THE AMERICANS HARD PUSHED AT
IL1oLo.-Says a Manila dispatch O.
May 3: A dispatch received here to-
day from Iliolo reports that desper'
ate fight took place at Leambano 10
the center of the island of Panay. Ii
appears that accommodating party Of
the Twenty-Sixth infantry was sur
rounded and that four of the Ameri'
cans were killed and that 16 others, Sc
verely wounded, were left on the field
The remainder of the soldiers had q
narrow escape. The dispatch adds
that reinforcements were sent from
Iliolo as soon as news of the affair was
received, whereupon the Filipinos re-
treated to their mountain stronghold.

TERRIBLE MINE DISASTER In UTAH

TERRIBLE MINE DISASTER In UTAH
A most fearful disaster occurred il
the Sco6eld, Utah, coal mines last
Tuesday. 1t was the result of an ex
plosion but exactly how the explosion
was caused is not known. Among
other things, it is suggested that pos
sibly some of the miners made an un'
authorized use of giant powder. UT
to Wednesday afternoon, the bodies Of
over 200 killed had been taken out ot
the mines, and it was estimated that
there might be fully 100 more to be
removed.

ARMIES
ARE A MENACE.
w. BOURKE COCHRAN.

Standing armies always have been
and always must be fatal to free insti-
tutions. To realize the utter incom-
patibility of Militarism and rebub-
licanism we have but to look at
France. When we recall The first
French republic scattering the COM
bined forces vi Europe through the
valor of it's volunteer armies, how
pitiful is the spectacle of the third re-
public covering in fear of it's own
standing army, incapable of welding
any influence abroad, impotent even
to do justice at home.
The. experience of this country
proves that a citizen soldiery is in
vincible against foreign aggression or
domestic insurrection, while all his
tory shows that a mercenary soldiery
has never been so formida able to any
country as the one which supports it.
A standing army in the long run
has always become helpless against
foreign foes, but it has always re-
manned of deadly efficiency against
domestic liberties. :.
The soldier in war may be a hero
the soldier in peace is either useless or
dangerous. The camp may be school
of virtue and patrio iotism, the barracks
are always asylums of laziness and
often hotbeds Of vice. The moral law
lis binding on nations as we'll ason in
diyiduals. A violation of it by either
is always 70 flowed by retributi on, slow,
perhaps, but mex orably stern
He who draws the sword will perish
by the sword, and the republic that es-#
tablishes standing army to smite
freedom in other lands will live to find
her own liberties trampled in the dust
under the feet of q amercenary so1diery.s

monarchy? Our preside lent now carries
Lon. war, he censors the press, a con.
Igress meets and djourns without
making any provisions for the proper
government Of 10, 900, 900 alien people,
and nobody finds any fault with it,
save some of Mr.. =Bryan's admirers.
We certainly find no fault with the
conditions as they exist. The settle
ment of the great Philippine question
is rightly left in the hands Of the presi-
dent. He and his cabinet alone know
the true condition of affairs over
there and consequently they alone can
make the proper and intelligent ar
rangements for their government. This
view of the matter a great majority of
our people take, I believe. What
different conditions would you have
under a monarchy? \
Upon what theory except imperialism m
do republicans Justify the possession
Of the Philippine lslsnds7 For politi.
cal buncombe. we may say: eve
owed It to other nations to keep them. .
But it that be SO, why then buy them7
The other nations should at least have
paid for them if we kept them for their
benefit. How will this nation justify
the great killing Of these people, and
among them some women and children,
IT we do not justify it on the ground
that weak nations must be developed
and governed by the strong7 1t will
not do for US to put up the plea Of re-.
venge for the killing Of some Of our
soldiers by the Philippines, If it were
only men they killed that might do, but
killing women and children must be
justified, If at all, on better and higher
grounds. We SEQ no reason why the
republican party should fear to adopt
imperialism In name as we'll as in the
tendency of its course. The papers of
the country properly directed could
create strong sentiment in is favor
in few weeks if it was thought desir.
able for the welfare Of tho country"
These are the sentiments of McKin-
leyite who knows what McKinleyism
means and is not afraid to admit the
truth. WILL M. MAUPTN.

Clausen as chief inspector, there was
= shrinkage Of $io2. o32.44 in the fund
standing to the credit Of the depart
ment, under an inspection and weighing
toe Of isc per car, making an increase
in the fee imperative In order to save
tho department from bankruptcy and
from being charge upon the tax
payer The fee accordingly was raised
to 25c. Even with a zoe fee there was
loss of S37 ,042. AZ in 1894 and with a
25e fee there was loss of $4,si7.22
under republican administration in 1895:
SO that 25c was judged to be none too
high to place the department upon a.
self-supporting business basis. The
additional burden of SIS, 900 to $40. 900
placed by the last legislation upon the
department to support the new State
Board of Appeals necessitated an in
crease in the fee, even had republican
precedent not disclosed the sl0O. 600
shortage in the two and one-half wears
prior to Chief Inspector Reishus' ap-
pOlntment.
Efficiency in the Weighing Department.
An example of the increased strict
ness and general efficiency achieved
under. thAhpresent administration is
shown by the statistics of the weighing
department. Minnesota export wheat
Is weighed out at Duluth and WEIGHED
in ION arrival" at Buffalo, the other
end of the lake route.
Comparison of the Duluth and
Buffalo weights, therefore, shows the
accuracy of the Minnesota Grain De-
partment officials in weighing. The
following table tells significant story.

