The American Aguinaldoites have re-
piled to the sentiment against hauling
down the flag, that we did in fact haul
down the flag in Mexico, retired from
that country in good order, and took no
dishonor because of such manipulation
Of halyards. Very true, very
true. But viii these home
insurrectionists please to furbish
up memory a little, and after they have
thought it all over and reverted to their
school histories, report if they do not
find that the flag was not hauled down
in Mexico until the United States had
gained by it's raising a vast empire Of
territory better, greater and more de-
that includes California, for instance a
magnificent stretch Of territory so
much better than all of Mexico-which
we could have retained had we so de-
sired--that it is free from poems, and
yellow fever is fairer, more salubrious,
exempt from plague and climatic
curses, and all around just suited to our
wants. No, indeed, we did not pull
down the flag in Mexico-we simply
moved it over to the best territory that
State had which we desired to possess.
Over that territory taken from Mexico
without so much as asking the consent
of the governed, the flag still floats. a
territory within the borders of which
we had to whip some of the non-con-
senting governed into submission, as
some of our old time friends, the native
Californians. will testify.

DEWEY AND THE ANTS. j"

! The Santa Rosa Republican" ex-
lanti-expansionists should have kept so
very quiet during the Dewey demon
strations. There is no reason for sur
prise in the premises. The parties re-
such a time. Had they risen in pro-
test against the laudations of the peo-
pie on the home coming of Dewey they
would have encountered a storm of re-
buke that would have buried them
| But the logic of their position ought
to give them courage to protest against
clarifying over the hero of Manila Bay.
! If their claim is sound then Dewey
was wrong and his acts those Of op-
lpression and tyranny; hence, they
should not have the commentator. of
the people. For Dewey did far more
than whip the Spanish naval force. He
thereafter so managed affairs as to en-
able us to assert our right on land to
control and administer affairs in the
Philippines. He aided the arms of the
United States repeatedly in fighting
the insurgents. He was one of the
commission which refused to listen to
/ the demand of Aguinaldo for recogni-
ton of his so-called government In
short, he so used the naval force at
his command as to make it very un-
pleasant for the cause of the insur-
gents.
On more than a dozen occasions he
turned his guns upon the rebels and
killed not a few of them, demolished
their towns and Notifications and COW
cred the advance of our army in it's
operations against Aguinaldo's forces.
If, then, the declarations Of Bryan, At
kinson, Mason and other leaders of the
American Tagalos are sound, If they
are true, it follows as a matter Of
course that Dewey's operations were
ruthless, merciless, destructive of hu-
man rights. subyersive of liberty and
defensible under no code. Therefore,
Dewey should not be applauded by the
the anti-expansionists are right, Dewey
should have resigned his position rather
than become the instrument and tool
of the Administration in doing such
great injustice to the Filipinos Assur-
edly, the antis were wise in remaining
quiet during the Dewey reception cere-
monies.

In another place we republish from

preston of Professor Heaton of the
University of California, made before
a Teachers, Institute in Santa Bar

sion to attack the Administration and
oppose the advance of our arms in the
Philippines. The Press does not deny
to Professor Heaton the right to enter
tain his opinions regarding the Philip
pine policy, but it does justly, and
with creditable indignation protest
against his going about the country as

tant arrest made in New York city yes

chase 5000 worth of green goods for
$500. Upon receipt Of the letter Mr..
Kaistensson came to Portland and gave
the letter to City Marshal sylvester who
in turn handed 1t to Deputy Marshal
Smith.
Mr.. Smith at once began a correspon.
dence with Anthony Comstock who In q
disguised handwriting replied to the
green goods gentleman. The name
OF Mr.. Kaistensson was signed to this re-
ply by MIR. Comstock and the letter bore
the Clltf Island post mark.
The letter stated that Mr.. Kaistensson
had moved to Portland was doing a little
building and that he would be willing
to invest $500 for 5000. he also said be
had a friend, Mr.. Burton Smith, whom
he thought he could interest to the extent
of few hundred dollars.
A reply to MIR. Comstook's letter quick.
ly followed, being sent to MIR. Kaistens-
son in care Of Burton Smith. These let.
ters were then sent to Mr.. Comstock, who
again replied.
This reply brought forth several letters
from the green goods professor In which
he urged MIR. kaistensson to send him
s25 between the leaves OF book.
MIR. Comstock, acting for Mr.. Kais-
tension. replied that he preferred meet.
Ing. As q result OF the various correspon-
dencs. Mr.. "Greengoods" was landed in
New York and arrested yesterday morn
ing by Mr.. Comstock as stated above.
The direct charge against him, Of course.
