By reason of their numbers (so small when compared with those
developed by the greater needs of the Civil and World wars) the
Spanish war veterans do not seem to have been accorded a just need
of praise. In reality, however, they have been, for all who think of the
matter at all know that the same spirit of true patriotism was manifested
by them, and as fully as that shown in the days of the Civil
war. They were prepared to go to the end, if need be, to uphold all
that this nation stands for, and they may rest assured that, though
their numbers be few, the place of the Spanish war veterans "among
the patriotic organizations of the United States is a definite and'
honorable one.
