pansion the Hon. John G.. Carlisle, ex-
secretary of the treasury, contributes q
very conservative article to the Ha--
per's. He says that even If the perma-
nent acquisition of the colonial possess
sions of Spain were desirable under
any circumstances, we could not afford
to hold them as q result of this war
which we went into professedly solely
in the interest of humanity and the
right of people to govern themselves as
independent communities; and that to
appropriate the islands as an indemni-
ty for the expenditure incurred in the
prosecution OF the war would place us
in the humiliating attitude of demand
ing compensation for our humanity and
love of liberty.
The possession of the Philippine ISL
snds, Cuba, Hawaii, the Ladrone, and
Puerto Rico, according to Mr.. Carlisle,
will not satisfy the aggressive spirit of
imperialism-in fact, it will, ne opines,
tions, and we will almost certainly go
on, unless checked by the armed oppo-
sitlon of other powers, until we have
fastened upon the United States u
black and yellow horde of conscript
citizens to debauch the suffrage and
sap the foundations of our free institu-
tions. 1t is permanent national poll
cy we are asked to inaugurate, not
merely temporary departure from
the course made out by the statesmen
of the past.

Some Phases of the War.

Men go to war to fight. To fight
means at times to march all night, to
60 hungry, to get wet. Those with no
stomach for such adventure should stay
at home; it is not a pleasure outing.
But the deprivations that come as the
natural result of things may be greatly
and unnecessarily increased through
unlearned, stupid management, and of
this there was much in the Santiago
compaign.
Mr.. Caspar Whitney, who coptri-
butes a complete and consecutive mar
rative of the campaign. with thrilling
personal experiences, to the October
1t might not appropriately be called
campaign of plumbers. First of all
was the infirmity of purpose at Wash
ington: then the choice of Tampa, ut
terly unsuited to be either point of
mobilization or departments one rail-
road track was blocked for miles and
for days with the supplies for which
the troops were waiting at Tampa.
The qusrtermaster DEFICIENCIES alone
would fill book-defciencies so Rlar-
ing as to make one stare-the lack
of system in loading transports, which
made confusion in the unloading, sep
aration of articles that should be to-
gether: mixing of hospital supplies
with general merchandise; and the
storing deep in the holds of the trans
ports things wanted first while things
not wanted were heaped on top.
There were Incompetent officials in
plenty-but how could it be otherwise
when we consider the attitude of our
government towards the army for the
last thirty years? Not in the memory
of the present generation of officers
had three before been an assembling of
the army-nOr even maDpuvres in
divlvisiOn or corps. Distributed
throuhout the country, broken up for
post aud garrison duty, what else but
confusion and laundering could be ex-
pected to ensue when asters
and others who had never seen more
than fragments were called upon for
swift and systematic handling of large
| bodies Of men? For years the govern
ment has cut the army into fragmental
duty, scattered its staff organization,
denied it facilities for corps drill, and
it's staff experience in transportation,
| refused to keep reserve stock OF NUM-
| tions, equipment, etc. And suddenly,
| when called on to exhibit all these
naturally we have incompetent and
laundering officials.
The Las GuaSlmas fight, which is
graphically illustrated by the plan
drawn from notes taken in the field by
Mr.. Whitney, was. however, not, as it
has been spoken OF and written about
by thoseswho did not see, a blunder.
but carefully and skillfully planned
attack, which cleared the road to San
tiago, and thoroughly tested the cour-
age, determination and Workmanship
of the present generation of Americans
| from the lowest to the highest born,
from the ware worker to the gentle
man of fortune. and not one of them
was found deficient.
Now that the war is over comes the
all-important question of deciding what
we are to do with the conquered terri
| tory. On this question of colonial ex-

Everything indicates that the COM

est in the history of the state. The at
fractions will be more extensive in
variety and greater in magnetic power
than in any previous year.
To meet the general desire of resi-

popular Texas and Pacific has put in
the remarkably low rate of SIS from Ell
Paso to Dallas aud return, good only
on Thursday, Oct. 6, and Thursday

Tickets will also be on sale daily dur
lug the continuance of the fair at

cts will be placed on sale Sept. %, the

Whenever King dies all his wives

they, too, may join their husband in

In Africa religion and gods do not
mean the same as they do in civilized
lands. Their religions are all of this
earth, as their beliefs of the next
world readily show. They do not
worship for things spiritual, but pray
for blessings of wealth and fortune. It
is common among all the people to
have three gods-s national god for
everyone to worship, a household god
for the family, and personal god which
each person should wear.
The little personal gods are for
good luck" Rev. Mr.. Tagoe says
they mean nothing more than the
charms worn in America, and that he
was surprised that in 8 civilized land
like this people would be victims to
the superstitions of Darkest Africa.

FROM CANNIBAL TO MISSIONARY
A Strange Story Of a Conversion.
