Mr.. WHITMoRE Ia to be congratulate
ed for the stand he took in the council
the other night against the erection OF
cheap and unsightly buildings in the
heart of the city. Among the two or
three features of this city that have
been most severely criticised is the
lack of uniformity or oversight in
these matters. Several instances can
be pointed to where small adobe or
brick buildings that are positive de-
Placements have been erected in close
proximity to handsome modern cot
tages, thus lowering materially the
value of all property in the vicinity.
Another matter that should be acted
upon at once ia the establishment OF q
building line set back far enough from
the sidewalk to allow space for little
parking along all the residence streets,
beyond which no portion OF any build
ing should be allowed to project with
out special permission from the city
authorities and the consent of adjoin-
ing property holders. Ell Paso needs a
competent building inspector.

Atuo time was anything said about
giving them their independence. You
will notice that in his manifesto Agu1-
naldo is careful not to say directly
that there were promises made; that
talk always comes from some OF his 1ol-
lowers who have something to gain oy
his success"
Continuing Mr.. Wildman spoke gen.
erallv of conditions il the Philippines
and paid high tribute to Admiral
Dewey. "The Philippines, 'he said,
"are well worth the struggle. Inc
country out there is magnificent ana
the climate Is good. There are sew en-
months of good weather and then
comes the rainy season when one can
do nothing. But then in every coun-
try there is the bad time OF the
year. The sooner we get down to gov
erninp the islands the better. They
are worth much from commercial
standpoint. The whole country is rich
and productive. AS to the question OF
self-government, l am led to believe
that none of the native people are capa-
BILE of that in the highest sense OF the
word. The only way that the natives
could govern themselves is under
American supervision. 1 believe that
the flag in the Philippines should never
be lowered. We have got to conquer
or annihiiate them"
This does not sound much as II Mr..
Wildman had been in league with
Aguinaldo for the purpose OF securing
Independence for the Filipinos regard
less of the rights and duties OF the
American nation. No doubt in full
time Admiral Dewey will tell the
whole story of his relations with the
Filipino chief. Then it anybody
chooses to believe Aguinaldo in pre-
ference to Admiral Dewey, he Is well
come, but he Is fool.

In Kansas City, under a special ar
rangement, documentary revenue
stamps will hereafter be sold at the
stamp window of the post Office. A
similar arrangement in this city would
be very convenient except for the fact
that it is very difficult to secure even
postage stamps at the post Office ex-
cept during certain hours. The use OF
documentary stamps is constantly in
creasing, and yet the only places in the
city where they can be conveniently
obtained are the banks, and they are
under no obligation to serve the public
in this way. They keep a stock OF
stamps on hand only to accommodate
their customers. 1.-THE stamp tax is to
be retained Indefinitely the procuring
of the stamps should be made Is easy

Chairman Jones And His Views.

Kansas City Journal.
The Hon. James K. Jones, United
States senator from Arkansas and
chairman of the democratic national
committee, returned from Europe the
other day and Immediately informed
an expectsnt country that Bryan
would be.the candidate next year and
free silver the issue. Inasmuch as Mr.
Jones has been in Europe for several
months, it would naturally be supposed
that the first few days OF his time after
landing would be occupied in seek
ing information, rot in Importing 1t.
The people who remained at bone
might fairly be presumed to known
more about the country's condition,
had been travelling in foreign lands Al
summer.
But Mr.. Jones, Of Arkansas, 1s an
exception and cannot be measured by
the rules that apply to ordinary men.
II he had been twelve months In the
Arctic regions, searching for the
north pole, or down in coal mine
hundreds of feet under ground, shut oil
from all communication with the
world and its affairs. he would have
made the same announcement In the
same confident way q few hours after
getting within talking distance OF q
newspaper.
Mr.. Jones fully made up his mind
before going abroad who the candidate
and what the Issue would be, and an
nounced his conclusion at the time. In
fact, he announced it many times. 1
was remarkable week in which Mr..
Jones did not tell the country just
what was going to happen next year.
The habit became so strong that even
after his arrival in Europe he wrote
and cabled back the came pregnant
statement, over and over. When an
idea gets into the Jones head 1t takes
possession of all the apartments and
furniture, and no other idea can enter
until this one vacates. If 1t gets tan
gled up among the cOgs and piston rods
and pulleys. many months may elapse
before any new tenants can gain ad-
mittance, however hard they may
knock for It.
However, Mr.. Jones is q good demo-
crat and fit man to be chairman OF
his party. The democratic party
doesn't get new ideas much faster than
Jones does, and when it gets them it Is
usually worse off than before. Jones
denies tn at the country is prosperous,
because he decided three years ago
tb at prosperity could not come under
the gold standard, and II the nat1onsl
convention of his party were held to-
morrow it would in all probability
make the same nonsensical declara-
ton. AS q citizen and as statesman
Jones is rank absurdity, but as chair
man of the Bryan democracy he is all
right and should hold his job indefini-
tely.

WHOM SHALL WE BELIEVE?

AGUINALDo is sharp enough to see
to whom he must turn for sympathy
and aid in this country. When certain
American prisoners we're released by
him In theatrical attempt to attract
the attention of other nations, he Is
sued a proclamation in which he ex-
presses his faith in God and the DEM
ocratic party. He also quotes Mr.. At
kinson and gives US the surprising in
formation that some Americans have
Joined the forces of the rebellion be-
cause they do not approve of the pro-
secution of the war by the United
States. SIN America" says ne,
"there is a great party that insists on
the government recognizing Filipino
independence; that party will compel
the United States to fulfil the promises
made to US in all isolemnity and good
faith though not put into writing.
Therefore we must show
our gratitude and hold our po-
sition more resolutely than
ever. We should pray to God thst the
great democratic sparty may win the
next presidential election and imperi-
alism fall in it's mad attempt to subject
US by force of arms. There are some
Americans in the Philippines who
have Joined us because they do not ap-
prove of a war of what Mr.. Atkinson
calls criminal aggression When
offered a chance to return to their
own camp, they declined"
n a
Filipinos have not broken "the al
lance made with the Americans
through Admiral Dewey and the Unit
ed States consuls at Hong Kong and
Singapore" The fact is there never
was any such alliance, and If there had
been any hope of such an agreement,
the Filipinos themselves took queer
method OF sealing the compact when
they wantonly and attack
ed our troops before Manila.
By a curious coincidence, Edwin
Wildman, ex-vice consul of the United
States at Hong Kong, arrived in New
York on the very same day that the
dispatches came summarizing this alb
surd proclamation of Aguinaldo. Mr..
Wildman was at Hong Kong before
and during the Spanish war. 1t is
with him that Aguinaldo claims to
have had his understanding that the
Filipinos should have absolute in
dependence as soon as the Spaniards
should evacuate. In an interview Mr..
Wildman finally disposes of Aguins1-
dos felsehoods. 81 want to say now
said he, "that at no time WAS Agui-
naldo or any of the Filipinos promised
independence. Admiral Dewey made
them no promises. We
brought Aguinaldo over 10

ticed law in Racine a number Of years,
