ADMIRAL AND A~GUINALDO.

washington Times.)
In regard to the George Washington
Lafayette Lincoln Aguinaldo of the
Boston propaganda, Admiral Dewey is
opposed to the view taken of that indi-
vidual by u long-range philanthro-
pists. He says that Aguinaldo, though
cunning and bright, is a mere figure
head, and a tool of much brainier Ia
gals behind him. Formerly, he was a
junior clerk in the navy yard, and his
followers We're stablemen and servants.
A far ADLER man vas General Luna,
whom Aguinaldo enticed to his head
quarters and then had murdered.
So our seditious doctrinaires and
strict destructionists are likely to gath
err rather cold comfort from anything
the hero Of Manila is liable to say about
independence and the consent of the
governed; nor will the black and tan
idol of their alteration receive much ex-
ira gliding at his hands. They have
many things to learn, but, perhaps, even
they will not need to be told that what
Admiral Dewey thinks on the subject
of the Philippine situation or our proper
policy in connection with it, the country
will be reasonably sure to accept and tc
act upon as the right thing.

NO FLAG FURLING IN OHIO.
(st. Louis Globe-Democrat.)

' wv 1oNAo WV L..
The campaign in Ohio in 1899 Is re-
ceiving the attention of the whole coun-
try. The shrewdest and most unscrupu-
lous politician in the United States is at
the head of the Democratic ticket. If he
cuts down the Republican majority to
small figures he and his supporters feel
that he will be able to command the
vice presidential candidacy in the con-
vention of 1900. But, more important
than any possible effect which the cleo
ton can have on McLean's fortunes is
the effect which it will have on the two
parties in the campaign next year. The
issues of national honor, as represented
by the maintenance of al honest dollar,
and of national expansion are involved
in a particularly direct and emphatic
degree in the election in Ohio this year.
The 101, 900 majority which John
Brough, the Republican and Unionist
candidate for governor, received in
Ohio in 1863 as against Vallandigham,
proved that the sentiment of the north
was with Lincoln instead Of Jefferson
Davis. When Hayes carried the state
in 1876 the greenback imitation tide i'm
mediately started downward all owe
the country, and the cause Of honest
currency was never seriously assailed
afterward until the era of silverism be-
gan. The Republican victory in Ohio
in October, 1880, showed that the Re-
publican apathy, registered in the cleo
ton in Maine a few weeks previously,
had been overcome, and that Garfield's
triumph a few weeks later would be
certain. The brilliant victory which will
be gained by Nash in the coming cleo
ton in Ohio will prove that a Ascent
dollar is still as hateful to the country
as 1t was in 1896, and that fiag-furling
s just as unpopular with the American
people in 1899 as 1t was in 1868.

There is one thing pretty sure of hap
pening if Aguinaldo and his followers
ever nave complete control of the Phil
ippines. The Catholic orders will be
banished or restrained, and their prop
erty confiscated, as was done in Mexico.
One of the primary objects of the Fill
pine rebels was to seize church proper
ty. For two years they have been i'm
prisoning priests and subjecting them
to all sorts of barbarity. They seem to
be animated by a feeling of ferocious
hatred toward the Catholic orders. Ii
Aguinaldo were allowed to be the mas
ter of the Philippines there would not
be much room for the Roman Catholic
hierarchy, but if the Americans con-
tinue in control they will secure to ev-
cry priest the right to go where he
pleases and to administer the rites OF
his church.

In 1890 in his country the iron indus
try employed 500, 900 men, the cotton
and the boot and shoe factories en-
ployed 1872, 600, while 60, 900 We're given
work by the silk and rubber trade. The
industries named are now employing
450,0 900 more people than in 1890, and in
pie, they are employing 1,342, 900. If
there had been nine years of free trade
the figures would show a decrease in
the number of people employed, I'M

Many of the mining papers are taking
a fling at Edison's new process without
knowing anything about it, just because
it is customary with those who claim
to understand mining processes to sheer
at everything new. Of course, most of
the new processes are failures. But the
filings will not prevent the Edison plant
being built, for its hackers are satisfied,
and they know what the method is, and
have seen it in operation. If it be a
failure, more is the pity. If it succeeds,
then every part of the mining country
may be benefited by Edison's genius.
The enterprise will be inaugurated in
Santa Fe county soon, and the entire
mining world will eagerly await results.

