Mr.. Edmunds scores the Annexation
Policy gain

Ex-senator Edmunds still further con-
demns the policy of controlling the Philip
pines in letter addressed to the New
York World While the population of the
islands, he says, is denser than that of the
state of Michigan, only two per cent of ii
is European or American after more than
200 years Of European control When
Dewey gained control Of the bay and city
of Manila all beyond that was in possession
OF an organized rebellion against Spanish
rule, and the people who were carrying on
that rebellion are now equally hostile to
American annexation. They want to be
independent, and We have no justification
for forcing by the sword our particular
and excellent idea of government upon
them. AS to the status of the Filipinos,
Mr.. Edmunds argues that all of them who
were the subjects of Spain will become
citizens of the United States by the mere
act of cession, and as such they will have
all the rights that belong to other citizens
in the territories. Mr.. Edmunds says that
Congress, therefore, cannot lawfully pre-
vent the migration OF any citizen residing
in the Philippines to our states, any more
than it can lawfully prevent the migration
of citizens of the states to the Philippines"
AS to the payment of $40, 100000 for ter
ritory which Spain did not control, Mr..
Edmunds says that, sin view of the gravity
of the other aspects of the subject, it is
not worthy of notice.

Cruiser Albany to BE Launched.

The United States cruiser Albany, sister
ship of the New Orleans, will be launched
at Newcastle, Eng, tomorrow. The New
Orleans and the Albany were bought OF
Brazil by our government few weeks be-
fore the war with Spain broke out. The
New Orleans was then ready for service,
but the Albany was in process of construc-
tion and under the laws of neutrality nc
work could be done on the vessel in for.
eigu ship-yard until peace had been de-
clared. The New Orleans proved herself
during the war with Spain to be one of the
most effective vessels of her class in the
United States navy. Wherever there was
any fighting going on she was pretty sure
to have hand in it and to give good ac.
count of herself

The January vermonter

Nine pages of the January issue of The
Vermonter are devoted to very C mpete
sketch of the life of Senator Morrill, and TO
an account of the funeral services in his
honor in Washington and in Montpelier.
The article is fully illustrated, giving three
portraits of Mr.. Morrill, a portrait of Mrs.
Morrill,, a view of their house in Strafford,
of their Washington home, group pic
ture of the congressional honorary escort
which accompanied the senator's body to
Vermont, and Photographic pictures of
the State house decorations. Another
article of special interest is that contribut-
ed by Mrs. j. Gregory Smith on "The St.
Albans Raid" of 1864. This article is a
valuable contribution to the history of the
Union, and contains many interesting per-
sonal "reminiscences of the wife of one of
Vermont's honored war governors. 1t
contains group of Illustrations reproduc-
ed from Frank Leslie's Illustrated News
paper of November 10, 1864, and is also
accompanied by an excellent portrait of
Mrs. Smith, whose article will be complet-
ed in a second irstalment in the February
number.
The January issue is one in which Col.
c. S. Forbes, the publisher, may feel a
just pride.

The North Carolina attempt to reduce
the negroes to abject intellectual slavery
has taken definite form. A bill has been
introduced in the legislature of that state
to deprive the blacks of all public school
education except that which they in their
pitiful poverty are able to pay for them
selves. The scheme is to separate the
school money, using the taxes paid by
white men for the support OF schools for
white children and the money paid by The
blacks for the support Of schools for black
children. II was stated in these columns
not many weeks ago that this scheme
would probably be tried.

Grover Cleveland is a strong man with
some very weak points. One of these
points of weakness was disclosed the 9TH
er day when he suggested, with what was
inteaied to be crushing sarcasm, that a
good way to dispose OF any of the Filipnos
who object to subjecting themselves to the
"benehceEce' Of American control would
be TO slaughter "a few thousand. or a few
hundred thousand Of them" This" he
continued, should be only regarded as
one stage in transceudcnlally great
movement-a mere incident in its progress.
OF course, some unprepared souls would
then be lost before We had the opportunity
Of ChristianizIng them, but surely those Of
our clergymen who have done so much To
encourage expansion could manage that
difficulty" Mr. Cleveland has a perfect
right to he opposed to expansion and an.
neXation, but talk ike this from an ex-
president Of the United States doesn't help
his side Of the case.

Dewey Is a Republican.

Democratic newspapers have claimed
frequently that Admiral Dewey belonged
to their party. The Admiral's brother,
President Charles Dewey of the National
Life Insurance company, says the Admiral
has not voted since he entered the navy in
1854. He has never been where he could
vote. His legal residence is in Montpelier
and he would vote there if anywhere.
Charles Dewey adds: 81 have always
considered George Republican, but not a
