SAVAGE OUT OF IT.
Nebraska Governor Says He WIN Not Ask
the Republican state Convention
for q denomination.

Lincoln, Neb., April 3O.-Gov. Saw
age, who has been an active aspirant
for denomination before the coming
republican state convention, an
nOuces that he has withdrawn from
the race. Up to the time he pardOned
former State Treasurer Joseph Bart
ley from the penitentiary, Gov. Saw
age was accepted as the logical can
didate of his party for a second term.
The adverse criticism which followed
the pardon has been so severe and
persistent the governor has con-
cluded it would be tempting fate to
persist in his candidacy.

army has been making progress in
bringing the insurrectionists under
the authority Of the United States,
The Goodland republic. [volume] (Goodland, Kan.) 1891-1907, 1902-05-02

the long absence Of troops from the
United States in a far distant archi-
pelago has made the officers and men,
in a measure, perhaps, careless of
public sentiment in this country. The
president believes that frmness and
aggressive campaigning can and
should be tempered with mercy. In
the main, the army operating in the
Philippines has used fOrbearance and
patience to an extent that no other
army Of any other nation has ever
exercised. The administration does
not want any part Of the good record
made in the archipelago to be sullied
by excuses or cruelty. The court
martial of Gen. Smith and of Mai.
Waller and Lieut.. Edwards are de
signed to check severity in the islands
and make apparent to the country
and to the army that the govern
ment at Washington, while holding

ton and had believed in expansion,

as had been issued by Gen. Smith

should be discharged in disgrace.
''He admits that he issued the orders
to make Samar a bowling wilder
ness" said Mr.. Sibley, "and to kill
all over ten years of age. Such a
man ought not to be permitted to
stay in the army until the sun goes
down. I hope there is enough cour-
age, patriotism and Christianity at

Mai. Waller Defends Gen. Smith
Manila, April 29.-Maj. IittletOn W.
7. Waller, of the marine corps, was
on the stand Monday in the trial
Of Gen. Smith. -. He testified to re-
ceiving from Gen. Smith the orders
to kill and burn" and render Samar
"a bowling wilderness" previously
referred to in these dispatches. The
natives of Samar, said Mai. Waller,
were more treacherOus and imPlac-
able than the tribesmen of the Sou
dan. Without Gen. Smiths drastic
measures the war there would not
have been ended yet. Gen. Smith
never intended killing women and
children. Corporal Pritchard, of the
Ninth infantry, who took part in
the fight at Candara, testified that he
saw boys Of 10 years Of age, fighting
and sIashing with bOlos.

1T is evident, too, that the operators are
equally under obligation to bring to an
end the state of war, as their duty to the
public, by submitting to arbitration or
conference and going to work on the most
equitable terms which can be made. 1t
is rather peculiar. feature of the Penn

operators to employ miners who hold cer-
tif1cates issued by persons who belong to
the same order as the miners, and who
are in sympathy with them. The law ap-
plies only to the anthracite region.
Meantime, the public want coal, and the
operators say they will neither surrender
nor arbitrate. The strike leaders say
the miners shall not work, no matter how
much they need. work, and that the public
shall not have any coal until the operators
surrender. And there you are! + ~

II only the Widow Martin had not been
waggishly given to nicknames! But there!
The story must be told properly or not at
all.
The widow was jolly and comely and well
fixed besides. She had house and land, stock
and plenishings, not to name money in the
bank and expectations of more whenever the
Lord called II Uncle Marmaduke up higher.
She had married to please him. The late Will
liam Martin had been Uncle Marmaduke's S
chum. Uncle Marmaduke was still master
full, regarding the widow at 35 as slip OF
thing, in nowise to be trusted in the choos-
ing of buggy horse or even husband
She stood in need of both, the old gentle
man admitted. AS to how the needs were
to be supplied he was by no means SO clear
Widow Martin herself had no sort of doubt
Her mind was set upon the bay Almont trot-
ting mare and Joe Copley, who owned the
beast Joe was bachelor, just the Widows
age who since he was 20 had given all his
spare time to the comfort and pleasure OF
an invalid mother. Now that she was dead
he was lost and lonesome beyond words.
Widow Martins heart. a motherly, tender
one, ached for him whenever she looked al
him across the church,, Since he was heI
close neighbor she almost dragged him home
with her to dine and spend Sunday after
moons. Naturally he fell head over ears in
love. Quite as naturally he lacked the cour-
age to tell her so. Instead of speaking out
