A Hobo Round Up.

Marshal Dean true to promise,
raided the hobo camp yesterday,
morning at an early hour, and
caught eight or ten and made an
other haul this morning, landing a
few more behind the bars. They
will be tried as vagrants and put to
work on the streets, and made to
pay their fines and costs. Among
the lot captured was German, who
claims protection under the banner
of the Kaiser. He said he was no
hobo man, but had came here from
Rodessa, Louisiana, with 80 bucks
in his pocket. He came here for
the purpose of buying himself a
watch, which he did, paying SIG for
the same. He had the balance OF
his roll left, and meeting up-with a
man, and being invited to camp
with him, and share his bed and
bread, accompanied him to the hobo
camp and spent the night. When
he got up from the bed of earth,
and showed a few floating clouds
back, that had covered him, and
pushed up the chunks at the camp
fire, to warm, he discovered his
friend nit. but another hobo man in
his stead, He was told that his
friend, whom he slept with, had
received an urgent telegram, sum
moning him to Washington, D. c.,
to take a place on some Of McKin-
ley's investigating committees. The
Dutchman said his friend, before he
! left, took bis watch and money.
He requested the marshal to tele-
graph the general embassy at
Washington, a description of tn e
man and his watch and have him
headed of. The German was plac-
ed in the hold over with the bal
ance of the hobos.

A BRIBED PATRIOT.

Inthe correspondence relating to
the Philippines laid before the Sem
ate by the President, light is thrown
upon the gradatious undergone by
Aguinaldo in his attitude toward
the United States.
When Admiral Dewey gave him
passage to Manila he was living at
Hong Kong, whittier he had been
publicly deported some time before
by the Spanish Government, after
be had accepted a big brihe TO
abandon the insurgents. His re-
turn, which is related in letter Of
June last from Dewey, and his sub
sequent hostile movements against
the Power that had bought him of,
however CLOSED with patriotic ut
terances, constituted broken
pledge and a breach of personal
faith.
Consul Williams, who has long
beer on familiar terms With the
Malay leader, contributes some
facts showing the elevation of
Aguinaldo from the condition of
an humble fugitive, dependent up
on American assistance for rein
forcement in his native land, to the
puffed-up chief of furtive govern
ment, who threatens with his wrath
the authority that crushed Monte
los feet and forced the surrender
of the Spaniards in the Archapela-
90, if it does not forthwith with
draw and leave the islands to Agui-
ualdo and anarchy:
May IL Consul Williams wrote
the Department OF State how he
had received "scores of assurances
of the friendhness of the insurgents
to our country and to me, its repre-
sentative"
"Aguinaldo told me today" he
writes in a letter of June 16, chat
his friends all hoped that the Phil
ipplnos would be held as a colony OF
the United States"
Other correspondence of Consul
Williams show an attitude of SUBJ
mission on the part of the insur-
gent leader to the plans of the
United States forces. This condi-
ton of amity continued until last
September.
Since then Aguinaldo, having be-
come intoxicated with the taste OF
power, has changed his tune and is
posing as the Simon Bolivar or the
George Washington of the Philip
pines. He is playing for another
bribe or for a sound thrashing. He
ought not to receive the former -
St, Louis Republic.

North Carolina is determined to
be md of negro domination forever.
Legislature now in session is FRAN
ing a law to disfranchise ignorant
blacks. A remarkable thing hap
pened with the committee in charge
of the measure-it had been deci-
ded to give hearings to negro Lead
ers, and several who appeared ad-
yocated the law, as they said mot
over 5000 of the 1876, 900 negro vo-
ters in the state, were qualified to
form an opinion as to suffrage, and
"need in fact to be saved from
themselves" We commend the
Australian secret ballot law, and a
poll tax qualification, which has ef-
fectually shut out over half OF the
negro votes in Arkansas, We are
glad to see North Carolina coming
out of the kinks.

Many years ago such men as Abra-
ham Lincoln, Peter Cooper, John
Sherman, James G. Blaine and
many other great statesmen told
the people then what was in store
for their posterity-but the people
believed them not. However the
very conditions now exist-through
unjust money legislation-that these
men told were coming, Could the
people of today realize what the
conditions will be ten or twenty
years hence, unless radical reforms
are brought about, they would re-
volt before another thirty days
