Judge Day, who was chief of the
American Peace Commission, emphat-
ically denies that the United States has
ever asserted a right to the PHILIPPINES
as matter of conquest. The ceding
of the islands and the payment of in,
demnity in the sum of SIC, 1000. 900 were
concessions for the ends of Immediate
peace. We held the bay, harbor and
city Of Manila under the protocol and
pending the conclusion of a treaty of
peace. By the cession, which was a
chief consideration for the speedy dec.
laration of peace, we gained as indis-
putable title to the Philippines as we
ala to California on the conclusion of
peace with Mexico. In both cases the
title gained was recognized by the civil
lied world as good. In each case the
concession was the effective means of
establishing peace. But we were mag
unanimous in the case of Spain and
agreed to pay and have paid her $50
OOO,OOO indemnity. 1t is worth while
noting that while we occupied Manila
and lay upon our arms awaiting the
conclusion of peace, the Aguinaldoites
were day by day engaged in digging
trenches, throwing up earthworks, sink
ing mines, and in every way preparing
to assail US, thus giving evidence in
advance or intention to make an assault
upon Manila, no matter what might be
the outcome Of the negotiations for a
treaty OF peace. In the meantime we
took no steps in defense We made
no trenches, threw up no breastworks

rejecting insultingly and bitterly upon
his civil and military administration
Of affairs in the Philippines.
Friday morning in the San Francisco
Chronicle" there appeared statements
from the officers of the Kansas regi-
ment and from General Funston deny
ing in toto the alleged interviews in
the Examiner" Such as were inter
viewed in the latter sheet assert that
they have been misrepresented, their
expressions tortured into statements
diametrically opposed to what they did
say. Others declare that they were not
interviewed at all, though statements
over their names appeared in the first
person. Officers Of the regiment add
that some of the persons alleged to
have been interviewed are myths; that
there are no such officers in the regi-
ment and that some Of the portraits Of
the alleged officers are fakes, their
originals not existing in the regiment.
Is there never to be an end of this
Infamous business? Is lying and trif-
ling with the names of men to go on
unchecked and nothing be done about
it2 Has not the public, even if the
direct interest in these matters? Shall
not society in the interest of truth and
10 the end that the public mind shall
not be misled and public opinion be
formed upon unsound basis, concern it
self sufficiently to put a stop to all this
kind Of infamy?
1t may be a very long look ahead,
but it is not a mere fancy or a dream
that gives US prescience of a time to
come when individual liberty to be a
liar and poltroon, will be so far linn
tied that mendacity in the press as far
as it affects the public mind, will be-

One may lie, misrepresent and walloW
in mendacious statements with little
need for check in most cases, since the
truth will assert itself But let US for a
moment contemplate the concern so
ciety may have when mendacious prac-
tices in the columns of widely circu-
lated journals are thrust beneath the
eyes Of the youth of the land, carried
into households and sown in the marts
without restriction or hindrance.
Shall not men reach that plane of
excellence in government some day
when the right to be a public liar will
be denied to any one; when without
interference with the private right to
falsify and grovel in the filth of un-
truth society will refuse to men the
privilege of assailing social order itself
by such publication of untruth, as will
corrupt public judgment and under
mine faith in public trusts.

AN ALLEGED" REPORT.

A San Francisco paper publishes
what purports to be report upon the
conditions in the Philippines made by a
Government secret agent The Cali
says that it secured a copy of this re-
port as filed with Assistent Secretary
Meiklejohn at Washington and that the
original is held secret by the Govern
ment.
The alleged report finds everything
wrong end to" in the archipelago, and
no one administering any trust faith
fully or wisely. AS to the insurgents
they are smarter than the Americans,
are whipping or deceiving us constant
ly, and on the whole we are in a bad
box and should be thankful if we get
out of it without dishonor. A whole
lot OF suggestions are made, however,
which, we are informed, if acted upon
according to the idea of the writer of
the alleged secret report, will set things
right, thus exa1ting this "secret agent
in matters of judgment, military pro-
cedure and civil administrat ton, above
the United States Commission, the
Commanding General, the whole line of
civic and military officials, the judg-
ment Of the President and his Cabinet,
and of all the distinguished and
thoughtful men who have visited the
islands and studied the situation.
Tho io
ernment has had any secret service
agent in the islands gathering inforna-
ton for it, rest assured he never gave
the snap away; he never permitted a
newspaper or any other agency to get a
copy Of his report; never stopped in San
Francisco to write it and then forward
1t to Washington. He never told any,
one on the face of this footstool that he
was Government agent.
Moreover, no Government agent
would write as this one is alleged to
have done. For the long-winded docu-
ment lacks every characteristic of an
official report. It is wandering, general
and indefinite. It is very largely here
say and deals in 'T was told's' so fire.
quently that one begins early in the
reading to ask why, if this is an official
report the Government agent is so
fearful about giving the names of the
witnesses upon whose alleged state
ments the report is based.
We would be safe in wagering that
the whole thing is a fake, a clean
swindle, the concoction of some adroit
reporter, who nevertheless has overshot
his mark. Fact is, there is such a mass
Of untruth sent out through the col
umns Of the sensational press that the
only thing a conscientious reader can
do is to push aside the whole mass of
matter that bears the slightest indica-
ton of improbability, and to reject
every publication in the yellow press
that is not backed by unquestionable
evidences of verify.

large number of parishes. Arlington,

through the Midway Valley enormous
growths have been obtained. Mere

all will be picked. Magnificent crops
or Goldings have been obtained at the

the latest pickings are not so good as
those gathered earlier. Through the
sutton Valence district, notwithstand-
ing the serious deterioration that af-

growths have been obtained, and but
