Lii Hung Chang's interview
upon this governments position
in the Philippines, makes very
sensible reading. Mr.. Ii has a
whole lot of diplomatic sense and
his retort about the United States
not desiring to see them fight
among themselves is a good one.
"Let them fight it won't hurt
your government and you'll be
we'll out of it. He quotes Grant,
had he lived, of being against
any conquering policy. Old Lii
might make a good arbiter He
has been SO handy in keeping that
old witch, the Empress Dowager,
away from his throat he might
handle "Aggy' in good style for
us. Let's try, because to tell the
truth there's hardly one of us
really know what we want regard
ing the Philippines. One day we
feel as if we would like to see the
islands at the bottom of the sea,
then when they speak of yanking
down Old Glory, peers like its a
shame to humiliate the rag that
way, then we feel like saying
"shoot - out of the niggers"
This feeling may be ours alone
about what to do, but we'll bet it
isn't. Here's for Old Lii to take
the thing in hand.

turn to civil life and to take up the
thread of domesticity where it was

Report from Admiral Watson.

Washington, Sept. 26.-The navy de-

D|SPLEASED WITH GEN. OTIS
Advices from Washington Say the
President Will Soon Remove
the Present Commander.
DEWEY WILL BECOME AN ADVISER.
The Admiral Has Decided Views Upon the
Manner In which Operations Should he
Conducted In the Philippines and His
Opinion of Otis Is Not a High One, 1t
Is Reliably Stated.

Cincinnati, Sept. 26.-According to
the Washington correspondent of the
ommercial-Tribune, there is more oc-
casion to believe now than there has
been at any time hitherto that Gen.
Otis is to be superseded in the Philip
pines. The chances are that the change
will take place some time before active
operations are resumed. In some quar-
tiers it is stated that it will take place
within the next ten days, though it is
hardly possible that the president
would make the change before he re-
turns from his western trip. The rainy
season will not be over until about the
1st of December, and there is really no
necessity for making the change before
then.
1t is extremely likely that Admiral
Dewey will become the presidents adj
wiser in Washington on the Philippine
question. Dewey has won the conf
dence of the people, and it is known
that he has decided views on the Philip
pine question and upon the manner in
which the operations should be con-
Quoted there. His opinion of Otis is
not a high one.
The president was extremely dis
pleased at Otis action in the Chinese
case, and, it is understood, has repri-
manded Otis for presenting to shape
the foreign policy OF the United States.
Otis has been told to forward a full
explanation of his action in the cas-
and, meanwhile, the Chinese are to be
admitted to the islands without recog-
nizing the right of the Chinese govern
ment to demand their admission.
As far as ii successor to Otis is con-
cerned it is the merest conjecture to
mention anyone. The ch tnces are,
however, that no successor will be sent
from this side of the water.

Hold That Life Insurance Is sinful

Litchfeld, ILL.,, Sept. 26.-The preach
ers of the German Lutheran church in
this district assembled at Mount Olive
to discuss the relations of life insur-
ance to the Bible. The conference was
attended by about so ministers. These
ministers hold that money secured by
life insurance is the result of good luck
or species of a game of chance; that
life insurance is against the first COM
mandment, because it takes a mans
trust off God and places it on the in
surance company. They hold, there
fore, that life insurance is sinful.

so-called. - In reply beg to say that 1 have
never rendered. either oficially unoficialiy,
any opinion OF this kind. On the contrary, this
department has been engaged in bringing nu-
merous suits in the United States courts under
the Sherman act of July ,, 1890, entitled An
Act to Protect Trade and Commerce. Against
Unlawful Restraints and Monopoiies, in sever
al of which cases VIGOROUSLY that against
the Transmissouri Freight association, and that
against the Joint Traffle association, the result
has been the suppression by decree of the court
OF the offending agreement or association.
You may possibly have reference to a letter
OF mine to private citizen published several
months ago in the newspapers wherein called
attention to the fact that the only jurisdiction
that congress has over commissions or con-
tracts in restraint of trade was in relation to
those which directly affected interstate COM
merce. That this is true and that this is the
full extent of the Sherman trust act you will
ascertain by reading the decision OF the United
States supreme COURT in the case Of Hopkins VS..
the United States and the case of the United
States f. c. Knight company.
You are doubtless aware that it is not the
right or function of the federal government to
interfere with business transactions carried on
within the several states, except upon some
ground expressly authorized by the constitu-
ton. Congress can regulate directly that which
we understand by interstate commerce" but
