THE REAL AGUINALDo.
Dewey's Navigating officers Sums
UP His Character.

Lieutenant Commander Calkns in Ainslee's
Emilio Aguinaldo is a Tagalo Of the
Tagalos, a municipal captain and the
son of municipal captain. He was
born in Cavite Viejo, and became the
chief magistrate of that town before
reaching the age of twenty-seven. A
few months later he tried to make his
birthplace the capital of an Oriental
republic. Before the end of 1896 he had
beaten the forces of Captain General
Blanco in two brisk engagements, and
snatched the reins of authority from
the feeble hands of the Katipunan
cabinet, His financial affairs have also
place in history. Upon his marriage
in 1896 he borrowed a few hundreds of
dollars to provide a home. In 1897 the
Spanish authorities, after Offering thou.
sands to get him killed or captured,
promised millions to induce him to be-
come an exile. Under some pressure
from defeat and privation, a treaty was
accepted, and the leaders sent to Hong
Kong in January, 1898 The English
courts limited Aguinaldo's share of the
indemnity to less than three per cent,
OF 100000 in Mexican silver. But the
fund was kept intact, and employed
lsh duplicity and Admiral Dewey's vic
tory justified the revival of the insur-
reCtion
From his birth in 1869 to his assump-
tlon OF authority in 1896, Aguinaldo's
career was commonplace. He did nor
go abroad for education or adventures
Ihe photograph of Chinese sailor has

served under the dragon flag. In re-
ailty, he went to college in Manila, but
lailed to win decree from this clerical
masters-probably because he did not
attaln perfect command of the Span
lsh language. For a few years he had
obscure employment near home. 1t is
sdld that he was schoolmaster. a
clerk IN a store, or writer at the
naval arsenal. His public life began
when the twelve electors chose him TO
succeed his father in the onerous and
Improbable cares of a municipal cap

has never lacked funds. Taxes have

this agent OF destiny remain beyond
our reach. He has never been con-
victed of corruption or cruelty. His
treatment of Spanish prisoners was
humane and even generous compared
with that which Spain has given her
rebels in any civil contest Of the nine
teenth century. In July, 1898, many
prisoners captured by the American
forces were placed in custody. But

of $4,000 and an allowance of s25OOO
for representation, that is, for display,
during each fiscal year,
yet there is no evidence that his
personal tastes are extravagant, or
that he has ever INDUCED in the van
ity of exclusiveness. His political
career under the titles of generalissi-
mo, dictator and president shows
readiness to assume responsibility and
a tendency to assert his own will. His
first proclamation, dated October 81.
1896, summoned his people to achieve
independenca under a constitution like

that of the United States, and the
strictest principles of liberty, equality

Furthermore, it can be calculated
to a certainty


that with many thousands of new stockholders
exerting their personal influence toward the suc-
cess and welfare of the business larger patronage
and correspondingly greater earnings for the
new Company will be assured It is from the
increased benefits and material advan ages which
these changed conditions are expected to bring
about, that the present owners feel confident of
better pro rata remuneration on the stock which
they RETAIN and in a measure justiheS them IN
parting with any portion of their interests in an
established and exceptionally profitable business.

To carry out the plan of
PrOfit-Sharing

it is proposed by the present owners, who are
the owners of all the stock of the new Company,
to offer to the public through the undersigned,
200, 900 shares fully paid and non-assessable)
of the per cent. cumulative Preferred Stock at
par, upon which the full per cent. dividend
must always be paid before the Common Stock
receives any dividend whatever, the Preferred
Stock also having prior right to all the assets
of the Company.
In order to give double assurance to the
general public, whom it is desired to interest as
Stockholders Gnstead of Speculators) and who
may not be fully conversant with such invest
ments, the money required to pay dividends
on said 200, 900 shares has been set aside and
will remain on deposit with the Central Trust
Company of New York, and the Illinois Trust
and Savings Bank of Chicago, respectively, to
secure the dividends of 6 per cent. per annum.
payable per cent. semi-annually, for period
of five years, e., until July Ist, 1905, on all
such Preferred Stock as may be allotted in their
respective territories, and each Certificate of
Stock so allotted will have an endorsement by
said Trust Companies, respectively, to that
effect. We thereby offer, we believe, not only
an absolutely safe 6 per cent investment, but
one which will without question yield consider
ably more.

WILLIAM DILLON OTTER.

The South African war is of especi-
al import to Canadian Americans,
Canada being represented in the the
conflict by large number of very
efficient troops under command of
Colonel William Dillon Otter. These
troops have been made very hatter-
ing record in the campaign which
ended in the surrender of Gen.
Cronje. Col. Otter is a soldier who
made his fighting record years ago.
He was born at Clinton. Ontario. in
1843, and his military service began
at Toronto in 1861. In 1864 he was
a lieutenant of the Queens Rifles;
then he became adjutant of the
Queens Own, serving as such against
the Fenians in 1866, and taking part
in the engagement at Ridgeway. he
was made major in 1869, the brevet
rank of lieutenant-colonel being
given him in 1874. He had command
of battalion during the pilgrimage
riots in Toronto and the Grand
Trunk railway riots at Belleville, and
the center of the Battleford column
in the Riel rebellion in 1884. He
has been an Indian fighter as we'll as
military staff officer; He is promi-
nent Mason and is very popular.

IT IS urged in some quarters that
the passage of the Puerto Rlcan
relief bill should put a quietus on
any further Puerto Rican agitation
for the present. Such a course will
be the greatest folly, for if the Re-
publican party does not definitely
repudiate the idea of ever levying a
tariff on Puerto Rican products, the
floating independent vote of this dis
trict and of this state will be found
on the other side of the fence al
though in late years it has been
largely with the Republican party.
