It does this in such manner as to make the elections honest and fair, an 1 to leave no discretion whatever as to the qualifications of the voter to the election ollieer.

In arguing against adopting the proposed treaty with Spain Senator Mason said: We are asked to acquire the Phil ippines by treaty by treaty with a people who have no more right to cede the territory than the devil had to offer to the Saviour all the land in sight of the mountain height: he did not possess even a tax title to it." Why did not Spain have a right to cede this territory? Was it not hers by title? Did the fact that the Fili pinos were in revolt against Spanish authority relinquish the mother c . un try's right or title to the territory? We think not. And yet we are opposed to acquir ing the Philippines, but not on the grounds above mentioned. The proper thing to do is to ratify the treaty aud then settle the Philippine question afterward. The Filipinos would doubtless be glad to reimburse the United States for the $20,000,000 we agreed to pay Spain and let us have a coaling station and make other rea sonable accessions beside.

A Clash at Arms Between Agruitialdo's Forces and the American Troops The Insurgents Suffer Terrible Pun ishment and Defeat War Ships Shell the Enemy Inflicting' Great Loss of Life. Manila, February 5, 8:15 p. m. The long-expected rupture between the Americans and the I'nipinos lias come at last. The former are now engaged in solving the Philippine problem with the utmost expedition possible. the clash came at 8:40 vesteruav evening, when three daring Filipinos dashed past the Nebraska regi ment's pickets at Santa Mesa, but retired when challenged. They re peated the experiment whithout drawing the sentries' lire. But the third time Corporal Greely challeng ed the Filipinos and then fired, killing one of them and wounding mother. Almost immediately afterwards the Filipinos' line, from Caloocan to Santa Mesa, commenced a fusilade which was ineffectual. The Ne braska, Montana and North Dakota outposts replied vigorously, ami held their ground until re-enforce ments arrived. The Filipinos in the meantime concentrated at three points Caloocan, Gagalangin and Santa Mesa. At about 1 o'clock the Filipinos opened a hot fire from all three places simultaneously. I his was supplemented by the lire of two siege guns, at Halik-lialik, and by advancing their skirmishers at Paco and Pandacan. The Americans re sponded with a terrific lire, but owing to the darkness they were unable to determine its effect. Ihe Utah light artillery finally succeeded in silencing the native battery. The Third artillery also did good work on the extreme left. 1 he engagement lasted over an hour. The United States cruiser Charles ton and the gunboat Concord, station ed off Malabona, opened fire from their secondary batteries on the Filipinos' position at Caloocan, and kept it up vigorously. At 2:lo there was another fusilade along the entire line, and the United Stated sea-going double-turreted monitor Monadnock opened lire on the enemy from off Malale. With daylight, the Americans ad vanced. The California and Washing ton regiments made a splendid charge and drove the Filipinos from the village of Paco and Santa Mesa. The Nebraska regiment also dis tinguished itself, capturing several prisoners and one howitzer and a very strong position at the reservoir, which is connected with the water works. The Kansas and Dakota regiments compelled the -enemy's right Hank to retire to Caloocan There was intermittent firing at various points all day long. The losses of the Filipinos cannot be estimated at present, but they are known to be considerable. The American losses are estimated at twenty killed and 125 wounded. The Ygorates, armed with bows and arrows, made a very determined stand in the face of a hot artillery lirfi (viitl loft mulkv mou clocxcl oil tl Held.

C Careful estimate place, the Filipino losses up to date at l'.ooj dead, 3,500 wounded aud o.'iOO taken prisoners. AX ENGLISH ACCOUNT. London", Feb. b The Morning Post publishes the following details of the lighting at Manila: Saturday's and Sunday's engage ments have proved a slaughter for the Filipinos, their killed being re ported as amounting to thousands. The American forces could scarcely have been better disposed. It is now known that the attack was fully ex pected, and that every precaution nau been matte to meet the con tingency. OTIS ESTIMATES LOSSES Washington, Feb. 7. The War Department to-day received the fol lowing dispatch from General Otis: Manila. Feb. 7. Adjutant-Geneaal, Washington: The insurgent army concentrated around Manila from Luzon provinces, numbering over 20,000, possessing several quick-liring and Krupp held guns, uootl portion of enemy armed with Mausers of latest patern.

The Americans, as mis uispateu is sent, are in com plete control of the situation within a radius of nine miles of Manila. Their lines extend to Malabon, on the North, and to Paranaque, on the South, and are fully twenty-live miles long. While a few detached sections of the Filipinos still offer opposition the main body of them is in full retreat and utterly routed after hVntinc bravely. Of the hordes of troops originally drawn up in battle array against the Americans fully one-third are already incapacitated and the others are scat tered in every direction.

