SNATCH EVERYTHING IN SIGHT.

G. z. Huntington is consistent ex-
pansionists. Having golbbled up the Pa
cific railroad, prevented the construction
of the Nicaragua canal, and maintained
costly lobby at Washington many
years, Coils Huntington is your ideal
expansionist. He knows it means fat
pickings for the few who are on the in
side. 1--WE never do anything for our
health is one of his business maxims.
Speaking recently to some friends in Cal
ifornia, he said:
Gentlemen, / believe that expansion
is a good thing for the commercial inter
ests of this country. / believe in snatch
ing everything in sight That has been
my motto for number of years"
The only difference between Mr.. Hun
tington and the other imperialists is that
he is more brutally candid. He talks out
in meeting. The rest seek to hide their
selfish or political aims by hopocritical
cant about benevolent assimilation and
carrying civilization and the gospel to
the islanders
Il believe in snatching everything in
sight is the honest and frank declara-
ton that discloses the willingness to sac
rifice brave American soldiers to get n

NEWSPAPERS BY
LAW.

The California Legislature, in an at
tempt to make newspaper writer's feel
their responsibility enacted a law provid-
ing that:
Every article, statement or editorial
contained in any newspaper or other
printed publication printed or published
in this state, which by writing or print
ing tends to blacken the memory of one
who is dead, or to impeach the honesty,
integrity, virtue or reputation, or pub
fish the natural or alleged defects of one
who is alive. and thereby expose him or
her to public hatred, contempt or ridi-
Guile, must be supplemented by the true
name of the writer of such article, state
ment or editorial signed or printed at the
end thereof
The penalty for failure to add the sig
nature is $1,000, one-half 20 go TO the
State and one-half to the person bring
ing the suit 1t is the first time in his
tory, we think, that compulsory signature
is required by law, but in Paris it is Gus
and in this country some journals have
voluntarily adopted the custom in refer
ence to reports that treat of important
matters. During the war with Spain
most of the New York papers had spe
cial correspondents who signed their
stories from the front.
The California law makes q newspaper
look ridiculous, compelling all items of
the most trivial character 10 be signed.
and it will be repealed after a short trial
shows its absurdity. But tie idea that
all important articles ought tc be signed
is a good one and will one o. these days
grow into a general customs.

HOW WILL 1T TAKE?

A few weeks ago the imperialists told
us that the Filipinos would be defeated
in a few days and the people would wei
come American rule in the islands. The
DAYS have heightened into weeks and
from present appearances the weeks will
lengthen into months before there is any
semblance Of peace, and then through
out the years there will be occurrences of
the struggle if we seek to hold islands
for which we have no use and which
ought to be free.
Gen. Lloyd Wheaton has written to his
sister in Bridgeport, Conn, indicating
that the war may be permanent saying;
II suppose we shall have to stay and
reduce the F'iipinos. The Spaniards
were at it 37S years, and we can stay
as long as that if necessary"
DIR. J. Sanger, who has lived eight
years at Manila, and is now in Washing
ton to confer with the Surgeon General
about the American hospital service, is
quoted as saying:
''The experience of the past teaches
that Filipino rebellion is never put
down until the last one of the army is
either killed or driven out of the coun-
try. Frequently they will acknowledge
submission and return to their homes,
only to break out again as soon as they
have recovered from previous losses.
Aguinaldo has, according to reports, over
SO. 900 men under arms, besides numer-
Gus supporters and sympathlzers. lie Is
kept constantly informed as to the Amer
lean movements, and knows their exact
strength at all times. Manila, i'll fact
every town in the islands, is full of Fill
pino spies. / never feel safe with my
own servants, for | know positively that
they are in sympathy with the insur-
gents. / do not believe that the insur-
rection will be put down until the island
is entirely surrounded by a naval patrol
strong enough to prevent the landing
of a rowboat and even then Gen. Otis
will have to have enough troops TO
sweep the island from one end to the
other"
With the rainy season not far off, 1t
is cruel murder of brave American
troops to compel them to die fighting
such people when no good or honorable
purpose can be subserved by sacrificing
them in an unholy war.
