TOPEKA, Sept. l4.--President Allen

is angry at Governor Stanley because
that official refused to appoint him one

Slavery Question In the Sulus.

by the signing of the treaty with the
sultan OF the Sulus the United States
again holds sovereignty over slave ter
ritory AS long as congress does not
assume control of the islands this Is
presumably not in violation of the thir-
teenth amendment to the constitution.
1t IL, however, In violation of Ameri-
can idens, and the nation would not be
satisfied to regard slavery as IA perma-
nent fixture even In Mohammedan
dependency of this country. Action
looking toward the abolition Of slavery
in the Sulus was happily begun stimuli
taneously with the extension of Ameri-
can sovereignty over the islands. Gen
eral Bates, who negotiated the treaty,
encountered no trouble in getting the
sultan to agree to an article giving all
slaves the right to buy their own free
dom, his only stipulation being that
the price should be the market value.
This Is fair beginning, but it should
be followed with all reasonable
promptness by measures which will
wipe out the entire system.
At no distant date there should be
enforced stipulation that no new
slaves shall be made through debt or
otherwise and arrangements made by
which the local government should
purchase within short term Of years
the freedom Of such slaves as then re-
manned In bondage, or some other plan
should be devised by which those un-
able to purchase their liberty would be
able to acquire It The fugitive slave
law that exists, in all Of those oriental
countries should be speedily nullified,
and cruelty to slaves should at once be
prohibited.
This was the plan adopted by the
British government In dealing with the
same problem in the federated Malay
states. and 1t worked very successfully,
resulting in the complete abolition Of
the system In comparatively short
time. With the exercise of proper
judgment and discretion the same end
may doubtless be speedily achieved in
the Sulu islands.
