William Bryan concluded his eloquent
address in New York on Saturday night,
which was cheered to the echo, with the
following reference to the Administrations
Philippine policy =
Is this nation ready to go back and
with trembling voice pray to become
hired servant of royalty Let Us pray not
loud cries of No alliance n' No alliancep]
No nation, they say, will interfere with
what we do in the Philippines. No wonder.
Why should any of the nations of Europe
interfere? For 100 years this nation has
been standing menace to every throne in
Europe, and they are glad enough to see as
following in their tracks 1t was this Gov
eminent that inspired the FIlipinos with
the love of liberty. The opposition to
Imperialism has grown SO rapidly that the
President was constrained to deny any
purpose to enter upon such a course. But
the denial is of little value when the pur-
pose upon the part of the Administration
is so apparent The proclamation issued to
the Fiiipinos plainly indicates purpose to
govern them without their consent and to
tax them to suit our purposes rather than
their own. According to the plan thus far
outlined the constitutional guarantees
which protect the people of the United
States will not be extended to the Filipinos
Our people will govern themselves; the
FIlipinos will be goverend by the Execu-
tive through officers appointed by him. In
this country we shall have a republic, in
the Philippines despotism. A despotism
is not relieved of its name because of its
benevolence. A government wherein
authority rests upon force. and where the
people have no voice in making and
executing the laws under which they live,
is despotic in its form. When we plead
for independence for the Filipinos we plead
for our own people rather than for them.
We believe in the doctrine of self-govern-
ment and are not only unwilling to deny
it to alien races, but we fear that denial
of it in one part of the nation will lead to
the abandonment of it entirely. The mo-
meDt force is raised above reason the mo-
ment might is substituted for right in the
government OF any part of this couniry;
that moment decay attacks the fundamen-
tai principles of the republic. If the peo-
pie become sufficiently Indifferent to the
doctrine of self-government to permit its
abandonment in the Orient, they will not
long defend it here. II is significant fact
that those who 10 1886 were willing to
borrow financial system from England
are now foremost among the people who
would borrow colonial policy from Eng
land. How long before they would be
willing to borrow the laws entail and
primogeniture and the splendors of royal
court and titled nobility p"

ANOTHER SENSATIONAL ARREST
Prominent Lancaster Lawyer Charged
with BribiDg an Officer.

with BribiDg al Ofhcer-
Philadelphia April 20.-A sensa-
tional arrest was made in this city last
night in connection with the capture Of
the counterfeiting gang. Harvey x.
hewitt, who was assistant United
States district attorney in this city
during the administration of Presi-
dent Harrison. was taken into Gus
tody by secret service men on a war
rant sworn out by Chief Wilkie,
charging him with bribing Detective
McManus, of the Philadelphia Office.
He was given private hearing be-
fore United States Commissioner Ed
munds and held in $4,000 bail. which
was furnished by a wealthy friend. 1t
was shown at the hearing that ON
March 6 hewitt gave McManus $500
as bride, and on March % $500 more.
This money was turned over to Mr..
Wilkie as soon as 1t was received.
According to the story told by one
of the officers Kendig, of Lancaster,
suspected early this year that he and
his confederates were being watched
by secret service men in Lancaster.
He came to this city and engaged New
lit as a go-between to bride officers
Burns and MeManus, who were work
ing on the case Burns was not ap
preached, but hewitt saw McManus
and the latter agreed to accept the
bride. All of the meetings between
hewitt and McManus were witnessed
by members of Mr. Wilkes force. and
the evidence against him is said to be
most positive.
1t is stated here that enough coun-
terfeit stamps were captured by the
detectives in Lancaster to cover 440,-
100000 cigars. AS near as can be
learned about $4,000 worth of bogus
stamps have been used on cigars thus
| far sent out from Lancaster.

MOUNTAINEERING GANG
Important Secret Service Arrests in
Philadelphia and Lancaster.
THEIR PARAPHEREALIA SEIZED.

It Includes n Plant For Manufarttsf-
ing Counterfeit Paper-Two of the
Suspects Leading Lancaster Manu-
facturers.
Philadelphia, April 20.-Probably the
most important capture in the history
Of the secret service was made on
Tuesday in this city by Chief John d.
rested Arthur Taylor and Baldwin S.
Bredell, the makers of the famous
counterfeit Monroe head" 500 silver
certificate. These arrests were follow
ed yesterday by the capture in Lam
caster, Pa, of William M. Jacobs and
William L. Kendig, two prominent
cigar manufacturers, Harry Brailler
and Simon Kleinordingler, Jacobs
bookkeepers, and James Burns, Ken
digs foreman There were also
captured the original plate from
which the silver certificates were
printed, new 500 counterfeit plate
and a new $50 plate, and also three
sets of plates for the printing of coun-
terfeit revenue stamps, rolls, other
paraphernalia and about five tons OF
paper anu q ici 81 " NOoAANCA
felt stamps The Monroe head" plate
and also the stamp plates and the Other
materials were found in Lancaster
where the printing was done. The
plates for the new 500 note and the
$50 note were found in this city
The officials have taken possession
of the factories of the cigarmakers
and have attached their bank account
Taylor and BredeIl, it is said, were
captured while actually at work on
the new plates They are young men
who were employed in Philadelphia
by different firms but some time age
started in business for themselves
They are said to be expert engravers
and never before have been under sus-
picion. The men will undoubtedly be
brought to trial at the earliest possible
moment. They are said to have con
fessed that less than $4,000 of the ia
nous 800 notes were put in circu alton
The silver certificate, which was first
discovered year ago last fall, was
probably the most dangerous counter
felt ever put in circulation, and ever
the experts of the government for 9
long time We're undecided as Il
whether the note was genuine OF
counterfeit The counterfeit resulted
in the retirement of the whole issue.
A dispatch from Lancaster announces
that those arrested in that city were
taken before United States Commits
sioner B. F. Montgomery. and waived
a hearing.
United States District Attorney Beck
of Philadelphia, was present to con
duct the governments case. He saiC
the parties named in the warrants
were charged with counterfeiting al
internal revenue stamp for the pay
ment of the tax upon so cigars and &
United States silver certificate of the
denomination of $100 They were also
charged with equipping factory a
Lancaster for the manufacture of paper
Mr. Beck said it was apparent thai
Brailler and I<leinordingIer were mere
" tools, and he asked that they be re
leased
The commissioner fixed Jacobs bal
at Sac, 600 and that of Kendig ant
Burns at $25, 600 each. Kendig was re
leased on bail last night, but Jacobs
and Burns were sent to jail and thi:
morning were brought to Philadelphia

AS foretol6 exclusively in the DEMOCRAT
of last Thursday, Hon. D. o. Watkins
went to Washington last Saturday, and
came home on late train, with the Offer
of the U. S. Attorneyship for the State Of
New Jersey. The acceptance of this Office
will take Mr.. Watkins out of county
and State politics for the present, at
least, and turn his friends from compact
effective political force, into a mere mob,
without leader.
Whether the Loudenslager ring will find
the job of corralling Mr. Watkins follow
ers as easy as that of capturing their leader
is a question for the future, but we predict
that the army Of independents who refused
to cast their ballots for Loudenslager last
November, will give the death blow to bis
leadership at the fret opportunity. The
character of party is determined by the
character of the men it crowns, and we are
not prepared to believe that the RepubIi-
cans of this county are going to crown
Loudenslager leader, simply because of bis
latest come
