M'KINLEY AND THE SECOND TERM

MA1NLE1 AND The SksCOND TERM.
AS result Of canvass of the
Fifty-fifth congress it was ascertained
that about so per cent Of the sena-
tors and representatives, upon beng
asked who would be the next Repub-
lican nominee for president. declared
uncOnditiOnally that President Nc
kinlcy would be the man, provided
he desired second term. While
such canvass is, of course, not COLI
elusive, it is at least significant, for it
voices the sentiment of every state in
the Union, and the mediums of ex-
preston are among the men best in
formed upon political tendencies and
cxpedicncies.
There is certainly nothing surpris-
ing in this almost unanimous declara-
tion in favor of President Mckinley.
IT there eyer Lave been good reasons
for giving chief executive more
than one tel m, there are surely such
reasons for hoping that the preseu.
occupant Of the presidential chair
may not be displaced by the
action of the next Republican
convention, and as for Republican
success at the polls, that seems to be
a foregone conclusion, whether the
nominee be MI. Mckinley or some
other strong Republican.
The success of the Mckinley ad-
ministration is astonishing when the
conditions of the country a, the tine
of his election are taken into con-
sideration. The revival of industry,
the unprecedented activity i'll all lines
Of enterprise, the unparalleled volume
of exports, the strong markets and
the prosperity Of all classes stani as
a monument to the statesmanship Of
the Ohio statesman, and his advisers.
No matter what allowances may he
made for natural tendencies, there
must remain great credit for the man
who has stood at the head of the ma
ton, and who has, SO far as his autlIo-
rity has permitted, directed affairs.
1t is especially creditable to Presi-
dent Mckinley that the advent and
not retarded domestic prosperity in
the least. 1t is true that in his recon-
incndations and in his acts the presi-
dent has generally been sustained
most heartily by congress, but this
ready cooperation on the part of the
national legislature is but another in
dication of the confidence inspired
by the executive. Congress did not
do all that the president desired, but
.h"sc things that have been left for
future consideration have been, with
few exceptions, subjects that may
safely be deferred for a time. The
broad and liberal views Of the presi-
Notwithstanding those that have al
ready been made effective and those
that will doubtless be indorsed by the
next cOngress-wiHa':s have the
strongest possible sanction of history.
A double term is not too long for
such president, and if Mr.. Mckin-
ley is. not tired 0: public life when
the next Republican convention
meets, he will certainly be ,thc noml-
nee.-K G.. journal.

For the United States to retire
from the Philippines Is now impos-
sible. AM token of weakening
there would be felt ut once in T., ba
and Porto Rico. 4 Eo influence of The
situation at Manila on that in Cuba
must not be- overlooked. To faltcr
in the Philippines might neccssilatc
another campaign in Cuba, and it
would probably tend to produce dis
order in Porto Rico. The United
States cannot tolerate native anarchy
in Cuba any more than il could en-
dure the effect of Spanish misrule.
The CubaDs are watching the con-
fiict in the Pacific with as much i'll
terest as the people of the United
States. There is only one course to
pursue in the Philippines, anu that is
to prove 10 the world and to the
Cub.ns and the Porto Ricans-and
to the FilipinOs, first-the power of
the United States, and, second, to de-
monstrate the desire Of the govern
ment at Washington to be just and
magnanimous. ':he FilipinOs in re-
volt must be dealt with in such n
manner that, when conquered, they
will be compelled TO say: "What fools
we were to fight our dcliverers;;" that
in years TO come, they will speak Of
the present conflict with regret and
shame. TO let 60 in the Philippines
now would be to lose all the prestige
gained in the Spanish war, and it
would defeat the prime and central
object of expansion-the establish
ment of righteous government aud
spread of republican institutions
among a people who have been handi-
capped for centuries by Spanish mis-
rule.
