I nominated at* an extonfederate, General Luke Wright, of Tennessee. It Is therefore an ex-Confederate Who now stands as the exponent of this government and this people in that great group of Islands in the eastern seas orer which the American flag floats. General Wright has taken a leading part In the work of steadily bringing order and peace out of the bloody chaos In which we fonikl the islands. He Is now taking a leading part -not merely In upholding the honor of the flag by making It respected as the symbol of our power, bat still more In upholding Its honor by unwearied labor for the establishment of ordered liberty—of lawcrcatlng. law-abiding civil government—under its folds. opportunity against those whose energy we should especially foster, by penalising the qualities whlcll tell for success. Just as little can we* afford those who fear to recognise justice and to endeavor to cut It out because the tisk Is difficult or even—If performed by unskillful hauds—dangerous. This Is an era of gfeat combinations, fcoth of labor and of capital. In many ways these combinations have worked for good; but they must work under the law, and the laws concerning uem must be just and wise, or they will Inevitably do evil; and ijib applies as much to the richest corporation as to the most powerful labor union. Our laws must b«* wise, sane, healthy, conceived In the spirit of those who scorn" the mere agitator, the mere Inslter of claSs or sectional hatred; who wish justice for nil men ; t*ho recognise the need of adher ing so far as possible to the American doctrine of giving the widest possible scope for the free exercise of Individual initiative, and yet who recognise also that after combinations have reached a certain stage It is Indispensable to general welfare that the nation should exercise over them, cautiously and with self-restraint, but firmly, the power of supervision and regulation.

It is learned from official sources that the strike of the miners there, and particularly those who were employed by the Rochester and Pittsburg Coal company, has determined the coal company upon drastic measures for stamping out all unionism In its section. The Uochester and PlttBburg company operates three mines, the Walton, Adrlau and Florence. All are near Punxsutawney, and upon them depend fully 10,000 men for employment. Of "thU -tiiiinber «,000 are the regular miners. The rest are filling other occupations. Two hundred insurgent troops presented arms when the Americau officers landed. General Guevarra and fourteen officers received them. Upon arriving at the house where the conference occurred, Guevarra lnformea General Smith that the insurgents were anxious to surrender on the following six conditions: First, that the friars be expelled from the Philippine Islands; second, freedom of worship; third, the expulsion of all Chinese merchants; fourth, the establishment of a school system; fifth,' liberty of the press, and, sixth, the release of all prisoners of war. position Grounds.

General Smith Informed that since peace was assured the prisoners of war would undoubtedly be released. He said that a school «■«;- tem Was already In operation in the pacified districts of the archipelago and tlwt this system would be extended to Samar island. The American general explained that the entrance of Chinese to the Philippine Islands was prohibited by law and that It would be unfair to expel those now engaged In business under the flag. He said that all persons In the archipelago were entitled to worship as they pleased and that the press was now free. When they accepted the peace, he explained, tlie'y would have civil government and a great degree of liberty. People's Stan, We want your grocery orders for several reasons. "After vainly endeavoring to get an agreement satisfactory to the officers of the company and finally despairing of It, orders were given to close down the mines. Tills order means the absolute idleness .of the properties of the company for at least all of the present summer. It will leave the miners without work, whether they would work or not. and will seriously affect business in punxsutawney. A lunch was served the President by the ladies of the exposition, at the conclusion of the exercises.

FORGING THE CHAIN. Van Wormer Brothers Entangled in "The first step taken was to issue the notice to the miners occupying houses owned by the company to remove from tliem.

There are still many witnesses for the peo. pie! The defense's questions show that counsel will try to prove an alibi. The first witness today was Mrs. Catherine Hallenback, wife of Charles Hallenbeck, brother ol the deceased. Guevarra and his party accepted these explanations und promised to surrender April 13. He then escorted the American officers to a banquet, which was served with cloth napkins and all the adjuncts of civilization. The insurgent general apologized for the scarcity of food. The principal dishes at the banquet were chicken and the meat of tbe water buffalo. General Smith gave Guevarra permission to purchase rice for the use of tbe Insurgent troops.

Just as little can we* afford those who fear to recognise justice and to endeavor to cut It out because the tisk Is difficult or even—If performed by unskillful hauds—dangerous. This Is an era of gfeat combinations, fcoth of labor and of capital. In many ways these combinations have worked for good; but they must work under the law, and the laws concerning uem must be just and wise, or they will Inevitably do evil; and ijib applies as much to the richest corporation as to the most powerful labor union. Our laws must b«* wise, sane, healthy, conceived In the spirit of those who scorn" the mere agitator, the mere Inslter of claSs or sectional hatred; who wish justice for nil men ; t*ho recognise the need of adher ing so far as possible to the American doctrine of giving the widest possible scope for the free exercise of Individual initiative, and yet who recognise also that after combinations have reached a certain stage It is Indispensable to general welfare that the nation should exercise over them, cautiously and with self-restraint, but firmly, the power of supervision and regulation.

It is learned from official sources that the strike of the miners there, and particularly those who were employed by the Rochester and Pittsburg Coal company, has determined the coal company upon drastic measures for stamping out all unionism In its section. The Uochester and PlttBburg company operates three mines, the Walton, Adrlau and Florence. All are near Punxsutawney, and upon them depend fully 10,000 men for employment. Of "thU -tiiiinber «,000 are the regular miners. The rest are filling other occupations. Two hundred insurgent troops presented arms when the Americau officers landed. General Guevarra and fourteen officers received them. Upon arriving at the house where the conference occurred, Guevarra lnformea General Smith that the insurgents were anxious to surrender on the following six conditions: First, that the friars be expelled from the Philippine Islands; second, freedom of worship; third, the expulsion of all Chinese merchants; fourth, the establishment of a school system; fifth,' liberty of the press, and, sixth, the release of all prisoners of war. position Grounds.

General Smith Informed that since peace was assured the prisoners of war would undoubtedly be released. He said that a school «■«;- tem Was already In operation in the pacified districts of the archipelago and tlwt this system would be extended to Samar island. The American general explained that the entrance of Chinese to the Philippine Islands was prohibited by law and that It would be unfair to expel those now engaged In business under the flag. He said that all persons In the archipelago were entitled to worship as they pleased and that the press was now free. When they accepted the peace, he explained, tlie'y would have civil government and a great degree of liberty. People's Stan, We want your grocery orders for several reasons. "After vainly endeavoring to get an agreement satisfactory to the officers of the company and finally despairing of It, orders were given to close down the mines. Tills order means the absolute idleness .of the properties of the company for at least all of the present summer. It will leave the miners without work, whether they would work or not. and will seriously affect business in punxsutawney.

There are still many witnesses for the peo. pie! The defense's questions show that counsel will try to prove an alibi. The first witness today was Mrs. Catherine Hallenback, wife of Charles Hallenbeck, brother ol the deceased. Guevarra and his party accepted these explanations und promised to surrender April 13. He then escorted the American officers to a banquet, which was served with cloth napkins and all the adjuncts of civilization. The insurgent general apologized for the scarcity of food. The principal dishes at the banquet were chicken and the meat of tbe water buffalo. General Smith gave Guevarra permission to purchase rice for the use of tbe Insurgent troops.
