TO. FORCE RESPECT.
Con. Chaffee Plans Vigorous Campaign
Against Rebeiiious Natives OF samar,
Where Occurred the Latest Disaster.

Washington, Oct. 7.-Late advices
from the Philippines indicate that the
military authorities intend to take
prompt and vigorous measures for the
suppression of the insurrection in the
island of Samar, and that attention
will be directed first to the summary
punishment of the treacherous ma
tives who took part in the massacre
of company C, of the Ninth infantry,
at Balangiga. There is, therefore,
every prospect that the island of
Samar will be the theater of active
hostilities for some time to come, as
1t is the purpose of Gen. Chaffee to
teach the rebellious inhabitants
lesson and force them to respect the
power and sovereignty of the United
States.
Had Warning Been Given?
Manila, Oct. 7.-Maj. Morris G.
Foote, of the Ninth United States in
fantry, who has returned here from
the island of Samar, was in Balangiga
the day before the disaster of COM
pany c. He says that Capt. Cornell
had been fully warned and had taken
what he (Maj. Foote) considered
every necessary prccaution. Informa-
tion that plot was brewing among
the Filipinos came to Maj. Foote from
priest, who said it was in the plans
of the populace ut both Balangiga
and Basey to attack the garrisons
and that the Basey garrison was to
be attacked from cockpit in the
rear of the barracks. Orders were
Immediately given to demolish the
cockpit and extra guards were sta
toned.
Feeling is particularly intense in
military circles because the authors
of the massacre were pacificos, most
of whom had taken the oath of allie
glance and many of whom. includ-
ing the president of Balangiga, were
actually holding Office.

Joint-smashing Not Legal.


The Kansas supreme court affirmed
the Judgment of the district court of
Shawnee county in the case of the
state against Bale Stark. Stark was
one of Carrie Nations assistants in
joint smashing. In one of their raids
they destroyed property which led
10 arrests. Stark was fined $25 and
costs. The whole amount was about
500. He appealed to the supreme
court, claiming among other things
that n saloon, being under the ban
of the law, might be destroyed by any
citizen without violation of law. In
the syllabus the court says: "All
places where Intoxicating liquors are
sold or kept for sale, or places where
persons are permitted to resort for
the purpose of drinking the same, are
declared by the statute to be common
nuisances. This fact, however, does
not justify their abatement by any
person or persons without process of
law. They can be abated only by a
prosecution instituted in behalf of the
public by the proper officers"

KANSAS NEWS OF RECENT DATE.

Coburn and the Agricultural College.
In regard to the differences Of opin-
ion existing among regents of the
state agricultural college ut Manhat-
tan as to the conduct of the school,
Secretary of Agriculture Coburn said:
my contention is that the institution
was intended to be and should be, as
it's official designation implies, an 'ag-
ricultural college, not necessarily for
teaching agriculture alone, but being
our only school designed for any such
purpose it should especially give agri-
culture, animal husbandry, dairying,
cereal or crop improvement and
closely kindred interests an outstand-
ing prominence and support, with the
various other studies well maintained
in Importance in proportion as they
are related in an institution so differ
ent from the ordinary. While the
present president is doubtless a
worthy young man and capable OF
teaching physics or mathematics, for
which purpose he was originally hired
ut Manhattan, l regard him as in
herently unable to comprehend in any
large way the important position he
occupies, or the purposes, opportuni-
ties and possibilities of the college so
largely in his hands, and he is so re-
garded by others most widely observ-
ant in this line of educational work."

Feed Low Grade RiceS.

With the effort now made TO
hammer the life out of the rice
market, while all other agricul-
tural products are abnormally
high, low grade rice has reached
point at which it is q much
cheaper feed for work stock than
corn or cast. Two years ago
fed my teams Il full year on red
rice. They never did better. A
sack of rice is worth more for
feed than a sack of oats. OF
course il should be ground to
prevent seeding the land. A
sack OF outs costs upward of
three dollars. SO that every sack
of rice used as feed will bring
the farmer three dollars. 1t
seems foolish to sell it for less
and pay the price feed is likely
to cost to put in the next crop.
Corn is likely to cost 81 per bus
bel and oats Ocents per bushel
for putting in the next crop.
These facts should reconsider.
