SIMPLY NATTER OF BUSINESS.

If Senator Carter of Montana speaks for
the Republican party. that party looks at
the Philippine situation with an eye sin
gle to business In an interview in the
New York Post a day or two ago he
said that an his opinion the war in the
Philippines would be over by the first
Of next January, and that then would
come the question Of the government OF
the islands. That question, in his opinion,
will be settled by the answer 20 this
question; will it pay to keep them? II
the American people think it will, the
American flag Will never come down. II,
on the other hand, it appears that they
viii be a source of constant trouble and
expense. with little or no prospect of ever
being profitable, the decision will be
against making permanent possession Of
them
This is a very practical way Of treating
this important question, but it must be
admitted that it is a way that many will
look at 1t when the time comes for de-
Gliding it. There has been, and will con-
tinue to be. a great deal said about civ
ilizing the various tribes of the islands
and giving them the benefits of religion
and of our free and enlightened institu-
lions, but 1t will be found that sentiment
and religion viii have very little to do
with settling the question as to whether
or not We shall retain the Islands. This
IS a practical view, and the Americans are
an intensely practical people.
The President of course talks about
benevolent assimilation" and the uplift-
ing of eight millions of human beings,
giving them liberty and the benefits of
the best institutions the sun ever shone
upon. but it is pretty safe to say that I'M
less it can be clearly demonstrated that
II will pay to hold the islands the verdict
of the American people will be to let the
Filipinos look out for themselves. This
seems like a harsh opinion but it must
not be forgotten that all through the
great West, during the period the Indians
were troublesome, the opinion prevailed
that the only good Indian was a dead
Indian. The effort to Christianize the IN
civilization was not nearly so great as
the effort to get their lands from them.
Senator Carter is of the opinion that the
Republican party will be able to demon
strate that it will pay to keep the islands.
1t is evident that it is going to be their
programme to attempt to do 50. 1t is not
improbable that the administration has
agents now engaged in collecting facts
about the islands for use in the campaign
next year.
From this time forward the sentimental
well be dropped, as it is becoming appar-
ent so far as the Republican party is con-
cerned, that it is to be considered from a
practical instead of a sentimental stand
point

THE CoLLrNsyILLE sTnEETs.

1t seems that the Savannah Real Estate
Building and Loan Company is in earnest
in its demand for the payment, by the
city, for the land occupied for the streets
and lanes of Collinsvine. The company s
petition has been referred to the commit
Tee of the whole of Council AS the pub
lie is very much interested in this ques-
ton, because 1t VIII have to foot the bill
If the companys claim is held to be good,
1t would like to know just where the re-
sponsibility rests for not getting title to
the streets and lanes when the contract
for them was made.
In order to find out just what the facts
are would it not be well for the commit
tee of the whole to institute an investiga-
ton so that the public may know who,
If any one, was derelct in duty? It may
be that nobody is to blame, and that the
city has at no time yet been entitled to
deeds to the streets and lanes. If that be
the fact, let il be known, Don't let any
body be blamed unjustly, but if there has
been fault-fault that may cost the city
thousands of dollars-let ii be located.
If it be true that there has been negli-
gence that is likely to greatly increase the
city's burdens, the public ought to know
it. 1t would be unjust probably to indulge
in sweeping criticism before all the facts
are known, but there is pretty certain to
be great deal of pretty severe criticism
if the city is compelled to pay anywhere
from $25 900 10 10000 for the streets and
lanes of Collinsville when they could have
been had for the improvements that will
have to be made whether the city has TO

Senatorial Tact.

