Senator Platt and few other gentle
men made for him. Their policy and
not his made him president. Having
surrendered himself once he has had
to yield to the influence of other peo-
pie ever since.h
The truth of these statements will
not benied by any friend of the presi-
dent, no matter how dense his partisan
ship. He yielded to Hanna in sstaking
a step backward" on the civil service
law and throwing down the bars so as
to let in several thousand political
workers for the boss of the Republican
party to the Offices as rewards for
partisan service. He yielded to the
malevolent temptations of clique of
politicians in the service of the syndi-
Gates and plunged into war in the
Philippines which he had previously
stigmatized as ssoriminal aggression. "
He gave way to the commands of the
trusts and insisted on the passage of
a law taxing the products of pauperized
Porto Rico after declaring in message
that sit IS our plain duty" to give the
Porto Ricans free trade.
His whole public career since he be-
came president is series of political
somersaults executed at the command
of the malign influences that control
him. Such a man is not a president
except in name. He is only a plant
instrument doing the bidding of selfish
commercialists and scheming politi-

A Striking Contrast.

Congressman Jacob Rupert of New
York in a recent interview draws a
sharp contrast between the two presi-
Dental candidates on the score of their
relative consistency in politics.
81 fully recognize" he said, ''the
reasons that impelled Mr.. Bryan to
insist upon the reaffirmation of the
silver plank in the Chicago platform.
They were good reasons and do credit
to his sincerity and manhood. That
act shows him to be a statesman and
not a trucking politician. He was
quite willing to stake his nomination
upon an Endorsement of his views in
'e6. What a contrast that presents to
Major Mckinley in the same year. He
was confessed bimetallist. but he was
glad to get the presidential nomination
by accepting any old platform that

Unreliability.

State Superintendent of Schools Car
rington scores a telling point when he
calls the attention of the Gtobe-Deno-
crat to the fact that the permanent
school funds OF several other States are
invested in a manner similar to that of
Missouri.
In Wisconsin, Mr.. Darlington shows
the system is exactly the same, the
fund being secured by certificate of
Indebtedness from the State and the
interest being paid from the State
Treasury. In Ohio the school fund
constitutes what is termed the "Irre-
ducible State Debt" In Kentucky it
is known as an .'Unredeemable State
Bond" and in California as a Bond
Held in Trust for School Fund"
Missouri voters are now fully awake
to the fact that the Globe Democrat has
not hesitated to abandon the truth in
its partisan eagerness to injnre the
Democratic party. Neither has it re-
Trained from injuring the credit of the
State of Missouri.
Thus far it has not presented one
valid fact to sustain its charge that the
school fund has been s.looted' by the
Democratic party and that the State
itself was bankrupt. The sole facts In
evidence are that the Missouri School
Fund is the biggest and most wisely
invested In the Union, and that Missou-
ri herself is practically free of debt
and enjoying the lowest tax-rate in the
Union.
The o6e-DemocrGt must of necessity
abide by the results of its campaign of
slander and misrepresentation. 1t has
succeeded only in discreditiug its own
party and proving its own utter unre-
liability as newpaper. This is a PEN
atty that never tails to attach TO such
a course, The party liar. like all
other liars, is sure to be found out ulti-
mately and thereafter to be entirely

Is 1t a Pledge?

AS Governor Stephens clearly points
out. the present investment of the State
School Fund is the only plan by which,
under the Constitution and with due re-
gard to the welfare of education, could
have been followed.
Under the Constitution the fund
could be invested in United States
bonds, but it would net only about 2
per cent. interest. The welfare of
education would not be properly con-
sidered.
Investment in Missouri State bonds
is impracticable, since the bonds are
already retired except very small
amount.
There is no essential difference in
character or value between Missouri
bonds and the certificates in which the
fund is now invested. The fund is as
securely invested as if in State bonds,
is in permanent form and bears high
rate of interest for the benefit of the
schools.
By the Constitution the State govern
ment is expressly forbidden to invest
the fund in any securities except United
States bonds or Missouri State bonds.
Obviously, any course except that
which has been pursued, all parties ap-
proving, would haye been liable to Sc
we're and just criticism. When the
rapid reduction of the State bonded
debt made any settled investment in
these impossible, the choice left was
United States bonds or the present
form.
Will the Globe Democrat, or that 9TH
er Anauias, Joseph Flory, contend that
the fund should be invested in United
States bonds yielding something like 2
per cent? Will Mr.. Flory or the
Globe Democrat pledge the Republican
party, if placed in charge of the legis-
lative and executive branches of the
State Government, to a repeal of ex-
listing legislation and an invest of the
School Fund in United States bonds?
If that pledge is not forthcoming, all
this assertion of s'pillage' is a con-
fessed lie. It is a confessed lie as foul,
as malignant, as slanderish as lie
ever was. It viciously attacks the
commonwealth where injury before the
worlds opinion can most easily be in
ficted-public education.
If the pledge is made by Flory and
the Globe-Democrat, they will show
that the Republican party OF Missouri
is incapable of sound administration.
If it is not made they show that the
Republican party of Missouri is reck-
lessly hostile to the people of the State
and ready, from a spirit of malicious
mischief, to destroy Missouri's reputa-
tiop before the nation and the world.

