HERMAN's TORNADO VICTIMS.
Ten Dead and Twenty-Five injured in

tne Llttle Town.
Herman, Neb., June 15.-Ten per-
sons dead. rs injured, Of whom will
die, and half of the remainder suffer
ing from very serious wounds, sums up
the list of casualties resulting from the
tornado that wrecked this place on
Tuesday night. The loss Of property
aggregates $4,000 which means some
thing appalling for the inhabitants of
the little village, of which now scarce
ly anything remains. One hundred
buildings have been completely de-
stroyed Only six structures remain
intact, four residences, ,he school
house and one church.
The population is in pitiable condi-
ton. Those who lost their homes, and
there are about 500 of them, are abso-
lutely without resources and must de-
pend on public charity for sustenance
and chance to begin life over again.
The work of relief has already begun
in substantial manner. About hun
dred of the unfortunates are housed
at Blair. The latter town yesterday
raised 5000 as a relief and the Washing
ton county authorities appropriated
$500 for the same purpose. Two dozen
tents were sent out from Blair, and are
occupied by the homeless.

Manila, June 15.-Before dark Tues
day night the Fourteenth infantry
swan the Zapote river, charged and
carried the trenches, heavy fusillade
of artillery preparing the way and
covering the crossing. The insurgents
broke for the woods before the Four
tenth reached them. Sixty-tive dead
Filipinos were found in the trenches,
most Of them shot through the head.
Several five inch smooth bore guns

The Filipinos retreated several miles
southwark after Tuesdays engagement
to the strongly fortified town Of linus.
The Smelling of the American war
ships drove the rebels from Bacoor, s.
the Americans control several more
miles Of coast.
General Lawton, with his staff and
troop of the Fourth cavalry, started
yesterday to ascertain the nature Of the
insurgents position. He rode five
miles along the coast to Bacoor with
out discovering the enemy. He found
the town full of white flags, but there
were no soldiers there The women
and children, who had fed to the
woods during the bombardment, were
camping in the ruins Of their homes.
The shells had almost knocked the
town to pieces. Even the trees and
shrubbery were torn as by hail
storm.
Several hundred women and chill
dren came into the American lines for
refuge and the road from Bacoor was
covered all day long with professions
of them, on foot and in cars, driving
animals and carrying goods on their
heads.
The American officers estimate that
100 insurgents were killed and that
800 were wounded during Tuesdays en-
gagement. The Americans lost 10 kill
ed and 40 wounded.
The next battle will probably he
fought at linus.
The American troops will soon con-
troll the coast to Cavite.

A popuLIsr MANIFESTO.
Park ct al still AgitntinE for Initia-
tive and Referendum.

!
| Dallas Texas, December 1.--At meet
Ing attended by Milton Park and othe'
thick and thin populists in Dallas few
days since, the following address ITO the
honest voters of Texas was formulated
! 1t was made public today and is as fol-
! lows.
! AT a meeting of the peoples party
executive committee at Dallas county,
held at the Mercury Office November 20
1899, tie following statement OF principles
and purposes was unanimously adopted:
"Reali2ing the anomalous conditions
that environ the American people. both
in State and nation, in private as well MS
liz public affairs, and believing that true
patriotism must overtop party;sm ins this
great struggle, we invite the cooperation
of all good citizens in the work OF secur-
ing government of justice and equal
opportunity.
I'VE can not subscribe to the oft re-
peated party doctrine of 1.-The greatest
good to the greatest number but rather
to the more noble and unselfsh doctrine
OF 1.-The greatest good to all.
I'VE hold that all governments derive
their just powers from the consent of the
governed, and that the mere right TO
vote for rules does not constitute self
government. The people must not only
phave the right TO vote for public officers.
but also the right OF initiating and voting
on any legislation when they SO desire.
I'VE therefore desire the adoption of
the system of direct legislation, known
as the Initiative aud Referendum to-
gether with proportional representation
and imperative mandate. TO the end thar
the power of the people may be justly and
effectuaily exercised in government.
No In
many great and important reforms needed
ut the present time. but we hold that none
of these can be ACCOMPLISHED until the
right to rule has been restored 20 the
people.
I'VE believe 1t will be impossible TO
secure direct legislation without unioh
OF all ieformers, and we therefore declare
our readiness TO join with all persons
who are ready to make direct legislation
a common cause. aas
ITO this end, we believe our National
executive committee should cooperate
with other organizations, having in view
the same purpose, and Il possible to Or
ganize into one grand army. all who are
willing TO trust the people with the actual
power and opportunity of self govern
ment.
II permitted to see this much desired
union consummated, and the hosts of re-
formers materalized under one banner,
we pledge our sacred honor to strive in
every honorable way TO remove all OBJ
stacles calculated to cause dissAnsious
and divisions, to forget the animosities.
present and future. and buoyant with the
prospects OF higher and nober civlliza-
ton, 10 press forward until victory Is
ours and we are in reality as in name =
