THE PROCLAMATION.
Tbe proclamation which the Philip
pine commUsioners have addressed
to the Filipino people is a noble
Btate paper. It breathes a sririt of
truth, sincerity,, magnanimity and
firmness. Its statements of facts can
not be challenged, and its logic is
unanswerable.
"And why these hostilities?" it
asks. "What do the best Filipinos
desire? Can it be more than the
United States is ready to give?
They are patriots and want liberty,
it is said. The commission emphat
ically asserts that the United States
is not only willing but anxious to
establish in the Philippine islands an
enlightened system of government,
under whbh the Philippine people
may enjoy the largest measure of
home rule and ample liberty conso
nant with the supreme ends of
government and compatible with
those obligations which tbe United
States has assumed toward the civil
ized nations of the world."
It may be said in reply that the
Filipinos want theoretical independ
ence, but that is mere dreaming, and
would substitute the shadow for the
substance of liberty. Theoretical in
dependence and complete sovereign
ty are by nature denied to the
Filipino people. They lack the
progress, the knowledge, the training
and the conceptions which are the
price of complete national sovereign
ty. And they lack the power to
maintain it.
Under the benign protection of
the United Slates there will come to
the Philippines progress, education,
enlightenment, protection in civil and
property rights, home rule, freedom
of conscience and religion, diminish
ing burdens of taxation, and increas
ing prosperity. Who can doubt it?
Under the autocratic rule of
Aguinaldo would come confusion,
tyianny, appeal to foreign interven
tion, and probably the partition of
the islands between opposing powers.
Who can doubt that? What crotchet
lias entered the minds of men who
go on insisting that injustice and
tyranny stalk under the stars and
stripes, and that the adventurous
and barbaric banner of Aguinajdo is
the Irue emblem of human liberty?
Spokesman-Review.
The advance in wages in cotton
mills is merely a reaction of the im
proved condition of the country.
The prosperity which has been
promised for so many years seems
to have materialized at last. The
advancement of wages in the cotton
industry comes at a time when nearly
all the industries of the country are
responding to the larger employment
of labor. The woolen industry seems
practically alone, for the depression
that has been dissipated in other
industries still clings to this industry.
Twould not be unreasonable to assume
that the woolen industry can long
remain an exception to other in
dustries ; there are already indications
which point to "a revival of trade in
woolen goods. Still it may be some
time before the industrv finds steady
and increased employment which
will permit of any increase in wages.
Tue country, however, is headed
toward a long period of prosperity,
from which labor will benefit as
much as, if not more than, capital.
Story of a Slave.
Te be bound hand and loot . for years
by the chains of disease is the wotet
form of slavery. Geo. D. Williams, of
Manchester, Mich., tells how such a
slave was made free. He says: "My
wife has been so helpless for five years
that eha could tint tain over in ted
alone. After using two bottles of Elec
tric Bitter', ehe is wonderfully im
proved and able to do her own work."
This supreme remedy for female dis
eases quickly 'cures nervousness, sleep
leesness, melancholy, headache, back
ache, fainting and dizzy spells. This
miracle working medicine is a godsend
to weak, sickly, ran down people. Every
bottle guaranteed. Only 50 cents. Sold
by Blakeley and Houghton, draggiete. 6
