The Columbian. [volume] (Bloomsburg, Pa.) 1866-1910, 1899-08-24

The Republican machine on Mon
day was we'll oiled. A number of
anti-Quayites or insurgents as they
are termed by the organization
leaders, who were so confident of
the overthrow of the machine before
the primaries were held, were SO
completely surprised and thorough
ly disgusted with the result, that
they stayed away from the conven-
ton and took no part in the pro-
ceedings. $500 is pretty good
price to pay for the commissioner
ship nomination, but if we are to
believe a man, who claims to know,
that is just what it cost the Repub
lican State Committee.

TALKS BY THE WAY.

The skeleton of the mastodon,
just dug up near Newburg, is the
eleventh example of such remains
which Orange county has furnished,
the first having been discovered in
1894, and the succeeding ones at
intervals during the present cent

at the Boston Museum, is known
as the finest specimen in existence,
the bones being nearly perfect. 1t

WAR MAY LAST TWO YEARS
An OmcIars Opinion OF the Campaign In
the Philippines.

An OnncIars Opinion OF the Campaign In
the Philippines.
NEW YoRK, March 90. Lieutenant
Gohn Of the Fourteenth infantry,
stationed at Governors island. saw
service In the Philippines from August
to November last. Speaking of the
battle now going on outside Of Manila,
Lieutenant Gohn said; II believe that
this will DO the last regular battle
with tho Filipinos. When this cam
paign Is over their military strength
will bs shattered. Bat IL will be a
long time before the insurgents are
conquered. think IL will b, q mat.
ter Of years, perhaps two or three.
"Thc determined resistance they are
making against our %forc,s, to me Is not
strange. Human lie Is n very cheap
thing with the Filipinos. They are
absolutely reckl ess in exposing them
selves and they 60 to the slaughter
willingly. Thcy will fight hand to
hand II forced.
about one-third Of Aguinaldo's
army had Mauser rifles when l left. A
considerable portion had single shot
R%emingtons. They were not then
very familiar with the use OF firearms,
but they are q people who learn
quickly.
"How they came to acquire such a
quantity Of Mausers Is hard to say.
They captured some with the Spanish
prisoners. They undoubtedly stole
tho Others.
But there Is no doubt they arc get
ting assistance from the outside. They
have money, and they know how TO
use IL. Smuggling Is going on con-
stantly. We stopped a good deal of il
while l was there, and once or twice
captured some artillery consigned to
h~guinaldo's army. They had no artil-
lery when l left, and I doub. that they
have any to speak Of now.
ARTILLERY, however, is not of much
service In that country, us the heavy
guns cannot he moved easily. The
roads are few and practically useless
for artillery. All around Manila the
country is low and swampy aud /,
would be n tough job TO movc artillery
through 1t. The Filipinos can build
good trenches. Those that l saw were
first class. They do not protect tn,
approaches with barbcd wire, as the
Spanish did In Cuba do not think
they are as good fighters as the Span
lards.
"Many OF tho men In Aguinaldo's
army are unclvilizcd. In their own
wars some OF these natives still use the
poisoned arrow. That tells how civil
lied they are. You can't get anything
lower than that.
"Aguinaldo himself is not n military
genius, but he is a'great leader o
men. He Is something Of a marvel II
that respect. He possesses the art o
making great bodies Of men do as IN
wishes with all their energy"

Shot While Attempting to Rob a Brady

Willard and Walter Eavey, who

awakened the other night by n noise
at the front door AS of someone at
tempting to enter. Walter arose, pro-
cured n shot gun and loaded it. About
this time the door was opened by "a
key from the outside. Two men en-
tered and one struck a match to locate
things. As they advanced Willard
fred with n revolver, and as the men
still remained, Walter fired with the
shotgun and one of the burglars fell
shot through the thigh, The other
man escaped and as yet is at large.
