"THE NEW MONROE DOCTRINE"
republished on this page from the
Outlook, is remarkably clear and
strong presentation of the duty of the
United States, to itself and to the peo-
pie in the East it has released from
Spanish misrule. To those who have
imagined that the retention of the
former Spanish possessions in the
Orient by the United States would
'smash the Monroe Doctrine to smith
Green's" the article will carry enlight-
eminent and ought TO carry profound
conviction. The Outlook article is an
entirely wholesome discussion of the
whole broad subject of the retention of
the Philippines and the other groups
of islands. 1t affords O welcome anti
dote to the poisonous stuff some men
are preaching and some newspapers
are publishing respecting the narrow
policy that should guide the United
States in its settlement of the issues of
The war with Spain. The article also
indicates the rapid advancement of re-
ligious as we'll as political public opin-
ion towards the only true, humane and
abiding solution of the questions raised
by the conquest and occupation of the
Philippines. The Outlook was not
found among the prophets when events
began their march toward the culmina-
ton they have reached since the naval
engagement in Manila bay. Now the
paper is among the foremost and
strongest opponents of the policy that
has been aptly styled "imperialism,"
and it gives abundant reasons for the
faith it expounds.

For fine unadulterated patriotism
our city would be hard to beat. Not
since the unfortunate Spanish mule
was killed at the Matanzas lombard
ment, has there been such enthusiasm
as was witnessed ON Thursday evening
of last week. Soon after it was learn
ed that Santiago had surrendered to
the American army, the people gave
vent to their joy over the good news
by forming parade and, headed by
fife and drum corps, they marched
through the streets of the city, shout
ing themselves hoarse. The line of
parade was Illuminated by red fire and
other fireworks. Several residences
were also abla2e with lights from top
to bottom and elected hearty cheers
from the paraders During the pro
gress of the parade, Il cannon ON the
school hill doomed forth salutes. The
ringing of the church bells and blow
ing of whistles added greatly to the
celebration and altogether ii WAS
night long to be remembered

BADLY TREATED.

Capt. Horace NJ, Reading, of Co. c,
who was authorized by the Governor
to enlist II company for the 4th Rcgi-
ment was badly turned down by
Adlutant General Stryher last Friday,
when he was notified To dishand his
company. as it had been decided to
put IN II company from Jersey City.
The pretense for this action was that
Captain Reading was slow in filling
up his company, hut this was mere
pretense The Trenton. Philadelphia
and other papers have published that
Capt. Reading had only sixty men
enlisted and that he had reported that
he would not be able to fill up his
company in less than ten days. These
statements are false, and appear 10
have been circulated with the view to
cover mp very contemptihlc under
hand work.
The truth is that Capt Reading re-
ceived orders on Saturday. July 9th,
to recruit company. 0n Monday
morning, the nth, he opened re.
enlting office in this city. and nj noon
on Wednesday he had seventy two
names on the roll, in addition to some
recruits offered from other towns On
Thursday he had one hundred and
seventeen men on the rolls, and tele-
sraphed for n surgeon to he sent to
examine the men, On Friday. to his
establishment. he received notice TINT
the company would not he wanted.
All the recruiting had been done Mt
Capt. Readings expense and he had
spent large sum of money.
The Indignation of the recruits was
great, and our people generally feel
that an insult has been offered 10 this
