Duty ofthe United States.

Boston Herald Qnd.): 1t has become
the duty Of the. United States to afford
the Philippine Islands good government
They are not to sacrifice good govern
ment there to mpracticable Views of
carrying out what in the abstract Is the
most complete liberty. They are to set
tie the amount of liberty that may be
judiciously attained and safely and
usefully enjoyed under conditions as
they are in these eastern Islands. This
Is what we understand our government
to be engaged in attempting to bring
about now. These half-sighted individ-
uals, who would have the United States
withdraw and leave the people of the
Philippines alone, 1t seems to us, fail to
realize what that step means. TheF
have not even learned who the people
of the Philippines are. 1t is by no means
established that, even assuming the is
lands are to be left to themselves, these
men serving under Aguinaldo represent
that in them best meriting civilized en-
couragement, and best adapted to
promote safety to life there.
Here is another previous ques-
ton that has not been properly
considered by our fremont Temple fell
low citizens. We need to know wheth-
er we are promoting order or invoking
anarchy Il we yield power to the Ag-
u!naldoites. Our own Yelief Is that we
shall be taking the latter course rather
than the former. The United States
government Is cndeavoring to settle this
and other essential points before 1t fixes
upon any policy for the Philippines, and
1t should be sustained in the course 1t
has taken by the. American people.

have been mustered out; the regular
army 10 only about sixty thousand men,
and last winter Congress provided for
a provisional army for q year or two
OF thirty-fve thousand men, which the
administration 80 far Shove no DISPOSE
ton TO organize. The attention OF the
people eeens to be very slightly turned
toward military affairs. The very men
who warn US against milltarism assure
US that the sentiment OF the country is
decidedly against the policy OF the adj
minlstration In Buppressing the insur-
rectlon In the; Philippines.
This being true, where Is the mani
festation OF the terrible disease OF mil
itarism? The danger has no existence
at all. The word in It's true sense is
not In accordance with the spirit OF
this country; It does not describe our
condition or any that we will ever ex-
perience. Carl schurz made use OF It,
as do those who entertain his Views.
Militarism could not exist in this coun-
try as It does in Europe. Our little
army, does not describe 1t. The term Is
used by the class OF opposition above
referred to for lack OF argument. says
the Journal. The opponents OF the ma
tionai defense use it In n sense which
is not true, and is therefore not an
honest sense. III

TANNER and sherlrpowncy.

Governor Tanner gave the sheriff Of
Christian county, Illinois, a severe re-
buke for his action, which was largely
accountable for the military rule at
Pana. 1t turned out that the sheriff
had misrepresented the situation to the
governor, and left his deputies without
a commander during the rlotlng. The
trouble with the sheriff was that he did
not do his duty, as the sworn officer Of
the law. and preserve order, although
he was furnished with force enough for
the purpose. and a terrible massacre
might have resulted in consequence, ow-
Ing to the intensity OF the feeling.
The sheriff seems to have admitted
practically that his heart was not in
the matter. That may be true. but
when he 'ascertained that fact he
should have resigned his position rs q
law officer. When disorder is to be sup
pressed and order maintained. when
human lives are to be protected, the
officers sworn to do these things should
not be weak-hearted. In the Pana case
the conditions were aggravating on
both sides. and trouble. due to the race
feeling and other factors In the miners
strike. had already begun. 1t was just
as necessary for the civil authorities
to be on the watch to prevent violence
in the enlightened state of Illinois as
1t was few weeks since down In Geor-
gia when the officers OF the law de-
serted their posts and let mob have
full sway. The governor was forced to
dIsarm the sheriff and his deputies in
Illinois, however.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

