An Unpopular War.

It is q somewhat singular fact
that all the volunteer regiments
serving in the Philippines, with
the exception of one from Penn
sylvanis, are from Western States
Washington, Oregon, Wyoming,
Idaho, Montana, North and South
Dakota, California. Utah, Nebras-
ks and Kansas. Yet it is in these
States that the signs of increasing
dissatisfaction with the conduct
and prolongstion of the war ap-
pear to be most pronounced. The
Baltimore Sun makes this extract
from q communication to the New
England Homestead by Mr.. Her.
bert Myrick, the well-known wri.
tor, giving his personal OBSERVE
tions on q journey he has just
made of ten thousand miles
through twenty-seven States:
"The unpopulsrity of the war in
the Philippines increases in the
West with each Western boy who
| is killed or wounded in the at.
tempt to conquer q people who are
fighting for the American princi-
pies of Independence. The feel
| ing is intensified with each mail
from Manila, bring as it does a
mass of confidential information
that emphasizes the complexities
brought on by the un-American
policy of subjugation. The seri-
ously illuminating correspondence
is never printed, but it is having q
none the less powerful influence
upon public opinion, especially in
the Pacific coast States"
The Sun also makes the follow
ing extract from an editorial in
the Kansas City Times:
Give more Kansas boys were
offered up on the altar of expan.
sion on Sunday, and eleven Kan.
ssns were among the wounded al
Mslabod. This makes twenty
eight dead and upward of sixty
wounded in the Kansas regiment
in LuSon, q record that brings tha
issue close to home. Arc the 10
lands worth it2 Twenty-eighI
Kansas mothers, their gray heads
bowed in grief, are not alone ii
believing not The relatives and
friends of every Kansas boy pier
ced by an insurgent bullet are moi
the only ones who believe not
Every Kansas boy killed at Mani
la means fve hundred votes agains
imperialism, and i've hundred
votes in favor Of the rugged Amer
lean democracy of Jefferson ant
Jackson"
