Tho assertion made by an anti-an-
DeHseaondst. paper that "the Flipinos
fought for independence and won their
flxht" needs come modification in order
to make II agree with the facts. The
FHspinos fo1aght for independence sew
eral times and were always beaten.
They beaten Just before the
Amerioan war began. The rebellion
Wa subdued several months before
DsNey sakled into the Say Of Manila,
Spanish sn0horiey was supreme over
the Philippines at that time, 50 far as
It ever was supreme there. The I'm
ihed States furnished Aguinaldo and
hfs c~onfederates with arms, sunk the
Spanish navy, and destroyed Spanish
power In the capital and largest islands
OF the group. The American military
victory at Manila subsequently, and the
treaty Of peace completed the destruc-
ton OF Spanish authority In the islands.
The Flipinos never won independence.
They had stopped fighting before the
va between the United States and
Spain began. They never could have
beaten the Spaniards single handed.
The Americans drove the Spaniards out
Of the islands, and are now going to
govern them, giving such home rule to
the natives as is consistent with order,
with. the observance OF the rights of all
parts of the population, and, with the
interests of the American people

1t is sincerely hoped that the trip Of
the members Of the Legislature to the
various state institutions will rebound
TO the good of the state. They will GER
tainly be able TO see something at Lar
annie that will open their eyes. The
manner in which the university and
the ,~peniteutiary are conducted is just
cause for congratulation and pride and
the more those institutions are ex-
hibfted to the members of the legisla-
ture. the better it should be for all con-
cerned The fish, hatchery is another
worthy institution that can be shown
with profit to the state. Fish culture is
something TO be encouraged by liberal

The Banner Year
From present indications it would
that the year 1899 will be a BAN
ner year for mining enterprises in Wy
oming. New discoveries are being made
constantly and systematic development
work Is being done. 1t is only a Ques-
ton OF a few years before this state
will have a market in the mining re
gion of the state. The Grand Encamp-
ment district Is showing up splendtdly
and has proven to be IN extensive field
that will prove very valuable with de,
velopment work. Central Wyoming

Burglars have appeared outside of
our sister city, Bellaire, and last night
entered the home Of Geo. Medill, at
Brookside. The burglars entered by
breaking the shash lock on a window.
The hired girl was awakened and on
entering the room, seeing the window
up, gave such a scream that the thieves
escaped. No damage was done or goods
were taken.
The streets are still in their bad con-
dition, and each day only makes them
worse. 1t is TO be hoped that Council
will waken up and have the streets at
least clean by Thanksgiving.

ABUSING TIE PARDON POWER.

During the two years and five months
Of Mr.. McKinley's administration, he
has granted ATS pardons and commuta-
tons Of sentence, not including the
case of Gen. Eagan, sentenced to dis
missal, disgrace and Imprisonment as
felon by a courtmartial, whose SEN
tence the President changed to a re-
ward of six years furlough on full pay.
A popularity of these pardon cases
is the Presidents evident Partially to
bank wreckers and embezzlers, OF
whom he pardoned and lightened the
sentences of ia. The list does not in
clude AZ counterfeiters similarly ia

Yet bank wreckers and the betrayers
of trusts reposed in them are generally

sion of time for year, or until January
1, 1901, within which to equip their
cars and locomotives with automatic
couplers and power brakes, as provided
in the act of March 2, 1893. Evidently
these railroads are too busy making
money just now to waste time on such
a trivial matter as providing for the
safety Of the lives and limbs of their
employees, which they have already de-

restorer, DR.. Greene's Nervura, and

the world His practice among wo-
men who suffer from the various forms
of female weakness and disease is
greater than that of any other physi-
clan, women consulting him at his
office or writing to him about their
complaints from every part of the Uni
ted States. Why not call and see him
or write to him about. your case? 1t

feet understanding, and give you ex-
plicit and exact advice what to do to

sonally or at his Office, or, if you write

perience and wise advice will make you

Most of our theatre-g oers remember
Sydney Grundy's play, Sowing the
Wind" which was presented in this
city a season or two ago and which is
underlined for tonight at the
Opera House, but short outline of
its story will suffice to bring it to mind
more clearly that Rosamond, a popular
London concert singer of mysterious
parentage, and Ned Annesley, of aris-
tocratic antecedents, are the hero and
heroine. Ned's adopted father, Bra
bacon, when he learns of Ned's attach
ment, is decidedly opposed and forbids
any such low alliance, being himself
great stiekler for social proprieties. But,
unfortunately for him, his moral past
does not belong to that class, which
might have rendered his position wholly
impregnable.- In his younger days he
has been guilty of laison with a wo-
man with whom the proprieties forbade
marriage; she had borne a child, of
whose existence he had been ignorant,
and it turns out, after the story has
developed to the proper dramatic point,
that Rosamond is his own daughter.
