Letter From Manilla.
Receiver Satterlnnd has received a lat
er from John P»tarn'iu—Mm. Tatlsy's
oldert son—who is a member of Captain
Moffit's company. The letter was printed
in Wednesdny's Tribune and dated Man
illa, P. I., Dei 22nd. Here ix,th«j letter:
Th« weather here seems to be getting
warmer every day, which is bad for the
sick. We onlyjhave a few cases of sick
ness how, and thev will be well before
long. At one time Company A had
twenty fbnr on ,the sick report, they have
about ttii at the present time.
•yWboy* reoived their Christmas boxes
last Wiiek and they were tickled to get
fruit cacke moet all the boxes contained
'tablets, pencils, roap, towels. Iirnshes. etc..
they were as nsefnl tor our purpose as
anything conld be.
The cheif a port here among^jthe boys
is base and foot bid', 'hey have a game
daostvery day. Every evening there is
an open air concert Oil the Lunneta, by
the different bands here, and they draw
very large crowds of people, mostly Uncle
Sam's boys, but there are a few Spaniards
that enjoy our "national airs."
*. Thomas Peterson
of MoLean whom you are interested in is
as good soldier as there ia in the \oom
pany. Toin^hasstood tho trip flue and a
in excellent, health at present .he was in
the scrap on Ang. 18, and heard the music
^Ttoe-tMaeaes*-.-?--w
Two boys and iir yself at over and
visited the Paco cem'oi«ry last-week, and
were well^ rwarded for onr visit. The
Spaniards never hnry their dead in the
gjound, bnt bury them within the two
large walls snrroaading the cemetery
they are obliged £to pay five ye ar's rent,
as soon as one is bnried, and at the ex,
piration! of Ave years, if the rent isn
forthcoming, the corpse is drawn out'of
the wall and thrown iu the. bone pile.
We al»o visited the bone pile and it was
enough to give a person the horrors.
While there we looked over th° graves, we
haven't any bnried there yet and hope w*
never will. Our regiment hits five bnried
thlefe there is a slab erected over almost
every:grave. There was a burial of one
of the 14th Infty. while we were there, and
it was very sad.

Be loth to sever frplndshlp'b ties.
iUreat, Indeed should be the cause.
Though the iwlsoned tounj of envy.
May have pictured many flaws
In some freiml considered worthy,
Still forbear thy friend to slight,
Wliatbeem mountains raised between tliec—
Truth may banisli with Its lU ht.
How oft, wiien lives are dmwn apart.
Icy colduoss isomes between
And where sweet flowers of friendship flowed
Naught but barrenness is seen
We should be slow to take offence,
Di:t deeds of kindness render
The kludost ways are always best—
Be tender, t, be tender.
Perfection, we may never And.
In thlf life, In any breast,
Tet some are noble, good and kind.
And with er.erous nature blest
ltut few posess suffielent trace
To obey the great eemmaud,
'•Go, love thy neighbor as tlivself,"
Give to him a willing hand.
In judgine, be not to severe ,~
Mark the path the Master trod,
The sinner ana tiie sulnt all:te
Are aeenuntable toUml
Then show forbeiirauce and forgive
If thou woulds't be forgiven
For only such ean walk with Chrlbti
Or roach tho^ilghctt heaven.
After a few more fleeting years,
I'alns and pleasures here will end.
The body shall return to earth,
And with kindred dust shall blend.
Oh, soul of patience »nd forbearance,
Ulnst with pure, swent charity,
With love ti» God and love to man.
Thou nacd'st not fear Eternity
—Adam Scholes.
Grand Forks Plaindealer: The Indians
out went say that. John Satterlnnd ia their
friend. Another case of pure "ccn." After
copying the above the Bottineau Courant
say":
Yes, .and the "pure con*' will not be
misplaced either. There is no trner or
firmer friend, nor harder fighter, any
where than John Satterljnd, and his
friendship is worth having at'any turn of
the game. The- Indiaus of Fort Berthnld
—the Maudans, Arickarets and Mios Ven
troH of whom we know something—did
right in piaoing their confidence in Mr
Satterlnnd—he wilt not betray them
Long life to him.
Beaumont Daily Enterprise
We trust that our readers v?ill
not get expansion and imperial
ism mixed up. The Unitec
States has been continually
expanding since the firi
teen states formed a union ant
''ffiere-''' hat'afars^ beeorS
opposed to expansion fop dif
ferent reasons but whose ideas
never prevailed. As long as
there is a chance for expansion
of American ideas and business
enterprises the masses of the
people will favor it. In princi
ple it is as wrong to deprive a
few thousand Ksquimeaux ol'
self government as it is a few
million Filipinos. No true
American wants to depreive
cithereof them of any of the
liberties we prize and there is
no danger of such a result, but
we would be foolish to cast- a
side any of the commercial ad
vantages, that have resulted
from our victory over Spain
and the consequent opportunity
to spread the true doctrine of
liberty throughout tho world.
If we do this Bartlioldis grand
statue in New York harbor is a
misnomer as weli as the motto
on the old liberty bell which
proclaimed our independence.
To leave the Philippines nov
would mean their acquisition
by some other nation, which
does not understand the mean*
ing of liberty, or else an^ a
bortive native government
which would retard civilisation.
We hope to' discuss this ques
tion more fully in the future.
