Concealed Weapons.

We take the following from Il
ringing editorial in the Bristol
News of July the 10th. Barring
the harShncss of several express.
sons in the article, which could
have been easily substituted, we
say amen to the sentiments ex-
pressed in this extract:
ave have said that public opin-
ION is the real king in IL free coun-
try, We repeat it. The practice
of carrying concealed weapons is a
most responsible one. We have
laws against it-particularly in
Tennessee But the law is eluded
or eyadcd. Whys Oh! says the
Offender, 81 am IL gentlemen, and
carry concealed arms in order TO de-
fend myself" Well, our opinion,
OF yen sir, and that OF every other
right minded person is, that tile.
chanc. are il hundred to one that
you "pisiol toter" are either, IL silly
fool, an arrdnt coward or II blood;
minded desperate. The chances
OF You being II true gentlemen are
not one in hundred. You may
wear good clothes and try to pass
AS gentlemen, bnt the fact is Won
contemplate murder or you are IL
staggering coward. There are
exec tional cases. For example,
when fellows like you, and Mho
also drink whiskey, threaten a
brave mans life then he is justified
in arming himself, and when one
of your illi attemps either To bluff,
or bully or TO shoot, then he in The
eye of reason, las a no 'igrt to
Shoe: you before You g,.i illr drop
on him. But even this large and
liberal exception does not excuse
any one not actually in specific
and special danger from the charge
OF criminal wickedness or arrant
cowardice who in this land nn.,
time goes about armed like Lar
bay pirate.

imperialism.

We have said little of late about
our adventure in the extreme east.
We would willingly try to forget all
about it but the incidents of our in.
vasion of the Filipino territory are so
deplorable that the subject cannot
be put aside. Some hundreds of our
soldiers are dead in All ignoble strug.
Gle while the number disabled by
wounds and disease runs into the
thousands. Mure thousands still of
tho f'ilipinos have been killed and
disabled. And after all we do not
possess the islands. A little stretch
of territory near Manila and tho port
of Iloilo arc all that the Stars and
Stripes float over. If we held all the
islands no good would come to us ms
q nation. A few of our people
would get rich in Philippine com
merce and in local explorations of u
more or less demoralizing sort. Our
population, however would be taxed
more highly in order to meet heavy
expenditures in the Philippines from
which they can derive no apprecia.
Ole benefit. 1t is n queer duty"
which makes 1T necessary for Ameri.
cans WHO believe in self rule-"ihut
all governments derive their just
powers from the consent of the GOV.
crned'-to kill Filipinos because they
want to 1--we under government Of
their own. 1t is an extraordinary
destiny for the American people
to give up and belle principles to
which they have adhered passionate
ly in the past in order to enter upon
Il career of land'grabbing aud con
quest. At every stage in tho prog
ress of Imperialism it becomes more
and more difficult for the country to
escape from its illogical, not to say
wicked work there. Patriotism of
high order backed by craftsmanship
of II high order will be needed to re-
trieve the evils of the situation.
There is only one end possible, how.
ever-the absolute aud unconditional
withdrawal from all of the PnlliJ
pines saving perhaps two on three
ports. Americans know that the Fill

The Laundry and the Ditch.

INC LuuUUIy anu tHG DtCH.
We have had II good deal to say
through this paper, and some things
outside the paper, about the obiec.
iiunablc and unfortunate ditch on
farewell Avenue. In urging that
something Shonld he done we have
noI spoken from selfish stand
point alone, but in the interest of
quite Il large number of citizens,
who live in that vicinity, and the
health of whose families. and the
value and comfort Of whose homes
may he seriously effected. The
problem Of the ditch at this time
becomes more difficult. We under
stand that the laundry being built
II the head OF Tazcwcl Avenue
will use this ditch us II drain. All
the water from this laundry will be
empticd there, so we arc informed.
Now, there is scrions objection to
This. The small amount Of water
which naturally and mavoi'lably
drains into this ditch has been. and
might continue to be tolerated, but
when 1t comes TO using this ditch
as Il sewer for nj the filthy water,
SOAP SudS, etc. from Il steam laun.
DIR. then we draw the line sharp.
We don't know whether or not any
IL tion has been taken on the part
oi he Council touching tins par.
tlcnlar case. NJ publication OF
such an order has been made. so
FAR as we know, except that it has
been generally understood that
the law of the town forbids throw.
ing waste wa'er on the street, and
the mayor will enforce this order.
But the question comes, what will
the laundry people do with their
waste water? We believe the
Council will some day provide
sewerage. The money to do this
work is not available, we suppose.
a good drain pipe in the ditch is
needed for the purpose of carrying
OIL the rain water that drains from
the hillside, if for no other reason.
And then waste water thrown in
back'yards and on lots is as much
nuisance and an evil as if thrown
In the ditch. 1t also is Il fact that
every encouragement possible
should be given the projectors of
new enterprises in the town, and
make it az easy and inexpensive
as possible for them to carry on
their business.
