Copyright, 1900, Associated Press0 Manila, Sept, 2-The Filipinos seem incapable of realizing the scope and purpose of the legislative functions of l the commission of peace. There is no possibility of separating the legislative from the executive branches of the gov ernment, and therefore the commission S announcement of it's assumption of pow CT yesterday has met with childish con- ments at the hands of the Spaniards and foreigners who jealously sheer at | the new arrangement as they are apt to do at every beneficial innovation on the part of the United States authori- ties The commission enters upon the governmental field under the following conditions:
 A majority of the islanders desire peace and the resumption of business under the Americans, but they are so cowed by a long series of murderous atrocities and destruction of property by their armed countrymen that they dare not actively show their feelings, especially because experience has taught them what such an expression of sentiment will bring upon them from the nercilessly revengeful rebels. A genuine reign of terror Is exercised by insurgents and Ladrones over peaceful country folk In order to collect the rev. enue and recruits their operations re- quire and widespread vengeance is wrecked in the vicinity of garrisoned towns. For example, the insurgent gen. eral Cailles in the province of Laguna, put to death the president and office holders of the town of Bay on Lagunda Bay, officials who had been installed by the Americans. and gave orders that a similar fate should be meted out to other adherents of the American cause. He also ordered that all Filipino SOL diers who sold their rifles to the Amer leans should be killed.

But In southern Lu- zon conditions are far from satisfac- tory. Life there is not safe outside the garrisoned towns. Travellers are sub- ject to ambush by guerillas. Rarely does a day pass without an encounter between the United States troops and the insurgents or Ladrones resulting in casualties. There are 1S000 troops in that district General Bates, com and in three regiments over a third of the men are sick. The activity of the enemy increased last month. There is evidence that the insurgents have come into possession of new rifles and that they wish to annihilate some small American garrison.

Possibility of the Loan Being Contracted

in France.
 London, Sept 2.-The principal dark spot on the financial horizon is the pos sibility of a big Russian loan contract ed in France. It is known that Russia needs something like G40,000,000 ($200,- 000,000) to complete the Siberian rail- road, the necessity of which has been demonstrated during the Chinese crisis. 1t is argued that if the Russian minis ter of finance, Me De Witte, gets the loan in addition to supplying Russia with the sinews of war in case she should be disposed to break the peace, the large amount secured would enable M De Witte to recommence his auto- maniac policy of hording gold, thus disturbing the money markets of the world.

The subject of this sketch is an ex-
ample of what the west can do for a
young man of ability, energy and edu-
cation, combined with stability and
uprightness of character. Prof Leamy
was born of good old Irish stock at
Petersham, Mass, thirty years ago.
He received his education in the pub

after teaching for some time in
Worcester county he entered the State
College at Amherst, from which insti-
tuition he graduated with high honor.
Later he enrolled at the Boston Uni
versity, pursuing a scientific course
Young Leamy received his degree from
that institution in 1896 and came to

here long, however; his ability was
soon recognized and his advancement

Evidently. then, other Republicans

In winding up his diatribe Young
says to the Governors: II am glad to

the state is to be congratulated, for
you are without question the biggest
hypocriIe and political humbug that
ever darkened the door of the state

1t is safe to say that Young reckons

state who appreciate an honest gov

two years longer To do otherwise

Let me, then, sum up what Gov.
Lind and his administration have ac-
complished for the people of this
state. and let me say again that the
election of Gov. Lind's associates upon
the ticket is as important as the cleo

organization in this state who has

when supported by men of like char

He has solved to great extent the
proper theory of taxation, and has
instituted reforms upon that subject
which will forever benefit the peonle
of this state.
He has remodeled the grain depart
ment and secured it's just administra-
ton.
He has remedied the evils which had
crept into the binding Irvine industry.
He has secured equal and lower
railroad rates for shippers in the state
of Minnesota.
He has protected the people as to
their right to control the St. Paul e.
Duluth railway.
He has secured an efficient dis
charge of the duties devolving upon
the public examiner, the insurance
commissioner, the food and dairy COM
missioner and the superintendent of
public instruction.
He has produced concord and am.

state, and, finally, he has given to
the people of this state an example of
a chief executive whose public and
private life is pure and unsullied, rs

been a father, and whose simple life
and transformations manner has won
the regard of all who have come in

When asked, "why do you oppose Lind
now, having supported him two years

he is not a Democrat and has done
nothing for Democracy" What he
should have said is, because he fired
my son-in-law. Elmer Fl. Dearth, a Re-

commissioner and appointed a life
long Democrat in his place. Doran is
now working for Van SAINT in order
that Dcarth may get back the Job. but

Democrats to vote the Republican
