The longer these senilorial lights continue the inure it occurs to the people that we should elect IT. S senators by popular vote. There might not be so much wealth in our “llouse of Lords'' but there would be as many statesmen.

The Dmglev hill, or as the Demo Cliits called i' a Chinese wall, is prov .g i ri-i ml maker in the way , of getting in foreign wealth. The president struck the key note in General Gomez's case when he sent Commissioner Porter us an envoy to reason with the old man, and at the same time had General Brooks invite him to Havana to as sist in the work of reeonstrue Ion. The old patriot at once discovered that the presidents offer was a very liberal one, and was satisfactory to biin, although he had refused it wrh scorn before be was asked to accept an official position. W. J. Bryan says tbe peace treaty should be ratified at once and the disposition of the Philippines attend ed to afterwurds. Billy is right. He is too much of au American to wisii to belittle this government in the eyes of the world by rejecting the treaty, but issues arc mighty scarce with his party, and of course he wishes to preserve ouo for 1900 So he would postpone annexation of the islands to do service in the uext presidential campaign.

A Hoi g Kong dispatch says: ‘•the iebel forces have been driven buck ten miles and that their losses are estimated at 1,9U0 killed. During tlie engagement with the land forces the United States war slops under'orders of Adtneral Dewey shelled a train loaded with insur gents and most effectually shelled the entire lino of rebel trenches. A force of Filipinos eousertrated :n Paco Church where they made a stand in the upper storries. In the fuee of u terrific faseladc the church was entered try the Americans, sat urated with coal oil and set on fire.

For ome days t’enor \ ii i |o v. itij ot.n r Filipinos, who formed a junta have been at Wash ingtou and is charged with having communicated with Agumaldo, in fi rnung him of the date upon which the senate would vole upon the peace treaty measure. The fact is new pretty well established that this in f< rmalioi was designed us a signal for hostilities, the Filipinos Imping thereby to iutluance the vote of the U. S. senate against the treaty. It had the oposite effect, however, as after the news of the attack and its awful consequences had been receiv ed at Washington, two or three of the senators who were to vote against the tui’u ure voted for it, and thus it was ratified by the necessary two thirds majority with but a single vote to spare. The vote on the treaty stands: Yeas !j1 , Nay * 27. Both senators Allen and Thurston from Nebraska are found in the yea column. Orders have gone out from Wash ington for general Otis and Admeral D«*wey to use their own judgement and to crush Aguinaido if necessary.