the past seven crop years follows:

Professor
Mclaughlin
on
Imperialism

Prof. J. Lawrence Mclaughlin, of
the Chicago University, who was the
foremost and ablest exponent of the
gold standard in the last presidential
campaign of 1896, writes terrific ar
raignment of McKinley's Philippine
policy and predicts that if continued
on present lines it will wreck the Re-
public. Our republican friends were
all quoting Mclaughlin as authority
four years ago but they are mum as a
clam when his name is mentioned in
this campaign.
Prof. Mclaughlin is a strong writer
and we should like to quote him at
length but we have space for but one
of his sledge-hammer blows against
imperialism. He says:
"Suppose an abolitionist in 1860 had
bought a negro from Shareholder.
Would the fact that slavery was legal
in,the United States have prevented the
abolitionist from giving the negro his
freedom? Certainly not; it was only a
question of paying a given sum to do
generous act. Likewise if we like
slave-holders) among subject-holding
monarchies bought the sovereignty of
| the Philippines for S20,00O,0oo are we
thereby bound to follow the example OF
states against whose theories Of sub
ject colonies our very existence is a
constant protest? Far from it. We
! can no more justify holding another
race in subsection against their will
] than an abolitionist: could reconcile
his belief with keeping a slave he had
bought. As a nation of freemep all

stultifying ourselves morally and

ment are as nothing in comparisor

In other words, the loss in weight
during the republican administration
OF the Duluth department ranged from
II to 36 lbs. per 1000 bushels as
against the bagateIle of lbs. under
Governor lind's new regime. The
average loss in six years of republi-
can administration was % lbs.. which
is three times that of the first wear of
the new control. This shows that the
new broom sweeps clean in weighing
as IN inspection, while being a less
heavy burden upon the taxpayer. and
source of far greater justice to the
producer and general business public.

Jesus at the Pharisee's House.
Ascetlclsm finds little encouragement
in the habits of Jesus, He came eat

declined no Invitation we know Of h
worked the first miracle at a wedding
which, in the language of the ritual,
HE adorned and beautified by His pres
euce." He WIS no cold guest, no dis
tapt observer of what transpired. H.
entered with real zest, and made His
contribution to the amenities OF each
occasion, while at the same time He
hallowed and elevated all. No one
who HES himself to desert, shuns the
face Of his fellows and retires, liter
ally or fguratively into a hermlt's
cave, need ever quote the example OF
Jesus in justification. The 'seasons Of
retirement were the exceptions which
proved the rule of contact and fellow

He did not stand upon His dignity. ia
might well have been offended at the
patronizIng DIR in which His invitation
came, aud the economy of courtesy
shown Him on His entrance to the
home Anything seemed good enough
for the Galllean rabbi, and he ought TO
be glad to be hidden at all-such was
the cavalier spirit of the place and
hour. A smaller nature must needs
have resented such indjgnity. Jesus
could afford to Ignore 1t until the time
came to feather His arrow with It.

Jesus was exceedingly sklllful in the
use of passing incidents for the illustra-
tIon of truth. He sized upon them as
on this occasion. He held them up with
the hand OF an adept. This
INCIDENT is only an illustration of n
larger situation. The
clash between Christ and the Pharisgc
wasineVltable, They stood for veneer
able ecclesiastical establishment, but
tressed by tradition and authority. L;
sheltered them, and by Its craft they
had their living. Not that all had sor-
did motives, but the situation was one
to stunt the mind and spirit. They
were naturally alert against Innova-
lions, suspicious and bIgotad. They
could not understand, they were
afraid OF the young reforming Rabbi
OF Nazareth. And In their Judgment It
would be far better that He should be
put to death than all the whole fabric
OF eccleslasticIsm should be brought
down about their ears. The
Pharlsee is a type OF one style of folks
to-day. His sins were negative. He
was lacking in sympathy for thu un-
fortunate and sinful, in faith and love
toward tho Savior. in the spirit OF help
fulness toward tho miserahly unhappy.
His were the sins of the upper classes
OF the present. HI needed to be shaken
from the complleeRey Of his self-Tlght-
eousness. Jesus did 1t sklllfuIly.
The woman was type Of another
inveterate class. Hers were the gross
sins Of the flesh. No omissions, but COM
missions. She had paid the deadly pen
atty in excruciating fortunes OF body
and of mind. But the stream OF Jesus
forglvlng love washed away her fear
ful load, And being forgiven much she
loved much.
