Republican newspapers are diligent-
~ engaged incorporating the posi-
tion taken by william J. Bryan on the
Philippines question. They assert that
bryan advocates = cowardly course
and the immediate withdrawal OF
American troops In ioiAer that the
people may know just what Mr.. Bryan
thinks about this matter the following
extract u made from . speech deliv-
cred by him Al Des Moines recently;
Among other things, Mr. Bryan said:
81 do not favor the withdrawal OF
our troops. What l do believe. and
what have repeatedly answered 20
my belief. Is that we should At once
declare our purpose Ia unequlvocal
terms 80 positive that the Filipinos
cannot doubt ito grant them full
aud complete independents the very
me.aent they have established = stable
government.
~ believe that II we should make
aach 90 announcement right now the
wer would cease In shGf, time, and
our troops could withdraw without
laying down their arms "a the face OF
the enemy"
This puts quite difterent phase on
the matter. The condition OF Affairs
In Cuba proves that Bryan is right in
his suggestion. aud that instead Of adj.
voeatlng a cowardly course, he makes a
proposition, which appeals entirely 10
logic. justice and wisdom.
Senator HoAr agrees with Mr.. Bryan
aud asserts that by purauiug the same
course Ia the philippines as that pur-
sued 10 Cuba this coVntry would have
avoided war In An interview Mr.
HoAr said by pursuing such a
course. instead OF lasting enmity we
should have the undyiDg gratitude Of
that people. We should have tad
everything we could ask or wish Ia
the way OF trade advantage there.
They would have taken our advice In
the framing OF their institutions We
should have sent our scholars aud
teachers To instruct them In good gov
crnment aud the ways Of civilization.
A. We aid TO Japan We should have
kept other nations from interfering
with them. We should have aided
them In keeE:ng order and there
would have been q nation ia the east
differing from Japan Ia the fact that
IL would have beea repnblic, and we
should have had the glory forever OF
having been their lsbera,ors and bene-
factors"
Ia Il not about time for the Republi-
can press 90 show littls honesty In
its treatment of Bryaa Let them
quote him fairly. Ills friends are quite
willing 90 have bis statements given
the widest publicity, bat they object
90 lies and distortions.

INGLESIDE RACES
WILL BE RAlDED

San Francisco, March 15.-Chief of
Police Lees declares that he will continue
to make daily raids at the Ingleside race
track until betting on the events is
stopped. He says:
"The supervisors have passed an ordi-
nance declaring that betting on horse
races and coursing events must stop, and
the new law will be rigidly enforced
The cases of the bOokmakers and others
already under arrest will be fought Wig
OrOusly in the courts, according to state
ments made by Ed Corcoran and his as
sOciateS in the management of the track.
In the meantime, it is proposed to ignore
the ordinance, if possible, notwithstand-
ing the uncomprOmising attitude Of the
authorities. Several Of the downtown
pool rooms have been closed and the
police promise to raid others.

ENGLISH BLUE
BOOK ON CHINA

London, March 16.-The eagerly antici-
pated China bluebook has been issued,
but all the main points in dispatches fill
ing $50 pages, covering the period from
1s9S to 1899, were already known to the
public. The bluebook deals at length
with all the territorial railway and min
ing concessions of all countries, COM
mencing with the cession of Port Ar
thur and closing with the opening of Nan
King as a treaty port. Much space is de-
voted to the question of the foreign con-
cession at Shanghai, the exhibits includ-
ing the protests of American ministers
and consuls against the placing Of
American property under the jurisdiction
of France or any other single power.
The readiness of British warships to sup
port the viceroy in resisting the French
demands is. also displayed and the blue
book gives the American China Devel-
opment c~ompany's contract for the Han
koW Canton railway, signed in Wash
ingtOn in 1898. The whole tenor of the
British dispatches show a desire to meet
the views of Germany and the United
States in all matters in which they were
concerned.

auncefOte Is Selected

Washington, March 15.-In consulting
Sir Julian Pauncefote, the British am
b~assador, as to whether an appointment
as one of the British delegates to the
czar's disarmament congress will be
agreeable to him., the purpose was made
known to have the delegates accompa
MED by army and nava attaches and by
a staff commensurate with the import
ance of the mission. These officials doubt
less will stand in the position of experts
able to show the extent and cost of the
great standing armies and navies of the
world. Sir Julian's appointment as one
of the delegates is practically settled, al
though the official notification has not yet
haaO given
