which the war department says
was cabled by Macarthur was
true, then the United States
government spends $72O,0OO for
the care of 5000 sick men, or
S144 per man, exclusive of the
cost OF medicines, nurses and
hospital attendants.
Another astonishing fact that
it requires 400 surgeons and
other medical officers to take
care of 5000 men, if the official
records state the truth. In
other words in requires one con-
tract surgeon at $1,000 a year
to take care of about twelve

1t cost the United States
government the enormous sum
of $4,000 year to keep sur
geons and other medical officers
in the Philippines. This does
not include nurses, hospital
attendants and medicines.
The official records show that
there are 400 medical officers in
the Philippines at an average
salary of $1,000. The war de
partment bulletined recently a
statement that the sickness in
the Philippines army was
slightly over 8 per cent of
60, 900 men, or total sick of
5000. This, it is alleged, is
the average normal sickness.

John Sherman, former secre-

interview, said: 1.-The wealth
we are taking out of our own
country now to fling after
those Philippine islands is fab
ulous. We have taken away
the miners andagriculturist's to
subdue the Filipino native.
Depend up it. the other nat ions
do not envy US, but think us
foolish. Il see not the slightest
sense in our long excursion to
the Philippine islands, 5000
miles away. There we have no
acquaintance or af1inities. or
anything which gives promise
of a happy solution of most
foolish undertaking. The nat
ives show that they do not
want us by the courage with
which they fight us. I fear
that perseverce in this imperial
policy will ruin the Republican
