1 V-A Editor Statesman:' T - So much has4een written about the ' water cure' practiced in a few cases by a portion of our army in the. Philippjne. Islands, on the insurgents, that many readers are desirous of knowing what t lie treatment really is, and whether it has any. relation to hydropathy, 'as (me of the many ''pathies''nsed throughout the land in the cure of maladies incident to the human family. The testimony before the Senate committee of investigation was to the tflVet that the "cure" was extremely crueL The operation in one. case was as follows : The man was stripped to the waisL ljis hands were tied behind him, and he was tnade to stand under a tank that held about one hun dred gallons of water. Hiss mouth was plac itd directly trader the, faucet and held open - ko as to eotnpfl him to swallow the water that was allowed toT escape from; thei tank. A surgeon was conveniently near. Over the vic- tun stood an interpreter, who repeated one "word which seemedto be the) native equivalent of 'confess.'-- .When at last the man agreed to tell what he knew, he was released. On his refusing to give the required information the "eure'', was administered again. ' This time .the man was not stripped, but was taken back to the building, and the. water, brought in a five-gallon - can;, one end of a syringe was placed hi it And the other in the man' mouth. As he still refused to answer) second syringe - was brought and one end 'or it placed jn the;. Vnah's'nose.'! lie' still refused,'andi a handful pOait "'was;put in ith&Cwatery j Thte;had,thi dkirel! ieffect.' The "witness "said 'tlie f ietini fctriigglf.dt fiercely "whil undergoing, the cure, and his eyes were bloodshot hut thatithe next day when he saw him he perceived no ill ef fects f the "dose' received. ; A, returned private soldier, though not be fore the ' Senate committee relates what he saw of -the water "cure in the island of Samar. If the native refused to give the information - required, his hands were tied behind his back I -ahd he . was pinned;1 face upward, on the What It Is and The History of the ImWmah Pratt ice ground. The neck of , a broken bottle was I ing the accused in criminal cases, to the mani fest advantage the common law. ;The Jaw. of Franee (says Sir John), in offenses criminal, whereupon death depend eth, is not content to convict the party ac cused . by witness jpt by; the testimony, of false persons innocent blood should be con- 1 . i . -r . . . 1 ' I iL a j uemneu. jui inai law emxracm ntiucr iu iur oent such offenders with racking, until they 1emselve:.e6nfess their own fault, rather than by the deposition of witnesses, 'which many times! through the wicked affections,' and sometimes by the subornation of evil men, are irived to perjury. Upon this, and such like warnings, offenders and suspected persons are in that kingdom afflicted with so many kinds of torture, that my pen aVorfeth. to' put themiii writing. For some are stretched out upon a 'horse in sueh manner that their sinews break and their veins gush out streams of blodU. ) A gain I others have many great weights hanged 'at their feet, whereby their limbs and joints are dissolved and unloosed. Some also have their mouths so long gagged open tilFsufeh ah abundance of water be pour ed in tlut-their belly, swelleth like a hill, to the intent that then the belly lieing pierced with some boring Instrument the water. may issue and spout out thereat, and at the mouth like a stream, not much unlike a whale, which, when he hath supped' up and swallowed down a great juantity of sea water, with herrings and other' small fishes',, glisheth out the same water again as high as the: top of a pine tree. My pen is both weary and ashamed to re hearse theoutrageousness of torments devised in this behalf, for the number would . ifill a small volume.' ' But who is ' so hardhearted, who being once released out of so cruel a tor ture, thou gh he be innoeent and faultless, wotild'not yet rather accijse Tiimseif of all kinds . of offenses than again, to commit him self to theintolerable, cruelty of the torment once tried, ,, and had not rather die at once - (seeing that death is the end of all miseries') than so often to be, killed, and to sustain so many hellish furies more painful than 'death ' D. W. C. t- forced into his mouth, and water poured in, sometimes to ithe amount of several gallons, which swelled the native's body to twice or three times the natural size. Then he was rolled on the ground and the water got .out, and the process was repeated. The native, of course, resisted, and the soldiers rubbed the broken bottle-neck across his mouth, lacerat ing the flesh and breaking the teeth and leav--ing the man's, face covered with blood. After.' th water euro was over the prisoner was gen-, erally shot. . ; " ' These severities were inflicted as a deserved punishment for the horrible barbarities prac ticed upon oar wounded soldiers and prison ers taken , by . the insurgent Filipinos, and . while they are not justifiable by the laws of honorable and civilized warfare, yet we should be careful not to judge our soldiers too harsh ly for the disposition to retaliate upon the treacherous . and barbarous wretches against whom they are fighting, for the unheard-of cruelties practiced. by the latter. : The-'water cure is not an American in vention, but it was found in use in the Philip pine Islands, and our soldiers probably adopt ed it as an efficient remedy. It was earried there by the Spanish'conquerors, and is a sys tem of forture devised by the so-called "Lat in" races, having been ised Jn Fraricey and probably in Spain, hundreds of years ago. . Of this fact wehave evidence in writings of Sir John -Fortescue,-once -chief, justice to Henry VI.,of England; about the middle of the fif :eenthcentury; During he civil wars in Eng-1 landj between tha Ifouses! of York and , Lan caster, he traveled in France as " tutor4 1 ( Prince; Edward, 'son of lenrjrVI.-- In orderr to instruct the young prince in the knowledge! pf the laws of the kingdom' over which he might one day be called to reign, he wrote a little treatise (well known) on the Praise of the Laws of England. In one chapter he in stitutes a comparison between the civil law (at that time the law of France) and the com mon law of England as to the manner of try- .a-X V It's ' V-'- - -" -'W-'-'-'- V w .

How we!l ,' the Republican pSan of brovldlns; revenue ha succeeded ma y be seen by ref errlns; For the fiscal ear; 1S81, under te McKlnley tariff, the. receipt from cut toms amounted to $219,5:2, 205. ' f ; tariff, the customs receipts fell off to $152,153,617. decrease of $67.363,SS8. Tr 1900.

' This i rate would not be , protective to "the wool arrower of Oreaon. or to the wool manufacturer .of CorVnectlcut.-' ; Both would, find' that ' the , settlor . price ' of their product must be lowered to meet th cheaper wools ami cheaper fabrics oi. oumflt s where the labor cost of production t k-sst P0 per cent less titan Irv the United State.

A. much larger proportion than now would1' go out of the country to pay. for foreign products, agricultural ' and manufactured that a.r now grown and- fabricated by our own people. 8uch would Inevitably be the practical results of the adoption oi the tariff for revenue only program promulgated in the Oregon Democratic platform for 1902.
