sets down the glass, wipes his eyes on
the butt of his revolver and starts home
on a new rendition of the prodigal son
act. Of course, all of US have read
these stories over a hundred times, but
what of that? Does the great Chris
tian story of all-the divine story-ever
grow old and tiresome with repeating?
There have been many Christmases
since the first Christmas star shone
above a babys rude cradle, but the
Christmas spirit and the Christmas
cheer are just as true and real now as
they ever were. We like to think that
at such a time hard hearts are touched
with unaccustomed tenderness, that
stingy hands relax their closeness and
give to some less fortunate, that wan
derers on land and sea turn, in memory,
at least, to the old home where they
were children, and that at Christmas
some thought of innocence, some tear
of repentance and regret must come TO
the most hardened and degraded. 1t is
this thought of Christmas that runs
through the homely and familiar little
Christmas story, and we are better for
it. We can do without finely critical
essays, and orchids, but leave US at
and the holly and the mirth and cheer
and sympathy that never grow old CT

ERRORS IN THE STATEMENT.

The Woodland Democrat" says that
will be impossible to prevent the cheap
labor of the islands coming into cum-
petition with home labor, nor can the
prohibitive duties of the revenue sys-
tenn be applied to the case. The prod
ucts of the Philippines must come to
us untrammeled, because the Constitd-
tion provides that no preference shall
be given by any regulation of COM
merce or revenue to the ports of one
State over those of another.
All this would be true. but for sew
eral premise errors on the part Of our
esteemed contemporary. First and
foremost there is broad distinction be-
tween a State and a Territory, and a
still wider one between territory and
possessions" or property of the United
States. Territories are carved out of
possessions or property. All our his
tory proves that such has been the
steadfast construction put upon the
Constitution. When we take Islands
here and there, they become our prop
erty to do with precisely as we please.
They have no inherent or other right
to become either Territories or States.
This has recently been made very
clear by Professor McMaster, the his
torian and political economist, in
valuable paper upon the subject.
Secondly, we have the right TO erect
any barriers we choose between the
nation and it's property or possessions,
to prevent injury by unequal competi-
ton. This has been settled in Con-
gress and by decisions OF the Federal
courts, the latest being the Alaska
liquor cases. There are other reasons,
but these two are all sufficient.

ANOTHER VIEW OF EXPANSION.

By the courtesy of the Atlantic
abled TO present this morning half of
the text of Benjamin Kidd's reply to
the editor Of that periodical, III re-
sponse to questions addressed to him
concerning his views Of American ex-
pansion, on the basis Of his PROPOSE
tions laid down in Mr.. Kidd's work
upon Control of the Tropics book
that is exciting no little attention just
now
The article which we have introduced
with a PREDATORY statement of the case
win repay careful reading, and viii be
found to give rise to most suggestive
thought. It presents the views of a
locker on from the standpoint of a
student of history and of political econ
soned out" expression of nearly the
entire west of our country, why we
should control so much of the tropics
as have come into our keeping un-
sought, and by process of natural de-
velopment and the fruitage of a justi-
fable war
1t will be noted that the whole ar
gument hinges upon the statement that
control by no means involves coloni-
zatiOn. We invite the attention of all
thoughtful readers to the very sugges-
tive and interesting essay, which has
the merit of graceful diction and con-
ciseness. as we'll as those of scholarship
and lucidity.

