Liberties Under the Law.

In view of the recent performances of
A%guinaldo in cutting off the head of one
of his generals who wished merely to
advise him that he was running his
neck into a moose, and the manifold de-
ceptions he has been practicing Upon
his deluded followers in order to keep
up the fight, it will not be in order any
more for Senator Hoar, of Massachu-
sets, and misguided patriots scattered
elsewhere through this country to COM
pare the insurgent chief with George
Washington, or to crate about the no
bility of fighting for liberty, as illus
trated by the Philippine islanders. I'M
agine Washington cutting off the head
of Generals Greene, Lincoln or Gates
for merely offering their opinion as to
the advisability of certain military pol
icies. Aguinaldo warns his followers
that their lives, and the lives of their
families and the preservation of their
property depends upon their driving the
Americans out of the Philippines and
putting him into the dictatorship; while
at the very same time Colonel Smith, of
the California volunteers, with a staff
of officers and a native committee of
conference are at Negroes drafting a
constitution which shall guarantee the
greatest liberty possible to the natives,
provide for the maintenance of a stable
form of government and the establish
ment of the American public school sys-
TEN in the island. When Senator Hoar
really grasps the situation he will feel
like hiding his head in the grass of OBJ
livion for years to come. A Philippine
commissioner sized up the situation
| when he said that after the object les
| son being now administered by the
American troops, the Luzon island ma
tives would be in a condition of mind
to listen to the American plan to give
them what they have so long been de-
string. viz. liberty: but liberty under
the law.

Dissatisfaction and Disappointment.

In reading the Democratic papers of
the country it becomes more apparent
every day that there is much dissatis-
faction and disappointment in the ranks
of that party over the way things are
going in the country. And we'll there
may be.
In the campaign of 1896 the spell
binders and papers Of the Democratic
party declared emphatically that unless
free silver became the financial policy
of the country ruin and starvation
would result just so sure as the sun
would rise on the morning after cleo
ton. The in which that predic-
ton has been fulfilled has been a source
of irritation and despair to the Demo-
Gratis. Since the 4th of March, 1897, the
country never knew such commercial
prosperity nor such faith in the circu-
lating medium of the United States.
Sound money and protection have
brought an era of unprecedented pros
kets of the world" have been captured
| by the American manufacturer and
farmer, wage of all classes of me-
| chanics and laboring men have been adj
| are willing to work, and the improve
ment of conditions industrially over
that which obtained during the last
Democratic administration is so marked
&c 70 proa115a onv comma riSOn.
At the close of the war with Spain the
Democratic leaders made a desperate
attempt to create political capital out
of the conduct of that struggle, but the
people generally turned from such un-
patriotic politics with disgust. The next
move made by the free traders for the
purpose of gaining strength for the par
| ty and votes for coming candidates on
the Democratic ticket was to organize
| an anti-expansion league, thinking that
there were enough peace-at-any-price
| people in the country to join such an or
| ganization, which would soon grow to
| a formidable size and give them some
| little prestige as the ~"saviors of the
country In this dodge failure again
resulted. The great majority Of the
Americans are heartily in favor of TAX
ing up the white mans burden and
carrying civilization, education and t
BILE government into the Philippine is
lands and Puerto Rico, and if neces-
sary into Cuba. Thus he anti-every-
thing-American wing of the Democrat
/ ic party was compelled to see honor re-
iected upon the Republican admins
t%ration, while nothing but ridicule was
given to those who endeavored to stay
the destiny of the republic.
Free trade, the pet doctrine and
standby issue of the Democrats, has
been 50 emphatically repudiated by the
people of the country that it is hardly
possible that another campaign will be
made on that issue, and just what to do
in order to enlist the sympathies of the
voters is what is bothering the leaders
of the party of retrogression and for
eign sympathies.
In view of these ~discouraging facts, is
it any wonder that Democracy is dis
couraged and the outlook is gloomy for
the election in 1900? The funny part of
the matter is that the people in all
walks of life in the United States care
mighty little what becomes of the Dem
ocrats as a party.

1t is interesting tt follow the weekly
bulletin in the Railway Age of the or
ders that keep pouring into the car and
locomotive manufacturers establish
ments for new rolling stock and motive
power. There is a long list of new pas
senger, freight and coal cars to be built
at the earliest date possible, and anoth-
err list Of locomotives that a number of
roads are anxious to secure without de-
lay, because of the increasing demands
of public traffic. Here is the Schenecta-
dy works building eight consolidation
engines for the Paris & Orleans railway
of France: also, three large switching
engines for the Texas Central. The
Rogers locomotive works have received
an order for two freight 10-wheelers
from the Texas & Pacific. The Pitts
burg works have received an order for
two engines from a Maine road; while
the Baldwin works at Philadelphia con-
tinue to gather in the lions share of the
trade. This latter establishment has
just received orders for two engines
from the New York, Philadelphia &
Norfolk line. 20 more locomotives for
the Midland railway of England, maxi
ing the total order 80; and 10 consolida-
ton engines from the Norfolk & West
ern. All the car and engine shops in the
country are head over ears in business,
and the larger companies are getting
more and more to building locomotives
for themselves, and only partly depend
ing on the regular manufacturers.

