Certainly. 1t will be Bryan and
Mckinley over again. That does not
mean that the silver issues will be
shelved either. It will be rather ov-
ershadowed probably by the anti-mo-
nopoly movement. There are many
people who will never understand the

AMERICAN SOLDIERS ON THE DE-
FENSIVE.

The American soldiers in the Phil
ippines have done a great deal Of
splendid fighting. They have won
many battles against great odds and
taken all towns that lay in their
path.
An idea of the situation in Luzon
can now be obtained from the fact
that these admirable fighters are no
longer on the aggressive. Captured
territory does not mean permanent
possession unless troops are left be-
hind to hold it. As reward for the
magnificent work the soldiers now
find themselves in possession OF a strip
but little longer than from Chicago
to Waukegan. However willing they
may be to advance they are unable to
do 80 because they cannot garrison
points behind them. The regiments
at front are already occupying more
territory that they can take care of
without constant harassment and
menace from the insurgents. The
result is that this splendid little ar
my in the Philippines, which at the
outset acted in every battle as the
aggressor has been put Oh the defen-
sive. 1t is subject to attacks winch
it cannot punish properly, because it
has not mon enough to follow up the
repulse OF the assailants. The small
string Of soldiers has been stretched
as far as it will go. Now that the
limit has beln reached there is moth
to do but wait on the defensive. AS
the regiments grow thinner and the
advance positions become more diff
cult to retain, this defensive attitude
can give way only to retreat.
Virtually the United States, a ma
ton OF wealth and patriotic spirit, is
now at disadvantage with half-dis-
ciplined Tagals, to whom it promised
to restore order with all speed. The
battles and skirmishes which Gener-
al Otis may report as victories will
count for nothing unless more regi-
ments are sent to the Philippines to
make those victories of some use.
While the President is laboriously
figuring out whether he will send
eight or nine regiments,a proposition
requiring ten times that many is
waiting for settlement.
Mr.. Mckinley owes the prestige of
his administration to the fact that he
is a "war President" In the luster
OF that fact many of his acts have es.
capped criticism. But can he expect
to retain the favor Of even his party
politicians if the lesson is driven
home to the people that this war
President is to be held responsible
for the failure in the conduct Of
war?-Chicago Record.

S. v. Derrah, commercial agent
of the Missouri Pacific at Kansas
City, has been promoted to the
position of assistant general freight
agent of that line. Mr.. Derrah is
well known in La Junta, where he
resided for some time several years
ago, occupying the position of
clerk to the trainmaster at this
point. He still owns the block. at
the corner Of Trinidad Plaza and
Colorado Avenue. The Denver
Republican OF last Friday contains
quite lengthy review of his rapid
rise in the railway business from
truckman on the freight platforms
at Trinidad to his present respon
sible position.
Misery loves company and most
mortals appreciate sympathy in
the dark hour of their trials and
trrbulations. In this cold world it
is exasperating to meet man who
is unresponsive, and who seems to
take keen delight in your misfor-
tunes. For the past ten days we
have been using the top Of the
tribune stove for an editorial
desk, which will readily account
for the burning thoughts that have
been transcribed into dull, cold
metal and found their way into the
columns OF this great family jour
nal. The coal merchant next door,
however, gloats over our misfor-
tunes. He has the marble heart,
for every time we order ton ti,-
(6oo pounds now OF coal he greets
us with frozen smile, extends the
glad hand and remarks that its

Thereiis more catarrh in this sec

dies, and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pro-
nouncedIitincurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be constitn-
tionali disease, and therefore re-
quires constitutional treatment.
