John Merely has practically collected
all his materials for writing the life Of
Gladstone. No reserve of any kind has
been imposed on him by the family, and
his task is being greatly facilitated by
the wonderful order preserved by the
great man in the disposal of his papers.
The actual writing, therefore, may begin
at once MI. Morley assigns himself a
limit of three years for the completion
of his work. 1t may, however, be finish
ed in two.

Senator Foraker, of Ohio, in replying
to Senator Hoar last Wednesday on the
Philippine question, took not only the
senate and gallery, but the entire coun-
try, by surprise when he emphatically
declared that 1--WE decided to take pos
session of them ourselves for the present,
at least, until the people Of those islands
are ready for and capable of self-govern-
ment." "Then we are to understand
the statement that the American flag is
not to be hauled down." said Mr.. Hoar,
'does not mean that we are to hold per-
petual demain." And Foraker answered:
mo one, so far as 1 am able to learn,
is prepared by force and violence to
take and hold them. 1 have no sympa-
thy with those who talk of making war
on Aguinaldo any more than 1 had with
those who talked of making war on

The Boston Courier editorially says:
1t is melancholy fact that men at
Washington who assume to speak for
the administration, declare it to be the
duty of the United States to proceed
with armed force against the successful
insurgents in Panay and take from them
the territory-their own territory, their
native land-which they have by their
own heroism wrested from their Span
ish oppressors. The idea of imperialism
must have advanced with rapid strides
over the country if such action is ap-
proved. We do not believe the Ameri-
can people will consent that their repub-
lie shall step into the place of the Span
ish monarchy for such work as this.

Of the late Bishop Nulty, FIR. Cronin
says in the Buffalo Union and Times:
He was a giant in courage and intel
lectual endowments, who feared no foe.
He flung himself into the war which the
people waged against their oppressors
with all the energy and eloqlence
worthy the days of DR.. Doyle and Daniel
O'Connell. His pen and tongue gave
light and guidance to lesser leaders; and
he only retired from the field when he
felt that his presence was no longer
needed. Bishop Nulty was prelate of
great eloquence and learning; and it is
needless to say that his memory will be
cherished as one of Ireland's great pa
triot bishops.

Martin E. Tew, Minneapolis soldier
in the Philippines, writes to the Times
from Manila saying that the news an
nouncing the purchase of the islands was
read by the majority Of American SOL
diers with many expressions OF regret,
anger and despair. Among the Min
nesota volunteers" he says, "the express
sions of disapproval were especially
strong. Many paced up and down with
clenched fists, cursing the day that they
enlisted and helped to bring about such
contamination" He says no one likes
fighting more thoroughly than the Amer
lean soldiers, but the most common ex-
pressions among them now is that they
came to fight oppression and injustice
and not to conquer territory or slaugh-
ter a people fighting for their indepen-
dence. The Hanna Mckinley expansion
lists will find it difficult to enlist American
soldiers for the subjugation of the brave
Filipinos, and if they resort to the draft
they may bring on a revolution.

At meeting of the Democratic state
central committee of Illinois, recently
held at Springfield, resolutions were
adopted naming Col. William ]. Bryan
as the party standard-bearer for 1900.
Mr.. Bryan was in the city at the time
and made public speech in which he
said that when that time arrives, the
Democrats of the United States will Sc
lect as their leader and candidate the
man who can unite all sections of tte
party, and stand the strongest with the
people. The man to be selected will
have to command the respect of the peo-
pie of the United States, and as far as
he was concerned he wanted the mem
bers of the committee to feel free to work
for whom they might think would prove
the strongest man.

thing left to be done and that is for
President Mckinley to issue ukase re-
quiring all the south sea islanders to
provide themselves with bedsteads, and
to lie upon them, and if they still refuse
send the regular army to lasso them, and
when they are caught forcibly strap
them on beds as patients are strapped
to surgeons tables. I submit that if

The appointment of Martin McIiale, of
Minneapolis, for commissioner of labor
is a good one. The Irish Standard
knows Mr.. McHale intimately and has
no hesitation in predicting that he will

Archbishop Ireland says that the re-

to the effect that the Pope would not al

is an absurdity of the first magnitude.
The many stories now floating in the

Rome must be taken with big grain of
salt. The latest is that the Pope is
greatly displeased with the archbshop's
attitude on the Spanish-American war.
There is absolutely no truth in the
