General Beatty, who is one of the

with distinction throughout the civil

an uncompromising Republican, wher-

he has not hesitated by voice or pen
TO mercilessly fay the scourge. Mr..
Beatty represented in congress the
great and wealthy Columbus district,
and has held many positions Of public
trust and honor. He is Of the old

passing away-LinColn, Grant, Garfield

CRIMINAL GREED.
Attempts to Justify Avarice by AS
sumptions of Superiority.

The truth is that men, prompted by
mean ambitions, by avarice, vanity,
or luxurious inclinations, are not un-
likely to attempt to justify acts of
criminal selfishness and brutality by
specious assumptions of superiority.
Ingenious but Elusive allegations with
respect to the intelligence and nobil-
ity of one class or race, and
the ignorance and degradation of
another, have from time immemorial
served as pretexts for depriving large
numbers of mankind of their rightful
share of Gods favors. Arguments
similar to those now used to excuse
the holding of the Filipinos in subju-
cation have been worn threadbare by
every slave owner, slave trader and
slave driver of the world. If the peo-
pie of the United States should now
repudiate the only doctrine which rem
ders our country pre-eminent among
nations-that of the equality and in
alienable rights of men-we may soon
look for restricted suffrage, oppressive
taxation, an immense national debt, a
great army and the arbitrary rule of
Caesars. If our experience as a ma
tion has taught us anything with ter
rible emphasis, it is that people who
would themselves be free, should not
advocate the curtailment of the rights
and privileges Of others.
8. 1t is said, that what other ma
tions have the power to do, this nation
has the power to do; that to hold the
contrary is to concede that the United
States is inferior to other nations; but
this Is all nonsense. 1t was certainly
not the desire of the fathers, nor is
it the wish of their sons, that this
government should be permitted to do
=
done or are doing. We claim to have
government so much superior to al
others that it must obtain its power
from the people, not usurp it, and
WELD it against the will of majorities.
OF course it may be shown that we
have often erred in the past, but our
errors should not be converted into
precedents for the commission of new
outrages. Ours is government of the
people, not of emperors or kings, and
1t has the legal right to do only what
the people have given 1t the power to
do. In other words, II is the theory
of our government that It's officers,
whether elective or appointive, are the
servants of the people, not their mas
ters; that they have right to do in
their Official capacity what the consti-
tuition and the laws, passed in con-
sonance Herewith, authorize them to
do, and nothing else: This written
grant of power from the people to con-
gress should be interpreted in the
spirit of the whole instrument and not
from detached sentences. The consti-
Lution gives to congress the power TO
declare war, but for what purposes I?
To plunder others for our own enrich
| ment?-No. To subdue and oppress
foreign nations? ?-No. To establish
governments against the will of TIE
people to be governed--No. To hc.d
by force Of arms territories beyond
the sea, of which the fathers never
| reamed'!-Not at oil. The PURPOSES

ment by Force?

SoNerhhehb ny IOnSenJ OF OOVern-
ment by Force?
The war which the United States is
now waging in the Philippine Islands
is war of conquest and subjugation.
AS such it contradicts the declarations
and professions Of our whole history,
and is subversive Of the very ground
work Of our government. 1t means a
revolution not in the Philippine is
lands only, but revolution at home;
which, if successful, will ultimately
change this republic into an empire.
The doctrine that self-government is
an inherent right is the cornerstone
which lies at the foundation of our
whole political fabric; it has been
cherished by the people as true beyond
all question, and as dear beyond all
price. Yet the Mckinley administra-
ton is now trying, in utter disregard
OF this prin 'iple, to impose a govern
ment on the Philippine islands against
the will of their inhabitants, and by
force of arms. Every form of soph-
istry is therefore being used to delude
the people Of the United States into
the support of a policy which aims to
destroy not only their respect and rev.
erence for the opinions of the fathers,
belief in the fundamental principles of
republican government. The argu-
ments of those who defend the war
are mere evasions. They do not touch
the essential questions. Is the war
right? Is 1t in harmony with the prin-
ciples and policies that we have adopt
ed as at once the most just and the
best suited to promote the welfare OF
the nation?
Among the many irrelevant false
hoods with which the imperialists are
seeking to divert the attention of the
people from the vicious character OF
the administrators foreign policy
and the acts of atrocious tyranny to
which that policy has led, we find
l. The charge that the Filipino chief
Aguinaldo, sold his people for Spanish
gold.
In answer 70 this, 1t may be said
that the American consu' general al
Hongkong, (hounseveIie WIIumanJ

this charge is false. quote from his
