 'Last evening at 8:3o o'clock Rev. o. J. Wade, pastor of the ElDorado Baptist Church, and Miss Clara Davies, of this place, were married at the Methodist Church, Rev. Chas.

TIME FOR HOLDING PRIMARIES.

We entirely agree with the Mon- ticellonian with regard to the matter of holding primarylelec- tions both as to State, District and Counties. For the former, there should be a uniform time and they should be held early in
 the season, not later perhaps
 than the time recommended by the State Central Committee, As to the counties. no time can
 be set that would suit the pc culiar exigencies of each and ev- cry county in the State. The object of q primary is to bring out the full voting strength of Democratic voters and a season

MURDEROUS FILIPlNOS.

War anywhere is bad enough. In the Philippines 1t IS the worst Uncle Sam has been engaged in. War in the Philippines is every bit as bad as General Sherman said waris It is guerrilla fight ing and massacre combined. For many months officers from the Philippines have been return ing to the United States, and on their arrival home submitted to interviews, and their deserip- tions of the situation in the isl ands have been published in the newspapers. All their views of the conditions prevailing in the Philippines were optimistic. Otis and MacArthur have repeatedly declared that the war is over and that there is no trouble in the new possessions except that which the troops encounter with rowing bands of brigands who will not fight in the open.
 The islands are not pacific by any means. In the upper Luzon the guerrilla warfare still pre- vails. The insurgent forces are distributed along every road and fight from ambush whenev- CT the opportunity presents it. self. In some portions of the islands a society of assassins has been organized, the object of which IS to murder every American that crosses it's path. Many of the natives placed in office by the commission are members of this band of assas sins.
 The company of United States regulars which was almost com p!etely annihilated last Satur- day at Balangagi was the vic tim of treachery. The presidento of the town, who was supposed to be friendly to the government, is said to have led the assault in person. The story of the mas sacre, meager as 1t is, is most horrible in it's details. The troops were brutally slaughter ed. Their bodies were mutilat- ed and burned.
 The murderous natives. in as saulting the wild beasts in the iungles of the Philippines. could not have treated their prey more inhumanelv than they did the representatives of the United States government who came to them bearing olive branches and offering protection to themselves and their homes. The massacre i'll Sanar goes to show that the Americans are still ignorant of the character of the Fiipinos, and that they have a task in civ ilizing the peoples of those isl ands more difficult than the one they undertook in this country when the red man was the mas ter of the situation.
 The Philippine problem is diff 6cult of solution. We have a gi- gantic job on our hands. The present generation, we fear, will not witness the end of the war in those islands. In time the na- tives may become pacified. not by the army with rifles and gat- ling guns. but by the army of school teachers who are now distributed about Luzon instill- ing into the minds of the rising generation of Filipinos the bless ings of education and free gov ernment. American confidence in the Filipinos of the present has been very much shaken by

A corresponding Increase occurred i'm all
