DOWNFALL OF AGUINALDO.

It would be interesting to know the
present sentiments of those who have
worshiped at the shrine of Aguinaldo.
That patriot has gone into liquida
tion, closed tin' doors of his patriot
shop, and retired from the patriot
business either permanently or tem
porarily. It is impossible to say just
w hat he will do next.
It would lie difficult to conceive of
Washington taking the oath of alle
giance to the king of England had
a band of red coats descended upon
and captured him at Valley Forge.
Kosciusko fell desperately wounded,
but he neither took the oath of alle
giance nor submitted to the will of the
oppressor. He even refused favors
and position, retiring into exile. Gari
baldi, Gomez, Kossuth, and all the
other patriots with whom Aguinaldo
has been compared to his temporary
advantage, held out to ultimate vic
tory or exile. Aguinaldo alone, the
general who never commanded his
forces in even one battle, no sooner
lands in Manila than he holds up his
right band and swears allegiance to
the country lie has been defying by
proclamation for two years.
Doubtless his worshipers would not
have had him do this, but he has shown
more sense than they. There may
have been some excuse for him at one
time if he really did believe American
rule in the Philippines would follow
along lines laid down through the
centuries by Spanish precedent. He

had little personal knowledge of the
American character. His followers
here were better informed, lie had
been educated in deceit, schooled
in corruption, believing both to be
the rule the world over. The Ameri
can worshipers of the Malay hero
knew the people of this country could
never become the oppressors of a
weaker nation, and if any administra
tion should attempt to play that role ,
there would be a lively session end
ing in a new administration. Having
once sold out to Spain at a good figure
be may have been ambitious to re
peat the experience.
But whatever considerations influ
enced him and decided his course in
the beginning he now knows he was
mistaken. He can look around and see
the results of American direction of
insular affairs during a time of gen
eral disturbance, and he is satisfied.
A gleam of common sense has illum
ined bis mental vision. It is not at
all probable he ever hoped to make
as much progress towards substantial
freedom under his own rule in a dec
ade as the authorities now in posses
sion have made in the short time they
have controlled the affairs of tlie
islands. By taking the oath he has
practically acknowledged that he has
changed his opinion.
At the same time his acceptance
of the existing government after con
ferring with those who had been out
of the woods and swamps for some
little time, during which they had be
come acquainted with the real state
of affairs, must cause his worshipers
in this country deep sorrow. They
have believed in him and slandered
their own country because of that
belief. He now informs them, in ef
fect, that he was in error and that
they, who could have known all of
the facts, were willfully blind. Tie is
willing to accept the situation as he
finds it now. while the echoes of their
treasonable railings have not yet died
away. He has become an American
citizen, voluntarily stepping down
from the pedestal to which he was
elevated aforetime by his sentimental
admirers. He will probably engage
in business of some kind and leave
them to hunt for some other hero
upon whom they may lavish their
poetically eloquent affections. —Mil-

AN EMPIRE NOT FEARED.
"IHnlirr l.rarnlnK" That Doe* Not
Lift n liiiiMcil Mind from the
I'M of Error.
Evidently there are different kinds
of "higher learning." A week or two
ago President lladley, of Yale, was
kind enough to come forward and
quietly warn the people that the
United States is destined to become
an empire, and that there will be an
emperor in Washington within a
quarter of a century. Some supposed
that a man with such a gigantic in
tellect as his could make no mistake,
and yet President Draper, of the Uni
versity of Illinois, another man who
is most gifted in "higher learning,"
now assures us that what lladley
said is all nonsense, and that there
is absolutely no danger of the repub
lic becoming an empire. "The Out
look of the United States at the Open
ing of the Twentieth Century as
Compared with the Opening of the
Nineteenth Century" was the sub
ject of Draper's address and it was
delivered before the Chicago Acad
emy of Science. He traced the
growth and progress of the past cen
tury and predicted its influence upon
the century now opened. We have
bad a battle royal with the foreign
markets; until now we have forced
ourselves in first place, where wo
stand to-day in the eyes of the world.
This great movement, he says, has
been of more national consequence
than appears upon the surface.
"There are and will be more factories,
employment has been given ro thou
sands, wages have advanced until
|they are now higher than in any
other land on the globe. Are we to
look askance at the men who have
been the leaders in this great fight
and say. as has been said by one of
our great, college presidents, that
the}' are going to turn this govern
ment into an empire?" Draper asks
how these men could overthrow the
government, even if they desired to,
i which he very much doubts, when
they are dependent on the thousands
of honest American workingmen they
I employ. "The people know their own
political power very well and they
expect to use it." Draper's "higher
learning" is plainly of a higher order

