president must decide
II the war is to be continued in the
Philippines, and this seems to be the
policy of the administration, for all
overtures of peace mgde by the Fill
pinos except they accompanied by un-
conditional surrender, have been
spurned, then it follows Mckinley
should at once enlist az army that would
crush. out the insurrectien with one
grand swoop. And the official who
advocates the immediate crushing of
the Filipinos gives good advice to Mr..
Mckinley
The manner in which the compaign
has thus far been conducted has been
little short of murder to the American
army, and if it is longer pursued the
date when peace will be declared is
long way in the future. The president
has duty to perform. and there is no
possibility of lodging it. He must
either give up the idea of whipping
the Filipinos into subsection. or he
must send enough men TO the archi-
pelago to subdue the insurgents and
hold the territory taken. 1t probably
would be an unpopular move to call
for more troops now, but they are
stern facts to face that anybody but a
putty man would deal with regardless
of consequences. and even our plant
president must deal with sooner or
later. He must do one of two things
either instill a little humanity into
his being and accept the overtures OF
the Filipinos for an honorable surren-
der, or back up his imperialistic pomp
with an army that can whip the is
landers and hold them in subjectiOa.
Either measures would be unpopular
and would probably lessen his chances
of being reelected, but to refuse to &C
cept either of these inevitables will
certainly insure his defeat, and at the
same time merit the contempt of the
nation. Mckinley must act soon, for
the people are becoming tired of the
play war he has been prosecuting since
he forced American guns to be trained
upon the Filipinos four months ago.

PETER has turned republican, populism
is dead and Funston owns the state and

A PETITION TO
THE PRESIDENT
Volunteers Want to Be
Mustered Out at
Manila.

NEW YORK, May 3l.-A special to
the Herald from Manila says: Infor-
nation has been received here that
satisfactory results have attended the
movement among members Of the vol
unteer regiments in Manila for the
establishment Of a large American
colony in the Philippines.
Four thousand of the volunteers
now in the island are reported TO have
signed q petition to the president and
secretary of war, praying that they
.-seiiSe.thsir discharge In Manila, in
stead of at the place of enlistment. II
was explained that they jeGl..yad To
Philippine islands "offered rare op-
portunities for industrious and enter
prising Americans to make for them
selves homes" and that they desired
to remain "for the purpose of taking
part in the deyelopement of tho min
ing. agricultural and industrial re-
suits of the islands"
The petition stated that in the event
OF favorable action by the government
those signing it pledged their united
support in upholding the laws and
protecting the interests of the United
States. and would, II so desired, be-
come members Of national guard or
such other organization that might be
necessary for the protection OF Ameri-
can interests in the Philippines.

HIGH PRICED PROSPERITY.

If profligacy in governmental ex-
penditures can bring prosperity to a
nation, then we are on the high road
to prosperity. The Dingley tariff is
the highest tariff law ever enacted.
The war tariff of 1852 was a mild meas
ure in comparison. The Dingley
schedules are so high that all our
manufacturers have to do is to COM
bine into trust and fleece the Ameri-
can people without any fear of foreign
competition, because the high duties
upon imports is an effective barrier
against goods from abroad. The war
tax on domestic commerce is relied
upon to produce the major part of the
revenues andrun the government, pay
pensions, etc. During the past year
the government borrowed $500, ,O00.00
and has spent the same. The secretary
of thh treasury figures that the daily
receipts of the government for the
present year will average little more
than 81 $3.50, 900, while the daily expen-
ditures will amount to little more
than Sl,889, 200, or a daily deficit of
$306,000. If out of this vast expendi- 4
ture. contracting for ships and trans
ports and army supplies, Hanna can
not raise a campaign fund to carry
Ohio and Nebraska this fall and nom-
Inate Mckinley next summer, he will
lose his reputation as financier ant
and a:politiclan.
People who own homes or expect to
acquire homes will find that anything
having the semplance of prosperity
based upon such proaigate expendi-
lures is a delusion and snare. There
are no exemption laws against the
tax gatherers who will with remorse-
less hand visit the iniquities of today |
on the poor and the children of the |
poor for many years to come.

MODERN "COPPERHEADS."

