The people who are aghast over
the so.called "cruelties" in the Phil.
ippines should pause to remember
that war is cruel everywhere, and
we are either having war or insurrec-
ton In the Philippines. Cruelty il .
necessity in warfare, and is much
more excusable in case Of rebellion.
The Filipinos are fighting our sol.
diers, and are doing IL in the most
cowardly, sneaking way that their
savage cunning can devise. They do
not fight like soldiers, and cannot ex.
poet even by the magnanimous people
Of the United States to be treated like
soldiers. The United States troops,
for the good of the nation, the protec-
ton Of their own lives and the defense
Of the flag the Filipinons are fighting
against, which has never known de-
feat, should seek to end the war as
soon as possible. II all the ungrateful
rebels ON the islands have to be shot
down to do IL, it will be their own
fault. In case Of war there is no tins
for maudlin sentiment. Our soldiers
are on the islands fighting for the flag
we all live under, while certain class
Of fanatics ct home are doing every
thing possible to prolong the-war, and
add to the sacrifice Of life and treas
ure. The generals in command should
be allowed to conduct the campaign in
their own way, and If they deem it
necessary to kill and burn" or to
prescribe the water cure" we should
concede that they who are there, and
are familiar with conditions, are more
able to judge what is best to accom-
plish the ends sought.

which rendered the Illinois act I'M.
constitutional.
The court says:
I'm the original opinion, in dis
posing OF this case, we held that the
law Of 1890. creating and defining
trusts, illegal combinations and
monopolies, was unconstitutional.
Upon reconsideration we have con.
cluded that this statute was not in.
volved in the case before rs, and all
expressions in the original opinion

Remarkable evidence of the need for
a jamestown tercentenary anniversary
is furnished by the ignorance OF most
Americans with regard to the status of
jamestown itself. This cradle OF the
nation. as all virginians know, Is no
longer inhabited by any person except
those who keep guard over the ruins
there. jamestown is nothing but a
name and a remnant. II 1t were not

1t is announced that Mayor Yeiser
IS in favor Of compromising the suit
Of the brick street contractors against
the city Of Paducah for $1,000 for a
balance claimed to be due, and the
one of Roberts and Co., the New
York brokers, against the city
for $4,000 damages for failing to keep
the contract for refunding certain city
bonds the company had purchased and
sold. 1t will be Of interest to see
how the Lang faction regards this
move. The city either owes both
debts or it doesn't owe anything, and
to compromise will be virtual ad-
mission that the city owes the debts,
and that they resulted from misman-
agement during the Lang admins
tration.

Judge Sanders repeated efforts to
secure workhouse should have long
ago resulted in some recognition. At
present it is an imposition on the
people to punish women for misde.
meanors in the police court, for they
have to lay it out in the lookup at the
expense Of the people. A workhouse
would enable the city to get some re.
turn for the cost Of feeding them, and
would at the same time make their
sojourn in the city prison SO unpleas-
ant that they would learn to keep out
by better conduct. There was a
project some time ago to erect work.

lishment Of one was q matter of only
. short time, but even the memory Of
it seems to have been lost in the

