ANOTHER BRITISH REVERSE.
Johnson, Military Critic of American
Soldering, Is in Silence.

Johnson was theoretically a good
deal more of a military strategist thar
his size might lead You to expect, and
he backed up his statements with ex-
periences which he had had as a lieu

johnson has represented a large Eng
lish manufacturing company in this
city for the last five years, and he simp-

he was a companionable fellow and an
entertaining talker.

by Jove, sir" is his usual conclusion
to complaints against the American
ways of doing or not doing things.
No one who followed the Spanish
American war was more critical than
johnson, and the fall Of Santiago vas
a great blow to his theoretical cam
paign. From the landing of the first
American troops in Cuba johnson had
foreseen disaster.
"of course, old man. he said to
Smith Of Vermont. who shared his Of

johnson said "milit'ry) land you will

shafter's whole theory is plainly
wrong"
Smith did not know anything about
the theory Of war and waited and
watched, confident that Americn SOL
diers were the best in the world. When
the first letters from kickers came back
from the front complaining that trans
ports were crowded and that they had
no canned tomatoes, johnson smiled
g%leefully. Z

The days that followed were moi

GOVERNMENT FOR PHILIPPINES.
Practically That Authorized by Thomas
Jefferson for Louisiana.

Chicago, Feb. 2S.-President Schur-
a of Cornell university and former
head of the Philippine commission, de-
llvered an address before the student
body at Armour institute today, in
which he forecasted the report and rec
concentrations of the commission. soon
to be published at Washington. Pres
ident Schurmann said that he had rec
commended to the president a govern
ment and constitution for the Philip
pines identically the same as that
framed by educated Filipinos. which is
practically the government policy out
lined by Thomas Jefferson for the gov
eminent of the vast territory acquired
by the Louisiana purchase. Mr.. Schur-
mann said further he was happy to
state that President Mckinley had &C
cepted the recommendations and was
sending IL a second commission to
put this government in operation.

how popular its winning issue may be,

power, free trade laws will be passed,
passed, too, before they even attempt

Bins First Conclusions

BINS First Conclusions
The more the public land question is
discussed, the consensus of opinion
seems to favor the policy advocated by
the Budget from the first. The main
objection made by the gentlemen who
are opposing further cession to the
state has been that it would result in
the monopoly of the range by a few
wealthy outfits to the exclusion of the
little fellows: and yet the history of
the past and the records of the state
land board absolutely disprove this as
sertion. Under Governor Osborne's
somewhat famous administration sew
eral large leases were granted; but that
of Governor w. A. Richards and our
present chief executive has been devoid
of favoritism, and in no case have ap-
plications for large leases beer granted.
Ex-senator Carey attempted to gobble
up twelve miles of the Platte valley
west OF Glenrock-one of the most not
able attempts in this direction in the
history of the state land board was
pfOLuplly tulheu uOWu ny t0e UTSl-
named executive, and numerous like
demands have been refused by that and
the present administration. Under
their wise and just management, state
lands have been divided vi among the
numerous applicants in small tracts
aggregating not to exceed $40 acres to
each. OF course, If the people of the
state were to again install as governor
some democrat Of the Osborne stripe,
the dire results of further cession
predicted by these alarmists would
probably be realized, but equal
ly. Of course, there is no likelihood of
any such calamity. The real sentiment
OF the great mass of the people direct
ly interested in this matter is well ex-
pressed in the following extract from

BLAME THE MISSIONARIES.

1t now appears to be solid fact
that Robert Wilcox has carried the
country's vote FOR Delegate to Con-
.gress. 1t was not the personality
OF the man that won the fight. II
was the protest OF the Hawaiian
race against the dominance OF the
family compact oliRsrchy and the
betrayal OF their independence and
autonomy without their consent.
Had they who used Mr.. Dole as
com PLEASANT tool in 1898 list ened to
conservative advice aud asked the
Hawaiian people to vote in plebis-
cite for or agaiust annexation much
wiser had they been. At that time
the prejudice against the moDarch
was so strong that the revolutions
lists would have carried the county
and peace would have feigned. Alas
for them and the country they pre-
ferred to act brutally, aud now the
Hawaiians have risen in their might
aud protested through the ballot
box in 4 very effectual manner. We
think is was. grave error on the
part Of the Hawaiians not TO have
nominated j. o. Carter 40 their
banner carrier instead OF Wilcox, for.
although the principle OF protest
has been won the result may be dis7.
strousat o our best interests. {'Thsfa
is one hope aud that iS with high
Office a. feeling oi conservative re-
sponsibility ensues and perhaps
Wilcox, il ever seated, will listen oc-
oasionally to Mr.. Haywood aud
other staunoh friends OF Hawaii, We
