DEMANDS INDEPENDENCE
We May Have to Spank Those
Islanders-
Manila, Nov. 8. —The great
est interest is manifested here
among all parties in the devel
opments of the Paris peace ne
gotiations.
Dispatches indicating the de
termination of the Washington
administration to annex the en
tire Philippine group are satif
factory to all classes of business
men here.
The insurgents are watching
the situation with concern.
Many leaders heartily favor an
nexation. A considerable fac
tion, however, opposes any thing
further than a protectorate, and
Aguinaldo favors this faction. A
few days ago Aguinaldo said to
an Englishman :
“We have fought always for
our independence, and we will
always light for it until our last
man is dead.”
This is undoubtedly largely
bluff. It indicates, however,
Aguinaldo’s increasing self-es
teem and also his unwillingness
to surrender his present royal
style of living, which surrender
he recognizes would be a neces
sary concomitant oi annexation.
The best students of the com
plex Philippine question are
becoming more convinced that a
conflict with the insurgents is
ultimately unavoidable.
WELL PLEASED CUSTOM
ERS.
We have sold hundreds and
hundreds ot the McCall Bazar
Patterns since we have taken the
agency, and upon inquiry of the
salesladies in the department,we
find that not one pattern has
ever been returned as unsatis
factory, and with hundreds of
sales, not one word of criticism
has ever been heard against the
McCall Patterns.
On the contrary many ladies
are delighted with the McCall
Patterns, because reliable, and
because the prices a:e only 10
and 15 cents each.—None High
