AGULNALDo AND ALGER.

Commenting upon the fact that Spring
field rifles and black powder were confront
ing Filllpinos equipped with Mausers and
smokeless powder, the New York Herald
suggested that it might be well TO swap
Ager for Aguinaldo, and make the latter
Secretary of War.
The reception this suggestion has met
with from the press reflects the widespread
indignation that exists over the inefficiency
that leaves our gallant troops in the Philip
pines, even at this late day, with obsolete
equipment, inferior TO that Of the semi.
savages under arms in the archipelago.
The Philadelphia Ledger says:
"Mean while six thousand Krag Jorgen.
sens, the new long range rife adopted for
the army, are lying in store at San Fran
cisco, waiting for somebody TO think to send
them to the men who need them. All this,
too, after years experience in war. This
is another fine example of Algerine military
management"
II the matter were not Of such serious i'm
portance it would be droll. What could be
more grotesque than the spectacle Of the
Filipino bushwacker arming his followers
with up date equipment, while the richest
and most progressive nation on earth leaves

obsolete as cross bowsi

A BURNING DISGRACE.

The expenses attending the funeral OF
the late Representative Dingley, of Maine,
is burning disgrace. The total amount
of bills rendered for paymant by the gov
eminent aggregate $4,000, of which $3,340
were for a special train Of four cars and
meals served.
The people of Lewiston, Maine, where
Mr.. Dingley lived, seems 10 have come In
for good part, as the Lewiston undertaken
claims $500 for individual services, $75 for
steel case 10 the receiving vault, 800 for the
catafalque on which the casket rested while
the body was lying In state, and $50 for four
trained singers, who sang at the funeral.
These Congressional funerals have be.
come disgusting to the whole people of the
country. For Congress To incur $4,000 as
expenses attending the funeral OF member
of its body is absolutely inconsistent with
the decency and dignity which should char
acterize funeral occasions. So far from be-
ing tributes of respect TO the dead members,
they are usually mere rollicking, junketing
parties INDUCING in every possible extrava-
gance because the government is expected
to pay the bills.
1t is nothing more than right and proper
that Congress should take note Of the death
of any member of its body, and il is equally
right and proper that small committee
should be assigned to accompany the re
mains of any member TO their final resting
place, but il should be done with every re-
gard to the propriety due to the solemnity
of the occasion, but it is time that both the
Senate and House should call halt upon
all irolics attending an official funeral.

ural that such should be the case. From

look he carried into SPAIN
Dewey has taken into the East possibly
young face, but in the glorious history he
has made for the flag he carried there, can
any one fancy that lines OF care should not
have a place too 1t lie not TO be expected
that the man Of Manila should not give ply
steal evidence of his part in those scenes, that
he should not be under strain. His com.
try did not send him TO some health giving
watering place midst some romantic section
of the country, nor TO any one OF the many
luxurious, brilliant and captivating places
of pleasure along tiGe-water, 1t sent him
on a great Grand. 1t sent him on the same
mission that it cent every private soldier
who has been shot there or who died there
and Dewey knows that, and takes the
chances as they do and does his duty as they
did. His business is war not sentiment,
and that means more than Just words can
say.

For his country. his best service is to live
For his country be has also another straight
way 10 enter II is not that he is paid for

not shrink from attaining, and because we
know that is the reason We trust him and
are sorry to hear the sad news that he ais
failing 10 health and lines are beginning TO
appear 10 his face" Let that all go, The
war hero of Manila has done his work well
in the east, and while he remains there he
has the commanding admiration and conf
dence Of his country. When he himself says,

a welcome beyond all that with which old
Roman triumphal marches have been mark
ed He will return after having with his
own sword written his own biography on
the brightest pages of his country's history.

TIE LEGISLATIVE DEADLOCRS.
The deadlocks in the legislatures this
winter have been more serious than usual
Utah and Delaware have failed to elect Sen
In California aud Pennsylvania A decision
was reached only few days ago in Ne
braska, after prolonged fight. Where a
legislature adjourns without electinga Sena
tor, no appointee Of the Governor can have
seat at Washington.
The Senate has decided this matter in the
cases OF Oregon and Montana. The State
will simply be unrepreseuted. This is the
proper decision. Otherwise, a combination
might be formed in a legislature for the ex.
press purpose of preventing an election, so
as to force an appointment by the Governor
The deadlocks are not creditable contests.
The people do not elect representatives to
go TO State capital 10 carry on personal and
other quarrels for three months. Those
elected do not justly serve the people unless
they perform the duties entrusted 10 them.
After II has been demonstrated that the Cd
posing elements cannot agree upon a nom-
inee, the candidates should be withdrawn
and concessions made by both sides This
can usually be done IL the proper spirit Is
,hown. No State is 50 poor In candidates
