NOTES AND COMMENTS....

THE AMERICAN TROOPS.

Probably no better example of the effects of the Philippine campaign ou the American troops exists than the men who arrived to-day in the Tartar. They may have been a fine looking lot of fellows when they first left the United States for servico, in the Philippines, but to-day they cannot be so classed. Here and there a man is to be met who looks as though matters had agreed with him; but the greater proportion.are thin and attenuated and show evident signs of the ravages of the Philippine climate. The men state too, that Jhey are returning about fifty per cent. short of their original complement, so in all pro- bability we only see the pick of them here, if what the men state with regard to the it being a case of the survival of the fittest.

conumissiariat arrangements is true,, and we have no reason to doubt their story, then bad and unsuitable food is probably as much to blame as the effects of the Philip- pine climate for this state of affairs. Who can wonder at the men being ansious to return home 7. No doubt they are as ready and willing to fight as our own troops when occassion, requires, but when the authorities lack the knowledge, or the will, to make things as easy os possible for the men it is only natural that they should grow disgusted and not be anxious to volunteer for a further period of service.

+

WHO IS RESPONSIBLE? Somebody must be responsible for this. state of affairs and whoever the responsible. person or persons may be the fact should be brought home to them and they should be made to answer for their incompetence ar neglect. There has been a great nutury in the United States of late over the conduct of the Philippine campaign is said that affairs have been grossly mismanaged and that the truth has been carefully witheld from the American people. No better proof of mismanagement as regards the care of the soldier conld be produced' than the landing of the Turlar's troops in their present condition at an American port would give. But this cannot be done. The voyage across the Pacific will pull the men together and their friends will have no opportunity of seeing them as we have had 10-day fresh from Manila. If only these who are against this useless slaughter and sacrifice, of both Americans' and Filipitios, chuld see these men now-they would not require a more patent proof of the truth of their assertions that mismanagement has been at the root of it all. The men themselves that the conquest of the Philippinca is not worth the expenditure in blood and money, and doubtless their friends will agree with

them,

A NEW CENSORSHIP.

Apparently however, a new system of censorship is to be applied in the United States, It is not enough that newspaper correspondents should be gagged, but the returned volunteers are to be prevented from airing their opinions upon matters also. Therefore we do not think that the men at present here will be allowed free liberty of Ladies and Children's Under-clothing Chil-ing clipping from the New York World will speech on their return home as the follow:
