FRIDAY. JUNE 2, 1869.
W. J. BRYAN is the only man this country ever produced with no business other than being a candidate for the presidency.
THE Reina Mercedes is so badly shat tered that she will be of little value to our navy, except for parade duty Hut she never was of much more value than this to Spain, even in her prime
THE Democratic organ of Parke county states that it doesn't care what platform the Democratic party adopts just so Bryan is nominated. The Dem ocratic organ ofaParke county and Mr. Bryan entertain similar views.
THERE are now twenty-one people employed in connection with the Crawfordsville postoffice. Twenty years ago two people did all the work with ease. Crawfordsville seems to have grown some and she hasn't had any boom either.
CAPT. ALLEN, the leading Democrat of Clinton county, discussing the Phil ippine question sayt: "We ought not to discuss whether McKinley is right or wrong, but actiDg solely on the knowledge that this country is at war it is our duty to declare in favor of conquering our foes first and discussing what shall be done with the Philippines afterward."
THE civil service order which has been so long deferred by more important matters, has been issued by President McKinley. It excepts something like four thousand positions from the civil service rules—positions which every member of the cabinet agrees should not be under those rules. It does npt except the employes of the government printing office.
ACCORDING to a bulletin issued by the peace congress at The Hague, "Provisional proposals for mediation and arbitration have been submitted by the representatives of Russia, Great Britain, and the United States." The United States representatives, however, have not yet submitted the draft of there proposal as here stated, but will do BO later i.i the week. The powers are now getting down to a point where they will be compelled to conceal their reaLsentiments in courteous and diplomatic language.
PBESIDENT MCKINI-EV instructed General Otis to tell the representatives of Aguinaldo, when they left his line, after their recent stay of several dayB, in Manila, conferring with the American commissioners, that neither they nor Bny other sent by the Filipinos would be again admitted to our lines, unless they came authorized to make an unconditional surrender. This means business and, in order to put General Otis in a better condition to force compliance with his terms, more regular troops will be hurried to him BB rapidly as possible. President McKinley is just as much averee to calling out more volunteers as ever, but he recognizes the fact that it may become necessary to do so in the near future, and if the necessity arises, he will meet it.
AMONG the President's recent callers was Hon. John Barrett, who was appointed minister to Siem by Mr. Cleveland, and who has jast returned from Manila, where he spent ten months studying the situation. Mr. Barrett said: "I was not originally in favor of the permanent retention of the islands, but the more I studied the question of our standing, politically and commercially, in the Pacific, the more convinced I became that our control there was essential to our prominence and prosperity in the far oast. We stand to-day as one of the great powerB of the Pacific. If we should withdraw control over the Philippines, we should abdicate a position that stands second to none and come after Great Britain, Russia, Germany and Japan. The vast interests of our Pacific coast forbids this. The east, and especially New England, should turn in and co-operate in this move." Of the present situation Mr. Barrett •aid: "Next to the rainy season, the worst thing our troops have to contend against in the Philippines is the news of the anti-imperialiBt agitation in this country, which is being sedulously gathered, and finds its way to the insurgents. They think this movement meanB a good deal, and if they keep on' long enough the agitation in America will come to their rescue."

FROM MANILA.
Larry Mitchell Writes Interestingly of Operations in the Far Away Land.
MANILA, P. I., April 26, 1899.—Dear Chum:—I will try and give you an account of our doings since I last wrote you. On the afternoon of the 24th of March we left our barrackB in the city and marched out to our lines north of the city, a distance of four miles, as our lines were ordered to advance at daybreak on the 25th. Well, that night (24th) we slept on the rougheBt ground I ever saw. It was in an old rice field and was nothing but bumps. The next mornim? I could hardly move, I was so sore. Well, just at daybreak, before we had time to get our stuff together, the fight started. There was an open field about 1,400 yards wide between our trenches and the Tagals. Across this our troops moved in line of skirmish. As soon aB the TagalB saw it they opened fire, but they fired too high. Our troops never fired a shot until they were within 500 yards of them, when they fired three volleys and then advanced and fired at 200 yards. The rebels kept their heads behind their trenches and stuck their guns over the top of the trenches and fired. That is how they missed our boys. Our line was then ordered to charge. They gave one of those wild yells of theirs, which they only know how to give, and charged right over their trenches. The rebels took to the woods as fast as their legs would carry them. Say, it is a sight to see them go. Ia some places the trenches were full of dead "nigs" and the ground bick of their trenches was strewn with dead and dying. It was an awful sight Our lines drove .hem ten miles that day. We are now on the south line, near the bay, where there are over 15,000 insurgents strongly intrenched, while we have only about 5,000 troops. So in a few days you may expect to hear of the largest battle of the war. Our regiment is first on the firing lines so someone is going to get hurt. Our company is now within 1,000 yards of their trenches and our outposts are so close we can hear them talk on theirs. They have sharpshooters posted in the trees in front of us. So you can see how they make us hop around and get th:n. We have trenches for our outposts and every time you stick your head up they take a shot at you. I was trying to locate one of their sharpshooters the other day and got my head a little too high, when "crack!'' went a gun and the bullet passed so close to my head that it blinded mo. You bet I didn't look for that "nig" again. They attack our outpOSts al"' most every night, but we make it So hot for them they don't last long. Weheard heavy firing yesterday afternoon about five miles on our left. ^They are trying to drive all of them down in front of us and surround them. Then look out for a big fight. I will have something worth writing you then.
