SO FAR the three years war in the
Philippines, by an average of nearly 1OO,-
coo men on our side has not resulted in
so much as two-thirds of as many casual
lies as the army Of $1,000 men suffered in
two days fighting at Shiloh. The entire
loss in the Philippines has been 1,21G
deaths by wounds and accidents, and
2,33T deaths from disease. At Shiloh we
lost 1.I3J actually shot dead on the field,
and 1852 wounded. If we add the NOR
tally wounded, the death roll would be
double that in the Philippines. 1she sur
prise is the smallness Of the number OF
deaths by disease in the Philippines. Ger
family, many more men died in the hospi-
falls between Pittsburg Landing and
Corinth, from April /, 1862, to June 30
than have died in two years in the Philip
pines. A very large part of the credit for
this is due to the immense advance in the
science of camp sanitation.

THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE has steadily
Insisted that the world was on the point
of about-facing, and looking westward
across the Pacific, toward China and Hin
dostan, instead of eastward. The North
era Pacific Railroad is taking time by the
forelock in preparing for this. 1t has now
under contract, to be finished this year,
four steamers of 2S,0O0 tons each. or twice
as big as any vessel that now comes into
New York harbor. The road is also build
ing enormous steel freight cars, but it will
take miles of the biggest of these to
completely load one of the great ships
They will reduce the cost of Pacific
freights about one-half.

SENIOR Cailles will now occupy the cen-

he goes down before well-aimed shot, or
the vollcy of a fring-party. He is the bad
man from Bitter Greek of the archipelago,
and has gathered around him about all
the really desperate ladrones and thieves
in the island. He and his following have
been hagrantly guilty of every crime in
the calendar, and can expect no mercy.
They are now the only really formidable

PERRY HEATH is year or two too pre-
vious, if nothing else, in lanching Senator
Hanna's boom. A great many startling
changes are certain to take place in the
next twO or three years, and today no man
can predict what kind of a President the
people will desire in 1904. 1t may be that
it will be solid business man and or
ganizer. like Senator Hanna, or it may be
that the times viii demand a strong-wiIled
Executive, like Grant or Jackson. Or,
still again, it may be some bold thinker,
who has evolved strong internal or
foreign policy that we may wish carried
out. All these varieties of men are needed
in turn, and we cannot now foresee which
ones turn shall come.

45,343 get $50 week-or less.
OF the total of 993 ,529 on the roll, 551,-

annual value of the pensions under this

in spite of his deceptive bulletins to the
press and his representations to the G.. A.
X. National Pension Committee, to
$1OS.28, or a trife over 81 a week Raum

down to $109.5j, but Evans pared another
miserable little S1.21 off the yearly allow

If we add to these 551, IFS, who get

about 100000 people already there. As
there are no particular industries, and
agriculture is in a wretched state, it is
hard to see what the negroes would do
after they got there. The country is
naturally very rich, and produces coffee
sugar, cotton, lOgwood, mahogany, cocoa,
bananas, etc, spontaneously, but the peO-
pie will do nothing to develop these re-
sources. What energy they show from
time to time is devoted to revolutions to
change the gangs of damagOgs who usurp
the privilege of taking toll from the coffee
and sugar plantations established by the
French in the last century, and OF cutting
the rich woods. The so-called Govern

ish taxation goes into effect next year.
The provincial treasurers are charged
with the duty of iuaugurating the
land tax system and it promises TO
work well. The lands OF the islands.
as you know. are held by that class OF
people who formulated legislation I'M
der Spanish rule and in consequence Il
land tax was never imposed.
Financially the archipelago and var
ious provinces are in good shape. This
province is out Of debt and has very
large surplus for road and other pro-
yincial uses.
You have doubtless heard great
deal about the friction existing be-
tween the two arms Of the government
now in the islands. My observation
leads me 10 believe that it is not CON
siderable aud crops out only in subor-
dinate places. The chiefs Of the army
and civil departments are IN accord
and If they are not that fact does not
in any way affect the administration Of
law and the firm establishment OF
peace. 1t Is but natural that the army
should feel Il resentment against these
natives who have caused so much
trouble and bloodshcd aud in this the
EciyiI authorities are ssharers, but
think the civil authorities realize more
thoroughly that the time has arrived
when the major part Of the archipelago
should be strictly under civil rule and
no occasion exists for military law.
IThe establishment Of civil government
means curtailment Of military'author-

Work Of Yandals.

The livery stable of c. R. Savage at
Deer Park was entered on Wednes-
day night by some person or persons
unknown who damaged his property
to the amount of four or five hundred
dollars, by cutting his harness to
pieces and slashing the tops and up
holstery of buggies, carriages, etc.
Entrance to the stable was made
easy owing to the insecurity of the
fastening on the door and the wanton
destruction of the property was done
between the hours of ten and two
O'Clock Wednesday night. The de-
property consisted of a set of new draft
harness, several sets of buggy and
carriage harness. The tops of bug
gies and carriages were ripped into
ribbons and the cushions were slashed
beyond repair.
The act is one which has no par
allel in this community and indigna-
ton is freely expressed by all over
the deed. The perpetrators OF the
outrage are not known at this time,
but it is the wish freely INDUCED in by
all that the guilty parties may be
apprehended and brought to jussice.
A subscription paper is now being
signed offering reward for the ar
rest and evidence sufficient to convict
the perpetrators of the deed.
