LEFT THE COAxissARy.

A story comes from Manila con-
cerning one Of our Colorado boys
that shows the metal they are made
OF: One day Jim Sheridan WAS
left in charge OF the comm issary
department while his regiment was
out reconnoitering, when suddenly
the regiment was attacked by a
large number Of insurgents and n
battle opened. Jim heard the clash
OF arms and the roar OF battle and,
turning the key on the commis-
sary, took his rifle and hastened TO
the front. He soon joined his
regiment and WAS IN the thickest
OF the fight until the enemy beat a
hasty retreat and then returned to
his commisssty where q few
friendly natives were inspecting
his coffee, sugar. etc.
Some Of the officers were dis.
posed 70 give tho young "d,sci.
pline" and demanded to know Why
he left his post. To which Jim
replied that he had no superior
officer in tho commissary aud
deemed II his duty to 20 10 tho
front when there WAS any shooting
to do. General Hal. laughed at
Jim's plea and said II wss all right
but that he had better not do 10
next time.

ANTI.TRUSTS.

There will be good deal of talk
from now until after the election
next year about trusts. Antitrust
will be a popular catch phrase and
both old parties will ceal in glitter
ing generalities, with no feasible
remedy. Gov. Sayers, OF Texas,
proposes to ''be in the SWIM" and
he has already taken it upon him
self to call an antitrust convention
to be held at St Louis. This con-
ventlon will be made up of gov
ernors Of the states and attorney
generals.
Gov. Rogers of Washington de-
cllnes t" attend and in giving his
reasons, among other things, says:
Il am ut loss to see, too, how
the natural and Fundamental right
OF either natural or corporate per-
sons to buy and sell can be inter.
fered with by legal enactment un.
der our constitution. For this res-
son l can See no remedy for the
trust evil save public ownership.
This new question of the trusts ia
really the very old one Of capital
versus labor, or. stated ,litf.r.ntlv
the attempt of The almighty dollar
to acquire entire supremacy in the
affairs OF men. There is in all this
an irrepressible conflict which will
not down at the bidding of any
state legislature.

ures taken at Del Norte, the Far
mers Union ditch should have had
water from the 10th day Of June.
The Union ditch has not only been
robbed of the water it was right.
fully entitled to but the 65 feet
borrowed WAS diverted to other
channels. 1t is now too late to
save the crops under this ditch AZ
the water in the river has bepun
to recede. But If those under the
Union ditch had been allowed the
water they were entitled to have
together with that borrowed in the
early part of the season the old
lands would have been we'll subbed
and a fair crop grown. 1t has re-
qulred a great amount of patience
and forbearance on the part Of
these men to stand idly by and see
their crops go to waste by incom-
petent or dishonest management
by the officers appointed by Gov.
Thomas to properly distribute the
water for the several bitches in the
valley.

FIGHTING THE FILlp1Nos,

Our brave boys went forth il
the flush of their manly youth and
the pride of their sovereign
strength to fight for cause they
felt was just. They covered the
cause with a fsdeless fame and
gave an imperishable glory to
American arms. When their juty
was nobly done. they turned with
tender thoughts to the hearts at
home-that home which some
should never see. Then they were
sent like slsves-these valiant VOL
unteers-to a war for which they
l'atl no wish, sent rs unwilling
warriors to libel the name of lib
erty, sent under protest to play
the part of savages-sent out, by
cruel command, to butcher aud to
burn!
Just before he died from the
effects of wound, Sergeant Vick-
ers, Of the Nebraska volunteers,
wrote a letter from, the Philippines
to his family. IN which he said: {:
II am not afraid. and am always
ready to do my duty, but l would
like some one to tell me- what we
are fighting for?"
1t is not difficult to determine
the sentiment of our solliers on
the question of expansion, for their
expressions have been most en-
phstic. The following announce
ment in q press dispatch from
Washington is moro effective than
sll the arguments of the imperial
lists: "The refusal of the volun.
tsers at Manila to re.enlist was a
sore disappointment. The men
were offered $500 each. but they
have had enough of the climate
aud the inglorious work which is
ahead, 10 they prefer to come
home"
Still ''Bull" Shafter, who suffers
severely from fatty degeneration
Of the brain, has this to say Of the
situation:
The Filipino, like the Cuban, is
deeply suspicious of everything.
The result will be that the hones,y
OF our purpose must be hammered
into the natives by the use of pow
der and bullets. l have even said
that it may be necessary to kill
half the Filipinos in order that
tho remsining half Of the popuIa-
ton OF the islands may be ad-
vanoed to . higher plane of life
than their present semi-barbarous
state affords"
Slowly, my fine fellow! Perhaps
tho people may have something
more to say about this thing than
has tub Of tsllow who shirked a
soldier's duty at Santiago and fell
sick - soon a. he SAW there WAS
gong to be q fight. But it 10
surprising that the Filipino should
be suspicious" Of our "benevo-
lent" bayonets. 1t is really re-
msrksble that he should question
our humane purpose whilst va kill
