POLITICAL NOTES.
The news from Washington indicates
that the Commanders are willing to sur
render if allowed to retain their sdg
arms and march out with the Sugar
trust flag f1ying.-N. Y. World Dem.).
If the people are to retain the fort
and the Commanders are only to have
the vanity, it might be well to accept
the terms of surrender.
There are too many anarchists already
domiciled within the United States, Mr.
| Mowbray should be deported.-Wash-
ington Star.
Anarchist Mowbray can do the
United States more good with his alb
sence than his presence.
This rampant rioting of ignorant,
| brutal aliens must ba stopped in Penn
sylvania If the civil authorities are
unequal to the task OF disarming these
murderous rioters, the military should
be called out and instructed to make
a short, sharp and decisive campaign
against alien lawlessness. To parley
with such people is simply to parley
with crime. and il has become an i'm
perious necessity for the state at once
to halt all such riotous demonstrations
in every section of the commonwealth.
| Philadelphia Times Dem.).
The time for parleying with organized
bands of criminals, no matter what
name they give themselves, is past
They must be suppressed whether aliens
or natives, and this the public senti-
ment demands.
The fact that the nearly 100000, 600
Of silver coin or silver certificates in
circulation possesses unquestioned vail
dity, and is as good for all practical
purposes as gold or gold paper repre-
sentatives, both illustrates the force of
national credit and answers the san
derous imputations against silver as
debased money.-Denver News Oem.).
When a silver dollar will not buy so
much as a god dollar it will be debased
and not until then.
ITO keep every dollar as good as
every other dollar, we must set our
share Of the gold; to get it we must
buy it, and to buy it we must sell our
bonds.'
The last paragraph of this able and
statesmanlike utterance the Times
commends to every student of monetary
science, either within or without the
Republican PAL ty And the symposium
of financial wisdom herein gained from
three representative Republican conven-
lions ought to sufficiently demonstrate
to the voter that the United States viii
get bmetallism from Republican Con-
gress about the same time that men
begin to gather figs of thistles.-Chicago
Times Dem.).
This puts the case of the Republican
conventions of Iowa, Illinois, and Wis
consin as regards silver as it is.
Commencing on the new Hawaiian
constitution, the New York Evening
Post Gnd) says:
In short, there is everywhere in the
document the appearance of guarding
against being showed under by the
natives, who outnumber US, as Mr.
Armstrong naively put the case. For
such an end the constitution is a very
good one, and we do not well see now
a handful OF men could better rule
great mass of conquered people under
the forms of liberty; but surely this is
not the sacred Hawaiian freedom. for
which so much precious ink has been
shed.
The careful manner in which safe
guards were thrown around the quail
ifcations to vote and the packing of
the constitutional convention made it
certain that new rulers were more anx-
ious to secure their hold upon the Of
ficers than liberty to the Hawaiians.
The Canadian government has
tremendous interest in the presidents
demand that coal shall be put on the
free list. For every ton of coal sent
from Nova Scotia to New England the
Canadian government receives II
cents. A Boston syndicate, at the in
stance. it is said, Of Mr. William G.
Whitney, one of its heaviest stock
holders, purchased the right to work
these exhaustless mines in anticipation
of the free entry Of coal into the Uni
ted States. Mr.. German solemnly
ayers that only the Canadian govern
ment and Mr.. Whitney's syndicate can
derive the least benefit, or any benefit
worth speaking about, from the free en-
try of coal, on which President Cleve-
land insists.-New York Commercial
Advertiser Rep).
What difference can it make whether
coal is free or not? According to the
Republican theory, if there is duty on
an article the foreigner pays it. So
the foreigner is bound to get his pau
per coal in anyway.
Concerning the condition of the treas
ury and the need to increase the gold
reserve. the New York Herald QnO
says:
The situation calls for prompt action.
The reserve must be replenished by
the sale of bonds. A vigorous effort
should be made to induce Congress to
pass bill authorizing a loan at three
per cent.
The thing for Congress to do IS to
hasten the passage of the tariff bill.
That will bring the desired relief
There is no necessity for any loan.
Mowbray may escape deportation be-
cause of our too liberal immigration
laws, but his escape will draw atten- |
ton to the defects in these laws, and |
this should lead UP to further legisla- |
ton which will allow the immigration |
latitude enough to deport |
those foreigners who have given public |
utterance to anarchistic doctrines

citizen and should be sent out of the /
The silver men claim that free coin
