CONQUEST OF TIE PHILIPPINES.


 The assertion made in some quarters that 1t will take 50,o0O United States soldiers to finish the conquest of the Philippines is absurd. About 10000 spanish soldiers are said to be in the islands now. This force was sent there to quell the rebellion. and was in the islands long before the war with the United States began. With the help of Dewey's fleet 12,000 or Is, 1000 American soldiers could capture these 10000 Span ish troops, even if the insurgents give no aid. The insurgents, however. are likely to afford some help. Possibly after the Spaniards are driven out some of the rebels may be little trouble some to the United States for a time but the peril from this source is not likely to be formidable. A force which can conquer the SpaniarC5 in the is- lands can easily hold them afterward and an army of 15,000 probably would be ample for this work. but the earlier the army gets to the islands the easier the work is likely to be.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
