LIFE LOSS EXAGGERATED.
Early Reports From Brazos Valley Were
Inaccurate.

Inaccurate.
GALVESTON, Texas. July Reports
from special correspondent of the
News indicate that while the property
loss by the recentfloods HAS been enor-
nous, the loss of life has been greatly
exaggerated. According to the News,
only two lives have been lost in the
lower Brazos food. The planters had
received ample warning, but many ne
groes remained in the Brazos valley,
believing the water would not reach
higher than in 1885. From 1900 to
1000 colored people were caught in
the valley in Austin, Waller and Fort
Bend counties, and were forced to take
to the trees and housetops, but it IS
believed they have been rescued.

Here is what an English paper has to
say about how our country shall be run
on the British plan: The suggestion
that Gen. Leonard Wood would be
suitable person to fill the position Of
colonial secretary is one that will meet
with widespread approval. Gen. Wood
has made an enviable record at Santi-
ago and as colonial secretary would
give equal satisfaction" Wood, Of
course, as a splendid specimen of the
American soldier, but there is no show
for such a cabinet officer as colonial
secretary. The very word colonial is
abhorrent to every American. But
these impudent Englishmen never
seem capable of learning the real SEN
timents that govern in this republic.

are ready to go on short notice, and
their services would be invaluable.
Trained for years in exactly the same
sort of bush and guerilla warfare now
carried on by the Filipinos, strong and
hardy, bred in tropic chimes, the men
who fought for Gomez and Garcia
could battle with the rebels in the
most forceful fashion. Two difficult
problems would be solved together
how to crush the Filipinos and how to
provide work for the disbanded Cuban
soldiers.
