BOND ISSUE COMING.


So THE Sabin people will apply for
$50, 900 more county aid bonds in a
remarkably short time for the Bay
field and Western extension. The
counly beard, when they inspect the
road, will doubtless find it partially
completed-tbe rails barely down,
and it will be discretionary with
them to accept it. If the board has
the interests Of Bayfield, county at
heart it would seem to us that if
there is a chance to undo this mon
strous wrong by declining to accept
as completed, half-built piece OF
road, as being up to the contract,
that they will knock out this new
issue of bond. Such things ought to
oe more earthly looked after by the
weople, and such "demnition work
stopped. A load is being saddled
onto the taxpayers which is unjust,
and which practically means the
uination of the country.

northern portion of Wisconsin there lies a
vast portion of undeveloped, or partially de-

with fine hardwood timber are open to the
settler, who can obtain as much as he de-

BRYAN AND MCKINLEY.

Mr.. BRYAN will undoubtedly be
his party's candidate for the presi-
dency next year. 1t is intimated
that one of the reasons why Nebras-
ka went fusion" in the elections
aast week, was the lack Of effort
made by the republicans. And this
was not without good reason. Ne
braska being close, it was thought to
be just as well TO let it go into the
Bryan column, which would insure
the nomination of the "boy orator of
the Platte next year. Bryan thus
will owe his nomination principally
to republican non activity in his own
state. A new man, with modern
ideas might be serious problem for
the republicans to encounter next
year, but the fossilized ''16 to y
views of Vim. Jennings Bryan are
about as easy thing as republicans
wish to go up against, and there is
no question about the ultimate re-
suit with Mckinley and Bryan as
opponents in the coming contest.

Gov. Scott eld's Weak Faith

Gov. Scofeld, of Wisconsin, is evi
IDENTIFY tinctured a little with the
"anti" virus. He remarked recent
ly, anent the Philippine problem
The American people cannot, l be.
lieve, undertake with safety the as.
similation of 5000, 900 or more for,
eigners alien to us in every char
acteristic. And it is folly to talk Of
maintaining permanently our SUI
premacy over those people without
working towards assimilation. II
is worse than folly-it is criminal. "
Gov. Scofield's meaning is a little
| obscure. 1t may De useful to in
quire, first what he means by as
similation? Does he mean the alb
sorption of races through inter-mar-
riage? That is assimilation, OF
course, that could only be brought
about by an immense emigration of
Americans to the PHILIPPINES, or an
immense emigration of Fillipinos to
the United States. But there is
another sort of assimilation. It is
che absorption by the natives of the
principals and practices of American
CIVILIZATION, and there is no reason
why that Sort of assimilation should
not proceed rapidly when American
supremacy is once established.
Has Gov. Scofield stopped to con-
slider how strong the influence of
American schools, established in
every locality, and the American sys-
tenn of government, ably and honest
ly administered, would prove? He
must surely possess weak faith in
the vitality of our institutions if he
thinks they would not per.neate the
PHILIPPINE islands if given full swing
under the protection Of the Ameri-
can flag.
American supremacy, of course,
means political assimilation, and
that is the only assimilation that we
aim at. After American authority
is once acknowledged the Filipinos
and as fast as each Filipino, and as
soon as be could demonstrate his
fitness, would be admitted to the ex-
ercise of local franchise and the
people of the islands would thus
learn self-governing ways.
1t would be strange indeed if this
great people could not 'assimilate"
the 5000, 900 people of the PHILIPPINE
islands-in the proper way. Gov.
Scofeld says it would be criminal
folly to attempt to maintain our
supremacy without working to-
wards assimilation. Perhaps it
would be, but there is no intention
of doing anything of the kind. We
are working toward assimilation
now. Every insurgent town oc-
cupied by our troops is step in that
direction. Gov. Scofeld should
come in squarely under The flag or
get off the reservation altogether.
