DIR, CLARK ON THE BOERS.

In an address to the Congregational
Club in the New York few days ago,
DIR. Il. L. Clark speaking of the war In
South Africa said:
The worlds progress Is indebted to
Great Britain for the way In VIII ioh she
has exercised substantial justics In her
colonies. Although she has much 90
bl ush for, she Is In advance Of other ia
tons In her treatment OF her dependen-
ciss. The Beers, look upon Africa M
theirs ms Americans look upon America
as thei $, and In their own Flew are
lighting for their native country and
their hresides.
at Is because they stand together, I'M
derstand each other, and love their Presi-
dent, that they are making light.
'Whsn l met President Kruger short
time ago." hs said to me: Are you one
of the Yankees who always run to tins
Queen whsn they get into trouble
This was after the Jameson raid, when
some Americans In the Iransvaal had
put themselves under the protection OF
the British Consul Kruger told me
that he was glad to have any one come &c
the country who loved the Lord Jesus
Christ"
DIR. Clark said that the word "Boer.
(:'farmer,'D which stands for their ra %
reveals not only their rustic side, but
strengi h Of men who live In the sountry,
and they average six feet In height.
"I saw the Volksraad Of the Orange
Free State convene he said, land there
were forty splendid specimens Of men.
Most of them were six feet two inches
tall, do not wonder that this British
generals have had trouble In conflict
with such men as these" He added
that they were not unlike the old New

Mrs. Kruger, IL Is said, makes her own
dresses and fats, and never owns more
than three gowns or two bonnets ct a
time. Sh. has always refused to wsar
feathers, and has used her influence with
the women of the 1ransvaal against
them. She gave another instance of her
interest In birds wh n the sculptor who

Senator Hoar Is standing by his oon'
viotions in regard to the treatment that
should be accorded the Filipinos with
firmness which does him great honor
and We have no doubt he will make q
gallant fight for them. Apparent
ly, however, his struggle Is
hopeless. Even the Republican SEN
ators who stood with him a year
ago seem to have deserted him upon one
pretsxt and another, and left him to
continue the tattle single-handsd. But
failure doss not detract from the honor
and respect which q man always COM

TO TEST INHERITANCE TAX.
Thoma. n. Reed Preparing an. Argu-
ment Co Attack fts Constitutional
~.

New York Dec. Ia-whiie he was In
Washington ut the opening Of Congress
early in the present month, former
Speaker Thomas b. Reed. instead Of be-
ing concerned In matters Of state as was
generally supposed, was preparing an ar
gument Ia an attack on the constitution
slity of the Inheritance tax law, In which
n numbcr of attorneys throughout the
country are interested More than
dozen oates hang on the result OF Mr..
Reeds argument, although other attor'
nsys have submitted briefs on the same
lines to the United States Supreme court
The con stitutionality of what he known
as the Succession taxes IL being attacked
and the ground taken by the lawyers as
explained By one Of them Is as follows:
"Ths suits are to determine the oonsti-
nationality of what 10 known as ihe sue
csssion texss. The Government under
takes to make eststes OF deceased persons
throughout the United States pay taxes
fer the privilege Of transT ission and IL
classln ties them In way |hich, IL 10 con-
tended, 10 contrary TO the law OF uni
formity, which the constitution de-
mands. Under the law ms 10 now stands
parties bearing one rstatioH snip 70 inc ue'
ceased ray one rate of taxation and Other
parties OF different relationship another
and the whole rate OF taxation 10 also
affected by the amount Of the estate left
as we'll as BY the amount OF each legacy.
1t Ia alsU claimed by thoss who dispute
the oonstitutionality Of the law that the
taxation lie direct, and that as thu consti-
tuition provides that all direct taxes bs
assessed by census, and these are not In
accord with census, they are not oonsti.
tutional. The states alone have the right
TO prescrlbs the conditions and methods
Of transfers of property from the estate OF
dscedent to others. and the Law OF the
United States In It's present form, we
maintain, Is an atteEapt to control the
transfer OF properly and therefore inter-
feres with the rights reserved to states.
There IL also involved In some OF the
cases question whether or net the indi-
rect taxation of bonds of the United
states Il included In the law. Some Of
the opponents Of the present law think
that the decision in the income tax cases
covers thsir contention and that there is
no distinction between the moons and
sue cession taxes, rs far as the United
States court IL concerned"

THE GOVERNMENT IN THE PHIL
IPPINES.

II we give to the Filipinos a govern
ment liberal, secure and free, there will
bs no trouble, declares Mabinn, who has
bsen reokoned the brains of the insurreo-
tion. Undoubtedly this Is the kind OF
government the great mass OF Americans
intend shall re given them. But, unfor-
tunately, there Is an element la the coun-
try which has been disposed to measure
our duty to, and determine our policy
in, the Philippines, purely by commercial
considerations. MIR. DENLY Of the COM
mission is one of them. He has declared
that unless the Philippines can be made
to pay we should abandon them and let
the inhabitants cut one auother's threats
IL they want to. Few men OF prominence
have stated the commercial policy quite
80 BADLY and brutally as tt at, Yet the
commercial idea has a good many sup
ro.ters, and experience mas shown a great
a country for the dollars there are In It,
is sure 10 be pushed with great deal
of vigor. Now 1t 10 as certain as any
thing can be that II this Idea becomes
paramount In our policy toward the
philippines we shall have in those Is
lands a discontented and restless people
who will be constantly plotting to throw
of our government, and whom we can
keep in subsection only by means of a
large army supported ut large expense
TO the Taxpayers. 1t is further certain
that this danger is not so slight that
we can afford to shut our eyes to 1t, in
the calm faith thss any government that
may be established Ia the Philippines
will necessarily be free and liberal and
lust because the American flag will float
over 1t. The American flag has tioated
over good many iujustices. 1t is float
ing over many at ths South today, where
the negro Is habituaily deprived Of his
rights not only at the ballot box. but In
the courts. 1t has fioated for q hundred
years over q government Of the Indians,
which has not bsen just 10 be sure the
injustioes In both these Gases were
largely the outgrowth of the CLOSE prox-
unity to one another of different races.
and this difficulty will not be present
In the Philippines But there will be
other difficulties quite rs serious. and
Il will require our best efforts to avoid
them.
The fundamental principle Of our ruls
