FUNST0N'S VIEW OF THE WAR.

II believe strongly in the justice of
this war while regretting the circum-
stances which make it inevitable. -
General Funston.
This sentence of General Funston's
quoted from his letter which the
Leavenworth Times published effect
ually disposes of the falsehoods re-
Gently circulated about Funston's at
titude to the war.
A lengthy interview was published
two or three weeks ago bet ween Fun.
ston and Consul Wildman of Hong
Kong in which the general, If cor
rectly reported, gave free expression
TO his views. Some phrases were
taken from that interview, CARRIED
and mutilated by the anti-eXpansion
papers to show that Funston was
against further bloodshed, that he
considered the war failure and was
in favor of abandoning the Philip.
pines.
Now, as a matter Of fact, even in
the interview on which these asser-
tions pretended to be based, Funston
said nothing of the kind. He said
that lat present. when much active
fighting IS impossible, during the
rainy season, IL WINS good time to
try diplomacy; that if at the end of the
rainy season resistance was still offer
ed against American authority he was
in favor of crushing out the rebellion
with force of 100, 900 men; he re-
| gretled then, as he does in the SEN
tcnce quoted at the head of this ar
ticle, the necessity which has compel.
ed this country to enter this struggle
! every body regrets it) but never the
| slightest intimatiou does he give that
the war was failure or an injustice,
or that it should be given up or that
the archipelago should be abandoned
| by the United States
In the interview which the copper
head papers distorted out of all its
true meaning, he remarked that the
| Filipinos were far inferior in intelli-
gence to the Cubans, and therefore
must be unfit for Independent self
government
The sentiment in General Funston's
letter quoted by us is exactly the
same as his sentiments in the inter
view which has been CARRIED, and we
quote it to correct any wrong impress
sions which may have been drawn
from the faisifcations of the demo-po

BIG DRY GOODS TRUST.
Arrangements Maturing for the Organiza.
tion of u s5O,OOO.OOO Corporation,
with Headquarters In New York.

New York, Aug. %. Arrangements
are maturing for the organization of "A
$50, 000 900 dry goods corporation in
this city to control and operate dry
goods and department stores through
out the country. Men well known in
the dry goods trade have been working
on the plan for six months and, it is
said have interested financiers, who
will back the enterprise. 1t is expect
ed the corporation will be launched in
time for the fall trade. 1t is proposed
to buy retail stores in cities having a
population of 20, 200 or more. The
company expects to control from 800
to 1000 stores throughout the country.
Former proprietors of stores absorbed
by the corporation will be retained az
managers and will have interests in
the stores. The parent store will be in
this city as the base of supplies for the
branch establishments. Expenses of
travelling statesmen will be eliminated,
and the promoters of the enterprise
believe their system will avert the evil
of bad debts 1t is proposed to control
the output of certain mills, and all
purchases will be made in immense
quantities. In this manner the organ
izers believe the price to the consumer
can be reduced

DYNAMITE EXPLOSION.


Joplin, Mo-, Aug. 25.-Five men were

near and in an instant the big concen-
trating plant was destroyed and the
five men working in il blown to pieces
Legs, arms, trunks and heads were
scattered over a space several feet in eX-

Henry Gilbert was the owner. 1t stood
on the old lIannum and McElroy tract

felt at Oronogo three miles away.

WILL ISSUE NO BONDS.


Washington, Aug. 25-The Fifty
fifth congress appropriated for the
maintenance of the army, including
all expenses except those for the con-
struction of Notifications, about $780,
900, 900. 1t had authorized the presi-
dent to raise an army of 1000 men,
and it was supposed to be allowing the
use of money enough to keep those
men in the field, as it could not be as
sumed that the force asked for would
be unnecessary.
II the war department were to regu-
late it's expenditures according to the
sum appropriated by congress, it would
spend for the army about So, 500, 900 n
month. Two months of the fiscal year
have almost passed, and in those two
months the army has cost more than
S3l, 100000 At that rate the appro-
priation for the army will not last un-
til December.
Secretary Gage was asked whether
he thought it would be necessary to
sell bonds to provide money with which
to maintain the army. He replied that
he thought not. The estimate sub
mitted to congress for the army asked
for Sl44, 600, 900 for the year on the as
sumption that 100000 men would be
allowed to be maintained in the army.
The cutting off of the S64. 900. 600 seems
to have been ill-judged, for if the eX-
penditures continue as they have been
in July and August the appropriation
will hardly be half enough. But the
treasury will not sell bonds to remedy
the matter. The only remedy will he
the consent of congress that more than
$50 900, 900 may be expended.

MAI. WooDSoN RESIGNS.
hoes Steps -Rumored That
Charles King WIN succeed Him.

FL Reno, Ok, Aug. 26-As result
of long continued fight A. L. Wood
son, major of the Ninth cavalry (col-
ored) and acting Indian agent of the
Cheyenne and Arapahoe Indians at
Darlington, resigned Wednesday. Maj.
Woodson has held the agency for near
ly six years, which have been one long
campaign against sensations, scandals
and charges, financial moral, social
and tyrannous, of all which the Indian
department has long been weary, but
the war department could not be
moved. Its rumored that Gen. Charles
King, retired, viii succeed him as
agent and the determined fight of sew
eral big eastern organs on the policy
of detailing regular army officers to
agencies and sending unframed volun-
teers to war will have much to do with
the selection of n successor.

Here is little item from the
Farmers Advocate, of Yates Center:
"SherifT Hunt received letter
from Mr. Whitney the fret of the
week complaining of the lola Jail
treatment, claiming poor food, venti-
latIon, etc Upon investigation Mr..
Hunt found that while the Jail would
not answer for first class summer
resort, it was not as bad az reported"
And here is an item from the Yates
Center News:
"E. G. Whitney, of Ottawa, Kansas,
who had been in Yates Center stop
ping at the Commercial for several
weeks, was arrested last Friday
evening charged with attempting to
rape Florence Thorpe, the l6 year old
daughter of one of the stone masons
working on the court house. He had a
preliminary before Justice Sticher
Saturday afternoon and was bound
over to the district court in the sum
of $500. In default he was taken to
the lola jail the same evening
In view of the fact that the majority
of prisoners get fat, aud that there
has never been a complaint of.the uni
formly kind treatment which they re-
ceive, it isn't likely that more than
one Gray will be required to hand the
angel food cake, whipped cream, sofa
cushions, fruit, books, and other
trifles which sympathetic lola people
will hasten to send to the much
abused young Ottawa Epicurean.
