JEFFERSoNIAN EXPANSION.

A correspondent of the Pittsburg
Post calls attention to the following
clause of the treaty by which Thomas
Jefferson acquired the Louisiana tract:
Art. III. The inhabitants of the ce
ded territory shall be Incorporated in
the Union of the United States. and
admitted as soon as possible, accord
ing TO the principles of the Federal
constitution. to the enjoyment of all
the rights. advantages and immunities
OF citizens of the United States: and
IN the meantime they shall be main
tanned and protected in the free en-
Joyment of their liberty. property and
the religion which they profess,
1t will hardly be contended that this
is expressive of the Mckinley attitude
toward the Filipinos. or that the creed
of Imperialism contemplates any such
outcome as was here expressly set
forth. We hear a great deal about the
sovereignty of the United States. but
nothing of Incorporating the Philip
pines 'in the Union of the United
States" "as soon as possible" or at
any time whatsoever. Not that such n
course is desirable. We don't want the
Filipinos by incorporation or other
wise. The more the American people
see of the Filipino the more they are
convinced that he was not cut out for
an American citizen. But it does not
follow on that account that he is fit
only to be a subject or n corpse. or
that he has no rights that should he
respected. Certain it is that an Impe-
rialistic crusade against the Filipinos
cannot be carried on under the cloak
of Jeffersonan precedent. Jcfersonion
expansion had no place for subjects; it
contemplated citizens only. No amount
of warping can make it look like the
sort of expansion that Mr.. Mckinley
is giving us.

A DISTURBER OF THE PUBLIC
PEACE.

Some days ago The New York Sun
devoted about n half column to prov
ing that Hon. Mark Hanna is n great
statesman and orator. On Thursday
it devoted full column TO an attempt
to prove that Gen. Robert E. Lee was
n traitor. In each instance the Sun
enjoys n unique distinction; in neither
has it a rival. The country has but
one New York Sun: let us take COM
fort that the demand is already amply
supplied.
The Sun made the letter of "An Old
Soldier" which may or may not have
been written in it's office, the occasion
of this latest assault upon the facts of
history and two or three Of the Ten
Commandments. This alleged old SOL
der wrote to the Sun to ask: ''Why
should Robert z. Lee be in the Hall
of Fame? What did he ever do to
make his name famous outside OF be-
ing traitor to his country. We do
not believe that there are n half dozen
newspapers in the country that would
have numbered their columns with an
outburst of spleen so petty and con-
tCihptiOlS do tuS lellCT Ill NueSIlOT. ne
Sun prints it and adds: Our CORES
pondent's summary OF the facts re-
garding Robert E. Lee Is correct" 1t
sums UP the case: at is a weak and
mawkish sentiinentality which puts
the name of Lee among the great COM
manders entitled to the generation of
posterity."
We attach no sort of Importance to
the Hall of Fame or the fact that
therein. That no more adds to his fame
than the Suns splenetic distortion of
facts detracts from it. A majority of
the names on the list of so-called
greatest Americans borrow lustre from
association with the name of Lee and
very few add anything to that name
If 500 years hence the average man
should come across one of these lists
of our great men it is easy to imagine
him asking How did anybody come
to put these fellows on a level with
Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln and
Lee. and who were they anyway"
What matters 1t. therefore, what the
New York Sun, or these Hall OF Fame
judges, say about 1t? Less than no
thing. so far as the name of Lee and
his place in history are concerned.
What does matter is that newspaper
Of some prominence should seek to
keep alive the fires of sectional hate
by methods and for purposes so dis
reputable.
There are various kinds of yellow
journalism. The Sun has become the
yellowest of the lot. It used to be an
exponent of public sentiment, after
fashion; it has become n mere dis
turber Of the public peace. Were 1t
in the South. it would be sent ito the
roads" for thirty days as such.

