"INp1.RfAi.;S.M.'

The other day, in a conflict out
side the walls Of Manila, some insur-
gents were taken prisoners. The
Spaniardss promptly killed the whole
party. Now, the truth was, those
men were fighting in Il cause infinite
ly higher than Washington and Ham
ilton and Greene and Sullivan and
StarlSc and Knox and Lee and he
Others fought in between I775 and
1883. Our rcVOlutiOniSts fought for
political liberty, against a govern
ment forced upon people without
the consent Of the governed, while
those poor Wrctches on the island Of
LuZOn are lighting against iEtOIcr-
able expressions chat have been
handed down, affecting generation
after generation, for more than three
hundred years. But there is another
point to it. Those mon who we're
executed were the allies of the Unit
eel States. Their leader went to
Manila in Admiral DcWey's flagship,
and began his operations with tile
advice and concurrence of Admiral
Dewey, and inasmucll as our govern
ment has approved Of what Dewey
did, that made us the allies Of those
duskv rebels, and the murder Of the
prisoners was precisely what it would
be were q detachment Of our Utah
boys who have gone to Manila to be
surrounded captured and executed.
That fact raises an interesting and
most important point. Suppose
Spain now, or six months hence, see
ing the h0pelessncss of a struggle
with power like the United States,
sues for peace, what is to be done
with those, our allies in the Philip
pines: Are they to be turned back
to the tender morcies Of Spain? If
she was cruel before, what would she
be while snarting under the awful
disasters of the war? 1t does not
happen to be Il matter Of Imperialism,
rather it will quickly resolve itself
into d matter Of strict Justice. VIII

should be? a little thought will
make clear the truth that some
mighty increasing Responsibilities are

tion, and over all shines out clearly
the fact that, avoid them as much us

Helena, July l0.-Word was re-
cciycd from the secretary Of the in
terror today that the case known as
the .'Bouldcr townsitc case and in
volyinG nearly all the town of Bould-
cr. the county seat Of jefferson
county. had been decided in favor Of
the inhabitants Of the town and
against the Northern Pacific railroad
company. The decision for the first
time gives the people of the disputed
ground clear title to their property.
The case is an old one and has been
in the land department several years.
There was mineral location upon
the ground in 1882, when the North-
ern Pacific filed its p]ats, but the
entry was subsequently, cancelled.
The Northcr Pacific then claimed
the ground, but the decision OF the
secretary. following the Whitney,
Taylor decision of the United States
supreme court, declares that the fact
that the entry was of record at the
time the Northern Pacific filed it's
definite location excepted the land
from the grant. Judge Frank Fl.

FOR THE FINAL. STRUGGLE.
Sphniards at Manila Preparing To Give
Our Troops a Hot Fight,

Ouf troops Hot Fight.
San Francisco, July 2O.-A Chroni-
Gle special from Cavite, dated June
%: says: In case Of the expected
bOmbardment of Manila, the area to
which the Spanish may retire will be
limited to the American and insur-
gent lines surrounding the city.
There may come the struggle, for the
Spaniards have burrowcd into in
trenchments and fortified hills and
knobs for the final resistance. 1t is
known here that every energy is bent
within the city to prepare it for the
final struggle. The people are ex-
hortcd by the clergy and military au-
thoritcs and their hopes are buoyed
by false reports as to relief from
Spain and Spanish triumphs in the
West Indies and along the Atlantic
coast.
Augusti is credited with an asscr-
tion tnat he can muster $50, 900 men,
No one seriously believes that he can
marshal 10000. The city seems as
nearly ready for the conflict as the
material in the hands Of the Span
| lar0S can make 1T.
The German fleet now here, not
counting the supply vessels, includes
the Cormorant, Kaiser. kaiscrin Au-
gusta, Irene and Princess Wilhclma,
and their weight OF metal exceeds
that OF any Other fleet here
The British fleet includes the I'M
mortalitc, Honaycnture and RATHER,
but the presence Of so many Germans
is expected to draw other ships.
The French have tho Brux and the
Bascal, and the japanese the Mat
suslIma 1T is freely predicted that
there will not be a bloodless capitu-
lation OF Manila, as it is feared there
will be a long and bloody resistance.
A Chronicle special from Cavitc Of
June 10 says: One hundred and
eighty-tive wounded Spanish troops
went into Manila tonight under the
Red Cross flag. They were part Of
the fruits of the campaign that the
rebels have conducted against Manila
for seven weeks past, and their re-
moval was d relief to themselves and
their captors.
That many Of them lived to get
back TO their beloved Manila is due
almost entirely to the skill and sacri-
Ices OF the surgeons from the Amer
lean cruiScrS--Dr. G. II. Brownel OF
the Pctre], DR.. ID. n. Carpenter OF
the Raleigh, DR.. r.. &. Broderick OF