reports this pest as steadily becoming
more numerous, until now it may be
considered one of the worst enemies
of the plum and peach trees of that
State. The introduction of the plum
curculio would reduce the profits of
prune, apricot. and cherry growers.
The fruit fly in Australia and the lar
vac of beetle. Doticus pestilens. in
the same country, burrow all through
the pulp of apples. completely running
them. The peach fly, in the Islands of
Bermuda, and a similar pest in Cape
Colony, makes peach growing for profit
impossible, as most seasons they have
not enough peaches for local consump-
ton.
The disgusting Mexican orange mag
got, if introduced into California orange
groves, would soon stop the consump-
ton of our luscious Navel and other
oranges. You can tell a Wormy apple,
but it is almost impossible to detect a
maggoty orange until it is cut. A new
worm infests apples in Japan, and it is
now reported in British Columbia, in
troduced from the former country.
You can kill the so-called San Jose"
-
the best insecticides will only kill seven
per cent of the destructive white scale,
Diaspis amygdali found in the West
Indies, Brazil, Australia, Japan, and the
Hawaiian Islands. This pest is very
general feeder. We have destroyed the
following trees and plants entering the
State infested with it: Peach, plum,
cherry, walnut, persimmons, tea, euony-
mus sage palms, and zanthoxylum.
The introduction of the so-called Jap
anese beetle (Adoritus umbrosus) from
Honolulu would be a bad importation.
On the islands they defoliate grape
vines, peaches, and in fact nearly all
kinds of trees and plants are subject
to their attack. The red wax scale"
was introduced into Honolulu few
years ago and now we find it upon a
great variety of plants brought from
there, as we'll as on the evergreen "leis"
or wreaths with which the Hawaiians
decorate their departing friends.
A great variety of scale insects for
eign to California are found on the ISL
ands. One species, the mining scale, "
Howarda (Chionaspis) biclavis, is one
of the most serious. This is the scale

cations with double and treble strength
hydrocyanic acid gas and two INNER
sions in strong insecticides. How could
such a pest be even held in check in an
orchard?
The list of dangerous insects could
be extended, but the foregoing will suf-
fee to demonstrate that the fruit grow
ers of the State should urge the passa ge
of bill that would reduce to a mini
mum the possibility of such pests or
diseases gaining a foothold or becoming
established in California orchards.

Ex-senator John Sherman goes down
in the history Of the nation as one of
her foremost men, unquestionably He
has served the republic for more than
generation, and his integrity has
never been successfully assailed But
old age has overtaken him with weak
ened powers and dimmed vision. He
now has the assurance to prophesy
dire calamity for US If we acquire more
territory. He sees the future Of his
country, which unQuestionably he loves
with ardent fervor, but cinly, and it
is not promising outlook according 20
his forecasts. He has even gone so far
as to speak Of Aguinaldo as in the
hope that he will prove the coming
George Washington of his people.
Which simply proves that Mr.. Sherman
is i'll informed concerning both Agui-
naldo and his people, The man has
not the slightest resemblance to a
Washington, either in his wisdom, his
courage or the promptings Of gen.
erous nature The Filipinos bear no
resemblance to the fathers who laid
the foundations of the American re-
public, whose blessings we enjoy. Mr..
Sherman could have made comparisons
and have found SMILES far more apt
in the history of the world, with which
he is assuredly familiar.

established a reputation for pretty
books are now reaping the profit While
other publishers who have neglected
their formats are in disfavor. Any
pretty series of books appearing in
monthly volumes, if it be good, is in

Christmas Stories.

1t is quite the custom nowadays,
among those who pose as being culti-
waited and critical, to express profound
contempt for many things we have been
in the habit Of enjoying. Among these
is the Christmas story, which seems in
a fair way of being ridiculed off the
face of the earth. Critics have as
sailed it from every point of view. de-
claring that it was a monstrosity and
an offense in the sight of art, and an
abomnation in literature. Rules and
recipes have been given by which the
most inexperienced could not fail to
compound a Christmas story that would
be as orthodox as the traditional plum
pudding. 1t is only necessary to take
a cold and bitter night, a garnet with
the wind whstling through the holes in
the wall, and within a woman with
starving children clinging to her skirts.
1t is the night before Christmas, and
the little ones ask pitifully If Santa
Claus will come. The mother makes
an evasive reply, and tucks them at
last in bed, and takes off her poor shawl
to cover them more warmly. She sits
down by fireless hearth and sobs,
ALAS, my poor Reginald; had you not
perished in the Klondike, we would not
now be starving" There is a knock
at the door, and enters a bearded man.
1t is the long lost Reginald, with 81
100000 of gold dust in each pocket. A
delightful sequel of plum pudding, tur-
key and general rejoicing follows Or
else the story may be the veracious and
probabl narrative Of the wayward son
who has ruined his father and broken
his mothers heart by his wild life.
Again it is Christmas eve, and he sits
carousing in the saloon. He lifts the
glass of liquor to his lips, but, hark,
