happy Island from the misrule OF q
rotten monarchy-to restore peace in
an island with which we have much
to do commercially. We are spending
millions of dollars to drive Spain out
of this Pearl of the Antilles, and the
same humanitarian motives which we
invoked to justify our Intervention in
Cuban affairs, tells US that we must
not replace the unhappy inhabitants
of the PHILIPPINES, long struggling for
freedom, under the dreadful and MUIR
derous yoke of degenerate Spain. In
the PHILIPPINES the mother country's
career of rapacity, plumber and con-
quest, of infanticide, of garroting her
children struggling for the slightest
liberties, of violating promises made
to insurgents to induce them to lay
down their arms, has been greater
than has the scourging of her children
in Cuba. Societies of native inhabi-
tants have been prosecuted, the poor
haye been plundered to sustain worth
less titled personages in Spain, and
ever since SPANS control of the
Islands began no school facilities have
been offered to the ignorant inhabi-
tants. The cry of Cuba has been
heard in the United States for many
years, and at last our government has
told this cruel and inhuman parent
that she is unfit to control these child
rem. In the far East the cry of SPANS
aayed children has not been heard,
except by rulers accustomed to fay
their people as does Spain. Not until
the famous victory of Admiral Dewey
in Manila harbor, has the atrocious
treatment of the Filippinos been pub
lished to the world. In view of these
tales of horror, the inhuman crimes of
debased mother, would we not be
held guilty of a crime against God and
civilization if we should recede these
Islands to Spain and place our APP
prevail on her career of hideous mis-
rule.
But there is still another reason
against retrocession which we must
consider. Aguinaldo, the insurgent
leader, who has lead the insurgents
for several years past. was taken on
board the flagship Olympia at Hong
Kong, shortly after the cable told
George Dewey to sink or capture the
Spanish Asiatic fleet. He was Admiral
Dewey's adviser as to entering the
Asiatic territory of our treacherous
foe. He knew every inch of the sea
and land, and no doubt assisted our
brave boys in the Asiatic waters ma
terially in the destruction of the Span
ish feet in Manila harbor, and the
subsequent possession of Cavite. Since
that time Admiral Dewey has loaned
him arms and ammunition and field
pieces, and while the insurgents have
blockaded Manila from the land Ad-
miral Dewey has, in sense, been al
lied with Aguinaldo in keeping a
strict blockade of the harbor. AL
though our government may assert
that we are not allied with Aguinaldo
de facto we are morally obligated to
him and his followers for assistance
given, and it would be the grossest
kind of an musician injustice we

Several Of the questions asked and an

theories that have come down from our
ancestors in medicine. and perhaps from
our crandmotners. who were not our an

old-time notions ABOUT water may be well
illustrated by the following extract on
the medical view OF the use OF water

Macon, Ga, Oct. 25.-At the Council
meeting tonight a resolution was passed
with only one negative vote asking the
leaders to withdraw their petition for
prohibition election in December. The res
olution sets forth that Macon is the best
governed and most orderly city of its size
in America and that as a high license Is
gradually reducing the number of bar
rooms, there is no need for throwing peo-
pie into a state of turmoil and discord by
SANDER and vituperation incident to the
prohibition campaign. IL is stated that
such a campaign will necessarily destroy
the good feeling produced by results of
diamond jubilee just ended.
