THE people could be depended on to
elec5 Senator on schedule time just
as they do other officials and there
would be no deadlocks and no pro-
longed Senatorial campaigns in Legis-
latures. In this respect the election of
Senators by popular vote would GER
tainly be preferable to the present
mode of electing them. But it is ques-
tionable if there would be any other
gain, and, therefore, the advisability of
changing system that has been sane
toned by the practice of long period
of time will always be questioned. The
men elected by popular vote do not
average any better, if they average as
we'll as Senators. A glance at our
Congressman, Governors, Mayors and
other high officials elected by popular
vote makes this fact evident. MilWau-
kee Sentinel.

THERE seems to be no grounds left
for the hope cherished by some that
Aguinaldo would finally manifest a suf-
fcient degree of good sense to use his
influence towards peaceful settlement
with America. Indeed, he seems to
have inherited, or, otherwise come by,
the same poverty of common sense
which characterized his former master,
Spain. There is no doubt that our
administration will use the same peace
seeking policies which were followed
previous to the war with Spain. Every
effort will be made to conclude the
controversy with the FilipinOs without
the use of force, but there is strong
probability that such contamination
will not be possible. In that case ii
will be the duty of the United States tC
resort to energetic, decisive action of g
nature calculated to not merely accom-
plish the present purpose but to teach
the insurgents lesson which they will
be likely to remember, and will aver
trouble in the future.
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1899-01-12

SINCE Spain and Spaniards comprise
as much of the world as the Filipinos
have enjoyed thelacquaintance of it is
not surprising that they are acting
foolish in the present emergency. But
they will learn by experience that
Spain and the United States are quite
different, and that the latter cannot be
trifed with with impunity, while, if left
alone it will do better for the Philip.
ippines than they themselves could
hope to do.

CARL SCHURZ in his speech az the
convocation of the University OF Chi
cago said, e" Aa to the independent
republics of Porto Rico and Cuba, Oul
government might extend it's good off
ces to unite them with San Domingo and
Hayti in a confederacy of the Antilles,
to give them a more respectable inter
national standing" Has the govern
ment in San Domingo and Hayti proved
so successful that our government
should use it's efforts to unite anything
with it? For our part we should not
be inclined to unite a yellow dog with
San Domingo and Hayti.
