sufferer from this sort of treatment at
the hands of certain European nations,
and consequently precautions were
taken in the case of the Paris commits
sion to avoid leaving any loopholes for
the entrance of any plea or demand for
special privileges, either in the matter
of territorial acquisition or trade con-
cessions. Accordingly, when the adj
ministration decided to acquire the
Philippine islands the American COM
missioners were especially charged to
define the limits of the group, so as to
leave no room for misconception on this
point, nor for the setting up Of claims
to islands whose inclusion in the groups
might be regarded as doubtful.
To reduce the American claim to the
clearest possible outlines, resort was
had to the definitions of the boundaries
of the Philippines by geographical lines
There was reason for this, for at a, very
early stage in the war, Spain, probably
with a foreboding of what the outcome
was to be, sought to separate the i'm
portant Viscayas group from the re-
mainder of the Philippines by a decree
and the information was conveyed to
the state department to the effect that
a certain European power was en-
deavoring to obtain, through an agree
ment with Spain, the important island
of Palawan, lying to the southwest of
the Philippine group and commanding
an important position in the trade be-
tween China and Australia.
1t was recognized that the Sulu
islands might become an object of at
tack, for their status is not quite like
that of the remainder Of the Philippine
group. SPANS own title to them was
not established beyond question until
1877, when Germany and Great Britain
both acknowledged Spanish sovereignty
in return for certain concessions as to
freedom of trade and fisheries, so far
as the islands were concerned It hap
pened perhaps fortunately for our CON
tention, that the Sulu islands belonged
to the Philippines, that a few years
later Spain herself issued a decree. de-
claring the islands to be a part of the
Philippines, and extending the author
ity of the captain general at Manila
over the group

DIR. FORD RETIRES.
No Longer Chairman of the Rcpubll
 can Central Committed.

Dr. J. M. Ford, chairman Of the re- publican central committee. yesterday resigned his position for reasons which he sets forth in the following letter to Secretary W. c. Barnes of the com mittee. The doctor has had this step in contemplation for a long time and as long as a month ago defined his position in an interview with a cor respondent of the Los Angeles Times Regarding future activity in politics, he said last night that he had done with political affairs forever. He writes MT. Barnes as follows:
 Phoenix, Ariz., April 19, 1898.
 Hon. w. c. Barnes, Secretary Re publican Territorial Central Commit tee: Dear Sir-I have the honor to herewith hand you my resignation as chairman of the republican territorial central committee. I cannot longer act in that capacity, and do justice to my self, nor can do justice to the central committee by occupying position and acting with a wing of the republican party that advocates the gold standard as one of the leading articles of its faith.

TROUBLE WITH PAPAGOES.
A Raid or a Village Just Below the
 Line.

Governor McCord yesterday received a telegram from the interior depart ment saying that communication had been received from the United StateS consul at Nogales, Mexico, giving ln- formation of a late raid by about fOrly Papagoes upon the Mexican village of Fl Plomo. about 100 miles west Of No gales. The object of the raid was to frighten the settlers away, steal tnelr cattle and smuggle them across the line. The last incident of the pro gramme is what concerns the Unlted States. The telegram to the governor suggests that the affair is probably a serious one.
 The attack on Fl Plomo was not en- tireIy unexpected As long ago as last summer the settlers were kept in al most constant fear of a Papago in vasion, and a month ago it seemed imminent The Papagoes grew so restless that a troop of the Seventh cavalry under command of Lieutenant Wright was sent out from Fort Hua- chnuca. They remained there until a week ago last Sunday, when they were recalled to the post by orders from the war department for a general movement of the military forces.
 El d from the mining camp of the same name The inhabitants are themselves Papagoes and Mexicans and are en- gaeed chiefly in stock raising. The telegram does not state, but the raid CTS are probably Indians living on thls side of the line. Those Papagoes oc- cupy broad area of territory extend ing from the Sierritas mountains in southern Pima county almost to the Colorado river. They are themselves cattle raisers, but their more import ant industry is stealing from their white neighbors whom their predatory practices have almost driven out of that rich grazing region. The Indians are supposed to be under the control of the government, which, however has exercised very little control over them. The complaints of the cattle men have been unheeded and one firm Maish & Driscoll, of Tucson, were compelled to abandon a ranch at g loss of more than s5O,000. A cattle mems association was formed couple of years ago for protection against the thieves and it was suggested since nc relief could be afforded by the govern ment or the courts that the sufferers take the matter in their own hands send an armed force against the Papa goes and teach them lesson regard ing the rights of property. But it wa: easily fOreseen that this plan would lead to 8. good sized war, for there art several thousand Papagoes, mostly we'll armed, in that region. It wa! probable, too. that the government would make move in defense of it. wards. The association finally hired man who was not afraid to go among the Indians, gather evidences of cattle

