WHEELING. ocToBER Q. lso0.
Ioyous Demoeratic Now.

Here is some encouraging news for
the Democratic party Of this country.
1t will make good campaign material
next year. 1t is furnished by the Phil
ippIne Democratic manager possibly
out OF pure gratitude he feels for the
sympathy he is receiving in this coun'
try. In a proclamation announcing the
release of American prisoners, Aguin-
aldo notes that "in America there Is
GREAT PARTY that insists on the
government recognizing Philippine in
dependence. The party win compel
the United States to fulfill the prom
ises made to us in all solemnlty and
good faith, though NOT PUT IN
WRITING.
Then Aguinaldo declares that: I'VE
must show our gratitude Ito the Dem.
ocratlc party and maintain our posi-
ton more resolutely than ever. WE
SHOULD PRAY TO GOD THAT THE
GREAT DEMOCRATIC PARTY MAY
WIN THE NEXT PRESIDENTIAL
ELECTION, AND IMPERIALISM
FAIL IN ITS MAD ATTEMPT TO
SURROGATE US BY FORCE OF
ARMS"
Agulnaldo does not stop with this
strong support of his American allies,
but continues: There are some Amer
leans in the Philippines who have
Joined us, because Of their disapproval
Of what MR.. ATKINSON CALLS
CRIMINAL AGGRESSION When Of
fered chance to return to their own
camps they have declined"
So here we have the official admission
of several things. The overthrow Of
American authority in the Philippines,
treason among soldiers engendered by
Atkinson, the disgrace Of the American
Dag, while the triumph of insurrection,
butchery and treason will come on the
success Of the great Democratic party
in America"
What a magnificent inscription to
write upon the banners Of the Democ-
racy next year. and to carry through
the streets of our cities in search OF
votes! What an appeal to the pa
trIotism of young America! What
pleasure 1t will give the hearts Of the
widows and the orphans Of the SOL
dlers and sailors who have fallen. In
order that the Democratic party may
have the support of the rebel chief of
the Philippines! With what pride
Will the Democrats of the country, par
tlcularly those who left their homes
and enlisted In the army sent to the
philippines to fight for Old Glory vii!
feel at AguInaldo's triumph! Let the
inscription be posted on the doors OF
the Republicans throughout the land
in order thGt the whole people may see
how cruel and how treacheFous the
Republican party and the great hearted
Republican President are.

The decree issued by queen Victoria
on Saturday, summoning a meeting Of
parliament, and authorizing the calling
out of the twenty-five thousand reserve
troops, is q practical declaration Of " r
on the Transvaal republic, and may be
said to be the climax of the crisis.
On the other hand, the news from the
Transvaal is that the British forward
movements are counterbalanced by
Kruger's government, and some out
rages by the Beers are reported. There
are stories of brutal treatment Of ref
ugees by the Beers and many outrages
upon women and children are alleged
The London News records that the re-
port Of barbarIc actions has caused
thrill of horror at Cape Town. In one
instance seventy women and children
were packed in cattle truck so tightly
that they were unable to sit, and were
sIde.tracked for thirty hours without
food or water.
Humanity seems at last to be the Is
sue In the matter, and in view Of these
horrible reports from South Africa
sympathy on the part of civilization In
behalf of the Beers Is pretty certain
to be reversed. Future developments
Will be watched with no small degree OF
interest. OF course, the result is
foregone conclusion, but the effects can
not be foretold.

Volunteers and a Traitor President.
AS noted by the IntellIgencer last
week, a New Jersey man asked Edward
Atkinson what he would have done II
he were volunteer enlisted in the Uni
ted States army and his commander
had ordered him to attack the Filipino
insurgents. Atkinson replied: II
should have refused to fight in an un-
justihable slaughter of our allies" Uh-
der the law. and in accordance with
the oath taken by a volunteer, the pun
lshment for the conduct which Atkinson
says he would be guilty of is death.
The New York Sun publishes a let
ter on this matter of the oath of vol
unteer who swears allegiance to the
President, and not to the Union, and
that the President is already guilty OF
treason for having violated the consti-
tuition which he is bound to support.
when the President is guilty Of trea-
son, is the volunteer bound to follow
hIm?" This momentous question is
propounded by Stanley G. Leonard.
This is absurd. The soldiers oath
covers allegiance to the United States
and obedience to the President and to
the officers appointed by him to COM
mand the private. The Sun says, as
to the hypothetical case In which the
President is guilty Of treason, that Is
a question which cannot arise in the
volunteers experience. Neither the
constitution nor any law Of the United
States constitutes Prlvates Atkinson
and Leonard a tribunal to decide the
President is guilty of treason.
eff" says the Sun. Atkinson and
Leonard, in the presence of all the enc
my, whom they were ordered to attack,
should refuse on the ground that At
klnson and Leonard were convinced, af-
ter mature reflection, that the Com
mander-ln-Ch Chief whom they had sworn
to obey, had himself violated his oath
of office, thus relieving them of the
obligation to obey, they would be
promptly court-martialed and shot,
with the hearty approval Of all right
minded soldiers and civilians"
But the Sun takes a second thought.
It is possible that the reviewing author
ity might look them over and decide to
consign them to lunatlc asylum.
