Nearly every Presbyterian who is preach
ing or allowing himself to be interviewed
on the subject OF a revision of the Con-
fession of Faith is in favor of the change.
but let 1t not be hastily assumed that the
proposed modification will therefore be
speedily brought about. The conservative
old gentlemen who consider the existing
time-hcnored creed a sacred instrument
quite well suited to the present time
as it was to the past are yet to be heard
from. and these gentlemen, it is we'll to
recall. constitute large proportion of the
membership of presbyteries. general as
semblies and ecumenical councils. The re-
form may be begun now. but il is safe to
predict that it will be long time before it
is successfully accomplished.

BOOM FOR SENATOR ALLISON
PRESIDENT M'kINLEY SAID TO PRE-
FER THE IOWA STATESMAN.
His Friends in Washington, However,
of Opinion He Could Not BE Pre-

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON. April H.-Many OF Sena-
tor Fairbankss colleagues are discussing.
in a most friendly spirit, the suggestion Of
his name in connection with the vice pres
idential nomination. The more he is
thought of by the national leaders the bet
ter they like the idea, conclusion they
are not slow in communicating TO him.
Senator Fairbanks remains absolutely nom
committal on the subject. although not un-
mindful of the kindly spirit behind the
constant personal reminders of his avail
ability he is obliged. in spite Of himself, 10
hear. The point most often brought up in
connection with the vice presidential sug-
gestion is the effect his nomination and
election might have on Senator Fair
banks's prospects for the higher honor in
1904 AT first blush many Of his we'll
wishers express the fear that his accept
ance of second place on the ticket this
year might be prejudicial to the broader
and bigger ambition later on. but when IL
is remembered that his relations are and
must continue to be very close and cordial
with the President, whose friendly regard
must follow him to the end Of the second
term and beyond, this objection loses
force. The late Vice President Hobart re-
stored the old friendly fellowship between
President and Vice President. and such re-
lations would be certain TO continue TO the
end between Messrs. Mckinley and Fair
banks should they be thrown into intimate
official association. Senator Fairbanks's
popular strength in the West and the great
esteem with which he is held in the East
are especially dwelt upon by the national
leaders in their discussion OF the distin-
guished Indianian's availability.

Philadelphia papers have long been noted
for the number Of obituary notices pub
lished in each issue. Philadelphia is a large
city and probably its death ratio is no
higher proportionately than that of other
towns and cities, but the impression made
by the daily mortuary record lends mel
ancholy interest to the vital statistics
published each week, showing, as they do.
what 1t is that carries Philadelphians off.
1t appears by this record for the week end
ing April IA that, out of a total of COL
deaths. 2O3 resulted from different forms Of
lung disease-consumption, congestion, in
fammation, etc. This is not inclusive of
fifteen cases of bronchial Inflammation or
forty-six cases of Influenza, a malady in
which the lungs are usually more or less
affected. No other disease approached this
rate of mortality, the list running: Heart
disease, 80; commissions, %; kidneys, 26;
apoplexy, "a; measles, %. and so on down
to a case of suicide. 1t might be thought.
judging from the long-cOntinued complaints
of the character of the Schuylkill water,
that the overlooking of Philadelphia stom-
achs with the soil of Pennsylvania would
sufficiently explain the mortuary figures,
but alluvium would not "go to the lungs"
hence the prevalence of difficulties with
the breathing apparatus must be ascribed
to other causes. Perhaps the citizens wear
their respiratory organs out in argument
tative discussions of their love for Wanna
maker and Quay; perhaps they get out Of
breath with running to subscribe to the
national convention fund; perhaps they die
of sheer misunderstanding to draw
their breath-after reading the Philadel-
phia Sunday papers. But why speculate?
There is evidently a microbe in the case
which the health officers have not yet dis
covered Meanwhile. the obituary columns
are featured In the most enterprising
style and form one of the Distinguishing,
characteristics of the Philadelphia press.

The recent announcement that Aguinaldo
report of efforts to find and arrest him.
Perhaps the American authorities think 1T
would be unwise to make a martyr of him.
Lieutenant George III. Knox, formerly as
sistant chief of police in Manila, who has
just returned to this country, says that
il Aguinaldo is really hiding in Manila
the Macabebes will make short work of
him if they can find him. The Americans
would hardly know what to do with him
If they should capture him, but the Mac
abebes, who have bitter hatred of him,
would not be embarrassed that way.

That correspondence.

Said Carter TO dArcos:
''Will you come and visit us
When we celebrate the doings
OF the day that awful muss
Was started by our Dewey
AT your governments expense?
Will you come and hear the story
OF hopeless, brave defense?
Will you come and hear repeated
How he riddled men and boats
Will you come and let us lick you
With our bunting and our floats?"
Said d'Arcos unto Carter,
While his eyes emitted flame:
al do not care to visit
You; are you devoid of shame,
That you should take this method
To rub it in on me.
This is Iuy first red-hot one
Got in Amerikee,
'Twould hardly be pleasure
For me TO sit and watch
While Yankee vessels hammered
Our nav to a blotch
'Twould not, perhaps, convulse me,
To see my countrymen
Made into wurst!''

Senator Hoar is entitled to the respect
which pertains TO old age. patriotic service
and honest convictions. but beyond that his
defense OF Aguinaldo and his followers
carries no weight whatever. His assump-
ton that the war in the Philippines is one
of aggression and conquest on the part or
the United States ignores the truth OF his
tory and reverses the position between the
United States and those in instruction
against its rightful authority. His plan
for the disposition OF the Philippines is
magnanimous. ideal and almost diviney
beautiful but II does not possess any ele-
nent CT practical craftsmanship or COM
mon sense. Its adoption would make the
United States the laughing stock OF na-
tions and would relegate the Philippine
1slands TO a condition OF tribal warfare in
