What Shall It Profit Us?

Secretary Cages startling an
nouncement that he had been COM
pletely converted to imperialism
has been the leading subject OF
comment and discussion in the
press and among thoughtful men.
1t has called out many expressions
OF approval and also Of reproachful
disapproval.
Ofthese latter perhaps the aOlest
is Andrew Carnegie's letter. Mr..
Carnegie took Mr.. Gage on his
own ground--commercial expan-
sion-and, speaking as an expert,
declared:
1. That the acquisition Of the
Philippines would bring us into the
"zone OF wars and rumors Of wars" "
and thus, without any compensa-
tion of added commerce Of value,
would unsettle trade and decrease
it.
2. That foreign nations would
not permit us to inclose our acqui.
sitions within our high tariff walls
without the angriest protests.
3. That the laboring masses
would be enormously burdened,
and at the same time would be
brought into unequal competition
with cheap labor.
AT the same time Profs. Thayer,
of Harvard and Baldwin, of Yale,
took up the constitutional aspects
of the matter.
Prof Thayer said sit would be
madness" Tor US to take in these
remote populous and barbarous
islands without first amending the
Constitution so that mo region
beyond sea should ever be:ome a
State of the Union" And Prot
Baldwin said it was "a doubtful
point" whethlr the inhabitants OF
the Philippines would become at
once entitled to all the privileges
OF citizens OF the United States.
If the Philippines are to place US
"within the zone of wars and
rumors Of wars" and also place
our laboring masses within the
zone of labor at Chinese prices, il
without amendment to the Consti-
tuition they are to form a menace
to the dignity of labor. of citizen.
ship and of Statehood, then what
shall it profit us7
Decreased foreign trade, sacri-
fees OF lives Of soldiers and civil
servants, additional burdens ol
taxation. says Mr.. Carnegie.

Al THE THEATRES.

The mere mention OF the names of
Melbourne MacDowell and Blanche

pure, wholesome and grand N dramatic
art. They will be seen in a grand re-
vival OF Fanny Davenport'sp productions
of Sardou's " Antony aud Cleopatra" )"
LA Tosca," and Fedora" at the La.

Aside from the magnificent Egyptian
Surroundings of "Antony and Cleo.
patra," the story that is illustrated is in
Sardou's most dramatic style. Tragic
love Of the naughty and heroic Marc
Antony and the daring, wiltul, wise and
powerful Cleopatra are handled in the
modern French style OF dramatic art
so that the spectator is not allowed Tor
one moment to let his attention wander
or his interest flag.
For this production the cast has Deen
much strengthened, the chorus enlarged
and the orchestra augmented. Some
thing extraordinary in scenic effects is
promised.

Smash the Ship Trust.


1t is fortunate that the ind ca
tons of a war ship trust have ap-
peared in connection with the con-
structlon OF four vessels of doubt
full value, instead OF with the ships
on which the power of our navy
will depend. The conspiracy can
be nipped at this stage with no seri.
Gus harm to anybody but the con
spirators.
1t appears that the builders who
were willing to furnish a,7oo ton
monitors at S3I5 a ton have de
cided, on comparing notes, that
vessels OF 1900 tons are worth $500
a ton, although a little while ago
they thought $500 a fair rate.
The Navy Department is uncertain
whether TO ask Congress to annuI
the contracts or to pare down the
efficiency OF the ships and the pro.
lection Tor their crews to satisfy
the rapacity Of the contractors
within the limits of the appropria-
ton.
The men who are thus impair.
ing the nations delences to in
crease their own profits are not
only branding their patriotism as
counterfeit, but are killing a goose
that has laid a number of exceed
inely profitable golden eggs, and
may be expected T. Law many
more If given fair chance. The
Government is not the helpless
quarry Of the shipbIilders 1t is
under no obligation to pay exor-
bitant prices ior vessels. 1t could
buy them abroad il il chose, but
tha is not necessary. 1t can build
its own ships as we'll as It makes
ITS own guns. The performances
OF the Maine, the Texas, the Gin
cinnati and the Raleigh, all built
in the navy yards, prove it's lnde-
pendence. There were signs Of
war ship trust when the Cin-in-
natl and Raleigh we're to be laid
down. but the construction OF
these vessels in Government yards
smashed the combination. The
cruisers were said to have cost
more than if they had been built
by private establishments, but the
effects on the contractors were
well worth the money.
We ought to have hall a dozen
thoroughly equipped shipbuilding
olants in our navy yards. Let the
private builders understand that
in every competition they will have
to bid against the Government,
and there will be no more trouble
with rapacIous combinations.

our Civilization MIL.

