The Globe-republican., 1898-10-13

Some Of the anti annexationists
are intimating that the President is
yielding to pressure" on the Philip
pine question. This is only an in
direct way Of saying that the Presi-
dent is bowling to public opinion on
that subject. It is supposed that 1t
the outset he thought q coaling sta
ton in the Philippines would be en-
ough for us. Next he felt that we
ought TO have Manila and it's vicinity.
Afterward he decided that We must
have the island of Luzon, and now it
is believed that he wants the whole of
the islands. This is what the isola-
tionists call yielding to pressure"
It is in reality deferring to popular
sentiment. Undoubtedly the major-
ity of the people favor the annexation
of the whole Of the Philippines. The
sentiment in this direction was not
strong at first. but it has been grow
ing steadily, and now it prevades the
whole country. The question, when
it arose. was so novel that neither
people nor President grasped it in all
it's bearings at first. As they study
it, however. they begin to have de-
finite opinion about it, and this opin-
ion has impelled the country and the
President to demand the entire group
of islands.

That abuses have existed and per-
haps still exist, however, and that I'M
necessary suffering among the officers
and men called into active service
since April has been the result, we
are not disposed to deny. But there
is no doubt whatever that the suffer-
ing has been greatly exaggerated
both in extent and degree by the
politicians who are seeking to reap a
partisan advantage therefrom. They
seem utterly unable to comprehend q
fact which every soldier in camp or
field clearly realizes after even a
months experience, that he cannot
enjoy there all the comforts of home,
and that he must dispense with many
things he had been accustomed to
consider necessary. In other words,
the volunteer soldiers life is marked
by many unaccustomed but necessary
hardships and privations. The volun
teers of 1898, even though they got
no nearer Cuba than Chickamauga or
Jacksonville or Tampa, have learned
to realize this, and they do not com
plain Of it. So far are they from
doing SO that they resent the attempts
of stay at home politicians to manu-
facture partisan capital from the ordi
nary and necessary experiences Of
soldier life.

wloH1TA's TWO GREAT MEET.
1NdS.

The political situation in the CITY OF
Wichita is u marked and very crafty
ing contrast with that of 1896. The
republicans of Wichita and Sedgwick
county are reunited and working har-
moniOus'y for the success of the state,
congressional and county tickets. The
results of this happy condition were
very strikingly manifest in the two
great political meetings held in tina,
city last Saturday afternoon and night,
and addressed respectively by Post.
master-General Smith and Hon. Ches.
ter I. Long.
At each meeting an audience of at
least $500 people greeted the speaker.
They were attentive, appreciative, re-
sponsive audiences They came ex-
pecting to hear excellent speeches and
went away highly gratif;ed with their
experience.
General Smith was q happy surprise.
He is the one eastern orator who fas
has delighted Kansan audience and
sent them to their homes without a
word of criticism for either his manner
or utterancex He was rewarded with
the most generous applause from the
opening to the close of his speech.
Mr.. Longs meeting at night was the
most satisfactory one he has ever held
in Wichita during his four campaigns
His audience was tho largest, its greet
ing the most cordial and its applause
the most generous in all his experience
in Wichita.
The republicans of Wichita are great
ly elated over the marked success of
these two meetings and their results,
indicating as they do, an overwhelming
ma jority for the republican tickets in
Sedgw c,< county.

calf and forearm development is equally
great, while his biceps, without being
distended. show the remarkable n,easnr-
ment Of 2l4 inches. Mr. Cyr's record is
equally wonderful, aud is authenticated

Clipper Annual. Among his notable
feats is the lifting of 5524 pounds with
one finger; 9S7 pounds with one hand +;
1874 pounds with both hands; aud
clear lifting feat of 1900 pounds. Mr..

of the neck and forced matters"
II voted NO ON the resolution to

''If Dewey had sailed away from

been bitter for this country. But he

that we would not take their islands,
l don't think we should. We are under
obligations now, though, to hold
these islands for time and see that
they get q good government Of their

Congressman Jerry Simpson cd

political issues of the day at Peck's hall
yesterday afternoon. Simpson is not
much of an expansionist on the Ques-
ton of retaining Manila and the Philli-
pine Islands by the United States. 1t
Is more than likely that some of the
small islands in the PHILIPPINE group
are undesirable; but just now . great
many people of our country, irrespcc-
tive Of party, seriously believe that the

city Of Manila and its magnificent har
Dor, would be of unreasonable value to
the United States and her growing

and therefore are strongly in favor of
allowing, if possible, the stars and
stripes, which were planted over Manila
by reason of the Dewey victories, to
float there forever.

silence. The pOpullsts of Scott county,

a little ring of self-seeking politicians

THE WOMAN QUESTION.

Who is to blame FOR the more promi-
nent part which woman is daily play
ing in the worlds role of business and
professional life and in even mechanical
affairs and industrial interests? Wom-
an is not the ideal and dependent prea-
ture that she was twenty-five or fifty
years ago. She is crowding into all
the avenues Of life, and to just that ex-
tent deserving the home. There Is a
reason for it Is man himself respon-
sible. and is he to lose all that pertains
to his idealistic side OF life? Is he no
longer as the Lord Of creation to play
the part Of woman's supporter and pro-
teotor? Elizabeth Bisland. IN the cur
rent number OF the North American
Review, holds that man has had his
day as the head, and that he alone is
responsible for the vexing woman Ques-
ton; that in short, he is a degenerate.
Miss Bisland evidently longs for the old
days and old ways. with their senti-
ments Of feudal relationship OF husband
and wife-the dependency Of the one
and the responsibility OF the other. IN
support OF her position that man him
self is to blame for the present attitude
OF woman toward him. argues that
Woman by nature is intensely aristo-