It sounds very much like q bull to
speak of the ruins OF cathedral
which was never built, yet that OK
traordinary sight can be seen across
the river in one Of the best noiHh-
borhoods OF Brooklyn. Years ago,
in the flush times after the war, it
was proposed to build Il magnificent
Roman Catholic cathedral to replace
the insignificant church now used
for the purpose. The land, splen
did tract, was secured, subscriptions
were obtained and the plans made
ior building which would be an
ornament @ the new world. The
ground was broken with imposing
ceremony, an army Of men put to
work, and. soon the massive walls
and foundations were finished up 10
about Is feet from the ground. Then
came panic and troubles of MANY
kinds. The work was stopped and
the walls topped with earth and
wood to keep them from decay.
Years passed and another effort was
made, but only enough money was
secured to build a small portion at
one end Of the great building to be,
which is used as a place of worship.
The grass and moss, vines and
ichens are everywhere, the board
ing has fallen off in many places,

looks exactly like many of the old

STACK THEIR ARMS.
22nd Kansas Declared They
Would Do No More
Until Fed.

Washington, Aug. pa private in
the Second Tennessee writes as fol-
lows to the Washington Post;
mo so men out of a regiment would
remain in the service if it were left en-
tirely with them whether they could
leave the service or not. During the
last three weeks over a thousand pri-
Yates and non-commissioned officers
have been asked to express their opin-
ion on this subject and the universal
reply has been: If they will discharge
me and give me my liberty once more, I
will be willing to give them every inch
of clothing on my back and what pay
is coming to me, and I will walk home
in a bargain
These boys have had a hard expert
ence- On the first days march out of
Camp Alger to ThOrOughfare Gap the
boys had a breakfast of bacon, coffee
and bareback, and through mismanage-
ment of some one, never tasted food
until the next morning, and then only
what would be considered light lunch
for a tramp. This treatment has con-
tinued ever since. Only this morning
the Twenty-secOnd Kansas regiment
went out over a thousand strong and
stacked their arms, announcing they
would do no more until fed The COM
missiOned officers of that regiment sent
to the few stores here and bought up
all the meat that was offered for sale
out of their own private funds, and fed
their men"

END OF CAMP THOMAS.
All Troops are Expected to Leave in a
Short Time

Chickamauga Park, Tenn, Aug. 22.-
Judging from present indications, Camp
Thomas, the largest military camp of
the Spanish-American war, will soon
be thing of the past. A number of
regiments have already been ordered
home. A number of others have been
ordered to Knoxville, Tenn, and Lex
ingtOn, Ky, and now comes an order to
Colonel Wheeler, acting chief quarter
master, to secure bids from railroads
to convey all regiments remaining at
the camp to their respective state cap
itals. The idea seems to be to get the
regiments to places where they can be
mustered out close to home, the neces-
sity for keeping the army intact be-
ing no longer in evidence.
Numerous regiments are now making
preparations to leave and by the end Of
the week the population of the camp
is expected to be reduced to One-haf of

SENTIMENT CHANGES.
Many Volunteers Now Desire to Be
Mustered Out.

Washington, Aug. 22.-The war depart
ment has not yet made out its list of
regiments to be mustered out of the sery-
ice, but has been in constant correspond
ence with various sections of the country
upon the subject. At first it was thought
that the demand to remain in the service
would prove embarrassing to the depart
ment, as so many troops desired to con-
tinue in service. It is now believed that
there has been a change of sentiment and
the officers and men of regiments that see
no possibility of further fighting are will
ing 70 go back to their aVocatiOnS.
Some want to go to the new possessions,
but others, it is said, see no glory in pO-
Icing Santiago and other captured points
where there is nothing to do. Some of
the troops are also becoming very weary
of camp life. The First Alabama, it is
understood, has been selected for muster
ing out at its own request.

THE BOAT UPSET.
representative Ed McKeever Foun d
himself Flounde ring in Deep
Water

Sheriff Porter S. Cook and Represen-
tative Ed McKeever took a Sunday boat
ride at the camp of the Topeka people
on the Kiene farm, II miles west of the
city, which resulted in an accident and
narrow escape from drowning.
They were rowing about in a small
boat in water about Is feet deep when
the boat turned over throwing the
sheriff and pOrtly attorney precipitous-
ly into the water When the sheriff
came to the surface he grabbed hold of
the boat and went to the shore. But
Mckeever was not so lucky. He was
left to struggle out of the water by
himself. By heroic efforts he managed
to reach shallow water and was assist
ed uD the bank where the camDing
party rendered sympathy and dry
clothes to the two shipwrecked marin
ers.
