1t may be well. before jumping at
conclusions. to ASCERTAIN definitely
whether or not the followers OF the ad-
venturer. Aguinaldp. actually represent
the inhabitants of the Philippines.
Advices from men who have been on
the ground and should know what they
are talking about. indicate that the best
class OF the Filipinos including abou;
all the leading property owners. arc
very much afraid Of the chaotic cond;-
tons that would inevitably follow the
establishment Of a pretended govern
ment by the excitable and mercenary
insurgents. What these people desire
most of all is stable government able
to guarantee and enforce protection TO
life and property. This kind of a gov
eminent they know they can obtain
under American control. They are.
therefore. very DESTROYS that the
United States should maintain it's hold
upon the islands. The time for relin-
gushing such hold IS certainly not ar
rived. Before such action is taken the
American people should be vastly bet
ter Informed regarding the actual con-
ditions existing in the Philippines. and
the true sentiments of their inha Bit
tants. than they are at the present
time.

The family of the pastor of Bcfean
Baptist church hi brunswick is some
what remarkable from the fact THAT II
contains three generaticns of ordained
preachers. Rev. Thomas Todd has
been ordained over. 80 years, and has
baptized more than 1900 converts, mar
ried 800 couples and attended to the
other duties of a busy Baptist clergy
man. His son is the pastor of the
Berean church and has a son attending
college who is also an ordained minister
and has frequently occupied the pulpit
in this town and in Topsham. 1t Ia
proposed at some convenient time 20
have these three generations and the
young son of the younger Todd particle
pate in service at the Berean church
which would be 4 remarkable and

An Anti.l mpesialist Hero.
Eew York SUM


The hero of the anti-imperiaiists 1t
present is AguinaldO. semi-Spaniard ad-
venturer who seems to have blackmailed
the Spanish authorities in the Philippines
to make war with the United States, al
though. according to the American con-
suls at Hong Kong. Manila and Singa-
pore. he and his gang expressed them
selves few months ago as satisfied witt
the prospect of American government in
the Philippines.
Carried by a United States vessel to the
Philippines. which have since been con-
uuered from Spain by the army and navy
of the United States. he is trying to take
advantage of the disordered condition OF
the islands to set himself UP as a sover-
eign for his pretended REPUBLIC is merely
an attempt at dictatorship. He is the
sort of cunning. INSCRIPTIONS. fustian-
sDouting and violent person that appears
so often in the Central American repub-
lies. Freedom and independence" in
his mouth mean what he can get and
hold
He does not represent the great mass of
the natives. He does not represent. ac-
cOrding to our consuls the ma joritys of
the more prosperous and Intelligent citi-
zens who would be the support and the
hope of any real effort at self-governmens
in the philippines. What power he at
tains will be attained by force and not by
the consent of the governed. about which
his sympathizers in the United States are
SO delriOus.
If good order and the reign of law are
to be maintained in the Philippines; II the
islands are to be protected against inter-
nal anarchy and the conflict of Jealous
races. the United States must do the
work or some other strong nation will.
AguinaldO would be followed by a great
crop of Aguinaldos, and security and
prosperity would be impossible.
This strutting little mongrel pretender
trying to bully the United States and
force his way to a power resting on no
fitness of the governor or desire OF the
governed. is greeted by the anti-impe-
rialtsts as a champion of liberty. and the
Mugwumps caper to his golden whistle!
