demeanor toward japanese and
Foreigners alike, and the entire alb
sence 0. drunkenness among their
ranks. The police, Oh whom the
brunt of keeping order devolves, in
the first instance, report-both in
Nagasaki and here-that they have
not had a single case of refractory
behavior or intoXication to deal
with. Large numbers of these vol
unteers have made tho Grand no.
tel their headquarters, and there
they can be seen at leasure. All of
them seem to have money ito burn,
for they have bought curios and
souvenirs in Yokohama in large
quantities And this is not to be
wondered at. Aside from the fact
that the American soldier is the
best paid soldier in the world, we
find that their ranks are not made
up of vagabonds, who were out of a
place in the first place, and took
the chance to get employment, but
of intelligent men, among whom
are bankers, lawy ers, merchants,
farmers, mechanics, ETC., who left
their homes when the country call
ed for volunteers to fight for its
cause. And these men have done
honor to their country and to their
flag. They have shown that gen
tlemen can be fighters, and are
proving now that fighters can be
gentlemen."-W ashington Star.

HE KNOWS THE PHILIPPINES.
Bishop Thoburn, Just Arrived Tells
Of Existing Conditions.

Bishop Thoburn, Just Arrived Tells
Of Existing Conditions.
Toledo, Ohio, Arg. 20 - Bishop
James NJ. Thoburn of the Metho-
dist Episcopal church has been
spending few days at his old
Buckeye home. He is well known
as one of the leading evangelical
ministers of the world, and his
present diocese in the Orient inclu-
dies the Philippines. Having visit
ed these islands many times in the
last fifteen years, and having just
returned from the Luzon, he is eX-
ceptionally fitted to judge of the ex-
listing conditions.
To the standing argument of an
ti-expansionists that Dewey should
have sailed away after the battle of
Manila Bay, Bishop Thoburn ma
kes the reply that Dewey had no
sails. Moreover, he had not enough
coal to cross the Pacific, and under
the neutrality laws, by which he
would have been limited to twenty
four hours in a Chinese port, he
could not then have obtained a
supply.
"Still another question, said he,
"why not, after expelling the Span
iards from the Philippines, leave
the people of the islands alone in
peace? 1t seems impossible for
some intelligent people to compre-
bend the fact that there are at
least eighty different tribes or races
of people inhabiting the Philippines.
The class of persons known as FIJI.
ipinos belong exclusively to the is
land of Luzon. They are by no
means popular among the other is
landers, nor has Aguinaldo or any
other man ever succeeded in win
ming the confidence of the islanders
generally.
"At every hazard and at every
cost, it becomes the solemn duty oil
the American people, duty from
which the civilized world will new
err absolye them, to put down al
war-like opposition and give peace
to the islands, and also provide
good government throughout the
whole archipelago.
"But after all, no settlemcn
would have been permanent which
did not involve a full and final de
clsion of the question of ultimate
authority. In all Oriental lands
this question should be regarded al
supreme. Any number of conces
sions may be made after the ques
ton of final authority is settled"

TO ABANDON CUBA
Mckinley VIII Issue Proclamation
Looking Toward Withdrawal b
OF Our Troops.
Weekly.

Washington, D. c., Aug. 90
President Mckinley has sighed a
proclamation which is to be pro-
muIgated in Cuba in day or two.
The proclamation is to the effect
that the census ordered for Cuba is
to be the beginning of the move
ment looking toward the establish
ment of an independent govern
ment for that island.
When the census, the proclama-
ton says, has been completed, ar
rangements will be made by the
United States government for the
holding of local elections in the
various provinces throughout the
island, with the view of establish
ing civil governments, thus giving
an OPP ortunity to the Cubans to
demonstrate their ability to con-
duct, in their way, the affairs o.
the island.
AS fast as the local authorities
perfect their scheme of government
the United States troops will be
withdrawn. The proclamation, il
is said, will be printed in all the
papers in Cuba. It's reported object
is to contradict the stories circulat.
ed in the island that the United
States government does not intend
to carry out the will of Congress and
give independence to the Cubans.

A Queer War Incident.

Speaking of these short rushes
forward, queer thing happened at
Guiguinto, where perhaps half of
the soldiers in one regiment found
hens. Before there was time to kill
the towels orders came to go for
ward. A little farther out the regi-
ment lay down under fire for some
minutes. Then the order came to
charge. Up and forward with a yell
rushed the soldiers, but over the
cheering rose another sound. Three
or four hundred hens, objecting to
being carried head down with feet
tied to the strap Of a haversack, set
up frantic squawking such as was
probably never heard along a line
of charging military before.-Ma-

No Shadow OF Turning

President Mckinley was intro
duce' on Friday to great crowd
of MethOdis,s at Ocean Grove as
"the bearer and guardian of the
flag" This introduction led him to
speak definitely of the policy of the
government in the Philippines.
He spoke only briefly, but what he
said gave assurance of his determi-
nation. AS if to dispel all vestige
of doubt as to his policy, he declar-
Ell:
"Peace first; then, with charity
for all, establish a government of
Ia v and order, protect life, proper
y and occupation for the well
being Of the people; "a government
in which they shall participate un-
der the stars and stripes"
If the President had spoken for
an hour he could not have spoken
better. The rebellion is to be sup
pressed. A government of law and
order in which the natives will par
ticipate is to be established. But
the President is particular to say
that they will participate, not un-
der the brigand flag of Aguinaldo,
not as an independent state, but
under the stars and stripes.
The enthusiasm with which this
statement was greeted shows what
the people of the country wish to
hear. Every assurance from the
President that there is to be no
wavering or shadow of turning
strengthens him, his party, the
government. and the Nation.