 The Los Angeles Herald says: Word comes from San Pedro that Contractor Heldmaler, who is building the big breakwater, is making satisfactory pro- gress in the work about which dis couraging reports have of late been current. Mir. Mir. Heldmaler has taken charge of the work personally and has averaged since February l two barge loads of rock daily. Before that time about the same number were dumped weekly. The contractor is expected to dump about 10000 tons of stone in March and then to keep an average of from 30, 900 to 5000 tons monthly un- til he catches up with the specified ti0ns.
 The recent publicity given to the very bad condition of Havana prisons has revived the talk eff the project to convert the fortress of La Cabana," across the harbor from the city, into a great prison for the Island of Cuba, making it a state peniten tiary. The project originated during General Brooke's administration, and, plans have been made by the engineer corps for carrying 1t out. The whole mat ter is now m the hands of General Wood. and awaits his decision. It is thought by some that the work can be done for about sl25, 600, but this is be- lieved by others to be but commence ment of the expense that would be in- cured in converting the ancient pile of masonry into a modern prison, and that before the task was accomplished satisfactorily it would take $500, 600.
 Captain Frank NJ. Wells, chaplain of the First regiment of volunteers, who has just returned from the Philippine Islands, spoke in Garfield memorial church, Washington, D. C., under the auspices of the W. C. T. U., on the liquor question in the Philippines. He says that since the Americans took Manila 400 places where li9uor is sold had sprung up in there, while before the Americans came to the islands Manila had only three saloons. The FfIipinos, he asserted, spoke well of the American soldiers, save that they said the Americans were bad people" when they had drunk too much liquor. Whisky, he said, was sold in the bar racks at HOilo, not over l5 feet from his headquarters, until he put an end to it by complaining to the colonel and pro vost marshal. The transport Indiana, on which he had returned to the United States, he characterized as whisky transport" and he said that he had un- successfully attempted to have the sale of liquors on transports stopped while in the Philippines.

The strects of London are in fearful condition from the snow and sleet and many pedestrians have suffered fractured limbs from fall. ing on the pavements.

 It is wonderful commentary on the growth of tile United States, whose population is rapidly nearing s0,000,' 900, that Richard w. Thompson, who died at Terre Haute, Indiana, last Thursday, had seen all of the presi' dents of the American republic with the exception Washington and Adams. Thus the history of the great. est nation on the globe has been com. prised almost within the lifetime oi one man.
 The house committee on public lands has acted favorably on bill by Rep sentative Mondell allowing second homestead t one who has commuted or has lost his homestead without a re- linquishment for value. The commit tee also heard Colonel Buffalo Jones in favor of the bill for buffalo reser vation in New Mexico. He stated that the American buffalo was almost extinct, the entire number the world over being about 300 hundred or 400.
 Applications for positions under the Philippine commission are pouring in upon Judge William H. Taft. His desk was covered with letters from Cincin- natians and outside people asking some kind of appointment from him when he takes charge as president of the Philippine commission. There are already nearly 100 applications for pri- vate secretary A number want to be secretary to the commission. Many stenographers want clerkships and several have applied for positions as messengers and cooks.
 The second anniversary of the de- struction of the United States battle ship Maine was suitably observed at Havana on the 18th. Several hun dred Americans went out to the wreck over which the United States flag was flying at half mast. Every available piece of wreckage above the water was banked with laurels. Prayers were offered by Dr. McGee of the Episcopal church and Father Jones of the Cath olic church. At the church of Merced, the municipality had arranged for inn posing memorial services, which were attended by Governor-G General Wood and other civic and military officers.
