ON TO PARIS.

The United States peace commits
sioners received their final sealed in
structions Thursday, and will sailed
from New York Sept. 18th. It is ex-
pected that the joint commission will
begin work at Paris before the month
closes.
Just what the instructions given
are is "a state secret, but the report
from Washington is that they are en-
tirely satisfactory to the members of
the commission who are in sympathy
with popular demand to hold the
Philippines, and that the conclusion
of the whole matter will be Spain's
elimination from the list of colonial
nations.
The first impulse of the administra-
tion was, apparently, to regard Ma
Mia as the Hong Kong of the United
States, but upon reflection it was
seen to be impracticable to dissociate
Manila, bay or city, from the island
of Luzon. 1t is hardly less imprac-
ticable to d1sassociate that island from
the rest of the Philippine group. 1t
is supposed that the American COM
missioners are instructed to announce
at once that at least the entire island
of EuZon must remain in the hands
OF the United States. Perhaps Spain
itself will take the position that the
entire group must be treated as a
unit. If not at first, it might be led
finally TO do so when other details
come to be considered. Diplomacy
is not lost art even in America,
Short as was the time between the
signing of the peace protocol and the
sealing of the instructions to the
peace commission, it was long enough
for the whole civilized world to have
its attention localized on the colonial
readjustment made necessary by the
war between the United States and
Spain. With one voice the parties
not in interest have declared in favor
of this republics taking upon itself
substantially all the colonial obliga-
tions of Spain. Never since there
was newspaper press has there been
such uuanimity in the editoria!
opinion of the world. Wherever pub
lished, and in whatever language,
the journals of civilized countries
have arrived at the same general con-
clusion. The governments of the
world seem to share in this remark
able consensus of public opinion.
Nor has the Spanish government or
press shown any disposition to find
fault with it. This absence of pro
test from Spain warrants the hope
that either Spain will refuse to accept
the mere scraps and tailings of its
colonies, or that, when the American
demand is fully made, it will be
promptly acquiesced in. = Inter
