FROM THE PHILIPPINES.
An Interesting Letter Frem Lieutenant
T.. 4. PhIibrook

Lieut.. L. i. Philbrook, a welI-known
Portland young man, who is with the
46th volunteer infantry in the Philip
pines, in letter dated April 25 addressed
TO his mother and sister, writes as fol-
lows:
Everything is hustle here. We are
getting ready for the rainy season, haul
ing rations and building houses for the
men to live In. IL is an awful job to get
rations here for four hundred men for
six months. We have twelve wagons
Naic, which is IL mills from where we
re now located. We have not had any
fighting for quite long time. There
are lot of Ladrones about, but it is very
hard to catch them. A band came into
the town last Sunday night and when
they thought we We're all abed, they
proceeded to rob the natives houses.
We we re notified and gave chase, but
could not catch them as they flew away
through the woods and got away from
us.
1t is hard to tell what the insurgents
intend to do. They .are doing no fight
ing at present, but no one can tell when
they will start again. But we don't care
il they will wait until the rainy season
is over. 1t must be horrible place in
the rainy season, but we will soon know
all about 1t, as the rainy season com
mences about the first of May and lasts
until the first of October. about five
months.
Capt. Jerry Baker is well and of course
see him every day and how often do We
talk about Portland and all the folks at
home, and you can bet we wish we
were at home with our folks but l guess
we will have to stay here another year
before we get home. l like here quite
we'll. It is funny old place, tell you
have seen a lot of funny sights since
left home and expect to see many
more before l get back.
The letter concludes abruptly owing
to haste in desire to send 1t in "a mail
just then ready to start for Manila.

Doubtless the aggressions Of foreign
ers have had something to do with the
present outbreak in China. There Is
no question that China has got very scant
courtesy from the European powers, for
the past sixty years, and the feelings
and prejudices of the Celestials have
counted for very little when Europeans
wanted privileges in their country. Eng
land forced the opium traffic upon them
with bullets and bayonets, and Germany
within q very recent period has made
some slight affronts to her mis-
sionaries, the basis of very extensive de-
mands for territory. On our Pacific coast
peaceful Chinese laborers have been re
peatedly assaulted by mobs and many
of them killed, for no better reason than
they worked for lower wages than ma
tive laborers. Furthermore we have ex-
cluded the Chinese from this country by
extremely harsh legislation. Under ali
the circumstances 1T Is not strange that
there should be strong antipathy to for
eigners in the Flowery Kingdom. e. 81

tions the question Of q second place cuts
very little figure, and II has often been
settled IN the closing hours OF the oonven-
tlon when the members were getting ready
TO depart, and some had actually gone.
Frequently the settlement under
these conditions has turned out un-
fortunately, and men have been chosen
who would not have been selected had
there been full deliberation. Undoubt-
edly some Of tho extraordinary interest
that attaches to the second place on the
ticket this year is due to the fact that
there Is no contest for first place, but
some OF it, and we hope much Of IL, is
due 20 q. revival in the public mind of
a sense of its Importance. For a great
many years the Office has been treated
by nominating conventions Of both par
ties as II Il were Of little consequence.
A man fit 10 become President In case Of
emergency has not been sought for so
much as one who would help the ticket
in some doubtful state. We do not say
that no attention should be paid to the
latter consideration, but IL should be
subortiinated to the first. The chief pur-
pose for which the Office exists Is to pro-
vide substitute in case OF the death or
incapacity of the President. This being
so It is obvious that unless IL be filled by
"a man of Presidential size the chief pur-
pose of the office has been only partly &C.
complished. From the numerous can
didates that will be before this oonven-
tion 1t ought not TO be difficult to select
a man who would fill the Presidency
with honor II that should happen to fall
TO his lot. The fitness OF many of them
for the greater office admits of no doubt.
Some of them are men of not very wide
reputation and hence 1t Is impossible to
speak with much certainty about them.
Only very few of them are
known to be of so small calibre
as to deserve no consideration whatever.
Secretary Long is certainly the favorite
in this section of the country, and there
is no manner OF doubt as to his fitness.
If he came from New York instead OF
Massachusetts there would be little doubt
of his nomination. There may be good
strategical ground for preferring a man
equally fit who comes from doubtful
state, but there is none, so far as we
can see for preferring Dolliver, who
lives in state no more doubt IL than
Massachusetts and who has not given
one tenth the proof Of executive ability
that Secretary Long has.

The pestiferous Addicks crowd is on
hand at Philadelphia demanding and
threatening as usual. The proper way
to treat Addicks is to summarily dismiss
him and his claims. Most Of the trouble
that he has given the party would have
been avoided if he had been treated this
way years ago. He is a corrupt, selfish,
domineering rich man. He cares nothing
for the party except as means of his
own self aggrandizement. For years he
has been trying to buy his way into the
Senate, but, fortunately, he has not sue
ceeded. Such men as he are much more
dangerous to the party inside of it than

presidency and would not accept it. In
spite of this fact to undertake to force the
nomination upon him, rs 1t is an

A CHINESE EXPERIENCE.
what Pretty Little Girl Teld Psrt-
land Traveller.

