1 power. impartial and unfaing justice. and the
| largest measure of kindness which the natives
show themselves capable Of approaching.
Two features of the days tdings are espe-
+, cially salient One Is set forth In the statement
, that the American authorities have been mucn
| hampered In their work by the pernlclous piot'
tings and intrigues Of the so-called 'antl-eNpah
sionlsts" In this country. We have hitherto
EXPRESSED the conviction that the laworeaKers
In Luzon were encouraged In their evil ways
nv utterances made in the United States. 1t Is
now oxnIcitly stated that the loyal and we'll
disposed FIlipinos have by the same mallgn
influence been restrained from giving our Gov
ernment the allegiance and support they other
wise would gladly have given. They have been
made TO fear that the United States Govern
ment might after all, adopt the policy OF "scut-
tie" and leave them TO the tender mercles OF
the Tagal marauders. in which case, as they
were long AGO warned by Aguinaldo himself,
they could expect no mercy. II was wicked
thing thus TO menace and to mslead them, ana
il Is lamentable illustration Of the extremes
to which partisan malignity Will sometimes
carry men. even under the pretence Of phllan-
thropy It Is TO be hoped with some confidence
that by this time all such delusloEs are swept
away. and that on the one hand the lawDreak-
ers are assured of the remorseless earnestness
of this Government in subdung them to the
rule OF law and order, and on the otner the
lawfully disposed Filipinos are assured OF inns
Governments abiding fathfulness In giving
them protection.
The other feature of the case In when tnere
is more cause for exutation, is the admirable
conduct of our troops, both officers ana men.
Criticisms OF the plan of campaign have been
plenty. especially on the part of those who
imagined that all the intentions Of our COM
manders were published in advance for the aid
and comfort of the enemy. The only valid
criticism is that based on the outcome or IT,
and that must be unequivocally favorable. The
commanders. Otis, Wheaton, Macarthur, Law
TON and the rest have made no mistake Their
men in rank and file have never failed TO show
themselves worthy Of the best traditions or the
American Army from Bunker Hill TO San Juan.
Generally speaking, there Is little glory tobe
gained In fighting bushwhackers and savages.
Rut in this case the valor of the men, tnelr
fortitude under strange burdens Of climate ana
environment, their patience and humane for
bearance under unspeakable provocation, and
their general bearing In circumstances the most
irving and arduous American soldiers nave ever
known are above all praise. Our Army in the
field has given us no antlclimax TO the work
of our feet in Manila Bay. Less than that we
would not and more than that we could not
say.

that this particular agitation, as well as others

FOR "the west" and the lend of the road
have passed on The people who used
to go cunning for silk hats and each
other have passed on too, or have taken
up the more prosaic occupation of cattle
raising. In between the buttes the bot
ON lands are tufted thick with the nu-
tritious buffalo grass and though the big
beef "out6ts" aren't feeding many cattle
there the residents have very respectable
herds running the range. The sure
thing cowboy is not a rare sight and in
nine cases out of ten he's a gentleman
clear through. He has his peculiar
names for things, but they're expressive
and many times amusing. Thus the
young fellows who come out to Eaton's,
having inherited the boiled shirt habit,
are known up and down the Little Mis-
souri, as "Eaton's dudes" and the ranch
building used as their dormitory has be-
come, by an altogether natural process,
the dude pen" But between the cow
puncher and the dude there exists a Pc
culiar bond of sympathy for enough ap-
parently ~listless dudes have made rat
Ting good cowboys to gain respect for
the class on the range.
REASONING BoSToNIAN.
While the Bad Lands begin in North
Dakota just east OF the Montana line,
one doesn't feel there as if he had reach
ed "the west" Especially is this the
case when he meets the people. Ex-
| ceptions to this statement must be made
in the case of people from Boston.
There was on the w%est-bound train with
me a counterpart Of Charles Dana Glib
sons bishop-a benevolent, corpulent
old gentleman with a clerical vest, a bag
gy chin and a mild blue eye. When he
said he was from "Bahston" nobody
doubted it in the least and it was APP
parent in his every action that he was
far, far from home.
"Sad, really sad to see the fields look
ing so patched and brown" he said to
his vis-a-vis in the smoking room.
"No, you're wrong" was the reply.
THAT'S buffalo grass and it's not good
for pasturage till it is brown-'cured on
the stalk they call it."
Really
"After it's brown, cattle fatten on it;
while it's screen they don't seem to thrive"
Really! Really"
Then there was a long pause during
which it became apparent that a large
and heavy idea was beating its way to
formulation in the bishops" brain. Fin
ally it came in this wise:
"But is it not a fact, young man, that
the buffalo grass is becoming extinct
with the extinction of the buffalo?"
If any Boston man doubts this story,
the name and address of the "bishop"
will be furnished upon application

THE Atkinsonians cannot get
much comfort out of such utter
ances as the following from Edi-
tor Phil Short of the Devils Lake
News, sergeant in Co. D.:
The question of maintaining the
supremacy of the American flag
on the Philippine islands is not a
political one. While war is in
progress no loyal American can
do other than supportthe admins
tration in the work of carrying
that war to a successful termi.
nation. The question as to wheth-
er the war is right or wrong makes
no difference. If the war is
carried on wrongfully and will, as
some claim, work injustice to the
Filipinos, there is but one way to
remedy the matter. Bring the
conflict to a successful termination
and then if injustice has been per-
petrated, rectify it. No true, 10y
al American can ever wish tor the
soldiers of this nation aught but
success. The Atkinsonians now
at large in this country are not
Americans-they are traitors ano
should be SO treated.

A Great English Statesman's Secret.

The secret of a celebrated English
statesman's long life was his systematic
way of eating. Every bite of food was
chewed thirty times before swallowing.
The result was he naturally enjoyed good
health. Most men and women bolt their
food, and eat things which were never
intended to be eaten. They become
c%ostive, have a bad complexion, lose flesh,
are irritable and nervous, and the first
thing they know they are "played out"
1t is gratifying to know that Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters cures stomach troubles.
1t is a purely vegetable medicine that
has stood the test of many years 1t
cures cases which seem to be hopeless.
Sufferers from any disorder of stomach,
liver or bowels should try it.
