RCHI0AAbh Oh4CCs
Boston. May N.-Charles J. Bonaparte.
Of Baltimore, who was recently elected a
vice president in the anti-Imperialist
League of this city. has written letter
telling why he cannot accept the place. In
his letter Mr.. Bonaparte says he cannot
assent to the resolutions recently adopted
by the league. He blames President Nc
Kinley for his course in the Philippines,
and goes on to say:
II should not, as at present advised. rec
ommend negotiations with the revoited
Filipinos or any attempt to organize
quasi government under our
suzerainty or protection in the archipsl-
ago. II we must own the islands in any
sense or become at all responsible for
their peace and good government. then l
think that a system OF administration
modelled substantially upon that CT British
India will be Indispensable to their pros
perity and our security; and complete sub
mission to our authority on the part CT the
inhabitants is obviously the first step to-
ward its establishment. / may add that
while fully recognize the injustice, even
the absurdity, of those charges OF dis
LOYALTY which have been of late freely
made against some members of the league.
and also that many honorable and patri-
otic men do not feel as l do on this sub
ject, / am personally unwilling to take
any part in an agitation which may have
some tendency to cause public enemy to
persist in armed resistance, or may be at
least plausibly represented as having this
tendency. There can be no doubt that as
a matter OF fact the country is at war with
Aguinaldo and his followers. l profoundly
regret this fact. l think its cause very
discreditabIe to our President and his offi-
cial advisors, but it is a fact nevertheless,
and as such must weigh in determining my
conduct as a citizen"

England and America.

Great Britain and the United States are now
very close together, and it is to be hoped that
this friendship may never be interrupted Prob
ably in the future some questions may arise
which may produce temporary irritation, but the
sober sense Of both Americans and Englishmen
should not permit any serious estrangemcnt be-
tween these nations. Great Britain is the best
customer which the United States has for its
surplus products. Moreover, it has opened not
only British ports to our commerce, but has given
US to the ports of its dependencies well.
British capital is largely invested in the United
States, and British ships carry great part of
the foreign commerce Of this country. The ties
which bind the two countries are not merely of
a sentimental or racial character, therefore, but
are also Of most practical nature. Under these
circumstances the good understanding which ex-
lists between the English-speaking nations is a
most natural and desirable development. Ameri
cans as well as Englishmen- will unite in the
hope that Queen victora's successor may be as
enlightened and humane a sovereign as the pres
ent monarch is and has been throughout her long
reign.

The GrNsIuate,

The season OF "commencements" is ad-
vancing apace, and the flood of class-day
rhetoric will soon be upon us. To the end
of time the blooming girl-graduate will
probably point out the fact that ''The Dark
est Night Brings Out the Stars" and the
young man graduate will descant on the
truth that Beyond the Alps Lies Italy"
and the middle-aged people in the audience,
the fathers and mothers and uncies and
aunts of these young people, will smile and
sigh. and wipe their spectacles as they
realize the mingled truth and futility of
such pleasant sentiments. They know that
starlight is not of very much use in travel
ing along a muddy road, and that when one
reaches the Italy beyond the Alps there are
apt to be ailments in the way of malaria,
and Roman fever, and leas, and brigands,
so that the pilgrim often looks back to his
Alpine travels as the pleasantest period of
his journey. But they do not say all these
things-at least not on commencement day.
They know that after all, Joy and sorrow
are so mixed in this world that even the
have their delights.
The real pathos of the situation lies not
in the fact that the young people cannot
always be young. and must encounter toll
and struggle and danger n their progress
through life. These things are all good.

Business and Charity.

In his third and last great novel, "The

tor, ex-adventurer, and ex-rascal, tu, n

plans to be charitable on a magnificent
scale, with the distinct understanding that
his munificence is an investment, with an
earldom as the ultimate goal. He believes
that the poor of London will respond to
his efforts more quickly than to those of
the man who gives. hoping for nothing
but a high place in heaven. He thinks
that his will be the generosity which they
can understand.
There is suggestiveness in this concep-
tion, which is SO daring and original as to
be thoroughly characteristic of Frederic.
AS a matter of fact, Thorpe may be found
in the flesh on this side the water. what
ever may be the condition of affairs in
England. There are many rich men who
have paved the way to political preferment
with munifcent gifts to some particular
town or city.
The question whether the Thorpe type
of man will accomplish more good than
the wealthy philanthropist Of the story
books who gives freely and ungrudgingly
for the pure love Of charity, is too large
a problem to be easily settled. Perhaps
there will always be some doubt about it.
There are usually few people who ap-
preciate the purity Of the latter's motives.
but the general opinion is that he is In
some occult way feathering his own nest.
So. says Thorpe. 1t is Just as well to come
out honestly and do the feathertng In
broad daylight, demanding nothing SO dif-
ficult as gratitude and admiration-excspt
admiration for the splendid executive abil-
ity which plans and carries out great en-
terprises.

question may be, there are some aavan-

which renders it ridiculous. Vessels sailing
under it to foreign ports would be at the

have no consul to appeal to, and redress for
any sort of imposition, grievance, or out

Anairs I'm The philippines.

