OUR BARGAIN WITH SPAIN.


The treaty of peace is finished. 1t
is ready for signature. Congress will
have it within a few days. The terms
agreed upon are substantially as fol-
!o..s:
First-The customary preface of
treaties, in the nature of an expression
of amity and of hope for perpetual use.
Second-The REIMBURSEMENT by Spain
of her sovereignty over Cuba.
Third-The withdrawal of the Span
ish troops.
Fourth-The REIMBURSEMENT by Spain
Of her sovereignty over Puerto Rico.
Fifth-SDain's cession of the Philip
pines.
Sixth-The withdrawal of the Span
ish troops there.
Seventh-Payment by the United
States of $20,O00,OOO for the Philippines.
Eighth-The provision for the open
door" commercial policy in the Philip
pines.
The only Objectionable feature is the
agreement to pay large sum of
money for the Philippines. All the ex-
actions imposed by the representatives
Of this government should meet the ap-
prevail Of congress. The advisability
of taking charge of these islands is no
longer a debatable question. The ne
cessity for purchasing islands at this
time is not apparent.
The reason assigned for the retention
of the Philippines by the United States
is based on the belief that the fortunes
of war left them in the hands of this
government. The idea of responsible
ity for the islands has it's origin in
this belief
There is no excuse for paying Spain
$40, 900, 600 or 20 pesetas for the Philip
pines. Spain does not possess them. If
they do belong to Spain, then Dewey's
fleet and Merritt's army and Aguinal-
dos forces did not capture them. If they
never took them from Spain, whence
comes the moral responsibility we all
feel so keenly?
The money it is proposed to give
Spain as a compensation for her loss
or in exchange for a bogus title. If it
is benevolence, the sympathy is mis-
placed. If it is a bargain, we are fool
ish to give that sum to the SDaniard,
who is out of possession and out of
the way. The only people to do bust
ness with now. it would seem, are the
F'ilipinos. They are in possession.
They are the only ones in a position
to make trouble over the ownership.
Twenty millions is a big sum. 1t
should not be thrown away on a defec-
tive title, leaving another bargain yet
to he made.

KALAMAZOO.
Kalamazoo Telegraph

kalamazoo Telegraph
Have you heard the pretty legend, sad
and mournful, and yet true,
OF the brave and dusky lover and the In
dian maid MahZoo?
How Lney lived and loved and wandered
on the rivers shady shore,
HADDieSt of Indian lovers, IN the days
that are no more?
All day long the maiden labored, weaving
baskets by the stream,
Thinking of her love, her Kahla, weaving
him into her dream;
Then, as twilight came, descending softly,
family DER the land,
Mahzoo watched and waited, eager for
the, clasp of his strong hand.
She would climb into an elm tree Ger the
water hanging low.
While the shadows on the r1pples danced
and played and wayered SLOW.
Soon he comes-she hears the rowing of
his light birch-bark canoe, az,
"Kahlar' calls she; cries he, Coming,
coming to my own Mahzoo!'
All! one night she waits in silence; sad
her face--her love is dead!
Wounded in the chase, her warrior, in a
fortnight to be wed.
In the morn they find sweet Mahzoo lying
silent in the stream.
Gone unto her lover Kahla, nevermore to
watch and dream
Still the echoes DER the river may be
heard soft through the air:
Echoes of the warrior Kahla and of young
Mahzoo, the fair.
All the trees repeat the whisper, all the
rippieS murmurA too

THE PRESIDENTS FORTE.
Q, learned judgel

1t is amusing to read in the foreign
press the various views of the presi-
dents message.
The Pail Mall Gazette says: "In lam
guage of studied moderation, but which
leaves no room to doubt its meaning.
the president foreshadows the fixed de-
termination Of the government to stand
by the policy of the open door in the
east. That declaration brings the Unit
ed States in a line with US, if ever the
time comes to speak with enemies in
the open door way"
The English newspapers look upon il
as an olive branch of hope, in which
American support Of British aggression
in the east is automatically pledged.
The French papers are divided. For
instance, the Paris Liberte says: 1.-The
message constitutes a true manifest OF
new imperial policy OF the United
states. The American republic, which
has hitherto been voluntarily isolated,
enters with wings fully outspread into
the concert of the powers, and intends
henceforth to be heard, and will make
its intentions felt wherever it seems
good to it."
On the other hand, the Temps thinks
that, after perusing the message, no
one will be the wiser in regard to what
can be hoped from friendship Of the
United States or feared from her en-
terprises.
Germans are disposed to construe it
literally. They are disappointed, be-
cause the message contains no intima-
ton Of a colonial policy The National
Zenung says: The message generally
is couched in moderate terms and does
not indicate an intention to force an
entry into international politics..
All Of which goes to show that when
President Mckinley starts out to say
nothing, he car use up more words and
space and time in doing so than any
president that ever took up the time OF
congress with Pathological and evasiye
recapituIation Of current events.

