most important questions before the

adopted by the conference today. preach

bishops with no limit on the number Of
years pastor may serve one congrega-

all the trusts, all the jobbers and spec

namely, the proclamation of the SUI

of customs duties is made Is per cent.
of the Dingley schedules instead of 2s
per cent. 1t does not matter that a
period of two years is set for the op
Grafton of this tariff, instead Of making
it perpetual. 1t does not matter that
the revenues thus obtained are to be
used to pay the charges of government
in Porto Rico. None of these things
count against.the fact that this law as
sumes to set congress above the con-
stitution. This is the worst feature of
the whole business. 1t alleges the
right of congress to go outside the con-
stitution, the creature to dominate its
creator. 1t asserts the right of con-
gress to erect a tariff wall against
trade between parts of the territory OF
the United States.-Boston Post.

PerversiOn of Patriotism and Loss Ot
Political Sagacity and
V~eracity.

Prof. Joseph II. Crooker, of Ann Ar
Dor, Mich, in a review of the Philip.
pine situation, published in the
Springfield Republican, refers to the
poison of Imperialism ~engendered by
our falling away from first principles,
thus:
Among the many bad things bound up
with this unfortunate business none is
worse than the degradation of America,
sure to follow in more ways than one, IL
we persist in the course that we are now
following. No stronger or sadder proof Of
the unwise and harmful character of this
policy Is needed than the fact that its de-
tenders are led so quickly to part company
with sober argument and truthful state
ment and rush into virulent abuse and de-
ceptive sophistries. Who would have be-
lieved two yesrs ago that any sane man
would have appealed to Washington in
support of a policy so abhorrent to the IA
Their Of his country? What ignoble unver-
acity in twisting his words into the APP
prevail of foreign conquest! Who would
have thought it possible that scholars and
statesmen would SO soon become mere
jugglers with words, pretending that our
previous territorial expansion furnishes
analogy inc warrant for q colonial sys-
tenn far across the ocean. entered upon by
warfare and maintained by congress with
out constitutional safeguards! These facts
show how virulent e poison is at work
upon the national mind. We have here al
ready a perversion of patriotism and a
loss of political sagacity and veracity.
1T Is bad enough to hear men exclaim:
There is money in it and that is suf-
fcient'-but a national venture that leads
men to scott at the declaration of indie
pendence. to ridicule the constitution as
outgrown, to denounce the wisdom of the
fathers as foolishness, and to declare that
American glory dates from Manila bay.
Is there not something ominous in such
talk? If a brief experience in the eXpan-
sion of America that SCOTS at American
principles produces such results, is it not
time to sound the alarm? If the defense
of a policy compels men to take such posi-
tons, there is something infinitely danger

1t Looks Suspicious.
The interstate commerce commits
sion has been distinguishing itself by
actively lobbying for the passage of a
bill, which will largely increase it's
powers. This bill has not attracted
much attention, but it is regarded as
rather a suspicious feature that cer-
tain railroad interests are also urging
it. There is more than a hint hat the
railway combinations think they see a
chance to control the interstate COM
merce commission completely, if the
existing inocuous law can be amended
in certain directions. But with their
usual shrewdness the surface argu-
ment is put the other way. The pres
ent republican congress, not only is
doing nothing to discourage combina-
tons and trusts, but is actively pro-
noting legislation which will give them
more power.
The Ship Subsidy Bill.
The senate republicans are insisting
that the ship subsidy bill must be

and can probably pass the measure,
but the democrats are politely but
firmly suggesting that the ship subsidy

Philippine bill and some other meas.
