AGUINAlD0'S POLICY.
c'Why Should Outline My Policy When
America Will Not Be Frank
With Me?n

New York, Aug 6.-The Journal

purportlng TO give the text of a mes
sage sent by Aguinaldo. the Philippine
insurgent leader. to Consul General
Wildman. The message is dated at
Cavite. July 80. and in 1t Aguinaldo
says as 1t has been reported that he
''is getting the big head and not be-
having. "as he promised Mr.. WNdman.
I'm reply" says Aguinaldo. Il ask.
Why should America expect me to out
line my policy. present and future. and
fight blindly for her interests, when
America will not be frank with me?
Tell me this, am fighting for annexa-
ton. protection or independence? 1t
Is for America to say, not me.
Il can take Manila, as l have de-
feated the Spanish everywhere, but
what would be the use? If America
takes Manila l can save my men and
arms for what the future has in store
for me.
Now. good friend. believe me, am
not both fool and rogue. The interests
of my people are as sacred to me as
are the interests of your people to
you
MIR. Wildman replied to Aguinaldo as
follows: Trust to the honor and JUS
tice of the United States and let
nothing interfere with the first task
Of throwing off the Spanish yoke. I
believe in you. Do not disapp0int me-"

Fl. WRANGEL IS LAWLESS
A Letter From d. L. Smith, For
merly of Florence.
THE TOWN is BOOMING
Hold-Ups Occur Every Day and Every
body Goes Armed to the Teeth.
Many Of Klondikers Re-
turning Disguised.

Missoula. April 3.-The following ex-
tract from a letter written by ID. l..
Smith of Florence. who left here about
a month ago for Alaska and is now at
Fort wrangel. will interest Standard
readers. 1t is dated Fort Wrangel,
March %. 1898:
Fort Wrangel is indeed a wrangle.
II is situated on an island on the south
side Of a mountain bordering the water.
At present there are about 500 whites
and 800 Indians The town Is booming:
buildings are going up at the rate Of
10 a day. Lumber is $40 "A thousand,
and lots. 100x50 feet. are selling at from
$500 to 81 1000. The price of groceries
and clothing is o the same as in
Montana.
There are about 5000 people living in
tents about two miles from Wrangel.
1t is very lawless and hold-ups occur
every day. These people leave
their tents after dark and always go
to Wrangel in large crowds. armed to
the teeth.
There have abou 1000 gone up the
Stickeen river and a good many are
coming back. to go home Disguised.
Lots OF people come here with part of
their outfit and very little money, and
Viz tity hi ott sftf ~ fN
per cent duty, they can't get any fur
Their, so have to sell for what they can
and return. My advice to anyone com
ing to this country is not to start with
less than $1,000. although some are
lucky enough to get through with
less.
People are coming here at the rate
of 100 a day and half that many are GO
ing back. This Is a hard country To
get into. We nave been camped here
for a umbe of months N will not
move until the Stickeen river opens.
We are building a va to carry 5000
pounds. We will go up the Stickeen
river to Lenore and from there to Lake
Teslin.
MY advice Is for anyone who thinks
of coming to wait until next spring,
but IL coming this year, start in time
To get here by May /. | think next
year will have far better accommoda-
tons"

LAWYER CORN WAS GAY.
Westerner Admitted He Had to Take
Fees From Both sides.


From the Kansas City Journal.
Among the early day settlers Of
Smith county, OF whom Judg. Dick
Picker wrote i'm his Christmas reniin-
i~scences, was Attorney 'DcIph Corn,
who has been dead for "A score Of years.
Corn wa sa splendid lawyer, but al
most a failure i'm the practice. He
knew no more the value Of money than
n child. He loved his family. and So
long as they were happy and contcnted
he was beyond the reach of care. He
was bubbling over with humor and
simply could not be serious for a mo-
ment. He was willing to lose a case
at any time rather than forego the
pleasure of amusing his friends with a
witticism.
Mr.. Corn once ran for county attor-
ney and held Joint debates with his OPP
ponent. AT n of these meeting his
Corn's weaknesses as follows: IF any
man here tonight can say | ever tool
fees on both sides of a case. like some
one I could name. let him now stand up
and saw so. III anyone can say | ever
n client or that | have ever
been guilty of a dishonest action, let
him now say So"
Then came Mr.. Corn's turn. and he
responded as follows: 1T is perhaps
true hat | have taken fees on both
sides of a case. and il is a source of
great regret hat some other lawyer
does not move into the ountr so I
