IN THE nature of things and, Of
course, in accordance with the teach-
iugs OF history, no contest of the poor
against the rich could ever be perma-
neutly successful, unless sccompaniec
by violence. Therefore, the antitrust
law in Arkansas must be imperative,
as the courts of that State have decided
that that law must also apply to Labor
organizations aud unions, the object OF
which is to sustain and raise the price
of labor. As the chief opposition to
the trusts comes from the poor, they will
naturally withdraw it, if their own in
terests are to be injuriously affected.

A Filipino General Killed.

Manila, April Gen. Montenegro,
next to Aguinaldo the most influential
of the insurgent leaders, has been
killed. The news was brought to
Malolos today by paciicos, who
returned to the American lines, and
it is generally credited. Mon.
tengro was noted for his dash and
daring. His aggressiveness and powers
we're said to have been the principal
factor in the continuance OF the insur-
rection. He is believed to have fallen
in the battle at the outskirts Of Malolos,
for the defence of the city.

papers that England might exchange
Ter possessions in The West Indies for

such an exchange for England would

it asserts, have not the slightest Wish
TO change their sovereignty. The Globe
idduces rs an argument for England's
retention of the West Indies the ex-

Kingwood r. r., by which for term
of "a years it agrees to join with the

all freight originating upon or going
to the latter from the main line, with
certain limitations as to short hauls,
and providing for an arbitrary division

the new road will start off upon the
most favorable basis, and upon terms
that the Kingwood and Tunnelton
Road did not secure.

TO USE MARcoNY SYSTEM.
American Compa Will Connect Five
Hawaiian Islands.

Telegraphic communication by Sig.
Marconi's wireless system is to be es-
tablished between five of the Hawaiian
Islands by a company of Americans.
Frederick j. Cross, of the firm of Cation,
Neill X Co., engineers of Honolulu, has
closed contract for the American COM
pany i'll Hawaii. Although many engi-
neers regarded the connection of the live
islands by cable as impracticable, be-
cause of coral reefs, on which a cable is
soon covered with coral growth, breaks
are frequent and repairs exceedingly diff
tcult, the American company had about
decided to attempt it, rs the needs of
telegraphic communication had grown
most urgent. Then they heard OF Sig.
Marconifs achievements, aud Mr.. Cross
was sent to this country to view the
workings of his system. He found that
the Marconi system would cost much less
and be more practicable in many ways
than cable. Regular telegraph business
will be done by the company installing
the wireless system. The distance over
which communication will be established
will vary from eight to siXty-one miles.

SAYS WARMUST GO ON
REPORT OF THE PHILIPPINE
COMMISSION.
Mem bers Unanimous in Declaring tina (
the United States Should Remain In
the PhiIippines-Are Not Ready for
Self-Goverment.

The preliminary statement CT the Phil
ippine commission was handed to Presi-
dent Mckinley Thursday An unanim-
ity of opinion fayOring the retention of
the islands, the intimatiOn being made
that it will be long time before the ma
tives can govern themselves, and that
government of the islands by the United
States is the archipelagO's only salvation,
are the main features of the document.
No advice, however is given as to the
proper course TO pursue in the premises,
and the statements made tend to lay all
the blame on Aguinaldo for existing hos
tilities
The historical events leading up to the
rebellion of Aguinaldo against American
authority are succinctly recorded, includ-
ing statement of the grievances that led
to the uprising of the natives against
Spain in 1896 and the responsibility for
the existing condition of hostility between
the insurgents and the American forces
is clearly placed on the shoulders of the
rebel leader, whose aim is shown to be
not the advancement of his fellow coun-
trymen, but solely the qualification Of his
personal ambitions. In the language OF
the commissioners, instead Of being pat
riot, a great champion of freedom and a
second George Washington. Aguinaldo is
pictured as a miserable, shifting, tricky,
treacherous, murderous upstart, whom
Gen. Otis and other Americans would be
unwilling to even associate with.
One conclusion the commissioners reach
relates to the capability Of the Filipinos
for self-government. According to their
idea the people are not ready for it. The
report of the commission makes it plain
that at no time could the abandonment
Of the position taken when the American
dag was raised over Manila have been
seriously considered as compatible with
the honor of the United States or its
duty to the vast population Of the arch
ipelago placed in its hands by the treaty
Of Paris. The gist Of the report specifies
the need for American occupancy and
urges the necessity for maintaining the
army. j
Among the more prominent suggestions
embodied in the statement are references
regarding the good conduct Of the Ameri-
cans now there and the bright future for
the islands under the domination of
Spain's successor. Concluding it says:
Our control means to the inhabitants Of
the Philippines internal peace and order,
a guarantee against foreign aggression
and against the dismemberment Of their
country, commercial and industrial pros
perity and as large share Of the affairs
Of government as they shall prove fit to
take. When peace and prosperity shall
have been established throughout the ar
chipelagO, when education shall have be-
come general then, in the language Of
leading Filipino, his people will under
our guidance, become more American
than the Americans themselves
The report is signed by ]. G.. Schur-
man, George Dewey, Charles DENLY and
Dean C. Worcester.
