ht who TALKS LEAST
WILL HAVE LEAST TO RECANT
IN THE FUTURE
Political Leaders Shy of Discussing
the Expansion Policy Till
Things Are Better Settled

WASHINGTON, Dec. S.-(Special Core
spondence to The Herald.) Conservative
politicians of both parties are beginning
to realize that the Philippine question is
not so simple as it seemed at first, and they
are becoming rather shy of discussing the
subject any further than necessary. 1t is
pretty well understood by now that this is
a time of transition and that he who says
least may have least to recant year from
now, when time has made good many
things clear.
1t is quite certain that the peace treaty
will be ratified, if not at the present session
then early in March at an extra session
1t is also certain that the Philippines will
be held under military control for at least
a year before any questions of territorial
organization, tariff, citizenship or constitu-
tional power can arise Careful statesmen
argue that there is no use in discussing these
matters now. They say, with Mr.. Hit of
Illinois, that in year we will know more
about the subject and can decide better.
In the meantime the only question has
been whether the islands were to go back to
Spain OF to be under our control and we
have chosen the latter as a temporary policy
that may or may not be made permanent.
Or they say with Senator Lindsay of Ken
lucky that the Vest resolution, declaring
that the United States has no authority to
annex territory except for coaling stations
unless with the intention of erecting it into
states, is very impolitic. The right to an
mex territory under the constitution was
settled years ago for all time says Mr.
Lindsay, "and it now devolves on Mr.. Vest
to show where that right is limited by the
constitution to territory intended for states.
There may be such an inhibition but | don't
know where it lies. We will get around to
that question in the future"
1t is generally agreed, except by the most
radical silver men, that the next presiden-
tal campaign is to be fought on subjects con,
nected with expansion, and it is felt that
extreme care must be taken to avoid false
moves in making up the record. The two
great parties are not yet a unit in policies
to be pursued and will not be for some time.
The real question, stripped of glittering gen
eraites, is whether the Philippines shall
be. held under protectorate open to the
trade of all nations, including ourselves, on
equal terms, whether they shall be held as
property of the United States with which
we may enjoy special trade privileges, CT
whether they shall like Hawaii be fully
and completely annexed as Territory, with
a capital I, and have their ports declared
domestic. All discussion of other points
seems, at present at least, to be mere airy
persihage.

A NEW PAPER
Santa Barbara to Boast Another Daily
Handsome Quarters

SANTA BARBARA, Dec. 3.-The
handsome building, Moorish style of ar
chitecture. that is being erected on Victoria
and Nloravella streets, opposite the Arling-
ton, for the new daily paper to be started
in January, is rapidly nearing completion.
1t is 50x69 feet, and altogether unique. The
protector OF this enterprise is putting in a
modern newspaper plant, including Mer-
genthaler. He has acquired by purchase
the weekly paper, Equity, which the new
journal will succeed, as well as the finely
equipped job printing establishment i'll
which it is printed. Hon. d. +. Hunt, a
member of the city council, of whom these
properties have been purchased, will have
general supervision of the new daily news
paper plant and its auxiliary branches. Pro
fessor c. y. Roop, for five years past SUI
perintendent of the Santa Barbara public
schools, will have charge of the business
department. \ city editor and a manager
for the Mergenthaler will come from the
east, but the staff will otherwise be made
up of home talent. 1t is understood that
c. c. Davis, one of Colorado's most success
full newspaper men and lately attached to
the editorial staff of the Los Angeles Her
aid, is to edit the new paper.

KINGMAN, Ariz., Dec. l0.-Capt. Alfred

Diana mine at Chloride from Robert Meara
for $4,000.
An extension of time until December Is
has been made to the contractors of the

turns were nine ounces of gold and lag ounces
of silver. The main shaft is now sixty feet
deep and the ore vein is three feet wide.
A fifty-ton ccNcentrator will be put up at
the Tennessee mine under direction of Prof
O. c. Trojanowski the millwright, and it is
thought that car a day will be concentrated.
Enough ore is in sight to keep the machine
running for some time after it starts. The
new double compartment shaft is down l5o
feet.

venting the paving from being torn uI
for the laying of water pipe, it has been
determined that water and gas mains
shall be laid inside the curbs, a space
of several feet being reserved for thai
purpose. This appears to be a gooo
scheme, except that 1t would require
