Tamagno will be the Samson. Saint-Saens has just sought safety from wars alarms by hurrying home from the Canary Isles, where he has wintered for several years. He was met at MarseiIles by large crowd of admiring friends. Without any delay he hurried on to Beziers, in thearena of which town the first performance of his new opera "Dejanre" is to be given if the war does not inter- vene The composer expressed himself as delighted with the vast and grandiose amphitheater in which the opera is to re- ceive its initial performance

THE CAPTURED COLONIES.

N an address delivered the presentation of a
 battle flag to company of Indiana volunteers on Tuesday ex-President Harrison said: We may justly think in the West Indies and i'll the Far East seas where gallant navy has won so splendid a victory, hold some little unpeoped harbors where our cruising warships may coal and find refuge when in stress"
 Mr. Harrison, while not in office holds so high a position in the politics of the country that this state ment may be regarded tentative expression de- signed feel the pulse of the people the important and far-reaching question what IS to be done by the United States with the Spanish colonies in the West Indies and in the Orient. Cuba will of course pass into the hands of the Cubans themselves as they organize government capable of main tanng itself and establishing law, but what shall be done with Porto Rico and the Philippinese
 The latter group involves the serious ques- ton of the two In the Philippine archipelago there are upward of 1900 islands of which about 400 are large enough to sustain permanent populations. The total number of inhabitants of the group is in round numbers 100000. Of these the greater number are Malays There are few Spanish, hardly more in dustrious or enterprsng than the natives and the in dustry and commerce of the group is mainly in the hands of Chinese
 Tn 1894 the total imports of the group amounted in value to $2853oooo and the exports to $33,25ooo both measured in Mexican coin, which is the prevail ing standard of the country The real wealth of the islands has, however, never been developed It is known that gold and coal exist in the mountains of some of the larger islands, but they have not been mined extensively exploited by of lack of transportation In the hands of an energetic race the group could be made of the richest colonial possessions the globe.
 The occupation of port of refuge and coaling station in the archipelago by Government would inevitably imply American protectorate over the whole Our responsibilities would increase from year to year. and exercise of power would have to increase with them In colonial affairs as well as in all other matters in this world the law of evolution

ENCOURAGING ADVANTAGEOUS EVA
 SION.

- OR three days C. P. Huntington, president o1
 the Southern Pacific, has been testifying before the Board of Railroad Commissioners Inc three days have been wasted. The witness has nor revealed fact. The questions asked him have been for the most part wholly irrelevant or concerning matters already of record and ascertainable by the opening of book.
 If some query bordered on practical investigation Huntington has proessed the greatest willingness to answer 1t, has used 1t text illustrate the gen. erosity which he frankly acknowledges to have been his lifelong inspiration has taken excursions into the realm of his own boyhood and ended by ignoring the question altogether. H. has simply told the Commis sioners nothing has played with them and made their session spectacle suggesting comedy. The ofhcias have listened patiently to Huntingtons assertion oft repeated that he made money out ot California roads, that he built the transcontinenta line at loss never yet made good that he and his associates are poor men, continually growing poorer. With all reasonable pity for MT. Huntngton's poverty, the subject has been exhausted.
 The public wants to know how much money the Southern Pacific has expended in the corruption ot legislatures courts, individuals newspapers; partlcu- larly newspapers There Is burning desire to ind out why for period of months the Examiner was on the payroll of the corporation for 5000 monthly 1t IS idle feeling of curiosity which makes the pubic yearn for details as to running account with that paper amounting to S36,ooo and never closed Was the charged up to loss? Who bore the loss? The public suspects itself of being the victim MT. Huntington should be asked if the Examiner was paid by his phanthropic band trle of $7oeo for the printing of a speech delivered by Creed Raymond, and if when the Pattison committee here the dis erect silence of Hearsfs journal not purchased for $5ooo?
 Such are few of the things Huntington can tell about fully and he has expressed wish to tell all he knows. Surely the commission does not intend to deny him the opportunity he craves Surely 1t must be tired of asking him questions which he declines to answer and to which the answer would be of no value So far he has handled them with the he handles his walking-stick It is their duty 1t should be their joy, to put to him interrogatories which cannot be evaded to bar quibbing, anecdote, reminiscence, prophecy, and get down to business.

prevails When once a thing has been started 1t either advances retres-des or grows. SPaln s colonial power Is dying; that of the United States stands waiting the decision of the people III ths crisis
 What shall we do with the Philippines? IS ques- ton whose answer involves not only present cond- tions and American interests but the whole course of our future history and the affairs of the world It IS an issue not to be settled lightly and is even pos sible that the settlement may not be left to our u- trammeled will It not infrequently happens that even the greatest and strongest nations sometimes compelled by circumstances to go forward when they would prefer to stand still.

The people of Madrid are a theater- going race, and when money was wanted recently to buy new warship, with all the modern appliances, for war against the United States, 1t was unanimously re- solved to raise the sum by a big musical and dramatic performance at the Theater Royal. The continental papers have since announced that the receipts of this performance surpassed the record even of Patti or Melba's big receipts. People vied with one another in giving high prices for the seats. The Queen Regent set the pace by giving S10,00O for her box and each of her Ministers gave 5000 for his seat, while the banker Larois paid S3O, 900 for one chair in the orchestra stalls. Wealthy Countess Cornos paid $2o 900 for her seat, the Marquis Laguna $5000 and the Bank of Spain bought box for

CALIFORNIA'S RESPONSE.

' IHILE in many of the larger States of the lH East the call for the National Guard to enlist in the Volunteer Army for the with Spain has been met by less wrangling, the response of California prompt, direct and patriotic. Ar engagements for enlistment were made at once, and yesterday considerable portion of guard passed formally into the service of the nation.
 By this action California has new distinction in the sisterhood of States Her star in this crisis shines among the brightest in the brilliant galaxy that iumines the flag of the republic She has given the striking proof of the ardent patriotism of her people and has shown that when the call to arms is heard her volunteers wait decide little ques tions of minor moment but rally the stan- dard and hasten among the foremost the front no
 matter in what part of the globe the sound of battle is heard
 In times gone by there has been much testing the expense of the National Guard. The men who com pose 1t have been called holiday soldiers and hab itua satrists have made them the target of whatever shafts their Tagging wit unfaggng mockery could fashion for use. This railery is now thing of the past. The conduct of the members of the guard re- vealed in the fierce light of has proven them to be of the true heroic breed-worthy descendants of the generations who the freedom of the land from Great Britain and maintained 1t through the perilous years of Civil War.
 It is time now for Ca1ifornians who are to remain home to manifest their honor for the boys of the guard who going to the front. It is no holiday task for which they have volunteered They have up- held the credit of the State by the aacry with which they have responded to the call of war; and they will gaantly uphold the nations honor and cause in the field. The voices of the old-time satirists will now be changed to voices of praise silenced amid the general acclamations of the people. A grateful na- ton and proud State will speed the volunteers of the guard on their march to battle and victory