Things Seen and Reported by Our j Washington Correspondent. (From Our Special Correspondent.) Washington. D. C, Feb. 7. Not since the exciting davs before the capture of Santiago has Washing ton been so excited as it has since last Sunday when the news of the lighting in the Philippines reached here Trouble with the Insurgents had been expected and provided for, but, nevertheless, the breaking out of war afresh created a sensation. One of its immediate results was the ratification of the treaty of peace, which occurred promptly Monday afternoon. The treaty lacked only two votes of the number necessary for its ratification and these were promptly secured as soon as the news of the battle with the Insurgents was made public. Both the North Caro lina senators voted for the ratifica tion of the treaty. But two Repub licans voted against it Hoar, of Massachusetts, and Hale, of Maine. EverT influence was brought to bear to make them vote for it, but they held out to the end. It will be gratifying news to many- North Carolinians to know that the House committee has adopted a re port recommending public buildings for 'Elizabeth City, Durham and Win ston. The cost' is iixed at $50,000 each, and very creditable structures will be erected. I here is little doubt that the bills providing for these buildings will pass. The Comptroller of the Treasury has authorized the Murchison Na tional Bank, of Wilmington, to begin business. It has a capital of $100, 000. Gen. Miles has approved the sen tence in the court martial of James Ellis, Co. I, Third North Carolina Regiment, who was sentenced to dis charge from the army and imprison ment for life. He will be sent to the penitentiary at Leavenworth, Kansas. C. II. J.Taylor, the negro who was Recorder of Deeds of the District of Columbia under Cleveland, has gone to North Carolina to attend a negro convention at Raleigh. A bill has been introduced in the Honse to reduce the number of rep resentatives in Congress from the South. Representative Crum packer is the author, and he claims that the South is not entitled to the same proportion of representation as the North because a large proportion of the negroes are not allowed to vote. This bill stands no prospect of im mediate passage but it seems to have been aimed particularly at North Carolina, which State is now dealing with the question of restricting the suffrage. Manly, the negro editor who was run out of Wilmington, made a very incendiary speech to the negroes here some davs ago, and tS . 7 the local negroes have been trying to again stir up sentiment against North Carolina. Senator Butler continues to present numerous petitions in favor of the establishment of postal savings banks Already North Carolina petitions from live places, signed by seven or eight hundred persons, have been presented. There is a good deal of talk re garding Judge Ewart's successor, as it is taken for granted that he will not be confirmed. Senator Pritchard is frequently mentioned, but it is pointed out that the President would not consent to Pritchard's retirement from the Senate, as he would almost certainly be succeeded by a Demo crat. lormer Congressman Toni Settle and wife have been here in the past week, the guests of Mrs. ance. The North Carolina Society is in a nourishing condition. The new olh cers recently elected are: President, Dr. W. C. Murphy; Vice-President, Jas. B. Lloyd; Secretary, F. W. Little; Treasurer, David Anderson. The annual reception of the Society, which is an event with North Caro linians in Washington, will be held sometime this month. The Secretary of Agriculture, Mr. Wilson, is to make a tour of the South soou. looking at it from an agricul tural standpoint. He will visit North Carolina among other States, and investigate the soil, methods of farm ing, etc. A number of petitions from North Carolina W. C. T. U.'s protesting against the sale of liquor in govern ment buildings, etc., have been pre sented. President McKinley has received a genuine North Carolina rabbit's foot, presented by an admirer of his at Kernersville, who writes that it is the left hind foot of a rabbit killed in a Moravian grave-yard. Mr. Mc Kinlev says ho will carry it "just for fun." Prepare For Spring.

At a meeting of the Foryth County White Man's Club, held" iu Winston last week, the followino resolutions introduced by Eugene P? Albea were unanimously adopted: Whereas, There are now pending be fore the Legislature, bills, requiring the Railroads of our State, to provide sepa rate coaches or compartments on their trains for the two races, which is in accord with our motto, that the line of distinction should be drawn in all public places; and Whereas, While we wish to deal legally, justly and fairly with all cor porations, yet in so doing wish to pro tect our citizens upon the highways of transportation, as well as in otherpublic gatherings; therefore be it Reiolved, That it is the desire of this, Forsyth County White Man's Club, that we request the Democratic members of both Houses of our Legislature, to give to our citizens such a law, without in creasing the cost of transportation. Resolved, That two of the bills which have been introduced, are in substance, indentical with the law of Tennessee, and there have been decided constitutional by the Higher Court; therefore, Resolved, That we annex a copy of the above mentioned law to these resolu tions and have the Secretary to forward the same to our representatives at Raleigb, asking them to use their in fluence to have this good law become effective as early as possible, consistent with all interests.

Tutt's Liver Pi'Is THE RACE QUESTION And Taxation For Public Educa tion. (Communicated ) The sentimentalism which seems to have been developed, in different sectious of the State, regarding curtailments of the public shoo! fund, to be awarded for the benefit of the negro, promises to be come a fruitful theme for discussion. Those who favor the curtailment think the sentiment misplace! from the fact, that for 30 years, the white man a prop erty has been taxed, not only to educate his own, but the negro s children, and the latter has for years received more than his proportionate part. It is esti mated that the white man pays 90 pr cent, of this tax. Apart from State aid the negro receives exclusively material aid from Northern sources. The churches N'orth erect and equip comfortable buildings, hire and pay competent teach ers, and furnish tuition free. The white children are entirely dependent upon State aid, and often it happens, from pressing circumstances of the parents, their children receive but little benefit, though the parent pays the school tax. There is no State, according to its ability, that has done more to educate and elevate t tie negro than rsorth Caro lina, and in no State has the ngro re ceived greater consideration. How have these favors been appreciated? There is not an instance on record, since 18bS, but what he has allied himself to any and every party opposing, and striving to overthrow the very men who have ever been his benefactors. Not satisfied with the benefits received under fusion he nor. only aspired to control the negro, but also white schools. The great mis take the white people have made in North Carolina is in not letting the negro understand this country was the white man's before t he negro ever placed foot upon its soil. It is his now and he in tends hereafter to control its destinies re gardless of negroes and their irresponsi ble allies. Yes, the white man can afford to be generous as well as just, but it is his province to control every department of thr State and this he intends to do. And while willing to aid the negro in the edu cation of his children, he is not wiiHng to let him have, as heretofore, more than his proportionate part. JUSTICE.
