OUR CIVIL WAR CITED.
AS Reason for Philippines to Sur,
render to Uncle Sam.

Seattle, Wash, June 3. -Ac-
cording to letter from a Wash
ington volunteer in the Philip
pines, a novel argument has been
presented by Fillpinos at Manila,
who favor the unconditional SUR
render of the insurgents.
They have sent a resolution in
to the interior which reads in part
as follows: "Would to God that
the Fllipinos might learn a lesson
from the sad history of the Con-
federate States of America. The
COnfederates were defeated by
land and sea, and after four wears
of most bitter and bloody fight
ing they surrendered unconditlon-
ally. Their land was laid waste,
and the country is still behind
other sections of the United
States in prosperity.
We have certainly shown our
patriotism and bravery, and sure
ly our honor has been satisfied.
We have nothing to gain and
everything to lose by the unequal
struggle. We have group of a
thousand islands, inhabited by
5000, 600 people. They have
so, ,OOO,0 600 now and 5000, 900
blacks as we'll able to stand the
tropical climate as Filipinos.
America is generous, as is shown
by the treatment of the Confeder>
ate States after surrendering. Let
us give mp. Already there is a
party in the Union that favurs
giving us liberty bet that only
after American honor has been

SPECIAL SCHOOL LEVIES.
Judge Buchanan Holds Them
Unconstitutional-The Reasons.
To the Editor of The State:

To the Editor of The State:
Judge Buchanan has held that
part of the school law which
provides for levying a special tax
unconstitutional, In that the voting
is limited to voters "who return
real or personal property of the
value of 800 for taxation" " He
hold that all electors who are
qualified to vote in other elections
should he allowed to vote on the
special Tax. Upon these grounds
he has issued an Injunction 20
stop an election which was adver-
tised TO he held, in accordance
with the statute, in Boykin school
district No. II, in this county.
This also stops several other con-
templated levies in this county.
l would be glad if attention
was called to tho situation so that
the legal authorities and members
of the general assembly may in-
vestigate the matter and provide
some plan to reconcile the consti-
tuition, the statute and the court.
