One Of the final inquiries on the part
Of the Philippine chief before a battle
might be: Is everything in running
order ?

There is danger that Mr. Wanamak-
er’s inability to love his enemies may
sooner or later destroy his usefulness
as a‘Sunday-school teacher.

W’hile wireless telegraphy may util-
ize the air it’s only the wonderful
character of the invention that’s calen-

1ated to take away our breath.

It seems all those counterfeiters

esting to see how much the Court gives
them.

was plenty of time.

Washington, D. C., has forbidden
residents of a fashionable locality
there to dry their week’s washing in
their front yards. This Jel’fersonian
simplicity fad is beginning to be over-
done.

If the Filipinos only would stand
still long enough. there would be no
trouble in whipping them. The coun-
try about Manila and up to. and beyond
the Rio Grande seems to be now effec-
tually cleared of armed insurgents,
but it is questionable how much farther
it will be possible or desirable to con-
tinue the tedious pursuit. Possibly
the punishment already inflicted may
suffice for the destruction of Aguinal-
do’s influence, which is evidently the
main Obstacle now to the restoration
‘of peace. Even if General Otis can
only establish a line of outposts that
will keep the Philippine army from re-
turning to the neighborhood of Manila,
he may have time to get a civil govern-
mentin working order and gradually
to bring the natives back to peace-
ful habits.

operations are being pushed with a

Meantime the military

vigor that. under the difficult con-
ditions, is truly extraordinary.

Legislative bribery is an Offense that
has been practiced doubtless a long
time and in many States. Like some

other crimes it has not proved as dan-
gerous for those who practice it as it
ought to'have done, but there has been
I an awakening of theauthorities at last
and there are likely to be bribery trials
in the courts of three States at least.
The bribery charges in California,
Delaware and Pennsylvania have arisen
in connection with deadlocks over the
election of United States Senators. An
indictment has been found against one
Delaware representative for offering
one Of his colleagues a bribe of $5,000 to
note for Addicks. The Dauphi’p county
grand jury will soon be asked to find in-
dictments against several Pennsylvania
lobbyists for attempted bribery in con-
nection with the late Senatorial dead-
lock at Harrisburg, and bribery
charges are pending in the California
courts arising from a similar'cause.

These prosecutions brought in these
States will test the practical. value of
existing laws against bribery,
victions follow in any cases bribery will
be regarded as a dangerous practice in
the future. If, on the contrary, the
prosecutions for anyv‘re'ason prove fail-
ures, Legislative bribery will be prac-
ticed more openly and shamelessly

zhancver. in the future.

ABUSE Elli GOMEZ.

N.
Called a. Traitor Because of
His American Affiliations.

OLD GlillEIlAL IlllI‘ElIDS HIS POSITION

Favors 3 Period of Axnericnn Con-
trol as the Best Preparation For
Cuban Independence, but Places
No Limit to That Period.

HAVANA, April 29.—The attitude of
General Maximo Gomez toward the “in—
tervening power,” as he calls the Unit—
ed States, causes .a lively controversy

‘ among politicians here and even among

his friends. La Discusion and El Re-
concentrado treat him as an ally of the
United States and refer tophim as a.
“traitor to the cause of Cuban inde-
pendence.” La Lucha and La Patria
view him as -a consistent leader of the
Cuban people. From time to time
copies of his private correspondence
embodying allusions to public business
are supplied to the press and afford ma-
terial for speculation and argument re-
garding his real position and purpose.
For instance, one of the papers pub-
lishes extracts from a letter Gomez re—
cently wrote to Rodolfo Menendez of
Mer’ida, Yucatan, in the course Of which
he says:

"‘My energy, my strength and all my
prestige I am giving here in my devo-
tion to the cause of independence for
this heroic country, and I devote myself
especially to the labor in concert with
the provisional government which at~
tends and serves the country.”

