srILL BUrrING A STONE WALL.

The Intelligencer still denies the au-
thenticity of the Naples interview with
Admiral Dewey by the London Daily
News correspondent, and it repeats that
the Admiral has repeatedly repudia-
ted it.
OF course, we need not say that this
is false. for Admiral Dewey, though
repeatedly and personally asked by
newspapers and correspondents wheth-
er his Naples utterances were anthem
tically reported, has with equal per-
sistency refused to deny them as pub
lished.
There is nothing strange in this.
The Admiral will certainly not deny
utterances which are merely repeti-
tons of what he has written over his
own signature to the Navy Depart
ment, and which are now part Of the
official documents of the United States
T goyegnmenA
These utterances Of Admiral Dewey,
repeated by him in his Naples inter
view, constitute the strongest possible
reputation of the un-American and
unconstitutional policy of the admins
tration in the Philippines.
1t is not at all strange that being so
at loggerheads with the administra-
ton as to it's policy the Admiral while
wearing the uniform of the United
States, should prefer not to harp upon
this theme. He is On the government
record and that suffices. Indeed, this is
the reason that Dewey, who officially
recognized the government of Aguin-
aldo and openly co-operated with Ag-
uinaldo's army in the capture of Ma
Mia, was promptly turned down by
Mr. Mckinley and superseded in au-
thority in the islands by Gen. Otis, a
more plant tool.
The Intelligencer says that Admiral
Dewey is not alone great hero. He
is a diplomat and a patriot, and an
honorable officer" Our neighbor for
got to add that Admiral Dewey is also,
a true American. All of which ac-
counts for his pronounced antagonism
to the rm-Ameriean policy of conquest
of our Wall street owned administra-
tion which is engaged in the sorry
work of trying to crush a people who
had already gained their independence
from Spain.

experiment will be watched with keen
interest on account of the labor prob :
lem. 1t is anticipated that English
workmen will not take kindly to Amer
lean methods, and it is thought that the
company may be compelled to charter
large steamship. to transport thou
sand American workmen to England.
1t is believed that there are many Eng
lish and Scotch mechanics in this COM
try who are thoroughly trained in our
methods, and who would be glad 10
return to the old country in the employ
of the company.
This move will be certain to SIR
things up in the English labor world.
which is already decidedly FESTIVE.
When American machines, which are
crowding English machines out of
their own markets, are followed by the
American workman himself it is get
ting rather serious for English labor.
The collapse of the great strike of
English mechanics inaugurated by the
Associated Society of Engineers, while
it has brought about some revision OF
English labor laws. mas not had the
effect of suppressing the labor unions
it was expected to have. Fairplay's
latest resume OF the report Of the La
Dor Department Of tie Board of Trade
shows that 81 fresh trade disputes &C.
CURED in July, involving 10,022 WORK
ers, and 63 old and new disputes were
settled. involving 14,37S workers. All
of which would seem to show that Eng
fish labor unions are still very much
alive Of these disputes Is resulted in
favor of the men. 10 in favor of the
employers and % were compromised.
The result of the introduction of
American labor and American labor
saving machinery into England will be
watched with much interest

The Registers motto seems to be: Haul
down the American flag! Forsake solemn
treaty obligations! Leave the interests OF
ment Of anarchy The honor and integ-
rttv of the nation in the eyes of civilization
be Observation-Disclosures
OF course, we need not say that the
Register has never advised the haul
ing down of the flag" in the Philippines.
Let the flag remain there on the ground
we now hold. A coaling and supply
station at Manila will give us all the
advantages and none of the disadvaut-
ages of complete ownership OF the arch
ipelago and without responsibility for
its government against the will of its
people. Secondly, what are these sol
emn treaty obligations" which the
Fourteenth street organ is always pratt
ing about?
AS to leaving the interests Of friend
ly nations to the mercy of "a govern
ment of anarchy" we have the word Of
Dewey that the "Filipinos are more
capable of self government than the
Cubans," to whom we propose to give
Independence.
Lastly it is the imperialists of the
Mckinley administration who say in
effect THE honor and integrity of the
nation in the eyes of civilization be
bowed" 1t is such as our neighbor
and the administration of which he is a
faithful organist, who would dishonor
cur government in the eyes of civiliza-
ton by pulling down the Declaration
of independence, throwing overheard
the Monroe Doctrine and RELOCATING to
the junk pile the Constitution of the
| United States.
Has our contemporary become 50
enamored of the demagogic style Of
argument that it no longer values the
truth?

Government crop reports for Septem-
Der show the lowest average condition
of cotton with one exception for TWEEN
ty-five years. Strange to say, this was
followed by a sharp decline in the mar
ket, which has only partially recovered
on the strength of continued dry
weather advices from the cotton belt,
which have had the effect of shaking
bearish trade predictions of another
crop of II 100000 bales or more.
Likewise the wheat forecasts are less
encouraging and ought to have detid-
ed bullish effect on the market, but
there seems to be little confidence in
speculative circles, while the market
lacks the stimulus of an active export
demand
Of course this timidity of the bulls to
take advantage of conditions that or
dinarily would lift the market is due
to the growing tension in the money
market Easy money and low rates for
loans have more effect in giving the
speculative fraternity confidence and
in booming prices than any other factor
in the speculative market. When this
confidence is lacking it would seem that
the ordinarily powerful stimulants of
price imitation have little effect.

tirR.'s RICHNESS.

Referring to Gen. Funston, of Kan
sas, the greatest hero OF the Philip
pines, except Dewey, and VINO is even
more pronounced than the Admiral in
condemning Mr.. McKinley's unAmeri-
can policy, which he says is calculated
to benefit no one but ricn syndicates,
the Intelligencer speaks in this con-
temptuous manner:
AS for Funston, another one of the
traitors. as the Register sarcasticalIy
calls them: While he was a brave soldier.
and accomplished good work in the Philip
pines, for which he received deserved pro-
motion, Funston has been a long while
home, and is not familiar with the situa-
ton as it now is.
This is calculated to make a horse
laugh. Gen. Funston, who did heroic
work fighting the Filipinos face to face,
and recently returned from the islands
with his command, has been such "a
long while home" that he doesn't know
as much about the Philippines situa-
ton as the Fourteenth street organist,
who knows it all, though he has never
seen the Philippines except on the In
telligencer cockloft map of the world!
