New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1899-09-20

Major Younghusband, a British mill
tary officer has described the Filipino
Chieftain as follows:
"Be his faults what they may, Aguin-
aldo is certainly the most striking per-
sonage in Philippine history. Hell may be
ignorant according to civilized stand
ard: he may appear to be stolid and
wanting in quick intelligence, but if we
judge men by their deeds rather than
by the -ta,tle of conventional crit
lcism, Aguinaldo has, in the face of ev-
cry disadvantage, and at the age of TWEEN
ty-nine, placed himself in the ranks OF
the great and acknowledged leaders Of
popular risings, which, if unsuccessful
are stigmatized as rebellions, but when
successful bear the honored title of sue.
cessful revolutions"
This estimate, made by disinterested
party, ought to be sufficient to silence
the lying expansionists who would feigr
have the people believe that Aguinaldc
is nothing more than an ignorant, savage
rascal.

When some enthusiastic hide bound
expansionist tells you that the Filipines
are not fit for self government, just
bring this to their attention:
"The capability of the Filipinos for
self-government cannot be doubted such
Men as Arelllano, Aguinaldo, and many
others whom I might Dame are highly
educated; nine-tenths of the people read
and write; all are skilled artisans in one
way or another; they are industrious,
frugal, temperate, and, given fair start,
could look out for themselves infinitely
better than our people imagine. In my
opinion they rank far higher than the
Cubans or the uneducated negroes to
whom we have given the right Of stuff
rage"
Who said this? Not Atkinson, nor
Edmunds, nor any of the ether So called
traitors, Brigadier General Charles King,
d soldier in the cause of imperial expan-
sion.

Stripped of the subterfuge the sole
and only motive of the men behind the
Philippine expanslon policy is one of
selfshness and commercial aggrandize-
ment. Humanitarianism does not enter
into the struggle in any form whatever
and the following extract from letter
written by an officer on Dewey's fleet
- ... --.es 1t:
"There has never here been amongst US
a feeling of sympathy for their aspira-
tons. On the contrary we have viewed
their efforts to form government of
their own with unconcealed disgust.
Since they lave stopped fighting with
the Spaniards we have had no use of any
kind for them. We believed that we
alone had any rights in these islands,and
that IT was the duty of the natives to
wait until we were ready to show them
what we had to do. We were certainly
sincere in believing that our government
would do everything to better their con-
dition, and we would give them just
government. When we saw that they
did not want MS and proposed to rule
their own country as they saw fit, we
were indignant beyond description. We
called them, and believed them to be,
sayages, and unfit for any kind Of au-

THE STORY OF CAPT. DREYFus.
Continued from 1st pa &c


For many days du Patty de Clam Wis
tied Dreyfus in his prison, endeavoring
to extort some kind of confession or
admission of guilt from him. Bat to all
his attempts to entrap him Dreyfus re-
turned only denials, always vehemently
maintaining that he had no connection
whatever with the bordereau, and knew
nothing about its contents. In the hope
of breaking down his spirit, du Patty de
Clam had him thrown into a dark dun
geon and kept there for days in solitary
confinement, but even this did not bring
the desired confession. Under thus con-
tinual badgering Dreyfus fell ill, and
was scarcely able to eat, but no admis-
sion Of guilt could be wrung from him.
So imbuel was he with his innocence
that when alone he would shout aloud ::
II am innocentr' In fact his conduct
was such that Major Forzinetti, the gov
ernor of the prison, was so sure that he
was innocent that he told the War De-
partment so repeatedly, and thereby lost
his position. ~
After having undergone seven weeks
Of imprisonment, during all of which
time he had never been allowed to hold
any communication with either family
or friends, Dreyfus was informed that he
would be tried on the 10Th of December,
and permission was given him to write
| to his wife, aud have his counsel visit
him.
The trial took place before a court
martial composed of seven officers of the
French army. He was defended by Mai.
tire Demange, one Of the most noted
criminal lawyers in Paris. The proceed.
ings, lasting four days, were held behind
closed doors, and resulted in Dreyfus be.
ing declared guilty of treason. The CHIEF
witness against. him was one of the mem.
bers of the Bureau of Secret Intelli-
gence, Commandant Henry. Dreyfus
was sentenced to degradation from the
army and to Imprisonment for life in a
fortified place
On the 9th of January, 1895, the
streets were early filled with the crowd
hurrying forward to the scene of the
| degradation. The day was cold and
misty. The courtyard OF the military
school was filled with soldiers, repre-
sentative squads from all the regiments
in and around Paris being present. Few
civilians were admitted into the enclo-
sure, but thousands pressed forward to
the iron ratings to get a glimpse Of the
detested traitor, Presently all is COM
motion. Hoots and jeers deafen the ear.
"Down with the Jewsr' s'Death to the
traitorr' "Dastardr p A prison van is
driven up, and disappears. The crowd
continues to surge and howl.
Within, the glittering soldiers are
forming into a hollow square. Over in
| one corner stands Dreyfus, guarded By
four soldiers and sergeant. Heis in full
uniform, with his sword on his side
There he stands calm, erect, unheeding
the abusive names hurled at him by the
excited throng. The clock strikes nine

The Twin City people are injecting
altogether too much s'business' into their
arrangements for the reception Of the
Thirteenth. Their anxiety Cor crowd
is disgusting.

The reception accorded to Lind by the
members of the Thirteenth was not quite
in harmony with the reception predict
ed early in the year by the st. Paul Dis
patch. Another evidence that no reli-
ance can be placed on the political state
mehts of the Republican organs of the