PRESS COMMENT.
NO TRUST.

~
A lake vessel that cost $210, 900 to
build last year cannot be duplicated
now for less than $500, 900. But there is
no trust" or semblance of n in the
shipyards on the great lakes. The diff
ference in cost is due to the advance in
the prices of the materials used in the
construction of the vessels, and to an
advance in wages. But even with this
large additional cost the ship owners
make it pay. Contracts We're made
early in the season at 60 cents a ton for
bringing iron to Lake Erie ports from
Duluth. Now the rate is more thar
double that sum, and contracts cannot
be made for mex year at less than 81 a
ton. AS no trust appears anywhere
in this business, and the tariff has moth
ing to do with it, Mr.. Bryan and his
followers will have to concede that it is
merely the result of the increased de-
mand due to the great prosperity under
the Mckinley administration.

So, after all, England had a perfect
right to the country she claimed, and
which the United States would not per-
nit to be taken from Venezuela with
Il arbitration and proof of ownership.
At least the board of arbitration has de-
cided that the claim of the British was
just, although Venezuela secured a
small slice of marsh land that was
probably not wanted by the other
claimant. The rich forest country be-
longs to England. However, it is better
that the matter has been settled in this
way than for forcible possession to have
been taken from a people who believed
the territory belonged to them. And the
action of the United States convinced
the European countries that none Of
them may hope to hereafter ecure any
thing on this continent which does not
belong to them now.

In a barroom row at Ell Paso two days
ago a man was shot by a friend of n
of the parties. Another friend was
about to be mobbed by a crowd when
a witness turned up who knew the sus-
pect did not fire the shot. The suspect
ed mar had a narrow escape. The
guilty one was in Jail before the mob
found him, and was thus saved. All the
circumstances led to the belief that the
party first accused was guilty. Any per-
son who joins in mobbing n who has
| not Deer tried is liable to have the she'd
| ding of innocent blood charged to his
account. Courts were instituted to de-
liberately ascertain beyond a shadow of
| doubt who commits such crimes, and
then to infict punishment. The best of
innocent men may be mobbed if excited
| people incapable of exercising judgment
always grab and hang the man who APP
| pears to them to be the criminal.

IRRIGATION FOR THE PLAINS.
(Hillsboro Advocate.)

NIliiiSDclo <AuNoNdlC.J
Hon. w. Fl. Andrews, of Lake Valley,
Sierra county, is about to introduce a
new feature in the way of prospecting.
Mr.. Andrews has had shipped here two
cars of artesian we'll machinery, which
he intends to set up at Andrews and
drill for water. This is something that
has never yet been done in this county.
and should Mr.. Andrews attempt prove
successful it will open a channel for in
vestment that will greatly exceed that
of mining. Why? Because We have
hundreds of thousands of acres of land
that will produce the finest wheat and
corn that the world ever saw, if water
can be secured in sufficient quantities
tiers to freeze the spring crops, nor do
we have those fearful hot spells that are
so destructive; and, in fact, our facili-
ties are second to none, if we only had
an abundance of water. If an artesian
we'll could only be sunk, say in the
| neighborhood of Osceola, there is
! enough and in that valley, extending
i from the river to Deming, to make
| many hundreds of farms, and two or
/ three wells at different points would be
| sufficient to irrigate the entire country
| for twenty-five miles around. If Mr..
! Andrews does strike a vein of water it
| will no doubt come up with great force,
i because he is at the foot Of the Black
/ Range mountains, and the water will
! have enough fall to throw a stream Of
water several feet high. If Mr.. An
| drews' efforts prove successful we will
have good cause to thank him as the
founder of an industry that will make
a paradise of this section of New Mex
Il leo.

The Deming Headlight, during the