THE BEST HE EVER SAW.
A Mimwurlan . Prononneen on the
l<'urmiiiK I'osslbllltlea of
Western Couuilii.
Just at present considerable inter
est is being aroused in the fact that a
few new districts (of limited acreage)
are being opened out by the Canadian
Government in Saskatchewan and As
siniboia (Western Canada), and any
information concerning this country
is eagerly sought. Mr. \Y. It. Corser,
of lligginsville,Lafayette Co., Mo., was
a delegate there during last summer,
and writing of his impressions he
says:
"I found surprising yields of grain
of all descriptions. One farmer I vis
ited threshed of 175 acres:
"(100 bushels of wheat from 15 acres,
40 bushels to acre.
"COO bushels of barley from 10 acres,
6" bushi Is to acre.
"15,000 bushels of oats fr*n 150 acres,
100 bushels to acre.
"The samples were all No. 1.
"1 also saw a considerable number of
stock. Swine do well and there is no
disease amongst them. They are a
good source of income to the farmer.
The -cattle on the range beat anything
I ever saw. Fat and ready for beef,
fully matured and ripened on the
nutritious grasses of the prairie. lam
firmly convinced that this country of
fers better facilities for a poor man
than any I have ever seen."
Information concerning these lands
can be had from any agent of the gov
ernment, whose advertisement ap

HER BABY BOY.
The One Siiggewtlon 'flint Struck the
Itoer Woitiuii'a Heart uutl Mio
Miotvctl It.
At a prosperous Boer farmhouse
where Gen. Lan Hamilton requested
shelter for the night, a bedroom and
parlor were placed at his disposal,
says the Youth's Companion. This j
was not very enthusiastically done, j
but a.t thait iro one could wonder. '
The general began talking with the
old lady of the family, the farmer's
wife.
He spoke through an interpreter,
end her answers were given with so
little grace that he relinquished the
task. Only once had her stern face
lighted; this was when lie asked
about her youngest fighting son, a
boy of li. Her lips quivered; emo- ;
tion was not really I'roZcn within her. i
Next day the general had occasion
to ride past the farm, and he called,
for a moment, upon her.
"Tell her," said he to the inter
preter, "that we have won the battle
to-day."
They told her, and she bowed her
heiad with some dignity.
"Tell her the Dutch will certainly
•be beaten.
No answer.
"Perhaps her sons will be taken
prisoners.
Still no reply.
".\*ovv, tell her to write down on a
piece of paper the name of the young
est, and give iif, to my aide-de-camp.
Then, when he is captured, she must
write t'o me, land we will not keep
'him a prisoner. We will send him
back to her.
At last her face broke into emotion.
The chord had been struck.
< ll!l<lrrtl should Ite Taught Thrift.
A savings bank account is a great
incentive to thrift in children. If one
is begun for the baby, even with a
very small sum, and added to through
childhood ami youth with a certain
proportion of the money that other
wise would be spent carelessly and
thoughtlessly by the child, there will
be a very respectable amount on the
credit side of the ledger when the
depositor is 18 years old. The habit
of self-denial is not the least of the
substantial benefits that follow a
wise economy of money.—Ladies'

The Merchants' lteview tells this story
on a drummer for an Ithaca grocery
house: The grocer recently sent out an
energetic young man to canvass for new
customers. He worked hard for the in
terests of his employer, and also some
what wearied the good housewives whom
he called upon. At one house lie used up
ins whole line of argument and gasped
for more, as the lady of the house still
said she was perfectly satisfied with her
regular grocer. Then a happy thought
struck him, and he said: "Airs. Jones, 1
wouldn't for the world say anything
against the grocer you patronize, but let
me ask you if you think he cares anything
for you except your money? Do you think
he intends to plant roses on your grave?
Now, you just trade with my firm, and I
guarantee they will give you entire satis
faction."

trait in this sketch, Mrs. Williams of
Englishtown, N.J., has been entirely
cured of such illness and misery by
Lydia E. I'inkham's Vegetable Corc
found, and the guiding advice of Mrs.
inkham of Lynn, Mass.
No other medicine has such a record
for absolute cures, and no other medi
cine is "just as good." Women who
want a cure should insist upon getting
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound when they ask for it at a store.
Anyway, write a letter to Mrs. Pink
ham at Lynn, Mass., and tell her all
your troubles. Her advice is free.
