The Career of AguinaldO.

In the case of Aguiualdo the world
has striking example of how much
may be wrecked when there is lackine
the supreme gift of sound judgment,
says the Spokesman Review. Aguinailo
| is subtle, he is cunning; he has courage
| aud resolution; he has rare organizing
| powers, he has shown extraordinary
generalship, i'll every instance eludng
the military traps set by our general for
the the capture of his army or con
| siderable portions of it. In mind and
body he is intensively alert and active
But all these have come to naught in
the lack of sound judgment. He should
have known .omethning OF the resources
OF the United States and the fighting
force of the American soldier, and if he
had known these, he would not have
gone to war against American
sovereignty
Aguinaldo is type of men found in
every country. They are i'll politics in
business, i'll finance, in speculation
They have all the elements of success
save the supreme element of good julg-
ment, and lacking that, they ultimately
fail i'll one effort after another.