1.-THE man with the hoe" put down that
agricultural implement long enough to
come up to town last week on a search
for his senator, only to find that the noted
statesman had started for the seashore on
a train about leaving the city, says the
Washington correspondence of the New
York Tribune. The business of the man
with the noe was most important, so he
made hurried trip to the station, where
he arrived in time to take the same train
which, he had been informed, the senator
had taken.
I'm looking for Senator Blank" he
confided 10 the conductor. Wont you
please find him for me? He's somewhere
on the train"
The conductor graciously consented to
try, but returned in few moments.
Senator Blank is not on the train" he
announced. I've been all through, and
there is no one on board travelling on a
pass"
The bucolic gentleman settled himself
discontentedly. He distinctly disapproved
of passes, and, while he had a theory that
all politicians Travelled on passes, he hated
to have that theory confirmed. Senator
Blanks stock accordingly went down. In
less Than half an hour the man of his
search slapped him Familiarity on the
shoulder.
"Well old man, what are you doing
here?" he asked.
"What-what are you doing here?'
quered the surprised constituent in re-
turn. Il sent all through the train, hav-
ing come this way especially to find you,
but the conductor said you were not on
board"
How on earth could the conductor
know" asked the senator. HE probably
never saw me before"
He looked for a man travelling on a
pass" replied his friend, cycling the sena-
tor narrowly, "but, finding no one. knew,
of course, you could not be on the train. -
The senator laughed, but took his cue.
"Pass?' he said; pass? I never travel on
a pass; I always pay my fare" If he is
defeated for the Senate it will not be
through lack of activity on the part of
the man with the hoe" who, more for
tunate than Diogenes, thinks he has found
an honest man. The conductor could tell
him better, however, for the senator rode
on a pass from Baltimore, where it was
brought to him by an obsequous official.

BRYAN AND THE PHILIPPINES.

According to our dispatches yesterday
from San Francisco Mr.. Bryan is not in
favor of wlthdra wing our troops from the
Philippines until a stable government Is
established there-until the Fnipinos have
a republican form of government After
that is accomplished he thinks that the
United States should give the Philippine
republic the same sort of protection they
now give the republics OF South and Cen
trail America
This Is about what Mr.. Bryan has been
saying all along. though the impression
appears to have got abroad that he is ad-
vocating the Withdrawal Of our army from
the Philippines at once But Mr.. Bryan
should go a little further, and say wheth-
or or not he favors establishing a Philip
pine republic by force If the Fnipinos OBJ
ject to our having a hand in establishing
II. II may be that if the F'ilipinos were
assured that they should have their indie
pendence, and that our army would do
nothing more than protect them while set
ting up a government of their own, they
would cease their opposition 10 our occu-
patton of the Islands. But. assuming that
they would not, would Mr.. Bryan advise
carrying on the war against them until
they submitted to our rule? That is a
question that Mr.. Bryan apparently
evades, though it might be said that his
answer to il is contained in what he has
already said If it is, it is SO obscure
that it is not wholly satisfactory.
1t is stated on what seems to be good
authority that Nguinaldo is not disposed
TO accept any proposition from our gov
eminent that does not include the evacua-
ton of the islands by our army. He has
an impression that he is the master of the
situation, and that after a little more
fighting our army will depart and leave
him in possession of the islands. Indeed,
there is pretty good evidence TO the effect
that the great majority of the Filipinos
are satisfied with American rule, and
would willingly assist in making it sue
cess if it were not for Aguinaldo and
few of the other leaders. Aguinaldo is
the soul of the instruction. If he were
out of the way the war would come to
an end al once.
Although Mr.. Bryan wouldn't recall our
army from the Philippines until a stable
government was established there, the pol
icy he advocates is widely different from
that of the President. In his Pittsburg
speech the President said that he favored
keeping the islands as a permanent pos
session. He would govern them as a col
ony 1t is this wide difference between the
two policies which is going to be a great
issue between the Republican and Demo-
cratic parties in the campaign next year.

Bishop Huntington told this story on
himself during one of his last visits to
Washington says the Washington Post
The good bishop, it seems, once went down
to a town in Connecticut to perform
marriage ceremony He arrived the day
before the wedding, and he left at the
same time the bridal pair did, although he
was driven to a different railway station.
AS he passed through the station, carry
ing his travelling bag, he was aware that
he was creating a sensation, but was to-
tally at a loss TO account for it. In the
car he found that he was still the object
of amused attention. The porter positively
snickered as he passed his seat. and final
ly lust as the train drew out he came up
anu assisted Ihe churchman to remove his
overcoat.
~ hat is the matter with you my
mani" asked the bishop. The porter S
smoker broadened into laugh.
'Ain't you done lef' the lady, sah?" he
chuckled
''Eh?" exclaimed the bishop in surprise
Then his eye fell on the side of his trav-
cling bag, which the porter had just
turned round. There glued to it was
wide strip of white satin ribbon, on which
was painted in large letters:
Married this morning"
The facetiously minded best man had
mistaken the bishops travelling bag for
that of the bridegroom. and chuckling
black porter worked late into the night
removing that ribbon.
