Patriotism OF the country. But, In
what has been done or left undone, there
Is little to disturb public confidence
The new session OF Congress will Ard
much to reconsider; and, with n new
set OF congressman coming fresh from
the arena OF public discussion, II NAV be
hoped that the difficult problems orIs-
Ing out OF our relations to the PhIlIu-
pines. Cuba and Porto Rico will BID dis
posed Of in way not only conserving
the interests OF those peoples, but also
wisely consolidating our new position
as the foremost power In the Pacific.
The opponents OF annexation of the
philippines have said oil that can be
advanced and more than can be legitI-
mately urged on the sentimental side OF
the question. It Is to be hoped that.
before the meeting OF the next Congress,
the public, may give due attention to
the far more serious questions of our
vast commercial interests In the Pacific.
and to the protection OF those interests
from the Inevitable hostility OF Euro
pean coalitions whose interests are
dramatically opposed to those OF the
United States. We have no recourse
but to favor policy OF free access to
China for trading purposes, equally
available to all countries. and at the
same time resisting all territorial ag-
gressions against that empire. With
our people intelligently and earnestly
committed to that'posltion. there Is SUI
ficlent support OF this policy In the at
titude of other governments to defeat
the designs OF the military powers
without resorting to war. and thus this
great question might be settled on a
permanently pacific basis.

BLACK JACK.
After Being Killed Four Or Five
Times He Is Aqdin Heard From.


The Black Jack gang after robbine
the postoffice and store at San Simon,
went toward New Mexico,
| A posse tracked them to Stein e
Pass, and the last trace of the despe-
radoes was in Animas Canyon in New
Mexico. Information received by the
Albuquerque Citizen, from San Simon
says that the posse is following the
robbers and hopes to capture them
with the assistance of posse organized
in New Mexico.
There is "a reward of ST., 100 fer
Black Jack. Gus Thumb, manager of
the San Xavier hotel says that there
is no doubt but the Black Jack is the
leader of the band, and knowing the
desperate personally, Mr.. Thumb
says that he will succeed in getting
away as he has always done when pur-
sued. ST here are places in the CHR
icahuas" says Mr.. Thumb, where a
man can hide from the whole U. s. ar
my.
Black Jack has probably gone to one
OF his old camps, and the public will
not hear of him again until he gets
ready to make another raid.''
Black Jack has; been killed off four or
five times by Arizona.s and New Mexico
newspaper correspondents and once
by officers OF the law. He must have
as many lives as cat.
BrOnchO Bill's gang was lately
heard of in that vicinity, and the rob-
berry of the post Office it is thought is
more likely to be the work of some
memb bers of the ]atters gang.