It has been raining every day for about a week. We get soaking wet every time we go on guard.
This is a great place here. All the people except part of Manila live in bamboo shaks. As for clothes—well, I am afraid some of our Crawfordsville girls would not like to wear such scanty garb in public. They resemble some of our young
ladi6B'
ball dresses
in the matter of necks. If someone tellB you of beautiful Filipino girls, get a gun. I saw better looking girls of the dusky type in Cripple Creek. Most of the boys can talk Spanish pretty well now, so we can make them understand any thing we want. I will send you some papers printed here as soon as we get back in town. There are three, the American, Freedom and Manila Times.
I started to describe this place to you. Money is the most important thing. One of Uncle Sam's dollars is worth two of those free silver dollars, namely, Spanish and Mexican. Go to the banks and they will give you $10 20 for $5.00 American money and are glad to get it.
Along the coast, in fact on all the level land, they raise rice, though they have no improved machinery while inland there is an abundance of fruit cocoanuts, nutmegs, oranges, mangos and bananas. I don't Buppose you ever saw a mango. They grow on large trees and are a little larger than our pawpaw. There area great many pine apples and a great number of other fruit I never saw before. The land is laid off in small plots nofmuch larger than an American farmer's hog pen. There are wide deep ditches around every plot. Not more than one third of the land is under cultivation. It will take a great amount of work and a greater amount of money to get the land in a first class state of cultivation. With improved machinery rice raising might pay here. It is fearful hot here at times but now as it haB begun to rain they Bay it gets cooler. The natives don't mind the rain as they can live in a mud h«le. It Beems to me that half devils and half ducks would have been a nearer gueBB. Corporal Hofield, of our company, died a week ago of smallpox. That iB our first death in our company. All of the Crawfordsville boys are in the best of health. We are as well fed out here
on the firing line as we were at camp Thomas. The officers look after their men and see they have every comfort possible. We have the finest captain lever Berved under. He is like a father to the company. Every man in the company honorB and respects him and would follow him to death. Well, Lee, I suppose Crawfordsville will- be greatly changed when I get back (if I ever do). I hope my old friends will not forget me entirely. I wish you were with me to share hafd tack and blanket. Do you-know what regiment the fellowB are with? I will try to see them. I wish they could get in my company. Lane is on outpost to-day. I hear them exchanging complimentB with the "nigs" now I go on to-night. So give my regards to all my friends and have all the fun you can. I don't think you need the advice. I will close. Good bye.
Your Friend and Comrade, B. L. MITCHELL,
Co. M, 4th U. S. Inf. P. S.—I hear firing on the right of us. I suppose we will have to go out and civilize the "nigs."

AT ILOILO.
Lieutenant Herron Finds the Country a Fine One But With Its Disadvantages.
Capt. W. P. Herron has received a letter from his son, Lieut. Charles D. Herron, now at Iloilo, The letter was written about the latter part of last month, and recites a number of very interesting facts. Lieut. Herron is at Jaro, four miles out of the* town of Iloilo and it will be noted that it was near this place only a few days ago, long after the letter was written, that Capt. Tilley met hisdeath at the hands of the treacherous natives.
Lieut. Herron reached his station on April 18 and was assigned to Company I, of the 18th infantry. He states that everything is awaiting re-enforcement at Iloilo, as the ISth is now the only regiment there. There are only three little tugs in the harbor and these at times cannot make way against the tide which comes rushing in at the speed of a mill race. When he wrote there was a scarcity of fresh meat, potatoes and cigars, but the troops were faring excellently, there being an abundance of bacon, bread, fish, rice, and hot cakes, all splendidly cooked. There is also considerable fruit and the cocoanuts he says are delicious, at striking variance with those that reach this country. Jaro was a town, of about 1.000 inhabitants, but they all lied when the Americans came, leaving their houses intact. The houses are all of them nice and the streets are wide and handsome. The troops ocIcupy the deserted houses and have the bestB of everything. The officers occupy the palace which was the suburban home of the governor of the island under Spanish rule. The Spanish used only the upstairs rooms for living and kept the cattle downstairs, sweeping the trash through the openings in the floor.. This slovenly practice has of course been dropped and the lower floor has been cleaned. The upstairs is elegantly furnished and there are two fine German pianos of the 1S98 pattern. Many of the enlisted men also have pianos which they found in the deserted houses. Since the natives left, the Chinese are coming in and opening up the shops. They are superior to the Chinese seen in this country and are good business men. The natives, Lieut. Herron says, are tough propositions. They are small in size, the largest being about the build of a fourteen year old boy here, and they are sneaking and treacherous They are not very black and have straight hair. While obedient when watched they go astray whenever left to themselves. They have not one-tenth the latent possibility for development that the negro in this country has. There are many of the natives under arms near Iloilo and their trenches are only 1,200 yards from Lieut. Herron's quarters. Shots are frequently exchanged but little damage is done. The American troops are merely awaiting for re-enforce-ments, when they will make short work of the opposition. The worst type of the native soldier is the bolo man. These fellows carry bo.oes, or two edged swords sharp as a razor. They are perfectly reckless and not infrequently one of them walks right into town. They do not care if they lose their lives if only they can kill others first. Lieut. Herron is messing with Lieut. McBroom, who was appointed to the military academy several years ago from Fountain county and who formerly taught school at New Richmond and other places in this county.
