REPUBLICAN POLICY.
1t Is Outlined in a Speech by Mr..
Dawes,

SPRINGFIELD, Ill, Dec. 29.-CharleB
G. Dawes, comptroller Of the currency,
made speech at the Republican state
love feast in the assembly hall today
which aroused the greatest enthusiasm
and was regarded by many as outlining
the policy Of the administration on two
points-the Philippine policy and the atti-
tude Of the Republican party towards
trusts. After comparing the conditions
prevailing in 1885, when the Republican
party came into power, with the present,
Mr.. Dawes claimed that as the party had
proved itself able to cope with adverse
conditions it would be aSle to continue
in prosperity. Speaking of trusts, Mr..
Dawes said it was the duty Of the Repub-
ncan party to take hold Of the subject
theoretically and without wavering. It
was its duty to conserve public interests.
Wherever trusts proved themselves inirn-
zeal to the public veal they must be re-
trained and controlled, and, If necessary
laws must be passed that would so en-
courage active competition as to bring
about the disintegration of the trusts
Mr.. Dawes did not claim all trusts were
in restraint of trade. but those that
proved themselves to be such should be
legislated against.
Rather than have in the hands of any
corporation the power to absolutely fix
the price of a necessity of life at an ar
OltIdIy inquire, the people or the United
States will eventually and rightfully do
one Of two things said Mr.. Dawes;
they will enact legislation for the abso-
Lutte protection of the people from extor-
ton by governmental regulation, more or
less extended, as public necessities may
require, or they will enact legislation for
the increase and creation of competition
with the trusts. With nothing less than
one Of these two things will or should
the people of this country be satisfied
The question Of the proper legislative
treatment of these great combinations
formed for the purpose Of monopolstic
control Of production and the distribu-
ton of some necessities and comforts of
life, Is one of the greatest and most prac-
teal which ever confronted the political
parties Of the nation, and our party must
take the first steps in its solution
Mr.. Dawes spoke at some length on the
Philippine situation, asserting that en-
enlargement received from anti-imperiaI-
lists had much to do with the prolongation
of the war He said that as President
Mckinley had refused to be hurried by
the clamor of jingoes before the Spanish
war, so now would he refuse to be turn
ed from his course in regard to the Phil
ippines by the protests of the anti-im-
perialists.

CIVILIZATION, SAYS SENATOR MEL


If abuse Of the opposition and the as
sumption of all the virtues are to be re-
garded as effective political argument
the addresses Of the speakers at that
Republican gathering held on Thursday
evening in Minneapolis must be regarded
as deserving of unstinted praise. From
Senator Nelson to Mr.. Bede the speakers
at that meeting united in going on the
theory that all that was evil In political
thought and action was embodied in the
proposals of their political opponents, and
that the fiag-that Republican symbol of
one-sided patriotism-was being saved
from dishonor only through the des-
perate efforts of Republican politicians.
It is not difficult to overlook anything
which full-fedged national statesmen of
the Tawney variety see fit to urge in any
direction. They are in a state of con-
slant verbal eruption. But when a staid
and thoughtful man like Senator Nelson
has nothing to present In sustainment of
his partys attitude save revilings Of his
political opponents it may be assumed
that the imperialist cause is not in that
state Of absolute security which the Re
publican machine would have the country
believe
The senator finds fault with the oppo-
rents of the policy of force in the Philip
pines because they do not come as spirit

