A short time ago instructions were
issued to all commanding officers of
regiments calling upon them to re-
port by certain date, first, whether
they were in favor of the substitution
Of a tailcoat for the present pattern

such tails should be red or blue.
Among the replies received by the
committee was one which ran as fol
lows: 'sSir-In answer to your ques-
ton, I beg to report that "a I ap-
prove the adoption of a tail-coat for
mess purposes, and (2) that I con-
slider that one tail should be red and

and Gems. Bates and Bell headed an expe
dition which left Manila February 10 to
drive the enemy from the Camarines. Both
of these expeditions encountered consid-
erable opposition from small bodies of in
surgent troops, but were in the end sue
cessful in accomplishing the objects for
which they were organized with but small
loss of life
The details of the campaigns of 1901 and
of the present year are fresh in the pub
lie mind that rehearsal of their details
is unnecessary. OF last year the two most
important occurrences were the capture OF
Aguinaldo by Gen. Funston on March %
and the establishment of civil government
in the islands by the Taft commission Cd
July a. There has been considerable fight
ing since that time. The campaign in Sa-
mar, with its attendant horrors, will prob
ably not soon be forgotten, either by the
participants or the American public, and
now promises to result in a number OF
court-martials for different army officers.
The recent surrender of Gen. Malvar has
seemingly virtually ended the organized
opposition to American rule, and the Of
ficials at Manila are in hopes of an early
and permanent peace.

third of June to the thirteenth of the same
month succeeded in driving the insurgents
not only from the shores of this body Of
water, but from around the shores of Ma
Mia bay as well, and soon after had driven
the enemy from every stronghold in Cavite
province.
Gen. Macarthur opened the second cam
paign to the north of Manila on August 8,
when he moved against Angeles. Bacolor
was first captured, and on August Is the
army arrived before the intrenchments at
Angeles. The place was captured with a
loss of but two killed and II wounded.
During the same time Gen. Young had
taken the towns of San Mateo, Balcuag and
Quingua.
While American troops had been fight
ing the insurgents in Luzon the rebellion
had spread to other islands and insurgent
garrisons had been established in Panay,
Leyte, Cebu, Negros, Samar and other is
lands. Gen. Miller had captured noilo on
February Il; Bacolod, in Negros, was taken
by Col. Smith, and on February 81 Cebu
was taken by Capt. Cornwall, of the Petrol.

On November I movement was begun
against Tar1ac, then the lnsurgent capital.
Mabalacat was the first place captured.
and on the following day, November O..
San Fabian fell into American hands, and
Iariac was captured on November L. but
Aguinaldo and his government had moved.
The following day the insurgents were at
tackled at San Jacinto, the place being cap
tured, but not until it had cost the life of
MAJ. John A Logan. The fighting contin-
ued with but small loss to the Americans
| until Dagupan, the northern terminus of
the railroad running from Manila, was
reached on November 20. Four days later
President Bautista, of the Filipino con-
gress, surrendered himself to Gen. Mac
Arthur and Gen. Otis telegraphed the war
department at Washington that "the in
surgent government could no longer claim
an existence" At that time the insur-
gent treasurer, secretary OF the interior
and president OF its congress were in Amer
lean hands.
The American troops pushed steadily
northward, and on December Gen.
Young's command arrived at Vigan, near
the northwest extremity of Luzon. In or
der to follow the rapidly dispensing enemy
Gen. Young divided his force into smaller
bodies of troops and dispatched them in
different directions for the purpose of cap
turing Gen. Tino and Gen. Del Pillar, and
on December IL Gen. Tirona surrendered
the whole of the district to the American
forces, Capt. McCalla, of the navy, ac-
cepting the surrender.
During the middle of December two
notable events occurred. The first, on De-
| cember Is, was the rescue of Lieut.. Gil
| more, of the navy, and his men, who had
been captured near Baler, April u, and the
other was the death of Gen. Lawton, killed
during the fight at San Mateo on Decem-
| Der 10.
By the opening of the year 1900 the in
surgent opposition had dwindled to but
| little more than force of scattered ban

been pretty generally cleared, and Gems,

ornaments of silver bullion. OF far more
influence were the priests, an influence that
was much more often exercised for good
than for bad, and many evidences of their
rule are to be found throughout the is
lands in the shape of roads and bridges. To
be sure the natives were taxed for far more
of these eonveniences than were built, but
it is question if any would have been built
had it not been for the priests.
The real government OF the islands lay in
the hands of the governor general, a crown
appointee. He was assisted by a council
of state.N The minister of the colonies at
Madrid was the direct head of the gov
ernment, as he was of all the Spanish col
onies, but he was assisted by an advisory
council for the Philippines, residing in
Madrid, and to this council was specially
intrusted the interests of the Philippines.
The islands could never be properly
termed a Spanish colony They were held
only as a military possession To extort
money from the people, under the various
forms of taxation that cunning and rapacity
had devised, was the sole purpose of Spain
and the business and object of the govern

$50 o'clock was fred the first shot IN the
revolution OF the Filipino soldiery against
American occupation, revolution that has
continued to the present time, though Is
now, after almost two and half years of
fighting, seemingly near close.
The Filipinos demanded absolute inde-
pendence of the American people, and that
this country refused to grant. That, in a
concise way, may be accepted the cause
of the present rebellion in the Philippines.
During the three days following the firing
of the first shot the American troops drove
the insurgents from the line of defenses
they occupied outside Manila and secured
possession of the suburbs of the city. Dur
ing this three days of fighting 1900 Amer
lean troops were opposed to Aguinaldo' s
army of 10000 Filipinos.
The battle of Pasig, on March Is, was the
next important engagement between the
two forces. 1t was early in March that the
advance on the rebel capital at Malolos was
begun. The first fight of this campaign was
on March 26 at Malinta, and this was fol-
lowed by the capture of Malolos on March
81, but Aguinaldo had moved his govern
Barton County democrat., 1902-05-02

ment to San Fernando, and upon his de-
parture fired the government buildings.
The victory was signal one, however, as
it resulted in the capture of subsistence
stores valued at one and half million dol
lars.
The American troops continued to push
northward toward the new rebel capital
rapidly, and on April 10 was fought the
battle of Santa Cruz, which place was cap
tured on April 25, and on May San Fer
nando fell into the hands of the American
troops. The capture of this place prac-
tically closed the campaign to the north
of Manila until the close Of the rainy sea-
son. Gen. Lawtonis command returned to
Gen. MacArthur's lines on May q after
having marched distance of 120 miles,

lose his life in the conflict, was not al
lowed to rest his troops. He was assigned

AS the American boats got within closer
range the smaller guns added their roar
to that of the larger ones, and the terrific
fire was kept up until 1885 when Dewey felt
that he had had enough for beginner, and
not wanting to spoil good thing too soon,
quit for breakfast, and pull at the pipe
or cigar.
1t was not until 1880 that he again went
at the Spaniards. He had furnished suf
fcient sport for his sailormen, and now
intended to finish the job in hurry and
put the enemy out of their misery without
further loss of time, and before it could
interfere with his dinner arrangements
The midday meal would be served aboard
the flagship at one, and it was necessary
that the job be completed and the muss
cleared up before that time. To accomplish
this every gun, big and little, that could
be brought into play, was used, and it was

Dewey gave to the United States something
like 125,O00 square miles of territory, and
secured for himself the thanks of the Amer
