NEW LAW NEEDED
TO SPEED, WORK
OF REBUILDING
Commissioners Urge Special
Session of Lenjslature
to Meet Riot
Emergency.
The Board of County Commis
sioners,"at a special meeting yester
day afternoon, passed a resolution
calling upon Governor McKelvie tQ
convene a special session of the Ne
braska legislature at once to pro
vide means of raising the money to
rebuild the Douglas county court
house, destroyed by the mob Sunday
night. , J
Chief Deputy Attorney General
C. F. Laverty met with the county
board and County Attorne Shotwell
and all agreed that under the law
the money cannot be provided with
out a special act of the legislature.
May Need $1,000;000.
"We will probably ask for permis
sion to issue bonds to the extent of
at least $750,000," said County Com
missioner Compton. "We will have
the estimate of Architect John Lat
enser by the time the special session
is convened and know what sum will
be required. We may need $1,000,
000." .
The county commissioners will
proceed at once to make such re
pairs as are absolutely essential to
the use of what remains of the build
ing The scores of big windows
which were broken wil' be replaced
at once.
May Delay Repairs.
Further repairs, however, county
commissioners think,, will have to
wati upon an act of the legislature
and the regular course of advertis
ing and selling bonds. After bonds
are sold bids must be asked for, ad
vertised fcr 30 days and awarded
If the ordinary legal procedure is
followed repairs could not start in
less than two and a half months.
County Attorney ShotelI will
ge an opinion as to whether, in
case of emergency, the ordinary
legal procedure may be hurried to
provide funds for rebuilding the
court house.
Officers Handicapped.
The county commissioners yes
terday made preliminary plans for
starting up the business of the of
fices of the county and city treas
urer, county clerk, county assessor,
register of deeds and sheriff which
are most urgent.
These offices will have to start
anew, most of their records being
either entirely destroyed or mere
charred remains.
Will Open Courts. I
"We expect to establish some of
these offices in the court rooms,"
said Commissioner Compton. "In
that case the work of the courts will
have to be curtailed somewhat, but
by using half the court rooms on
full time we believe the emergency
can be bridged over."
A partition may be put across the
large criminal court room and one
of the burned-out offices housed
there.
Six other court rooms are avail
able with large jury rooms which
can be used in the present emerg
ency. Several of these rooms are
now being used for Salvation Army
drive headquarters.

guards was driven to the Central
High School building yesterday
afternoon and loaded up with 587
Springfield rifles, model 1898, and 60

of authority from the War depart
ment in Washington, issued the
order. The rifles were those used
by the cadet regiment at this school.
The cartridges were stored on the
top floor of the school building,
where students seldom ventured.

