A PROTEST..

From Kipling down all the martial
scribes are opposed to the Russian
car
And the white-winged conference he has
~, called to sit on the corpse of War.
There will be no man on the "swayinR
bridge" cool in the cannon smoke,
Jottlng down just how q fellow feels
when he thinks he is going to croak
There will be no account of the "reeling
ranks which break to a swift re-
Before the charge of our gallant bows"
70 =, Our lives will be incomplete
Ii the wise guys decide to adopt the plan
la1d out by the Russian car
And sit In solemn-faced grandeur on the
corpse of our old friend War.
There will be no tales of the "battle
VINO suffer the pangs of a fever dread
a fever that's known as Fear.
Our Dickey Davis will mourn and weep
with gloomy young Crimson Crane:
ana no one will ever be thrilled again by
M, the bullets that fell like rain"
Inc a S1dris sex 1gl SHELL ELI will alas be dumb
The Mausers whine" and the Gatling's
rho song will quicken the pulse no more
days will perish with Glory's star.
And Hope and Hate and Love and Fate
Will pine for their old friend War
The census Of villains that handy War
has given the arms Of Death
Is greater than all the tribes which lived
SAASO luS WHO CHIC drew breath.
The martial bards will sadly turn from
the corpse-strewn field to sing
In various ways their faltering praise of
the. good. old stand-by-Spring.
No beef ''embalmed;" no fresh Canned
-, worms; no Alger to criticise:
No Funston. Dewey or Miles to praise;
no Hobson to Hobsonize.
so, wise guys all who are at The Hague
to piacate the Russian car,
Do what you can for his royal nibs, but
leave us our old friend War.

This is a delightful little study of ma

That it had not been done by an Ameri-
can rather than by an Englishman. 1t is
fully illustrated with bird, insect, rabbit
deer, and all forms of outdoor life. There
are trees brooks, rivers, sea and cliffs.
Nests. hiding places, the free wing, and
the fleet foot, have each in turn been
caught and are reproduced. While not at
all scientific in form, it is so accurate in
description, and so full in informa ton
as to be very instructive in substance,
while the book is a pleasing recreation

For sale by the st. Paul Book and

The Rev. Canon is, no doubt, hearty
speaker, and his popular lecture on the
gIories of "Auld Scotia" was, no doubt,
the cause of much enthusiasm among
sympathizing audiences. The title IS Sc
ductive, but the method of treatment Is
hardly In accord with the canons Of mod
ern historical criticism, to which the elo-
uuent Canon should apply himself. 1t Is
a splendid story-this leadership of the
Scotchman in the worlds work, but Mac
kensle's book will be chiefly grateful to
those who are already admirers of the
"hills and mists," or to those who wish
to prepare a speech on short notice for

McRlnleN,s HYpoerisy.

The proclamation OF the Presl
dent to the Filippinos is a precious
document OF hypocrisy, Mr., Nc
Kinley promises all kinds OF sweet
things, including some self gov
ernment, for which latter the Flip
pinos have been fighting the Span
iards for over 200 years. Now
Mr.. Mckinley inwardly knows
that expansion and annexation is
for the benefit Of the United States
solely; that no selfgovernment,
for which the people OF Cuba and
the Philippines have been strug-
cling so long, is to be extended to
them, because Congress is too
weak to curb the Administration.
Dewey used the Filippinos to
conquer Manila. Now Mckinley
tells the Filippinos that the "re-
duction Of that city and the sur
render OF the Spanish forces prac-
ticallY effected the conquest OF the
Philippine Islands and the suspen.
sion OF Spanish sovereignty there" J"
AS outside Of Manila the United
States are incapable OF h holding any
more OF the 1900 islands, that
claim of McKinley's must natur-
ally surprise the Islanders.
But those Filippinos have smart
leaders. Aguinaldo, kept out of
his share ofthe conquest OF Manila
by Dewey, and seeing how the
Cubans are being treated by the
Americans, now their best generals
and prominent men are ignomin.
iously kept in the background and
prevented from even the slightest
participation in establishing CUBAN
seli-government, has lett the
vicinity Of the American spiders,
and will not enter Mr.. McKinley's
nets. He may also be offended
because he and his soldiers were
refused entrance to Manila, because
they were charged with being
plunderers (though they have since
shown that this was a baseIess
slander) on taking possession of
Iloilo, where they kept the best OF
order. A similar reason was given
last Sunday at the celebration at
Havana, " hen the Cubans, though
by rightthe most interested parties,
were prevented from joining in the
ceremonies attending the evacua-
tion Of Cuba by the Spaniards.
This hypocritical policy will do
no good. Why not tell the Flip
pinos and Cubans that the AmerI-
cans come as conquerors and will
keep what they get, and have got,
Tor themselves, and that they care
not for the natives? Is this not so,
Mr.. Mckinley You cannot, and
will ot,deny it, if you are an hon
est man, Your expansion policy
is a very mean piece OF business.
But let those Cubans and Flip
pinOs fight, and it will necessitate
and give US big standing army,
so much needed by the plutocrats
and syndicates OF the United
States. This alone explains Mr.,
McKinleY's diabolical policy!

