ATTITUDE OF TaE FILIPINO.

Now criticism comes on the
Manila campaign. The Harpers
Weekly correspondent says that
it was Dewey's plan to drop few
shells into the city of Manila and
then land the troops at Passig
river, thus fighting directly with
the Spaniards, and doing away
with the assistance of the Filipi.
nos. 1t appears that Dewey was
overruled. The attack was made
by way of the iusurgent trenches,
and Immediately American troops
got into the city they had to turn
on the insurgents to keep them in
check. The Filipino does not stop
to consider the eternal fitness of
things or the diplomatic and
humanitarian necessities accom-
panying warfare. Consequently
the moral effect upon the Filipino
is anything but favorable toward
the Americans. The boys in blue
are developing a lively hatred for
him and the sentiment is
returned with interest.
This is one of the fore thought
that comes afterward and all that
ought to be said in criticism is
that the result is unfortunate.
Every report that comes from
Manila indicates that aside from
Aguinaldo or any of the officials
the attitude of the native it fast
becoming a serious problem for
Americans to solve. The native
people are childlike-except in
their fighting capacity-and seem
to assume that freedom under the
American flag has no limits. The
freedom they anticipated would
result in nothing more or less than
anarchy.
Whether these people can be
argued into line remains to be
seen. If not, the Americans have
plenty of fighting on their hands
as the natives control nearly all
the country outside Manila.

Thomas Hollinger, the Queen
street blacksmith and wellknown
horsemen, met with surprise on
driving home from his days toll
Wednesday evening. Upon va
cant lot belonging TO him next to
his residence lumber was piled
and the ground broken for build
ing.
He was told that barracks for
the United States garrison was
about to be erected on his land.
As no overtures had been made to
him for the purchase of the land,
Mr.. Hollinger went directly to
Colonel Barber for an explanation
of the violation of his territory.
The garrison commander was
very affsble but gave the aggrieved
landowner no satisfaction.
Mr.. Hollinger yesterday morn
Ing consulted w. A. Kinney, at.
torney at law, who advised him,
preliminarily, that there would be
no use in making a fuss" Mr.
Kinney wrote to General King, al

D senting Colonel Barber, called or
a Mr.. Kinney this afternoon, t.
confer with him Informally on the
matter. He said that Genera
King had told Colonel Barber t.
t occupy the lot and erect barracks
q thereon. Colonel Barber took fol
!, granted that General King bac
o arranged the details with the
. owner of the land.
Il 1t was necessary to have thu
h barracks erected as soon as posi-

no time in starting
the work. The barrack

that he had advised Mr.. Hollinge
to not make row. He would as

Iected, ami Judge Gray received the BANKS
sent him, then the failure to hold the e.ec-

for such failure on Rhe officials here All
that the governor or this Department tan
do in elections such as the one held last

publication as required by law, and send
blank writs, notices and returns to each
county judge in the State, This WIS all
done in this case, and IL such blanks Wee
not received the county judge should have
made demand on this office for them. We
can not voucb fot the delivery of either
the proclamation or the blanks. and VIII
the same have been forwarded TO their
proper destination through the proper
channels our responsibility ceases Be
cause they are not received, or il received
and not given the proper attention, does
not justify charge of negligence against
the officials here.
ION Monday afternoon last wired Judge
Gray substantially as above stated, and
also wrote him advising him that knew of
no valid reason why the election OF las
