who hesitates about putting a bullet
through an unarmed and defenceless
man, should be treated to the water
cure. The Globe thinks that the par
ties who made public Major Walters
testimony, that General Jake Smith
ordered the American soldiers In the
island OF Samar to kill everything
above ten years old, are malicious
s%landerers Of the army. Let US take
the ground assumed by the spologists
OF assassination and arson in the
Philippine Islands. Suppose that a
soldier from the rifle range should be
found in one of the alleys of Ironton
with his throat cut, would that justify
such an order as General Wheaton
gave in a similar instance, when he
directed his command to destroy an
entire community-man, woman and
childP Suppose that a feud should
occur between a portion OF u people
and the soldiers, and twenty or thirty
OF them should be massacred, would
that justify an order for the slaughter
of every human being above the age
of ten years and the destruction of
every building in the county? Is there
any state of affairs that can possibly
arise that would justify an indiscrimi-
nate massacre of men, women and
childrenP 1t is useless to deny the
facts, and ven the organs of the ad-
ministration have ceased to do so.
President Roosevelt's order for the
courtmartial of General Smith is a con.
fession OF the facts. The hundreds o.
letters that have reached the United
States from those islands all tell the
same tale. 1t is quite possible tina
the promoters of the Philippine wa
desire to see the population of those
islands wiped off, as they would ther
be open to the land Spectator and the
timber speculator. They would ther
be in a condition to be made profit
able TO the great monied interests o
this country. Perhaps the plan o
massacre and burning was entered
upon at the instance of the men WHIT
own the Republican party; if so Gen
Jake Smith is in no danger of punish
ment, nor is any other assassin VIII,
has committed murder in those island
under the guise Of warfare. There i
no sentiment about the latter da,
money lord. If it will pay to kill mel
and destroy women and children, i
will be done, and their organs, such a
the Globe Democrat, will defend then
in their course.
