MiSiDfOrmatiOn as to
Philippines.
Charges by Former Secretary
to Manila Chamber.
to Commerce.

Ernest E. Wheelock of Algona,
former private secretary to Gen.
Merritt, and former Secretary of the
Manila Chamber of Commerce, is
home from the Philippines, waere he
has been since the landing Of the
first troops. He declares the Amer
lean people have been grossly misln'
formed on affairs in the Philippines.
Our rule in those islands has been a
maladministration. he asserts, and is
so recognized by all European resi-
dents of Manila.
"The misapprehensior of She peo'
pie Of the United States regarding
the Philippine Islands," said Mr..
Wheelock, sis only equailed by the
ignorance of the Filipino of what
constitutes good Amerlcanism. Af-
te- two year of attempted rule the
tsoo peoples still misunderstood each
other, and the little brown men that
received the armies of the United
States with childish glee in 1898
now despise with an awful hatred
the Americans and everything per-
tanning to them.

Normal Schools in
Cuba.
Address Of Secretary
Of Financel

Sefior VarOna, Secretary OF Fin
ance, addressing the theachers at the
Summer Normal School Of Havana
recently, said that with them rested
the most important part of the life
of the country. They had the moul-
ding ofits future citizens. The pa
rents themselves, he declared, should
do more than they had done in the
past, for they seemed to think that
sending children, to school was all
that was needed, whereas it would
be infinitely better if the children,
in their earlier years, were given
home instruction, thereby not only
easing the labor of the teachers, but
making solid groundwork upon
which to build. Senor Varona ur-
ged the teachers to do their utmost
to prepare the growing generation
for the highest duties Of citizenship.
Abiding to the attendance of a
large number of Cuban teachers at
Harvard University, the speaker
said they were visiting one of the
first centres of culture and learning
in the world and it would unques-
ticnably prove agreat advantage to
them, and that the Cuban people
were grateful. He considered the
visit fraught with great significance
for the future.
Normal schools will also be open.

msnt Of something like e100, 600 OF
the money collected by the United
States in Cuba. There were also
indications that he had been able to
steal even larger sum through the
non-destruction Of stamps which
ought to have been destroyed. His
capture was heralded abroad with a
flourish of trumpets as an evidence
of the purpose Of the Administration
to let no guilty man escape. When
his extradition seemed likely to be
thwarted through lack Of proper law,
the Administration rushed to Con-
g7ess for the necessary authority.
This was granted without delay, and
an expectant public looked to the
speedy transfer of Nicely from the
United States to the scene Of his
disgraceful exploits.
Nearly month has passed since
that lac was enacted and the last
obstacle to Neely's deserved punish
ment removed. During this inter.
val we have waited for sOne indica-
ton that the Government was really
in earnest in its desire to bring
Nicely to trial. we confess that the
delay which has e1sued is calculated
to arouse suspicion. Time and time
again have the preliminary pro-
seedlings been postponed, and Nicely
is still in this country, with his trial
apparently as far distant as when he
was arrested.
Who is responsible for the delay3
Is anybody being shisldedf What
has caused the Administration to
halt so long in carrying out the pro-
mise of swift justice which it an
nounced SO long ago"

Eastern gentlemen that are encoura
ging nina to take an extra yard or so
for good measure are playing a per-
fectly safe and legitimate game.
They have nothing to lose and eve
rything to gain. If Mr.. Bryan wins,
they win. If Mr.. Bryan loses, they
regain the party organization. There.
fore, the mere rope the merrier."
- The Charleston "News and
Courier" which opposed Bryan four
years ago, advocates his election
now. "Ths only weak spot in the
platform 10 the declaration in favor
o. the free and unlimited coinage Of
silver" it says, "but free silver is

"It is now almost two years since
Manila was first occupied by the
Americans, and the city is still un-
der martial law. To the people OF
America this means nothing, for
the know not what martial law is. It
means absolute loss Of personal
