It is pretty sure that the stricken

There is great strife between

her appreciation of the boys' work. In
regard to receptions Plattsmouth will
be in it to some extent when the boys

know that they are heartily welcomed,

THE Fourth this year ought to be a
big day throughout the country. Last
year tho Fourth brought a glorious
surprise, but its celebration had to be
impromptu. Much hns happened
during tho last year to make an
American fool proudly patriotic as
well as expansive, says the St. Louis
Globe-Democrat. The heroism of tb
army and navy has been simp!' unsur
pisable. Cuba has been freed and
the work of humnnity carried
throughout its borders. Our flag is
up over new possessions that broaden
the destiny of the nation. It also
waves over tho widening linos of our
devoted and victorious army in the
Philippines. A year so full of na
tional achievement naturally" sug
gests a national holiday of both an
old-fashioned and a new-fashioned
kind. If the Fourth of 1S!)0 fits the
circumstance, and of courso it will,
the day'will be memorable.
ARMY OPERATIONS IN LUZON.
No defeat the Tagals have suffered
falls upon them as crushingly as that
at Bacoor and along the line of the
Zapote river, says the St. Louis Globe
Democrat. This position, a few miles
south of Manila, the insurgents had
held for eeveral years. Before the
war between Spain and the United
States the Spanish troops were re
pulsed with heavy loss at this point.
The Tagals had strengthened the
works and defended them with such
artillery as they could muster. This
was their last hold on the vicinity of
Manila and they struggled to the ut
most to retain it. Their failure is the
mast discouraging blow they have
sustained. Again and again it has
been demonstrated that an army of
5000 Americans can carry any line of
works they can construct. Under all
sorts of conditions, on all kinds of
ground and in all seasons the Tagals
have tried conclusions, and have in
variably been driven from the field.
Their organized armies have been
thoroughly beaten and will naturally
dissolve.
Our present army lines near Manila
reach along the railroad and the Rio
Grande river about thirty-five miles
north of the city; on the east coast of
Morung, a distance of fiteen miles,
and south to Bacoor about the same
distance. Our gunboats control the
Pasig river, the Rio Grande river,
and Laguna de Bay. All the harbors
of the island are accessible to our
fleet. The situation at Manila has
been fully mastered by heroic fight
ing under trying difficulties of cli
mate and ground. Whatever our
army may undertake it is in a position
to hit harder than ever before. The
force concentrated on a given point
can be made overwhelming. With
Manila goes the sovereignty as the
Tagals acknowledge and, having as
certained that Manila is as seeure
against them as is Sua Francisco they
will desert their lost cause and prob
ably without much delay.
MOICK TKHTIMONY.
Tho opinion of a medical officer of
tho army who has been in burvice on
tho staff of General Oti,us to the num
ber of HoldierM that will bo required to
subdue tho Filipinos and hold tho
islands, is valuable as probably reflect
ing the judgment of military men with
whom he ha bren aoci-ited, say tho
Deo. Dr. McQneston, who has juet re
turned from Manila, where tie wan
health officer, says that it will take an
array of from 100,000 to 150,000 tt sub
due and hold tho Philippines. "Our
men simply cannot stand tho clirn itc,"
says tho medical authority, after hav
ing had months of experienco there.
"Fifty por cent of them will be in
capacitated by sickness and the terri
tory overrun will have to be aban
doned." IIo referred to the climatic
conditions during the riiny season,
now on. IIo further states that noth
ing decisivo has been accomplished
f r tho reason that tho Amorican force
is not sufficient.
This is testimony not to bo lightly
regarded, even if it be admitted that
tho estimate of the number of soidiers
that will bo needed to complete the
work of subjugation is too high. There
is no question that tho clim tto is se
vere on our men. There is no official
statement of tho number invalided by
sickness, but it was probably not less
than 3,000 at tho beginning of June, or
nearly double the numbor of the killed
and wounded up to that time. Since
the commencement of tho rainy sea
son doubtless the list of sick hos beon
very materially increased and it would
not be surprising to learn that at pres
ent it numbers from 4,000 to 5,000. The
hard campaigning of the past few
weeks told heavily upon the American
forcei, hundreds of whom were pros
trated by the intenso heat. As to lli-j
statement that nothing drcifeive h s
bees accomplished it is corroborated
by the fact that our army is today
practically defending itself at Manila.
There is reason to believe that the
real condition of affairs in Luzon is
not being reported to Washington, or
that information received by the gov
ernment showing the true state of af
fairs is withheld from the public. At
all events, there is a growing popular
fueling of dissatisfaction with tho
course of ovent-j in the Philippines
which the administration should
heed. After nearly five months, of
fighting with a people regarded as
semi-savage it is humiliating to have
to admit that nothing decisive ha
come of it.

