Weston and blocking by Eagan, plus commentary from The Times Herald on McKinley favoring permanent control of the Philippines with a shift to civil government after peace. It mentions fusionists, imperialism tensions, and political forecasts. Also includes a health note on women’s suffering and a Jersey bull for sale, with ad submission reminder.
