leaders say, will apply not only TO the st.

DEMOCRATIC SOLDIER SPEAKS.
He Has No sympathy with His Party's
Opposition to the War.

Letters from soldiers in the Philippines
show without exception that the writers,
regardless of their political affiliations, have
no sympathy with the Democratic policy
which opposes the subjugation of the re-
bellious Filipinos or the further carrying
on of the war. An expression Of this senti-
ment is given below in an extract from
a letter written TO his father by Capt. o. p.
Lee. Company E. Forty-fifth Volunteer In
fantry. and published in the Lebanon Qnd.)
Pioneer. Captain Lee says:
You speak of the attitude of some of
the Democratic papers toward this war.
Father, want to say this: at home / am
Democrat from topknot to gaiter bottom.
Here in the army / am soldier, and Ii Is
unnecessary for me to say that am not in
sympathy with this policy of many Demo-
cratic and few Republican papers decry-
ing the war and demanding the withdrawal
of troops 1t beyond question encourages
these fellows to keep UP their nefarious
methods of warfare and is therefore help
ing to multiply soldiers graves among the
sequestered mountains and marshes of this
far away land. This is now confessedly
American territory and must be tranquil
lied, and Democrat or Republican, the
President is my President and your Presi-
dent, and in war at least must be upheld.
We who are In the service are in no sense
anxious to prolong our stay In these
islands, and / for one naturally long to be
see this thing through. We got into this
war by perfectly natural processes and we
are going to get out OF IL by the only logical
and honorable way-hght it out-'wipe up
the earth with these 'gugus.' What other
way can be proposed or even thought of
for a minute? You can't temporize with
these people. The more you treat with
them the more impudent and aggressive
they become. The colored people in the
South have a saying which applies to this
situation: Don't 'spute wild de squinch
owl on de top OBJ de chimney; jam de
shobel in de fire. And the only possible
way to bring this affair to a speedy ter
mination Is for soldiers here to keep
ceaselessly after these fellows as we are
and for our fellow-countrymen at home
to give the army and the government their
answering support while this job is be-
ing finished Depend upon Ii, the insur-
rectionists are strangers to principles of
Cancellation. They look upon il as an evil
dence of cowardice. Yet they themselves
are deficient in physical courage. They will
fire on from their trenches, and as we
advance on them, returning the fire, they
will either secrete their guns and hide
themselves I'm the grass or bushes or fall
on their knees and cross themselves or, not
less frequently. pull out white flag and
wave 1t. proclaiming themselves 'mucho
amigo. E"

One of Them Had a Bloody Face When
the Fun Was Over.

There were a few loud words, and then

hurried to the place. just in time to see two
young men gather up broken violin box,
Z broken violin and broken guitar.
Ones face looked as If it had been run
through a meat cutter. The other was with
out a scratch. When asked what had hap
pened the one with the bloody face said,
Were just two brothers foolin'." One OF
the patrolmen said. We'll, IL you're two
brothers foolin you better find your way
home as soon you can The manner in
which the two young men went down the
street gave much amusement to the crowd
on the corner.
