THE WAR TAX.
De n,ocrDtic Members of the House
Ways and Means Committee Not
Expected to Oppose Reductions.

Washington, Nov. 23.-The repub-
lican members of the ways and means
committee Thursday decided to pre-
sent the bill for the reduction of the
revenue to the full committee on Sat-
urday, December /, at ten o'clock.
The bill, however, probably will be
prepared some time before that.
Commissioner Wilson, of the internal
revenue bureau, was before the COM
mittee for some time Thursday, Civ
ing information concerning the effect
of the reduction of certain schedules
and also as to the amount of revenue
raised by portions of the present law
which it is proposed to reduce.
The committee has agreed on a
number of schedules to be reduced
while on others there is n disagree
ment. 1t is probable that a subcom-
mittee soon will be appointed to make
final draft of the measure.
The committee has made such salts
factory progress with the bill that only
details now remain to be considered.
The members of the committee after
adjournment Thursday afternoon said
that they believed there would be no
difficulty when the bill was present
ed in full committee or in the house,
either among democrats or republic
ans. Although they have not consult
ed the democratic members, it is I'M
derstood from information some of the
republican members have that the DEM
ocrats do not intend to make any fac
tfous opposition to the measure.

MILITARY AFFAIRS.
Hoids . Conference with Presi-
dent Mckinley.

Washington, Nov. "a. = Chairman
Hull, of the House committee ON mill
itary affairs, called a meeting OF the
hopes that quorum will be pres
emit and that the committee can go
to work Immediately upon the out
lines OF a new army bill. Mr.. Hull was
in conference with the president and
with officials of the war department
upon the character of legislation de-
sired by the administration. He said
the president will communicate to
congress very fully his recommends
tlons about the army, and he did not
assume to speak the presidents mind
In advance. He thought, however,
that the administration would not
be content with any makeshift legis-
lation, no proposition to continue the
present law for two years more. His
impression was that the president
wanted authority to raise a regular
army sufficient for the needs of the
country. 100000 men. IL necessary, the
number to be reduced when there was
no longer need for them.
Mr.. Hull said the Taft~commission
had reported that $4,000 Filipinos
could be enlisted Immediately in the
army for the Philippines, and that
they would make good soldiers I'M
der American officers. There was no
fear of a repetition of Great Brit
aims experience with the Sepoys, for
the Filipinos, Mr.. Hull said, have no
national feeling, like the natives of
India. Moreover, added Mr.. Hull, the
experiment of enlisting native troops
has proven successful, and there are
no more loyal nor efficient soldiers
than the natives enlisted in the Brit
ish army in India.

THE PRESIDENT.
His Administration Receives the En-
dorsemcnt Of an Emphatic
MutOrity..

by one of the most emphatic votes
ever polled, this country declared itsin-.
tention TO go on as it has been going.
1t holds fast to the blessings of pros,
perity. 1t continues its way along the
path of progress. IT. again repudiates-
the regulators. 1t keeps the flag
aloft.
No process of reasoning can make OF,
this magnificent victory anything else
than an endorsement and approval OF
the administration of President Nc
Kinley.
Wherever the republican pNuraities-
are less than they were four years
ago. wherever Organism shows APP
parent gains, the explanation is OBJ
vious. Democrats have returned by
thousands to their former political al
legiance; not because they hoped by
their votes to elect Bryan, but because
they believed his defeat so certain that
they might safely take advantage of
the occasion to resume regular rela-
tons with the party to which they have
always belonged.
William Mckinley is the man who
made possible the election of a re-
publican president.
May his second term be as glorious, as
productive, and as beneficent as has
been his first!---N. Y. Sun.

New York. Nov. 2.-R. q. Dun & Co.'S

sonable promptness business Is recovering

WOUNDED OR DEAD.
Two Reports Are Received Concerns
Ing AguinnIdo, the Famous
Filipino Leader.

New York, Nov. 24.-United States
Consul Wildman, says a World dis
patch from Hong Kong, has informa-
ton that the Filipino junta at q
meeting held November Is decided to
brave the chances of deportation
rather than quit Hong-Kong.
Recent correspondence between the
junta and the insurrectionists proves
that Agninaldo is still alive, but he is
said to be suffering from gunshot
wound in his stomach.
Washington, Nov. 24.-The latest
mail from Manila received at the war
department brings an interesting
budget of news from the islands,
some of which heretofore has been
touched on in press dispatches. The
Manila papers of October 10 devote
considerable space to renewal OF
the report concerning Aguinaldo's
death in northern Luzon. They say
that the circumstantial character of
this report, together with the fact
that Gen. Trias recently has been
signing himself Commander in chief
of the insurgent forces" lends strong
color to the belief that Aguinaldo
may be dead. The latest account in
this line comes from Nueva Ecija, in
northern Luzon, where in an outpost
skirmish Aguinaldo's horse was killed
and his saddlebags, with number OF
personal papers, were captured. 1t
seems that non-commissioned Off
Ger at this place had gained the con-
fdence of native woman, Maria
Ramirez, wife of general on Agui-
naldo's staff. and had secured consid-
cradle information as to the move
ments of the insurgents, much OF
which had proved to be correct. The
woman told him that in the fight at
Nueva Ecija Aguinaldo was shot from
his horse and severely wounded. He
was carried by his followers into the
jungle and subsequently was report
ed to be i'll with fever. His body aft
erward was carried down the river on
raft, slung in hammock and COM
pletely covered with palm leaves, but
the natives who saw the passage Of
the raft were uncertain whether he
was dead or alive.
This, together with the claims Of
Trias and others Of the insurgent
generals to the chief command of the
army, leads the local Manila papers
to give considerable credencc to the
story.

THE WINNING ARGUMENT.
Prosperity of the People Outweighed
the Appeal to Class
Hatred.

It is in order to congratulate Mr..
Bryan on the fact that he knows what
hit him. Bryan says: "The prosper
fly argument was probably the most
potent argument used by the republic
ans" That's right. 1t was. The full
dinner pail did it. The pay envelope
outweighed the soup ticket. The dol
lar counted for more than the half
dollar. The dollar was before the
man, because the man was passing Ii
out to purchase those things which
himself and family.
Prosperity was not only the most
effective argument. 1t was also .
legitimate argument. Destitution 10
not n virtue. 1t is decidedly un-
pleasant defect. Prosperity is the aim
of society, the purpose of labor. II
always has been and always will be
the most potent argument. No phil
osopher has ever pictured heaven Of
discomfort or adversely.
The prosperity argument was the
most effective i'm the campaign. And
II brought the verdict for the repub-
Iicun party, because the logic Of
events and the mathematics of history
traced the effect of prosperity to its
cause in the principles and policies Of
the republican party.
Bryan himself never knew such
prosperity as followed the election Of
1896. The people hope that the cleo
ton Of 1900 will be followed by con-
tinuance and renewal Of that pros