ual guides Spiritual influences, no doubt,
impress themselves on the senator as
these which are most likely to be effect
i've with the band of patriots whose pro-
prietary interest In the presidency is
now universally recognized. These fool
ish men dread large army, quoth this
sagacious politician, even though 1t has
happened that all the armies that have
ever been organized in the United States
have, at least the survivors of them,
quietly disbanded when ordered to do so,
and returned to their respective callings
in civil life. 1t has, indeed. all uncon-
sciously come to be accepted as tenet
of inperiallst faith that war and armies
are line things per Sc. There is no thought
of the cost of life and treasure of these
Institutions. We are out for conquest
and commerce. and we can, If need be,
shoot our way clear to both.
What matter a few lives here and
there? II brave men like Lawton fall with
their faces to the enemy. what is easier
with tie crime Of it all, and just go on
placidly with the process of, as Senator
Nelson calls it. "civilizing them?" Let
us, if need be, change the entire mission
OF American free institutions, rather
than abandon" those who, while they
have bespoken our aid and sustainment,
have refused to accept the 'civilizing''
agencies which have been established in
their country by the Mckinley Hanna
administration under the overseership Of
Gen. Otis.
Men learn as they grow old in states
manship. Evidently Senator Nelson is
no exception. He has learned much since
the days when he rose in revolt in the
house of representatives against Repub-
Hcan paternalism and cast his vote for
the Mills tariff bill. He has learned, per
haps. among other things, that the carry
ing commerce Of his native Norway,
which he descanted on on the memorable
occasion, might have become more ex-
tersive had 1t been duly backed by the
spiritual influence or military gov
ernor and his field artillery. He sees
other nations extending their territorial
sway and preparing for the extension Of
their foreign commerce with the aid Of
that notable Scandinavian spiritual In
vention, the Krag- Jorgensen rifle, and
he doubtless reflects that had his fore
fathers had the advantage of such civil
izing agencies they might today be forg-
ing ahead beside their German kinsmen
in the march Of commercial supremacy.
But Senator Nelson and his political
friends will go on with their work of civ
ilization. Despite the accepted wicked
ness Of his and their political opponents,
however, it is safe prediction to offer
to the senator, that they will be made
to see the advisability ere long of adopt
ing less radical methods If their labors
in the cause OF civilization and trade
are not to be brought to summary end
ing.

er1AY NEED NOT WORRY.

There is deeper interest being mani
tested in the outcome Of the proceedings
in the United States senate regarding Mr..
Quay's right to the seat to which he was
appointed by his political subordinate,
the governor of Pennsylvania, than APP
pears on the surface of things. Indeed, 1t
is not too much to say that political So
ciety throughout the country is watching
with much conern to see whether man
so high in the councils of the administra-
ton of the good Mckinley can In any pos
sibe contingency be treated as if he were
no more than Democratic Mormon from
the state of Utah.
There was a president once who set
himself up against the talent" in his
party He did not serve a second term.
1t Is generally recognized now that, al
though that president, whose name, by
the way, was Harrison, secured a re-
nomination by paying the full price which
Republican delegates from the Southern
states always exact, talented gentlemen
and statesmen like Quay, Plat and
others ruthlessly left him to his fate
after he had succeeded in comprising his
denomination without their aid, nay, in
spite of them
If there is destined to be another presi-
dent of this variety, his name will not be
Mckinley. The president we now have Of
that name is altogether too appreciative
attitude toward great men like Quay.
Quay is the state Of Pennsylvania, and

hardly be said to be second in Importance

When the tossing of w. H Houlton
from the SUPPLEMENTARY of the ST. Cloud
reformatory comes, and it Is scheduled
to occur shortly, 1T Is probable that the
nominee for the place will be a man en-
tirely unassociated with Saltwater and
st. Cloud affairs in the past, and possibly
a Democrat, although this, 1t seems, is
not so essential as to have some one
who has not been identified with the old
crowd, as has F. A. Whittier, the state
for the place nipped in the bud. Why
Whittier has ever been considered in con-
nection with the place even by Repub-
licans has never been made clear.
Chief Grain Inspector Reishus stated
yesterday that he had arrived at no de-
cislon in the matter of choosing a sue
cessor to Chief Clerk Sullivan, of the

is a Republican, has been slated to go
for some time, and, pending the action of
his chief, has continued to fill the duties
Of his Office. OF the several candidates
for the post, NJ 8. lamar, a Democratic
resident Of the Eleventh ward, is sup
posed to be slated for the place, having
received the Endorsement of the admins

that he would be appointed, Mr.. Reishus

candidate for speaker. Representative
Wise, of Blackhawk county. another
doubtful man. has announced that he is

Scott. Of Ida-Mona, another heretofore
doubtful factor. also announces himself
for Eaton The Gear people announce
that they have secured a pledge from d.
j. Patton, of Franklin county, that he
will support Bowen and Gear. The Cum
minis men claim to have made serious in
roads on the Gear column of supposed
sure votes. but this Is as vigorously de-
MED by the Gear supporters, who say
they have lost nothing they expected.
