 MaCArthuF Infantry.
WILL BE GIVEN LARGE ARMY
MARINES TO PLAY IMPORTANT PART
Seven Hundred of Them Will be As signed to Southern Luzon, Which is the Hotbed of
 Insurrection

Chicago. September 11-A special to the Record from Washington says:
 "The friends of General Otis are becom- ing hopeful that they will succeed in hav- ing him retained in his present command. Last week they were deeply discouraged and one, high official of the war depart ment, admitted that he believed popular clamor" would result in his friends recall and the assignment of General Miles or General Merritt to Manila
 Will Be Given Large Army
 The prediction Is now being confidently made by General Otis admirers that he will be permitted to demonstrate what he can do with a large army before being cen- sured for his failure to make more pro- gress during the last campaign.
 It is impossible, owing to the conflicting interests at work. to state positively how the contest for supremacy will terminate. General Miles friends are as confident as are those of General Otis but the drift of feeling now seems to have turned in favor of the latter.
 Plans have been adopted at the depart ment, however under which General Law ton and General Macarthur are each to be
 
 visions and they will begin operations just as soon as the rainy season is considered at an end
 Lawton VIII Command Cavalry
 The cavalry will be under command of General Lawton, while General MacAr- thurs command will be composed prnci- pally of infantry. One command will oper- ate to the north while the other will prob ably cover the south. The president has directed that the navy cooperate with the army in the fall campaigs, but it is ex- pected that it's work will be generally con fined to blockading. few of the smaller gunboats will, however, be sent as far in- land as the conditions will permit.
 The marines, too, are to play an impor- tant part in the operations in the vicinity of Cavite. Within short time nearly TOO marines will be on hand in the Philip0nes and they will be assigned to duty in the southern part of the island of Luzon, which is the hotbed of the insurrection. General Macarthur and General Lawton will be held responsible for the campaign in their territory.

the faintest idea of what "the plans of
this government" are respecting Cuba2
If Abraham Lincoln was now alive
and should utter such sentiments as he
used to express he would be denounced
as "copperhead" and "traitor" by i'm
perialists, and the post office department
would refuse to permit his writings to
60 through the mails. Here, for in
stance, is one of the utterances: "When
the white man governs himself that self
government: but when he governs him
self and also governs another man that
is more than self-government-that is
despotism."
President Northrop of the state uni
versity is not an expansionist. In his
speech at the polltical-imperlalist meet
ing in Minneapolis, he said: "For my
self I do not desire that the United States
should hold the Philippines as colony.
We don't want to go into contest for
the acquisition of colonies all over the
world. We have territory enough at
home without that. Let us cultivate at
lhome equality, fraternity, justice and
charity"
