GENERAL CHAFFEE's REPORT.

There is one man in the Philippines
boldly regarding misconduct of the
American soldiers and that man is at
the head of the army IN those islands,
and this in a report TO his superior Of
ticerS-
The report OF General Chaffee on
the court-martial Of Major Waller and
Lieutenant Day is a marked exception
to the conduct df other officers there
and even Of the war department itself
I'm regard to the conduct of officers and
charge. of acts of cruelty.
His criticism Of the action of the
court in acquitting Lieutenant Day is
extremely severe. He says. in reference
to the l~ieutenant's defense that he was
acting under Major Walters order
when he shot the F%ilipinos, thai he
should have refused to obey the orders
and continues:
Above and beyond all personal con-
~Sideration, officers must guard the
name and honor of the country. Had
Lieutenant Day been actuated by such
considerations he probably would have
prevented n Of the most regrettable
incidents in the ANIMALS of the military
service of the United States. The
Junior officers in the army must take
these words to heart and understand
that there are occasions when obedience
to riders will be a crime"
AS to Major Walters defense that he
was Frustrated with fever and tempo
rarily insane when he ordered the shoot
ing of the natives. the general says if
this fact had not been proven he should
have been convicted Of murder n
punished; but that while Justly &C
Quilted of murder for this reason, he
should have been found guilty of the
other minor offenses charged against
him.

THE sPANIARD OR THE MOSQUITO.

From it's foundation to the close o:
Spanish control. Havana had been
the home of yellow fever and q pest
house of disease. The Americans made
war on h SDaniard and drove hiEl out;
then they attacked the mosquito, which
modern science says is. the p~ropegator
and dissemination of fever and other
germs.
Whether the cause of the unhealthy
condition of Havana. and other Cuban
seaports, was Spanish filth and sloth or
the venomous mosquito, the success OF
American warfare and science has
wrought a great change. Havana is
now a healthy city, thanks to American
sanitary ideas. The Spaniard has gone
and his accumation of filth of several
centuries has disappeared and the mos
quito is being attended to. Whether Il
was the one or the other or the two
combined Havana and the world are
indebted 10 the United States for the
great change wrought. Four years g
Havana was a pesthole. Today it il a
healthy city. with a death rate ranking
with that of the most carefully policed
cities in the world. In 1898 the death rate
in Havana was 81 per 1000; in 1890 il
was "a per 1000; in 1901 it had been re-
duced to % per 1000, and for the first
four months Of this rear it "a still less.
Yellow fever and smallpox, the diseases
most dreaded by the islanders. have
been eradicated. Then has been none
of the former in Havana since Septem-
Der 1901 and of the latter since July
1900.
When the york of exterminating
these diseases was first begun we had
no aid or encouragement from the in
habitants; they did not believe it posi-
BILE to eradicate them; in fac the men
engaged in this sanitary work had
many obstacles thrown in their way.
American perseverance and pluck,
though, conquered finally, and today
Havana is a refuge of health for inva-
lids from northern climates.

SUNDAY

Atlanta, the gate city Of the south,
is forging ahead in journalism as we'll
as along commercial and industrial
lines. Her two leading dailies are max
ing great strides in ~up-to-date methods.
The Journal, an afternoon paper, began
June 1st the publication Of a Sunday
morning edition. The first issue con
tains fifty-six pages.
This of course, spurred up its rival,The
Constitution, which came out Sunday
morning with fifty-four pages. Reading
matter can be found III them to suit
any taste. This shows what newSpa-
pers can do when they have the sup
port and backing of the people. These
two papreS are deserving of the support
they get and their patrons know it and
give it unstintedly.

The war is over. Peace terms have
been agreed upon and signed by Lord
Miner n Genera Kitchener repre-
senting Great britain and by the Boer
representatives. Such was the news
received in London by cable from Lord
Kitchener at u late hour Saturday
night. The king and cabinet officers
were first notlned and then the news
was given to the public.
The news spread rapidly and the peo-
pie went wild with joy. The church
bells were rung to proclaim the glad
tidings. The people assembled in the
streets singing and shouting for joy.
Although it was generally understood
that a peace agreement would be soon
reached, the news o. the people Of
London by surprise. thereby adding to
the excitement and intensity of feeling.
The joy at the news was not confined
to the ~populace of the streets. In the
clubs and fashionable hotels there was
excitement and rejoicing over the news.
The terms OF peace were read in the
house of yesterday after
noon. The BoarS acknowledged Ed
ward as their king and are promised
self government as soon as the affairs
of the country can be arranged.
