DOLLARS AND CENTS.

DOLLARS AND CENTS.
Senator Carter is the most outspoken
imperialist OF the whole lot. He says
frankly that the Philippines will be
dealt with purely on basis OF dollars
and cents and il the islands are source
OF profit we will hold them, otherwise
they will be disposed OF in some way.
He is opposed to anything but an i'm
perial form of government composed Of
a governor and council appointed by
the president and under his control.
These are the true sentiments OF the
imperialists and If they are put into
force people OF the islands will soon be
furnishing their labor to monopolists
and trusts at the prevailing price in
India, that British hive OF misery, want
and corruption-four to six cents a day
and the products OF this labor will be
shipped TO this country free of duty
for We cannot tax products from our
colonies-tO be sold in competition with
home products. Senator Carter has told
the truth regarding the policy Of the i'm
perialists. Their high moral aims in
shooting religion, civilization and good
government into the Filipinos are
governed wholly by dollars and cents.
they pay Us, We will keep them; ii
they do not, we will sell them. And
that is what imperialists call patriotism
and liberty, political liberty like
our foreiathers fought for. 1t is a new
version Of the declaration Of independ-
enee. an insult to American manhood
and declaration that American com
merciAlism has sunk all other consider
otions OF government, right or justice
beneath the greed OF gain-for dollars
and cents. The grab for gold is going 10
govern our actions in the future. The
constitution, independence. tradition and
American love OF liberty, all are to be
sacrificed on the altar OF mammon. ali
the American people believe that the
Philippines are going to help Us, they
will never let the islands go. We are
going to deal with the question on the
basis Of dollars and cents Did ever
Lincoln, Washington, jefferson, Grant
or any other great man OF our nation
drag the honor OF American manhood to
such base uses in dealing with the lives
and liberties of a people. Our war for
humanity, begun in Cuba, is to end in
the Philippines fighting for-dollArs and
cents. The only difference between
Senator Carter and other leading impa-
riaIists is that he has told the truth
sooner than they wished it. Only a few
million poor human beings over there:
let US subdue and make. not chatt.
slaves OF them, but panper slaves. Eng
land has her India, why not the United
States her Philippines? We bought
the right tr govern them for dollars and
cents. Why not get our money back
with interest, for dollars and cents
count more than humanity. These
things ought to open the eyes OF many
honest people who are being deceived
into belief in imperialism.

ity and authority: with large armies to
be recruited, subsisted, and equipped,
at a very few months notice, the wonder
need not be that there was occasional
chaos ana inefficiency--but rather that
there was not more OF it. The attempt
to hold one overworked man re-
sponsible for this condition of affairs,
due directly to the negligence of Con-
gress, is nothing short of contemplate.
Secretary Alger was confronted with a
herculean task, and, SO far as it was in
human power, he performed it we'll.
Indeed we may well wonder at the re.
suits he was able to accomplish at such
short notice and under such tremend-
Gus pressure. To attempt. at this late
day. to hold him personally responsible
for conditions due directly to lack of
proper preparation for the emergency
with which he was called to DEAL is to
ignore the facts of history, and be
guilty of gross injustice. U.s..
We are glad that the Grand Army
men of Massachusetts are broad
enough to resent the uncalled for in
suits heaped upon Mr.. Alger during his
visit to their state. Such usage was
uncalled for and reflects sadly upon
the intelligence and decency of all who
were in any way responsible for it.

One Way Of Expanding.

American efforts in expanding civil
law and order in the Philippines. Cuba
and Porto Rico. This much is corr
iirmed by the statistics relating to the
expectation of American typewriters,
las. year. The number of cur ma
chimes sent abroad was about 10000,
the value of which was more than two
million dollars. Now the greater part
of these machines went, not to the
countries that do not manufacture
typewriters. True. we sold to Africa
machines to the value of $43, 900 and to
Mexico nearly $31, 900, but England was
our largest purchaser with $9O4,2i5
worth, next Germany with $4O6.074.
while France and the British colonies
followed in order.
Now it is not within the memory of
the oldest subscriber alone that we
Americans used to think we had pro-
cured the manufactured article par
excellence, only when we had imported
it. How many times have we been told
that We could not hope to compete
with the skilled artisan abroad, whose
ancestors for several generations had
been trained in certain mechanical
work. 1t all seems very funny now as
we look back, only a very few years to
that time. and occasionally we find a
relic of those days who has not yet
succeeded in disabusing his mind Of
that long cherished delusion. And so
there are Still a few, they are growing
less every year, who will at this late
day, insist that all this would have
come about, we should have advanced
just as rapidly and surely in our manu-
features of the various sorts, should
have gone ahead and seized from the
British mechanic. what once was re-
garded as his birthright just as ex-
peditiously if We had never had a
protective tariff.

Reflections Of q Bachelor.

Virtue apologies a lot more than sin.
You can repent in haste as easily > as
you can marry at leisure. N ~
The more clothes some women want the
less they seem to like to wear.
Eve knew she did not like apples. She
only wanted to see how much she disliked
them.
After 3d. woman's sweetest memory is
that when she was married she ate no
more than bird.
The funniest thing is how women try to
keep warm from tneir feet up by wrap
ping up their neck and shoulders.
Any man can be good when he's
watched, if he isn't married.
Nobody ought ever to take a womans
word when she denies that she's home
sick.
The man who is disappointed in himself
Is generally a lot too well satisfied with
other folks.
No man knows what it is to feel re-
lieved till he has fallen from the very top
of a church steeple and then woke up. 7
No woman really" appreciates a new
dress unless she is sure some particular
woman she knows can't afford to get one
like 1t. 8s.
The worst sin is being caught.
When a man looks for signs that a
woman Is in love with him, it's a sign
that she isn't.
The funniest thing is that woman
never feels undressed as long as she has
on her stockings.
A woman is glad she had hard day
when the right person puts her head on
his shoulder and calls her brave little
girl"
If a man won't take his wife's favorite
remedy she wouldn't be surprised to have
him lose money. or get In q railroad
wreck, or anything.
A soft answer turneth away divorce.
Love is divided into, Quarters-One-quar-
ter vanity. three-quarters jealousy.
1t makes a woman shudder to think
how happy she could have made you.
Eve wanted to put on clothes merely to
be able to lave a hat to go with them.
When woman is convinced she acquits
herself by saying she has been mis-
judged.
The first time woman commits a sin
she does 1t out of curiosity, after that be-
cause it is the custom.
Through Open-work stockings shows
more of vanity than anything else.
Plain outer garments conceal the dain-

Unjust Treatment.

The treatment accorded Secretary
Alger in Boston, was far from credit
able to that city. The sober second
thought of the American people will
recognize the fact that the secretary of
war cannot be held responsible for the
lack Of preparation in our war with
Spain. That burden rests properly
upon the shoulders of Congress which
for years had proceeded upon the
theory that our country would never
again be troubled by wars or rumors
of wars, and had steadfastly refused to
make the appropriations necessary for
military preparation. This course was
pursued, too, in the face of constant
reports from commanding generals and
secretaries Of war urging the need of
such provision against the possibilities
OF conflict. The newspapers, always in
advance of national legislation, in mat
tiers pertaining to the public veal, had.
time and again. urged the wise injunc-

Our country was forced into hostilities

lack of foresight had led them to vote
against measures designed to increase
our military resources, were the mos.
prominent in forcing the armed conflict
with Spain. Then came the effort ia
