Fire at Manila.

1t becomes more evident every week
that Uncle Sam has some naughty children
10 the Philippines. They pursue the same
treacherous and cowardly tactics that the
Cubans used against Spain. They prefer
darkness to day light because they can stab
in the back with greater immunity. Several
plots to destroy the Americans in and
about NJ anila have been discovered; and
Wednesday evening a dastardly attempt
was made to burn the entire city. Gen.
Otis cabled the authorities at Washington
Thursday as follows:
Determined endeavors were made to
burn the city last night. Buildings were
fred in three different sections OF the city.
The fire, were controlled by the troops
after severe labor. A considerable num-
Der OF incendiaries were shot and few J.
diers were wounded. Early this morning
a large body of insurgents made demon
stration off MacArthur's front, near Caloo-
can, but were repulsed. The loss of prop
erty by the hre last night will probably
amount to half million dollars.
(Signed) OTIs.
Gen. Otis Thursday issued a general
order directing all the inhabitants Of Manila
until otherwise ordered, to confne them.
selves in their homes after Z o'clock in the
evening, when the streets will be cleared
by the police. He also warned incendiaries
and suspects that they would be severely
dealt with if discovered in any locality.

Several citizens of Montpelier recently
boarded electric cars running between that
city and Barre just to see if the conductor
would fire them off. The conductor did
bis duty and several suits for damages were
brought against the road. The road
charged fare of five cents for six mile
ride during the summer, but early in the
winter raised the fare to ten cents. The
gentlemen who we're elected offered the
old five cent fare but refused to pay more.

THE STAR AND NEGRO PROBLEM.
An Appreciative Expression of Graft
tude From an Organ of COIored Race.

From the COlored American.
The colOred people have every reason to
feel grateful that we have in the nations
capital SO powerful a friend of right and
justice as The Evening Star. 1t is broad
gauged in its treatment of all public affairs
and is far-sighted in its judgment of men,
measures and popular tendencies. 1t Is the
che paper here that can be depended upon
to discuss southern cutrages and the negro
problem in the light of reason, describing
racial prejudice. We do not claim that the
attitude of The Star toward our people is
Influenced so much by considerations of per
sonal friendship, but place the inspiration
for its utterances upon higher grounds. We
believe that a desire for fair play toward all
mankind and the wish to educate popular
thought along safe and stable lines is The
stars controlling principle We believe
The Star is keen enough to see that the
growing disregard for law and order as
fostered by UNPUBLISHED lynchings, is do
ing incaiculaDle injury TO the white peo-
pie of the land, and is destroying the credit
and prosperity of the entire southern sec
ton. The pride of the good people of the
south is piqued to have the impression go
abroad that the ruffianly element can so
unceremoniouSly override their authority
and humiliate them in the eyes of the civ
iized world. The Star would with equal
fervor warn the nation against any policy,
social, political Industrial that threat
ened the good name Of the republic by
blocking the power OF the law or stopping
the wheels of moral or material progress.
The Star happens to speak out for our par
ticular race because we are the one that
is being wronged and 1t believes that most
of US are trying to rise beyond the limita-
tons set by an unjust and illogical public
sentiment. We want to thank The Star for
its broad generCs ity and true Christianity,
and do not intend TO narrow the grandeur
of the principle il so ably espouses by In
jecting into the situation the element of
The expect the
support of The Star when he strives to go
in the right direction, and it will be our
elder brother when our enemies malic-
iOusly accuse abuse US; but when We
are radically in the wrong. We can depend
upon it that The Star will part company
with us with a celebrity that will make our
heads swim. There is no color in The Star 5
spectacles and il plays no faVorltes.
