TROOPS REVIEWED.

folIoW1ng the benediction the arrange
ments for the review of the military es-
cort by Admiral Dewey were carried out
While the police were forcing the crowd
back to give clear passage way for the
troops across the plaza there were de-
mands from the crowd to "hold I'D the

on step-ladder near by, held the sword

The admiral and the president then
seated themselves and conversed ami
mately. The former was facing south.

years old, in the crowd near the stand.
kissing her hand to him. In an instant
his face was aglow, and he waved both
hands to the young one. There was
lew moments delay in the starting of the
escort and during the interval the adj
miral and the president were Joined in
the stand by Secretary Long, Secretary
Hay, Secretary Hitchcock, Attorney Cen
eral Griggs, Postmaster General Smith,
Secretary Root and ex-Secretary Alger
The Olympia men, who had been placed
at points of vantage whence they could
see their chief honored, first marched
across the plaza to take the place of
honor at the right of line, and were
greeted with continuous cheering When
they fell into place the review began
Gen. Miles and his staff riding by in
salute and then taking up position on
the plaza north of the stand.
Admiral Dewey, the president and the
others in the party remained standing
during the passing of the troops. The
admiral touched his chapeau to each or
ganization and removed it in saluting to
every flag. He clapped his hands when
the District national guard came into
view, and the guard was also given a
special cheer by the throngs.

A LEADING POLITICAL ISSUE.

During the gathering CT Democrats at
Dallas, Tex, on Monday, Gov. Stone, of
Missouri, gave expression to an idea
which will find an echo among Democrats
everywhere. 1t was embodied in the fol-
lowing sentences:
If real war is to be made upon tho
trusts, the Democrats must wage that
war The trusts do not fear the Re-
publican party In making choice be-
tween the Democratic and Republican
parties upon which side think you the
trusts will be found? To which side will
they contribute both money and ballots?
But, if the trusts fill the campaign cof-
fers of the Republican party, the people
should rally to the support of the opposi-
ton.
The very extended and general discus
sion had already of the trust evil has
made it plain that politics must be in
voked if American society is to be pro-
tected against the inroads of monopoly
Despite all the prophecies of Senator
Hanna and other leaders of the Repub-
lican party the trusts will be and are a
political issue; and their fate must de-
pend on the result of the political con-
tests of the immediate future
The rigid enforcement, as we'll as the
general enactment, of the necessary Iegis-
lation is needful if anything is to be
done. 1t is easy to pass laws aimed at
the trusts Republican politicians have
been doing it in their appeals to Bun
combe county all over the country. Not
one of those who have voted for such
legislation has believed for a moment
that the laws passed would be found
adequate or that, if they were they
would be enforced if their enforcement
were left to their authors or to those
in political sympathy with such authors
The two trust conventions held in
Chicago and ST. Louis respectively have
accomplished nothing practical, except
that the later gathering sustained the
G | oh e. s view, that the chief need of
the situation is the enactment and en-
forcement of uniform legislation which
will secure the destruction of any COM
mercial or Industrial organization which
enjoys substantial monopoly in the
production of any article of commerce
To effect this all the resources of popular
discussion and the elective franchise must
be invoked.
AS Gov Stone says, if real war is to
be waged on the trusts, it must be waged
by the Democratic party The Repub-
lican party of today stands for the
trusts, representing. as they do, huge ag-
gregations CT wealth. And enough has
transpired already to make it plain thai
the vast financial resources of those or
CARNATIONS will be at the disposal of the
politicians of that party in the effort to
enable the trusts to perpetuate them
selves.
Democrats must prepare for the war.
Opposition to trusts will be the great
issue in the forthcoming campaign. It
will not be secondary even to Imperialism
as expressed in the policy of territorial
expansion. The lines of the coming bat
tie are already marked out. Imperialism
threatens the liberties of the American
people from many points of attack but
from none more seriously than from the
commanding vantage point of immense
consolidated capital, prepared at once to

