GILT EDGES OUGHT TO WIN.
THEY MUST DO TT TO HOLD
THE LEAD.
Talk of Joe Carbett Helping Out
the San Francisco
Team.

The Fresno ball team will meet the
Gilt Edges at Snowflake Park to-mor-
row afternoon. The game will begin at
2:45 o'clock.
The Fresnos lead the Stocktons in
the race for the league pennant but the
latter team is at the bottom of the list,
and the men from the raisin belt will
have to hustle from now on if they are
TO cut much of figure in the race.
There is excellent material in the
southern aggregation, and the club is
capable of playing good ball, but some
now it has been in a streak of ill-luck.
To-day the Fresnoites will have a good
chance to show what they can do, but
they are up against the leaders
By the way, there is little to choose
now between the Gilt Edges and the
San Joses, the former having percent
age of 6S1 against 666 for the Garden
City team. If the latter should win
their next game and the Gilt Edges
lose tomorrow, Sacramento will be in
second place.
The San Francisco post" SAYS it is
limited that Joe Corbett will be on the
diamond before the season is over. and

AGUINALDO'S POSITION.
INSURGENT LEADER MAKES A
STATEMENT.
Says It Is for America to Say What
He IL Fighting For, His Inter-
ests Being With u. S.

| NEW YORK, Aug. 5.-The Journal
prints a cablegram from Hongkons
purporting to give the text of mes
sage sent by Aguinaldo, the Philippine
| insurgent leader, to Consul General
Wildman. The message is dated Ca
vite, July Both, and in it Aguinaldo
says it has been reported that he .is
getting the big head and not behaving
as he promised Mr.. Wildman.
In reply says Aguinaldo, 81 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 I fighting for annex
alton, protection or independence? 1t
is for America to say, not for me. can
take Manila, as I have defeated the
Spanish everywhere, but what would be
the use? If America takes Manila /
can save my men and arms for what
the future has in store for me. Now,
good friends, 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"
AGUINALDO'S PROPOSITION.
NEW YORK, Aug. "a dispatch to
the World" from Manila Bay by way
Of Hongkong, says:
Aguinaldo, the insurgent chief, is be-
coming more friendly to the Americans.
He has made two propositions to Gen
eral Merritt which may solve the in
surgent problem in manner highly ad-
vantageous to the United States.
In the first place he asks the COM
mander-in- chief of the American land
forces to permit the rebel troops to
march through the streets of Manila
when the city surrenders.
General Merritt appears inclined to
consent to this. It would crafty the
vanity Of the natives to let them in
dulge in what will seem to them a
Triumphant march as victors through
the capital of the enemy, they have
been successfully combating and be-
seiging since the wiping out Of Monte
jos fleet. AT the same time the native
troops, being thus arrayed in line and
under direct orders, may be more easily
controlled and prevented from excesses.
In the second place Aguinaldo sug-
gests the formation Of Philippine regi-
ments with American officers.
This is considered a highly important
proposition, a possible key to the
whole situation on the island. The
native troops would of course be con-
stantly under the eyes and direct or
ders of our men. 1t is believed that
they would be obedient and easily con-
trolled under tactful commanders.
The American troops now occupy the
trenches in front of Malate, a suburb
of Manila, which We're constructed by
Aguinaldo. The rebels withdrew to
let our men take their places close to
the Spanish lines.
The Astor Battery, supported by
battalion Of the Third Infantry, is now
in position at the front its guns being
planted within a thousand yards Of
the Spanish lines.
Fathers Dougherty and McKinnon,
the former being on General Merritt's
staff, have gone to Manila to have an
interview with Archbishop Nosaleda,
of the arch diocese of the Philippines,
and to point out to him the futility of
resistance to the American troops.

nor Daniel Il. Russell held conference
! in Asheville that lasted for an hour OF

memorable incident to the principals.
Governor Russell could reflect that in
his official capacity he has made himself
more generally obnoxious than any OF
his predecessors except Holden, and that
as politician policy inaugurated by
him in his home city brought about revo-
luton and boodshed, making him odious
alike within and without the State. He
could reflect that he has been repudiated
not only by the people of his State but
by the better element of his own party;
/, that he is an object of contempt to
many and OF ridicule to all.
| Senator pritchard was doubtless aware
that as the first Republican Senator
! from this State since the war great
things had been expected Of him by
the national party; that he had celebrated
, his election by declaring the" Solid South
irreparably broken and had invited the
public to inspect him as the Titan who
did the smashing. Alongside the rain.