The United States have shown
extraordinary capacity tor success

tion coming to US from every part
OF Europe.
Every human element that is
amenable to the influence OF our
great civilizing iorces-LibertY
and Equality, a Free Press. Free
Schools, a Free Church and the
ballot-has been or is being trans
formed Into the material Of which
Republics are made.
Our only failures, partial or total,
have been with the colored races.
The aborigines, though they
possessed some strong traits Of
character, we have been obliged to
kill or pen up in reservations.
The negroes we held IN slavery
until compelled to free them by the
eXigencies OF war. We endowed
them with the suffrage and or
dained in the Constitution their
equality of rights. And yet now,
more than thirty years after eman-

Senator Raines has an amend
ment to his excise law, providing
that all matted liquors shall be
kept tor a certain period before
being put on sale; that they shall
be subject to certain tests as to

Raines to frame a bill to provide
a certain number of inspectors and
other officials to see that the pro-
visions OF the bill are carried out.
Another bill has been drafted in
Albany, providing for the dividing
Of the State into districts, with a
commissioner, deputies, inspectors
and clerks, who shall have charge

welcome TO General Gareta

General Calixto Garcia, who lett
New York three years ago fugi-
tive to escape Imprisonment for
the crime Of serving his country,
American law deeming him fili-
buster, returns in official dignity
as Commissioner Plenipotentiary
OF the Republic Of Cuba to Presi-
dent Mckinley.
But the change IN General Gar
cia's legal status works none in the
place which he has ever held in
the esteem OF the American peo-
pie. His deeds in the ten years
struggle for liberty won him tame
as a soldier and patriot who gave
all to his cause. That fame has
been enhanced by his heroic per-
formances during the war which
has ended with the expulsion oi
Spain from Cuba forever. A brave
and skIlful general, a high-minded
gentleman, educated, acquainted
with the world and familiar with
our institutions and people, Gen
eral Garcia is peculiarly qualified
to represent at Washington the
high interests that have been com
mitted to mis- charge. At the
national capital, and wherever else
he may go in this Republic, the
distinguished Cuban will be re
ceived with the warmth and con-
sideration which are due to his
character and renown.

just as our papers have daily done
against Germany. The Post then
continues:
For the German people, either in
Europe or America, we have only the

that 10 the German government the

Fight for Pure Beer Arouses the
Brewers

Fight for Pure Beer ArouSes the
Brewers
Senator Thomas {. Platt's state
ment that "Pure Beer" bill will
be preselted to the Ne y York Leg
islature this winter is still the sub
iect OF discussion with the brewers.
They say they DO not object to a
"pure beer" bill, but they do fear
that they may be Disseminated
against in favor OF brewers in other
States.
The liquor dealers all favor
"pure beer" and declare they will
do all they can 70 help Senator Platt
in his effort to secure It.
The trouble about framing a
pure beer bill is that nobody seems
to know Just what "pure beer"
actually is. The brewers declare
their product is as pure as hops,
malt and Croton water can make it.
There is absolutely no standard tor
pure beer to-day
The brewers have decided to lay
the matter before { oneress and let
Congress fix a standard This
would give every brewer a fair
show.
The only censor Of the brewers
to- day is the State Board of Health.
But there is no law which compels
the brewer to use malt and hops
onlV. AS matter of fact corn is
freely used in the manufacture Of
beer. Some brewers use rice as
a substitute for corn.
Col. Frank Ehret said that there
vas absolutely no harm in the use
Of corn IN beer.
"Corn is nutritious" he said.
GAS for rice, the Chinese live on it
altogether.
Gallus Thomann, manager Of
the United States Brewers Asso-
citation, objects to the passage OF a
measure by the State Legislature
that will discriminate against the
New York brewers and permit
outside brewers to food the New
York markets with impure beer.
Col. Jacob Rupert, Jr, Con-
gresham elect, said:
The beer brewed in this city is
what the taste and purse of the
public demand, Some brewers
make their beer lighter and others
heavier, but It depends upon the
taste OF the customers. A national
law would be iair TO everybody"
Peter Doelger, Jr,, said beers as
heavy as some Of the German beers
would not sell in this country. He
said that in Bavaria only were malt
and hops used exclusively IN the
manufacture OF beer.
Charles Doelger, Of Joseph
Dodgers sons, said that the brew
ers had absolutely nothing to tear
from any law for purity Of beer il
everybody got tair chance.
David G. Yuengling, Jr., said
that il the proposed pure beer bill
contained a clause that no beer
should be sold as standard which
had not been brewed at least three
months, light beer would be driven
out OF the market.
Otto Huber said: IL believe that
most Of the brewers would be in
favor Of the bill if it was so framed
that outsiders could not come IL
with an inferior grade without
labelling their beer. New Yorl
