LAWToN'S LAST LETTER.

"I would to God that the truth of
this whole Philippine situation could
be known to every one in America
as 1 know it. If the real history,
inspiration and conditions of this in
surrection, and the influences, local
and external, that now encourage the
enemy, as well as the actual possi-
bilities of these islands and peoples
and their relations to this great
East, could be understood at home,
we would hear no more talk of un-
just Shooting of government into
the Filipinos, or of hauling down
our flag in the Philippines. If the
so-called anti-imperialists would
honestly ascertain the truth on the
ground and not in distant America,
they, whom L believe to be honest
men and misinformed, would be con-
vinced of the error of their state
ments and conclusions and of the
unfortunate effect of their publica-
tions here. If am shot by a Fill
pino bullet, it might as we'll come
from one of my own men, because
know from observations confirmed
by captured prisoners that the con-
tinuance of fighting is chiefly due to
reports that are sent out from
America"
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1900-09-15

there is majority Of only one. An instance
occurred at the last election in the Eleventh
ward Of Utica, n. Y. There was a majority OF
one vote. These were the figures 1892.
Fancy what would have taken place with printed
ballots! The count would have been disputed.
Recounts and counts again would have been
made. The announcement would have been de-
layed till the hours Of morning, and then the
matter would not have been settled. There would
have been defective ballots on which TO hand
contest, and possibly appeal to the courts, with
all the interest both parties would have felt in
the outcome which decided the control of the
council! The machine has no defective ballots,
none marked, nothing but the plain record Of
what the voters have done. The majority Of one
was accepted on the instant and no contest bad
feeling, excitement or extra expense follows
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1900-09-15


Wv y OULD NOT our adver-
\N saries have sent Dewey's
fleet to Manila to cap
ture and destroy the
Spanish sea power there, or, dis
patching it there, would they have
withdrawn 1t after the destruc-
tion of the Spanish fleet; and if the
latter, whittier would they have direct
ed it to sail? Where could it have
gone? What port in the Orient was
open to it? DO our adversaries con-
denim the expedition under the COM
mand of General Merritt to strengthen
Dewey in the distant ocean and assist
in our triumph over Spain, with which
nation we were at war? Was 1t not
our highest duty to strike Spain at
every vulnerable point that the war
might be successfully concluded at the
earliest practical moment?
And was 1t not our duty to protect
the lives and property Of those who
came within our control by the for
tunes of war? Could we have come
away dl any lllllt between May L, 1oJc,
and the conclusion of peace without a
stain upon our good name? Could we
have come away without dishonor at
any time after the ratification of the
peace treaty by the senate of the
United States?
There has been no time since the
destruction of the enerny's fleet when
we could or should have left the Phil
ippine archipelago. After the treaty
of peace was ratified no power but
congress could surrender our sover-
eighty or ALLEVIATE a foot of the terri
tory thus acquired. The congress has
not seen fit to do the one or the other
| and the president had no authority to
| do either if he had been so inclined.
which he was not. SO long as the SOW
| creignty remains in us it is the duty
of the executive, whoever he may be,
to uphold that sovereignty, and if it be
| attacked to suppress it's assailants.
Would our political adversaries do
| less?

w VE HAVE received from
AN d. c. Heath 4 Co. an
interesting pamphlet in
defense of the vertical
system of writing now taught in our
schools. Accompanying the pamphlet
is a request for an opinion upon that
style of writing.
our opinion is not likely to have
any influence upon the battle now
Waging among excitable pedagogues
for and against simDlifed penman-
ship; but the test of every day expert
ence fully sustains those who prefer
the vertical to the old-fashioned Spen-
cerian slant kind of writing. In
newspaper Office where legibility is the
first and last consideration in penman-
ship those who write the vertical
hand are blessed by editors, compost
tors and proofreaders while those who
do not are very often reprobated. In
the copyright registry department Of
the Congressional library at Washing
ton, where legibility of writing is Of
the utmost Importance, often deter
mining weighty issues at law, the ver-
tical hand only is tolerated, a result
not due to a fad but to experience.
Our vote can be counted upon every
time for the vertical system. We are
glad to know that 1t is to be con-
tinued in our schools.