Few people OF this city have ever
made visit to China, especially to that
section OF the empire which is now the
scene Of the great missionary troubles 4,
but among those who have been In the
empire is Gen. Francis Fessenden who
was visitor about ten years ago.
=" was only in China week." said
General Fessenden in conversation with a
reporter of the PRESS on Saturday af-
ternoon. when arrived there my stay
was cut short as I was anxious 10 hurry
on to India. Furthermore was not In
that part of the empire where the mis-
sionaries are being prosecuted. was in
Shanghai and Canton, the former being
about six hundred miles distant, while
Canton Is some ten or eleven hundred
miles away from Tien Tsin. Tien Tsln
Is city OF about half million OF popula-
ton. The name is quite generally spelled
in China as Tientsin which means ford
OF heaven When l was there efforts
were being made to run railroad from
Tien Tsin 10 Peking, a distance of some
seventy five miles. Since then the rail
road has been destroyed by the revolu-
tionists.
Everything was all right in China
when was visiting that country. At
least there were no troubles over the con-
dition Of the people. I know nothing
about the Boxers with the exception Of
what read in the newspapers. China
is honeycombsd with secret societies and
some of these societies ara very powerful.
But the mass Of the Chinese are very
hard working, industrious people and
have very many good qualities. They
are, however, brought up to believe all
sort Of evil things against the Christians.
remember that one day i saw very
pretty little Chinese girl who came up to
me and commenced TO talk with me. She
was bright and laughed and chatted for
some minutes. After she had gone my
interpreter asked me IL / knew what she
had been saying. / told him that / did
not and then he told me that all of the

CURRENT COMMENT.
MIR. WEBB AND THE sPEAKERSHIP


(HOfIlanQ AuNefb1Ser.)
The candidacy of Mr.. Richard Webb
of this city for speaker of the next legis-
lature is announced. In view of his high
standing in the community, remember
ing his good work in the last legislature
and believing him Iqualified in an emf
nent degree for this important office, the
Advertiser will take pleasure In support
ing him. Matters of great Importance are
TO demanded the attention at Augusta
next winter. Tax reform Is foremost
among them. An effort Is TO be made to
revise the system and readjust the bur-
den so as to make 1t bear more equally.
The complaint Is no doubt just one
that, under present methouds of yalua-
tion and assessment, sofne interests and
classes escape their fair share, while
others which cannot escape have more
than their share thrust upon them. The
question is one of the most important
that has come before eht legislature in a
long time, and its correct solution will
depend first Of course on the general
character and disposition of the legisla-
ture-that is to say, on the sort of men
who are elected-and second in no slight
degree on the manner in which the legis-
lature is organized. With man like
Mr.. Webb to appoint the committees and
preside over the deliberations of the
House 1t is confidently believed that the
public interests would be safe.

The Christian Scientists have just
been stirred up again over state
ments which originated with a CORE
spondent of the Portsmouth Times, that
Mrs, Eddy, the high priestess of theil
faith, was afflicted with creeping paraly-
sis, and that another woman was rugged
up to impersonate her and palmed off up
on visitors as the real article. They de
nounce these stories as lies and produce
several persons who say they have con-
versed with Mrs. Eddy within a short time
and that she is in excellent health. One
shudders to think what tremendous com.
motionthere will be in the world when
some day it is announced that Mrs.
Eddy is dead. What chorus of "It's a

Happily the story of the b2rning of the
legations in Pekin and the killing of the
German minister turned out a pure
to give rise to grave apprehension that
something of the kind may take place
in the future. 1t is TO be feared that the
forces of the powers while large enough to
irritate the insurgents may be too small
to overawe them and that a collision
between them may precipitate general
riot in the city. We're it not for the
jealousy and suspicion of one another's
motives that Russia and Japan entertain
it would be possible to throw into the
disturbed region, within short time,
troops enough to quickly restore ORDER
but neither wants the other to employ
IA large force and the result Is that neither
does anything. 1t is useless to under
take to predict how this trouble viii
work itself out. The main thing at the
present time is to protect the lives of
foreigners who are in the country and
whose presence is supposed to have given
rise in part to the uprising. This our
government is doing to the best Of Its
ability, and at the same time avoiding
so far as possible any entangling alliances
that may embaITass us in the future.
If the present troubles should result in
the breaking up of the empire we might
have to take hand In the settlement
for the protection Of our own, CONNER
cial interests, but it would be bad policy
for us to take any action likely to precipi-
tate snch a crisis.
