Not Very Favorable to ImDeria|iSm.

The Willmar Argus, (Reputl,can

q Wi'lmar member Of the 18th regi-
nent, just back from the PHILIPPINES.
and learns OF the situation in the
islands the following;
Geo. A. Smith, late of Co. c. 18th
Minnesota, came up from Minneapo-
lis Tuesday night to visit a while
with the boys and his numerous
friends here. He, like the Others.
LOOKS we'll and is feeling we'll. On the
| question OF expansion Mr.. Smith is
rabid against it. He saw a great
deal OF the country and the islands
and the people and he thinks he is in
as good a position to know what he
is talking about as any member of
the 9Th army corps. H. says there
a not soldiers enough in the L. $.
to subdue the more than nine hun
dreo islands. Spain has been trv-
ing to rule them for 800 years
and he thinks the Spaniards in the
PHILIPPINES wers more civilized in
their treatment OF the Filipinos
than the Americans have been. This
is a pretty strong statement but Mr..
Smith thinks he can back it by facts.
He thinks that the administration
is being governed to quite an ex-
tent in it's PHILIPPINE policy by the
army and navy officers who con-
slider the war a grand picnic full Of
experiments and practice. VT. Smith
has promised to do some writing on
the subject and his Wilmar friends
will hope to have the pleasure of
reading what he has to say for if his
writing is as interesting as bis
conversation there will be no
trouble securing readers.

CACHE COUNTY PROTEST.
Roberts Mass Meeting Will Be Held
at Logan.
Especial Correspondencel

Logan, Dec. 1.-THE Democrats of
this county will follow the example of
those in other parts of the state and
will make a protest against the action
of congress in refusing to grant B. II.
Roberts his constitutional rights.
Chairman Mathews of the Democratic
county committee was in town to-
day, comforting with prominent mem
bers of the party relative to the mat
ter. All whom he approached express
ed the heartiest sympathy with the
idea.
The meeting will doubtless take
place on Thursday evening, and speak,
ers from Salt Lake will be invited to
be present At the time of Roberts
election there was much opposition to
him here, even within the lines of his
own party. This feeling has died out
and been buried beneath the indigna-
ton felt over the rotten partisanship
which has shown itself in the fight
against him. There are not twenty
Democrats in the entire county. either
Mormon or Gentle. who have not re-
Gently expressed the belief that had
Roberts been Republican, no charges
would have been made against him.
Scores of Republicans. too, are open
in the expression of their disgust over
the matter, and it is quite probable
that many of them win participate in
the protest that will be made. The
call for the meeting will be issued to-
morrow, and measures will be taken to
secure representation from all the pre-
cincts in the county.

GLEN MILLER'S NERVE
ABUSES LOGAN PEOPLE
M'Kinley Knew All About Charges
Against Smith.
fspecial correspondence.l

Logan, Dec. 17.-Glen Miller's frantic
attempt to save his official head, is
the theme of much discussion in politi-
cal circles, and people wonder at his
temerity in romancing so brazen-
" about the matter. The ac-
count in today's Herald of his
Post interview, was the most as
tonishing statement to which he mas as
yet given utterance, however. When
he says that Orson Smith was active
in the Republican organization here,
and was recommended by members of
IL he talks like an idiot. Orson Smith
had not been active in politics for a
long time before his appointment. and
his appointment, SO far from being ac-
ceptable to the local leaders of the 6.
o. D., nearly wrecked that organization.
Moreover, Smith was considered
good silver man, and TO men like j. A.
McAlister and Robert Murdoch and the
others who had been loyal to the party,
his appointment was most obnoxious.
These men today, while they would
take no part in the attempt to GUST
Smith, simply laugh at the idea of his
fooling Glen
AS a matter of truth, there are men
in this city, who by personal cores
pondence with President Mckinley,
warned him against naming Mr.. Smith
because of the latter's marital relations.
These men have replies to their letters,

president, acknowledging the receipt of
their communications, and stating that

tests. by the president. when he reach
ed the matter referred to. l am pre-
vented from giving the names of these
men, by their expressed desire to have
nothing more to do with the matter
but they are living here all right, and
have in their possession the letters
mentioned.
As to Miller, gentlemen in this city,
opposed to polyg&mists, told him per-
sonally of their objections to Orson
Smith both while they were in Salt
Lake, and while Miller was here. At
the time Smith was named. politicians
on both sides ascribed the action TO
McKinIey's desire to secure favorable
delegation. from this county to the state
convention for the naming of delegates
to the next national convention. Eccle-
siastically. politically and otherwise
Smith had much influence. and TO get
this exerted in favor of a second term

may be able to make Mckinley believe
he was fooled in Smith, but he can't
make Smith nor anyone else here see
it that way. They know better.

POSTMASTER GRAHAM TALKS.

of Polygamy Charges.
(Special ID INC Herald.l

Provo, Dec. 1.-THE certainty Of the
removal of Postmaster John C. Graham
has resulted in a number of active
candidates coming TO the front with
petitions for support. This list is as
follows:
Jesse McCausland, S. ]. Jones and
A. SaXey. The following are also re-

The Herald correspondent this even

publicanS of Provo in regard TO the
appointment of Postmaster Graham
and the conditions then considered
at the time of his appointment. On this
list is Colonel c. Z. Loose, who is gen.
orally regarded as the original sponsor
for Graham. Mr.. Loose says he en-
dorsed Graham only as Republican,
and knows nothing about the charges
of polygamy except newspaper report
and current rumory The question
of polygamy, he says, was never

charging Graham with polygamy; he
did not know that Graham was run

Graham's name was presented for the
appointment states that he Mr.
Graham, was unanimously recon-
mended for the position by the commit
tee and not a word was said about his
alleged polygamous relations.
Graham also received the unanimous
recommendation of the Provo City Re-
publican central committee. Those
recommendations were endorsed by
Arthur Brown. Glen Miller and
Lindsay Rogers.
Charles De Noisy, chairman of the
Republican county central committee,
Gentle and receptive candidate for
the poStmastership, endorsed Graham
and worked and fought for him, with
others. He says he has heard that
Graham is polygamist but never
heard of any protest against him on
that ground. He talked with Glen
Miller about the appointment and re-
commended the appointment of Graham
to the Republican boss, Miller. The
question of polygamy was never
raised.
The Herald also interviewed Post
master Graham tonight. He said: II
