HAS A PRECEDENT.

In utter forgetfulness of its own
attempt to sell out to the Repub1i-
can party, the Record Of this place
has worked itself UP to fever of
righteous indignation over the fact
that it suspects the Silver City Ay-
atanche and Delamar Nugget of
having committed the ofense it was
only prevented from committing by
the fact that the Republican party
did not consider it worth the price
for which it offered to prostitute it
self. If the AValanche and Nngget
changed the political complexion of
their papers for a consideration,
such an act could not be justified
on high moral grounds. But as
the publishing of a newspaper is
business proposition we can see no
great wrong in putting it upon
paying basis, especially after so EN-
inent a newspaper publisher as the
editor of the Caldwell Record has
established that precedent.

RESPECTFULLY SUGGESTED.

In its last issue the Caldwell
Record suggests that the Repub1i-
can party might want to try an ex-
pertinent with an alcoholic cure
discovered by a Connecticut man.
We suggest to the Record that
throwing stones by people who live
III glass houses is rather a danger
Gus diversion. A little of that same
cure might be tried with advantage
on some of the Democratic candi-
dates and if the party is not in
formed as to which candidates are
most in need of it, we would be
pleased to supply the information
confdentially as it is not our pur-
pose to openly criticise the private
conduct OF morals of any candidate.
We might suggest though that an
editor who refuses to publish con-
vent1on call for the Prohibition
party has some of the symptoms
of the alco holic habit. How
ever, this is not a profitable line of
political discussion; this campaign
should be fought out on the princi-
pies involved and the public acts of
men in official positions. In gen
eral, we believe that it is a good
policy to credit the representatives
OF every party with that degree of
moral virtue which entities them
to respect. If though, the Demo
Gratis insist on a policy of mud sling
ing with a view of blackening pri-
vate character of the Republican

DEMOCRATIC EXPANSION,

In his speech to the Democratic
Club last Saturday night, Mr..
Bashor sought to make a telling
point by explaining the Democratic
policy of expansion. He said that
the way the Democrats, from Jeff
erson's time down, had expanded
was this Whenever outlying terri
tory was secured, either by pur-
chase or conquest, it was with the
object of forming it into Territories
and States. He explained that as
soon as a new piece of territory was
acquired, it was carved into a Terri
tory with a Territorial form of gov
ernment and later, admitted as a
full fedged State.
The idea that he sought to con-
ey was that the Democrats never

TOVVNE AND DUBOIS.

The Honorable Chas. E. Towne
who came very near being the Pop
ulist candidate for Vice President
will be here Monday as the chief
representative of the Democratic
party in Idaho. He is to speak at
the opera house at o'clock in the
afternoon and will be accompanied
by ex-senator Dubois, the chief
native exponent of Democracy.
We hope that the people of this VII
cinity will all turn out to hear what
these gentlemen have to say. Mr..
Towne is regarded as one of the
ablest speakers in the United States
and after he has concluded his re-
marks there will be nothing more
to be said in favor of the Demo-
cratic party. Therefore those who
go to hear him will be forever con-
vinced or come away hopelessly
Republican.
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1900-09-08

expanded except for the purpose of
creating out of the new territory,
States of the Union. Now that is
all right; but Mr.. Bashor did not
tell us what became of the native
population crowded out of this
acquired territory. He did not
tell us that as the population crowd
ed out ofthe thirteen original States
drifted into the Northwest Terrific
ry, the native inhabitants Of that
territory were driven still farther
west, and that in no instance was a
Territory formed until there were
in that territory sufficient mum
Der of American citizens to main
tain a government.
If during the period of Demo
cratic expansion, the Indians upon
the acquired territory had been Civ
en- the rights and powers of self
government as is now asked for the
Filipinos, then the case would have
been parallel; but to this day there
has never been a Territorial gov
eminent established in any terri
tory of the United States until
American citizens had established
themselves there as residents in suf-
hcient numbers to completely dom
mate the natives.
Republican expansion will no
doubt follow generally along the
same line that Jefersonian expan-
sion did. When in the course of
century or two, there are sufi-
cient number of American citizens
in the Philippine Islands to war
rant the organization of Territor-
ial form of government, the same
as all the Territories heretofore
have enjoyed, then Territories will
be formed in the Philippines, and
eventually these Territories will be
admitted as States. What in the
mean time will have become of the
natives no one can toretell. IF fthey
show capacity for civilization and
Republican form of government
they will probably have become
loyal, patriotic and intelligent citi-
zens of the Republic. But if they
should prove to be of the same
character as the natives of North
America they will probably go the
same way. No doubt our Demo
cratic friends will criticise the Re-
publicans for this prospective ami
hilation of the natives of the Phil
ippines; but as Thomas Jefferson
himself began the determination of
the North American Indian and as
he is the de1ni-god of Democracy,
we trust that in any censure the
Democrats may make of the Re-
publicans, they will always bear in
mind Jeferson's example.

In his Topeka speech of accept
ance Mr.. Bryan neglected to allude
to the manner in which his North
Carolina Democratic supporters put
on their red shirts and beat his
North Carolina Populist friends out
of the recent election. Mr.. Bryan
understands that the less his friends
know of each other the better it
will be for him.

authority of the United States is to

sons and property of the people of
the Islands and for the confirmation
OF all their private rights and rela-
TONS" Now, where is the parallel
that Mr., Bashor attempted to es-
tablish. There is none, absolutely
none.

BASHOR'S PARALLEL.

Mr.. Bashor in his address last
Saturday night said that the situa-
ton in the Philippine Islands upon
the surrender of the Spanish fleet
to Commodore Dewey was similar
to the situation in the colonies when
CORVALLIS surrendered to Washing
ton. His theory was that Lafay-
cite stood in the same relation to
the colonies that Dewey did to the
Filipinos. Then he drew a para1-
lei. Suppose, said he, that upon
the surrender of Cornwa1lis treaty
had been negotiated between France
and England, and suppose England
had ceded the colonies to France
tor $40, 900, and suppose that
when Washington had undertaken
to set up his government, Lafayette
had said, "Ho1d on George; you
can't do that thing. These colon
les now belong to France and
France will govern them as she
sees, fit" Then. said Mr.. Bashor,
that would be the same thing that
the United States is attempting to
DO IN the Philippines. His idea
was that Commodore Dewey had
been sent to Manila to aid the Fill
plnos in securing their indepen-
dence of Spain. The easiest way
TO explode Mr.. Bashor's fa1lacy is
to read history. When the facts
are honestly stated, it will at once
De clear that there is not the slight
est parallel in the cases in point.
10 begin with, when Lafayette
came first to this country, he came
as military adventurer against
the advice of his friends and rela-
lives and in the face of a forbidding
order from his king. When he
came the second time, France had
formally recognized the Republic
and had diplomatic representatives
at the capital of the United States
Government. Before the surrender
OF CORVALLIS there was an open
alliance between France and the
United States, and Lafayette was a
major general in the United States
army while George Washington
was lieutenant general and vice
admiral of France. These were the
relations existing between France
and the United Stares when Lord
CORVALLIS surrendered. Now, let
us look at the Philippine situation
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1900-09-08

Never before in the history of
Presidential campaigns have the
supporters of a candidate been ask
ed to believe that the platform
means the reverse of what it says.
The Democrats argue that Bryan
will not do anything to advance
the cause of silver, as he has prom
ised to do. They are also being
convinced that he would not retire
the army from the Philippines as
he has promised. Such an anoma-
lous condition should not beget
confidence.
