Correspondence of the Associated Press.
Manila, P. 1., May 25.—Felipe
ln formerly secretary of state in the
F'iltp no government, surrendered to the
American forces last December, fully ex
l„ ing to be shot as soon as It was learn
ed who he was. Instead of executing him,
h w ver, the American officer to whom
Hue:-, amino presented himself invited the
j i .[ ino to share his supper of two eggs
an Ia handful of rice, and the next day
pt ,, t h m down to Manila. Here he was
confined for thr, e months in the Avela
e:r< et Jail.
Shortly before Gen. Otis left for home
B leniamino was released, and it was un
dersiocd between Otis and Bueneamlno
that the latter should devote his energies
toward effecting peace between the Fili
pino forces and those of the United
Slat sand the recognition of American
sorer Ignty in the Philippines by the Fili
pinos. To this end, Buencamino has com
posed a peace prograpime, copies of which
have been sent to the prominent leaders
of the. revolution, both in and out of
Manila, and it is the purpose of Buen
camitso to start the formation of a "Phil
ippine National Party” on the basis con
tained in this programme, a faithful trans
lation of which follows:
"As the present Filipino revolution is a
direct result of the Spanish-American
war, and as we have declared the United
States to be the protecting power of our
independence, it is impossible, in accord
ance with international law, for us to do
without the United States in the matter
of obtaining our national independence,
because no oountry can enter into the con
cert of independent nations except in ac
cordance with the rules of that lew.
'The proclamation of Emilio Aguinaldo,
dated May 24, 1898, the revolutionary help
given by our troops during the war be
tween Spain and the United Statss, and
the treaty of Paris, dated Dec. 10. IS9B,
conspired to give to the United States
the role of protecting power over the Phil
ippines, as well as that of the belligerent
power to whom Spain sold all her r ghts
for £0,000,000. And. If to the forego ng legal
deductions we add the fact that the Unit
ed States have clearly hown their deter
mination to intervene in our future, the
impossibility of resist'ng their inierven
ton becomes still more evident and
clear.
"It is possible that the United States,
eventually weary of our present system
of warfare, may decide to sell us to some
other Power, or else leave us to our
fate; in which latter ease it would de
volve upon us to obtain the recognition
of our independence from the nations of
the world. This possibility Is fraught
with the Imminent danger that we fall
victim to the ambitions of the great na
tions, and become partitioned among
them.
onsequently, it is necessary that >we
ognize the supremacy of the United
S tiles and strive to obtain, within the lim
its of the American constitution; the
greatest measure of liberty compatible
with our welfare.
“The most predominant features in our
past independent government were those
immoralities and abuses which are the
offspring of our own ignorance, and the
v. . inherited by us from Spain. W
Fii.'ceeded in making the Filipino regime
so odious to our own people that, in the
critical moments of our affairs, the peo
ple showed us their hatred; they respect
ed neither our cabinet officers nor ;ke
persons of the mother and the son of the
President of the Filipino republic, whom
they sold tt> the Americans after first hav
ing murdered many of the leaders, offi
cers and soldiers of our army; and they
h ive robbed our government of its proper
ties and money. We require, then, the
protecting power of the United States to
prevent our national unity from destruc
tion by those civil wars which, owing to
the factional feelings and divisions aris
ing from our immoralities and abuses,
would undoubtedly obtain, were an inde
pendent government established.
"The conciliatory policy pursued by the
American government, notwithstanding
our marked hostility to it, the humane
treatment of prisoners and their release
from prison after short detention only;
the installation into public office of the
more intelligent Filipinos; the increase in
wages and the consequent betterment of
the lalx>ring classes; the liberal Teform in
our laws, and the granting to our towns
of a mnrriage and municipal law emi
nently democratic and such as we did not
possess even under our own independent
government; all this has increased the
sentiment for annexation to an extraor
dinary degree, and to-day there is among
us the keenest competition for all gov
ernment employments.
