MALoLOS TAKEN-NOw WHAT?

1t turns out as feared by shrewd OBJ
servers OF the FilipjrJs method Of
warfare, the capture of Malolos, late
capital Of the Filipinos, does not APP
vparently come any nearer ending the
war than tie taking of any of the
other towns between it and Manila
The Filipino forces did not make the
anticipated stand at Malolos, but re-
treated, as usual, burning the town in
their wake. The Filipino capital had
been removed to San Fernando to the
north two days before, showing that
tie Filipinos anticipated making this
move.
The country between Manila and
Malolos now is a dreary waste of
burned territory, whose flimsy towns
are little loss to the natives, since the
structures composing them can be
thrown together in a few days or
weeks and made as good as before.
And the Americans are as far from
a decisive victory over the elusive
Aguinaldo as at the start.
Evidently it is his shrewd policy to
coax the American forces on inland, re-
treating gradually before them until
their line out from Manila is so atten-
uated that it may be broken and sup
plies cut off. Moreover, in less than a
week the rainy season is due, and that

THE vINDICATIuNO OF MILES.

The better class of administration
organs now frankly acknowledge that
the Court of Inquiry has thoroughly
vindicate0 every statement made by
General Miles. The Hartford Courant,
Senator Hawleys paper, says:
Gen. Miless public statements as to a
part of the food supplied to our troops in
the late war made deep impression upon
the popular mind 1t is putting the fact
very mildly to say that this impression
was not effaced by the report of the So
called War Board, nor by Eagan's bus
tering and blackguardly denials, nor by
the proceedings at the court martial 1t
seems to be agreed that Gen. Miles vio-
lated army etiquette when he told his
story about that UNBEATABLE beef to the
newspapers. The round robin at Santiago
was distinctly unmilitary, for that mat
ter, but it saved the lives of hundreds of
American soldiers. Day by day the pub
hshed extracts of the evidence given be-
fore the Court of Inquiry have been
Strengthening the popular conviction that
unfit food was issued to the troops last
year. as Gen. Miles alleges. and Gov.
has clinched and riveted 1t. The mind of
the American people is now made up on
the question of fact, and any efforts to
change it viii be equally futile and fool
ish"
There is a gentle warning in this to
a certain solemn-visaged gentleman
named William Mckinley. He cannot
depend upon the better class of Repub-
lican newspapers standing by him if
he persists in standing by and sponsor
for Algerism and Eaganism. Of course,
he is, as he, himself, has graciously &C
knowledged, equally responsible with
Alger and Eagan, but he may yet clear
the skirts of his administration of
these men, whose retention in office Is
an insult to the American people.
Our Hartford contemporary gently
reminds the President that he enjoys
an "enviable popularity" and should
take care of it," adding pointedly that
"Sinbad the Sailor carried the old man
of the sea on his back for a while, but
he did not do it voluntarily, and he
freed himself as soon as he could"

Is the strongest ally Of the Filipinos,
who are fully aware Of that fact When
that deadly season sets in disease will
do far more to decimate the gallant
American ranks than Filipino bullets.
This is the sort of warfare Aguin-
aldo waged against the Spaniards, who
were as we'll equipped and better fitted
by nature to stand that deadly climate
than the Americans are. By this
method Aguinaldo slowly but surely
wore the Spanish out, until finally he
had them completely penned UP in Ma
Mia. The Spanish found it useless to
send troops against the Filipinos, who
simply drew them on into a wild goose
chase, and when they finally gave up
the useless pursuit, closing in and har-
assing them guerilla fashion, until the
Spanish found the island untenable out
side of walled and heavily fortified Ma
Mia.
We have had sufficient experience OF
Aguinaldo by this time to know that
he is neither fool nor tyro as a mill
tary tactician. He knows he never
could stand against the Americans and
hence does not try to. He will, evil
IDENTIFY, attempt to wear out our troops
as he wore out and finally defeated
the Spanish. Already the uselessness
of h INT fha inflY-inr ha :
been pretty well demonstrated. Now
that we have taken our previous great
objective point, Malolos, we are found
to be no nearer the end than before.
The Filipino capital is simply moved TO
San Fernando, further inland. And
when we move on that place, it, too,
will doubtless be found burned and the
capital moved still further away, while
our line out from Manila will all the
while be getting thinner and thinner
and the body of the army farther and
farther away from its base Of supplies,
with the danger constantly increasing
of being suddenly cut off altogether.
Meanwhile, the American losses in
killed and wounded are already almost
as great as in the campaign of Santiago
and we are not informed as to the num-
Der of disabilities and fatalities from
sickness and disease in camp and hospl-
tai And, as stated, the hardest trials
Of the brave fellows struggling so hero
ically against adverse conditions have
yet TO come with the much dreaded and
deadly rainy season, the beginning OF
which is less than a week away by the
calendar.
No wonder Washington officialdom is
reported nervous over the situation.
The utter failure of the taking of Ma
lolos to have anything like a decisive
effect in ending the war is a ~serious
blow, because now there is no end to
the campaign in sight.

to be waiting on now is the report Of

Schurman is the head, but if it had not

ably be waiting on something else. The

FROM THE SA iE OF WETZEL.

Wetzel Democrat
Mr.. Bryan cannot see certain things,
in some respects, as he should. He is
too sure that silver dominates all other
questions. 1t does not. The Demo-
cratic doctrine of Mr.. Bryan upon silver
is all right, but the Republican party
could not be in power six months
without giving us a variety of devil
ment. We think the imperial idea is
more dangerous than the gold stand
ard We think the recklessness and
folly of the war management call for
rebuke in a way which will p.ralyze
the insensate fools who are running
the President into every kind of dam
ger.
Wheeling will soon be under the
power of the trusts. There will be a
squirt in business and then a squirt in
wages and then a collapse, and We will
perhaps find out where We are at.
1t may occur to some people after a
while that loyalty to Mckinley does
not necessarily mean loyalty to the
American government.

In London just at present the faddists and

one of the principal dealers in London states
that these fine. athletic Dervishes make the
finest skeletons ever put on the bone market.
'It is not so easy to insure a supply or we'll

those are obtained from the stunted half

men should be so much whittier than British
