ALL AGREED.
Congress Will Be Urged to Endorse
Philippine Report.

New York, Nov A special to the
Herald from Washington says:
1t was unanimously agreed at the
meeting of the cabinet to urge upon
congress the immediate passage of
joint resolution declaring it to be the
intention of this government to retain
the Philippine islands, to suppress in
SurrectiOn and to grant the brOadeSt
kind of local Self-goVernment to the
inhabitants of the islands, under such
form of United States civil government
as may be eXpedient.
This decision was reached after the
cabinet members had carefully read
and discussed the unanimous report of
the Philippine commission. The opinion
was expressed around the cabinet ia
BILE that congress could be depended
upon to pass such resolution.
While it is apparent that the publi-
cation of the Philippine commissions
report was so timed as to have an eff
feet upon the forthcoming election, the
president purposes to free himself from
the charge of making it a campaign
document by indorsing it to the fullest
extent in his coming annual message
and by asking congress to accept it's
conclusions and thereby strengthen the
hands of the administration in dealing
with the instruction.
In speaking of the commissions re-
port, Secretary Long said:
Il think the report is calculated to
have a very salutary effect upon public
sentiment and to enIighten the public
mind.
There have been so many misrepre-
sensations and exaggerations that it is
delightful to have so valuable and ex-
plicit a statement from a board the
composition of which could not be i'm
proved in this country or any other.
Two of the men who are members have
been long known in their associations
with our leading universities, the third
gentleman has had more than II years
diplomatic experience in China, and the
fourth is today the most conspicuous
man in the nations eye
Three of the men have never been
associated in any way with politics,
and the fourth, who has not taken an
active part in politics by reason of his
diplomatic service, is one of the most
respected members of the Democratic
party, and certainly cannot be charged
with any leaning toward the admins
tratiOn. 1t is especially gratifying that
the report backs up and indorses the
position and the statements of the pres
ident upon this whole matter"

How to Make Nervous People.
.OO/l0NOOIOOC

America has become a land Of ner-
vous emotionalists. largely owing to
our sins against the dietetic health
laws of nature.
Only outdoor exercise in cold eli
mate would enable vigorous individuals
of our species to digest the viands
forced upon alimentary organs enfee-
bled by sedentary occupations writes
Dr. Felix Oswald.
Brain workers must have different
food than day laborers. because brain
work uses up parts of the brain and
nerve centers, while physical labor uses
up other parts of the body. A food for
brain workers has been prepared by
scientific food makers and called
Grape Nuts. It is a pure, natural food
made from selected parts of field grains
known to contain the natural phOS-
phate of potash and other elements
used by the system in rebuilding and
repairing the brain and nerve centers.
This food is skillfully cooked at the fac
tory and is ready to be served instant
" either cold with cream, or as a hot
breakfast dish with hot milk or cream
poured over it. All f1rst-class grocers
sell Grape-Nuts, and the Postum Co.,
at Battle Greek, Mich, manufacture
the food.

MANY BIG TRUNKS.
Soldiers Brought Back Great Num-
Der of MementoR.

Every soldier in the Twentieth Kan,
sas regiment brought back with him
from the Philippines, from one to five
trunks and boxes of clothing and relics.
1t was an almost amusing sight to see
the great number of peculiar shaped
boxes and trunks, of all shapes
and sizes, which were piled up on the
depot platform on Thursdav- and Fri
day. There were no two alike, and
they averaged in weight from so pounds
to over 300.
Probably the largest trunk, was
was one which John Haisch ent to his
mother, in care of some of the Twen-
tieth Kansas boys. The trunk, if it
may be called a trunk, was about
feet each way and covered with canvas,
while outside of this was built a heavy
crate. It weighed $50 pounds and took
four men to handle it. There was con-
siderable guessing as to what was in
the trunk, among some of the officials
at the Rock Island depot, and it was
finally agreed that it must contain one
of the engines of the Manila railroad
which Haisch is superintendent of
which he had sent home as a souvenir.

COMMISSIONER FIGHT.
b. 8. Coleman Writes Letter About
the Situation.

To the Editor of the State Journal:
The voters of the First district are
almost unanimously opposed to the
county commissioners voting to build
the old county bridge across the Kaw
at some point below Topeka. They
take it to heart as an imposition for
the reason that they have appropriated
money to put the Granville road in
good travelling condition and the cree
ton of a bridge at some point below
Topeka would turn the trade from
North Topeka to the merchants on the
south side, and would injure the bust
ness and merchants of the North side.
AS this is the year to elect COM
missioner from the First district the
voters must in justice lay politics aside
and vote for the man who will denounee
this action and work to the interests
of the district.
We, as voters in the district, know
how much a good bridge would do us
at some point west of Topeka and how
needless a bridge would be east of To-
peka in Shawnee county. Mr. Kelsey,
the commissioner from the Second dis
trict, has always been opposed to the
county building a bridge west of To-
peka, and he is exercising all his in
f1uence and some of his time aiding
voters of the First district to support
S. H. Haynes for county commissioners.
Now We as voters, know, or should
know, what this means 1t means to
