Death of John N. Grace.

The 'many friends Of John NJ. Grace,
son of Thomas Grace, pioneer settler Of
st. Paul, will regret to hear of his death
which occurred at the family residence
1872 West Fifth street, at S o'clock last
Monday afternoon. The deceased had
been victim of consumption, which did
not, however, develop acute symptoms
until three months ago. Up to the time
of his serious illness he was employed as
an inspector of customs at the federal
building. He leaves wife and two chill
dren. The deceased was 40 years of age,
and was esteemed and respected by a
wide circle of acquaintance The fu-
neral took place on Wednesday. Services
were held at the Cathedral, and a long
cortege followed the remains to their last
resting place in Calvary cemetery.

Philippine Annexation,

Such an acquisition would not
strengthen us in any respect. On the con-
trary, it would be constant drain upon
our resources without any substantial
compensation for the country. Even
when not in state of actual insur-
rection, the people are turbulent, cruel
and unmindful of the rights of persons
and property. and it will require a most
vigilant administration of the law by
honest and capable officers to preserve
order among them. even in the most
enlightened parts of the islands. while in
some parts it is at least doubtful
whether this can be done at all. Spain
has tried it for more than three CEN
turtles, except in the Sulu group, and has
sisnally failed. Millions of dollars have
been expended and thousands of lives
have been lost in vain effort to en-
force obedience to the laws and customs
of a country having form of ecclesi-
astical and civil government which they
were at least partially able to under
stand, and yet, when the hour of trial
has come, Spain found them her most
malignant and savage enemies. IT we ac-
quire the islands we may have the same
experience. Being incapable of self-gov-
ernment, they must be controlled for a
long time, even as to their local concerns,
by legislative and executive authorities
of agovernment 5000 miles distant.
They will constitute the most exposed
parts of our national domain, and will
require a much larger expenditure for
protection than any other equal in area
within its limits. In all great wars the
nations having colonies and outlying de-
pendents have found them to be their
most vulnerable parts; and nearly every
island in the seas has passed, at some
period in its history, from one sovereign
to another by the operations Of war,
most of them having changed masters
many times. II we acquire the Philip
pines we will find it more difficult to
defend them against any great Europ-
can naval power than it will be to de-
fend the whole coast of the United States
against the same power. They will add
comparatively nothing to our strength
or prosperity in time of peace and they
will be a positive weakness to lis in time
of war.-John G.. Carlisle, in Harper's
Weekly.

Mr.. Pompous himself left the car at

THE project OF getting Hawaii" says
John Clark Ridpath in the Arena, has
excited the poetry of all simpletons. the
oratory of all sophomores, the enthusi-
assn of all American veal Now that the
islands are ours, the whole tenor of the
article in question invites the simple
tons, sopohomores and immature bo-
vines to effuse over the following fact:
According to the census of 1896 there
were 10000 people in Hawaii. OF these
21,S6S were British, German or Ameri-
can and s7,152 we're natives, half-breeds,
Chinese, Japanese and Portuguese.
''From this mass of ignorance, foreign
ism, ineXperience and depravity," says
Mr.. Ridpath, you are expected to pro-
duce American citizens He then sketch
es the growth of imperialism under the
glise of "insular ambition" and draws
a striking parallel between the position

purpose in writing the Globe is to pub

Standard. of this city, for the brave
stand 1t takes for John Lind and the en-
tire fusion ticket Mr.. Rosing and the
state committee have no adequate con-
eeption of the valuable work the Irish
Standard is doing.
Eustis has his enlissaries among the
Irish Americans of Minneapolis. I need
not give their names. Suffice it to say
that among them are bank-wreclers and
employees of the state machine, and all
these seryile tools were good Democrats
till a petty position seduced them from
the path of honor and righteousness.
Far better would it be for these rene
gadc Democrats to die like men, with
the motto of the crusaders of old
death before dishonor--on their lips
rather than accept a bride from the
lIannas of Minnesota.
To counteract these recreant Ameri-
cans, who so about stirring up race
prejudice, the Irish Standard shows up
the willy Eustis in his true light. 1t .ex-
poses his claptrap and warns citizens of
Irish blood not to be fooled by his pre-
tended friendship.

in his veins can consistently support w.
