TO CRUSH AGUINALDO.
Otis Is Preparing for His Final Advance
Upon Filipinos.

Otis Is Preparing for His Final Advance
Upon Filipinos.
It is understood at Washington
that General Otis has so far matu-ed
his plans of campaign that within a
week or ten days he will be able to be-
gin the movement which is expected
to mark the destruction of Aguinaldo's
army.
Although stragglers and fugitives
may infest the army of Luzon for some
time, it is believed that after Otis has
delivered his next blow the insurgent
army, as an organization, will have
ceased to exist.
The new movement will be, it is
understood. by a combined land and
water attack, though it is not expect
ed that the navy's part in The program
will be particularly y prominent.
Otis has procured thirteen of the
Spanish gunboats formerly owned by
the Spanish government, and these
are to play an important part in the
DEVELOPMENT of the campaign.

Rev. G. G. Childress was arrested
by Sheriff Land at Fairmont, Gordon
county, Ga, upon n warrant charging
him with burglary. DR.. w. b. Vaughn,
a prominent physician, alleges his
house was burglarized and $500 taken.
He charges Rev. Childress with the
crime and claims to have recognized
him when the burglary was committed
At the commitment trial large
number of witnesses testified. There
was no direct evidence produced of
ChiIdress' guilt, but Squire Tinsley,
before whom the case was tried, saw
enough in the evidence to bind the
defendant over for appearance at the
August term of the superior court and
placed his bond at $500, which was
readily made.

A dispatch received at Washington
from Manila states that the enemy are
extremely active in the vicinity of
Malabon preparing defenses, evidently
anticipating an attack. They keep
we'll under cover. A small body of
rebels, however, emerged from the
jungle on the extreme left Friday
and fired upon the Kansas troops in
the trenches, fatally wounding Private
Cohen, of company B, and Private
Muser, of company E.
The Oregon volunteers and the
Twenty-second regulars marched to
the front Friday. The Third and Sew
enteenth regiments have disembarked
from the Sherman. General H. G..
Otis's brigade struck their tents Fri
day morning, and an early move is
probable.
Sixteen English refugees arrived

men in charge of various business in
terests declined to take advantage of
the opportunity to leave. Nothing
has been heard from the two American
planters at Calumpit since hostilities
began.
According to Filipino accounts, a
thousand Americans have been killed,
the fatalities being especially heavy at
Caloocan, where the United States
troops crushed like madmen against
storm of bullets"
Two Spanish prisoners, who have
escaped from Polo tc the lines of the
Kansas regiment, report that the Fill

Malabon and Polo. They add that only
ShatRn M. .hat the H9%S fsbsts leaders apparently
intend to stake their fortunes on a
fight at Malabon, where it was expect
ed an engagement would take place
Friday. If defeated, it is further
asserted, the rebels intend to disperse
to the swamps and mountains.
The rebels were putting their bolos
in front, believing that the bolosmen' 8
charms will avert the bullets. The
bolos Of the Filipinos greatly outnum-
ber the rifles in their hands. The
rebels are further said to have admit
ted that they could not stand the
American shells and bayonet charges.
The escaped Spaniards corroborated
the stories told of food shortage among
the rebels, and they added that their
hospitals are short of supplies.

already to influence not only the boys,

In dress, in social habits, in CONNER

working Of the leaven Of civilization

One year ago, under the Spanish re-
gime, there was not a public school
house in the city-that is, building
originally intended for educational pur-
poses-nor was there anything like q
system of free public instruction. Now

Bribery Investigating Committee Hears
Some Interesting Testimony.

Bribery InvestiEatinR Committee Hears
Some Interesting Testimony.
A dispatch from Harrisburg, Pa. !,
says: The legislative committee in
vestigating the charges of alleged
bribery in connection with the consid-
Grafton by the house of the McCarrell
Jury bill and the balloting for United
States senator held sessions Tuesday
afternoon and evening and some inter
esting testimony was presented.
Representative KeDdell, of Somer-
sel, testified that a resident of Bedford
county not member of the legislature
had told him if he could see his way
clear to vote for Quay for United
States senator he would receive $5, 900.
He declined to name the man.
Representative Laubach, of Phils-
ielphia, testified that man named
Frank Jones, of Philadelphia, asked
him to vote for Quay and he refused.
Quay he Laubach) could have the
chief clerkship of the mint or the
custom house.
Represo sentative Brown, of Union,
swore that man had offered him 5000
to remain away on that day of the first
Joint ballot for United States senator.
When he refused the offer was raised
to $500 and he was told if he would
20 into the convention and vote for
Quay the price would be altogether
different" All these offers were re-
fused.
Mr.. Brown declined to give the
name of the man to the committee, but
after much urging named ex-Congress-
man Monroe II. Culp, of Shamokin.
MIR. Culp represented the seventeenth
Pennsylvania district in the fifty
fourth and tifty-tifth congresses.
The first important break in the bal
loting for United States senator took
place in the Legislature during the day,
when all the anti-Quay republicans
deserted 'favorites" and cast their
ballots solidly for Congressman John
Dalzell, of Pittsburg.

Hardin said:
81 stand here to-day to defy the

stand for the people, stand with
the people, and / stand by the peo-
pie. The political trust which seems
to have been formed, and through
which the Offices, the gift of the peo-
pie, are to be parceled out to adj
herents and favorites, is as bad, il
rot worse, than the moneyed trust
by which they are to be deprived of
their right to earn living wages.
The one robs them of their votes.
The other robs them of their bread. y
The following language was also
used in discussing Senator Goebel' S
record and his advocacy OF the
election law:
ut is quite sufficient now to OBJ
serve with regard to Mr.. Goebel
that he has not fully escaped at the
hands of the people some very con-
siderable amount of Reputation him
self. A man less courageous after
the action of three great conventions
of the people covering the entire
State, repudiatIng in toto all that
he has urged-his little private po-
litical hobby-horses upon which he
and his little satellites were to ride
into office-would see that he and
his crowd were, as far as the peo-
pie were concerned, persona non
grata. He would appreciate that
if his mission was to fasten these
bills onto the party platform, it has
failed, that his platform is rejected
and his leadership repudiated, and
that there is now nothing left but
reflection and retirement.
If a failure of the railroad dis
trict conventions to endorse the
election bill is a reputation of that
measure, the Democrats of the
State should see and will see that
the State Convention does not make
the same oversight. The election
bill may be a ''hobby-horse,' but
the people are for it and do not en-
dorse the idea that it robs any man
of his vote. 1t guarantees an honest
ballot and a fair count, and the
only people robbed of their votes
are those who have no right to vote.
