WHAT RETIRED SOLDIER SAY
About the Condition Of Things in the Philip
pines.

The Kansas City Times says: A train
of II cars, bearing four companies A, B.
c and D-of United States soldiers, con-
stltutlng the LIST battalion of the 18th
regular infantry, passed through the city
last night, jart Of them on their way to
Fort Wayne, near Detroit, and part of
them to Fort Brady, Mich. Each COM
PAW number about 60 men. The soldiers
seemed to be unanimously of the opinion
that the wcr IS as far from ended as
when the fighting first began. "Wher-
ever the soldiers are said one. 1.-The
country is quiet, but everywhere else
they are in arms, and the country won't
be pacifed until the niggers are all killed
Oft like the American Indians He was
only a private. The officers we're more
guarded in their statements. But Capt.
Yeatman, the commanding officer, a man
OF intelligence and of recognized bravery.
and Lieut.. Field, also a DISTINGUISHED
soldier, expressed themselves in much
the same terms. 1T is hard to say about
the pacllcatiOn of the islands" said Capt.
lcatman, because much depends upon
the character OF the natives-that is,
whether they will really stick to their
expressed determination or whether they
are subject to a few leaders who will
be killed or captured. Somehow, it's
strange you know" said the captain with
a meaning smile-"those fellows lave
the idea that they have a right to their
own homes, and l believe they will keep
up the fight"
John A. Robinson Of Fitchburg, who has
spent a year in the Philippines serving
in the regular army, has returned, honor
ably discharged, having been wounded
in battle. He was a member of Co. B,
ed infantry, with which he served in
Cuba and the Philippines. He expressed
surprise at the idea people in this coun-
try entertain OF the Philippines, as we'll
as Of Gen. Otis and life in the army Ac-
cording to Mr.. Robinson. there is almost
continued and universal f~ault-fnding by
the soldiers, owing to the poor rations
that are served them. There is not much
to be had out Of the country, of which
he does not hold a very high opinion.
The farmer and mechanic. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 18??-19??, 1900-05-29
WILL NOT BE ENTERTAINED.

The Raleigh Chamber Of Commerce,
as will be remembered. some time
since adopted a resolution looking
to the entertainment by our citizens
Of the members Of the General AS
semblv at the adjourned session OF
that body TO convene next month.
and appointed a committee 10 take
charge Of the matter. Since that
time. representations have been made
to the committee by the Speaker OF
the House of Representatives and by
other prominent members of the Cen
eral Assembly that the members OF
that body would prefer that the pro
posed extension of our hospitality
should not be carried into effect.
They appreciate the offer to make
them the guests of the city but hin
it inadvisable for public servants IN
the discharge Of high public duties
to accept the private hospitality OF
our people. Ia Difference to the eN-
pressed wishes Of our anticipated
guests. the committee has regretful-
" abandoned any further action III
the matter.