A RESULT OF THE ELECTION

Judge Powers is convinced that non
partisan elections are a failure. The
Herald clings to the opinion that it is
possible, as we'll as desirable, to keep
partisanship- out of school affairs. But
the judge now refuses to acknowledge
even this
His conversion is due to the per-
nicious activity of his Law partner, the
versatile L;ppman, whose conduct in
the recent school campaign the judge
considers reDrehensible in the first de-
&-aa
1t is really too bad that professional
brethren, office companions, cannot
dwell together in harmony, but must
have an encounter on the house toDs.
in full view of an anxious and terror
stricken public.
The judge should call the recalcitrant
Joe into a back room of the office some
afternoon when business is slack and
devote a little time to his political ed
ucatioD. For it was Joe Lippman who
managed Mr.. NcEIillan's campaign and
who said, when asked his reason for
bringing out an Independent candidate:
This is the same old Mormon fight;
that's why we're doing it, and tell EN-
I said so. too"
This was more than the ever-alert
and astute senior member of the firm
could stand. His indignation flashed
up until the opposition was blinded by
its glare. And, at the risk of having
his motives questioned, owing to the
nearness of the senatorial election, the
judge yielded to the opportunities of
the reporters and told the people what
he thought of such campaigning. He
never faltered. He threw himself into
the breach needless of consequences.
One report says that Judge Powers
denounced the methods of the Lippman
crowd as scurrilous." Another runs
like this:
Judge O. w. Powers said that he
voted for 3. S. Young for the board
Of education in the Fourth precinct
yesterday afternoon. I found the
lines drawn between the Mormons
and Gentiles," said Judge Powers, las
closely as ever"
But the most remarkable result of
the recent school election. more SO than
the election Of Newman in the Third
or the majority Of Bamberger in the
Fifth, is this admission from the judge:
I think the school elections here
after should be conducted along par
tissn lines. We are drifting back into
the old conditions. In one precinct the
Mormons get up and fight the Gentiles.
IN another the Gentiles inaugurate the
trouble.
Q, learned judge!

form throughout the United States,
the administration prefers TO look upon
the islands as something apart from
this nation. Yet the United States, by
extension, comprise the whole territory
within the jurisdiction of the federal
government of those states.
Senator Vest of Missouri has intro
duced a joint resolution, the logic and
force Of which cannot be eombated by
those who maintain, in the interest of
Dingleyism, that the islands are de-
Tendencies and not part of this re-
public.
The resolution is as follows:
That under the constitution of the
United States no power is given to the
federal government to acquire territory
to be held and governed permanently
as colonies.
That the colonial system of Euro
pean nations cannot be established
under our present constitution, but all
territory acquired by the government,
except such small amount as may be
necessary for coaling stations, correc-
ton of boundaries and similar govern
mental purposes, must be acquired and
governed with the purpose of ulti-
mately organizing such territory into
states suitable for admission into the
Union.
Senator Vest is right. The constitu-
ton is not designed for government
which does not afford representation.
Dependencies could not have been rec
ognized by the founders of this repub-
lie without contradicting their own
pleas for independence.
Territory acquired by the United
States must be held and governed I'M
der the constitution and in accord with
encouragement and backing of every
the spirit of American institutions, with
the object of making it a state, a part
of a state or a number Of states of the
Union.
Against this policy the resolution of
Senator Vest cannot be directed.

WHY 1T is AN "oPEN DOOR"

One article of the peace treaty finally
decided upon, according to the cable
gram from Paris published yesterday
morning, provides for the open door"
commercial policy in the Philippines.
This open door" is what staggers
the average New England protection
ist they say. He views its possibilities
with more or less alarm, according to
the interest he has in some Atlantic
seaboard monopoly of trade.
The open door" carries with it a
suggestion of free trade between this
country and the islands, something that
is sure to come about in the course of a
little time, at least, as the constitution
viii not permit trade restrictions be-
tween different parts of the nation.
The peace treaty exacts the cession
of the Philippines and provides for the
payment of S20, 000, 900 to Spain for them.
1t is hardly likely that the United
States government will not include the
Philippines after they are doubly ac-
quired-by conquest and purchase. And,
being part of the country, there can
be no duties levied on goods shipped
from the mainland to these islands or
from these islands to the mainland
without violating the spirit of the con-
stitution.
The door of trade in the Philippines
is to be thrown open to all nations
alike, says Mr.. Dingley. The United
States viii have no privileges there that
viii be denied to other commercial pow
ers, is the Interpretation of the open
door, given by protectionists. But the
impression they seek to create, that
these concessions mean the unrestricted
entrance of our exports into China, is
based on no agreement to that effect
Nor does such a contamination, how
ever devoutly wished, follow the Ding
ley idea of an "open door" in the Phil
ippines.
A great many people wonder why the
tariff policy for the islands, as outlined
by the apostle of protection few days
ago, is not called the CLOSED door," in
stead Of the appellation which has been
given it.
The policy itself suggests the answer.
1t is an opening through which pro-
tectionists will try to escape from their
home market" humbug; it is a break
in the Chinese. wall of trade restriction
with which they have surrounded this
country while pampering sovergroyn in
FAINT industries and fostering trusts.
They need an ~open door" Dewey's
cannon broke the wall. The army has

Anti-expansionists have issued an
address to the people of the United
States, in the form of a memorial to
congress. The people are expected to
sign the sheets and forward them to
their respective congressman. An
endless chain concern has taken hold
of the matter, and issued similar
petition, each member to find ten as
sistants, each assistant to find ten
aides, until a million complete the
links of the section. If the politicians
could work up their contest against
Utah's congressman-elect in this way,
it might facilitate matters.
