A CLEAN CAMPAIGN
A CORRESPONDENT HAS A FEW
WORDS TO SAY ON THE
POLITICAL SITUATION.
Those Republican Thieves" Must be
Pretty Smooth Boys to Rob the
Government With One Hand and
Pile Up the Gold in the Treasury
With the Other.
Editor Republican.

~ ASpubiiNoh.
AS the time is drawing near once
when We will be called upon 10
cast our votes for one or the other OF
the political parties, it is the duty Of
all voters to think over and study the
past history Of the parties that they
may judge for themselves which party
should have their votes. l am not go
ing to say a word against any candidate
in either party. 1t is supposed, and 1
believe 1t is a fact. that when a repre-
sentative body of our citizens meets
and places men on a ticket that the men
selected are at least on an average in
honesty and ability with the rest OF us.
Therefore it is not the men we should
abuse and vilify, as some are doing. A
personal fight against any man is I'M
gentlemanly and will rebound against
the man Or party that practices 1t.
l hope the republicans, both person
ALLY and through the press, will refrain
from slandering any candidate IN the
Opposite ticket, and leave that for the
democratic press. No political fight
is worthy a victory If it must be won
by Misrepresentation and degrading
Itself in the eyes OF all good people. Let
1.-THE republicans carry on a clean cam
paign and victory is assured.

Icratic papers the other day that our re-

If such is a fact, they must be pretty
smart boys, for in spite of the alleged
steal the cash reserve and cash balance
in our treasury continues to pile up
until it has attracted the admiration OF
the civilized world. Prices have ad-
vanced on stock of all kinds and farn
products until the money is rolling into
the pockets of a great majority of our
people. Labor is fully emproved with
good pay. Pretty smooth boys, those
republican thieves! Now I ask the

AeUINALDo NOT so BAD.
He seems to be GettIag Along all Rish,
Win the American Forces in Front
of Maniia.

NEw. YORK, Aug. 5.-A dispatch to
the World from Manila Bay, by way of
Hong Kong, says: Agninaldo, Insur-
gent chief, is becoming more friendly
to the Americans. lie made two prop
ositionG to General Merritt, which may
solve the lDsurgent problem in mans
ner highly advantageous to the United
States. In the first place, he asks the
Com mander in Chief of the American
Land Forces to permit his troops to
march through the streets of Manila
when the city surrenders. Merit ap-
pears inclined to consent to this. 1t
would crafty the vanity of the natives.
to let them indulge in what will seem
to them triumphant march through
the capital of the enemy. At the same
time the native troops being thus ar
rayed in line and under direct orders,
may be more easily controlled and pre-
vented from excessess.
In the second place, Aguinaldo sug-
gests the formation Of Philippine regi-
ments, with American officers. This is
considered a highly important propo-
sition, and the possible key to the whole
situation. 1t is believed that they
would be obedient and easily ycontrolled,
under tactful commanders.
The American troops now occupy the
trenches in front of Malate, a suburb of
Manila, which were constructed BY
Aguinaldo. The Insurgents withdrew
TO let our men take their places close
to the Spanish lines. The Astor Bat
terry, supported by a battalion of the
Third Infantry, is in position at the
front, its guns are being planted within
a Thousand yards of the Spanish lines.

Russian and English.

LONDON, Aug. 5.-Tbere is great un-
easiness on all sides here, in view of the
Chinese situation, which is regarded as
bringing an open conflict between Great
Britain and Russia, within measurable
distance; and IL is universally thought
that the Marquis of Salisbury's inverte-
bracy in yielding to Russian aggressive
ness is responsible for the dangerous
complication which can only be over
come by prompt and most firm intima-
tion that Russia's opposition to British
commercial concessions must cease. In
this connection the story is current that
ths Princess of Wales hurried depar-
tnre from England, was in response to
dispatch from her sister, the Dowager
Empress of Russia, bearing upon Anglo
Russian relations. 1t Is well known
that the Dowager Empress 10 strenu
ously working to conclude a definite
understanding regarding the Anglo
Russian interests in the far East, and it
is said that great importance attaches
to the meeting Of the sisters at Copen-l
hagen.

Cuban Custom Duties.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 5.-At meet

customs tariff was discussed, particu-
larly the tobacco schedule. 1t was
agreed that the rates of internal revenue
taxation now in force IN the United
States should be made the customs rate
for Cuba. The customs tariff for Puerto
Rico was also discussed. 1t was the
opinion of the President and the mem

island passes into the possession of this
country, the customs laws and regula-
tions now in force in the United States
shall be made to apply to Puerto Rico
without modification.

Michigan Bank Robbery.

RIcnLAND, Mich, Aug. 5.-One of the
most daring and successful bank rob
berries ever perpetrated in Michigan,
was carried out by six robbers, last
night. Some came from the East on .

ates with horse and carriage. They se-
cured about $1,000 in cash from the
Union Bank, and $4,000 in notes. The
horse and carriage were taken into
Augusta and left there. There were
three explosions, which awakened many
people, whom the robbers kept at bay
with guns. The safe was complete
wreck, nitro glycerine being. used to
open It,