THE DIFFERENCE.
(Col. Watterson.l

The essential difference between the
Republican party of the present day
and the Democratic party Is that the
Democrats are in favor of civil liberty
and the Republicans are not. 1t was
so from the beginning. Under the
name OF Federalists. the predecessors
of the Republicans of o-day passed the
alien and sedition laws for the destruc-
ton of civil liberty. When the present
Republican party was organized 1t pro-
fessed to be the party of liberty. but
when it got into power its rule was
arbitrary. Secretary Seward boastcd
that he had only to touch a bell to
cause the arrest of any citizen in the
country. and the worst of this was that
1t was true. Men were arrested with
out warrant, without any charge
against them, and imprisoned indefi
nitely without trial. Thousands were
arrested for the purpose of inducing
them to bride their captors to release
them. In those days 1t was dangerous
to he rich. The whole period of re-
construction in the South was full Of
outrages on civil liberty. This con-
tinued in several States until a de-
feated Republican candidate for the
Presidency agreed with certain South
ern States that If they would withdraw
their opposition to his being declared
elected President he would withdraw
the troops and let the South govern
itself. Thus civil liberty in the South
was bought by the sacrifice for the
time of political liberty in the country.
The Republican party is the only party
in the country that ever stole the Presi-
dency. The same party. if it has u
majority in Congress. has Il regular
habit of stealing every four years from
half dozen to a dozen seats belonging
to Democrats, and of giving them to
Republicans. This has nothing to do
with civil liberty. but it is a denial OF
the right of the people to choose their
own representatives. 1t deprives the
district affected of political liberty

NOTES AND OPINIONS.
PHILADELPHIA'S PURCHASED
VOTE
philadelphia Ledger.


The Tax Receiver has announced
that the total sale of poll tax receipts
amounts to 1850, of which only 1897
were sold in the main Office, against
1lS,O4S sold by the deputy collectors in
the several wards. The heavy bust
ness done by the deputy collectors is
due to the fact that the city commit
tees of the political organizations made
their purchases this year from the dep
uties instead of at the tax office.
About $4,000 old tax receipts purchased
last year still hold good, and about
10000 property owners in addition will
have the right to vote. So that in the
coming election over 100000 persons
may exercise the right of franchise in
total of about $50, 900 assessed voters
in the city. Of the ~, 900 or more tax
receipts purchased during this cam
paign, it is estimated that over 60 900
were purchased, not by the voters
themselves. but by the corrupt Repub-
lican machine, and that the Democratic
organization bought about one third as
many. If these figures are measurably
correct. it appears that of the 127 600
tax receipts sold this Fall 10000, or
nearly three fourths were purchased
for the politicut rrTachines, Write iiuss

ION THE FIRING LINE"
(New York Worldly

At Mankato. Mimi. Senator Hanna
exclaimed:
How ridiculous il is to talk of with
drawing the United States from the
place where Mr.. Mckinley has put it,
on the very firing line of nations!
Is not this in the true imperial vein?
William of Germany could hardly have
done ii better. TO put other people
"on the firing line" while they get the
gain and the glory, is the old device of
the war makers.
Mr.. Mckinley in putting the United
States ION the very firing line of ma
tons in the East has already sacri

can soldiers and burdened the taXpay-
ers with n bill of $500, 900 900. And

THE PARAMOUNT ISSUE IN THIS
DISTRICT.

The paramount issue in this Con-
gressional district is the election of Mr..
Maynard. the Democratic nominee.
The election is now only n little over
two weeks off. The time for talk and
loafing has passed and the time for ac-
tive work is at hand.
The district will doubtless give Mr..
Bryan majority without much diff
Guilty. II it does not. we can depend on
the Democrats OF other districts to
carry Virginia for the national ticket.
if we are satisfied TO be that sort OF
Democrat.
The Democrats of other districts are
not going to help elect the Democratic
nominee in this district Nor Is this
an-there are complications the nomi-
nee for Congress will have to meet
that the national ticket escapes. There
is a Labor candidate in the field,
named for the avowed purpose OF de-
feating Mr.. Maynard. Naturally he
will hurt Mr.. Maynard more than Mr..
Wise.
warned the Democrats of this district
against trusting to the Bowden- Wise
feud in Republican ranks to help them
out. 1t would now repeat that warn
ing with emphasis. The so-called Bow
den faction will go TO the polls and
vote for Hon. Richard 4. Wise because
the National Committee has declared
him regular"
congressman ara important this
year. Democrats of this district can't
elect President; they can help TO tie
the hands of Mckinley. If he should
pull through. by sending Democrat
TO Congress. On the contrary. they
might help to tie Mr.. Bryan's hands
by falling to send Democrat TO Con
gress.
The duty of elceting Democrat to
Congress is immediate. practical and
cannot be shirked, or shared with Dem
ocrats outside Of the Second District.
Mr.. Maynard must be elected, and by
n majority so substantial that q par
tisan Elections Committee cannot dis
regard It.
This district has had enough of Con-
gressmen chosen by Republican
Elections Committee in Washington.
This is a good year to make an end
