GENERAL Otis, late commanding in
the Philippines, seems to possess the
courage of his opinions, and to utter
them in the same form and manner,
now that his personal interest in the
islands has ceased, as before. He in
sists i'm Washington, as at Manila, that
the backbone of the insurrection in the
Philippines Is broken, and that the
forces of the United States already in
the country are sufficient for its pacifi-
cation and protection. General Otis,
in the face of much assertion to the
contrary, insists that the Filipino is, on
the whole, good man; that he is the
best of the Asiatic races I'm the Pacific;
that the little brown man is learner,
a striver after knowledge, and that the
spread of American ideas through edu-
cational institutions will yet make a
good American citizen of the Filipino

AMID all the strife for place and
power in politics our little county con-
tinues to move along the even tenor of
its way, undIsturbed by factional con.
tentions, within or without. The rec
ords of all the officers who are eligible
to reelection have been such as to fair
ly entitle them to it, if they desire, and
those who have served the limit Of time
which the law allows will retire from
office with the cordial good will of their
fellow citizens. The affairs of the
county have been administered so con-
scientiously and economically that it is
no wonder that no mutterings of dis
content are heard, or any clamors for
change. The people are quite content
to let well enough alone.

the white space, that the one short-com-
ing may be overlooked. Advertisers
should learn to suit their advertising to
the season. During midsummer, when
the heat is intense and mans patience is
strained to the breaking point, use few
words and abundant white space
1t may be added in this connection
that the advertisements of Thomas &
Newcomb have been the subject of
frequent favorable comment. They
occupy modest space it is true but
they cultivate that we'll and make it
pay them. Their idea-and the cor
rect one-is to employ few words,
calling attention only to special lines,
and make frequent changes. There
is nothing ambiguous about their an
nouncements and what is still better
no attempt to cnumerate every article
in stock.
One great trouble with most mer-
chants is. that they do not permit OF
enough white space in their adver-
tisements and overlook the import
ance OF making frequent changes. 1t
is much better to write less aud write
oftener to get the best results from
ones advertising.
