lnsllrEcnt Leader wears Allegiance

.Aguinaldo has taken the oath of allie
glance to the United States. The an
nounccmcnt was officially made by Secre-
tary of War Root. This act of Agui-
naldo's will greatly simplify matters and
will relieve the American government
from an embarrassing situation.
Ever since his capture by Gen. Fun
ston the disposition of the troublesome
insurgent was a puzzling question and
one for which the Washington authorities
had no solution. a punishment for the
leader was necessary which would not
make a martyr of him and at the same
time it was imperative that he be plac-
ed where he could do no further harm
and where there was no chance for him
to escape and again raise a rebellion.
By taking the oath Of allegiance Agui-
aaldo so binds himself that if he ever
again attempts to stir up discomfort
among the Filipinos he will make himself
liable to punishment by death, and there
will be no e%Xtenuating circumstances as
there were in the present case. The real
ization of this is expected to keep Agui-
aaldo in restraint. The Filipino leaders,
action is regarded as the elimination of
the insurrection.
