ACTIVE BEFORE ELECTION.

been displayed by the six candidates

was left undone by each to win the con-
sejales of the different pueblos, who, by
the way, promised each candidate that
they would support. Governor Goldman.

written promises from nearly every elector
in the province although it was predicted
long before the election that he would
not receive more than fifteen votes

RECORD on CANDIDATw

RECORD OF CANDIDATES.
-Four OF the candidates live in Balanga.
Thomas del Rosario who is third in the
voting, lives in Manila, being we'll
known lawyer OF that city.
Each candidate has something of a
record. Senor Lerma, the first candidate
is the present provincial secretary. and
having been educated in Hongkons,
speaks English f1uently. Governor Cold
man mas been captain in tho Thirty-sec-
ond Volunteer Infantry, and since he took
possession of his office great improve
ments are the results of his labors, and
his defeat means great loss to the
province, especially financially so. as he
has under way further improvements that
his successor will abandon, and in fact
will begin with new labor. Pedro de Leon
was the provincial governor during the
time that the Filipino government existed,
he having been put in by Aguinaldo
There is a stain on his record, however,
which his opponents are using against
him. During his time in office Aguinaldo
saw fit to relieve him and this was used
in the campaign. Pablo Tecson, of Dram.
a lieutenant-colonel OF insurgents, and
Aguinaldo's private secretary. was a can
didatc.
MEANS STEP BACKWARD.
Taking it all round, this province is not
prepared to have native governor In
the first place, the natives are not fit to
run their own Government according to
American ideas. With this change of gov.
ernor it would be unsafe to predict any
future for this province, and retrogres-
sion will be almost certain to supplant
past prosperity,

Detroit, Mich, April 14.-At mid
night Saturday night, ~ hours after
Prof. Joseph M. Miller murdered Miss
Carrie M. Jennett with Ratchet, he
was in Jackson prison, sentenced to
spent the rest of his life there at hard
labor. He was arraigned in the re-
corder's court this morning on the
charge of murder. His attorney, who
was appointed by the court, raised the
question of Miller's sanity, and Judge
Murphy accordingly appointed com.
mission of three alienists to examine
Miller. His plea was withheld pend
ing their examination.
After a careful examination, the
physicians came into court this after
noon and announced that they were
agreed that there were no symptoms
of insanity in the defendant. Miller
was then ordered to plead, and the
confessed murderer said in a low
voice:
Guilty"
Evidence was then introduced to
prove the death of Miss Jennett. At
its conclusion, Miller's attorney, E. E.
Chamberlain, addressed the court. He
congratulated the police on their eff
cient work in running down the muir.
derer and securing his confession, and
said that he had no sympathy with
Miller, who deserved the extreme pen
atty of the law. In sentencing Miller,
Judge Murphy called him a demon,
and said that he considered that the
sentence he was about to impose on
him was inadequate to his horrible
crime.
Miller was taken back to Jail, where
he remained until he left for the sta
ton. Accompanied by two officers, he
went to Jackson at 500 o'clock, over
the Michigan Central railroad.
Mrs. Miller, his wife, who has beer

GENERAL MILES 70 RESIGN

Washington, April 1.-THE issues
are fairly Joined between the lieuten-
ant general and the secretary of war.
The troubles which began long ago un-
der the Cleveland administration have
finally reached so critical stage that
a compulsory retirement of General
Miles at an early date is an open Sc
cret and is not denied at the White
House. In explanation of President
Roosevelt's position. one of his close
friends, who unquestionably speaks by
authority, said:
The question is not personal one
between General Miles and Secretary
Root. At present Secretary Root has
on his shoulders a heavier burden
than any other member of the admin
stration. No man less strong could
carry it at all; and nov, at the very
time when he requires the most loyal
support of every subordinate who
wishes we'll to the army and the ma
ton, he has to spend much of his
strength in meeting the opposition of
the commanding general If General
Miles is retired, it will be simply be-
cause after patient trial President

Washington, April 13.-Rev. T. De
Witt Talmage, the noted Presbyterian
cler 'gyman, died at 9 o'clock Saturday
night at his residence in this city. II
had been evident for some days that
there was no hope of his recovery
and the attending physicians so in
formed the family. The patient grad
ually grew weaker until life passed
away so quietly that the members OF
the family, all of whom were watching
at the bedside, hardly knew that he
had gone. The immediate cause OF
death was Inflammation Of the brain
DR.. Talmage was in poor health
when he started away from Washing
| ton for Mexico for a vacation and rest
six weeks ago.
He was then suffering from inf1u
enza and serious catarrhal conditions
| Since his return to Washington some
time ago he had been i'll. Until Thurs
day, however, fears of his death were
not entertained. The last rationa
\ words uttered by DIR. Talmage were or
the day preceding the marriage of hi:
daughter, when he said:
l "Of course l know you, Maud"
Since then he has been unconscious

Rodriguez i'm Command.

Washington, April l4.-Governor Cen
eral Wood has issued an order directing
Brigadier General Alexandra Rodriguez,
chief of the rural guard of Havana, to
take command of the Cuerpo de Artillera,
in addition to his present duties with the
guard. On the transfer of the present
government, General Rodriguez is directed
to report to the president of Cuba. as
"commandant of the Cuban armed forces,
for such orders and instructions as may
be given him."

Roosevelt feels that on the highest
ethical grounds his retention would
work grave and lasting injury to the
army as a whole.
AS some of General Miles friends
have said that it would be unfair to
retire him, it should be said in the
first place that he secured similar
forced retirement of General Ord, he
himself being jumped over number
of his senior officers to the vacancy
thus created; and, in the second place,
that this would be the second similar
action taken by President Roosevelt
since he has been in Office, as In the
case of Colonel Moves. who was com
pulsorily retired, after having reached
the age of So, on the recommendation
of General Miles. In other words, the
general has himself recommended and
profited by the very action which his
friends now fear he may be subjected
to.
General Brooke. who is General
Miles senior both in rank and age,
and who has seen distinguished SER
vice both in the volunteer and civil
war, would be General Miles success
sor, as it is known that the administra-
ton is very DESTROYS of recognizing
General Brooke's long and faithful SER
vice. General Brooke during the civil
war rendered equally meritorious SER
vice with General Miles, and General
Brooke was the first to receive COM
mission and throughout the civil war
he retained his advantage.
General Brooke would hold the
commission but for brief period be-
fore his retirement for age. General
S. B. M. Young is likely to succeed
General Brooke and General Chaffee's
promotion will follow two years
hence"

Seattle, April l4.-One of the most
serious conditions that have ever con.
fronted the lumber and single manufac-
turers of the Pacific northwest is before
them now. 1t is the prospective with
drawal from business in this region Of
the liability insurance companies, which
would force the manufacturers to carry
their own liability risks. This the mill
men can not do, the Pacific Lumber Trade
Journal will say in its April issue Tues

more than possibility at least that the
large mills will be forced to suspend oper
ations indefinitely.
