The New York Evening Post is rot

tional interest. especially when engaged
in the consideration Of such su3te is
with reference to the conduct Of the pres

today, as indeed it has stood from the
outset, the ablest opponent of the admin

not even the least scrupulous of the ad-
herents of the administrators has yet
been heard imputing to it other than pa
triotic motives in its und waiting hos

Perhaps no more important contr bu-

been made than that which has appear

view of the situation on the islands. The
communication was remai!ed TO the paper

the interference Of the censor.
1t would be hard to set forth with any

A WRONG CoiysINMATED.

The second act in the comedy drama Of

is determined that those who are being
held on criminal charges within this
county pending the action of the courts

The history Of events leading to this
conclusion forms an entertaining chap
ter in local political history In the face
of the established fact that the present
jail building could for few thousand
dollars be put in condition for use for
county jail was forced to a conclusion
by public body just on the eve of the
termination of the terms of it's mem
bers. That body has since passed out
of existence and this action is made
necessary as one of the Iegacies left to
the present board of county commission
ers by its predecessors in office.
When the necessity of an additional
puDHc Dulu1nS was conceded by those
who desired to save the taxpayers the
necessary expense until at least such
time as the community was better able
to respond financially, the project of the
construction of a new municipal building
was urged, which would offer facilities
for housing the municipal court and the
central city police station. That pro-
ject originated from the same source as
the new Jail project. 1t was discussed
and apparently agreed to. But the pro-
posa1 proved to be little more than a
blind; and public sentiment having been
successfully manipulated SO as to admit
the ACCESSIBILITY of such municipal
building, the project was dropped and
the jail scheme was urged with even
more than the original persistence The
public was assured by the present con-
tractor for the construction of the new
Jail that the cost of putting the old
building In a state of repair would be
virtually so high as to render the pro-

anything to avenge his death.
The truth seems to be-and it will soon
pass beyond successful denial-that the
entire population of the islands are
in a state of either open or concealed hos
tiltty to Americans and their rule; While
the American authorities are applying
remedy which in its nature is neither
wholly civil nor military, and for which
the natives entertain no more respectful
feeling than one Of contempt 1t is no
wonder that American army officers
should, as the correspondent of the
Evening Post points out, demand that
the only policy which can hope to be
effective with the natives shall be pur-
sued-the policy of force and blood fol-
lowed out to its legitimate conclusion;
or else that terms be entered into which
will dispense wholly with force and place
reliance wholly on peaceful methods
The history of all efforts at foreign
conquest, from the days of ancient Rome
to those of modern Britain, shows plain
~ that there are only two ways in which
to placate an entire people who are in
rebellion and bring them to the accept
ance Of outside control. One is to effec
tually cove and subdue them by fire and
sword and the other to grant them as
close an approach as possible to whatever
civil rights they regard themselves as en-
titled to. Either of these two courses we
must pursue The shilly-shally policy of
peace commissions where there is no
peace or likelihood of peace, alternated
by the pursuit of force, has brought us
just TO where we were when we started
out, as the self-chosen instruments of
the Almighty. to bring the blessings Of
civilization to the Philippines.

shall make their will known that some
other, more rational and more effective
course shall be pursued in the Philip
pines than that which has been main

dous cost and with the minimum of good
results in every direction

EXIT THE LnHNsoNs.

1t is to be hoped that the people Of
this city and county have heard the last
of the Johnson family in connection with
the conduct of their public affairs The
decision of Judge Lewis seems on its
face to be so entirely in accord with
common sense and right as to occasion
wonder how that team scheme of the
Johrsons should have been allowed for
so long to disturb the peace of the COM
munity. Session after session the Re
publican brethren of the board of county
commissioners gave the sanction of their
high reform authority to the payment Of
that bill, it being evidently the deter
minadon to have the county contribute
to the support Of even the animal de-
partment of the johnson household.
Had Mayor kiefer had the courage of
his convictions in all the difficulties
which beset him during his administra-
ton which he showed in dealing with
this remarkable claim he would have
entitled himself in the greatest measure
to the public approval. Indeed, were it
not for the refusal of Mayor Smith to
act in opposition to the position taken by
Mayor Kiefer, that unjust bill would have
been paid, Notwithstanding its palpable
