civilizins the Filipins..

A telegram from Washington to the
Chicago Chronicle gives this account
of recent Philippine wedding:
'"Thomas w. Jones, private in
Troop G, Eleventh Cavalry, writing
from Santa Cruz, Philippine Islands.
tells how sixty members Of his regi-
ment were ordered out to kill or cap
ture famous Filipino general, known
to be living in the neighborhood. The
generals house was located, and the
Americans crawled through the under
brush until they secured positions but
a few yards distant. Then they dis
covered they had unwittingly CHANGED
upon wedding. There was a large
crowd present to take part in the fes-
tivities. Most Of them, Of course,
were women and children, but there
were about seventy-five men present
who were armed. The Americans
were ordered to fire volley from am
bush and then charge, which they did
with terrible results.
"'The scene which resulted was hor-
rible," writes Private Jones. On the
ground near the house lay the body Of
the bride, whose brains had been
blown out The groom, who had re-
'ceived a bullet in the stomach, was
lying near by, dying. Twelve Of the
Filipinos had been killed and about
the same number wounded. An, eld-
erly woman was shot through the leg,
and little child had her arm shot off.
"'But we got the old general all
right, and we burned the insurgents
quarters before we left,' ends the. let

other stanza Of that beautiful poem
previously referred to, wherein the
thoughts of the learned author and
poet so forcibly remind us of past
history by the following most appro.
pirate words:
Three times hath Europe on thee gazed
And maryeled at thy power,
Then fierce the fires of battle blazed
In wars disastrous hour;
And each time hath she seen thee rise
A vision of delight
More brilliant and more beautiful
When God has crowned the right.
Our flag cannot be made to repre-
sent republic at home and an empire
abroad. 1t cannot be made the en-
blem of liberty and free government
on American soil and the emblem of
human slavery and despotism in for
eign lands. God forbid it shall ever
be dishonored by upholding the wrong
or yielding to the right.
May Heaven grant it shall ever re-
main the emblem
OF the faith our fathers cherished,
And for which they fought and per-
ished-
All honor to Old Glory.

Saved by a cruciflx.

Some American soldiers who had, by
hands of the Filipinos, had been con-
delnned to execution, and, as related
by Lieutenant Commander Gilmore in
McClure's, they owed their escape
from death to a peculiar circumstance:
II have always believed" says the
soldier who relates the incident, chat
the lieutenant's refusal to obey orders
and execute us was due to the effect
produced in his mind by an incident
which had occurred a night or two
earlier. At one Of our stops he had
shown me crucifix which he wore
hung by ribbon around his neck,
and said to me: ThefAmericanos are
not Christians oh, yes,' replied,
all the Americans are Christians
But you never wear any crucifixes.'
L opened my jacket and showed him
my breast. A crucifix had been tat
tooed there years ago, when 1 was a
midshipman. The Tagal leaped to his
feet with an exclamation of surprise
He instantly crossed himself. His
eyes nearly started out of his head.
explained to him that any one could
buy a crucifix and hang it around his
neck, but that I had endured pain to
have my crucifix pricked in the flesh,
and that, as he could see, it must al
ways be with me. There was a marked
change in his manner toward me after
that" -s...-s.,,--...

 No one had questioned the law or the plan intent of the founders of the consti- tuition down to the time that the tariff ben efciaries became alarmed. Even MT. Mic Kinley read the constitution as the supreme court had read and construed it from it's adoption. And when 1t is remembered that we possessed and were legislating for the great northwest territory at the time the constitution was adopted, it is impossible to believe that the framers of that instrument intended one rule for a state and another rule for land not included in state; for if they had so intended they would have said So beyond doubt or dispute
 The tariff ring is now trying to change the constitution; and if tne1r construction is accepted, the door is opened for imper- ialism and colonial system, and schemes of robbery that will render Spanish rule attractive. The history of this country shows that tariff beneficaries are merci- less They plunder to the limit and if they succeed in putting the Porto Rico bill through the new possessions may as we'll get ready to be plucked in a thousand ways

No Compromise is Desirable.

The are a few republicans who do not propose to change the constitution at the dictation of the tariff-grabbers. and they are giving the republican leaders a great deal of trouble. Efforts at compromise were made on Saturday, but they were then volved does not admit of a compromise that any honest man can accept. Either Porto Rico is a part of the United States, or 1t Is not. Either congress has a right to tax right. There is no halfway house, so far as constitutional right is concerned. To limit the proposed 25 per cent. rate to two years would be unconstitutional, revolu- tionary and dishonest as the original Payne bill would be. They do not differ at all in principle, however much they may in policy. If the government can levy taxes on imports from Porto Rico for day, 1t can levy them for all time, and the repub- licans who are standing on principle can- not accept one plan anymore than they can the other without self-stultification.
 It is also proposed to turn the spbject over to the president without instructions or guide; but if they give him a free hand they will trespass as much upon the con- stitution as they would if they passed the Payne bill. The issue should be fought out, and either the constitution as 1t reads and as it has been construed should be reaf- firmed or else it should be discredited and battered out of shape. Either result is bet ter than a temporizing compromise, be- cause the people will reject the bill as it came from the ways and means committee. and the constitution can thus be more quickly re-established
