 pine Natives.

Manila, May 10.-An unusual man hunt is in progress In the Sulh islands For several months a Moro bandit named Jikiri, with considerable following has been on a rampage, and the insular gov ernment Is making every effort to run him down.
 The navy recently lent to the authorities a squadron of gunboats to search the numerous small islands of the group, and now another vessel is to be added to assist in the strange chase. Several land attachments have been sent out and General Duvall, who has gone south to inspect Mindanao may take hand in directing operations

The Panama Treaty.

Washington, May 9.-An attempt will be made at the special session of Con- gress to have the Senate reconsider It's action in amending the treaty between the United States and Panama In re- gard to the Panama canal before it was ratified. The amendment is regarded by the republic of Panama practically nullifying the treaty as far as 1t is con cerned. This amendment provided that so far the United States is con cerned no question shall be submitted to arbitration provided for in the treaty, which in any way affects the vital inter- ests of the United States or any interest of the United States in the construction and maintenance of the Panama canal.

DEMOCRATIC DOCTRINE
 BY CLAY OF GEORGIA

Washington, May 9.-(Special.) )-Senator Clay of Georgia announced today a lit- tie democratic doctrine The senator is in favor of free lumber, free hides and in addition Is In favor of cutting about one-third off the sugar duty. The sen ator will make a speech within a few days outlining his position on the tariff question, and it is understood that he will have nothing to say in sympathy with those democrats who are advocating tariff rates in some instances higher than the republicans. Much of Senator C1ay's speech will be devoted to the sugar ques- tion. He considers the schedule even worse than the woolen and cotton sched- ules, and he proposes to show that reduction in the duty will result in
 much cheaper sugar and an increase in consumption that will provide much revenue as the government now obtains.

The republican organization in the Sen ate, led by Senator Aldrich, is still of the opinion that 1t will come off suc- cessfully on the lead schedule vote to- morrow. The vote promises to be close, probably not half dozen either way. The insurgent senators contend that even though they may not have enough votes to modify the lead schedule 1t does not mean that they will be unsuccessful on certain other schedules, several of which they appear confident of amending.
 Senator Aldrich's plea that there is nothing in the republican platform to warrant the assertion that Congress Is in session for reducing the Dingley rates, appears to be having It's effect upon a number of republican senators, who have been inclined to vote for a reduction of duties. What attitude the President will take on this transparent fraud is be- coming mighty interesting question as the time approaches for the bill to be sent him.

Pardon Waits For Man Who

if any man who kills a night rider

fend their homes:and were careful not
to make a mistake and kill any in
nocent person, but simply necessary
defense of then lives, liberty and
poperty, they would not need any
lawyer.

lamation. for 1t is my most serious

ton.

The Government Needs
Money.

There has been no little adverse
criticism by the press of the country
on the proposed increase Of two cents
in the registry fee of letters. On
this important subject the Ohio State
Journal says.
The Post Office Department pro.
posed to increase the charge for
registering letters and packages from
eight to ten cents. 1t is claimed that
the Government is running behind on
the eight cent charge. No doubt OF
that, considering the number of graft
appropriations Congress is making.
In charging two cents additional
for insuring the safe transmission of
posta. parcels we will get money to
pay for many indispensable things.
For instance, there is that 100000
mimicry war expense. By raising
the registry price it will take only
5000 600 pieces of registered matter
to pay this deficit of. Then that
$4,000 appropriated for congress
sional Junket to Europe-it will take
the revenue from 2,5OO,O0 parcels to
pay that expense.
Then take Speaker Cannon's auto
mobile, which a seville Congress paid
tor out OF the public treasury-the
ultimate consumer will only have
to pay on 100000 mail parcels to
liquidate that obligation. There are
similar cases no doubt. all of which
go to show that the people must pay
this extra two cents, for the Govern
ment badly needs the money.
