many people in the formation OF as

There seems to be a determination,
upon the part OF the conservative peo-

reform in this respect. Precinct as
sociations pledged to wage war upon
the use OF money aud whisky or any
other corruptions will be formed, and
a general movement, without regard
to party, to obtain full and free
expression of the voters of the coun-

They are not concerned about tn"
success of any party, but they are
concerned about the fairness Of our
elections, let the result be what 1t
may.

IN SPITE of the rose hucd dispatch
es iiCm the Philippine islands, the
impression is Lecoming general that
the campaign has been a failure and
that it will require large sacrifice Of
hfe and large expenditure ofmoney,
before the United States will have
control of the island. The prospect
for long continued warts excellent,
unless some nations actuated by
"humanitarian" motives should inter
fere and demand that the slaughter
of the natives shall cease. If reports
Ofexcesses and outragcs committed
by American soldiers, as written by
some of our soldiers, he true, there
is sufficient reason for Intervention.
