AS the rainy season draws nearer,
the Filipino. capital goes farther
away. Since the dawn of that early
February day when the Aguinaldans
treacherously fired upon the Ameri-
can sentinels in the outskirts of Ma
Mia, things have been happening to
the Boy Generals forces which have
caused them to proceed further aud
further northward. They had slight
circumference in the matter of bag
gage aud household commissary and
quartermaster supplies to retard the
celebrity of their progress, but they
did have capital. They kept it in a
stationary condition at Malelos as
long as General Macarthur aud his
flying squadrons would permit, but
when he made it too hot for them to
keep it there the Filipinos put their
capital on wheels and rolled it to San
Fernando, eleven and one-half miles
further up country. Thence it was
propelled westward to Calumpit. At
last accounts Aguinaldo had anchored
his locomoting capital at Tarland.

Fears for Our Soldiers.

From the New York Press.
Something worth the observation
OF the American people ia the fact
that the demagogues who could not
tolerate the idea Oft an adequate stand
ing army are now terribly alarmed
at the length to which the war in the
Philippines is likely to extend aud
the number of soldiers that will be
required to end the campaign there.
The administration aud the Republi-
can party asked for the army that
good judgment showed was needed
to accomplish most speedily and sue
cessfully the work on which General
Otis and his brave followers are en-
gagged. Both the administration and
the party leaders said that the num-
ber of regular soldiers should not be
less than 100000. The yellow news
papers and yellow politicians, how
ever, pretended to see in this pro-
posed army a conspiracy to build up
military aristocracy" and to de-
prive the "plain citizen" of his liber-
ties. They were able, acting through
a band of political jobbers in the son.
ate, to give up half the army we
ought to have had.
Well, the Republican party wanted
more professional soldiers and said
so, but, because the army that was
required was denied to the govern
ment, the officers Of the admiuistra-
tion and the army did not fall to wall
ing about the fmpossibility of doing
their military work with the scanty
means supplied to them. They went
on whipping the PHILIPPINES. They
will 60 on whipping them. They
will end our war in the Orient and
render a proper accounting of their
service to the American people. But
the fact is not changed, nevertheless,
that we should have had a larger re-
gular army. We should have it pro-
vided for when the congress meets.
We should have it regardless of how
valiantly aud we'll our present SOL
diers have accomplished their work
in the Philippines. But we dare say
that the whimpering hypocrites who
cannot sleep o. nights tor their worry
over the task before the men under
General Otis will again cry out
against SO undemocratic and tvrannic
an institution as trained American
soldiers, and will vote for private
plunder and q smaller army than the
United States needs aud has needed.

tercst to the school directors and
teachers of Taney county:
Forsyth, No., April IL, 1899.
Hon. w. 7. Darlington,
Supt. Public Schools.
Jefferson City, Mo.
Dear Sir,-I am quite often asked
the question, "does q district have to
expend all Of the 4Oc. levy for school
purposes when it will not run a six
months school ?' For instance, Dist.
So has had taught three months school
and has enough money to teach an
other month or part Of a month.
Will they have to expend that money !?
1 would like thorough examination
and an carly reply will greatly oblige.
Yours very truly,
j. w. HUGHES, Go. Clerk.
State of Missouri, Dept. of Education,
Clty OF JEFFERSON, Aprll 1S, 'S9.
j. w. Hughes,
Forsyth, Missouri,
Ny Dear Sir:-It is my opinion
that the school board should expend
the entire forty cents levied tor
school purposes, provided so much is
necessary to maintain six months
school. Should this amount be in
sufficient the school should be held
as long as such tax can pay for. If
the district to which you refer has
not expended all of the levy, it is my
opinion it should do so in order to
comply with the provisions of Sec.
1880 Of the school law.
Very truly.yours,
w. T. CARRINGToN.

Silver and Eastern Bryanism.

