NO ONE doubts but that Mr. Fox is
perfectly capable of filling the office of
city clerk, but there are others who
could fill the position just as accept
ably who have not already had it for
three terms. Why not give some one
else a chance? '

CONDITIONS IN TBE PHILIPPINES
Captain J. H. Culver of the Thirty-
second United States volunteers, who
recently returned to this country to
recuperate from the effects of adislo
cation of the hip bones, caused by a
fall from a horse, was in Lincoln yes
terday enroute to his home in Milford
Speaking to a correspondent of the
Omaha Bee in regard to the conditions
in the Philippine islands. Captain
Culver said that the insurgents are
being made to believe that their inde
pendence will be granted after the fall
election in this country. He said the
various tribes on the islands were al
ready hostile towards each other and
that several hundred of the Macca
bebes have taken up arms against the
Tagalos or insurgents.
"We have the larger bodies of in
eurgents well dispersed," said Captain
Culver, "and the natives are now di
vided into small bands. They ecatter
and then concentrate into bands of 200
or 300 and attack our men in a manner
quite similar to the Indian warfare on
the plains in this country years ago.
In private dispatches' and proclama
tions that we have captured the in
surgent are instructed to scatter and
annoy the enemy until after the fall
election in the states, when their
friends will be elected. And besides.
they have extracts from Bryan's
speeches in Tagalo language, together
with their own comment. They have
no hope for securing the independence
asked for. except by the election of
Bryan. A few days before I left we
captured insurgent officers and the
first thing they said was: 'Is Bryan
going to be elected.' They all know
Bryan's name as well as Aguinaldo'e.
'When the insurrection first began
several tribes joined with the Tagalos
on the representation of the latter that
the American soldiers would help them
in their revenge against Spain. They
have since withdrawn from the insur
rection and we sow have seven com
panies of Maccabebes organized as
corps of scouts. They even asked for
the privilege of fightiug the Tagalos.
There Is no doubt that the insurrection
is held up by the encouragement re
ceived from the United State?. With
very few exceptions, throughout the
Tagalo provinces, the business men
are petitioning for our troops to be
garrisoned in their towns for their
own protection and for the protection
of commercial Interests In general.

"I think that with the exercise of
territorial government, with the
United States affording protection to
life and to commerce, the Philippine
islands will make a very wealthy and
prosperous country. Everywhere they
are welcoming American schools.many
of which are taught by our soldiers."
As to the effect of a republican vic
tory at the next fall election, Captain
Culver said:
"So far as any organization i3 con
cerned they will certainly lay down
their arms if they 6ee the present ad
ministration is to be continued, while
on the other hand, if Bryan is elected
there will be trouble throughout the
islands and thd insurgents will have
trouble among themselves. In the
event of his election, each people of
any considerable number would assume
to have a government of its own."
"It is very noticeable," continued
Captain Culver, "that the more intel
ligent peoole on the inlands,! mean the
natives, of course, feel the need of a
uniform language. While no tribe
will accept the language of another
tribe, they are, in most cases, willing
to compromise on English. "

Some Important KiperimenU.
Aseiiesof very interesting experi
mentsarebelngicarried on by W. H. C.
Moore, of the department of geology
of the University of Nebraska, and
Mr. Mania, who is interested in the
Nebraska quarry industry. The ob
ject of these experiments is to find out
whether a commercial cement can be
manufacture 1 from Nebraska rocks.
The experiments include the making
of cement from the lime rocks that
are found in the southwestern part of
the state acd the comparison of the
article with cement that is successfully
made for commercial u?es. Flatter
ing results have been obtained by this
investigation in the laboratory. A
cement has been made from native
rock that compares favorably with
the cement that is on the market. The
question yet remains to be solved as to
whether this product can be manufac
tured profitably in large quantities.
