Of several months.
The deceased had lived in sum-
nit for nearly thirty years, and

War in the Philippines.

The long-e1pccted clash in the
Philippines, between the American
troops and the native Insurgents
under Agulnaldo, has occurred.
The natives were the aggressors.
and as a matter Of course, the
American troops were victorious,
driving the insurgents back and
occupying their positions. It seems
that the Filipinos made the attack
early Saturday night, and renewed
it at intervals during the night. On
Sunday morning the engagement
was general and the attacking forces
were driven back with considerable
loss. The ships of Admiral Dewey
took part in the engagement, she'll
ing the TANKS Of the insurgent army
and driving those nearest the coast
back into the interior. The Ameri-
can loss is said to be 10 killed aud
200 wounded. The Filiplnos lost
heavily, thousands Of them being
killed. The latest report is that
they lost 1000 killed, $500 wounded
and 5000 taken prisoners.
Gen. Otis will proceed to carry
on vigorous campaign against the
Filipinos, and their subjugatlon is
only = question of a short time.

More Sheep and Less Dogs

Sioux City Journal: Secretary OF
Agriculture Wilson gave the me-
groes some homely and practical
advice while in the south with the
president. He told them to enrich
the red hills and barren soil bv
planting clover and to raise more
cattle, sheep and hogs aud fewer
dogs. Thousands Of acres Of idle
ground could thus be made pro-
ductive and the negroes would adj
vance IN industry and thrift and
achieve q financial independence
which would bring in it's train the
respect aud confidence OF their white
neighbors. On his return to
Washington, Mr.. Wilson said to q
reporter:
II am one man who believes that
the southern man understands the
negro better than the men Of the
north. When talked to tue colnred
boys down there the LAST time, / adj
vised them to keep ont Of politics.
"Now, ooys," said, ''get out y"nr
pencils and paper. In one column
put down the salaries OF every poll
tician holding Office in this (your)
county. In parallel column put
down the value OF the eggs laid in
the county. The hens will make
more money every day than the
politicians. Therefore raise more
chickens, raise your meats and learn
70 make your farms pay and pro-
duce . livelihood. Keep out Of
politics. This is really the saliva
lion Of the negro. Education and
scientific farming will bring him
wealth and Independence
More pullets and less politics.
There's present profit and future
hupe init. The secretary's counsel
is in the line Of Booker L. Washing
ton, the great friend and leader IT
the race. and is such as is dictated
BY the situation. The colored man
can demonstrate his fitness 10 enjoy
his civil rights and secure them
sooner by laying the foundation in
thrift, for general participation in
public affairs. With an improved
financial condition will come educa-
tion and q better conception Ut the
duties and responsibilities OF citi-
zenship which will lift him above
being the tool of designing poll
ticiians.
