is likely to create something more than
surprise in administration circles, for it
has long been an open secret that the
president was to appoint President San
ford B. Dole, recognition fairly earned
by reason of his loyalty and zeal in the
cause of annexation, to say nothing of
the personal sacrifice which the success
Of his endeavors imposes upon him. To
turn down that worthy now, in favor
of man who cannot even be considered
resident of the country, will establish
a very bad precedent, especially in view
of the attitude of both the Republican
and Democratic parties in opposition to
carpet bag officialism. But Honolulu is
the whole thing, and If 1t should appear
that the meeting which Endorsed Sewell
was really representative, as stated, the
president will be placed in very embar-
RAISING position.

THE LAST ANALYSIS

One thousand men living in various
sections of the country have joined in a
call for national conference to discuss
the future foreign policy of the United
States. Saratoga is named as the place,
and August 1920 the date.
Perhaps the only just criticism of the
movement, so far as it has gone, is that
the conference should be held at more
central point, in order that wider rep
resentation of American thought may be
secured. The time limit is too short,
when the vastness of the theme is con-
sidered and the large attendance likely
to be attracted is taken into account.
But 1t does not follow that the session
may not be prolonged. if those who shall
take part In it SO decree.
There can certainly be no objection
to public discussion of so important a
problem, and If it be urged that mass
gathering. such as is contemplated, may
be easily packed in the one interest or
the other, II may beanswered that SO OBJ
yious q prostitution of the objects of the
meeting would defeat its own purpose.
The action OF the conference will have

A D1s1L1us1oNED PRESIDENT

1t is encouraging to learn that
the president and his advisers have
persuaded themselves, thus early,
that the United States owes lit
tie to the Philippine insurgents,
and that, in negotiating treaty Of
peace with Spain, consideration for their
future welfare is not to be allowed to
seriously embarrass them.
The course Of Aguinaldo, in setting
himself up as dictator, apparently with
the approval of his people, is held to
absolve this country from any moral
obligations to look out for him or them.
1t has developed that the insurgents
have given no end of trouble to Admiral
Dewey; that they have assumed very
imperious attitude, and shown no dispo-
sition to accept American advice as to
their movements. The conduct of the
revolutionists has been SUCH from the
landing of our forces at Cavite, as to
simplify the letting go Of the islands
by the United States, when its objects
shall have been achieved. Nor will 1t
take long to reconcile our people to the
loss of so uncertain an asset as the Phil
ippines, especially II Porto Rico and a
few needed coaling stations here and
there are conceded.

THE CROSS WITH THE FLAG

Representatives of various foreign
missions held a meeting in New York,
the other day, to consider plans for the
harmonious division of territory in Cuba,
Porto Rico and the Philippines, it be-
ing the purpose of the several boards
to establish religious propagandas in all
those countries, once they come under
the control of the United States. The
possibility of hitch in the imperialistic
plans does not seem to have been con-
sidered by those religious enthusiasts,
and the plans adopted comprehend an
early crusade in all the islands Of the
sea which may be wrested from Spain.
Not long ago the president received
an earnest appeal from the various mis-
sionary societies doing work in the Caro-
line islands, urging him to speedily take
them out from under the Spanish flag
1t is known that the Monterey, now en-
route to the Philippines, is expected to
raise the flag over the Carolines, and
we have In the incident noted a hint
that this will be done, not so much as
military as religious necessity, for
the Carolines present few attractions for
colonization.
The zeal of the religious propagandists
may not be criticised, except in so far
as it serves to delay the ratification of
a peace, for it is obvious that the church
influence that dominates Spain, and
which Is supposed to be laboring in the
interest of an understanding, will not
be encouraged in it's work by the pros
pect of a menacing religious crusade in
a field it has long practically monopo-
lized. The assertiveness Of the Ameri-
can missionary boards seems a trifle pre-
mature, at all events, and may prove en-
barrassing.

Sewell is the son of Arthur M. Sewell,

THROUGH EUROPEAN GLASSES

1t is the stock boast of statesmen Of
the protectionist school that, with the
home markets secured to the domestic
manufacturer, the United States can live
within itself, and ask odds of no other
nation. Producing ALI of the raw mate
rails that enter into the essential manu-
featured commodities, and possessing
the skill to economically manipulate
them, their ideal is an industrial condi-
ton that will exactly balance-a home
market for all of the products of the
soil, as well as the creations of the mills.
Impractical and illogical as this dream
may be, it could be realized more easily
by the United States than by any other
country, and for obvious reasons.
With Great Britain, Germany, France
and other European nations-manu-
featuring largely in excess of do
nestle consumption, and producing
vastly less of the raw materials
needed by their manufactures, plus
a vast shortage in food products for the
sustenance of their industrial workers
Without it the whole fabric falls to
pieces. Deprived of it and the founda-
ton upon which their civilization has
been built at once collapses.
What wonder, then. that Germany.
Austria, France, Russia and Great Brit
ain should enter into spirited COMPETE
ton for the trade of hundred million
people in the Orient, and be willing to
stake empire upon the procurement of
It? What wonder that they should view
with alarm the aggressiveness Of the
United States, which, while processing
to be content with the home market for
its domestic productions, is at the same
time making great strides toward domi-
mating the markets Of the world in
creasing its exports 100 per cent in a
single decade, by peaceful means alone.
and now threateing greater inroads into
their exclusive fields through the instru-
mentality of 13-inch shells?
If we marvel at the nervousness of
the German kaiser the grave apprehen-
sions of Nicholas, the serious concern of
the French minister of commerce and
the phenomenal friendship of Great Brit
ain for the United States, we may find
some explanation for it in the subjoined

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
White and Colored Soldiers

The superstition that American negroes
are better adapted for military service in
the tropics than whites is a mistake to be-
gin with. And the next and most import
ant consideration is that in any case racial
disturbances in some degree are bound to
occur. The white soldiers of the Southern
states can endure the hardships Of the
West Indian climate, and, in fact, any sort
of physical hardships, better than the
American negroes can for many reasons.
They are susceptible to more intelligent
discipline and can be depended upon to
conform to the ordinary rules of health
which should apply to camp life in the
tropics. Dallas, Tex, News.
