men in Congress to demand an inquiry
into the cause of the armed conflict
now going on in the Philippines. We
do not require an executive investiga-
ton of executive acts, nor do we require
a partisan Investigation. The infor-
nation wanted is whether the Filipinos
have been nagged into their present
attitude in order that the killing of
them in battle and the necessary losses
on our own side shall seem to Justify a
war of determination against millions
of people fighting from the jungles of
their native land eve thousand miles
distant from u shores.
Perhaps the answer to all this will
be that the Filipinoe ceased to be
friendly when they learned from the
ENecuti &c branch of Government,
speaking by actions if not by words,
that they need have no hope of indie
pendence Or Of any share in their own
government. Then will come the fur
ther inquiry as to what is the United
States to gain by first making impla-
cable enemies of ten millions of people,
and then seeking to occupy their coun-
try bv the determination of its inhabi-
tants. How long will such a wal last?
How many American lives will it cost:
How much glory will be gained by it,
and to what extent will 1t appeal to
the patriotism and the hum anity of the
American people?

the PHILIPPINE QUESTION.

States and so continued up to the time
of General Merritts arrival. He was
at first discouraged because On the first
day the people failed to rally to his
support. Gen. Whitaker said at the
Peace Commission at Paris that Com
modore Dewey told him that he "rather
dissuaded Aguinaldo from returning
to Hongkong when thus discharg-
ed" In that same testimony General
Greene recited the services rendered
by Aguinaldo's forces. He said:
Between two thousand and three thousand
troops surrendered to it during the months of
June and July. 1t constantly annoyed and
the Spaniards in the trenches keeping
them up at night and wearing them out with
fatigue. 1t invested Manila early in June so
completely that all supplies We're cut off and
the inhabitants as well as the Spanish troops
We're compelled tollve on horse flesh and buffalo
meat, and the Chinese population on cats and
dogs. 1t captured the waterworks at Manila
and cut off the wa ter supply HI testified
that in the revolution against Span, from Aug
uSt, to April. 1897, the Filipinos fought twenty
five thousand Of the best regular troops sent
cut from Spain, ~intlicting on them a loss ofover
one hundred and fifty officers aud $500 men
killed and wounded, and they suffered still great
er losses themselves.
The following correspondence is of
great historical Importance. General
Anderson was in command of the
American forces at Manila at the time
and until the arrival of General Mer-
ritt.

The Indianapolis journal., 1899-02-23
A Question of Common Fairness.

To the Editor Of the Indianapolis Journal:
The Journal has done some noble work re-
Gently In the direction of township and
county reform. Now, there is one other little
matter which is only a question of common
fairness and right and which ought to be
attended to by this Legislature, viz, pass
a law that will place all applicants for
teachers licenses upon an equal footing.
Let each applicant come before the various
examining boards and stand upon his or her
merits. If their scholarship entities them to
a license let them have it. Laying aside the
contentious between the state and nonstate
schools as irrelevant in the main. does not
the bare fact that the student who can at
tend the State Normal has the advantage
over the student who may be equally as
well fitted, but who is SO unfortunate as
to have studied elsewhere, in securing a
license to teach, work an injustice to the
latter?
The public does not seem to be largely
interested in the history, pro and con, Of
the growth of the present educational
system, and the various "ins and outs dis
cussed by the college presidents with so
much spirit. But there is a spirit of fairness
in the American makeup. Let the various
colleges stand on their merits, but give each
one elbow room in its selected field The
work of the college should be its recon-
mendation, but one college or set of COL
leges and schools should not be handicapped
by handicapping its students. Let all who
QeSlfG TO ISdcn SldiQ eIudlIy DGlOEG lile SA-
amning boards. Is not this the root of the
whole question? i do not believe there would
have been any great legislative and news
paper contest over this question had it been
properly managed in the beginning. For one,
| believe all would have seen the fairness
of the point at issue and the Legislature
would quickly have granted what was
asked for. Without further discussion, why
not pass a bill covering the above in the
interests Of justice? 1t would not work a
hardship on any one and would relieve the
situation, besides being right
