Chapter XXIX
THE SPANISH-AMERICAN AND PHILIPPINE WARS
Pgs. 853-859


SPANISH-AMERICAN WAR
     The cause of the Spanish-American War was the long-continued cruelties 
and injustice of the Spanish rule in Cuba.  The sympathies of the American 
people had been for many years aroused in behalf of the Cubans, but never 
found adequate expression until the last struggle for independence began. 
Negotiations were pending in 1897 to find if some peaceable way could not be 
found out of the terrible conditions which existed in the unhappy island. 
While these efforts were being made in behalf of peace and humanity the 
destruction of the U. S. cruiser "Maine," in Havana harbor, February 15, 
1898, lit the spark of war throughout the country and started a warlike 
furor which nothing could withstand.
     War was declared and the tremendous energies of seventy millions of 
people were put in action to free Cuba from Spanish rule.  The momentous 
events of the year 1898 constitute such recent history that it is needless 
to recount them here.  Spain was vanquished.
     As the war of the Rebellion, Washington County did her part well, so in 
the Spanish-American war and the Philippine war which was a heritage from 
the struggle for Cuban independence, Washington County did her full duty.
     Two companies, namely, "D" and "E" of the Seventh Ohio infantry, were 
raised in this county.  In addition to these a large number of men were 
recruited in this county for the United States hospital service and a number 
of men from this county enlisted in other organizations and served during 
the Cuban war and in the Philippines.
     We give herewith the full company rolls of the two companies above 
named, furnished by Gen. George R. Gyger, Adjutant General of Ohio.  We made 
an effort to ascertain the names of the others and have obtained the names 
of a few of the soldiers who enlisted in other organizations, which were 
added hereto.
     The following is a list of names of members of Company D, Seventh Reg., 
O. V. I., in the war with Spain, recruited at Lower Salem, Washington 
County, Ohio, for two years' service.  This company was mustered into the 
United States service Many 13, 1898, at Columbus, Ohio; mustered out 
November 6, 1898, at Columbus, Ohio.
     The place of residence at the date of enlistment is given and in some 
cases the soldier was not a resident of the county.
     From the head of the list down to and including Albert Wilson, the date 
of entering the service is given as April 25, 1898.  The latter part of the 
list contains names of recruits who entered the company under the second 
call, the date of entering the service being given opposite each name.
     Where the date of discharge is not specifically stated opposite the 
name, the soldier was mustered out with the company.

PHILIPPNE WAR
     Hostilities at the beginning of the Spanish-American war were 
inaugurated by Admiral Dewey when he sailed into Manila Bay, May 1, 1898, 
and engaged the Spanish fleet ranged in line of battle off Cavite.  This 
engagement had been anticipated for some weeks and the newspapers had been 
rife with comments comparing the two fleets and their armaments and 
speculating as to the probable outcome of a contest between forces so evenly 
matched.  Dewey had on the whole a stronger fleet, as it was supposed, but 
to offset this it was claimed that the Spaniards had the backing of strong 
fortification armed with heavy guns.  The American fleet, however, destroyed 
the Spanish ships one after the other, and in the short space of a few hours 
what was a formidable and powerful naval force was wrecked and sunk.  Dewey 
was now master of the Bay of Manila, but in his strength, lay his weakness. 
He had no land forces to follow up his advantages and hold what he had 
conquered, as by all the rules of war he was entitled to do.  The news of 
his great victory set the country wild with enthusiasm and rejoicing. 
Troops were at once started to his relief, the voyage requiring several 
weeks, causing great delay.  Meanwhile a native by the name of Aguinaldo 
appeared.  He had been in hiding at Hong Kong, China.  He asked the 
privilege of going ashore and doing something against the common foe, the 
Spaniard.  This he was allowed to do and a little later on was allowed to 
take the Spanish arms stored in the arsenal at Cavite and arm his followers 
with them.  This was where Dewey made his great mistake, as he afterward 
stated before a Senate committee.  After the surrender of the island and 
after they had been formally ceded to the United States by Spain, Aguinaldo 
and his followers refused to recognize the sovereignty of the United States 
and waged war against the government to drive our forces from the Islands. 
The government had no choice but to say where the fortunes of war had placed 
our victorious flag.  If we had abandoned the islands, other powers, who 
were watching our movements, would have stepped into the reap of advantages 
of our victory.  Upon the departure of our troops, anarchy would have 
reigned supreme.  The warring factions of a semi-barbarous people would have 
rendered business and trade impossible and would have jeopardized the lives 
and property of Americans and all foreigners.  This was the opinion of the 
best judges of the situation and it was but the act of good statesmanship to 
decide to maintain the supremacy of the American Flag and hold the country. 
Hence, the so-called, Philippine War.  It was waged by our government 
vigorously and successfully.  Although waged against a barbarous foe where 
it was difficult to observe all the rules of civilized warfare, yet on the 
whole the war was conducted in a humane manner.  As General Sherman said 
"war is hell," so in this case the hardships and suffering, although 
terrible while it lasted, could not have been softened or ameliorated, to 
any great extent, and still have resulted in success.  It was the very 
hardness and cruelty of the war which hastened its close.  It was not of our 
seeking but one in, we fought it to a successful close.
     Washington County had a good many soldiers in various organizations 
serving in the Philippines, but after the close of the Spanish-American War, 
by the Treaty of Paris, the government did not call upon the States for 
volunteers, as was the case at first, but called for United States 
volunteers.  So that the men form this county were scattered throughout the 
army.  It has been difficult to gather these names for the roll of this 
history but a number of names have been secured and are appended to this 
sketch.  Like all soldiers of the great Commonwealth of States, they are 
held in honorable remembrance.
