d A salute of the American
in Havana harbor by the guns
of Morro castle.
4th. A money indemnity of
$25,000,000 to pay for the
erty destroyed, and to pension
the families of the men on
board the ill fated vessel,
double amount going to the faiu
lies of those who were killed.
If these demands are not prom
ptly complied with, then we
will ‘‘set the dogs of war-a

always, that the court of in¬
