The Warlike Spirit.

Civilization, like morality, has the
defects of its own excellences. Its dis
eases are peculiarly noxious and loath-
some. The rapacity of greed goes hand
in hand with an unwholesome pharisa-
ism. Peace is too noble a goddess to re-
ceive the sacrifice of our virtues, and
degraded thus she will become a Meme
sis to her votaries.
There has never been a time when
the nations of the world have presented
SO formidable an array Of armies and
navies. This, so far from indicating
any warlike disposition on their part,
is really the result of costly and siren
nous efforts to maintain peace. The
forced armistice is easily broken. 1t is
not necessary to even the most destruc-
tive wars that there should be the old
passion of fanatic herOism or any sub
lime purpose making the sacrifice
worthy. 1t is far more likely that Ger
many may be embroiled in war with
England for some petty cause than that
both will unite to throttle the monster
whose very existence is at once men
ace and disgrace to Christian Europe
While we Americans are congratulating
ourselves upon a situation of isolation
and immunity as compared with that
of any European power, and, though
really warlike spirit appears to be for
us almost impossible, whatever efforts
we make to arouse it, yet any day some
reckless congressional manifesto or
some foolish traditional prejudice may
precipitate war between US and Spain
or Japan or England, and our made
quate preparedness for war is ID constant
temptation to such provocation on the
part of these powers as may seem to JUS
tify the manifesto or to REINFORCE the
prejudice.
Our assurance of peace must lie, first
of all, indeed, in our desire for peace;
but, next to this, in our adequate ar
mament and our resolve to maintain
wise but firm and courageous national
policy in our external relations, remem-
bering always what is due from us to
militant Christendom. -Hqrper Week

pH1IIppINE M1IIrARY GENIUS.
The Rebellion Develop, a Remarkable
sIrRtcgist.

TACOMA, Wash. July 6.-oriental
adyices received to-day state that the
Philippine Island rebellion has devel-
oped a wonderful military genius, who
is the life and the soul OF n big band
that is stlll fighting against the Spanish
government. He Is native, called
Emilio Agulnaldo. By his strategic
movements and almost lmpregnable de-
Tense works he has repeatedly been able
to defeat superior Spanish forces with
few hundred insurgents.
Just now his army has gone into the
thick juHgles and mountains, and Is
stlll defying the royallst troops. while
his agents are actively engaged In Sc
curing recruits In the provinces where
hatred Of the Spanish government Is
strongest. Aguinuldo has also proved
himself generous and honest. carrying
out his word to the last letter While
other native commanders have proved
themselves cowardly, squeezing from
poor villagers contributions and taxes
under pretense OF carrying on rebellion.
but In reality to enrich themselves, and
wreaking vengeance on their personal
enemies, Aguinaldo has shown forth
conspicuous by his strict impartiallty
and Justice. furnishing severely all those
found depressing the poor.
II is his ambition 10 conquer the is
lands for freedom and found republic
similar in government to the United
States. and embracing petty states gov
erned by native chiefs which now exist
on most Of the outlying Of the 1900 Ia
lands forming the Philippines, Such
government would rule about 100000
subjects.
Another remarkable thing about the
present war is the heroic part played
and fame earned by Chinaman whose
Christian name Is Jose Garcia Paua. He
was employed as a foreman In an Iron
foundry in Barracon, n thlclGy nOpu-
lated suburb OF Manila, and there
learned TO make cannon.
When rebellion broke out In Cavite
Province he went there TO get his wife,
n native woman who was visiting her
old home, There he met Captain Aguiu-
aldo and became his aid -de-camp. Paua
was set to making bronze cannon, which
have played great havoc with the Span.
ish army. He Is very brave, betraying
none OF the cowardly traits OF his race,
and on the battlefield has shot many
royallst officers Such prowess and
GOODNESS shown by an ordinary China
man has aroused great surprise and
admiration throughout the Orient.
