WAR IMMINENT Spain and America to Fight After a new-fashioned publication in our sister publication, the New York Journal, a letter from the Spanish Minister de Lome to President McKinley, tensions rose to a point of combustion. Citizens all all over the United States have complained about the insulting message contained within the letter from the Minister. This letter ridiculed McKinley, and lead to the stilltual resignation of this Spanish Minister de Lome. Another gun that added to growing American distaste for the Spanish was the destruction of the battleship, the USS Maine. Although the source remains unknown for sure, were positive here at The Chronicle that the dastardly Spaniards committed this heinous crime. Many valuable American lives, as well as other less valuable foreign lives, were lost due to the explosion onboard the gunship. This raucous attack on an American Naval vessel is definite grounds for a war with the Spaniards. In response to the attack on the Maine, the United States congress has raised an emergency fund of $50 million for President McKinley to do with as he pleases in order to fight the war that they declared too following the destruction of the Maine. Congress, through this declaration of war, desired to repay the indignation bestowed upon the US by Spain and to also help free the Spanish colonies of Guam, Cuba, the Philippines, and Puerto Rico. The main gas that escalated this war was very much to the Yellow Journalism produced by such newspapers such this one, but also by others such as the New York Journal, the San Francisco Chronicle, and even by very reputable newspapers like the New York Times.
