WAR AGAIN.
Philippines are Fighting for their
Freedom.

History Of he Republic-Twenty men
Killed and One Hundred and Twenty
five Wounded on Sunday-Prer he

Both Engaged-Fighting still goiag
On.
The conflict is on. The first lives
sacrificed by Americans in the a.
tempt to enslave people who have
won their independence from their
mother country have paid the pen
atty for greed of territory. A battle
began on Sunday morning in the far
off Philippines and the first day
twenty lives were sacrificed and one
hundred and twenty wounded. And
for what?
In order to take away the liberties
of a people who will not yield them
to us after they have won them from
Spain. The terrible drama is being
played as the opponents of imperial
ism have 80 often warned the advo-
Gates of the policy that it would be
played.
The fighting was begun by the
Philippines and the Americans with
great bravery repulsed them. The
loss among the natives cannot be
told but from press reports it will be
quite heavy. The administration is
shocked and feels very badly over
what it should have expected and
what it will constantly be called on
to face until the Philippines are CIV
en- up by US and we retire from a
place where we have not the least
shadow of right.
The prophecies of those who have
been at Manila and have seen for
themselves the situation as it is are
being carried out with startling fl
deity to what they said would come.
This country is now embarked in
another war and this time it is not
to be waged in the interest and over
whom we have no right to jurisdic-
ton.
The fighting is still going on but
the results after the first day have
not been learned. The Navy took
part in the opening scrap with effect
but no one on board was killed. At
ter the first fighting the American
lines advanced. The situation is
most grave and everyone will watch
the progress of events with great
solicitude.

The County Court meets next
Monday, the 18th inst.
They promised at their last adj
journment to "take up the bridge
question at their next meeting"
No doubt they will 'take it up"
They will also turn it down" If
they have half chance.
The County Court does not want
to buy the bridge. If the people,
who do want to buy it, almost unan-
imously, do not manifest that pur-
pose in unmistakable terms there
will be no free bridge.
When the party who does not
want TO do thing is met half way
by Indifference on the part of those
who do want it, that is all the ex-
cuse needed for not doing it.
However strange it may seem that
so plain duty as the purchase of
the bridge may be, should need any
urging by the people, nevertheless,
that is the situation.
What is needed now is a public
meeting in the Circuit Court room
on the day and date of the meeting
of the County Court, the passage of
resolutions expressive of public SEN
timent, and the appointment of a
committee to go down to the Coun-
ty Court room, and demand in the
name of the people, that the Court
do its duty in this matter, and do it
without delay.
We serve notice on our people
now, that if they have not public
spirit enough TO assert themselves
in some way, the County Court will
leave them in the lurch.
Mere passive dependence on the
County Court has played out. The
people must demand that they eth
err do their duty or resign.
No communie, of people ought to
submit to such condition as this.
When the United States will come
into our state and spend millions to
make the river free as matter of
public policy, ought this county to
hesitate to make it possible to cross
the river free as matter of public
policy in which our own people are
directly concerned?
