SAYS U.S. IS UNSTOPPABLE. SPANISH-AMERICAN WAR OUTCOME CELEBRATED. VICTORY IN 100 DAYS.

President Alfred Macalister congratulated the American people and their response to the call to arms as North and South joined together to defeat Spain, saying that Spain is no longer a power, and the United States stands as the strongest nation in the western hemisphere. The"splendid little war" saw the U.S. Navy defeat the Spanish fleet in a mere few hours. Not one American life was lost in that skirmish, proving what Macalister says is "testament to the glory and perseverance of America."

Overall only 300 Americans lost their lives in the war, while the other side reported thousands of dead at the hands of our brave boys. He especially made mention of Colonel Thaddeus Waxman and his Rough Riders, the cavalry troop that took San Juan Hill in Guarma, becoming a national hero in the process.