THE MEXICAN LINE.
Realization of a New Danger on the
 Frontier

There is considerable uneasiness in Arizona, New Mexico and Texas re- garding the possibility of a Mexican outbreak along the border in case of a war with Spain. The friendliness of the Mexican government is not wholly reassuring, for the very precaution it is now taking to prevent an outbreak may precipitate it. It is remembered that during the last Guatemalan re- bellion the Mexican government sent a force to guard the frontier. Within week the whole force joined the revo- lutionists The Mexican soldiery is not governed by any set of principles. 1t seldom knows or cares what it is fighting for and acting on an impulse Is as apt to join one side as another.
 The absence of regular United States troops on or near the border would in itself invite incursions if there were no other inducement. But it is believed that there would be another. In spite of a national hostility in Mexico to Spain, some of the wealthiest residents of the republic are Spaniards. The richest firm in Mexico, worth many millions, is Spanish company at Mag atlan. A little money we'll distributed would set the American southern frontier on fire.
 The matter of raising cavalry regiment to operate in the southern part of the territory is now being agi- tated.

Rico also, but it will be to wreak else where her revenge upon Americans afloat, upon unprotected cites, and up- on American commerce. There will be wholesale privateering upon all vessels sailing under the stars and stripes. Our ships will be hunted and captured on every sea, and the loss and annoyance will at last become in tolerable. It will either compel re- prisals in kind, or the armed descent upon the coast and capital of Spain, which President Grant is said to have contemplated when this very situation was threatened twenty-five years ago.
 The war which is imminent will, if begun, be conducted to it's sure conclu- sion with all the energy and expedi- tion possible. But it will be no holi- day jaunt for our fleet, no half-hour battle, no six-wleeks' campaign. It is more likely to continue, perhaps de- sultory, for years before Spain's pow CT to harass and destroy is ended There will be death and mourning and loss. The people must face an enor- nous increase in the national debt higher taxes, loss of other Maines and all the horrors so familiar to the last generation.
 All these must be anticipated, but when they come, let all remember that William Mckinley, brave soldier himself, knowing by experience al the dire concomitants of even sue cessful war, strove by every means 1r his power in the face of popular clam or and congressional impatience, tt avert by honorable methods the evil: which must attend actual war ever! day and hour that it lasts.

ACTUAL WAR.
It Will be no Holiday Jaunt for
 Either Party.

Washington, April 20.-Every indi- cation is that the cortes will scout the idea of surrender of Cuba. The limit set in our ultimatum will expire, and then must come action.
 If our warships have not already been dispatched, conveying a fleet of merchantmen loaded with provisions for Cuba's starving people, they will leave at once and invest Havana, United States troops will be disem- parked at some seaport near Havana and take up their march to the rear of the doomed city. No shot will be fired at first-none will be fired at all if it can be avoided. But the first shot from Spain against either our ships or our men will absolve us from millions of possible financial liability, and make impossible the intervention of any other power in behalf of Spain. It is not believed that any serious defense of Cuba will be put up Spain will retire peaceably or by force from Cuba, perhaps by force from Porto

The NJ. E. church, which is q re-
markably pretty little edifice, was
completed about four years ago.
Owing to the condition of the times,
the undertaking of its construction
was indeed q difficult task, but
thanks to the great generosity of
the people of Baraga. including
both religious denominations, and a
few liberal outside donations, the
work was finally completed, leaving
only comparatively small debt,
which through the untiring efforts
of the ladies of the society was re-
auced to 800. Before the service
was commenced Sunday afternoon
that amount was taken care of, and
the church stands today free from
all Indebtedness.
Rev. J. H. DeLacy, the present
pastor, is young man OF excellent
ability, and an earnest and untiring
worker. He has awakened unusual
interest in the church work, and it
is sincerely hoped that he will be
retained in the field in which he is
accomplishing so much good.
Service will be held tomorrow
evening at the usual hour, 7;3O
o'clock. The subject will be, THE
Interchangeable Savior. All are
cordially invited to attend.
