DEATH Of MRS. KIDD.
A Highly Esteemed Lady Of Ogden Passed Away
Last Wednesday.
OF the Yorkyille Enquirer

Correspondence Of the Yorkville Enquirer
OGDEN, April 22-On Wednesday, the
18th instant, at o'clock, a. M, Mrs.
Frances A. Kidd. widow OF the late
James H. Kidd, Sr., of this place, died
at the home Of her son-in-law, Mr.. j.
F. Isom, in Charlotte, N. c., having
stopped over at that place on her way
home from Spartanburg county. where
she had been for sometime with her
daughter, Mrs. ]. N. Isom, who was
very ill.
She came to Charlotte on Friday and
was complaining then of having a bad
cold, which terminated in pneumonia,
and she died, as stated above, on Wed
neSday after her arrival on Friday.
Her son, Mr.. I. S. Kidd, reached her
bedside the day before her death; but
she was unconscious and did not rec
ognize him.
Mrs. Kidd was 20 years, months
and l day old. She was the daughter of
Isaac Smith, Sr.. and Rebecca Eliza
beth (Gladden) Smith, and was one
Of a family of Il children. OF this
number there is only one-Mrs. Sarah
Campbell-surviving.
About So years ago she (Mrs. k1dd)
was married to James II. Kidd, who
preceded her to the grave nearly four
years. A large family of children
eight girls and four boys-blessed the
union. Eight of this number are still
living. She also leaves 46 living grand
children and II dead. Her living great
grandchildren number 81 and five dead.
Mrs. Kidd and her husband, like
many others. started in life poor, with
out anything; but by good manage
ment and hard work they succeeded in
M n 10 N rct1
and were always ready and willing to
favor and accommodate their neigh
hors and others. whenever an opportu-
nifty was offered.
Up to her last illness. Mrs. Kidd en-
joyed very good health for lady Of
her age. with the exception of her
sight. which had almost completely
failed her. She was an excellent
nurse for the sick. and when there was
any sickness in the neighborhood, she
was generally called on. and always
went unless she. herself. was sick,
which was hardly ever the case. In
this and many other capacities she

AGUINAlD0's PROCLAMATION.

The proclamation of Aguinaldo to his
people, calling upon them to acknowl-
edge the sovereignty Of the United
States and to accept the blessings Of
liberty that have been offered to them,
suggests some reflections that are we'll
worthy of serious attention at this
time.
In effect, the Filipino leader says
that from the first he misunderstood
the Americans, and failed to appre-
ciate their liberal intentions toward
the Philippine islands. From what he
says, it is fair to assume that had he
known what he was doing from the
start, he would have never made the
trouble that he did make. He frankly
commends the course Of those of his
countrymen who had voluntarily en-
braced the new order of things. while
he was in the woods, and gives us rea-
son to assume that had he only been
in a position to see things as his more
favorably situated countrymen saw
them, he would have surrendered long
ago.
There are those, of course, who will
try to make it appear that Aguinaldo's
proclamation is the result of coercion;
that the Filipino leader has only given
utterance to it in order to secure favor
with his captors. Only little reflec-
ton on this view of the situation is
necessary to reveal the serious dilem-
ma in which those who hold it will
find themselves. If Aguinaldo is not
telling the plain truth now, he is a
traitor to his people instead Of pa
triot, and he has never, for minute,
been worthy of the high regard in
which many people in this country
have been disposed to hold him. If he
is telling the truth, then he has all
the while been entitled to that regard
and his admirers must consider them
selves included in his surrender, or lay
themselves open to the charge of bad
faith.
But all this bloodshed in the Philip
pines has not been in vain. Having
lived for more than 300 years under
Spanish despotism, it was natural for
the Filipinos to assume that their
new masters would be the same as
their old ones. They had been fighting
Spain for certain concessions, and that
they would get these concessions from
America without fighting was beyond
their comprehension. The liberty Of
the American is something that few
others than Americans can under
stand. Had the Filipinos accepted
American sovereignty without a fight
they would have naturally considered
the freedom that would have come to
them afterward as having been con-
ceded because of this country's weak
ness, and it would not have been a
great while before they would have
been in rebellion for the actual SOW
ereignty that they are as yet unfit to
exercise. Now that they have had
their fight and been impressed with
American power and courage by be-
ing thoroughly whipped, there is no
possibility that they can look upon
the new sovereign as a weakling,
and as they begin to realize the bless
ings of liberty that will soon be theirs,
they will be all the better fitted for
the enjoyment of these blessings.