THE FLAVOR LASTS
SO DOES THE PRICE!
'
Pershing sailed for the Philippines,,
reaching Manila November 28, 1899.
Meantime, on May 12, 1899, he had
been honorably discharged from the
volunteers, only to be reappointed
again June 6 of the same year, this
time as a major also and' as assist
ant adjutant general.
He did not remain long in Manila.
He was ordered from there to Min
danao. Four hundred miles south
ward from Manila lies Mindanao,
one of the largest of the Philippine
archipelago, and in 1899, wild, semi
mysterious. Inhabited ' by savage
Mahotr.edans Moros occupation
and investment of the island meant
the vanquishment and subjugation of
tribes than whom none less tracable
ever existed.
Goes to Mindanao.
Black Jack landed in Mindanao
at Zamboanga, the administrative
seat of the government, and located
on the eastern extremity of the is
land December 24, 1899, and from
that time until early in 1902 he filled
different administrative offices. He
was in turn adjutant general of the
district of Zamboanga, the adjutant
general of the department of Min
danao, engineer officer, signal offi
cer, ordnance officer and collector
of customs at Zamboanga.
Meantime he had been promoted
in the regular service. February 2,
1901, he was made captain of the
First cavalry. June of the same
year he was honorably discharged
from the volunteers and then, two
months later, on August 20, trans
'ferred from the First cavalry to the
15th cavalry.
Soon afterwards he entered upon
those achievements of his life which
brought him to world-wide fame.
Part of the story was told to me by
that same General Summer, who
commanded the Second brigade of
the unmounted cavalry division in
Cuba. .
First of all, though, that one may
understand what follows, one must
have an idea of conditions as they
existed in Mindanao when our
troops first went to the Philippines,
Spain, for centuries, had tried to oc
cupy and invest Mindanao without
success. The Moros, led by their
dattos, or chiefs, could not be con
quered and subjugated. Only on
the coast was Spain able to secure a
footing and that most untenable.
Pershing's Own Story.
Here is what Pershing himself
said of the Moro an excerpt from
one of his reports:
"Accustomed for centuries to re
gard human life, including his own,
as of no value, it is no easy matter
to change the habits of the Moro.
When a friendly Moro farm laborer
kills his white employer for a re
volver and at once delivers himself
up and confesses his crime, knowing
that death will be the punishment,
a problem in criminology is present
ed that is difficult to solve."
"Pershing," General Sumner told
me. "proved his worth from the
moment of his arrival in Mindanao.
Instinctively, it seemed, he knew
how to deal with the Moros.
"He became an intelligence of
ficer and, as such, at great per
sonal risk, attended only by an in
terpreter, made many expeditions
into the very heart of the hostile
country. As I look back on Persh
ing's work I doubt if another could
have accomplished it.
Awed the Natives.
"Pershing's presence awed the na
tives. They are small men a small
people. The " Spaniards had been
small small and dark, swarthy.
Pershinar anoeared to the natives as
a god. Tail, of commanding'-figure,
and with a heavy shock of light
hair, they could hardly bring them
selves to believe he was human.
A god he was to the natives. And
his fearlessness they could not un
derstand it.
Pershing made friends of many of
the dattos. He learned their lan
guage not so he could speak it,
perhaps, but so he could understand
what the natives said. It has been
said that the natives made him a
datto. I do not know. But they
did learn to respect him and the
friendships he made among the dat
tos played a tremendous part in
the subjugation of the Moros.
April 16, 1902, found Pershing at
Lligan, on the northerly coast of
Mindanao, not far from Lake
Lanao. On that day he received,
by cable from Manila, a copy of a
proclamation serving notice on the
Moros that resistance to the au
thority of the United States would
not be tolerated. Pershing was
ordered to distribute copies of this
proclamation. What ensued is the
history of the vanquishment and
subjugation of the Moros of Min
danao a history which centers
about Black Pershing.
In Heart of Hostiles.
Acting under further orders from
Brig.-Gen. George W. Davis, com
manding the Seventh brigade, to
which he was attached, Captain
Pershing made arrangements to go
himself into the Lake Lanao re
gion the very heart of the hostile
stronghold that he might confer
personally with certain of the tribal
leaders and perhaps win them by
diplomacy.
Such a mission, of course, was
extremely hazardous, and might
mean death. In all Mindanao the
Moros of Lake Lanao were the
most savage. For years, entrench
ed in their cottas, or fortresses,
perched a-top the precipitous
heights that wall in the crater
Yanti reached Marahui safely in the
evening of April 27. The village
was in an uproar. Rumor had it
that American troops were even then
marching on the place, bent on its
destruction and the massacre of its
inhabitants, and many of the natives
were fleeing with their women and
children to the cottas on the heights
above the lake. Pershing called the
leading dattos and sultans before
him and sought to pacify them.
Again he assured the tribal leaders
that the United States would not
molest those who were friendly. At
the same time, though, he informed
the leaders that the lake region was
lake a lake formed of an extinct ! to be explored and that interference
volcano these Moros had success
fully repulsed the Spanish. They
believed their fortresses impregna
ble; that from the vantage of their
heights, whence their lantaca can
non and guns commanded all ap
proaches through v.the jungle, the
Americans would be repulsed as
easily as the Spanish.
Pershing, first of all, dispatched
his messengers. Records of the
War department show to whom
these native runners were sent
"My' friend, Ahmai-Manibilang,
and to the sultan of Madaya;" "My
friends, the Sultans of Baclod, Mor
os, Maranto, Dansalan and Gium
ba" dattos and sultans with whom
Pershing had often talked, endeav
oring to convince them of the fu
tility of resisting the United
States how such resistance must
mean the the destruction of their
rancherias and the loss of many,
many Moro lives.
Goes With Datto.
The runners departed, Pershing,
Ltoo, left Lligan, accompanied, as he
writes in a report to the War depart
ment, by "My very old friend Yanti,
datto of Marasui." Pershing and

