McKINLEY,s COLONIES.

Last February, President Mckinley,
in speaking of his attitude toward our
Insular Possessions" used these words,
Congress is not bound by the limita-
lions of the Constitution when it en-
tiers upon the task Of legislating for our
colonies"
Then, if this be true, Congress may
refuse the inhabitants Of these colonies
the right of trial by jury, the right of
free speech, and the right of peaceable
assembly and of petition.
Did George Ill, King of England,
when grinding down his American col
onies ever utter words more despotic
or more aggressive than those employ
ed by William Mckinley, when he de-
clares that Congress can legislate be-
yond the limits of cur Constitution?
1t is clearly the purpose of Mark
Hanna and other Republican leaders
to entirely ignore our Constitution, and
to rule Porto Rico and the Philippines
without any organic law or restraint of
any kind.
Does any thinking man believe that
President Mckinley, or any other man,
can WELD absolute power without
abusing it?
Recent developments in the examina-
tion OF the postal affairs in Cuba do
not warrant this belief, especially as
relates to the Mckinley administra-
tion.

tered broadcast while their speakers
rant and rave almost without hind

a caily menace to those in authority,
even though they rule by the will of

The life of President and King is alike
unsafe and insecure. Some vigorous
International action will soon have to
be undertaken in this regard.

It is q singular fact that the reign
of every queen in modern times has
been attended by a wonderful advance
in the material. political. literary and
even military progress Of her country.
The reign Of Catherine the Great Of
Russia Witnessed the widest extension
of the Russian empire that had been
known up to her time. and the greater
part Of the Russian couqucsts were ac-
complished during the time OF the
other Russian empresses. The reign Of
Maria Theresa was period Of pros
perity for Austria-llungnry. in spite
Of the Seven Years war. while the

A silent Rebuke.

A curly-haired small boy sat in a
 Fourteenth street car just at the time of the day when the ears are most crowded on Thursday afternoon. A wornlookinl' woman, evidently his mother. sat beside him. At Fifteenth street particularly buxom woman of middle age crowded into the car. There was no seat for her and she stood glar- ing at the ooy. Later her displeasure vented itsnlf into words, and she ex- pressed herself freely to the woman who stood next her about women who let their children occupy seats while ladies are standing. The worn woman flushed. but made no move to have the boy surrender his seat. The buxom woman still glared. and still expressed herself with extreme frankness. The boy sat still. At N street the mother rang the bell. As the car stopped she put her arms around the boy and lifted him to his feet, half carrying him to the door.
 Wont you take this seat?" she said to the buxom woman. "l am just talk ing him home from the hospital" And as the car rolled on the buxom woman looked even warmer than the weather warranted Washington Post.
