GENERAL MERRIAM's REPORT.
Tells Of His Connection With the
Troubles at Wardner.

WASHINGTON, Oct 1S.-The War
Department made public the annual re-
port of Brigadier General H. c. Mer-
riam, commanding the department OF
Colorado. Only the most casual refer
ence is made to General Merriams op-
erations in Idaho during the miners
troubles. He states that the feature
of the years work has already been
covered in a separate report transmit
ted to the War Department. General
Merriam says that his department has
been almost denuded of troops owing
to the demands of the foreign service.
The discipline of this small force, he
says, has been good, the school work
satisfactory, and the court-martials
fewer than in the preceding year. He
SAYS, however, that considering the
presence of $4,000 Indians in the de-
partment, the military strength has
been reduced very close to the limit OF
safety.
The report of General Merriam upon
the Idaho riots was made public this
afternoon General Merriam disclaims
all responsibility for the order refus-
ing employment to union men in the
mines He says that this regulation
was drawn by the State authorities,
and his only connection with it was 20
liberalize certain of it's provisions, after
which he placed his name at the bot
tom with the words, Examined and
approved" 1t says it was not his in
tention that his troops should have any
part in debating the condition of labor
in Idaho, and that, they never did so.
The other point which he makes Is
that the prisoners, of whom at one
time there were more than 400, were
not properly cared for until he had
called the attention of the State au-
thorities to the matter, after which
their condition was materially i'm

The Duke of Devonshire kept we'll
within bounds when he said that ''at
no period within our recollection have
our relations with the United States
been more friendly than they are at
the present moment He could
have gone farther and said that at no
period within this century have the
relations between the two countries
been anywhere near so friendly as
they are now. Some controversy
has sprung up every few years since
the war of independence and the war
of 1912 to create lll-feeling between
the two nations. The northeastern
and northwestern boundary disputes
in the days between the war of 1912
and the war of secession created
several disagreements, extending
over long series of years. Then
came the Trent affair in. 1861, the
Alabama claims controversy half a
dozen years afterward, and the
various fishery disputes in more re-
cent years, with the Venezuelan affair
in 1895. At no previous time since
1868, when the war ended in which
England and her American colonies
expelled the French from North
America, was there so much real
cordiality between the two branches
of the Anglo Saxon race as there is
st this moment.

AMERICAN ASSISTANTS.

The confident young revolution
ist who claims the sovereignty of the
Philippines as his personal property,
and who assumes to be bigger man
than Uncle Sam and Magellan COM
bined, has been much disturbed IN
his plans since his daily dispatches
from Washington were cut off. The
comfort and aid desired from that
source are found now to have been
the larger half of his inspiration. To
sit idly in his ''capitaP' near Manila
and not to hear of Senator Hoars'
elaborate Filipino orations, Of Ma
sons impassioned flights of fancy
about the consent of the governed,
and of Hale's resolve to vote against
the treaty, though the Maine legisla-
ture votes unanimously the other
way, is painful state of affairs for
Aguinaldo. The day hangs heavy
when no synopsis of sympathetic elo-
quence flashes from the Potomac 10
the Filipino couriers on the Pasig.
Gen. OTIS holds the cable and has
paralyzed the tender cords of affilia-
ton and mutual encouragement that
have hitherto vibrated between
Aguin aldo and his hackers in the
American senate.
In addition to this benumbing blow
Aguinaldo has discovered that he
can no longer import rifles and am
munition from Hong Kong. What
is the use of grabbing historic SOW
ereignty if his trouserless army can
not get guns and cartridges to assist
in negotiating national debt and
getting appropriations Aguinaldo's
army is understood to number 49,
600, chiefly boys who have no
property of their own to lose. They
receive no pay, but EXPECT plenty of
booty when the United States is
scared away and they proceed to
help themselves to whatever they
want in Manila as the only true
original representatives of the con-
sent of the governed. They know
this is so, because they used to have
daily assurance of it from Washing
ton before the cable was censored,
thus severing the genial current that
added each day to Aguinaldo's de-
mands and the size of his hat. In
the sacred name of liberty Hoar, Ma
son and Hale should demand the in
stant opening of the cable, SO that
their burning words may reverberate
in Aguinaldo's camps, nerving his
street boys, uniformed IN straw hat
to open fire upon the American flag.
