OUR COUNTRY: First, Last and Forever
nnestinns of th, Euture.


The policy of the government OF
the United States with regard to the
Spanish provinces about to fall into
its hands can clearly he foreseen, at
least so far as temporary control Of
the same is concerned, comments the
Philadelphia Star With the down
fall of Manila. the Philippines must
come under absolute subjection, but
this will preseuta grave problem, and
one which must he promptly, wisely
and couragely met. Seven millions
of little more than semi-ciyilized
people cannot be made over in anight.
This vast mass of ignorance, pre-
iudice aud mixture of elements and
races will require many years careful
handling before it can be satisfac
torily governed, from the standpoint
of the great Republic. Spanish
ways are not our ways The iron
rule of tyranny cannot afford to
make a radical departure from its
usual methods and keep standing
army and a large naval squadron on
duty ten thousand miles from home.

have been threatening TO shoot him for
surrendering, although confronted by the
whole American feet. All the American
ships are at Cayite, in Manila bay.
Salt provisions are plentiful, but fresh
provisions are not obtainable There is
no sickness in the American fleet.
In reply to the Spanish attempt to win
over Aguinaldo's men, the insurgents are
said to have informed the Spaniards that
they are neutral, and will await events.
The Spanish sunboat Ell Cano, ualich
captured the American bark Saranac,
loaded with coal and owned by William
Simpson, Jr., of New York, has left Iloilo

The Spaniards have offered $50, 900 for

leader.

The Cali hands abandon ship drill,

1t is not merely preparation for desert

take to the boats Two minutes after
the word has been passed, every ships
boat has swung from its dayits into the
water, and minute later every boat is
thoroughly proyisioned and watered.
Within four minutes, and often in much
quicker time, every man of the ships
company, from the commanding officer
down, is occupying the station in the
boat called for by his ships number,
and then command ''Sheer off, is given.
The boats are hauled away couple Of
hundred feet from the deserted vessel,
and she rides without human soul
aboard her, often, when the drill is gone.

landsman would account terrific. Then
the word BOARD is passed, and within
eight minutes at the most all hands are
not only on board again, but every boat
has been relashed in the davits. all of the
provisions and water and instruments
and other gear have been removed, and
the ships company is il a fair way to
get to sleep again. 1t is only an incident,
but, all the same, no man whose ears
are greeted by that call III the middle of
the night has any right to assume that
his ship is not really about to be for
