In 1899 Otis' victory over Aguinaldo was recorded at Wash ington 12 hours after it occared, although it was 11,000 miles away. The century just passing will be remembered in history aa being the period of moie great and useful in ventions than any of its predecessors since the beginning of the Christian era. Man has learned to talk around the world upon the lightnings Hash, and to travel upon the wings of the wind. Distance has been annihilat ed and a pleasure trip of sixty days takes you around tha globe. The W<»rld-Herald says that Sena tor Allen showed himself capable oi raising above party when ho voted for the ratification of the treaty ot peace, llight it is. and the next tbiDg iu order should be for the party to get up a little so that it would be honest enough to uphold measures that they know is right. If Mr. Allen was not so bitter against the protective policy of our country he would doubtless, under the present circumstances receive enough repub lican votes to re-elect him. Senator Allen, whose tenure of office will soon expire has proven himself to be a statesman and a gentleman, and one worthy the con fidence bestowed upon him by his party when he was elected. Mr. Allen, though a democrat, elected by a populist legislature, has demon strated the fact that when the honor of his country was at stake lie would be found voting to uphold that hon or whither the administration was of his political complexion or not. He is a man who possesses the strength of his convictions and will be re membered in history as one of the senators who was not elected in vain. The news was cabled from Manila to the w ar department at Washing ton on the 14 of Feb. that Iloilo, capital of the island of Panay one of the group of the Philippines had been taken by the Potted States for ces under Brigadier General Miller. Not a single American so far as known was killed, but the loss to the insurgents was heavy. The Dalit#' provoked mi ssMult slid refused to surrender hut tied after resisting.

But when the order was fully carried out, and the Spanish fleet was at the bottom of Manila Bay, Deweys task hud only begun and the responsibili ties of the government lie represented was then launched upon a turbulent sen. But had Dewey sailed away and left the Spanish and Filipinos to continue their bloody strife would the United States been justified. This war was entered into for hu inanities sake, and to annihilate the greatest factor of self defense the, at least, semi civilized party possessed ard then abandon them to tlie blood thirsty savage Malay’s, whose only principle is eussedness and only wish to destroy their oppressors, would have eondetned us before the world. The fortunes of war had delivered into our hands the harbor of the me tropolis of the Philippines, and that humanity which we boasted of, compelled us to no longer recog nize the authority of the Spanish to continue his rule of horor as he had been for 387 years, neither could we place the saepter ia the hands of an uneducated barbarous people who wree not even capable of governing themselves much less the mixed pop ulace inhabiting these islands. By conquest we had the sovereignty of the archipcligo. Humanities dicta tions would not allow them to bo turned over to either party. Selfish greed and averice would have caused their re-conquest by some other pow er very quickly after our withdrawal. Therefore for the sake of that liberty we ho delight to hold up to the world coupled with enough selfishness to, protect and foster our own interests, it would seem to be a travesty on common sense for men to call the present state of affairs at Manila, an “unholy war.” .1—W—»W » Ml —I j m cough i n§s on | Yea have used all I sorts of cough reme dies but it does not j y'.’M; it is too deep jsrJ:. ft may wear < r e, but ble to | produce k; grippe, ! pneumonia or a seri \ ous throat affection, j You need something [that will give you j strength and build jup the body.
