7ppICS Ny The DAY,

II Mr.. Samuel Parker had au-
nounced himself as candidate for
the eventual governorship OF the
embryo territory OF Hawaii, he
would OF course have been entitled
to all the abuses and criticisms
which the different "orgaus" may
consider it proper to heap upon his
head. But as Mr.. Parker is not q
candidate for political honor and
has expressed no ambition OF enter
ing in the race for the governorship,
we think the slurs, sarcasm and
satire devoted to the prominent Ha-
waiian by Mr.. Dole's organ, uncalled
for and in extremely bad form.

Mr.. Geo. W. Smith is reported in
Portland paper as having stated
his views on Hawaiian matters aud
more especially on the labor ques-
ton in a manner which we certainly
can give no credence to. The paper
claims that Mr.. Smith stated that
the penal labor law virtually is a
dead letter and that the release OF a
few Galicians from jail had brought
about that happy condition. AS a
matter OF fact the penal clause in
our labor laws ia carried out TO the
letter and observing" is still the
most numerous charge on the calen
dars OF the District Judges.

AN INSULTTO WOMANHOOD.

The New York Journal prints IA
petition to Congress asking that
body to unseat Brigham FL. Robei Is,
the polygamlst elected from Utah,
which 1t appeals to the women of
America to distribute for signatures.
In commenting upon the subject
the Journal says in part:
"Roberts, of Utah, cannot be
seated iB the House of Representa-
tives without striking blow at the
American home and disgracing the
Republic in the eyes of the Chrit-
ian world. To admit this man as a
member of the National Legislature
would be to turn backward the
hands of the clock which marks the
progress of civilization"
"He stands for the degradation
of women, fer a relation of the
sexes which all save the savage and
semibarbarous races have out
grown. He represents moral and
religious condition of thought and
conduct that must not be tolerated
if there is to be respect among MS
for Christian motherhood. Also
he stands for an impudent and crimi-
nal breach OF faith upon the part of
the majority of the people of Utah,
which must be condemned and
punished by bis expulsion from the
House of Representatives. Utah
was admitted to the Union upon
agreement that the Mormons would
abandon polygamy. Roberts is a
notorious and confessed polyga-
mist. No matter what his majority
may have been at the polls, no mat
ter how fair the count of the votes
which elected him, his candidacy
was an advertisement of Mormon
duplicity and an announcement to
the people of the United States that
the Church of Brigham Young held
in higher reverence the relations of
Joseph Smith than it did the wit
ten and freely adopted consultation
of Utah."
each house of Congress Is the
sole Judge of the qualifications of
its members. The journal is con-
fident that the House will cham
pion the womanhood of the Re-
public and send Roberts back to
Utah with his seraglio, the last of
the polygamists that Utah will dare
to elect to Congress. But to make
sure, let every American woman
sign the petition on the first page

(The Times-Democrat.)

Washington, Jan. 5.--The war
department, in a report transmitted
TO congress today, recommended
the construction of u channel
through Ship Island Pass, to have
a depth of 26 feet at mean low wa
ter. 1t advises further that the
dredging required to secure such a
channel can be made at cost esti-
mated to be $4,000.
Chief of Engineers Wilson makes
the recommendation, which is a
concurrence in that of Major w. T,
Russell, the United States engineer,
who made the surveys. These sur
veys we're conducted with the view
to ascertaining the cost and advisa.
bility of constructing d channel
from Ship Island harbor, Miss, to
the railroad pier at GulfpOrt, and
from Ship Island to Biloxi, and
also for anchorage basins at both
places; alo for channel 26 feet deep
at mean low water through Ship
Island Pass.
10 his report, which accompanies
General Wilson's recommendation,
Major Russell states that at Biloxi
the anchorage basins may be placed
either 10 front of the town or in
the back bay, but expresses pref
erence for the latter. He says that
the waterway should be 800 feet
wide at the bottom, and estimates
the cost of dredging channels OF
this width, with II, 10 and % feet,
respectively, to be as follows:
From Ship Island harbor to Gulf
port, II feet deep, $371,3S9; 70 feet
deep, $573,967.04; % feet deep,
81, 0S9. 627 .63. From Ship Island
harbor to the anchorage basin IN
the front bay at Biloxi, II feet

loxi, II feet deep, 1917 ,730; 10 feet

mates the cost of maintaining the
channels as follows: Channel to

BRYAN A SURE WINNER.

If the Democratic party cannot
win with Bryan as it's nominee in
1900 1t cannot Win at all, for he
stands nearer to the people than
any Democratic leader living, be-
sides, he represents more nearly
than any other man the true princi-
Piles of Jeffersonian Democracy.
He is for blmetallsm, tariff for
revenue, against monopolies, OPP
posed to Imperialism. against a
large standing army, the enemy of
government by Injunction and the
aggression of the Federal courts I;
in fact, he embodies the ideal Dem
ocrat, and he was cheated out of
the presidency in 1896, and was
only robbed Of the election by boo
die and fraud. This the people well
know, and stand ready to right the
wrong. The Democratic party
must not make the mistake in 1900
that it did in 1880, when it refused
to nominate honest old Sam Tilden,
who had been cheated out of the
presidency just as Bryan has. If it
does 1t will go down in defeat, just
as it did when it nominated the
peerless soldier, Hancock. The
people want Bryan, and true dem
ccracy is to give the people what
they want. The Democratic party
has never been defeated when uni
ted. We have not Cleveland with
his power of patronage to divide us,
In 1900 we will win with Bryan,
