Mr.. German of Maryland closed the de-
bate in open session. He said that he had
been opposed TO the ratification OF the
treaty and the annexation of the Philip
pines because those islands contained
population and people who could not be
assimiated into our own population with
out degrading the American people.
The senate then went into executive
session and at 3:35 p. m. resumed legislat-
i've business in open session, taking up
the reolution offered earlier in the day
by Mr.. McEnery.

Mr. Hoar then moved to amend the res
olution by inserting the words "or to force
a government upon them against their

Mr.. Aldrich moved to lay the amend

carried, IS to 30. At the instance Of Mr..
Aldrich the resolution was amended in
two or three verbal particulars.
The word pending" was struck out
from the resolution, as the treaty was no
longer pending. In the fourth line of the
resolution the said was struck out and
the words 1.-The Philippines inserted so

to making promises to people who have
their guns pointed at our troops.
From information which l have now
and ] say this on my own responsibility
I believe it was premeditated, preconcert-
ed and wanton attack made with the idea
of affecting the action Of the senate upon
the peace treaty. It is my own belief that
the instigation of the attack came from
the city of Washington. Hours before We
learned of the attack, in fact, on Saturday
night Agoncllo, who has been here as a
representative Of the Filipinos, and has
failed to receive any sort of recognition
from this government, silently folded his
tent, like the Arab, and stole away to
Canada. Somebody may be able to explain
that circumstance, but I have not heard
any explanation offered for it except that
he knew that the attack was o be made

alton by making promises to the Filipions.
Nobody doubts that we will treat them
with all the justice they may deserve"
Without any further remarks upon the
McEnery resolution the senate then, at

THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS

is due not only to the originality and
simplicity of the combination, but also
to the care and skill with which it is
manufactured by scientific processes
known to the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP
Co. only, and we wish to impress upon
all the Importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. AS the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co.
only, a knowledge of that fact will
assist one in avoiding the worthless
limitations manufactured by other par
ties. The high standing of the CALI
FoRNIA FIG SYRUP Co. with the medi-
cal profession, and the satisfaction
which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
given to millions of families, makes
the name of the Company guaranty
of the excellence of its remedy. 1t is
far in advance of all other laxatives,
as it acts on the kidneys, liver and
bowels without irritating or weaken
ing them, and it does not grippe nor
nauseate. In order to get its beneficial
effects, please remember the name of

said; "Inasmuch as we did it unto the

wayside. The man was bareheaded
and carried baby on his arm. BY his
side stood woman.
AS the grip car halted the conductor
swung from the front platform of the
trailer and stepped quickly forward to
aid in the loading.
But the man with his disengaged arm
assisted the woman to mount the steps.
Then the conductor reached forward
and grabbed the baby, evidently in
tending to pass it to the woman.

man, as he quickly backed away. Get

A TROLLEY RAILWAY FOR
IOWA COUNTY.

The project of building an cleo
trio railroad from Mineral Point to
Highland seems TO be well under way,
and there is a strong probability that
the line will be built. 1t is proposed
to run to the city Of Dodgeville and to
the villages of Linden, Edmund and
Cobb. It Is TO be a trolley line, now
so popular in various sections of the
country. Abundant capital is behind
the enterprise, which should meet with
the encouragement which 1t deserves.
We believe II carried to completion 1t
will greatly aid in the development
of the interests in this section OF the
