amist From Sulu Out Of the
House.

icy Of the administration In q charac-
teristic speech. "a man lie not o

posed to doing these things which
jeopardize the life OF the republic.
tan American 10 not o pessimist
because he 10 unwilling to see his
country adopt al a settled policy the
political principles of Alexander, Cas-
sar and Napoleon.
~ would not give the life Of one
healthy, honest, moral, patriotic, am.
bilious, courageous American white
boy In exchange for all the Filipinos
who now live or may live In the
