Knocking at the Door.

The youngest of the territories stands
hand in hand at the national capital
with the oldest, knocking for admission
to full membership in the family of
states of the greatest country now and
forever upon the face of the globe. Okla
homa, by her rapid growth and Develop
ment, is entitled to be received without
the undeserved delay that has fallen to
the lot of New Mexico. The govern
ment is extending it's protection to lands
n peoples far away, and it is high
that territory acquired over half
a century ago should no longer be point
ed out as an example of the American
hardness in according
justice to a people descended from those
occupied a region acquired by war
and purchase. Certainly it would be a
poor argument to admit thai assimila-
tom is a failure at home, and yet pos
sible in the case of alien people across
the ocean. Assimilation has been a sue
cess in so far as it has been permitted
by the government, in regions acquired
from Mexico. Statehood only is lack
ing to make a success and to proclaim
it to the world.

Printers as Potato Producers.

New York has a typographical union
that undertook to support its idle MEM
bers by establishing a potato farm.
When it IA first suggested that land
should be obtained upon which tempo
rarily unemployed compositors might
try their hands at agriculture, many
people pooh-poohed the idea and proph-
esied failure for the experiment. Ac-
cording to the land committees report
for 1899, however, the scheme has
proved to be not only practical, but
very successful in operation. and the
results so far have justified the outlay
which was necessary to carry it into eff
feet. Quite a number of Comps found
healthful occupation on the farm, and,
to their credit be it said, the profit on
the crop they raised is a handsome one.
The report states that inmates of the
nome were better fed, better housed, in
better health and in better moral and
physical condition than most of them
have been for years, and consequently
when they get back to the case or the
machine they will be better able to do
their work than ever before.
1t is a to say this typographical
union has no walking delegate to per-
suade men to quit work and live off
those who are employed.

because the military government has
not been rendered unnecessary vet, but
he expressed the opinion that congress
will sOon be under the necessity of
lesislating for that country. However,
in no faltering words did the president
point out the utter folly of thinking of
creating Il protectorate or granting in
dependence to the islands. while such
action would be but to turn the people
over to the savage cruelty and dishon-
esty Of the insurgents, and to violate
principles of good faith in DESERVING d
people and interests this country is I'M
der obligations to protect and hold.
There was no effort at effect in, this
message, nor "a bandying of needless
compliments in an effort to seek popu-
larity in the army and navy But the
president very tittingly gave credit to
the soldiers and sailors whose services
have brought added glory to the coun-
try and created new interests destined
eVer in the years to come. There is not
in he message any Self-glOrificatiOn,
o yet evasion Of anything for the good
of the country upon which an express
sion was desirable. For instance, the
president very emphatically advocated
financial Legislation to permanently fix
d gold standard. Concerning trusts,
without attempting to point gu the way
for congress-, he urged that due consid-
GRAFTON and effective legislation be en-
acted to restrain the evils of injurious
combinations that restrict trade. The
message was impersonal, a fair state
ment of the conditions of the country
and the needs of the enactment by con-
gress Of additional measures, without
an effort to dictate or direct the branch
of the government which has the ram
ing of the laws that the president must
execute.

The Presidents MESSAGE.

The presidents message is conserva.
tive, as was to be expected from an ex-
ecutive of such ripe wisdom and wide
experience. But it is firm in pointing
out legislation needed. 1t takes hon
orable ground with regard to keeping
faith with Cuba, fulfilling all obliga-
tions and promises, doing a full high.
minded duty in putting the island upon
a better basis in every respect, and then
giving the people entire liberty to es-
tablish an independent government or
to seek connection with the United
States. There is no evidence Of covet-
toward Cuba upon the part Of
the administration. Only justice Is sug-
gested toward Porto Rico in the matter
of commerce with this country. in adj
vising that as the island cannot longer
secure free admission of her products to
Spain. the privilege should be permit
ted by the United States, which as
sumed the responsibilities of Spain in
acquiring the island.
The president did not think the time
mad arrived for providing q form of
government for the Philippine country,

FREE SILVER.

(Victor, Colo, Record.)
In this matter of expansion We see as
important if not a more important issue
than the free coinage issue. We See in
the developments and conditions that
have followed the wal with Spain much
to cause US TO believe that the policy of
territorial and commercial expansion
of Colorado and the nation than the
single issue of free coinage ever meant.
If we are ever to have free coinage it
must come by way Of International
agreement. There is no use in longe"
deceiving ourselves on this proposition.
The people of the states east of the
Missouri river will never consent to the
free coinage of silver by the United
States alone, and we of the west may
as we'll concede that alone VIE can do
nothing.
But in expansion we see a brighter
future for the west than it has ever en-
joyed.
This means a changing of front doors,
as SGllduOT lelltI says. Inc AlldllllC
will no longer be the financial head
quarters of the United States. but the
Pacific will, within a quarter of a CEN
fury, become the richest gateway to
this country. Every state west of the
Missouri river will TEEN with life, for
all their latent resources will be called
into use. Iron, copper, coal, gold, silver,
cereals, fruit and produce will be in
greater demand, and the states that
produce these things must become and
remain prosperous.
Manufacturing, ship building. iron
and steel works, railroad shops. loco
motive factories, car factories, and hun
dreds of other industries will be added
to the industrial life of the west, and the
demand from the Philippines. other
large islands, China and Japan, will Gre
ate a permanent mt profitable market
for all this country can produce.
Free coinage, if we can get it, but ex-
pansion in any event. This is our po-
sition.

plain thai nobody will make any mis-
take on this score. A triumph for the
Democracy in 1900 would, on the day
after the election, cause a run on the
treasury by holders Of greenbacks seek
ing gold, which would soon empty that
depository of it's hoard of the yellow
metal, and precipitate the country on
what would virtually be the silver basis
long before the base-money president
and congress could come into power.
Honest money men cannot be sure OF
the situation until one more crushing
defeat is dealt to the Democratic party.
Consequently all men who prefer the
100 cent dollar to a dollar of As cents will
vote the Republican ticket in 1900.

Even at this late day, We're President
Mckinley, by any improbable chance,
to reverse his policy in regard to the
Philippines and to recommend the with
drawal of the American army from the
islands, the Democratic party would
arise in a body and d%enounce the ad-
ministration for it's treachery and it's
cowardice. The fact that that is what
it now pretends to desire would make
no difference, should the president de-
eide to pursue that curse. The whole
cry against expansion is animated by
the foolish notion that the Democrats
must oppose whatever the Republicans
favor, which suggests hal a political
organization has reached a pretty low
ebb when it has nothing better to offer
than obstinate Misrepresentation the
sake of disagreement-with a party
that is strong enough with the people
to control the government.

The attitude Of most of the gold DEM
ocrats in 1900 can be predicted with con-

put up in 1900 by the honest money De-
mocracy. The insignificant vote which
they polled in 1896 for Palmer will save
them from the repetition of a separate
nomination. Most of them will vote the
Republican ticket on the assumption,
which will undoubtedly be correct, that
a victory for Bryan would mean the es-
