that Colonel William Jennings Bryan
Wall cut this city out of his itinerary.

ranged to have Colonel Bryan speak in

transposed as the request of the
Tacoma committee. Later they were
placed as in the first instance. Seattle

take Colonel Bryan on a flying trip to
cities after he had finished here.
This arrangement, if carried out,
would have left Colonel Bryan only
time TO speak at an evening meeting at
Tacoma. The COMMITTEES at the latter
place objected and Secretary Maloney
ruled in their favor, thus cutting out
the Whatcom trip. Tonight Secretary
Maloney was notified by members Of

Democrats on the local committee
hope to have the matter patched UP,

Serious State of Affairs In the Is
lands Made Known Through an
Uncensored Letter-Efcrts Made
to Suppress the Small Rowing
Bands of Insurgents.

San Francisco, March 22.-The
steamer Hongkong Maru brings from
Hongkong news of a surprising state
Of affairs existing in the Philippines.
The correspondent Of Hongkong pa
per sends the following uncensored let
ter to his journal:
ma lila, Feb. bit is strange STATE
of affairs that exists in the Philippines
today ImprOveme nt is Wis bic il nearly
every quarter. Civil governments are
rapidly being established in every town
Of Importance and garrisons and pa
trolls are in process Of extension wher-
ever Americans hold territory, and yet
it is an undeniable fact that since Jan
l. the inSurgent forces have captured a
number Of rifles and quantities OF am
nutrition from the Americans almost
equaling the sum total Of American
captures from the insurgents. Besides
this the casualty rate for the last two
weeks will come very close TO being
heavier than at any other period of the
insurrection, with the exception of the
time of the outbreak and the fortnight
beginning with March 25 1899. These
are hard facts TO swallow and some
what alarming in the bargain.
Killed By Guerillas.
THE threatened guerilla warfare that
was heard on every side seems to be a
stern reality and parties of fifty or
smaller numbers are ambuShed and
Jumped day after DAY. Supply trains,
small escorts and scouting parties are
the special objects of attack and the
country seems to be full Of small rowing
bands, waiting at every convenient
cover until the prey is caught
In one or two instances heavy pa
trolls or strong scouting parties have
quickly avenged these raids by setting
out Immediately and hunting down and
killing as many of the marauders as
possible. These lessons have not been
forgotten and in the immediate dis
trictS there have been no repetitions Of
the trouble.
The authorities are giving the ques-
ton considerable attention and every
effort will be made to insure the public
safety, for on this depends the future
of the country. England's policy in
India is frequently discussed and her
swift and severe punishments are look
ed upon as model peacemakers. The
arms were probably captured from
conmisSary trains -

FACED BY A CONDITION.
Secretary of the Navy Long Speaks
on the Philippines.

Boston, Mass, March 22.-John D.
Long, secretary of the navy, was the
guest Of the Middlesex club at the
American House tonight, which was
observed as veterans night" Nearly
zoo members of the club were present.
In the couree of his speech, Secretary
Long said:
ut is no use to shut our eyes to the
fact that a fight is on. 1t is no use
to deny that opposition is strong and
has grown stronger, as it always grows
stronger on the eve Of an election. It
is no use to deny that there are malcon-
tents and hoEest dOubters. The honest
dOubter must be honestly met and
honestly answered. He is deserving of
the highest respect and the most candid
argument.
1T is true that our territorial acqui-
sitions have brought most serious prob
lens. The Philippines are ours by the
solema compact Of a treaty. They are
ours, too, by the acquiescence ~sf the
larger part Of the native inhabitants.
We are thereby right, and we are
bound to stay, by every duty. Il is not
a theory which confronts lie, but a
condition. We, therefore, ask our crit,
les not to spin theories of what might
have been done, but TO cooperate with
us and to help US take our duty and
discharge it.

viency of the Republican party to or
ganized wealth is more apparent now
than ever before. In 1896 some of the
Republicans were deceived by the
promise of international binletalliem,
but now that promise can no longer
deceive. Certainly no silver Repub-
lican can go back to the Republican
party now, when the Republican lead
er5 are attempting to make the gold
standard permanent and vet confess
the failure of the gold standard by the
senate amendment, which seeks to re-
vive the hope Of International bimetal-
hsm.''
No Populist who believes that the
government ought to issue money, will
help the Republican party when that
party is endeavoring to retire the
greenbacks in the interest of national
banks of Issue.
The reform forces stood together in
1896 in their effort to secure financial
independence; they ought to stand to-
gether now when, in addition to finan-
cial independence. we have to fight for
industrial independence, endangered by
the trusts, and for the Declaration Of
Independence itself, which is threat
ened by imperialism. Very truly yours,