is out on $4,000 bond. signed by Mr.. Jourdan
and Judge H. s. Priest. Mr.. Jourdan re-
minded the court Mr.. Snyder had sworn
when he gave the other bond that he was
worth only $4,000. Mr.. Jourdan said he
thought the $4,000 bond which Mr.. Folk
proposed would be excessive. and it might
be Mr.. Snyder could not give 1t. Judge
Ryan continued the hearing until Thursday
for Mr.. Snyder to come into court and show
cause why the bono should not be raised.
Mr.. Jourdan said Mr.. Snyder had returned
TO Kansas City after signing the SEQ. 900 bond
Wednesday.
kobusch's Bond Is Raised.
Mr.. Folk then moved to increase George
]. Kobusch's bond from 5000 to ss5. 600.
Charles Krone. one of kobusch's attorneys.
said he did not know how much his client
was worth. and did not know whether lie
could furnish bond In that amount. Judge
Douglas said the bond would be fixed at
S25.00. and for the defendant to be in court
by Tuesday. If he were unable to furnish
that amount of security. then TO come and
make affidavit TO his financial condition.
Henry Nicolaus's case was called. but his
attorney. Governor Charles p. Johnson. was
not in court Circuit Attorney Folk tele-
phoned Governor johnson, and he answered
his client could furnish bond in any amount
set by the court. Judge Ryan raised 1t from
$4,000 to $1,000, and gave him until Tuesday
to furnish the new bond.
Circuit Attorney Folk said he thought the
bond of John H. Becker, charged with at
tempted bribery, who is out on $4,000 sure
ty, was sufficient. Mr.. Folk then asked that
the bonds of Colonel Ed Butler be raised.
Neither Colonel Butler nor his attorneys
were in court. Mr.. Folk telephoned Gov
ernor johnson, who said he had no objection
TO the bonds being raised from $4,000 to
$4,000 each: but Thomas Rowe. the other
attorney for Colonel Butler, said he did
object and would appear in court in a few
minutes. The Judges waited for him. He
arrived in ten minutes.
There is 4 motion TO raise all the bonds
in the bribery cases" said Judge Douglas.
What have you to say@'
Lets see the motion" responded the at
torney.
Its not in writing" said Judge Douglas.
what have you to say why the bonds
should not be raised?'
Why. because the bonds OF Mr.. Butler
are high enough"
We'll. what is Mr.. Buffers financial con-
dition. what is his ability to furnish bond?"
THAT is a question which / take 1t the
court has no right TO ask"
THE bonds will be s90.o 900 in each case
replied the court in the same easy voice.
Have Mr.. Butler in court to furnish the
new bonds by Tuesday morning.

MISS BUSCH'S FUNERAL
CHURCH AT OMAHA FILLED WITH A
CROWD OF CURIOUS PEOPLE.
Street damned with Women and
Others Who Failed to Gain Admis-
sion-Plea for the Dead.

OMAHA, Neb., Nov. s.-Elbowing each
other roughly in an endeavor to gain ad-
mission to the German Baptist Church a
big crowd of women gathered this after
noon to attend the funeral Of Miss Augusta
Busch, who, with the Rev. William c.
Rabe. was found dead in the vestibule OF
the church last Tuesday morning. Long
before the hour set for the funeral the peo-
pie began to arrive. The church was
packed to suffocation and a long line of
disappointed men and women gathered in
front of the sanctuary unable to gain ad-
mittance. During the services the crowd
sermon had been concluded the street was
jammed with people on foot and in car
riageS.
The funeral was under the auspices of the
church. The Rev. Thomas Anderson, of
Calvary Baptist Church, conducted the
service. Mr.. Anderson referred openly to
the tragedy In his sermon, saying: MANY
enemies of the Christian church will make
much of the fall Of this man and this wom-
an, but / prefer TO overlook her faults
She Is more sinned against than SHINING
and whatever sin she committed was
atoned for by the years of self-sacrifice
that preceded It, All of US are weak, and
she fell before temptation"
The body was taken in charge by the
trustees of the church and was buried at
Forest Lawn Cemetery.
John Erion, brother-in-law of the dead
preacher, started this evening for Buffalo
with his remains. The funeral and infer
ment Will occur in that city.

the Unonist majority by over 1,500 was
greatly due to curious feature unassociat-
ed with current political controversies. Aus
tin Taylor, who just managed to win the
seat, had taken a prominent part in Liver
pool. to which the division belongs, against
the Rituallsts, whose practices caused the
crusade which recently ended In the tragic
death of John Kensit. the anti-Ritualist
leader. In fact Mr.. Taylor had gone so far
as to support a Liberal in a neighboring
constabulary against a Conservative high
churchman. This stirred up the Ritualists
of East Toxteth to such an extent that they
entered upon a vigorous campaign against
MIR. Taylor and prominent Unionists issued
an appeal for aid for the Liberal candidate.
Premier Balfour and Colonial Secretary
Chamberlain intervened. but were unable
to restore harmony. The curious spectacle
was then presented of Liberal backed
up by Nonconformists daily denouncing
the clerical tendencies of the educational
bill, yet having the support of the fash
ionable clergy and their congregations.
Both by-electtons, taken in conjunction
with other Liberal successes, are inter