Workers in Campaign
for Salvation Army
Held in Court House
G. W. Williams, manager of the
local Salvation Army drive, and
Miss Edith Barker, court house em
ployee, were marooned in the Sal
vation Army headquarters, third
floor of the courthouse, when the
mob attacked the building Sunday
night.
"We were working late," said Mr.
Williams, "and I didn't think the
mob wouldd actually attack the
building. When they battered in
the doors and shots rang out in
the corridor it was too late to es
cape. We tried to go down the
stairs, but the shots were so thick
we were afraid to proceed.
Bullets crashed through the win
dows. I telephoned to some police
captain telling him our predicament.
'You'll have to call the fire de
partment,' was the only answer he
would give me."
They finally came down the
stairs, callin gout to the men in
the lower corridor and telling who
they were. They were allowed to
escape.
Kansas Robbers Kill
Sheriff and Escape
Through Nebraska
Guide Rock, Neb., Sept. 29. Au
troities at Guide Rock were noti
fied that a bank at Smith Center,
Kan., had been robbed some time
yesterday, and in a fight with the
robbers, Sheriff O. H. Munger had
been killed and another man
wounded. Kansas officers asked
the constable at this place to se
cure help and guard the bridge
across the river near the state line,
as it was believed the robbers,' two
or three in number, were headed
this way.
A message tonight from Superior,
Neb., said an automobile answer
ing" the description of the one in
which the robbers escaped from
Smith Center, had been found near
there badly wrecked. Five Smith
County, Kansas officers the mes
sage said, were trailing the robbers.

Henry James Stuart, 61, a carpen

longer."

Warns the Natives.
' Later, in May, 1902, while still at
Lligan, General Davis engaged in
battle with the Moros and a letter
from Pershing under date of May
14, 1902, gives an insight into Per
shing's work. He wrote:
"To my friend, Anmai-Manjbalang
of Madaya.
"I take pleasure in advising you
that I have received a telegram
from General Davis that he is
at present with the troops on
the banks of the lake at Bayan.
In a flight at Bayan the sultan and
Raja Muda were killed, also the sul
tan of Pandupatan and all the prin
cipal men. The general says you
and your people should not be
frightened, as he does not intend
to disturb the Moros on the north
ern part of the lake.
"He wishes that all dattos and
principal men of Bavabao come to
see him, and I wish to know when
they will be ready to go with me
acrosi the lake. The general wishes
to be at peace with you all.
"Please transmit this notice to
your people that they may under
stand and not be alarmed. Always
your friend,
(Signed) "JOHN J. PERSHING,
"Captain, 15th Cavalry."
Moro Sends Answer.
This reply was received:
"Letter from your friend, Ahmai
Manibilang, to my friend, Captain
Pershing, Lliga.
"I am very glad to know that the
general has reached Bayan and has
killed many dattos who were op
posed to him. When the general
has dispatched all the bad Moros
over there, then you can go from
there with your friends, the dattos
of Bayabao, from here. Ahmai-San-gacalais
not here, and it is difficult
to reach Madumba."
So it was by diplomacy and by
force of arms the United States
pressed the occupation and invest
ment of Mindanao.
