there must be about 800 British officers and

The reported intention Of the British Govern

only shows how much they moderated both

Fifty-sixth Congress.

The Congress which meets to-day will be
called upon to grapple with problems SO
comprehensive and SO profound in their
significance that every resource OF Its
craftsmanship will DO taxed to the utmost
In the encounter.
Even simply as the Congress OF 1900,
the Flfty-sixth Congress would have had
q peculiar distinction, though the settle
ment OF no such questions had been i'm
posed on IL by antecedent events; but now
II will be forever memorable In American
history as the first Congress which
had an opportunity to deal with the
worldwide interests growing out OF new
and greater development OF America ter
rltorally and commercially. 1t assemblies
as the end Of the greatest century since
mankind came into being approaches, and
at q time when the Nation is starting out
on new and more brilliant career.
The party Of progress distinctlvely
has but narrow majority in the House
OF Representatives Of this Congress, but
II is sufficient IL 1t is held together by
wise craftsmanship; and even in the oppo-
sition there may be some enlightened minds
who will refuse TO follow the lead OF short
sighted associates in attempting to throw
away the opportunity and resist the destiny
OF America

TO the fullest extent possible, has been
restored and purified. and made more just
and efficient, the garrisons OF our troope
being meanwhile reduced steadily. While
| this process has been going on "the con-
duct OF the Cuban people" Secretary RooT
| testiflcs, has been admirable"
| In Porto Rico the year has been devoted
! TO administering and improving the civil
government Of the island" and educating
the people for self-govcrnment, in consul
tation with leading men among the inhabi-
tants. A general system OF education has
been established. The courts have been
reorganized and their methods purified,
simpliicd and expedited. Reforms In mu-
nlcipal governments have been effected and
experiments in the way Of municipal cleo
lions are In progress. Bandits who had
terrorized parts OF the island have been
subdued and order and security have been
restored, though Industrial problems involv-
ing the prosperity of tho island are yet to
be solved by legislation Of Congress.
The revenues Of Cuba, Porto Rico,
and the Philippines have been collected
and disbursed under the direction Of OH
GERS OF the army with an honesty and strict
obedience to law wholly unknown in former
administrations. Never before has there
been so small n proportion OF the revenues
applied TO the cost OF collection and the
expenses OF government, or diverted TO
private uses, or so great n proportion
applied to the benefit OF the inhabitants.
In the Philippines the processes and
benefits OF just and efficient civil govern
ment have followed steadily the advance Of
our troops, having been extended wherever
their occupation has been permanent. The
courts have been organized and the most
learned and competent native lawyers
appointed to preside over them Tho
American system Of education has been in
troduced and numerous schools estab-
lshed.
Everywhere, therefore, American admin
istration is commencing itself to the in
tclligence OF the people OF these islands as
honest, patient, just and efficient, and when
better social and industrial conditions pre-
vail, under the influences OF continued peace
and with the aid OF legislation by Congress
It will unquestionably produce results which
will bring to them degree OF prosperity
they have never before enjoyed. Thus, the
purely military achievements OF the war
with Spain were not more creditable to
American arms than tho management OF
the civil affairs of our new possessions has
been notable as q convincing demonstra-
ton OF American ability and aptitude for
government, since the conclusion OF tho
conflict and the steady progress which has
been made this autumn In rescung tho
island Of Luzon from the merciless devas-
tation OF AGuNALpo.

Steamship Lines TO tho Colonies.