Since the annexation of Hawaii
Frederick W. Job, who was consul
general for that country, occupies an
unique position. Hawaii being now a
part of the United States has no con

can be sent from this country to Hawaii
without being certified by him. The
last congress did not legislate on this
matter or make any provision to cover
the situation and Mr. Job appears to
be in for the work connected with the
place, if nothing else.

l ull Text of the Knurl iii-iit for Iteneflt
of Thoas Intercatrd.
OMAHA, June 22. For the benefit
of the large number of .merchants and
employes affected by the new Nebras
ka female labor law, herewith is print
ed a full text as passed under the ti
tle of H. R. 192, to ko into effect July
1 189:
An act to regulate and limit the
hours of employment of females in
manufacturing, mechanical and mer
cantile establishments, hotels and res
taurants; to provide for its enforce
ment and a penalty for its violation.
Be it enacted by the legislature of
the state of Nebraska:
Section 1. That no female ttfW? be
employed In any manufacturing, me
chanical or mercantile establishment,
hotel or restaurant in this state more
than sixty hours during any one week,
and that ten hours shall constitute a
day's labor. The hours of each day
may be so arranged as to permit the
employment of such females at any
time from 6 o'clock a. ni. to 10 o'clock
p. m., but in no case shail such em
ployment exceod fen hours in any one
day.
Section 2. Every such employer shall
post in a conspicuous place in every
room where such females are employed
a printed notice, statin?: the number
of hours' work required of them each
day of the week, the hours of com
mencing and stopping such work, and
the hours when the time or times al
lowed for dinner or for other meals
begins and end. Printed forms of said
notice shall be furnished by the dep
uty labor comminsioner and the form
of such notice approved by the attor
ney general of this state.
Section 3. Every such employer in
eiich establishment shall provide suit
able seats for the females so employed
and shall permit the use of such seats
by them when they are not necessar
ily engaged in the active duties for
which they are employed.
Section 4. Any employer, overseer,
superintendent or other rgent of any
such employer who shall violate any
of the provisions of this act shall be
fined for each offense in a sum not less
than $20 nor more than $50; and it is
hereby made the duty of the deputy
labor commissioner to enforce the pro
visions of this act; Provided, however,
that nothing in this act shall be con
strued to prevent any other person
from enforcing its provisions.
MAY CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS.
A Sentimoiit Prevalent Tliut May Lead to
Recruiting.
CHICAGO, June 22 A special to
the Record from Indianapolis says:
"W. T. Durbin. colonel f the One
Hundred and Sixty-first Indiana regi
ment, returned today from Washing
ton, where he went to consult the
president about taking his regiment,
recently mustered out of the volunteer
service, to the Philippines. He says
he has been assured by Adjutant Gen
eral Corbin that every request of Gen
eral Otis has been granted as to fur
nishing him with a sufficient number
of men. Notwithstanding this fact,
he said, there seemed to be a senti
ment among federal authorities that
might lead to the recruiting of several
regiments in the United States which
would be sent to General Otis. Three
regiments. Colonel Durbin says, will
certainly be recruited. But for the
first three. General Otis will be al
lowed to select officers who are now
in the Philippine service. After that
officers will be selected by presidential
appointments. Colonel Durbin says
the War department will not ask for
volunteers by states. The president
will appoint all the regimental officers".
No regiment will be taken as a whole,
as that would necessitate taking of
ficers. Companies will not be taken
as companies, but 100 men may be
taken at one time. This plan is al
ready on foot, Colonel Durbin says,
and the formation of further plans in
this direction is hastened.

Univkksity of Nebraska, Lin
coln. June 20. The past week has
been warm and wet in eastern coun
ties and dry in western. The average

inch in central and eastern counties
and was exceedingly heavy in Dodge,
Washington and Burt counties, rang

growth in eastern counties during
the past week. Generally the corn is
free of weeds, and the second cultiva

are becoming somewhat weedy. Pota
toes are growing very well, and are
now generally in bloom. Cherries
