Gradually these who supported
Mckinley in 1886 are seeing the
point" The Portland Oregonian,
the leading republican paper Of
the Pacific coast and one Of Nc
Kinley's warmest supporters in
the last campaign, is now loud in
its denunciation Of his course,
The following is from that paper
and will show its sentiments:
'The Mckinley administration
has made some most disgraceful
appointments to office at the be-
hest Of inscriptions politicians,
Tt has betrayed the civil service
to the 5poilsmen, paraIyzed the
organization of the army, violat-
ed its pledges as to currency re-
form, Inundated its most efficient
servants and discredited Ameri-
can intelligence and valOr in the
eyes Of the civilized world. In a
time for courage it has quailed.
In a time for decision it has hesi-
tated. In a time for action it has
delayed. In a time for honest

ocated, Its policy Aas heen to
drift; it's aim has been to placate
every body, however unworthy,
and cater to everything however

gagged in St, Louis in q business
which brings a weekly profit Of
from IS 900 to $4,000. It's the
selling Of daily papers. Hun
dreds Of families live comfortably
on the profits Of the sale Of daily
newspapers.
In st, Louis the favo ito news
paper with the boys is the POST
Dispatch, because it sells best,
An Investigation has SHOWN that
the boys sell more copies of the
daily Post-Dispatch than the
combined sales of the two other
English evening papers,
One Of the pleasures the boys
find in selling papers is they are
thoir Gown boss" They come
and go when they please. While
many have regular corners and
nowstands, others megoly walk
the streets each having his own
peculiar way Of crying" out his
papers.
The situation is quite qifteren
on dnday. The papers are
printed in the morning and by
six o'clock the boys and men are
out ia search Of buyers.
There are four English Sunday
papers. Many boys take out 300
papers. A boy taking from two
to three hundred papers has all
he can do to get over the ground.

HAVE HARD TIME
Light Thrown on the Condition
Of the Philippine Life by
Soldier.

Cecil Arnett, of Mammoth
Spring, now a soldier in the Phil
ippines, in letter to his home
folks, has the following to say in
regard to the war;
81 am very sorry to see such
men as General Wheeler in favor
Of the conquest Of a people who
have been for years lighting for
liberty and for the great princi-
pie for which he fought in 1851 to
1885, viz: the right Of self-goy-
eminent. Had I known land ]
am only one Of a great many)
that I was coming here to tight
Tagalos, Nigretos, etc., | would
never have enlisted, but at that
time the cry from every part Of
our country was for the liberation
Of the Cuban, and incidentally
the Filipino, and to avenge the
Maine. Of course, since the wac
was precipitated by some one
pretty near the administration,
we have had to fight in self-de-
Tense. Many times since the
fighting began here have, when
watching their people, called to
mind what you have 50 often told
me of our glorious southern wo-
men encouraging their dear ones
in the struggle Of the civil war
for that great principle-the right
Of self-government. Now I
think I hear some "cuss" back
there say, ooh, he's no good /;
he's afraid to ight," bat my
comrades in arms, my company
and regimental officers will attest
to my competency and bravery.
'I am very we'll, but an having
a pretty hard time Of it down
here. Most all the time it is
raining and we have to 60 on
guard in mud and water to our
knees, and the thermometer at 10
10 115 in the shade. We have no
place to battle here like we had
at Iloilo. I don't know whether
we will be mustered out at Frisco
or Nashville. am quite home-
sick. You know it has been
nearly three years since I saw
any Of you. We never see the
face of a white woman here, ex-
cept "Spanish Beauties" and
when you pass them they raise
their heads in the air and give
you such a look that it almost
freezes you, although the ther-
mometer registers 10. Every
drop of water we use has to be
boiled or we get sick, and now
that the rainy season is on it is
far from pleasant. In going to
outpost duty we have to wade in
Che water waist-deep.
"They are organizing q regi-
ment from the volunteers over
here, or trying to. They offer
them travel pay from here to the
place Of enlistment, amounting to
about 5000, and although would
like to have the money, ! would
not enlist and remain here two
years longer for many times as
much"
