day. and cries aloud that to say that
the expenditure Of money in waging
war now going on is for the promotion
of the interests Of humanity, is hypo-
critical cant" Here again-agonized
by horror and hay seed-it distorts the
situation, and misrepresents the claims
of those with whom It does not agree.
The simple truth is that this govern
ment got the Philippines on Its hands
as the results Of prosecuting Just and
righteous war. The argument does not
end here, but begins here. The sltua-
tion being what 1t really Is; what is to
be done about It? Is the Wheeling
Register in favor of abandoning the
Philippines? If 1t is, let 1t say so, and
clutch with desperate hands at the
throat OF It's own country on a false
and foolish cry, Let 1t stick the knife
in straight In front, and not assall in

this, the state Journal will endeavor to
take care of 1t on its chosen ground

HARRISBURG, Pa, July 11.-Albert
Smith, mIddle-aged colored man, was
hanged in the yard of the Daphin
county jail this morning, for wife muir
der.
Smith poisoned his wife about q year
ago so that he might be free to live
with Annie Winston, who killed her
husband by the same means. They
lived together for while and then he
began to pay attention to other women.
This made Annie jealous, and she
quietly notified the police OF Smiths
crime. He was arrested and convicted
of first degree murder and sentenced TO
be hanged. She was also arrested, tried
and convicted Of second degree muir
der, and sentenced to twenty years In
the penitentiary.