CONGRESS, ATTENTION

Military DespOtism and War
Against Foreign Countries,
The Paris treaty must first be
ratified and the twenty million
dollars paid over to Spain before
Mr.. Mckinley receives the power,
provided Congress agrees to It, to
make a war Of conquest upon the
people ofthe Philippine Islands.
Now the President has ordered
his soldiers to attack the Filippinos
in their own cities and compel them
to surrender the latter and recog.
nize the United States as their con-
querors and masters. What right
had Mr.. Mckinley to issue such
orders2 Who gave him authority
to attack and conquer people who
had done us noharm1 Suppose Con-
gress refuses to ratiiy the treaty,
and Mr.. Mckinley should by his
illegal orders have caused the loss
Of thousands OF lives on both sIdesS
Will that not be sufficient reason
for impeachment?
Has our President more power
than any European potentate9
Can he make war upon a people
whenever it suits him9
Congressman and Senators, il
there is any patriotism aud COM
mon sense left IN you, you ought
to exercise your authority over the
President and stop him in his un-
lawful and disastrous careers
How can Mr. Mckinley issue a
proclamation Of surrender 20 the
Filippinos, as he has done, when
not even the treaty has been rati-
fed?
What right has he in an unlawful
war Of conquest to issue orders,
the execution OF which may cost
hundreds and thousands Of Amer
ican livesS
Congress will commit crime
If it does not stop Mr.. Mckinley
Immediately in his despotic and
unlawful careerl

ImperIaIlsm in opsration.

In a despatch to Gen. Otis on
Jan. 1. Secretary Alger informed
the American commander at
Manila that" President instructs
giving the insurgents the assurance
and informing them OF the purpose
OF the Government, assuring them
that while it will assert its sover.
eigneV, its purpose is to give them
a good government and security
in their personal rights"
Another member of the Cabine!
is reported by Washington cor
respondent as saying OF the Flip
pinos;-"They will be allowed all
reasonable concessions, but they
lVill not be given their independ-
euce, and they must recognize the
sovereignty Of the United States
Mr.. Mckinley has surely pro
gressed at a rapid rate since he
said in his message to Congress
that "forcible annexation would be
criminal aggression"
In the protocol dictated by our
Government to Spain the" "ditsposi-
tion, government and control Of
the Philippines" was left to the de-
cision Of the Peace Commission.
But when this question was
reached our Commissioners, under
the guiding hand" Of the Presi-
dent--as Judge Day confessed
in his speech at Canton--presented
what was practically an ultima
tun for the cession OF the entire
archipelago.
This the Spanish were forced to
concede, and then It was said that
she entire subject of the "dtsposi-
ton, government and control OF
the Philippines would be left 10
Congress. The President was
represented by his friends and
supporters as resolved to turn the
whole matter over to the rePresen-
tatives OF the people.
Yet now the Secretary OF War
conveys to Gen. Otis the Presi-
dents instruction" that our Gov
ernment will "assert its sover.
eighty ty"-which it bought OF Spain
and that its purpose is the pa
ternal one OF giving good gov
ernment" to the people-at the
cannon's mouth il necessary. And
another member of the Cabinet
states as a hnalty that the Fillpi
nos will not be given their inde-
pendence," but "must rec ognize
the sovereignty OF the United
States"
This is imperialism indeedl 1t
has the true ring Of despotic abso-
lutism. The policy OF the Presi-
dent, as gradually revealed, is to
set up military satrapy in the
Philippines and ask Congress to
provide for its support.
Will Congress be satisfied with
this roller Will its members
quietly consent to this usurpation
Of their prerogatives1 How do
they like imperialism in actual
operation2

Worse than Niormons.

Whilst we see our Puritans make
a good deal of noise about the

annex the Philippines, we also add
to our population about a million
Of Mahommedans, on the Island oi
Mindanao and especially the Sulu

all believe in and practice poly
gamy.

Roberts has been ousted on ac-
count of his three wives, will they

Gen. Wheeler

is to be pitied. The laurels he has
gained in the nsw war completely
obscure those won in the civil war.
There is a law that no Congress
man-in fact, no one-Can hold
two Federal offices. No Congress
man can belong to Mckinley and
the Democratic party that elected
him at the same time.
His abuse of Mr.. Bailey and
other Congressman who still stick
to the law and want him to resign
one OF the two ofices-for both he
cannot hll-will do him no good
and will only aggrieve his former
friends.
He must resign his seat in Con-
gress il he wants to be McKinleY's
and Alger's general. He will be
under their command and orders
as long as he wears their uniform.
1t is against the best interests OF
the Republic when military officers
in active service are allowed to oc-
cupy seats in the Legislative halls

That much interest is centered in the

AT THE THEATRES.

Miss Clara Morris, who. with her own
company, will come to the Academy of
Music next week and play that old
favorite play, miss Mutton" over
which our fathers have wept and which
is still as potent a factor in moving the
most stony hearted to tears. This play
has not been seen in this city lately, yet
it is so vel. known that to more than
outline the plot would be useless. The
ground work Of the play is almost
identical with that Of EAST Lynne, I"
yet this does not by any means detract
from the interest which it arouses. The
guilty wife deserts her husband, who
supposes her to have been killed in a
railroad accident, and marrIes again.
Years after the wife returns to her native
city and sc cures a position in the family
Of her husband as the governess to her
own children. Later she is discovered
and fees from the house, only TO die at
the home OF the friends with whom she
has found refuge, The part is unique s.
tionably the strongest in which Miss
Morris has ever been seen, which Is a
good reason for her phenomenal success
in the character.