“Should the time come when our clash
ing interests will lead brother to tight
against brotser, we will then indeed be un
fortunate and to be pitied. The Americans
will dominate under these deploranie cir
cumstances, and we will be helpless. If,
notwithstanding our fleeting political dis
sensions, we can manage to preserve our
national unity, we will always be a re
spectable nation of ten millions of people,
* n< l capable ultimately of obtaining our
rational emancipation; but, if we are di
vided by the irreconcilable hatreds which
lead to civil strife, we will be nothing
more nor less than a group of tribes,
and we could easily be reduced to the
' ev < lof the nomad Igorrotes.
"For these reasons we should cease hos
tiiit .s with the United States, and form
a national party, which, if we take ad
t! moment, will always be in the ma
' antage of the opportunities of the pres-
Jority.
Another powerful argument for peace
1 the fact that in continuing our present
a ' i<m of guerilla warfare we give an ex-
I for the bad element of our popula
tion io live by force of arms at the cost
of their more peaceful neighbors; under
guise of patriots these former take

ill effects of euch actions are already
‘tit throughout the land, and they have
h on to our dause a reputation for crim
'r 11 '■ methods and abuses. The national
la "V would show great political dlsccrn
f" 1 i anti good sense were they lo cease
hostilities and co-operate with the rstab
h'-l"d authorities ill the prosecution of
' bandits and robbers who have, dur
’’ o the last few months, succeeded In
“'a; -ting the fair fame of the Filipino
r °volution to the low level.
in view of the foregoing, we believe
' following resolutions should be adopt
ed ;
I -rst. Recognize the supremacy of the
rllp, i States by a cessation of hostiil
obey the American authorities and
“'■illy co-operate with them In the work

B&WEBfED WOMEN.
We look in amazement at the burdens
some women cany upon their heads.
Yet how light they are compared with
tlie burdens some women carry upon
their hearts. There are chi Id less'women
whose hearts ache ceaselessly because of
the childless home. That burden of
childlessness has been lifted from the
heart of many a woman by the use of
Dr. Pierce’s'Favorite Prescription. Many
va obstacles to maternity are remov
able. Such obstacles are entirely re
moved by ” Favorite Prescription.” It

n I have never written you how grateful lam
to you for your help in securing good health and
one of the sweetest, dearest, thirteen pound
rirls that ever came into a home." writes Mrs. M.
vastine, of 647 South liberty Street. Galesburg,
111. "I took six bottles of Dr Pierce’s Favorite
Prescription, four of the ’ Golden Medical Dia
covery and four vials of Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant
Tellets. Before I had taken four bottles of the
* Favorite Prescription ’ l was anew woman, I

shall by force or violence impose Its Ideas
upon any other.
“Fourth. Philippine funds shall be ap
plied as follows: A. To maintain a hospital
for the wounded and sick Filipino soldiers
now in the field; B. To succor the invalid
Filipino soldier; C., to create a university
in Manila and four official institutes, one
in Manila, one in Vigen, one in Nueva
Caceres and one in Iloilo, all under the
protection of the United States govern
ment.
"Fifth. Our political rights shall be ex
ercised after the manner determined by
the American Congress.
‘‘Sixth. Any person holding funds be
longing to the government of the Filipino
republic shall deliver the same to the
American government established in Ma
nila, failing in which such person will be
prosecuted as a swindler.
"Seventh. Municipalities will be ruled
by the legal expression of the will of the
people, and each province may name a
representative delegate. These del
egates may make known their
desires to the American Civil
Commission, which in turn will
communicate them to the government at
Washington, and the latter will lay them
before Congress. These delegates shall
have the right to appeal directly to the
administration and to Congress; there to
make known their wants.
“Eighth. The friars shall be excluded
from the administration of the Philippine
Catholic Church.