Berlin dispatches say that direct steam
ship service will probably be established
between Germany and Samoa. The Sa-
moan Islands are one Of the two greatest
centres OF the copra industry and there
Is no doubt that regular steamship con-
nection with Germany will stimulate
the cultivation OF the cocoanut palm on
the German plantations. Tho German
policy, like England's Is to develop her
colonies by keeping them in close touch
with herself and subsidies are given
steamship companies, II necessary. to
secure regular transport service. Every
German colony in Africa is thus connected
with German ports The steamers run fire.
quently only II the business interests In
volved demand IL, but they must have
regular dates for departure from colonial
and home ports. German Southwest AZ
rica, for example, has steamer only every
two months, but the people know when to
expect the vessel and when II will sail.
Regular steamship service between Ger
many and the myriad little islands she
possesses in Polynesia is not necessary nor
practicable, but none the less these islands
are In frequent communication with home
ports by means OF the German schooners
necessarily plying among them. In this way
the most important centres OF the German
trade between Apa on the south and zap on
the north. including Jaluit in the Marshall
Islands and Matupi In the Bismarck Archi-
pelago, and many lesser points are being
developed. The schooners make transship-
ments to and from German steamers at
Sydney Of freight coming from or going to
the German islands in Polynesia.
The decadence OF the French establish
ments in Polynesia illustrates the folly OF
having colonies unless they are cared for
and bound to the central mother country by
regular trade connections. Only Noumea In
New Caledonia is a port OF call for French
steamers Tahiti, the Marquesas Islands,
Tuamotu, Gambler and lesser French
islands have to-day no trade relations
with France, except such as are afforded
by the haphazard visits OF foreign vessels.
These possessions are all fertile and valu-
able and are simply suffering from neglect.
Tahiti has about 2Oo.O acres Of tillable
lands, but plantations have been abandoned
and the inhabitants raise only what they
need for food and clothing. Over II, 600
cocoanut palms were In bearing In 1885
for the copra trade, but 1t has now ceased,
as has also tho culture OF cotton. The only
article OF export Is the vanilla bean. lie
Tour du Monde attributes the retrogression
OF the French islands to the discontinuance
OF direct communications with France and
the failure to make good roads and other
improvements. for which the colonsts asked
In vain.
Fortunately for the new colonies OF our
own country, there Is no danger that
desire and effort on the part OF tho United
States to give them good government and
good communication with the rest OF tho
the world will be wanting.

Populist Legislatures. undertaking to re-
duce TO practice the theories OF their party
platforms, have had to be taught by the
courts that there are such things n exist
ence as State and Federal constitutional
limitations upon acts destructive OF bust
ness and property rights. A stern lesson
OF the sort is again furnished to them in
the decision just handed down by Judge
Hook in the United States District Court
at Topeka, In the case OF the Kansas Court
OF Visitation"
When, after the autumn elections in
1898, it became evident that the heyday
OF Populism had passed. the Popullst Gov
ernor of Kansas called an extra session OF
the old Legislature for the purpose OF doing
as much harm as possible TO the railroads.
telegraph and insurance companies, and
other business corporations In the State,
before the new Anti-Populist Legislature
came In Office. Tho old Legislature met and
created an extraordinary body known as
the Court Of Visitation" to which were
committed almost limitless powers OF in
spection. control and punishment OF many
OF the corporations Of the State. The old
State Board OF Railroad Commissioners was
bWtpJ AWAY anu DOlu ana tele-
graph companies were turned over to the
merces OF the new Court OF Visitation.
To that body power was given to fix
freight and passenger railroad rates and
telegraph tolls and to appoint receivers
and take control OF the property OF corpo-
rations which might disobey II.
Judge Hook holds that 1t Is evident
from q mere cursory examination that the
rates which the Court OF Visitation I'M posed
were less than the required services
actually cost, and that, accordingly, the law
was OF the nature OF an act OF conflscation
pure and simple. He further decides that
the Legislature undertook to endow it's
Court Of Visitation with judicial, legis-
lative and administrative powers that
are In gross violation OF the Constitution,
not only Of Kansas. but OF the United
States also.
OF course, an appeal from this decision Is
possible. but 1t Is not likely to be taken.
The Kansas people have recovered their
sanity, and 1t Is questionable II there Is a
lawyer in the State Of sufficient prominence
to be consulted. who would advise the
Popnlst leaders that successful attack
upon Judge Hooks decision could be
| made
Thevdecision is check and a warning to
Populists, whether OF Kansas or OF any
| other State OF the Union.
