ALL this talk about tyranny and
the disregard of the rights of Il e
geople in the American treatment,
or proposed treatment. of the Fill
pinos is foolish. There is no
tyranny, either existent or contem-
plated. A people who were under
Spain's rule for three or four CEN
turtles are not likely to be subject
to any treatment by the Americans
of which they will have any serious
cause of complaint. The most
drastic sort of military rule which
any American commander stands
any chance to devise will be more
civilized and humane than the au-
thority which Spain exerted in the
islands for the past ten or twelve
generations. There is no intention
or desire to enslave the Filipinos.
The United States is forced by
circumstances to one particular
rule of conduct. 1t cannot give
the islands back to Spain, it can
not transfer them to any other
country, and it can not abandon
them, for this would result in an
archy and the ultimate appropria-
ton of the islands by some of the
European nations. The United
States must hold on to the Philip
pines. 1t must give their people
MS much voice in the management
of their local affairs as they can
use with safety to themselves and
to this country If the islanders
ire as intelligent and as capable
,s their admirers pretend, home
'ule will come to them early. st.

ITS DESTRUCTIVE WEAPONS
A Description of the Guns which
Yfnd . Place ON the Modern
Battfsship.

A 12-inch rifle is 81 feet long, with
four feet external diameter at the
breech, and weighs As tons. Its $50
pound shot driven by 43o-pound
charge of brown prismatic powder
leaves the muzzle with velocity ex-
ceeding 400 miles per hour and would
reach target at its effective range of
5h, miles in "a seconds, while it would
take the report of it's discharge 81
seconds to traverse the same distance.
At a range of IA miles this shot would
perforate 10 inches of solid steel The
230-pound projectile of the eight-inch
rifle will penetrate foot of armor at
the range of one mile. The six four
inch rapid-fire guns within the super
structure each delivers eight POUND
proiectiles in minute, while the 90
Founders distributed over the vessel
can be relied upon to clear an cnemy's
decks or TO disable torpedo boats by
maintaining terrific hail of explosive
shell capable of destroying any un-
armored position. The final offensive
resources of the citadel, writes Rich
ard Lee Fearn, in the Chautauquan,
are the four torpedo tubes, each pre-
pared to launch automatic and dirigi-
Bile destroyers containing $50 pounds
of gun cotton.

NEED OF THE ARMY.
Reasons Why Dental Surgery
Should Be Gwen Soldierss
An Urgent Plea Presented by Chariss
.. Stanley, ID. ID. s.. for the EN-
pIoyment of Dentists b, the
Government

In Leslie's Weekly DIR. Charles s.
Stanley presents the suggestion that
dentists be employed in the army. He
says: Our government surrounds her
enlisted men with comfortable sani-
tary quarters. supplies them with
GOOD. wholesome food and enforces
physical exercise for the proper main
-enance of good health. During i'll
ness the hospital facilities are of the
best, and only skilled surgeons and
thoroughly trained assistants are en-
ployed. The latest improved surgical
| instruments and the best medicinal
agents are used. regardless of cost.
All portions of the human organism
are guarded with care, excepting one
of the most important. the dental or
gans. What part of the physique is of
more Importance than the teeth? And
| il they be extracted or diseased the
whole system suffers, and perhaps be-
yond remedy.
We have neglected the blessings OF
dental science. Statistics show that
90 per cent. of the people of this coun-
try need dental attention, while only
20 per cent. receive the same. DIR. Otto
Arnold forcibly remarked, while
speaking on that subject to the Ohio
State Dental society:
''In our army there Is great sus-
ceptibility to the insidious process of
dental cnries, which is no respecteT of
"crsons. and has no limit; for other
diseases may come and go, but dental
caries, when once begun, like the
brook, goes on forever"

due to the stress of mastication, injur-

The following from the Macon
(Ga.) Telegraph shows something
of southern sentiment in regard to
our acquisition of the Philippines:
"When fate decreed that the south.
ern people should be whipped into
consenting to be governed, and
when history recorded the deed.
the Filipino lost his case-thirty
odd years before he seriously
dreamed of liberty, or feared
American oppression-that is, SO
far as his case appeals TO that sec
ton of our constitution cited by
Messrs. Hoar and Mason. In fact,
he lost it when that old democrat.
who was pointed to as an anti-ex-
pansionist in Chicago few days
ago, drove the Indians back from
the middle southern states, and
left the white man supreme and
undisturbed in these parts. The
case must rest, therefore, upon the
question of profit and lost Will
it pay to hold and govern them
That is the doctrine of the Cos as
set up in this country. If it will
pay we will whip them Ito con
senting And that is an easier jot
than the task of the Cos. We are
surprised that in his declining
years, Senator Hoar rs about .to
forget the lessons of his early
manhood. We have not forgotten
it in the south, and perhaps for
the reason that we We're at the hot
end of the steel, and it was scared
upon the tablets of our memories.
Will it pay, gentlemen; will il

We crow because District Judge

influence. Secret conferences between

that County Attorney HsrtzIer should
have exceeded his authority and made
this petty matter a county case, for as
a private individual he advised US to
$50 ahead and move the house"

it could only have a few days no