The plant tools of the present ad-
mistration are by no means choice in
the terms they apply to those who
stand up for true American principles,
opposing the imperial idea of forcing
government upon people without
their consent, and apply to them the
name of "copperhead. This is indeed
gracious on the part of those immacu.
late beings who set themselves up as the
only true Americans. but they probably
are excusable, for they blindly follow
party lead without considering justice
or right. They do not stop to consider
the principle involved, or the prin.
ciples upon which this grand govern
ment is $ounded. If they did they
would readily realize that they are the
real copperheads, the tories of the
present age. They occupy the same
position as did the old tories of 1776.
Those tories accepted the divine right
of kings, they were ready to sacrifice
freedom on the altar of Imperialism,
they were enemies to liberty.
In what do the imperialists of today
differ from them? The tories of 1776
said by their acts that King George,
because he was powerful had a right
to oppress people and govern them
contrary to their wishes. The imper-
ialists OF today say because the United
States is powerful, we have right to
force upon the Filipinos a government
they do not elect to accept. King
George did not propose to give the
people of America the right to govern
themselves, and the tories sustained
him. Imperialists of today do not
propose to give the people of the
Philippines voice in chosing their
form of government, but because we
are mightier than they we will dictate
to them what form of government they
shall have. The imperialist therefore
stands in the same shoes worn by the
tories of 1776, and if there are any cop.
perheads they are those who are in
opposition to the American idea of
independence, who are overriding the
principles for which the revolutionary
fathers fought, and would establish
tyranny where freedom should reign.
The real copperhead should be more
cautious about the confusing of
terms.

PORTLAND, May 30.-Portland be-

1t is great day for Portland in gen.

Over 5000 of the latter ARE in the

1t Is really refreshing to read the
editorials in some republican papers
that are endeavoring to show what a
mistake was made in giving the right
OF suffrage to the negro and attempt
ing to educate the black race. The
object of these editorials is to con-
vince the public that the inhabitants
of our new possessions, who are liken-

MANILA, May 3l.-Details regarding
the capture by the Filipinos OF two
officers from the hospital ship Relief
have just been obtained. The Relief
lies in the harbor in front of this city.
Third Officer Fred Heppy and The as
sistant engineer, Charles Blanford,
rugged sail on one of the ships boats
and went sailing along the shore on
the south, opposite the insurSent
lines.
The boat became becalmed near the
shore and some native canoes with
Filipiaos on board put out and cap
tured the two men, who were unarmed,
and also took possession of the boat.
The Monadnock quickly sent boat
with landing party under cover OF her
guns and shelled the shore briskly.
The natives, however, rushed the
prisoners into the woods before the
Monadnock's boat reached the shore.
Persons on board several other ships
saw the affair through glasses, but
were unable to prevent the capture Of
Heppy and Blanford.
Friendly natives, arriving from the
country around San Isidro and San
Miguel, report that reign Of terror
has prevailed since the American
troops were Withdrawn from those
parts of the island. The insurgents
who return are dealing vengeance up
on those of their countrymen who have
shown any friendship toward the
Americans during the latters occupa-
tion Of the territory. The friendlies
declare that unoffending people are
being murdered daily, and that their
houses are being burned and their
property con6scated.

AMERICA IS
THE LEADER
Her Peace Proposals Are
the Most Practicable.

THE HAGUE, JuneI.-rhe American
project for an International arbitration
tribunal was accompanied by memo
randum, as follows: "The proposal
herewith submitted takes its form as a
resolution looking to action outside of
the conference from our instructions.
The proposal shows the earnest desire
of the president of the United States
for permanent international tribunal
for arbitration between nations and
the willingness of the president to aid
in the establishment of such tribunal
upon the general lines indicated.
"The commissioners from the United
States are ready, without insisting upon
the form of their own resolutions, to
try to develope the proposals hereafter
submitted, so that they shall embody
what is essential in this plan. 1t seems
to the United States commissioners
that it ought not to be difficult to as
sociate with the several proposals, as
they may eve ntually be developed for
mediation, plan for a permanent
tribunal of arbitration which will EN-
body what is essential in the American
resolution"

DAMAGE SUITS
Filed Against TWO Railroad Com.
pdnies In the Federal Court.

Two damage suits were filed in the
federal court yesterday for damages
against railroad companies, each for
SIS, 900. One is by J. N. Glover againsl
the Mexican Central railroad company
for personal damages.
Mr.. Glover was fireman on a
freight train coming from Chihuahua
to Ell Paso, on December 9, last. Be
tween Sauz and Encinillas there was q
head-on collision. Glover jumped
from the train and struck on his he ad
and shoulder, receiving injuries which
kept him in the hospital until day or
two ago.
The other suit is brought by W. E.
Cunningham against the Sierra Ma

Amount of Sleep Required.

A healthy infant sleeps most of the
time during the first few weeks, and in
the early years people are disposed to
let children sleep as they will But
when or years old, when school
begins, this sensible policy comes to an
end and sleep is put off persistently
through all the years up to manhood
and womanhood At the age of 10 or
II the child is allowed to sleep only
eight or nine hours, when its parents
should insist on it's having what it alb
solutely needs, which is 10 or II hours
at least. Up to 20 a youth needs nine
hours sleep, and an adult should have
eight. Insufficient sleep is one of the
crying evils of the day. The want of
proper rest and normal conditions of
the nervous system, and especially the
brain, produces lamentable condition.
