Americans Ill-Treated,

Dresden, GERMANY, Sept. 80, 1899.
To the Editor Of The American:
1t may be interesting to those contem-
plating residence in Germany for them
selves or their children, for educational or
other purposes, to know that the German
papers are full of contemptuous illusions
to America and Americans, in every posi-
bic connection, and have been so, not only
since our declaration of war with Spain,
but since the present high tariff set a
barrier to the prosperity OF so many Ger
man manufacturing industries, and espec
tally those of the kingdom OF Saxony,
Hate and ridicule alternate in the column,
of the daily papers misinterpretation is
as common as it is cruel and ungrounded.
1t is not pleasant to live among people
who are jealous OF our superiority while
asserting their own, and it is not patriotic
to put dollars in the pockets of those who
daily decry our country and our fellow
eountrymen. Our incompetent army, eur
ill bred children, and our "fresh" young
women are the most frequent topics; the
venality of our judges, the frequency Of
lynchings and divorces, being the spec al
meats in the dinner of SANDER.
To those whom patriotism cannot in
fiuence, it may be worth while to point
ont the almost utter absence of home com
forts such as we understand them. and Of
proper sanitary appliances such as we de-
mand; the meagrencss of the fare, com
pared to American profusion, the annoy
ances of railway travel, the restrictions ot
the police. the lack of respect for women,
the obtrusion of conversational topics
which at home are tabooed in ladies
society; the melancholy OF the climate in
winter, the lack OF proper heating appar-
atus, the unwillingness to admit any
ventilation whatever, and the restrictions
on free speech, which visit any criticism
OF the kaisers person, sayings or actions
with imprisonment.
The city which has most to thank Amer
leans for, and which, despite its many
charms, deserves its popularity among
Americans the least, because of the rapa
cious character of its merchants and the
general unreliabiiity OF work people, Is
Dresden. In this city overcharges to FOR
eigners are the rule bills are rendered fer
sums in excess Of what are agreed upon,

Mrs. Elizabeth |. Joy, wife of Repre-
sentative Joy, of Missouri, is actively
engaged in working up sentiment
against allowing Roberts, the polyga-
mist representatives elect from Utah,
to retain his membership in the
House. She has prepared petition,
a copy of which she has sent to the
wife of every member of the House of
the fifty-sixth Congress, requesting
that it be signed and returned to her.
This petition reads as follows: I'VE,
the wives of the members elect of the
incoming Congress, hereby urge our
respective husbands in their official
capacity, and the fifty sixth Congress
as an organized body, to expel from
membership therein Brigham II. Rob
erts, of Utah. The spirit of our civili-
cation and of our laws, as well as the
dignity of American womanhood and
the purity of the American home, de-
mands that neither he, nor any such as
he. shall ever take part in the coun-
ellis of the law makers of our beloved
country.

"Our old tax collector, Leroy Wardwell,
is making quite lively stir among deiin-
quent tax payers, as the long list OF ad-
vertised estates indicates" writes our Pc
nobscot correspondent, and then briefly
sums up some of the causes OF the popular
habit of paying this years taxes next
year as follows; First, laxity OF collec-
tors; second, a desire to get little more
interest on money loaned or employed;
third, the habit OF getting in debt;
fourth, shrinking from present ltahili-
ties. fifth, a sangune view OF life under
difficulties from which arises the hope
that we shall be little better off next
year than this. This includes three classes,
the sharpers, the proerastinates, and the
unfortunstes. The first can hardly be
deemed model citizens, the second are 10

In the current issue of The Independent

two sides to the question of what Is our
present duty in the Philippines. BY our
treaty with Spain aud with the exchange
OF Publications OF the tresty, these islands
became ours. Our title to them is clear
and unauestionable under our constitu-
ton, and under the law and usages OF
nations.
The insurreettou there against our su-
thority began after the treaty was signed
at Paris, and continues to this time. Our
duty requires us to suppress this insurrec-
ton, and to establish peace and order
there. This, | understand, the President
is endeavoring to do through the means
given him by Congress before the close OF
the last session through the army BILL
which provided for 100. 900 men Temporal
rily, with the understanding OF all parties
that this army would be used so far as
necessary to suppress this instruction.
This duty was imperative upon the

liberty and justice and with view To
their highest possible civilization. Here
toiore when possessions have teen
acquired by The United States, Congress
dealt with the people residing in those
territories in the spirit OF liberty and
justice which prevails in our consultation
and in our laws; and have no reason to
believe or even TO suspect that future
Congresses will not make such rules and
regulations for these inhabitants as VIII
provide FOR them The largest measure OF
liberty possible Tor them, as well R. the
largest local participation In the govern
ment consistent with the situation there
under our sovereignty and under our flag.
80 far as ! can sce, the only practical
alternative to this is the abandonment
OF the islands. the withdrawal OF our
troops and the withdrawal OF our navy as
well. The President has no power to di-
rect this. as he cannot ALLEVIATE territory
acquired; Congress can do so by law, and
Will soon be in session. and those who
think we should surrender hat We have

The mass meeting 6. the Congrega-
tional church in Ellsworth last Sun
day evening TO protest against the
seating in Congress Of Polygamist
Roberts, was only one of the thou
sands that are being held throughout
the country. From evidence that has
not been uncontradicIed. it seems that
the plural marriage feature of Nor
monism is by no means eliminated
from either the doctrine or practice OF
the faith. This is contrary to the
spirit as we'll as the letter of the law
under which Utah was admitted TO the
Union. The boldness OF Roberts can
most effectually be rebuked by retus-
ing him a seat in the House The in
dications are that ms will be done,
