only four months of activity.
The thing appears top-heavy, so
dropsically inflated. that one may well
wonder whether it will fall over of its
own puffy unweldness before Colonel

Democrats under his guidance can get
a chance at it. If the promoters can

prosperity. The entire agricultural COM

the returns. a few Industrious gentle

a printing establishment have created

IsIT A MOUSE. OR A MONSTER !

What do these disorders in so many
European capitals portend? Are they
mere effervescences Of superficial ex-
element. meaning nothing more? Or
are they ebullitions of deep-seated SEN
timents that forebode strife and mill
tary repression. IL not bloody revolu-
ton and the CONGREGATIONS of capitals
and empires? 1t is difficult for us to
comprehend these foreign and usually
very excitable populations. who boil
over furiously for a moment, but seem
to put out'their own fires by their over
flow before any great damage is done.
Yet Just now there is a concert and
coincidence in these public manifesto
tions OF public discomfort that argue a
more deep-seated cause and a'more Sc
rious intention than usual.
At Brussels, Berlin, Rome. Madrid,
Paris and other centers there Is man
ifest a temper ready to seize any &C.
casion or opportunity for an outbreak;
but, on the other hand, we have no
knowledge of any organization or lead
er anywhere that can turn these DEM
constructions into any steady purpose

OPINIONS OF THE PR ESs.
A COMMERCIAL VIEW.
(From Houston Postl

The expansionists have had a great
deal to say about the wonderful adj
vantages to be derived by this govern
ment from the ownership and control
of the Eastern archipelago. and their
theorieS-as theories usually do--sound
we'll enough. but when practical facts
figures. which never deceive-are ap-
piled, they explode. and leave not even
an impress of their former existence.
The Mobile Register has been apply
ing some figures to this Philippine mat
ter. and here is the way the account
stands:
Having bought the Philippine islands
from Spain for the sum of $50. O0O. 600
or, as it has been generally stated at
the rate of 81 per head. followed by
the consequent cost or unknown mil
lions of dollars to make the bargain
bind, the people of the country have
the right to expect that the trade Of the
islands is some thing OF such paramount
Importance as to justify the expendi-
ture of lives and cash now being dis
pensed with such liberality by the
United States. Whether this assumption
Is we'll founded or not can best be
judged by the official trade statistics
issued from the State Department in its
last volume of Commercial Relations
Of the United States" just out OF the
government printing office. The figures
given by the department are for the
the exports of the Philippines were S19.-
100000 and the imports into the islands
for the same year $l2. 200. 000 making the
total trade s31 SOC, 900. Assuming that
the extent of the normal trade OF the
islands had been diminished by the po-
litical conditions in that year by one
third, an outside estimate. it will be
seen that the entire trade of the Is
lands yearly does not equal that Of an
average State of the Union. Yet, the
government is expanding enough in the
effort to retain these Islands TO give
every port in the United States. from
Alaska to Maine. harbors as perfect as
could be asked for. with channels that
would admit the largest vessels which
the trade Of each and every port de-
mapds.
If there is no commercial value In
these islands to us why on earth should
we retain them. and thus entail upon
the American people the immense cost
of keeping them up, even after millions
have been spent in subjugating them
These questions are propounded from
business standpoint, and from a bus
mess standpoint alone.
BY a government amalga nation are
we to receive other sort of remunera-
ton? IF no commercial benefit. then
what? Certainly no moral. intellectual
or scientific good.
