Reports Exaggerated.

Washington, Oct. 6.-During the day
there were a number of conferences at
the interior department regarding the
at Leech Lake, Mimi, be-
tween Secretary Bliss, Commissioner of
Indian Affairs Jones and Chief White
of the Indian division of the depart
ment. Secretary Bliss said that the
dispatch of additional troops might
have an immediate effect in bringing
about peace among the Indians, and
that as General Bacon had authority
TO avail himself of as many troops as
he believed necessary. he did not be-
lieve the trouble would last long. The
fact that the war department has re-
ceived no Information concerning the
outbreak Of the Pillager Indians, in
clines the officials to the belief that the
reports have been exaggerated. In the
absence of official information. General
Miles would not on condi-
lions at Leech Lake.

used. Inc Governor Tanner a y he
ono made UT his mind to give in to
them. not because of the potency Of
their arguments. but because the cham
payne agents were so persistent in their
claims for preference that he could not
choose one from the many. II is told
in whispers that during this novel con-
test the town OF Springfield received
more champagne than was ever re-
ceived there before. The bullying bas-
kets were all consigned 20 one address.
The privilege was finally awarded. and
the firm furnished the gold incased bot
tie for Miss Letters use on the battle
ship. and also enough more to wet down
the governors train and to christen the
entire right of way of the Big Four
and Chesapeake & Ohio roads Not
to obscure the facts. the journey was
one big drunk. and the w. c. T. u.
will be perfectly justified In assuming
I-told-you-so air.

be solved through Aguinaldo and his
agents. Is to make absurd assumption.
IL other testimony were lacking on
this score, the conditions which are ad-
mitted TO confront the American peace
commission are in point. The first thing
to be done. as the commission finds, Is
to determine who controls the islands
now. The United States has the town.
harbor and bay of Manila, but so far
as appears little or nothing beyond.
The insurgents seem to have the run
Of pretty much all the rest of the island
OF Luzon and claim they have practical
control OF the other islands This claim
is disputed by Spain, which points to
the fact that the Spanish authorities
hold all the principal places in the ISL
ands other thar Luzon. and do not ad-
init having surrendered authority in
man. places in that island.
Thus the situation Is perplexing. II
is understood that the agents of the
Aguinaldo republic propose to lay be-
fore the Paris conference their protest
against peace terms that fail to recog-
nize the independence of that republic.
That Is well enough; but IL is nowhere
claimed. on warranted authority. that
the Aguinaldo republic embraces all
the islands. or even the larger part of
the islanders.
So that IL is fippant to suppose that
the representations of the Aguinaldo
agents settle anything-and the won
der is that men of high station in OFF,
cial life in this country jump to a hasty
conclusion in assuming that these
agents can settle the whole matter.

It's n High Mix.

IF you are an engineer and surveyor
you can get the measurement of the
political situation in silver Bow

pretty dificult case to size up.
The one well-defned factor in the
situation is the democratic ticket. II

with Campbell n free coinage-and
thus Il meets all requirements.
The rest is confusion. The silver re-
publicans ave IN incomplete ticket.

Clark faction. described by the Inter
Mountain as the "disgruntIed demo-
Gratis" has a tail hold on the popu-

stage properties. a platform. They
seemed 20 agree heartily with the Inter
Mountain hat a local issue is the
Anaconda Copper Mining company and
on this platform the Clark d~isgruntled
democrats have planted a few choice
e~xotics.
The scene shifts constantly in Butte.
Yesterday the gold republicans were
going TO go IL alone-that was the an
nouncement. Last night that plan
switched. The latest rumor is that the
gold and silver republicans will get to-

the many rumors-the Standard guar

They Are Too swift.

\ gITHIN ten days several men Of
w prominence in public life at
Washington have taken occa-
sion to say. in interviews. that since
Aguinaldo's agents arrived in this
country and explained things the whole
Philippine situation is simplined and
Americas course made clear. Fed
eral senators are among the men who
thus express themselves.
Surely. the men who talk this way
are strangely at haste in reaching con
illusions. Unless IL be that these agents
have made many things clear to the
officials at Washington that have not
been made at all clear TO the American
public there is nothing new to go by In
reaching conclusions as to these islands
in the orient.
To begin with. Aguinaldo and his
COMPRESSOR whatever IL is called-rep-
resent a fraction only of the Fflipinos.

The presumption among the hasty talk.

formation. they do nothing of the sort.

sion. Washington:
"Advices from conservative sources

less than 500 soldiers, preferably 500,
should be at ono available at Leech
Lake and vicinity. We believe such a
force Is needed. not only to rescue Gen.
eral Bacon n the survivors of his
command. but properly to overawe the
agency Indians, In whose professions Of

quainted with them puts credence. A