All the arguments against alleged
imperialism" having been exhausted,
to the point that nothing new is being
said, some of those who are apt to
take pessimistic views Of the future OF
the country, or rather OF the policy Of
the government of the country, are Just
now devotlng their attention to the
dangers Of "militurlsm." The warn
ings are SO numerous agains. this evil
which they have set up In their minds
that some other distinguished thinkers
are moved to inquire just what there
is in the indications that justify the
dismal forbodlngs. They want to know
what evidences of mIlitarism exist.
This country has never been cspec-
tally inclined toward militarIsm. except
in war times. 1t seems. however, that
we have a different type OF chronic
critics than what we have had In the
past. There has suddenly arisen class
that, In spite OF the lessons OF the past
year, seem to believe that the maintain
ment of an army commensurate with
the size and Importance OF the coun-
try in time of peace is unnecessary.
They have forgotten also that the coun-
try Is growing great in many ways and
has increasing interests to protect
But as to the evidences OF "militar-

about miiitarism before. We. had n
civil war which lasted four years. and
during that time the northern states

THE INTELLIGENcER.
WHEELING, April. 10, 1890.
The Massacre at Apia.

While the full details Of the ambush
ing OF American and British naval
officers and seamen by q force Of Ma
taafa's warriors In Samoa are not Off
cial. they agree with the brief dispatch
from Admiral Kautz. received In Wash
ington. as to the result. The concern
with which the news has been received
in the capitals OF the United States,
Great Britain and Germany Is war
ranted by the circumstances.
1t Is unfortunate the news comes at
time when an arrangement was be-
ing made for settlement OF the ques-
ton at issue by the three governments.
The situation is especially embarrass-
Ing for Germany, that government
realizing that the conduct of'its rep
resentatives In Samoa has been largely
the cause of the trouble.
In the advices from Apia there ap-
pears recital of n significant incident,
which illustrates the regard the Amer
lean and British naval officers have for
the attitude of the German consul In
his support of Mataafa, whose followers
are In rebellion. The consul! referring
to the recent decree of the supreme
court. and the native practices of be-
heading their enemies. asked II the
British and American Christian gov
ernments approved of the decree and
the inhuman practices Admiral kautz
replied suggestively that had the Ger
man consul upheld the supreme court
decree there would have been no blood-
shed; but that the custom of mutiation
was an old Samoan one. but was first
known to the world when the heads of
brave German soldiers were cut off by
the barbarous chief Mataafa, whom the
Samoan representative of the great
Christian nation of Germany was now
supporting
The expressions of German diplomats
are of friendly nature. and expressive
of regret at the unfortunate incident
now reported. The British ambassador
at Washington does not apprehend a
failure Of present arrangements, while
the government at Washington is al
ways ready for publication, and it Is
hoped that nothing more serious than
diplomatic contest win occur.

Baseless Sensation.

Some sensational newspaper cores
pondents In this city are sending
abroad to outside papers dispatches re-
garding the street car strike. which not
only misrepresent the situation. but
bring discredit upon the city and the
parties concerned In the strike. The
fakir who sent 4 special to a Pitts
burgh morning paper Of yesterday.
which induced 1t to use startling head
lines describing a worse state Of affairs
here than exists, is one of this class.
The statement was made In the dis
patch to the effect that It was gen.
orally credited In the city that "the I'M
ported Chicago men who have taken
the place Of strikers are Pinkertons."
This simple statement. which had no
foundation, induced the Pittsburgh
pape.. to place over an otherwise truth
full dispatch heavy headlines announc-
ing: "Pinkertons in Wheeling-Detec-
tives Said to Have Taken Strikers
Places" 1t was the only falschood in
the dispatch. consisting OF but four
lines. and yet was grasped at for n
sensation by the headline writer.
The situation Of the strike was bad
enough without that piece Of gratuitous
and lncitive mlslnformatlon being sent
to newspaper that circulates some-
what extensively here and elsewhere.
Such baseless rumor given clrcula-
ton by newspaper. is not calculated
for good purpose. Plnkerton detec-
tives are not taking the places OF the
striking motormen and conductors on
the street cars OF Wheeling. There Is
no need for them to do SO.
