recent manifesto to the Philip
pine islanders which had better been
spent i'm preparing to defend Manila.
He announced that the North Ameri-
can people, constituted OF all social
excrescences, have exhausted our pa
thence and provoked war by their
peridious Vaccinations. their acts ~

Said this governor general 10 the
islanders: These Americans come
with rufianly intention. robbing us of
honor and liberty. They win undertake
the substitution of Professionalism for
the Catholic religion. they will kidnap
those they consider useful on their ships
and crafty their passions at the cost

In this strain the Spanish fool ran IN
through noisy rawlings, winding up with
the high-nowing prediction that the
Filipinas would fight united under
the Spanish nag, which is covered with
laurels. and victory will crown their
efforts.
With the result that victory didn't
crown this b%raggart worth a cent.

ships. he and his Filipinas went to ut

and the laurels and the victory were
signally for Dewey and his men.