For such a peace propaganda to be ac
ceptable to the Filipino people and more
especially to the more stubborn element
thereof, it must flatter them, and appeal
to their national vanity. They must be
cajoled into believing that they are in
sisting upon terms and stipulations from
the United States government, that con
cessions are. given them, that they are
still an import-ant factor in the situation
and that their consent is needed to any’
settlement. If such a peace programme
as the above appeals to their vanity, it
has a much better chance of being ac
cepted by them than were it a simple bus
iness proposition devoid of all sentiment.
Hence Buencamino makes a show of ask
ing much from the American government
in exchange for the cessation of hostili
ties and the recognition of American sov
ereignty’, while, as a matter of. fact, he
does not n. c k for a single thing of any im
portance that the military administration
has not already accorded the Filipino peo
ple. But, the mass of the people do rot
know this, because what the American
government has done for them has never
been concretely’ w ritten out and placed be
fore their eyes. Buncarnino practically
recites what the United States has al
ready done for the Filipinos and then says:
“We will ask for all this in exchange for
peace,” and the Filipino thinks those are
pretty good things to have and that they
constitute desirable and dignified terms of
capitulation. So it is that the. Buencamino
document is written for the Filipino people
and in that way which argues for its
quicket acceptance by them.
There are, however, one or two mis
leading statements In Buencamino's com
munication, notably that which says the
condition of the Filipino laborer has bet
tered w-ith the Increase of his earnings.
It is true the laborer in Manila earns
more to-day than formerly, but the In
crease in wage is in no way’ commensur
ate with the cost of living, so in reality he
is w’orse off than he was formerly.
Speaking to a representative of the As
sociated Press, Buencamino said:
“There are three elements operating
against peace in the Philippines to-day.
One i9 the friars, who in the ultimate ad
justment of the present trouble between
the Filipinos and Americans foresee the
final of their position and prestige in
the country, a well as of their properties
and wealth. I believe they seek to pro
long the struggle in the hope that
something may arise to secure their
standing in the country, and I believe
they are partly accountable for the re
cent rumors of a native uprising In Ma
nila. The second reason is the presence
ip Manila of certain hot-headed Filipinos,
who persist In stirring up the people, to
continued discontent with the American
occupation. These men may be called pro
fessional agitators and politicians, and I
think they should be sought out and sup
pressed. The third is the stiff-necked at
titude of the past military government in
refusing to treat with the Filipinos except
on the ground of total and unconditional
surrender. They seem to hove thought
the only possible way to terminate our
misunderstandings was by force of arms.
This I consider a natural result of mili
tary training. Men schooled in the use
of arms naturally believe the only way
lo settle a quarrel is to fight it out to a
finish. If this new commission comes
here with broader and more liberal views.
If they will approach the Filipino people,
or allow themselves to be approached hy
us, with some llttlo tact and some little
diplomacy; If they will give the men In
the field tho chance to surrender as men
and as soldiers, to surrender and still
be able to look their countrymen in the
eye. to still retain some honor (and it
would take such Insignificant concessions
on your part to make this possible), I as
sure you that pence will be a question
of a few weeks only.
“Aguinaldo is still the leader and the
Idol of the Filipino people. If your Civil
Commission will give an official and le
gal nnd binding assurance to him that
the individual and personal rights of the
Filipino people will be? assured and pro
tected, leaving the determination of their
political status entirely to your Congress,
peace will at once be effected. We rec
ognize your sovereignty throughout these
Islands; you have forced us to do that.
Whnt we now crasre Is your fairness and
your Justice. The Filipino question no
longer calls for violence and bloodshed.

to reasonable consideration at the hands
of their victors. It is a question of prin
ciple to which the application of princi
ples of justice and right will speedily
bring a peaceful settlement."
SENATOR GEAR DEAD.
D/attnftiilfthed lounlnn Passed Away
Unexpectedly.
Washington, July 14.—United States Sen
ator John Henry Gear of Burlington. la.,
died at 4:30 a. m. to-day of heart disease
in his apartments at the Portland in this
city.
