LIKES MekINLEY'S POLICY.
Senator HOar Says 1t is Because the
Monroe Doctrine Is Being
buried,
st. Louis Republic Special.

st. Louis Republic Special
BOSTON, Mass. Oct. 7.--Senator
George Frisbie Hoar, who has spent the
summer in Europe, arrived today on
the steamship Canada. When asked
what Englishmen, as a rule, think of
our policy in the Philippines. Senator
Hoar replied, abruptly:
They think we are making big asses
of ourselves, but they are anxious that
we shall do it. They think it an
abandonment of the Monroe doctrine
and of our old attitude generally.
Mr. Hoar said that he had never heard
an Englishman speak in private with
anything but amusement of our attitude
in respect to the Philippines, though
many public men in England commend
the policy of the United States in their
official utterances. They think it is to
the advantage of Great Britain to have
us in the East, making league of
other nations against them impossible.
Being pressed for his personal views,
Senator Hoar said that he believed the
feeling of regret was strengthening that
we did not make the treaty provisions
relating to the Philippines similar to
those which relate to Cuba.
1T seemed to me at the time, - said
he. land all my reflections since have
confirmed me in this opinion, that if
we had precisely the same provisions in
the treaty as regards the Philippines as
we have as regards Cuba, we should
have had no war Instead of everlast-
ing enmity we should have had the
undying gratitude of that people. We
should have aided them in keeping
order and there would have been new
nation in the East, differing from Japan
in the fact that it would have been
Republic, and we should have had the
glory forever of having been their
liberators and benefactors.
Senator Hoar indicated his belief that
if some solution of the Philippine
problem is not soon devised the effect
upon the Republican party in the next
Presidential election will be dis
astrous.
The Van Buren press., 1899-10-14

You of the South and West may not
only look for party harmony in New
York; YOU may expect to see Bryan
sweep the state next year by so 900. 1t
is no longer the enemy's country;
it is the country and home of your
friends. The party has gone back to
the teachings and examples of such men
as Horatio Seymour and Samuel j.
Tilden and August Belmont, and every
one Democratic. worthy to guard the
names and memories of those mighty
leaders of mighty past, is around the
party standards.
As for that slim one per cent of Demo

disease of party at best and Democracy

their elimination.
AS / close | say to you, Democrats of
Texas, whatever else you may doubt,
be sure of the Eastern Democracy; be
sure and certain of New York. 1t is
loyal to the general party, loyal to you
as it is loyal to itself If New York s
Democracy were in control of the party
the convention work next year would
be simplicity itself. 1t would make
Bryan the candidate, Bryan the issue,
Bryan the battle-cry. As the open
sesame that shall unbar the gates to
party victory in November, 1900, speak
ing for the New York Democracy and
in the name of New York present to
you the sentiment, Bryan and
harmony.

A Deplorable Accident.

A deplorable accident occurred at the
close of the free performance of the feat
of the high diving dog carried by the
Guy Opera company Thursday. Master
Willie Watts, the messenger for the
Western Union Telegraph company here
was among the crowd of children and
grown people who had assembled to see
the performance. Master Willie had
taken a seat ON the fence few feet east
of the opera house and just after the
performance while watching the scaffold
from which the dog made his dive from
the top Of the opera house being drawn
back, brick became dislodged and
crashing down struck him on the head
making dangerous wound.
He was taken home unconcious, but
later recovered consciousness. Yesterday
forenoon an operation was performed
and the chances for the boys recovery
are very favorable. The doctors tool
twenty five pieces of bone from the
wound, but found that the membrane
of the brain had not been ruptured.