"If there is any one who believes
the gold standard is a good thing,
or that it must be maintained, I
warn him not to cast his vote for
me, because I promise him it will
not be maintained in this country
longer than I am able to get rid of
it."-William Jennings Bryan in a
Speech at Knoxville, Tenn, Deliv-
cred Sept. 16, 1896.

got farther north than DIR. Nansen by
methods quite unlike the latter's seems
to throw no new light on polar ex-
ploration, but the announcement that
accurate observations have been
pushed to a point nineteen miles
nearer what we call the north pole
than has hitherto been reached will
thrill human Imagination the world
over.
Two hundred and seven more miles
remain to be traversed before the mys-
tic spot is reached which Henry Hud-
son started for three centuries ago. In
that period human ingenuity and
daring have penetrated about three
hundred miles farther than he was
able to go. Who can say that what
remains will ever be crossed by man?
The success of the latest effort is GER
tain to inspire other adventurous splr-
its to new attempts.

only hope of obtaining power lies in
the suppression of human rights and in

party is so much concerned about the

~ ECENT DISPATCHES from
- South Africa indicate that
"A " the BOer war is virtually at
an end. The former Presi-
dent Kruger has arrived at Lorenzo
Marques, evidently with no idea of re-
turning to the Transvaal, and Captain
Reichman, the American military at
tache appointed to observe the cam
paign for this government, has re-
quested instructions in view Of the de-
parture of other attaches. and has
been ordered to return to this country.
These two circumstances mean that
the entire collapse is not far off when
England's triumph will be complete.
The South African war, which re-
Gently, on account of the Chinese
crisis. has to a certain extent been OBJ
sCured in press reports, has upon the
whole been interesting. The Boer ul
timatum was issued October ., 1899,
the British reply was prepared the
next day and a proclamation of war
was issued at Pretoria October u.
Eleven months have thus elapsed
since the campaign was opened AL
though the area covered was compara-
lively small, the war has been carried
on with n stubbOrnncss on part of the
Dutch that has prolonged for nearly a
year a campaign that considering the
overwhelming forces of the British
was expected to last but a few weeks
The contest has demonstrated that
small bodies of comparatively unorgan-
lied troops armed with modern imple-
ments of war and intrenched in ad-

well shudder at the probable results.
The South African war has been in

evident desire on part of the contest

but also for the horoism and high de-

YOUNG MAN in Richmond.
~ Va, has been seized with a
4 N desire to shine as a hypno-
tist. He has been quite the
most popular man in his set by reason
of the entertainment he has been able
to afford with his amateur efforts at
making his friends do weird things.
But young Mr.. Cooks popularity has
suddenly waned and the people in
whose parlor he was giving the anna
teur performance now are not at
nome when he sends up his card.
1t was all on account of a little
Ieance the other evening when a young
nan of frail physique was the subject.
Mr. Cook had hypnotized him after
which he was assured that he was an
Gthlete of fabulous strength. The sub
ect Immediately arose and event for"
hings. He tipped over the piano and
hen pitched a china cabinet across
he room; then he uprooted the radia-
or and smashed a sideboard. All this
Ime Operator Cook was vainly en-
leavoring to wake up the subject but
eemed to have lost the combination.
Physicians were called in but with
lhe united strength of the assemblage
they found 1t difficult to subdue the
astonishing energy of the hypnotized
man. 1t was only after several hours
Of hard work that he was aroused
from his trance.
The indiscriminate use OF the hyp-
motto influence should be restrained by
law. People are bad enough and weak
enough when managed by their own
impulse, but to have their bad tenden'
cies strengthened and their Wills
weakened by someone else probably
worse than themselves is to be de-
plored.
