Don't Love US.

Sixto Lopez declares that SO per
cent of the people Of the Philippines
oppose American rule, favor indepen-
dence and, conquered or not, will neY-
er favor dependence. He adds: The
Filipinos prefer to be men, even IN
poverty, rather than subjects in lux
ury. They prefer self-respect, even
at the cost Of great suffering, rather
than be serfs under a millennlal gov
ernment provided by a master,
Which explains why the Senate Phil
ippine committee refused, by a strict
vote" to hear him. 1t naturally pre-
ferred to hear more OF Buencamino,S
loyal views. The Republican party
has always darely loved renegade.

OUTBURsT OF MARTINIQUE.

over Fort de France half an hour later
there was no panic al that place. 1t

kingStown. Island Of st. Vincent,
Wednesday, June 4.-EeSsels leaving
the island of Martinique have expert
enced upheayals and agitationS of the
sea, pointing to submarine eruptlonS
between Martinique and st. Lucia.
In the island of St. Vincent the
shining fleece clouds which have been
continually rising and spreading in
the direction Of the S0ufriere vo.can0
since May 1t. and which have been
mistaken for tropical clouds have
proved to be steam emitted from the
crater from which flashes Of flames are
Issuing nightly. This combined with
renewed vibrations in the fire zone has
increased appprehensions that therebe
may another eruption of the Soufriere
shortly The eruptions at Martinique
seem to relieve the st. Vincent volca-
no materially.
Connections between the two volca-
noes is indisputable as every eruption
in Martinique is accompanied by cor
responding seismic and atmospheric
disturbances there.

Hard on the Army.

The indianapolis News makes the
point very clearly. 1t says: The
Presidents great mistake was in COM
pairing the Philippine atrocities to
lynchings in this country, much to
the disadvantage of the latter. We
can not think that a brave and hon
orable army officer would care to have
the army judged by the same, standard
as that applied to an irresponsible and
furious mob. The crimes Of the lynch
ers are quite as bad as anything that
has been done in the Philippines, but
they do not reflect so discreditably on
the country because they are not COM
mitted by the sworn agents of the
Government ITSELF"

same. The mortgage WAS executed
and Mr.. Duncan recciptcd to Frank
for the S250-the receipt setting forth
that Ella TaylorS title t. the lot was