Silver and Eastern Bryanism.
From the Chicago Post
The first Of the New York Bryan
Jefferson dinners, few days ago, was
great success from an external point
of view. There was enthusiasm, there
were reaffirmations of the Chicago
platform, renewed assurances of 10y
atty to the Nebraska leader and other
features calculated to make Mr.. Bry-
an comic rtable in "the enemy's coun-
try" But, In all candor, what light
does that banquet throw on the pro-
bable direction of the next Demo-
cratic campaign and the issues of the
next platform of the Bryan followers?
An impaIt tial examination reveals
that, after all, silver was relegated to
an obscure aud dependent place by
most of the speakers. They we're
apologetic in their references to it;
there was an unmistakable under
tone of doubt aud consciousness of
impropriety. Even Bryan himself
devoted more time ahd attention to
new issues than to Is to l.
Thus q. II. p. Belmont declared
that the battle cry in 1900 will be
"nothing more, nothing less" than
this: "Are we to be controlled by the
cosmopolitan money power, or are
we to be freemen of this great repub-
lic?" This is generality that cannot
even be described as glittering. Judge
Tarvin asserted that the next plat
form will protest against the abuses
of organized wealth. statement far
from luminous or definite. Bryan
himself dwelt on imperialism, on
army increase, on trusts, aud even on
the income tax. His argument for
adherence to silver was painfully
shallow and perfunctory, and we will
not do him the injustice to believe
that he succeeded in imposing on him
self.
Take this sample: "If the gold STAN
dard was un-American in 1896, it is
un-American now." Tue, very true,
0 Nebraska sage; but how does this
meet the only difficulty now confront
ing the extremists-namely, that
thousands upon thousands Of Demo-
Gratis who in 1896 thought the gold
standard was anti-American now per-
ceive their mistake and realize that
it was not then and is not now any
thing of the kind? Mr.. Bryan, to con-
vince these people-and his recent
experience with the Democrats of the
Middle West has shown Mm that
their name is legion-must bring
fresh proof and new evidence; and
where will he obtain this?
When he says that he cannot drop
the money question because that
question will not drop the people, ho
is belied and confuted by the de-
velopments of the last three years. In
the return of activity and prosperity,
in the general demand for labor and
the advance of wages, the people find
convincing evidence of the beneficial
and necessary character of stable
and sound standard of value, the COM
plete justification of gold as the sole
standard. Universal experience and
the logic of fact count for more with
reasoning men than assumptions and
idle denials.
1t is to be feared that the Chicago |
platform banquet in New York
brought little consolation to the
champion of the lost cause. The
New York Democrats think and feel
exactly as the Wisconsin Democrats
do. though they are not SO frank and
plaiu spoken.

Here is an article which may appeal to some Phoenix merchants who be- liere in the kind cf advertising re- ferred to:
 A Nebraska editor says: The other day when we were driving down town behind cur family rhinoceros, we came upon an aged man tearing q bridge to pieces and placing 1, upon 8 wagon. As the bridge was GIG we needed in cur business, We asked the nan what he was doing with it, and in which case, why 50. or words t3 thai effect.

its psWs were apt to be well filled 3n Sunday, and the branches of the trees
 in frcnt Of 1t worn with brides. The court house. marking the county seat,
 might have no other neighbOr than q general store and wretehed inn,
 but when some famous lawyer rose to
 defend 2 notorious criminal, hundreds
 and even thousands followed with
 flashing CT fearful eyes 1he dramatic
 action which accompanied his appeal.
 An important convention was n0t
 without gallery, because. it was held
 in Q town Of few inhabitants and 5be

Ill Georgia, there was given during the h2rd-cidar campaign 2 barbecue to which "the whole people of all Gaor- gia" were invited. It was attended by thousands; the orators, Of whom Yan- cey wGs one. spoke by day and by night; and it lasted week.
 These. in fact, were the true uliv2r5- itie5 Of the lower sOuth-che law courtS and the great religious and political gatherings. The man who wished to lead or to teach must be able to speak He could not touch the artistic sense Of the people with pictures or statues, O. verses CT plays; he must charm them with voice and gesture.

QUEER PATRIOTS. 9

One of the absurd features of tha appeals in behalf O. the Taga1s and Filipinos now fighting against tn zir own interests, is the assertion that they are ''patriots."
 The assumption of tha shriekeFs is that these people are in danger Of be- ing deprived Of their natural rights, that they object tc being passed from one oppressor to another, and that they are fully qualified to manage their own affairs. The facts in the case. however, do pot prove the con- tention. The mas 3es included in the several armies CT m3D5 now being chassd from town to town by the American teoops represent but 2 minor portion of the population. Their leaders represent but a small fraction of the people. and they fre sci. select | leaders having caIy tho idea of es- tablishing 2 dictatorship that would be az expressive to the peaL.a neIalls
