In the Philippines and the starting

gin very shortly. During the week

to Senator Carter, concerning the ap-
plicntion for the discharge OF n

Gen. Corbin says that any soldier

procure the same upon personal APP

ton as has never before been held in

but a grand outpouring OF the
popular manifestation OF regard for
the soldiers. The limited stage ac-
commodations and the desirability
of having the entire company reach

make it advisable to transport the
soldiers from the nearest railroad
point, and then hold the reception in

Captain Frank S. Eastman of the
Fourteenth United States Infantry
was in Chicago last week on his re-
turn from Manila on sick leave. In
an interview he said, speaking OF the
Filipinos: People In this country
who talk about war on the part of
the Filipinos being for independence
do not know what they are talking
about; il is n war OF few %scheIning,
selfish leaders who have resorted To
desperate methods to secure a fol-
lowing. Not only have they lied and
misrepresented things in every pos.
sible manner but they also have re-
sorted to intimidation to keep their
forces together. Threats of death
have been held up Is the fate of any
who refuse longer to fight the Amerl-
cans. Even to counsel peace was to
invite possible death" Yet Aguin-
aldo has been compared with George
Washington.

A WAVE OF PATRIOTISM.

A few days since there assembled
in Chicago an audience to listen to
the Nominations of n small coterie
Of copperheads and doctrinaires who
style themselves "anti-expansion-
lists" Among the speakers was one
college president, Rogers, of the
Northwestern University at Evan
ston, and one professor, Laughlin, Of
the Chicago University. The audience
vas said to number three thousand
and during the diatribes of these
"holier than thou" college gentlemen
some Altgeldan anarchists Kissed
an allusion to President Mckinley
because he did not surrender To the
Filipinos and order Dewey to leave
Manila bay.
OF course the college president was
ashamed and mort fed at the char
acter of the response and felt like
apologizing for his malignant aud
itors.
The Helena Independent, however,
fairly gloated over this incident and
was greatly cheered at the nantes
tation Of disapproval of the admin
istration's policy in the Philippines
by the metropolis of the west. But
"a few swallows do not make n
summer" especially this year. Fol-
lowing this meetings werecalled both
for Evanston and Chicago by sup
porters OF the administration to be
held the following Saturday night
and Sunday. The meetings were
non-partisan and fully ten thousand
people turned out In Chicago, filling
two or three halls. The addresses
were of the most inspiring and pa
triotic character, every sentence be-
ing greeted with IA whirlwind of ap-
plause. The mention of President
Mckinley, Admiral Dewey, Funston
and our brave volunteers, brought
the people to their feet. The ad-
dresses were fervid and able and
every speaker exposed the pusilan-
unity Of those who are opposing the
administration in its efforts to restore
order in the Philippines.
At Evanston nearly every member
OF the college faculty and a great
many of the students turned out to
rebuke their misguided president.
Some Of the professors spoke elo-
quently, completely annihilating the
opposition.
Last Sunday the people OF Mime
apolis also gave eloquent testimony
of their loyalty and approval OF the
administration. 1t reminds one of
the days of the civil war when SINH
lar meetings were held to strengthen
the union cause and assure President
Lincoln that the masses were with
him heart and soul despite the his
sing OF the despicable copperheads
who were giving aid and comfort to
the enemy. Now, as then, there is
no question as to where the people
stand when a test IL made of their
patriotism.

The Helena Independent INDUCES
In nearly u column OF rot In forecast
ing the result in the states holding
elections this fall. In its recapitula-
ton the Independent says: "Eleven
states will hold elections this fall.
Seven Of them cast their electoral
votes for Mckinley in 1896. Two Of
them - Maryland and Kentucky -
have already r~epudiated Mckinley
ism. New York has practically done
30. This would reverse the result Of
1886 and leave the Republicans with
four of the eleven states-a loss OF
three out of their even In 1896.
Should Ohio 20 Democratic this fall

They Cure Stomach Troubles and Indf-
gestion Anyway, Whether You Have
Faith In Them Not.
Mere faith will not digest your food
for you, will not give you an appetite,
will not increase your flesh and
strengthen your nerves and heart, but
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will do
these things, because they are COM
posed of the elements of digestion, they
contain the juices, acids and peptones
necessary to the digestion and assim-
ilation of all wholesome food.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will di-
gest food if placed in jar or bottle
in water heated to SO degrees, and
they will do it much more effectively
when taken into the stomach after
meals whether you have faith that
they will or not.
They invigorate the stomach, make
pure blood and strong nerves, in the
only way that nature can do it, and
that is, from plenty of wholesome food
well digested- 1t is not what we eat,
but what we digest that does US good

TREcKINo BACK.