A member of his household has given
the following explanation of the posi-
tion of Gomez: '

“Of course General Gomez continues
to favor, as he always has favored, ulti‘~
mate independence, but he considers a
period of American icontrol as a logical
preparation for that independence.
Therefore he wishes to co—operate with
the Americans without reservation in
disbanding the troops and in quieting
and reconstructing the country. He can-
not tell how long this period should be,
but he would probably have issued a
statement declaring his formal support
of the American provisional control if
the recent severe attacks upon his views
had not been made.”

The report that General Gomez is
drawing up a proposal for the organiza—
tion of Cuban militia is not verified by
him. ’ -

McKinley In Ne‘v York.

NEW YORK, April 29.—President
McKinley arrived in this city from
Philadelphia last night and is now at
the Hotel Manhattan. His visit is en-
tirely unofficial, and he does not expect
to appear publicly while here. It is
probable that he will remain over Sun—
day. The president’s party, including
Mrs. McKinley, Secretary Gage, Secre-
tary and Mrs. Long, Dr. P. M. Rixey,
Captain S. S. Saxton, George B. Cortel-
you, acting secretary to the president,
and Rudolph Foster, stenographer, left
Philadelphia at 2:30 o’clock yesterday
afternoon.
Grant traveled with them.

Fatal Bandit Hunt.

SANTIAGO, Cuba, April 29.—In a
fight at Palma Soriano, northwest of
Santiago, between thegendannery and
a band of outlaws one bandit was killed
and one captured. The chief of the
gendurmery reports that the captured
outlaw was afterward killed while he
was trying to make his escape, but it
is suspected here that this explanation
really covers an intentional killing.
Great enthusiasm has been caused by
the report that the projected railway
from Santiago to Havana through the
center of the island will soon be built.

Chamber of Commerce In Porto Rico.

SAN JUAN, Porto Rico, April 29.—
Mr. Edwin Arnold, who has arrived
here by the steamer Philadelphia, an—
nounces the immediate establishment
here of the American Colonial bank,
which has been organized by Muller,
Schall & Co. of New York in conjunc—
tion with Porto Ricans. General Guy V.
Henry has issued a call for a commer-
cial convention to meet here on May 10
to organize a chamber of commerce and
for the promotion of harmony and com-
merce between Americans, Porto Ricans
and Spaniards.

Mrs. George Acquitted.

CANTON, 0., April 29.——Mrs. Annie
E. George wasyesterday acquitted of
the murder of George D. Saxton, broth—
er of Mrs. McKinley. The jury, which
had retired at noon Thursday, returned
to the courtroom at 10:45 o’clock yester-
day morning and rendered a verdict of
not guilty of the charge of murder in
the first degree, the charge upon which
Mrs. George was tried. The verdict was
received with demonstrations of ap-
plause by the crowd which had gather—
ed and filled the courtroom.

Sewer Pipe Trust Sure. .

AKRON, 0., April 29.—'1‘he big sewer
pipe combination which has been on the
verge of formation for the past three
months is now announced as a certain-
ty. The capitalization will be $25,000,000,
$20,000,000 of which will be issued, half
in preferred and half in common stock.
The offices of the trust will be located
either in Pittsburg or Cleveland, and
the president will probably be 0. C. Bar-
ber, who is president of‘ the Diamond
Match company.

Promotion For anston.
WASHINGTON, April 29.—It was gaid
at the war department that Colonel
Frederick Funston of .the Twentieth
Kansas volunteers would surely be ap-

'pointed a. brigadier general of volun-

teers. A formal recommendation that he
be promoted must first be obtained from
Major General Otis, who will be asked
to submit it if he does not do so of his
own volition.

Anxious to Hear Maude Adams.

NEW YORK, April 29.—Maude Adams
opens up at the Empire theater, this
city, in “Romeo and Juliet” for two
weeks beginning May 8. Yesterday was
the first day of the sale of seats, and
up to 4 o’clock there had been taken in
over $11,000 at the box office. This is
said to be the largest amount ever
taken in New York city for advance
sales.

thcvalue of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known to be
medicinally laxative and presenting

dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
.manently. Its perfect freedom from
every objectionable quality and sub-
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the'ideal
laxative.
