There was significant statement
made in the Associated Press dis
patches from Manila in Fridays papers,
and one which is worth noting as
worthy Of consideration. 1t was to the
effect that "the American commission
at Manila was hampered In Its worl, of
enlisting the support of friendly Fill
plnos by the fear, expressed by them,
that the 'anti-expansionists may OBJ
tain control OF the American govern
ment and cause the withdrawal Of the
American troops from the Islands, thus
leaving the natives who have assisted
the Americans ut the mercy Of Aguin-
aldo's followers
While there Is no reason for such q
fear on the part OF the Filipinos, which
is due to q wrong understanding as to
when a change Of administration would
be possible In this country, they have
undoubtedly been led to this belief
through reading few speeches and
newspaper articles that have been pub
lished In this country. expressing SYM
pathy with the cause OF the rebels and
lauding the INSCRIPTIONS Aguinaldo. 1t

was telegraphed from Paris that Mr..
Bryan's New York speeches were thus
used.
The new Congress will settle the main
questions. and whatever policy Is
adopted by the Representatives Of the
people will so into effect. No interests
will be sacrificed. and whatever solution
Is arrived at. will be based upon the
principles which have always charac-
terlzed this government in It's actions
toward oppressed people. pessimlstic
prophets and political demagogues to
the contrary Notwithstanding. The
commercial and mercantile elements in
the Philippines seemed most affected by
the reports referred. but Judging from
this mornings dispatches from Manila
they have changed their minds, In view
Of peace prospects and on learning that
the government question will be settled
before n change of administration at
Washington Is possible.

CHOOSING A POPE.
How the Pontifr Of the Roman Catho-
lie Church Is Elected.

How the Pontifr of the Roman Catho-
lie Church is Elected.
London Morning: Owing to the grad
ually weakened condition of his IIoll
ness Leo MIL, 1t is stated that the
members of the Sacred college are al
ready making secret preparations for
the papal conclave for electing q new
pope. The procedure Is very compli-
Gated, and the details have been much
the same for many centuries. A ma
jority Of two-thirds OF the body Of car
dinals Is necessary for the election OF a
pope. The custom OF locking up the
cardinals (cum clave). from which the
"conclave" gets Its name, dates as far
back as the long contested election of
Gregory X, and became law at that
time. Month after month the election
dragged on owing to the disagreement
OF the members OF the Sacred college.
and n device of finishing the wenrisome
business was started by stopping the
supplies. Everybody who Is shut up in
'conclave" Is n conclavist, but all con-
clavists are not voters. as officials, Sec
retarics, attendants, and chaplain share
the fate of imprisonment.
The new conclavc will be held in n
wing Of the Vatican specially arranged
for the occasion. Each cardinal has an
apartment consisting of two cells. one
for himself and one for his conclavists.
Each cell Is numbered and appropriate
~ furnished. The furniture OF the act
ual pope elected becomes the perQuisite
of the first person who can lay his hands
on 1t Immediately after the election,
and. naturally, Is seized by his own
conclavists.
A wicket (rota) ut the gate OF the con-
clavc Is carefully Guhrded by several
papal masters of the ceremonies. All
the meals of the cardinals are passed
through this wicket. and any communal
cations with the cardinals are subjected
to the sevcrest scrutiny.
As soon MS the bell announces the
death of the Pontiff the cardinal Gamer
lcnEo inspects the body OF the pope and
strikes him on the forehead with q sill
Yer hammer. and calls his name three
times. He then takes the fsherman's
ring from his finger and sends out sum-
monscs for conclave, which meets ten
days after the dcccnse OF the pope.
The modes OF election are by acclama-
ton and by bnllot-gcnerally resulting
in the latter form. The "acclamntion"
signifies that-thcn and there ut their

qucntly been stated that his Holiness
Leo XIII. has himself expressed HIS
wish that Cardinal Rampolla, secretary

Dewey won personal fame by the
manner In which he planned the battle,
and the daring and dash with which he

had never been tested in battle, he
won for himself the first place among
American naval officers. and by his

Developing each day

The remarkable growth OF men
in this great country OF ours has
attracted much attention in foreign
lands. Men in the United States
have sprung from obscurity in a
day, as il were, TO great popularity.
Three years ago the name OF Adj.

average Lincoln county student OF
biological history. Schley. Shafter
and a host Of others have become
equally famous by circumstances.
SO it can be said Of Hansen, who

Why they were made at all.
In last weeks JOURNAL we pub
lished statement OF three cases
brought by one Hansen, in the
courts Of this county, all OF which
cases were expensive TO this county,
in as much as the said cases were
dismissed and the county had the
costs to pay. We also stated that
Blacksmith Hansen charged this
county rs for brand while black.
smith in Cassia county, who lives
80 miles from rail road, and has
his iron hauled that distance on a
wagon. charged but "a for the same
work. All OF these statments were
taken from the county records and
these records are supposed to be
true.
The publication OF these facts
aroused the ire OF Hansen, and on
Friday forenoon Commissioner
Hansen, at white heat, followed
the editor into business house
and at once opened his batteries
upon us, in mixture OF Danish
and pigeon English, and kept it up
until told by the proprietor of the
place to let up. The language used |
bv the honorable gentleman would
be alright in bar room but would
look bad in print. After he had
been requested TO let up he went
out upon the street and cussed
some more and invited us shat if
we wanted any thing out OF him to
come on" We felt sorry for the
fellow for he was no more response
bic for his jargon than a raving
lunatic whose life is spent in
padded cell at Blackioot.
Mr.. Hansen tried to tell us what
we should and should not publish,
but when we are 30 far gone that a
2 by 4 county commissioner can
dictate what we shall do. we will
bid farewell to civilization and take
TO the timber. For upwards of
twenty years we have published
