Col. Reeve, who went out to the
Philippines as colonel of the Thirteenth
Minnesota, and is now home, having
been discharged at his own request, is
reported as deprecating the occupation
of the Philippines by the Americans
because" he says, cit seems to me we
are doing something contrary to ou1
principles in the past. According to
that then, the colonel would not have
had any progress made because it is
contrary to past principles. The use OF
steam and electricity and hundreds of
other things are somewhat contrary to
past principles, The telephone is a
mighty convenient thing, but it's use is
contrary to all past principles There
are some things, however, it is best tc
outgrow, and there are other things
that we have to.

CHARGED THE HILL.
A Soldier at Manila Writes His Brother
at Garden City.

7. G.. Ward, of Garden City, has re-
ceived letter from his brother, who is
member of theWashington volunteers
at Manila, from which we take the fol-
lowing extracts:
Manila, Feb. II, 1899.
Our lines and theirs have been very
close together ever since we have been
here, and some places the sentinels have
tried to walk the same plank on a
bridge, and their behavior had been
very bad for Uncle Sans boys. They
would drop their guns on our sentinels
and get their long knives and sharpen
them and run their fingers along to see
if they were sharp We had to take all
that but at the same time were making
preparations for a scrap. Could not
make peace with them on any terms.
Aguinaldo says only one government for
the island and he would be president of
that. Well, Saturday night. the 4th,
something happened and the big thing
was off. We were called out at about
10 clock and laid about until o'clock
when we had about fourteen miles of
firing line and we were attacked about
all the distance. We did not do much
until day light and then we gave them
fits. The insurgents had all the en-
trenchments that engineers could plan
but they were no good for Uncle Sans
boys We shot to kill and when firing
got dull would advance and the enemy
would retreat, or those that could.
When we commenced we were on left
flank of the insurgents, four companies
of the Washington, the Idahos and four
companies of the Washington in front
and we did not do thing to them We
were behind levee grown up and as
those in front drove them back we nail
ed every one we could. We got a good
many and We crossed over and got in
front facing hill about twenty feet
high covering about two acres we'll en-
trenched, with creek 40 feet wide, 3
feet deep between them and US with a
large river back of the hill about 200
yards wide, Well we could get within
300 yards of the hill under cover of tim
Der and levees and this position we got
and kept it for half an hour or so and
during that time the Idahos and com
pany of the Washingtons on the right
had driven every one of the insurgents
in to the river. Our major said we had
to take the hill and he set his sword
against bank, got his revover in hand
and said come on, and every one follow
ed or was with him. | was not last on
top of the hill. In the charge three were
killed and five or six wounded. The
charge was made about 10 o'clock and
that ended our fighting as no more in
surgents could be found. Of the in
surgents thirty were killed on the hill,
fourteen wounded and eighty prisoners
taken Between the hill and river was
almost string of dead where they had
tried to get away The burying detail
buried seventy-four in the trenches on
the hill and guess they did not have
to carry any very far The Washing
ton regiment has made name for it.
self Gen. King said that the fight on
the hill was the grandest thing he ever
saw I don't think one regiment has
much to say over another, as every one
had hard fighting.

KENYON WAS ALL RIGHT.

The new administration is not find
ing much to reform in the affairs of
state as they have been administered by
the Republicans. The members there
of attacked the Republicans severely
during the campaign, but they have
been forced to admit since that they
were mistaken. There are fusionists
who followed up Mr.. Kenyon as long as
they could, and when Mr.. Pope announc-
ed that there was not enough money left
to do the work as it should be done up
to the close of the fiscal year, they i'm
mediately set up the cry of extraya-
gance upon the part of the ex-public
examiner. But Mr.. Pope has come to
his rescue in the following statement
which is justification enough for any
one. He says:
Mr.. Kenyon has not spent cent ex-
travagantly or improperly. He has
simply used up all the money for the
support of the department. under him
and most Of what was to run it the rest
of the year. What l have asked is
enough to run the department as Mr.
Kenyon has done, with one man added,
and with enough to pay travelling ex-
penses. Out of the bank fees, which
amount to 50, 900. paid last June that
became available Aug. L. Mr. Kenyon
has spent 81, 200 in advance. He was
obliged to spend that much more than
the appropriation allowed to accomp-
lish as much as he did"
1t is not often, remarks the Red Wing
Republican, in commenting on Mr..
Pope's statement, that a campaign
SANDER meets with such complete refu-
tation as this from the hands of an Of
fetal of the opposite party, and one who
profted by it, Mr. Pope says that Mr..
Kenyon did not spend one cent extrava-
gantly or improperly; that he needed
all he had and more to protect the pub
lie interests; that he, Gen. Pope, must
have larger sum than was allowed to
Mr.. Kenyon; and that the latter was
compelled to make the expenditure in
order to keep the department going
even on an insufficiently wide founds-
ton. This is vindication enough, and
sweeps away completely three-fourths
of the platform on which the last state
campaign was fought But how many
are there of the fusionists who have
the manliness to confess, or even to
notice except by an eloquent silence,
the statement of the present bank ex-
aminer?

DIDN'T Know the difference Between Poi

A returned volunteer forwards the
following story to the Standard:
Now that the new veterans have told
many and varied tales of the hardships

it would not be out of place to have
one relate a humorous incident that
happened while sojourning in Honolulu
en- route to Manila. On the day we
landed in that paradise of the Pacific
we were greeted with pleasant smiles
and words of welcome from everybody.
A Kanaka with more than ordinary
about five of us, and after explaining
the different trees and palms, asked us
into his house, and, addressing himself
to one of Erin's representatives from
B company, asked him if he had ever
eaten any poi.
"Poye," says Pat: "sure and we had
poye three tonnes livery day up in Mon
tana."
At this the Kanaka went into an ad-
joining room and brought forth a bowl,
and. dipping his finger into it, in the
customary manner, asked Pat to have
some poi.
There's nav chrust on thot. Shure
thots not poye Dam well l know poye
when ! see it"
The balance of the crowd. who had
been previously wised up, fell off their
seats in Mysteries to the great embar-
rassment of Pat. When they recovered
sufficiently they all took a dip and q
lick.
