yesterday in a fight near Grape Creek.
Sutherland had taken Albright's sweet
heart to a dance. and as they were re-

quarreling over the girl for some time,
and when she informed Albright one
evening last week that she would not
go with him any longer ne swore venge-
ance on Sutherland.

Manila, April q, 9:45 p. m.-General
HacArthur's division crossed the Rio
Grande today and advanced on ApaIit
completely routing the flower of the
rebel army. Most of the rebels fed to
Apalit station, where two trains were
waiting them. They left hurriedly. pre-
sumably for San Fernando. The towns
of San Vincente ard ApaIit were sim
ultaneously burned and evacuated by
the natives. Twenty PRISONS We're
captured. including a Spaniard. The
American troops also captured a brass
cannon and a qua nifty Of arms and am
munition. and this evening they capt
ured Maxim gun on the railroad. The
fighting lasted from noon until p. m.
The American loss is one man of the
Montana regiment killed and three Off
GERS and six men wounded.
Enemy Was Strongly Intrenched.
The enemy was very strongly in
trenohed on the river bank near both
Wheaton sent Colonel Funston across
with two companies of the Twentieth
Kansas regiment, a couple of privates
swimming the swift stream with a rope
under fire for the purpose of guiding
a raft. The men crossed in squads of
twenty and attacked the left flank of
the rebels, who scuttled like rabbits
into the covered ways and trenches.
The rest of the regiment was compelled
m he hri1 in Sin OF al
the stringers. All the woodwork and
much of the ironwork had been re-
moved. The First Montana regiment
followed the Kansans across the bridge.
The First Nebraska regiment, acting as
Il reserve, attacked the rebels in three
lines of trenches, driving them out, kill
ing sixteen and wounding many.
Did Not Venture Within a Mile.
In the meantime large body of Fill
ipinos, estimated al no fewer than 3,0G0
led by General Antonio Luna on n black
charger. that was evidently coming to
reinforce the rebels who were engaged
with the Nebraskans, appeared in the
open field about two miles to the left.
Emerging from the jungle the enemy
formed open skirmish line nearly
two miles in length, with very thick re-
serves behind. Then they advanced at
double quick until they were about 1000
yards from the American line, when
General Wheaton ordered his troops to
fire. The rebels, who were evidently
unaware that the Americans had
crossed the river, broke and ran in the
direction of Macabele. The other Fill
ipinos fled toward Apalit station. The
heat in the early part of the afternoon
was terrific. but a drenching thunder
storm which came later greatly re-
freshed the Americans.

wrought another remarkable change
in Texas. Thrifty and hard working,
they have proven excellent agricultur-
lists. while their generally good prim-
airy education, together with certain
trait of refinement, have made them by
far the most desirable class OF immi-
granite.
They have always been WELDON ed, and
thus in a period of less than two de-
cades they have transformed the great
plains for hundred miles from the
coast inland from stock pastures into
agricultural fields. They are steadily
encroaching on the stock industry of
the state, and the almost pathetic tone
in which the "aggression OF the man
with the hoe. is discussed at the an
nual stockmen's conventions is an I'M
willing tribute to the history-m aking
of the German immigrants in Texas to
day.
This positive commercial evolution
does not appear at once to be q great
epoch in the history of a state, because
it is gradual and peaceful, yet it shapes
it's destiny in that it gives new condi-
tions and new ambitions. Peaceful as
it ia, it is the most important epoch in
the history of Texas since her emery
ence out OF the Latin into the Anglo
Saxon civilization, and to the Germans
largely belong the credit.-Globe Dem

OUTSIDE of the sensational features
of the legal war that has been going on
in the center of the state in the libel
proceedings between Rev. Mr.. Gran
fills and Rev. Mr.. Hayden, the trial
has been of interest to newspapers be-
cause they are SO often threatened with
similar proceedings. Judge Horce who
tried the last case has made an import
ant ruling in that he has decided that
testimony to establish the truth OF al
legged libelous publications would be
admitted in evidence. Heretofore the
courts of Texas have held otherwise,
and the newspapers will regard this as
a great victory for the rights of the
Dress.

THE democratic party of Texas is
not unanimous against expansion.
Many of them cannot forget the old
traditions of the party, and how their
statesmen in times past have fought
for the admission of new territories
and islands. The efforts of the leaders
to find. Tissues of "anything to beat Nc
Kinley," are discouraged by perhaps q
majority of the voters. This senti-
ment is re-echoed by the press. AS an
example the Baird Star says, "The
Star is not q hemispherical democrat,
but the whole thing. It believes in
expansion the..wide, wide world DER,
wherever deemed best for our country.
If this is Imperialism, make the most
of it,"
The Johnson county Review also
says: "Some of the Reviews misguid-
ed friends who are trying to read it
out of the democratic party because it
has the temerity to advocate the good,
old-time democratic doctrine of expan-

THE last government financial state
ment shows there is an avails BILE cash
balance in the treasury of S273. 497, 1877,
and gold reserve of $245, 535 500. How
is that for a comparison between demo-
cratic and republican times. Cleve-
land issued bonds to maintain a gold
surplus: McKinley's prosperity is SUI
fcient to keep q large surplus and to
pay of the democratic bonds. No
wonder the democratic party stands OPP

sTHIS constant grumbling about tn
fare received by our soldiers and sail
ors is very tiresome, said an Ell Pasoar
the other day; "during the war, the
crew 1 WAS with lived twenty-one days
with nothing else than pork and beans.
and there was not sick man among
u.s." The reason the papers have SO
enlarged on the grumbling of the SOL
diery and encouraged it, is for politi-
cal effect, pure and simple, to make
the Philippines an object of disgust to
the American people. The most of the
soldiers do not feel so. Elmer School
ey, private in a Minnesota regiment,
representing the manly element, and
writing to a friend from Meycauayan,
Luzon, dated June %, says: "Our
Governor Lind, and q few more OF his
kind, aided by home associations, have
been making fools of themselves by
demanding our return. They have in
jured the good record of the regiment
and advertised US as 'week-kneed'
all over the Estates. This lis not
relished by US, and from the sentiment
heard on all sides the governor and his
crowd will hear from us at the next
election. When we come home we
want to come like soldiers, and not
like whimpering, homesick babies.
"Our governm emit may have made
some mistakes here, but Edward At
kinson ct al. would show better patriot
ism by helping to establish peace in
stead of criticising the administration
and trying to incite the troops to mu-
tiny. Aguinaldo is resourceful ad-l
venturer, and learns American
methods of warfare very rapidly. He
Is treacherous, INSCRIPTIONS, venal,

lies exist. They are at war among |