Col, w. ]. Bryan, who never
smelled powder, is trecking back
to the enemies country, as Uncle
Paul Kruger would put ii. We
do not think Bryan ought to be
held responsible for anything he
said in 1896, because he was ex-
cited then and could not be expect
ed to stick closely to truth. But
when he gets back into Ohio,
Pennsylvania, New York and
the other great manufacturing
States where the smoke of the
busy factories darken the heavens
by day, and the light of roaring
forges illuminate the night, he is
liable to go up against some of
those wild rhapsodies he uttered
from the tail end of his special car,
and it will be embarrassing. Now
suppose some thousands of work
ingmen should fling some of his
1896 campaign speeches back at
him-some of those rhetorical
gems in which he solmenly proph-
esied that there could be no pros
perity until the sacred white met
al was rehabilitated-it would be
awkward for Bryan. Then sup
pose they would dig up a few Of
his Congressional thoughts in
which he told his countrymen
that nothing but free trade would
do the business. Lots and lots of
people will go to see Bryan while
he is in the enemy's country,
They will want to know how he
looks since he became a member
of Aquinaldo's blessed trinity.

NOT DEAD, JUST srINks.

In a recent interview Lieuten-
ant Governor Hutchinson told a
funny story illustrative of the
present status of the Silver Re-
publican party. 1t is the worst
shot at that moribund institution
ever, to our knowledge, delivered,
and had it come from any other
source would rightfully haze been
regarded as disgustingly offensive.
But as MIR. Hutchinson is one of
the remaining few who hug the
delusion that there is yet such a
thing in existence as Silver Re-
publican party, we, possibly, ought
to give him the credit of knowing
what he is talking about. The
substance of the story is that a coll
lege youth undertook to convey
some extremely rank limburger
cheese to friend, by way of practi-
cal joke. 1t smelled so horribly
that the railroad officials mistook
it for a fetid corpse, and obliged
the youth to ship it in coffin.
The point is that the Silver Re-
publican party is not a corpse but
stinks so horribly that everybody
thinks it is. The strange part Of

CHRISTIANS.


Next Monday will be Christ
mas, and it will be the happiest
Christmas the people have en-
joyed for a good many years.
Except for that little trouble down
in the Philippines there would not
be a single thing to mar the ma
toms JOY. For weeks the for
eSts of Michigan and Wisconsin
have been invaded by the Christ
mas tree hunters; for weeks the
mails have been grooming under
the burdens of Christmas gifts
and even the ocean steamers
have been freighted with millions
Of dollars winging their way to
the old folks at home, sent from
the bounty of the boys and girls
who came to America. 1t is a
good thing to let the memory
run back a few years to the
Christmas days which came in
1893, 1894 and 1895. Those
were gloomy Christmases !.
Thousands of people then took
their dinners at the free soup
kitchens; thousands of others
went without any dinner at all i.
Then the privilege of sleeping
through the night before Christ
mas in the cellar of a city hall
was boon to many and many
others pleaded to occupy the city
Jail. Those were terrible days,
and should not too soon be for
gotten. They resulted from the
mistakes of men who, rather than
abandon cherished theories, de-
lighted in such object lessons.
There are, unfortunately, thous-
ands of other men who, even to
this day, are blind to the causes
which produced the misery and
want of those bygone Christmas
days. In the conceit of their
foolish theories, they pine for an
other opportunity to experiment
with the lives and fortunes of
their fellow citizens; they are
willing to again risk plunging the
nation back into the gloom and
sorrow from which it has happily
been lifted. Let us be patient
with them in their decisions; but
heed them not. Happy days are
all too rare in this world, let us
not hazard them on the prophecies
of those whose predictions have
never been fulfilled. We must
strive to forgive them this Christ
mas day; but forget them, never,
That would be an offense against
the nation, sin against humanity
and crime against 10 millions
of American children the joy of
whose lives is conferred in the
coming of Santa Claus.
