American Flag Over Malolos.

The American flag was raised over
Malolos. the rebel headquarters In the
Philippines, at 10 o'clock Friday morn /
mo. The Americans met with little
assistance and their loss was very
small. The rebels had evidently given
nm ali hope of holding their capltal
for elaborate preparation had been
made for evacuating the city. lhaC
the rebel army succeeded III making
successful retreat is disappointment
for it was hoped that an end to the re-
bellion might be found at thls place.
Whether there is enough left OF Agul-
naldo's army to offer resistance OF any
consequence is hard TO ascertain
Judging from reports OF deserters con
tinually focking into Malo.os seeking
American protection his army Is lasC

of only a small force which Will prop

inc the Sioux and the Apache have

naldo will urge if they take to the
mountains. The Filipino is not so
hraVn warrior as was the American
Indian and the regulars will not make
hard lob of hunting them down.
Organized opposition to American
authority virtually ceased with the tall
of Malolos and AguinaldO's power is a
thing of the past. He has deceived
his followers and treated them AFRO
gantly; he has only succeeded in de-
stroving villages and devastating the
country over which he has travelled
and the natives now realize that to
follow him is ruinous to them. The
natives have been taught to believe
That death awaited them il they fell in
to the hands of the Americans. That
they are kindly treated instead is as
great surprise to them as 1t was TO
the Spanish soldiers at Santiago. The
news of this kind treatment will
spread rapidly through the island and
will be a great help in restoring peace.
Too much cannot be said OF the pa
fence, endurance and bravery OF the
American soldiers in their march from
Manila to Malolos. They hesitated at
nothing and won sweeping victories
against the greatest odds. -,
The commissioners sent to the
Philippines by President Mckinley

In Honor of Dewey.

An article in a recent issue of the
Roston Transcript says that Vermont
ers. no matter where they live, are al
WAYS loyal to their native state. Al
fer leaving Vermont to live elsewhere,
fhev take the same pride as ever IN
everything pertaining to the Green
Mountain state. A late indication OF
this is a movement on the part OF for.
mer Vermonters to erect monument
at the entrance to the State House at
Montpelier in honor of Admiral Geo.
Dewey. The committee in charge
consists of the following well known
men selected from different states:
Gon. Everett G. Benton, Waverly,
Mass; James p. Phelps of the Ma
tional Life Insurance Company; Hon.
Levi P. Morton, eX-Vice President of
the United States; Hon John M.
Thurston, United States senator from
Nebraska; Wallace F. Robinson, Bos
ton, president of the Chamber of Com
merce, and Hon. Joseph w. Babcock,
all Vermonters Hy birth, their places
of nativity being as follows: Guild
hall. Chittenden, Shoreham, Mont
pelier Reading and Swanton. No
tices of the formation of the committee
have lust been sent out but contribu-
tons have already been received and
the monument will probably be Sc
cured at an early date. Following Is

RECALLING RAILROAD PASSES.

At It's last session the Texas state
legislature enacted a very stringent
low forbidding the issue by the rail-
roads operating in that state Of free
transportation to public officers and to
shippers OF merchandise. In pursuance
of that enactment the various railroad
companies are recalling all the passes
issued to public officials. One com
pany has actually demanded the return
Of the pass Issued to q state railway
commissioners. although the railroads
are required by law TO furnish free
transportation TO such commissioners,
The enforcement Of such a law Will
tend to place the railroads and the
state officials on q basis Of strict
business upon both sides. Formerly
there was a system OF Interchange Of
faYors between the parties, and In all
probability the railroads received in
the way OF direct friendly legislation,
or in the failure TO enact Injurious
measures, benefits worth vastly more
than the money value OF the transpor-
tation given out 70 the officials But
when both parties come down TO
basis OF thorough business, neither Civ
ing 10 nor accepting from the other
fayors Of any sort, It will be better for

BlDE YOUR TIME.

When fortune treats you siightingly
And everything goes wrong,
Remember that you still are free
TO labor and be strong.
To him who bravely does his part
Misfortune Is no crime,
Just hold your grip and keep y heart,
And learn to bide your time.
The surest road 70 greatness lies
Through hard and patient work,
The glorious name chat never dies
Comes not unto the shirk.
Fame sits upon the emnence,
pinnacle sublime
He who would win must seek her
thence,
Strive on, and bide his time.
The man of hope and energy,
Who keeps one goal in sight,
Who goes his way with coustancy,
WIN sometimes win the fight
The man whose life glory lends
no every age and cline
Is he whose purpose never bends,
Who works, and bides his time.
Go onward. Der the futures hills
The dawn falls cool and sweet
Go onward He can win who wills
And bows not to defeat.
Go onward, though your path may lie
Through calumny and slime,
The day win brighten bye and bye,
Go on and bide your time
And when the fight at last is DER,
The toll at last Is done;
When standing on llfes farthest shor,
Beneath her setting sun,
BEYOND the futures unbarred gate
The bells of heaven chime,
And justice, love and glory walt
For aim who bides his time.
