on the brain of the czar will be a bs o.

intolerable headaches from which he

REED ON THE PHILIPPINES!
The Gar From Maine Says the People Will
Very Soon Tire Of McKinley's Present
Policy:-What He Thinks.

Portland, Me-, Sept. l6.-In a railroad coach Thomas B.
Reed took part in a discussion with two Portland men and
plainly expressed his sentiments in regard to the war in the
Philippines. One of the friends with him, who is a radical
expansionist, remarked that to withdraw our troops from the
Philippines now would humiliate our nation before the world.
Mr.. Reeds reply came promptly:
you don't think those Fiipinos would chase our soldiers
! 900 miles if they should start for home, do vou?'
The Portland man replied that it was not the fear Of the
Filipinos, but humiliation in the sight of the other nations
that was referred to, whereupon Mr.. Reed replied:
II have always observed that with individuals the fear of
humiliation is exactly in proportion as they deserve it, and |
believe the same principle holds good with a nation and with a
political party. Some people seem to be afraid that these
Fiipinos will put their tongues in their checks at us. They
have done that already. They have watched our failures as
others have. don't know how long it will be before the
American people get tired of spending $50, OOO,O 900 a year tc
conquer those people, but it doesn' seem to me it will be very
long. | can conceive that freedom. is Just as dear to them as
it is to us, and they will fight for it just as long,

One Of the amusing features Of tins judicial
campaign is the endorsement 81 Edmund
Smith OF Rapid City for a jadse OF the SUI
preme court If the state OF South Dakota.
Mr.. Smith is an attorney at law in Rapid-at
least he runs a business card in a pop newspa
FER down tha- way to that etiect-but his
know ledge Of fundamental law is about as alb
sent as his good looks. -Sturgis Record.
This reminds us of the "argu-
ment' put up by the Sulu press
when Judge Levi MCGEE ran for
judge in this circuit. But Niece
was elected just the same and to
day not even his bitterest oppon-
ents dare question his legal ability
or his absolute and unqualified
fairness. The same can be said Of
Hon. Edmund Smith. While he
has never been the paid attorney
OF a moneyed corporation, there
are none among those who know
him who question his legal ability,
his strict integrity, his absolute
fairness and his honesty as a
citizen. lie is strictly a man Of
the people--a man amply qualified
for the position to which he as
pres. Our present partisan SUI
preme court might part with a
share Of its good looks" in ex.
change for a policy Of impartiality
would appreciate it.

When war astride OF the land and sea
Poured wrath from his trimming cup,
When brave men died and left in bequest

Then will it fall! But answer us clear,
Do you fancy that hour is drawing near!
Did our liberty bell ring in vain?
Was our Declaration a LIEF
Must we turn to the old world again

Must we arm us and march in the van

COST OF "MORAL EFFECT"
Expense to the Taxpayers Is SIS ,OOO,-

to the taxpayer Is $5,OOO,-
o n Month In Luzon Alone.
Some sort of an excuse had to be
made for sending $4,000 men to the
Philippines after Otis had said there
We're only a few small rowing bands of
rebels left. and now the excuse is
made. 1t is the moral effect such a
large army will have upon the rowing
bands and other inhabitants that the
president is working for. 1t is interest
ing to note, too, how the moral eff
feet is to be dosed out. 1t is estimat-
ed that . 1900 soldiers In the field will
be able to chase rowing bands from
town to town until they have 10 more
towns to be chased out of. Meanwhile
the remaining 10000 troops will follow
the chasing divisions and garrison the
towns and cities as fast as the rebels
vacate them. 1t is these 10000 men
divided ur into squads and garrisoning
the so or more principal trade centers
Of Luzon that are to create the moral
effect"
1t would seem that Aguinaldo has
not been consulted by the Washington
government but 1t Will not matter
much what he thinks or does If the
5000, 900 inhabitants Of Luzon throw
up the sponge when they are confronted
by the moral effect" But there are
l,4OO other islands that have to be
dosed with the same moral effect"
and the people of three Of the more i'm
portant ones are building forts and
Notifications and otherwise preparing
to take up the business where Luzsn
leaves off. The expense to the taxpay'
ers of the United States for maintain
ing the moral effect" in Luzon alone
will be over $1,000, 900 a month, not
counting the cost of maintaining the
$4,000 soldiers in the field to scatter

still got it. The investment was
the work of republican "business'
administration. The treaty is "the
law of the land.' We have several
very bad laws in this country.
o-Is President Mckinley bound to main
the sovereignty in our hands until otherwise
directed by laws Of congress?
Yes, he ought to SO far as the
harbor and city Of Manila is con
cerned, until congress shall have
disposed of the matter. Had our
occupation been thus confined and
the natives treated with fairness
and Justice there would never have
been a hostile shot exchanged be-
tween the natives and Americans.
Mckinley has no authority for car
rying on the present war of con-
quest in the island.
1o-Can any power but congress acting by
law make the Philippines a colony of the
United States?
Not legally, but like carrying on
the wal without any authority, Nc
kinley is liable to do a good many
things illegally. And then, he no
doubt anticipates the action of his
republican hackers in congress.
1I-Has any power but congress the right
No. No one has asked that our
"soverignty" in the Philippines be
surrendered. What the people OBJ
iect to is this high priced policy
OF '.beuevolent assimilation,' "for-
chile annexation and terminal
aggression without the authority
of the properly constituted powers.
Our "soverignty' there at present
is on paper and would be a diff
cult thing to "surrender.'
12.-Has President Mckinley any right to
~torestall the action of congress IN eith.r di,
~recticn toward making the Philippines a col
ony or surrendering them SO that they cannot
be made a colony If congress SO decides?
No, but he has been carrying on
this war of conquest without con
gressional authority. You may
call it "forestalling the action o
congress" or anything that suits
your fancy, but it's a fact. Before
sacrificing lives and millions O
money in such a move he nigh
have given the Filipinos some as
%surance of our intentions toward
them. This is all thew asked a
, that time and they were jus thy en-
titled to it.
I3-Do you think the United States shoul
do anything to prevent the partition Of Chin
: among the continental! powers Of Europe?
Not unless American interest
. suffer. 1t is always wi duty tt
protect our interests in all quarter
Of the world and under all circum
stances. The ACKNOWLEDGMENT O

ropean expansion. You say ex
