The interviews published by The Call have given to the people of the United States the first definite, accurate description of the islands which have already cost so much in American life and money. In recognition of the importance of the subject The Call presents again this morning a new series of interviews, based upon the queries al- ready outlined. The troops of Nebraska have furnished the information, which differs in no essen- tial particulars from that already given. The soldiers are practically unanimous in,_their conviction that ‘the Philippine Islands hav added nothing of wvalus to the material prospect of Americans. Unfavorable conditions of climate outweigh whatever advantages the land may possess. Unfriendly latos and alien ownership preclude any hope of easy possession by Americans. ren as an industrial prospect, much less an agricultural one, the islands for wwhich American armies are fighting is not, in the opinion of the soldie rth None of these men, who speak with knowledge and judge wcith intelligence, want to hich they fought.
