Washington, March 30.-A cable
gram received at the war department
from o. sral Macarthur tells in sue
cinct ;, ysthe history of Aguinaldo's
capture, gives all credit for the bril-
liant exploit to General Funston,
whose reward it suggests should be
that of q brigadier general in the reg

expression of confidence in the speedy
cessation of hostilities throughout the
Philippine archipelago as result of

reference to the disposition to be
made Of Aguinaldo the dispatch covers

Harrisburg, April Reconsideration
Of reports from the committees on ap-
portionment, the passage of the Cuff
fey ballot reform bill through the SEN
ate and a further inquiry into the va
rious requests for appropriations will
be among the other things which will
command the attention of members of
the legislature this week.
LEGISLATORS WORKING HARD.
Notwithstanding the fact that three
sessions a day are now being held by
the house Of representatives, there is
still a vast amount of business to be
transacted before a final adjournment
can be reached.
There is a serious contention be-
tween conflicting interests, political
and personal, in the framing of appor-
tionment measures. While the con-
gressional apportionment bill has pass
ed the senate and has been reported
with amendments to the house. there
will have to be conference committees
appointed before this matter can be
settled. 1t is unlikely that the senate
will be able to come to an early agree
ment on a senatorial apportionment
bill, and the house will have its own
troubles when it comes to redistricting
the assembly districts. The judicial
apportionment will be an easier prob
lem to solve.
Senator Focht, of Union, has charge
OF the ballot reform bill, the measure
introduced at the instance of Col. Cuff
fey, the Democratic leader, and amend
ed so as to provide for the party circle
and to permit voters who so desire to
have assistance in the preparation of
their ballots. He says this bill will
pass the senate probably this week.
The house has adopted a very liberal
course up to date on this issue. 1t
has passed without opposition on sec
ond reading all of the ballot and pri-
mary election reform bills reported
from committee. The amended Guffey
bill will without doubt be supported by
the Republican leaders.
MUST HAVE PARTY CIRCLE.
The necessity for retaining the party
circle at the top of the ballot is becom-
ing apparent to many who were at
first inclined to be Indifferent on this
subject.
Party organization has arisen in
this country by natural process of
constitutional development" says the
Pittsburg Commercial Gazette, "and
we owe TO it the establishment Of pop
ular rule. But anything in the nature
OF cohesion or articulation among the

A POINTER FOR UNPAID TEACHERS.

While the political offceholders in Chicago and
the favored contractors and all kinds Of boodlers were
getting their money the school teachers were told
some time since that there no funds available
for paying their salaries and they would therefore,
have to wait
But the Chicago school teacher appears to know
thing or two outside the school room The teachers
found after an examination that fully $685. 900 900
worth of property was escaping taxation It was not
known whether the assessors Indifferent incom.
petent or had been bought OFF A committee OF tho
teachers, however, waited the assessors pointed
out the property and demanded that it be taxed so
that the city's would be sufficient to paw
them their salaries The assessors refused The mat.
ter was taken to the State board of equalization whore
another rebuff was met. Then the courts were re-
sorted to, and only the other day the teachers won
the suit and orders issued the local assessors
to take note OF this property the cys assets
BY this contest $5,000,O00 have been added to the
ctys revenue and it is safe assume that the poli
ticars, will risk fights of this kind with
the teachers but will see that their salaries are
promptly paid
Nearly every other city in this country is following
Chcago's example of overlooking millions of dollars
worth OF taxable property while complaining of scar
city of revenues II the unpaid employees of these ml
inequalities smart and as plucky and persistent
as the Chicago school teachers. they might find way
: TO get their money promptly.