That vas a great feat of the colonel
of the Goth Kansas regiment, who, with
20 of his men, swan a Luzon river
and captured so armed Filipinos. 1t
ought to secure a brigadiership for
Colonel Funston, by brevet, if not by
actual command. The officers of the
American troops have been showing
that there is genuine metal in them, and
that they are not afraid to lead their
men into action and to take the same
risks as the enlisted men. The 22d in
fantry lost it's colonel before the Span
ish trenches in Cuba, and has now lost
another commanding officer before the
Filipino trenches near Manila. Both

ulation is to-day the same as it was in
the United States in 1850, for there arc
only three cities in the territory having
5000 or more. In the natural course of
events, therefore, the territory will in
the next 30 years witness the founding
of many towns and the rapid growth of
the progressive among the older cities.
Whether Santa Fee is to be among that
number depends upon the enterprise
and the energy of her citizens and the
progressivenes of her city government.
This is an suspicious time for reorgan-
izing the board of trade and making ii
such a body or commercial club whose
sole aim would be to make Santa Fe

Must Return to Work.

A great portion of the people of Cuba
are delighted with the supervision and
care that Uncle Sam is giving them.
They would far rather live on the chart
ty rations they are now receiving from
the military authorities than be digging
for a living. There is some ground,
therefore, for the complaint of Havana
merchants hat the United States is
running their business by giving away
or selling cheaper thar cost the supplies
which the Cubans formerly had to buy
at market prices. There is no reason,
however, for the following howl Of Ell
Correa Espanol, published in the City
of Mexico:
"Civilization has disappeared from
Cuba with the disappearance of the
Spanish flag. No spectacle could be
more repulsive. The American soldiers
have converted the beautiful park there
into a camp. There they eat and drink,
and there they wallow freely like hogs
in the creek on a summer day. Oh! what
a sad page to the history of the human
race is the United States in Cuba and
the Philippines! What a step backward
in the path of civilization has been
taken by North America in letting loose
it's immoral and cynical soldiery on
those unhappy Countries"
The effusion certainly is ludicrous and
preposterous. Nevertheless, Uncle Sam
should stop the charity business in Gu
ba unless where sickness prevents the
men from work. For every ration dis
pensed to the Cubans an equivalent in
work should be demanded. The Cubans
unable to find work on farms or in the
cities should be put to constructing
roads or to building sewers. The United
States does not intend to make Cuba an
immense almshouse or charity institu-
ton. There, as elsewhere, the principle
of root hog or die" will have to be
applied to make the people self-reliant
and fit for self-government.

In order to make political capital, a
few op-Democratic papers in the ter
ritory have set up a how that the 33d
legislative assembly has done nothing
for the common schools of the terri
tory, but has only aided the higher edu-
cational institutions in order to help
favorite professors. This statement is
false and is contradicted by the record.
The territorial tax levy for the common
schools was not cut down from former
years; fines, forfeited bonds, etc,
go into the school fund, so do liquor
and gambling licenses, and the 33d as
sembly enacted that one-half of the de-
linquent taxes for 1896 and 1897, and
they will amount to a large sum, shall
go into the school fund of each county.
Vicious Ignorance and ignorant vicious
ness are the basis of these attacks.
They will fall harmless, however, as the
charge is so easily disproved.

Colorado pays it's state officials 1925,
700 annually for salaries. This does not
seem to be exorbitant or extravagant
on the part of so rich and populous a
state, yet the legislature in session al
Denver is considering a to re-
duce the salary list by $50, 900. While
it is often necessary to check official
extravaganza, there is frequently a
movement toward the opposite extreme
by legislators, whose chief aim is tc
curry public favor even at the expense
of the public good. Niggardliness in
public affairs is a greater evil than ex.
travagance, for extravaganza can be
readily checked at any time, and has nc
after effects upon the welfare of the
public, but false economy may otter
throw back a state or municipality fol
so many years that it will not recover
from it's effects for a century or more.

The building of railroads in the Chi
nese empire is bound to effect a revolu-
ton in that hitherto UNEMPLOYED coun-
try. The new railroads will not be built
with a view to turning aside for every
graveyard, of which there are countless
numbers in China, and the overthrow of
the superstition which had hitherto pre-
vented railroad building because of the
innumerable graveyards encountered,
but will open a way for the wiping out
of other equally absurd beliefs. There
is no doubt but hat the vast empire is
undergoing disintegration.
