THE VIRGINIA DEBT AGAIN.

The Republican organs of this State
have time and again berated the Reg
lister most viciously for stating the fact
that prominent Republican politicians
are behind the scheme to blk this State
Of millions by saddling a portion of the
Virginia debt onto West Virginia. The
Register has frequently in the past
sounded the alarm in regard to this
scheme which it has been attempted by
Republican leaders at various times for
the past quarter of a century to sneak
heaven, publicity has always succeeded
in defeating the job.
Recently the schemers took a new
tack. Having failed utterly in this
State because of we'll aroused public
sentiment, they turned their attention
toward Congress. We have already al
luded to the Congressional rider that
slipped through at the last session au-
thorizing the Secretary of the Treasury
to sue for certain moneys which would
involve this State with Virginia in
suit regarding certain funds held in
trust by Virginia for certain Indian
tribes. That rider was surreptitiously
tackled onto the bill to reimburse States
and territories for money expended in
equipping volunteer troops for the
Spanish war. The question is. Who
did it? We quote from the West Vir-
ginia Herald, an Independent Republic
can paper at Charleston, as follows:
THAT 'colored gengleman in the fagot
pile, anent the act of Congress which pro-
vides that the Secretary of the Treasury
may institute suit for the recovery of
certain money which would involve this
State in renewal of the controversy over
the Virginia Debt question, is going to
come to the surface one of these days, and
the fine Italian hand of one whose prom
inence in West Virginia affairs has been
distinguished will shine forth in all it's
glory. Watch for it,
This is good Republican authority,
although it was not needed to establish
the well-known fact that certain very
prominent West Virginia Republicans
are at the bottom of this legislative
trick to blk this State and cast upon
its taxpayers heavy debt that could
not be removed in generations-a debt
they DO NOT OWE.
AS our Republican contemporary
says, the truth will all come out in
due time and the people of West vir-
ginia will learn who the traitor in
high Office is.
The Hon. Stephen Benton Elkins
doubtless could cast flood of light on
the subject if he would.
But he won't.

A TART REPLY
From Virgil P. Kline, One of the
Standard Oil Company Counsel. in
Reply to Attorney General Mon
nett.

Cleveland, O., April 16.-Virgil P.
Kline, one of the counsel for the
Standard Oil Company, said to-day con-
corning the statements of Attorney
General Monnett, filed with the SUI
preme Court yesterday:
Mr.. Monnett is simply trying to kick
up dust to cover his retreat. Four
weeks ago, Mr. Elliott and l, in a let
ter which was handed to the Attor-
ney General, demanded that he give
tn ename of the man who he f1ippantly
said had repeatedly made him an offer
of 100000. After this lapse of time
he files a rambling statement, calling
it an information in contempt, and in
which he prays that he requires some
order or process of the Court to assist
him in complying with out request.
This is puerile. He dots not need the
aid of a Court to enable him to give
the name of his friend, and he knows
perfectly we'll that the Supreme Court
will not enter into wild
goose chase. In his statement
filed yesterday he does not say his
friend offered him a bribe. though he
had distinctly charged that heretofore;
and he knew perfectly we'll, whoever
his friend was, and whatever may
have transpired between them, that he
was not being offered bride and that
his friend had no authority to speak
for the Standard Oil Company. Hon.
Daniel ]. Ryan has already denied the
story, so far as he was concerned. Mr..
Watson has done the same over and
over again. / do not know
what action | will take with
respect to this last information OF
contempt / am engaged in Court, and
will be for some days, and when l get
leisure and a certified copy of the
proceedings, | will take some action
which will probably be in the form of
a motion requiring him to state the
names, or in default, that his ISLANDERS
be stricken from the files of the Court.
Having exhausted all sources of adver-
Using furnished by the cases now
pending, the Attorney General has filed
his information, hoping to enter upon
a fishing excursion for sensations to
keep his name before the public at the
expense of the State instead of his own.

Manila Troops wish to Come Home.

Manila, April FIGURING the alb
sence of Major General Lawton's ex-
petition to the Santa Cruz district, on
the southeastern side of Laguna de

offer of bonus in travel pay of over
$500, only about seven per cent. will

desire to come home by organizations
instead of individually. Some dis
charges of individual soldiers has been
brought about by congressional pres
sure, but as a rule Gen. Otis has been
disappearing all applications for dis
charges except in the case of sick or

AN OUTRAGE.

