Judge Hudson, OF South Carolina, on
Account Of the great increase Of crime,
proposes as a measure for the prevention
of homicldes that law be enacted "to
CIT the evil up by the root by absolutely
prohibiting the manufacture, sale or
bearing" of the pistol which is claimed
to be the instrument producing nine out
of every ten homicdes. The remedy is
certainly very radical one, but of doubt
fnl efficiency. 1t will certainly not Grad
icate the homicide evil, since it makes no
provision against the manufacture and
sale of rifles, shot guns, knives and roi-
son. AS long as the murderous spirit
exists, and is not adequately restrained
weapons will always he found with which
TO commit IL crime. Legislation against
concealed weapons may be useful, bnt it
Is entirely. Inadequate: The only remedy
is to punish adequately those who use
weapons OF whatever kind unlawfuliy.

SENATOR MoRGAN's VIE VS.
We Can Hold Philippines as Colony
and Impose Tariff Against Its Citizens.

washington December 1.-Senator Nor
gan. of Alabama the ranking democratic
member of the foreign relations committee,
strongly indorses the doctrine, opposed by
so many prominent public men, that the
United States can hold the Philippines as
colony, impose tariff duties against its citi-
zens and exclude them from the franchise.
The senator said tonight:
sThe constitution does not enter into the
question at all. That paper was designed
to control matters between the states and
territories of the union and did not concern
itself about the outside matters. Our gov
ernment has as much right to hold colonies
as: France or England has and to make
such rules for their control as 1t may see
fit. We can impose a duty on Philippine
products exclude them altogether We
can exclude such of their citizens as we
may choose. In short, in foreign matters,
we may do anything that any sovereign
power may do, unless forbidden by some
treaty.
1.-THE treaty by which We acquired Alaska
declared that-it should become part of the
United States, and hence the provision OF
the constitution announcing that all duties
shall be uniform among the states came
into effect and prevents our imposing duty
against Alaskan products or charging one
on goods sent from this country into Alas
ka But unless the Spanish treaty provides
to the contrary, Porto Rico and the Philip
pines will not become territories of the
United States, but will simply be outside
possessions, not integral parts. Hence we
can put any duty against them that we
may choose. Why, take the case of Hawaii.
1t belongs to us. We own it, and yet We
continue to collect duties on its products,
Simply because congress has declared that
we should There is no question Of military
government. Hawaii has a civil govern
ment, and If we can maintain a tariff
against it for a moment, we can maintain
it forever. if we choose.
i.Further, we can If we desire, treat the
Chinese and other natives of the Philip
pines and of Hawaii just we have treat
ed the Indians. The government makes
treaties with these as If they were indie
pendent nations. 1t shuts them up on their
reservations and practically holds them
prisoners there. No Indian can leave his
lands and live elsewhere, except so far as
we may permit. There is nothing in the
world to prevent us from treating the
Philippines just as we have treated the In
dams, as subject tribes, whose lives we
regulate but who, nevertheless, are not
citizens of the United States and have not
the rights of citizens. The constitution
does not expressly give us this authority,
but, as l have said, the constitution has
nothing to do with the matter. 1t does not
give us the right to annex any territory.
but that has been held to be among the i'm
piled powers of the general government.
"Hence, If the president chooses, he can,
with the consent of congress, annex the
Philippines and hold them as our own
property, and yet maintain a tariff against
them. and even exclude their citizens and
products from the United States.''

Washington, December 1.-General Wood,

moved to the United States until Febru-

far advanced. General Wood says the re-
moval of bodies causes great alarm at San

taken away If the authorities here grant
permission. Applications continue to be re-
ceived at the war department from parents
and relatives urging that removals be au-

recommendation it Is probable that these
will be deferred for several months.

Mr.. Culp is one of the most successful