Adyices from Manila are full of interest
ii not of encouragement. II is universally
asserted in Manila, and with excellent rea-
son, that the Tagal mutiny cannot now be
put down without a much larger military
force than General Otis has at his COM
mand Our troops find no difficulty in
whipping the rebels whenever they en-
counter them. but our army is too small 10
hold conquered territory and Is Obliged to
abandon interior towns and villages as
soon as they are taken. Numbers Of such
places have been reoccupied by the ma
tiyes, who, in addition, swarm in the jun
giles near our lines waiting for chances TO
cut off small parties of American soldiers.
This is not 4 very comfortable condition
of affairs. but 1t is the logical result OF
recent Administration foolishness. kguin-
aldo knew all along ,:iat the insufficient
force opposed to him could never drtye
him TO the wall. but. until the advent OF
the DENLY meddlers, he always supposed
that heavy endorsements woaid be sent.
The Peace Commission was great relief
to the Filipino leader and his co-conspira-
tors To them ii meant that the United
States could not send any more troops and
that il was a general confession of weak
ness and a movement in the nature of beg
ging them for peace.
They have acted accordingly, taking care
to waste ali the time possible until the
rainy season should be at-hand when they
believed the Government would give up
any idea of campaigning until autumn, and
trusting to what might happen in the IN
terim favorable to their hopes. Appear
ances indicate that Aguinaldo has planned
and carried out this programme largely on
the advice of his adherents in this country
who doubtless have made him believe that
if he could avoid surrender for few
months the army : in the Philippines
could be melted to mutiny, while the
cost and trouble of military opera
tions in Luzon would make the ef-
fort to hold the island unpopular
among the American people. Professor
Schurman. through no conscious fault OF
his own, has helped Aguinaldos hand i'm
mensely with his doddering belief
that his powers OF persuasion and
his ability as lecturer on political econO-
my and the science of government would
induce the Filipinos to lay down their
arms. He has accomplished exactly what
the rebels most wanted, which was TO keep
the hands of General Otis tied until the
season for field operations should be over.
1t would seem that the Malay character
is not entirely devoid of gratitude. The
efficient service which Schurman, DENLY.
and Worcester have rendered to the ma
tive cause Is being recognized in Manila,
and leading Filipinos are reported as hold
ing receptions and giving banquets in
honor Of the Commissioners. The whole
Luzon business has been missrably mud
died, but that cannot be helped now. There
is but one solitary thing left to do and that
is to call off and discharge the civilian
meddlers and to call for enough volunteers
TO eat up the mutiny.

and probably always will be. That does not,
however, mean that it will ever lead to an open
rupture. Friction does not necessarily mean
clashing. The present duty is to maintain the
tripartie system until-if ever-it can be replaced
with better one, and while it is maintained to
keep the inevitable friction at a minimum. That
is the work which the Commissioners have in
hand and which, we venture to believe. they
will satisfactorily perform.

The United States Church Army" an an
mex of the Salvation organization. is about
to combat alcohol with tea saloons in New
York. We wish the scheme well. but fear
that it will eventuate in failure. Some
years ago the reform element gained con-
troll of the United States Senate, and sue
ceeded in substituting "cold tea" in tea
pots, for beverages previously popular In
that body. In the face of the ware OF vir-
tue which at that time swept over the
chamber, such soul-destroying liquids as
winks. 1.-The same" and the hair OF the
dog" disappeared from the face OF the foor
and the cloakrooms. Nothing but cold tea
was to be seen, and much Joy was express
ed by the W. C. T. U. and other absti-
nence organizations, because the Senators
seemed to take SO kindly to the
.'cup which cheers while it does not in
ebriate," always supposiug the contents to
be according to the pledge. Experience
however, showed that, while the vessels
scattered over the desks and what was In
them always bore the aspect Of Bohea, an
aroma rose TO the galleries suggestive OF
the bourbonic plague, while the heads next
morning were as macrocephaious as IN the
sad, bad days before the reform So we
are a little skeptical about those cold tea
houses in New York.