The many friends Of the late Freder-
lex J. Burdette. Of Taylor county, will
bitterly resent the virtual indictment
which was brought against him by the
grand jury of the county named, Sat
urday, and it will be many day before
this browning act of the party man
ayers in that section of the State will
be either forgiven or forgotten. Mr..
Burdette was universally regarded, in
his life time, as man of the highest
probity and honor, and no man in Tay-
lor county had more friends than he.
But something had to be done, and the
deceased was fixed upon as the victim.
In this there appears to have been a
tWo-fold purpose-to attach the stig-
ma of an accusation of guilt upon one
who could never make response, and
to summarily wreck the hopes OF many
citizens that his brother might succeed
to the position. West Virginia Repub-
lican leaders and those who do their
bidding in Taylor county are scarcely
to be congratulated upon this latest evil
dence of their ability and disposition
to meet political necessitates at what
ever cost to character or reputation
The whole proceeding is an outrage
upon the friends and platives of the
deceased, and cannot be too severely
condemned.

one of those bloody conflicts, aThey are

Likewise, with our brave troops,
there is nothing in the work cut out
for them in the Philippines to inspire
patriotic enthusiasm and many of
them do not hesitate to proclaim the
fact that they didn't enlist to fight
naked niggers." But no matter how
distasteful the duty assigned them they
have performed it like the unsurpassed
soldiers they are, carrying the old flag
to gallant victory in every instance
and amid deeds of heroism that could
have been no grander though inspired
by the most just cause and the loftiest
enthusiasm. Our brave troops while
they may not approve the cause in
which they are fighting know that is
question which is not for them to
consider at this time, and they follow
in the line of duty without question and
with all the gallantry of the bravest
and most gallant soldiers in the world.

THE FIRST IMPERIAL STEP A FALSE
ONE.

The annexation of Hawaii, the first
step in the Wall street Hannacratic pol
icy of Imperialism, was heralded as
mighty achievement. But the truth
about it is gradually coming out, as
the truth has habit of doing sooner
or later. The hard facts are vindicating
those who opposed this departure from
our time honored policy and who point
ed out that we needed nothing more
in these islands than a naval or coaling
station. The claim that Hawaii would
be fertile field for American labor or
Individual American enterprise is al
ready exploded and Americans who
have gone there with the idea Of i'm
proving their material fortunes have
been sadly disappointed.
A returned soldier who spent some
time in Hawaii gives an estimate as to
the opportunities offered to Americans
there.
"The only person who has an oppor-
tunity in Hawaii said he, els the Eng
lish or American capitalist. Trades
men from this country who go there
with the intention of making perma-
nent home find nothing but idleness
and no prospect but poverty. Very lit
tie building is done. and when carpen-
tiers, masons or other skilled workmen
are needed the contractors bring them
from San Francisco, where they return
when the work is finished. 1 never saw
a native following a regular occupa-
ton. Work on the plantations is done
by Cinnamon who are hired for a mere
pittance."
The annexation of Hawaii was largely
the outcome of pressure brought to bear
by Wall street-especially was the
Sugar Trust interested in securing the
annexation of this great sugar growing
country And the scheme has been gen.
orally denounced by honest men as a
steal and grab Even the indaCendent
Washington Post. -tnich usually sup
ports the administration, says or ~:
'sOur annexation of Hawaii was mere
caprice without the shadow of necessity or
obligation to defend it. The plea that we
had been asked to annex the Sandwiee
Islands will not bear serious examination
We were asked by handful of white men
who had seized the government. The
great masses of the people were as averse
to our occupation as are the Fiipinos
themselves
Verify, the Hannacratic reversal of
this governments historic policy has
been of little avail.
Hawaii has proven an undesirable
and useless dependency, which we are,
nevertheless, compelled to govern.
Yet, evidently having learned naught,
the administration is now wasting pre-
cious American life and treasure in the
scheme to similarly annex the much
more undesirable and worthless Phil
ippines.
4 few Wall street capitalists will
make big money out of them. But what
will the American people gain?
Nothing-but heavier burdens.