The report of Gen. Otis. under date
Of the I'd inst, unlike most of the in
formation received at any time since the
famous round robin, possesses no small
interest 1t recites the return of certain
American prisoners, and relates in Ian
guage which, if it were not used by Gen
Otis in person, could easily be re-
garded as having passed under the blue
pencil of thoughtful censor that an
cffer of peace has been made on behalf
of the Philippine government ''Yester-
day" says Gen. Otis. they three insur-
sent ofticers) endeavored to present a
proposition from the insurgent govern
ment, which was declined" The general
then adds: '.lnsurgent officers then said
that Agunaldo desired to end the war
and send a civil commission for confer
ence, and were informed that it would
not be received"
In uncensored and unofficial language
all this means that Aguinaldo, in com
mand of the natives now in arms, sent
an offer, presumably in favor of a peace
full adjustment of the prevailing unpleas-
antness, which was not received. The
terms of that offer may or may not be
known to Gen Otis. They probably are,
but whether they are, and, if they are,
whether they have been communicated
to this government will never apparent
ly be made known to the public. The
emissaries of Aguinaldo then declared
that their commander desired to end the
war, and would send civil commissioners
to the civil and military governor of the
islands, Gen. Otis with that end in view
The response to his proposal was that
such commissioners would not be re-
ceived
And why not received? There is no
answer vouchsafed to this question, save
that which is furnished by the wise head
line writer's of the imperialist press. They
tell us that to receive either Aguinaldo' S
proposition or his commissioners would
invorve a recognition of Aguinaldo's au-
thority and of the authority of the
philippine government" And, suppose
it did, what then? Must we go on,
through the seasons that are not rainy
to all eternity, squandering the nations
wealth and endangering and sacrificing
our peoples lives, for fear We may recog-
nize something or somebody that has
already succeeded quite literally in Sc
curing that form of recognition which
comes through the bore Of a Mauser
rife?
AguinaIdo desires to end the war. So
his representatives say. So probably did
the proposition which he sent by his rep
resentatives. There is one way of end
ing that war, and this dispatch of Gen.
Otis shows that it has been suggested
Why not adopt it, or, if not, Why not
consider it? Is it because Otis instruc-
tons do not look for the ending of the
war just at this time? IS the presiden-
tial election too far off? 1t certainly
looks that way Such cavalier treatment
of the men now in arms against the
United States in the Philippines certainly
bespeaks no desire to bring the existing
state Of thirgs to a close until such time
as entirely suits the pleasure and profit
of our imperiaIist mast ers-

 I am greatly obliged to you for pub fishing what you did relative to ths Milk Association. It was plain. brie and correct.
 l think the farmers would be interest ed in studying the basis of our orgapi zstion and decide whether or not its merits are worthy of their consideration, For long time we have been convinced that the farmers have lacked nothing SC much as a thorough organization. The three links in the chain of this organizs. tion we believe are solidly welded. I, h to this that we owe our present prt s. psctive success. This only induced capitalists to offer to buy our milk.

MRS MILES B. TOBEY.

Mrs Miles B. Tobey, whose illness was mentioned in last weeks paper, died Wednesday evening, March l5,and the funeral services were held on Satur' day afternoon.
 h the death of Mrs Tobey the town of North Canaan loses one of it's oldest and most respected residents.
 Elizabeth Pierson Rood. daughter oi Asahel and Sarah Arnold Rood, was born in Canaan, August IA. 1924. At the time of her birth the Rood family was one of the largest in the town. nu- merous members of it having settled in different parts of the township. In l844 she married Miles B. Tobey, and most of her married life was spent on farm in the northeast part of the town, known as the Tobey Hill Farm. This name at once brings up among her many friends pleasant memories of genuine warm hearted hospitality. Who that has ever visited the place can forget the cordial greeting, the unaffected kindness, and the unbounded hospitality accorded to her guests by the mistress of the housel Her unfailing cheerfulness that would often rise into merry-making and fun. her constant thougbtfulness for the comfort and happiness of her family and friends, her industry, patience and hopefulnsss make her memory pre- cious possession.
 Mrs Tobey will be sorely missed, not only by her immediate family whose loss seems irreparable, but by many others, some of whom, far away from Canaan are today recalling the many acts of kindness and helpfulness that seemed to come SO naturally from Mrs Tobey's heart.
