Recent dispatches from Manila
tell of sensational developments in
the commissary department.. 1t
appears that army officers have en-
tered into a conspiracy with num-
Der of Manila dealers to steal large
quantities of bacon, -four and other
merchandise from the government.
Some days ago a newspaperman
was arrested at Manila and sent to
the United States as a prisoner be-
cause he had made certain allega-
tions of crookedness against an
army officer. The rasca'ly devel-
opments, coming on the heels Of
the newspaperman's deportation,
shows that government representa-
tlves at Manila do not care to have
their doings aired in the public
prints. 1t is an easy matter to ex-
port a few newspapermen and
thereby silence unfriendly criticisms
of army officers who a,e inclined to
speculate with Uncle Sans prop
erty. A free press is not wanted in
the Philippines just now. The
great work of "benevo1ent assimi-
lation" can be carried on with more
ease without the officious lntermed-
ding of impudent newspapers.

In the midst of all this interna-

to our admiration even though his
domestic tastes should fail to meet
with our appreciation. We refer to
that eminent polygamist, the polite
and diplomatic Sultan of SuIu, who
has given evidence of a wonderful
faculty to 'sstand in" with the
powers that be. We are told that
a~few weeks ago Judge Taft and
other members of the commission
called upon and assured his high
ness that he would not be disturbed
in the full enjoyment of his royal
prerogatives and his numerous
wives. With the regal dignity char.
acteristic of the muchly married
ruler of Sulu, the friendly Offices of
Uncle Sans representatives were
received with reciprocal expressions

Even the most optimistic fails to

dications of Democratic harmony.
Mr.. Bryan IS finding fault with Gov.

dent Cleveland continues to talk
about his old land marks; Mr.. Bryan
is fighting the Democratic nominee
for Mayor of St. Louis; Algeld is
Carter Harrison who was
nominated for mayor By the Dem
ocrats of Chicago, and every day
some new evidence of Democratic
dlsaffection IS brought out. Surely
it the Democrats intend to win in
