SAYS HE IS SINCERE
Aguinaldo Emphasis the Statement
Made in his Manifesto and Says
every Word came from his heart

Manila, April PA representative
of the Associated Press visited Emilio
Aguinaldo this afternoon at56 Solano
street, where he was removed from
Malacanan and found him in large
room upstairs, furnished with table,
a typewriting machine, three settees
and twenty chairs. His wife, who was
entertaining number of Filipino wo.
men friends, sat at one end of the
room, while Aguinaldo, smoking a
cigar and chatting with Benito
Legardo, occupied the opposite
corner.
Others present were Lieutenant
Colonel John S. Mallory, of the For
ty-frst volunteer infantry, who has
charge of Aguinaldo; Lieutenant Gill
bert A. Youngberg, of the Third artil-
lery. and Mr.. Fisher, General Mac
Arthur's private secretary.
Aguinaldo, whose bearing was
courteous and dignified, was dressed
in white, looked we'll and altogether
made an excellent impression. Legar-
do, who but recently returned from
the United States, was telling him
about the trip; and he seemed intense
ly interested, smiling frequently and
asking numerous questions. He in
quired particularly as to what Presi-
dent Mckinley said, and seemed
anxious to know what was thought of
him in the United States.
He was rather reluctant to talk for
publication and considered every
question carefully before answering.
He said he was doing all he could to
assist in the pacification of the Philip
pines and expressed himself as much
surprised at what the Americans had
accomplished. When he was first cap
tured, he went on to say, he was
greatly astonished to find that al ma
iority of the Filipinos entertained the
opinion that American nsovereigntyw was
preferable to independence, but now
he was inclined to believe that way
himself. He explained that since the
dissolution of the insurgent congress
and the declaration of guerilla war
fare, the chiefs had operated to all
intents and purposes independently.
They recognized him as commander
in-chief, sending him reports oc'
casionally, and heissued some ORDERS

crease the amount ofthe annual school
fund which is distributed to the vari-
Gus counties.
"Some of the school Glands which
come under the foregoing are located
in the western part of the State and
the county clerk report that it is
adapted only to grazing. However,
the western part of thesl State is now
being largely devoted to the cattle
industry, the value of these lands will
not be lessened because they are not
tillable
''In some of the counties of the mid
die district of the State there is found
to be considerable land which is
adapted to either grazing or to farm
ing as the circumstances of the owner
ship might demand"
The fact that n small number of
counties have made reports exhibiting
more than 10000 acres of land, is ac-
cepted as an indication that the acre
age in the State is very large. Since
it has become generally known that
the auditor is making this sort of an
investigation, the departments mail
has been doubled in volume owing to
the inquiries that are being made.
These inquiries come not alone from
Kansas, but from the adjoining states
and from the more populous and larg-
er states Of the East.
The reports received from the coun-
ties are being tabulated as rapidly as
possible and the information thus OBJ
tanned will be issued in pamphlet form
which will be sent out from the Office
of the auditor upon application.

WANT INDEPENDENCE
Cuban Commissioners Are On the Way
to Washington.

Jacksonville, Fla, April 24.-The
Cuban constitutional committee, which
arrived here last night, left today for
Washington. General Rafael Portu-
ondo, one of the committee, defined
Cuba's position as follows:
''Ninety-nine per cent of the Cuban
people desire absolute independence.
1t is their wish that military occupa-
tion by the United States come to an
end at once.
"lt may be said that a small ele-
ment of the Spaniards, from a purely
commercial motive, favor annexation,
but the wish for independence is felt
by many Cubans and Spaniards alike.
Those Spaniards who favor annexa-
tion are not impelled by any love for
the United States. They hate Ameri-
cans, but they seem to wish some sort
of guaranty as to their property and
business interests.
"Peace with the Americans without
the independence of Cuba is impos-
sible-I mean moral peace.
II do not mean to say that in the
event independence is not granted war
or revolution would follow, but there
would be no sympathy or friendliness
between the peoples"

THREATENS THE WHEAT
Oklahoma Crops Liable to be Com
pletely Ruined

Guthrie, Ok, April 23.-The danger
to the Oklahoma wheat crop from the
green louise, that has appeared in in
describable numbers, is alarming.
The louse has been steadily trailing
northward for about two weeks and
has reached the Kansas line. In some
of the large fields of Southern Kay
county the louise was not observed un-
til three days ago. In the rich wheat
district surrounding Ell Reno the louse
has been at work for several weeks.
Many fields have been practically des-
troyed. Henry Lassen, an FL Reno
miller said today that generally the
fields were in condition to give hope
full .outlook, but unless there was IL
change for the better in three or four
days the crop would be seriously dam.
aged. G. H. Stevens, representing the
Purcell Mill and Elevator company,
has been travelling in Oklahoma for
more than week. examining fields.
His report is discouraging, but he
said it was too early to say positively
that the crop would be ruined The
only thing that can save it, however,
would be the disappearing of the
louise. In the neighborhood of
Cashion, Kingfsher county, the .louse
is disappearing, but the small black
fly into which the louse develops, may
remain. There are many fields in
iured only in spots, where the louise
seems to have settled temporarily in
its northward migration. y week ago
the louise was discovered in field near
Guthrie, in which the wheat was knee
high. Today the field is practically
ruined and in spots burns almost as
easily as dry pasture.
In an immense field in the strip
country the louise was not seen until
four days ago. There are now dead
spots of many acres in this field. Late
hard wheat is scarcely molested by the
louse, early soft wheat being its
favorite food. The louse does not
feed upon weeds. In some strip fields
the Hessian fly and chinch bugs have
appeard with the louse. Cold weather
seemingly had no injurious effect upon
the louise.
The louise has not been identified in
name. Old wheat growers say that
this is the first time they ever saw it.
The louise is green in color and
resembles the louse that infests rose
plants.
