PUBLIC OPINION.


most decided source of weakness
rather than Of strength to the United
States when we happened to be al
war with other nations. For we
shall have to fortify and defend
them; and the defense of them at
such a distance from our shores will
be of immense difficulty and ex-
Pense-of greater expense in fact
than they can ever be worth to us as
naval depot. A coaling station,
as a matter Of fact, we have there
already, at any time it may suit us
to fortify and use it. Annexation
will bring us troubles and compli-
cations of which it is impossible to
take account in advance. 1t is an
unfortunate departure from the pol
icy which has guided this country
SO long and SO we'll and the adop-
ton in it's stead the European col
onial system, which has kept the
powers constantly embroiled with
each other and burdened them with
immense armies and navies, neces-
sary to MAINTAIN their far distant
colonies.
Mansfield Journal: The Senate
bill providing for a State Printing
Board, which was to have the pow
er to appoint the official journals of
the parishes, died ahorning, but it
was left for Republican member
to take the iniative in its death.
The mea ure was SO IN AUST in its
provisions that we are surprised
that it received any sort Of recog-
milton among the Democrats in the
legislature. 1t was aimed as much
at the independent Democratic
press Of the state as at the Repub-
lican and Populist papers. The
bill doubtless would have passed if
its supporters had not feared 1T
would prove boomerang.
New Orleans Picayune: One of
the prinCi pal results Of the present
war will undoubtedly be perma
nent increase in our naval esta blish-
ment. In order to make this in
crease effective, it will be necessary
to greatly augment the strength Of
the enlisted force. Our ships. as
sequently, their effectiveness is
measurably impaired. Oar navy is
moreover, very seriously under
Differed, especially the battle ships
of officers of all grades should at
once be increased. OF course,
there is the old prejudice against
officers not graduates Of the Naval
Academy. This is to be regretted,
as it tends to damage the navy in
popular estimation and make it I'M
population with the merchant
marine, which is the very class that
re-enforcements must be drawn
from in time of war. 1t would be
useless to suggest any plan for Sc
curing the extra officers needed; but
it is evident that the naval authori-
ties will have to study the question
in the near future, and it is hoped
that the difficulty will be approach
ed in a broardminded and I'M
prejudiced spirit.
The Convent Gazette: The Leg
islators at Baton Rouge seem to
have realized the inadvisibility Of
of an extrasession and have worke d
in earnest this week, their session
lasting until an advanced hour Of
the night. 1t seems to be con-
coded that the legislature will pos
itively adjourn on Thursday, what
ever may then be the condition Of
the measures that have been intro
duced; the necessary and most i'm
portant legislation is now hurried
through and will be enacted before
next Thursday, which is the last

of the ad ministtation TO seize Porto
Rico and hold that island perman-
emily as an American possession.
1t IS hardly probable that Spain
will agreed to this without a hard
fight in the conference which must
precede the signing Of a definite

must certainly have something to
show for the victory which has been
won, and as free and independent
government has been pledged to
Cuba, there will be strong pres

prospect Of serious clash with the
Philippine insurgents. Should this
country force Spain to relinquish
the Philippines, we would have to
assume charge of the islands,, be-
cause, to leave the natives to them
selves, would be tantamount to an
invitation to the European powers
to seize and partition off the ISLANDS
among themselves. Whatever may
be the ultimate purpos: Of the adj
ministration at Washington, it is
clear that, for the present at least,
the occupation and paciication Of
the Philippines has been decided on.
Having once assumed control, the
civilized world will hold us 1espon-
sible for the conduct Of the insur-
gents.

that tends to the detriment Of the
successful cultivation of sugar is
quickly known and discussed

for the annexation of Hawaii has
passed both Houses of Congress
and now awaits the Presidents sig
nature before becoming law. The
President will sign it and by the
time this issue is published, it will
be a law Of the land. The sugar
planting element Of this parish
is now doing some hard thinking
over the causes and effects Of the
annexation OF Hawaii. While con-
templating this matter, we wish to
call to their attention the fact that
this measure was distinctly Re-
publican one and that the Demo-
cratic party was unalterably OPP
posed to its passing. The Repub-
licans cannot shift the rcspons bility
from their shoulders by asserting
that prominent Democrats voted in
favor Of the bill and that promi-
nent Republicans opposed it.
Daily States: 1t is good news to
all true Democrats that the bill to
regulate the primaries has been re-
vived and is likely to become a law.
We do not speak in special COM
mendation Of the bill as originally
drafted. That may or may not be
defective and Objectionable That
is matter that can be safely left to
the Democratic m jority in the Leg
islature. We speak only Of the du-
ty of Dem ocrats to carry out. the
mandatory article Of the new con-
stitution, Article 2t5, and of the

vital importance to the party Of es-

The republican party is the party Of progress and Of business ability. All the great achievements Of this coun- try, in war or peacs, in the last thirty five years, have been consum- mated under republican rule. The republican party is tbe party best fitted to settle the money question. It will settle it satisfactorily in good time. It has been handicapped in the last two years by lack of power in the congress. That power, according to all signs, will be accorded it after the election in November. The republican party is not the enemy ef silver It will give silver due recognition in the re-estab- lishment of the money system With q good working majority in both houses the republicans may be relied upon to place the national finances on a scien- life basis.

BICYCLE STUDDED WITH GEMS.

At one of the bicycle shows in Chi cago a wheel known as the S10,000 beauty" was on exhibition. The extra ordinary cost was represented in dia- monds, rubieS and other precious stones, which were set in various parts Of the machine. A south African mil liOnaire will soon come into posses sion of a wheel which far outshines the Chicago article in eXtravagant cost. He visited the industrial exposition at Vienna and took 8 fancy to. a bicycle which was offered for sale at So00. It was inlaid with gold and beautifully carved. He at once purchased the ma chine for his wife, and it was sent to @ jeweler, who is now engaged in in serting into the frame precious stones worth nearly s50O,000. When ccmplet- ed it will be sent to south Africa.

The return Cf the CnlcaSO ana AL
 ianta to service marks the accomplish
 ment of very interesting step in navy
 making. These-with the Boston
 were the first cruisers in the new navy.
 They had been so surpassed by tha
 newer cruisers that in ten years from their completion they were obsolete.
 Now they have been so remodelled
 that they are new again; their arnla-
 mert increased, military mastS added,
 and new engines put in which give them eighteen instead Of fifteen knots
 speed. This is the first example in
 modern navies of bringing an old ship perfectly up to date. If the same thing can be dCne with battleships it will improve greatly the efficiency of the
 navy. England has some twenty bala- tleships whose low speed, thin armor and nuzZle loading guns make them almost useless in combat against the ships which every great nation is now building These ships are carried on | the military list as effective. but are admittedly relied uron for coast de- fense only. It will be interesting if Yan- kee ,invcTtiveness shali teach European nations to rebuild obsolete battieships
 and make their paper squadrons effec- i tive.

It. was well said at the republican ratification meeting last night. that the same spirit that animated the boys Of the 1.Rcugh Riders" in enlisting to fight their country's battles fills the hearts of the voters of Arizona, and it will not be surprising if the vote for Col. Brodie is far beyond present calculations. The people love a brave soldier, and when they get a chance +o-~ete-foE him they embrace it eager ly. Col. Brodie will be elected by a tremendous majority.
