Hauling Down the Flag.

possession of Alaska by conquest from
natives who wanted independence, but
by purchase from Russia. Neverthe-
less, our flag has been flying there for
about thirty three years. In the words
of President Mckinley. "Who shall
haul it down." President Mckinley
himself, through his Secretary Of State,
has hauled down the American flag on
a considerable strip of that territory.
He has done this at the instance Of
Great Britain. The British flag never
floated over this territory until Mr.. Nc
Kinlsy hauled down the American flag.
When an impartial commission shall
adjudge this territory to be outside the
purchase which the United States made
from Russia it will be time for the

Dewey, believing all the time that the
defeat of Spain by the United States
meant independence, not conquest, for
the Filipinos. 1t was the devillsh lust
Of conquest that made our administra-

AMERICAN WRITES TO FILIPlNos
Correspondence Captured in Luzon Is
Made Public.


Made Public.
Letters and papers belonging to Agul-
naldo, which were captured several
months ago by Gen. Funston, have been
made public by the War Department.
Some,of these documents tend to substan-
tiate the charges that the Filipino lnsur-
gents have received encouragement from
persons in the United States. The most
remarkable letter in the collection Is from
DIR. Montague r. LeversOn, dated Fort
Hamilton, \. Y, July II, 1893, vino de-
scribes himself as a member of the Anti
Imperialist League, and who advises the
FilipinoS to capture some official of high
rank in the service of the United States
and try him for piracy. While it is said
by officials of the administration that
charge of treason might be based on Mr..
Leverson's letter, a Washington CORE
spondent says no legal proceedings will
be instituted.
Dr. Montague r. LeversOn, who wrote
the letter declaring the United States
to be guilty of piracy in its Philippine
policy, is still a resident of Fort HAM
ilton, from which place the missiYe was
dated in 1899. He is 20 years old and
is physician of English birth, but is now
a naturaIized American citizen. DR.. Lev
erson four years ago had an alteration
in the union station at Albany with An
thony Comstock. They later each sued
the other for libel. Each recovered a
verdict of cents.

Democracy Presents a United Front
Against a Common Enemy.
Four years ago Mr.. Bryan, amid
scenes of great excitement and bitter
ness, was suddenly called to party lead
ership. This year he is summoned with
deIiberation and with unanimity to the
same high place. -Four years ago his
nomination was resisted by nearly g.
third of the convention. There were
many bolters from the convention.
There was general dissensions among
Democrats, which led to open rupture
and the assembling of a convention
that put in the field alleged Democratic
opposition candidates. Now mark the
difference. There is no evidence any
where within the organization of pro-
test or opposition. The convention was
unanimous, and it was not forced
unanimity Of elements hiding secret op-
position, but of people who believed in
the man and the cause he represents,
and whose agreement on a unanimous
nomination was the most sincere act
Of their political lives. The Chicago
Chronicle, which four years ago op-
posed Mr.. Bryan, now joining in hearty
and vigorous support Of his election,
says: ''It may be stated with emphasis
that never in the history of the party
has a Presidential candidate been
placed in the field with greater unanim-
ity or with more genuine eordiality on
the part Of his supporters" 1t is plain,
therefore, that Mr.. Bryan has been a
growing man, and impressed himself
upon his party and upon the country.
His energy. his zeal, his sincerity can
not be questioned even by his most i'm
placable foes. He is stronger to-day
