BELL sCOUReEs BATANeAs
eamar still Warlike-American Com
mander Conducting a viuor-
Gus Campaign.

General J. Franklin Bell is conduct
Ing vigorous campaign in Batangas
province. Every available soldier Is
In the field. The columns under the
command of Colonels Wint and Dough-
erty are doing excellent work and
driving the Philippines in all dlrec-
tions. A number of the latter are
fleeing to Tayabas province, where
the native contabulary are rendering
valuable assistance IN capturing men
and rifles. The advocates of peace
at Manila deprecate the stern meas.
ures employed by General Bell. In
reply General Bell says that these
peace advocates have had numerous
opportunities to use their influence as
they have been given passes through
the American lines almost for the ask
ing. and that it has been afterward
proved that they often went through
the lines for the purpose of assisting
the insurrection. General Bell says
the best peace methods now Is a rigor-
Gus warfare until the insurrection Is
completely subdued. The arrest of
members of the wealthy Lopez family
and the confiscatlon of their steamers
and rice. as well as the arrest of
three members of the religious corpor-
ations. who were known to be instiga-
tors of the insdrrection. has had an
excellent effect upon the natives. Con
ditions in the Island of Samar are
still unsatisfactory owing to the diff
ilculty of finding the insurgents. Cap
tain Schoeffel of the Ninth Infantry,
who was wounded in severe hand-to-
hand fight last month at Dapdap,
Samar Island. between is men of Com
pany n of his regiment and a large
force of bolomen. has practically re-
covered from the effects of his wound.
In an official report of the encounter
IN which Captain Schoeffel was hurt,
1t Is said that .Schoeifel killed three
men before he received his wound,
and that the remnants of the detach-
ment of is men with him were saved
by his personal courage and daring.

Land Irrigation Bill-Wait for
15o,ooo,0oo People.

Representative Siblcy is one of tine
leading opponents of the scheme to
irrigate the arid lands of the desert
west by government aid and since
his return TO Washington from the
holiday recess he has been actively
engaged In consulting with his col
leagues and laying before them the
arguments necessary to cause them
to vote against bill for this purpose.
He has made progress in his canvass.
and is hopeful of success. Mr.. Sib-
leys opposition to the scheme is
based on his desire to protect the
farmers OF the other sections. For
years they have battled with adyersi.
ty, but during the last FIVE years they
have commenced TO realize what It is
to live: Good prices have been re-
ceiyed for their crops, mortgages have
been lifted and the families of the
farmers have been able to enjoy life
little. But to irrlgate the arid
lands of the west means to again
bring the farmers into competition
and to return them almost to the po-
sltion they were In prior to the ad-
vent of the present period of prosper
ity. Mr.. Sibley claims that there are
enough farms under cultivation now
TO supply the needs Of this country
and furnish surplus for Europe.
Therefore, he believes in protecting
the farmers for awhile. Later on, he
says. when this country has n popula-
tlon of say 150000,000 persons. 1t
