A Bad Bargain Says Judge Canty.

Judge Canty, late of the Minnesota
supreme court, returned from a four
months visit to the Philippines whittier
ne went soon after the expiration of his
judicial term, as representative of the
state for the purpose of arranging for a
supply of hemp for the twine factory at
the state prison.
The judge is not an extreme partisan,
is a man of intelligence and good prac-
tical judgment, whose opinion has been
looked forward to with a good deal of
interest by those really anxious for reli-
able news about our new possessions.
In regard to the general situation the
judge said: "There is very unfortunate
state of affairs existing in the Philip
pines today. I had been led to believe
that the lnsurrectlon was ended and that
there was very little more to do in the
way of Strengthening out things, unfort-
unately this is very far from being the
case. The trouble has simply begun.
The organized conflict and resistance is
unquestionably thing of the past, but
there exists resistance of more pro-
voking character. The natives are un-
questlonably we'll organized, in an effort
to prosecute guerilla warfare. The most
intelligent and influential Tagals, in nv
judgment are managing this guerilla
fight. They liken their fight and their
cause to the conditions that existed
when Washington and his colonial com
rades were fighting for freedom from
British 1ule. The Tagals know that
Washington and his band were driven
from one place to another, and were
pursuing what appeared to be an abso-
lutely hopeless cause, but were finally
victorious. These insurgents also take

There i hardly any territory on the.
island Of Luzon where white man is1
secure today, excepting where the Amer

native IN one, tWos and thIees, some
times il larger numbers are assassinat-
ing right and left. The men who are in.
charge Of the army service wagons, and
going from post to post, are picked of
by the natives.
Gen. OTIS is no doubt an honest and
faithful official. do not regard him as
the most alert and capable officer in the
world by any means. He is an optimists
of the most pronounced kind. He thor
oughly believes that trouble is practl-
cally over. He gives little credence to
the opinion Of those who hold that very
serious trouble will come from the guer-
lila warfare that the natives are pursu-5
ing. Some Of the Americans who are
advising Gen. Otis are, in my judgment,
wilfully and deliberately misleading
him. Many of the fairly prominent ma
tives from whom General Otis takes adj
vice are unquestionably misleading him
and, while in the pay Of the American
government, are secretly communicating
important information to the men who
are engineering the warfare. IA
"When l lett America 1 was Of the
opinion that the whole Philippine mat
ter was most unfortunate for our gov
ernment. After my visit and inquiry ]
am more convinced than ever that it was
an unfortunate Gay when we bargained
for these islands. very much doubt the
ability of the natives to- establish and
maintain very intelligent and stable
government-I certainly believe the Fill
ipinos incapable of governing themselves
as we govern ourselves-but neverthe-
less believe that we should withdraw
from the islands, retaining only Manila,
Iloila and other large seaports and tell
ing the natives to go ahead and to the
best that they can in the way of self
government. We should control the
tariffs of the seaports. and get as much
of our $20,000,000 back as possible. I
would not advise absolute surrender of
the islands, manly for the-reason that
such action would be followed by seri-
Gus international complications"
Judge Canty said he would not be a
candidate for the governorship. He
maintained that Governor Lind was the
logical candidate and would be COM
PEELED by circumstances to- accept an
other term.

EVIDENCE OF DELUGE.
Ohio Professor Will Penetrate Far ST.
IBERIA on This Mission.

New York, Sept 21.-The Rev. DIR. G.
S. Gregory, editor of the Homiletic Re
view has just received a letter from the
Rev. DR.. George Frederick Wright of
Oberlin college, Ohio, which discloses the
object of a trip the professor has started
to make through Siberia He is consid-
cred an authority on the glacial period
of the earth's geological history and re-
fuses to accept the theory that the de-
luge merely submerged the regions
round about Palestine. He believes that
when the author of the Pentateuch said
the waters covered 1.-The face of the
earth he meant it.
Prof Wright will go through the
mountains of Siberia, far from where
men ordinarily go. There he will make
excavations. He will dig up the earth
until with the egologist's eye, he dis
covers just that stratum which should
have been deposited during the period
in which the deluge took place. Next he
will explore the CausausuS rane, down
to Ancient Ararat, where traditions says
the ark landed and emerge from his
travels somewhere near Smyrna, Asia
Minor.
If in all the mountain regions he ex-
plores, DR.. Wright finds the remains of
the sea for which he looks, he will con-
clude that the deluge was an historical
fact.

the fusion ticket, and as opposition to
an electoral candidate is opposition to
Mr. Bryan, we, the committees of the
Democratic and Populist parties of Har-
Sey county, denounce Charles Butcher as
an enemy of the party and traitor to
the cause, and further urge the state
committees not to place him upon the
stump anywhere in the state, as, il done,
it would cost us many votes in this
county,"

ty committee, and Arthur L. Rose, joint

The following answer to the general as
sembly will be made by the st. Louis
presbytery:-
while recognizing that certain forms of
expression found in the confession of faith
might be altered without impafring the in

What They Want Before Call
ing Strike Off.
OUTLOOK NOT GOOD
General Impression That Settlement viii
Not Result From the First
Convention.

Special to the Bee.
Scranton, Pa, Oct. ia convention
of anthracite miners will begin tomor-
row. What the outcome of the conven-
tion will be is still a matter of specula-
tion and opinions expressed tonight by
labor leaders are widely divergent. Dele
gates to the convention have all sorts of
instructions from their local unions on
propositions of the operators. Most of
them now on the ground will vote to re-
ject 10 per cent increase unless the
operators make further concessions.
Many of the miners will not favor the
advance until the operators give guar
antee that the increase will be continued
in force for fixed length of time.
Others want the union recognized be-
fore they will accept 10 per cent in
crease, and other concessions.
The belief is general that in the ab-
sence Of any uniform instructions among
the delegates, the chances of settlement
by the convention are rather slight. It
is the impression of several leaders that
at least second convention will have to
be held before any definite action will be
taken looking toward an early ending of
the strike.
