As appeared indeed from the original
dispatches that the sun gave TO the
world, the Fillplnos were fairly slaugh-
tered in their first encounter with the
race and guns of a higher civilization
Much as Kitchener moved down the
army of fanatics i'm the Soudan so did
Otis cut into the Islanders that set
upon him so unwarily. The spreading
of the news OF the loss ought To have a
auieting effect among Aguinaldo's fol-
lowers. Moreover. the wounded who
are being tenderly cared for by our
surgeons will have reassuring stories
to tell their comrades when they get
well and are released. Thus while
there is small reason To hope that this
first fight will be the last before
our Filipino fellow citizens settle down
comfortably. a first rate beginning has
evidently been made.

Although Senator Hoar esteems

East Greenwich folk are bound %

The Filiplnos might have taken
warning fron the fate of the spaniards
before tackling the American soldier.
Quite likely. however, our new and
obstreperous fellow citizens argued
that as both they and the Yankee had
demonstrated capacity for thrashing
the Don IL was worth finding out which
OF the two could beat the other. If the
Filipino isn't satisfied with the test al

he is a hard fellow TO convince. our

mob that Aguinaldo calls an army

battle while they contribute to the sad