While Senator Gear had been in 111
health for a year or more, death came
entirely unexpectedly. He was in excel
lent spirits last night and made engage
ments with some political friends for to
day. Shortly before 9 o’clock last evening,
accompanied by Mrs. Gear, he went out
driving with Secretary Wilson of the ag
ricultural department. They returned
about 10 o’clock, and the Senator retired
an hour later in his usual health.
Early to-day Sergeant-at-Arms Rans
dell of the Senate was notified of Senator
Gear's death and began to make arrange
ments for the funeral. The remains will
be taken directly to Burlington. la., which
for many years has been the home of
Senator Gear. A special ear will be at
tached to the Pennsylvania train to-mor
row afternoon for the accommodation, of
the funeral party.
Col. Ransdell communicated 40-day with
Senator Frye of Maine, president pro tem
pore of the Senate, who will name a com
mittee of senators to represent the Sen
ate at the funeral. Speaker Henderson
of Senator Gear's state also was notified
officially of the death. He will designate
a committee of the House to attend the
funeral.
Senator Gear left, besides his widow',
two daughters, Mrs. J. W. Blythe, wife
of <h© principal attorney of the Chicago,
Burlington and Quincy Railroad, and
Mrs. Horace Rand, wife of a prominent
business man, both residing in Burling
ton. Funeral services will be held in
Burlington some time on Wednesday. No
services are to be held here.
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson and Ad
miral W T a!ker of the Navy, accompanied
by ex-Senator. Pasco of Florida, railed at
the Portland early 4o tender their ser
vices and sympathy.
John Henry Gear was born in Ithaca,
N. Y„ April 7, 1*25. Ha received a com
mon school education in his native town.
In 1836 he removed to Galena- 111., and
two years later to Fort Snelltng, in lowa
territory. In 1813 he made his home in
Burlington,where he engaged in merchan
dising. He was elected Mayor of Bur
lington in 1863. Later he was elected a
member of the lowa general asse.mbly
and served three terms. During tha last
two of these terms he was speaker of the
House. He was elected Governor of lowa
in 1878, and again in 1880, He was first
elected a representative In Congress in
1886, where he served two terms and was
defeated for re-election. He was assist
ant secretary of the treasury under Pres
ident Renjamin Harrison, after which he
was again elected to Congress as a rep
resentative. In January, 1894, he was
elected United States senator from lowa,
for the term beginning March 4, 1895. His
term would have expired March 3, 1901.
Few men in public life were more gen
erally loved and respected than Senator
Gear. His was a beautiful character, and
political opponents, as well as political
friends, recognized his sterling worth. In
deed, some of his most intimate friends
were found among those who differed
from him in politics. His domestic life
was charming. He was a devoted husr
band and father and was a distinct favt
orite in a wide social circle. He was
known particularly for his unostentar
tious, but effective charitable work.

HIIATED PIPPIN APPLE CIDER.
This pure cider is served on steamer* on
the American line, and at the Waldorf-As
toila and leading family grocer* in New
York city
Paulding's Pippin cider is made from
Ihe pure juice of hand picked apples from
his own mill on the premises, it Is abso
lutely pure apple juice, and all the effer
vescence is natural, and we guarantee it
to be the choicest cider in the world.
Leading physicians in New York and
Brooklyn recommend this cider to their
patients its perfect purity Is guaranteed.
In Paulding’s Pippin cider, only Long Is
land Newton’s Pippins are used. The ap
ples are left on the trees until late in Oc
tober when they are hand picked and
placed In a dry room to ripen.
Paulding says “the apples are thorough
ly crushed in his own mill and the Julc*
pressed out and run into sweet clean
casks ” The difference between crushing
and grinding apples Is very great.
You will know the difference between
crushed app es and ground apples if you
take some stems and chew them, you will
find that bitter taste which is not with
Paulding’s crushed apples. This cider has
not the extreme sweetness or the Kusset
cider, and everyone will find the Pauid
'ngs Pippin cider Just right to take with
dinner. LIPPMAN BROS ,
