Indianapolis August 17, 1898. The Quot Manifest destiny Quot Man. The Quot Manifest destiny Quot Man is the charming individual of the present Emer of Roicy. He was against War in the Torst Lilace and was willing to throw our Honor to the winds rather than Force the Issue with Spain. Even after the War was begun the Quot Manifest destiny Quot Man howled until his ears ached but As soon As Dewey won his splendid Battle at Manila the Quot Manifest destiny Quot Man became Philo a optical. Then when Cervera s Fleet was destroyed the Quot Manifest destiny Quot Man became a Prophet he pierced the future a with startling precision and saw our finish Pur destiny. He would not admit his error in the first place although now urging that the War was a War of destiny. And where do we now find him he in away beyond the picket lines of popular opinion and is howling his demand that our government keep Cuba cling to Porto Btu of. Hang onto the Philippines and gob is every 2x4 Colony that Spain possesses Yas the Quot Manifest destiny Quot Man is having his Day and while sober thought is being applied to our new conditions with an Earnest desire to Aid the president of the United states in deciding aright the Manifest destiny Quot Man has arranged it All and to his mind no statesmanship no solid sense no Avalanche of Public sentiment can possibly Avert the destiny toward which we Are Drifting. There is no Quot expansion Quot or Quot imperialism Quot Al out it. The whole thing is destiny pure and simple. Hurrah for the pliable reversible Quot Manifest destiny Quot Man. His antics up to Date have been ridiculous they Are now taking on a humorous phase. Keep an Eye on him. He s the funniest thing in the category of statesmanship Bric a Brac. Getting at the truth. It will be noticed that the truth is slowly coming up through the debris of misrepresentation under which the cubans have been buried by correspondents at the front. Some of the Eastern papers have undertaken to prove that the lighting organized cubans Are not entitled to the criticisms that have been heaped upon them and that the sweeping denunciations which have recently appeared in american newspapers were based solely upon the conduct 01 the Xvi angry Camp followers and refugees at Santiago. The armies of Garcia and Gomez it is shown have fought valiantly and aside from the hastily advised action of Garcia in withdrawing his army from before Santiago not a Cloud can be cast upon him or his Anny. And even this clash with shatter in no Way lessened the usefulness of Garcia and his soldiers who retired to the Interior and took City after City with remarkable rapidity and a splendid display of Energy arid courage. And so with Gomez who a has pushed Forward under the distressing circumstances and acted As nearly in Accord with the wishes of our government As was possible. Now that peace has been declared the facts Are reaching the surface and it need not be at All surprising if it should develop that president Mckinley has full Confidence in the Worth and ability of the cubans and will Deal justly with them As based upon their merits. Would it be a remedy the state tax Board it is reported will recommend to the legislature that the Law be amended so that appealed tax cases May be reopened before the Board. While the Board As at present constituted has unwarranted Powers and can do As it pleases with the matter of taxes regardless of argument or evidence we doubt very much whether or not this proposed amendment would be of any Avail. If a Case should be reopened it would be simply reheard by this Board. This would be much like a court reviewing its own decisions and probably would be much less a satisfactory. Little could be expected from a Board for instance that was swayed rather by whims than by facts by a Board that was influenced by Petty spites rather than Justice. However there 1 should be something done to Correct the i evils made pass Lisle to a Law placing so important a matter in the hands of men of narrow minds. Such men have already Dan aged the state and deprived it of More Money than they have saved it by their most unfair and unwarranted Sagasta assures the Spanish nation that the United states has an elephant on its hands in Cuba. If the cubans Are an ele i Hant what sort of a Piggy is Spain that Quot she should cry enough in four months. Quot the Czar of. Russia is trying to borrow big sums of Money and John Bull is yell eng Quot Don to Ioan him a cent Quot. And As a m cd sequence tie Czar i3 having his Trou. The civil service farce. The chief thing that is being accomplished by the civil service seems to be to increase the expenditures of the government. Man can t be legislated into a Saint. Law is a very Small obstacle in the path of the Man with an appetite for a political Job and a political pull to help him. Party organization As conducted these Days demands that when a Man works for his party he must be paid. The party Boss expects to have him paid and he expects to get his fingers in the pie. The civil service puritans Are trying and have been trying to legislate this hunger for political Pap out of the political worker hut they Haven t succeeded even in a Small degree. The hunger is becoming Moie and More assertive year by year because . The Mckinley i Ianna administration according to the report of the civil service commission seems to have been very busily engaged recently in satisfying tie tavies they Teli. Col. Roosevelt is a Good Story Teller and whether he is talking of his Little Missouri ranch experiences or of the Humours of a new York police court he always has a Large and interested audience. One night in Camp he was talking of tie Marquis de mores writes a Santiago correspondent of the Chicago record. Quot it was like living with a Cotton mouthed adder to be with him Quot he said Quot exciting and interest ing but not pleasant. An intensely spectacular Many dramatic. He would receive an Anonymous note warning him not to go to a certain Butte where he could never by any possibility have had any intention of going that assassins were concealed there Quot waiting for him. Forthwith he would festoon himself with pistols and knives mount his Coal Black horse and ride around that Butlo glaring into the darkness. People fleeced him and hum bugged him right and left. He wanted to join the apaches at one time. They appealed to him As a Noble and oppressed race. They would have eaten one of his Western neighbors hunger above mentioned and still there a pm Roosevelt said Quot he was a Man of is More to follow. Since the commission was organized it reports with Teirs in its voice that the classified service which comes under civil service regulations has t been increased at All but that the unclassified with whom it is unnecessary to have a knowledge of ancient history in order to secure a place has increased17 per cent and the salaries paid them in Washington alone amounts to �3,000,000 annually. Our tax judge. By reference to the county records it is found that col. I. N.
