Never Mind the Theorists.

There are some people in the United
States whose ideas of liberty and inde-
pendence are so exalted and super-re-
fined that they imagine that all nations,
tribes and peoples of the earth cry FOR
it. as babies are advertised to cry for
soothing syrup; and that when any peo-
pie, no matter who, take 1T into thelr
heads that they want independence, the
mere conception Of the idea carries with
it influences so ennobling that the low
est savage at once becomes a civilized
being, capable of thinking, acting, gov
erning wisely and well-yea, he may
presently become sufficiently enlight-
ened to pose as a pillar in the Concord
school of philosophy, or to represent the
righteous commonwealth of Massachu-
sets in the congress of the United
States. These over-sanguine admirers
of civil and religious liberty assume as
a general automatic truth that people
are by nature competent for self-gov-
eminent without any previous training
or education whatever. Therefore, the
spectacle of any aggregation of individ-
uals ~contending for the right to govern
themselves presents such an altogether
glorious spectacle that such things as,
who these people may be, what are theiI
qualifications for self-government,
whether they are competent to main
tain law and order, protect property,
and able to maintain the obligations in
cumbent upon an Independent nation,
are entirely overlooked, and the claim
is advanced, Give them their liberty
and everything will come out all right
somehow.
Such unsubstantial and impractical a
view. has been advanced by 80 highly re-
spectacle American theorists, Of whom
IL are from New England. These emf
nent specialists in misapplied science
demand an immediate cessation of hos
tilities in the Philippines, and a confer
ence with the native leaders with a
view to preventing further bloodshed
upon the basis of recognition of theii
freedom and independence as soon as d
guarantee can be had of order and pro-
lection to property. The resolution fur

When President Mckinley appointed

When President Mckinley appointed
j. X. Gowdy, of Indiana, consul gener-
al at Paris, there vas a general smoker
among Democrats. Gowdy was consid-
cred a g%uileless Hoosier farmer, who
dressed in high-water pants and be-
haved like a gawk, and whom the Pari-
slams would laugh at as a country jay.
But Gowdy has turned out to be the
most popular and the most accom-
plished consul the United States ever
had at Paris. The American farmer has
been tried at every post, from road su-
pervisor to president, and he has al

The free traders are arranging to hold
a meeting in Washington for the pur-
pose of a%rraigning the Dingley tariff
law. Such a gathering is entirely I'M
necessary. The allies of the free trad
ers, the importers of foreign made
goods, in sulphurous terms arraign the
law every day, but that is all it
amounts to. Under the Dingley tariff
the trade of the country continues to
expand, prosperity has invaded every
section of the country and the people do
not care a continental red cent how
much arraigning the Cobdenites do.

The raising of sugar beets and the
manufacture of sugar from them en-
ploys thousands of persons in Germany,
and is a source of great profit to those
who have invested their money in the
industry. An enormous amount of that
beet sugar is imported to the United
States. The German manufacturer
pays the freight, the profit to the i'm
porter, the salvage and waste, and yet
can afford to sell his beet sugar on
American markets as cheap as the SUI
gar produced in this country. Many Sec
tons of New Mexico are better adapted
to the sugar beet industry than the
most favored parts of Germany, and
sugar could be produced cheaper in this
territory than anywhere else in the
world. With so much capital seeking
investment there should be little diff
Guilty in establishing the beet sugar in
dustry on a large scale in this territory.

States land and naval forces after or
ganization of a stable local government.
Local self-government and the organi-
cation of a stable government are
among the objects TO- being sought
for by the administration as what is
being done on other islands is manifest.
1t has been and is the intention to do
the same on Luzon island, and the plan
would have been successful but for the
ignorant arrogance of the dictator
Aguinaldo, that prince of liars who is
driving thousands of his deluded fol-
lowers to their death in the most vain
hope of driving foreigners from the is
land and establishing himself as per-
manent dictator therein.
The first thing to do in the way Of
regulating the affairs of the islands is
to wipe out this rebellion against the
only constituted authority in the is
local government as automatic as the
intellectual status of those ignorant
people will admit of; for they are no
more fit now to govern themselves than
I We're the Fiji islanders when discovered
by the English; and from the attitude

! ment, and it was an unrighteous shame
| for a civilized race to conquer them and
| give them a civilized government. Per-
| haps such people are capable of self
| government-on a Boston basis. The
| administration takes the correct view
of the situation, and will not be de-
tered from carrying out it's policy be-
cause of protests from visionary and
impracticable theorists.

General Shafter, General Wheeler,
and a number of other warriors, are
still fighting the Cuban campaign in
the columns of magazines and news
papers. None of those men can add an
iota to the glory they have achieved
and a long-suffering public will get
tired of as great a topic as the glorious
Cuban campaign if each detail is
chewed over and over again and the
leaders fight like small school boys for
the credit of which there is sufficient tC

The human stomach is the source of
more illness than any other organ of
the body. 1t is with considerable relief,
therefore, hat the sufferer from stom-
ach ills will hear hat within the past
few months four physicians in this
country have succeeded in removing the
stomach from four patients. Only one
of the patients died, and the other three
have recovered and are living comfort
ably without the unruly food absorber
called the stomach. The day is evident
ly at hand that the habitual topper, aft
er Il prolonged spree, will be able to re-
move his stomach, clean it and hang 1t
oven the fence to dry over night, and
thus avoid the "Katzenjammer' that
generally follows a debauch.

The number of families in the United
States having princely Incomes is not
as large as is generally supposed. Not
quite 5 per cent of families in this coun-
try have an income of $4,000 or more a
year; the others, more than 50 pei cent,
manage to worry along on less than
$4,000 a year One family out or every
three has an income Of less than $7.5O
a week; one in every five earns $S to
So a week. These two classes comprise
more than half the population of the
United States. There are 4047 incomes,
or one in every 5000, that amount to
$50, 900. The most important economical
question in the United States, therefore,
still is, How to support a family on
$40 or less a week."

John N. Cuffin. United States consul
at Ascension, Paraguay, in his last con-
sular report invites American capital to
invest in Paraguay. He gives a list of
opportunities for profitable investment
The New Mexican, after scanning over
the list, finds that New Mexico offers
a ten times better field for the invest
ment of capital than does Paraguay.
This territory can absorb millions of
dollars of capital, and will pay a hand
some dividend on every cent of it.
