ORIGIN OF THE KISS.

Down to Homeric times the kiss bore
surely material significance. Thus, in

THE ANTI-IMpERIALISTS.

Mr.. John Barrett charges that the
Filipinos have been incited TO continue
their war by the sympathy of the Bos-
tonian and other anti-lmperlalists have
been strengthened by recent state
merts made by Gen. Otis. The Fill
plnos apparently do not realize that.
however warmly certain grorps Of
Americans may sympauhize with them.
the American government liz commit
ted to the war and VIII pursue sit TIL a
conclusion is reached either by con-
quest ar compromise. In the interests
OF humanity II is only fair % hope that
compromise Will prevail. The anti-in-
perialists in the East would show
much more shrewdness IL. instead of
wasting time and energy by denounc-
ing the war. they would follow the poll
icy of some of their sympathizers i'm
the western press by endeavoring to
bring about an understanding between
our government and Aguinaldo, who,
according To so We'll informed and SO
ardent an impeIIalist as Mr.. Barrett,
is an inueilgent. If misguided, young
man The clearest statement regard
ing the Philippine situation has come
from DR.. Seaman A. Knapp, the well
known educator. who. from a residence
I'm the islands. has acquired a broad
knowledge of affairs there. "Aguin-
aldo and his voluntary following" he
says, represented at the commence
ment Of hostilities less than one-t tenth
fthe territory OF the Philippine ISL
ands and naver had even nominal con-
troll over two-sevenths. The people OF
the other nine-tenths OF the territory
were opposed TO him and his ambitious
schemes. over 80 per cent. of the prop
erty interests in the one-tenth OF ter
rltory within the provinces of his Tag
alog supporters were opposed 10 him
and his plan OF government. They had
no faith in his sincerity" Even more
important is another statement by Or.
