Colima, Mexico, special: An earthquake

PROBLEM FOR sOCIOLoGIsTS
a Chicago University Professor Says He
reGity and Not Whisky is Responsible
for Kentucky Killings

Chicago special: Dr.. Francis w. Shep-
ardson, professor of history in the Uni
versity of Chicago, believes that there is
some sociological reason why Kentuck-
ians fight so much about politics and 9TH
er matters. "They do not fight because
OF the bad effects of Kentucky whisky"
he declares, for that is to be had in 9TH
er places. There is nothing peculiar In
the climate or soil which leads them to
slay each other. In my opinion there IS
some inherent sociological reason for this
and it is a great problem for sociologists
to solve. I am inclined to believe that
the trait comes from the old Virginia
blood and is a continuation of the old sys-
TENS in vogue when Hamilton and his son
were slain in duels.'

BRYAN EXPLAINS.
More Fully Defines His Views on ExUen
sion and Expansion.

Kansas City. Mo-. special: W. J. Bryan
passed through Kansas City Saturday
morning Asked about his Minneapolis
interview, in which he was reported as
having expressed views favoring expan-
SIGN, Mr. Bryan said:
Il have for one year been discussing
imperialism, and 1 have tried to distin-
guish between such an extension of the
nations limits as would not change the
character of the government and an ex-
pansion which converts a homogeneous
republic into a heterogeneous empire.
When the annexation of any given terri
tory is under consideration the question
is, first, whether the people want to, come
in. and. second. whether the people are
capable of sharing in the government and
destiny of this nation. I believe
there are people capable Of governing
themselves and that the Filipinos should
be allowed to govern themselves, but
do not think they are sufficiently adj
vanced to share with us in the govern
ment of the nation. If the Philippine ISL
ands are annexed the people there must
be either citizens or subjects. 1 am not
willing to admit them as citizens, and do
not believe that republic can have sub
jects, therefore, want this nation to give
them independence and then protect them
from outside interference. Each proposed
annexation must be considered on its own
merits, but in considering these merits
the condition of the people should have
more weight than geographical position
or commercial advantage"

in which he also discussed the Philippine
question. Tie text of his argument was
a resolution introduced by him declaring
that the provisions of the Constitution do
not, unaided by act of Congress, extend
over Puerto Rico and the Philippines
that the United States take sovereignty
over Puerto Rico and the Philippines un-
restrained by the provisions of the Con-
stitution; and that the successful dis
charge of this duty demands the estab-
lishment of a separate department of the
government to take charge of all outlying

court, developed in him a deep and ar.
dent appreciation of the institutions
of his country, and a lofty pride and
glory in his country's flag.
Mr.. Phelps was not popular man in
the vulgar sense of popularity. He was
a man of high refinement of taste and
character, man of infinite charm OF
discourse, of clearest and most felic-
itous diction. In his profession he
reached the imperial heights held by
the immortal few. A legal argument
by Mr.. Phelps was invested wi b
charms even to the lay listener, for the
flashes of an original wit and the CLEAN
of bright humor enlivened his dis
course even on the most abstruse Of
subjects.

Death of L. j. Phelps.

The announcement of the failing
physical condition of Mr.. Phelps was
speedily followed by the tidings of his
death. Mr.. Phelps was one Of the men
who has illustrated, in an eminent de-
gree, in later times, the truth of the
great and familiar fact respecting Yer
mont's chief product. In later years,
too, Vermont has been somewhat
prouder of Mr.. Phelps than during the
times of his earlier career. Mr.. Cleve-
land did one notable thing during each
of his two terms in the presidency. In
the first, he rose to the full height of
his duty to the country in selecting for
the Office of minister at the court of st.
James this Vermont lawyer, Edward j.
Phelps. Mr.. Phelps supreme fitness
for the Office gained instant recognition.
The appointment was popular with the
country at large but the partisan Demo-
cracy never forgave the President for
coming to rock-ribbed Republican Ver-
mont to find the man for the highest
place in the country's foreign service.
This appointment was no less felicit-
Gus for Mr.. Phelps himself. He had
been charged with lack of sympathy
for anything American. Pride in his
country, it had been said, was not
