PIunder and Morality,

Moral disintegTatIon is a process
OF infinitely slow stages. Often We
find ourselves face to face with sit
uations from which we would once
have recoiled with shuddering, and
proffer solutions for problems
which would once have brought
the blush OF shame to our cheeks.
Once false principles are admitted,
however, to our souls, the growth
OF evil IS rapid. Facile aesceNJuS
AVeyRi
Professor Emery OF Bowdoin ex-
presses a view which is astonish-
inglY current in the United States
at the present time-that if, as he
asserts, we have seized the Philip
pines in accordance with the rec
ognized law Of nations, there can
be nothing wrong about it. In
other words, he holds that a rule
oi conduct which has been estab-
lished by a conspiracy OF strong
nations for the purpose Of grstiiv-
ing the predatory purposes at the
expense of weak ones becomes vir-
tually moral law 10 which nobody
is at liberty to object. If ten na-
tions have plotted and consplred
to plunder he holds that the fact
that they have so agreed justihes
any nation in plundering. We
have not always held this doctrine.
When, after the Civil War, it was
suggested that Canada be con-
veyed to the United States in set
Element OF the Alabama Claims, the
British rrinister replied to Secre-
tary Fish that there was no objec-
ton to 1t, except that England
coulG not transfer Canada without
the consent Of its inhabitants.
Sumner said at that time:
He knows our country little, and
little also OF that great liberty OF ours,
who supposes that we could receive
such a transfer. On each side there IS
impossibility. Territory may be con.
Veyed, but not the people"
When the United States seri-
ouslY thought OF purcha sing the
Domingo President Grant sent
ont agents to ascertain whether the
people desired the transfers to take
place. Seward made the transfer
OF St. Thomas and San
OF St. Thomas contingent on the
consent ofits inhabitants. Indeed |
1t is only year and a half since |
President Mckinley himself de-
clared "forcible annexation" to be
criminal aggression" and the
American people agreed with him.
And they have not changed their
minds.

The Cincinnati volks,reund

The Cincinnati Nolks1reund
compliments the SENTINEL on its
work in behalf OF the brewers. II
says: Although the brewers
themselves have given up all hope
to reduce the onerous war tax on
beer IN this session, the WASHING
TON SENTINEL continues to keep up
the fight in their behalf. The
United States Brewers Associa-
tion have now concluded to again
take up their fight for a reduction.
Should the efforts OF this organiza-
tion be crowned with success, it
will be due to the indeiatigable
work OF Louis Schade, who has so
persistently kept up the agitation
in their behalf.

No sympathy for Republics.

BY a majority Of nine, on light
vote, the Senate last Monday re-
fused to take up Tor consideration
a resolution OF sy mPathY with the
Boer Republics.
This is the first time in the his
tory OF our Republic that either
house Of Congress has refused to
express the sympathy which
Washington proclaimed that he
instinctIvely felt with all people
struggling for their freedom, and
which our early statesmen took
every occasion to avow.
To this shameful qualification
has our imperial nightmare driven
US! The Great Republic does not
dare or care to express its sYmpa-
thy with little republics fighting
braYelY against extinction!

CONDEMNED FOOD sTUFFs.
The Quarterly Report of Keeper of the Market
J. N. McRary.

At the meeting of the board of alder
men last night, Keeper of the Market }.
N. Mcary submitted his report setting
forth the action taken by him in regard to
meats, vegetables unfit for food, but Of
fered for sale on the market
The report shows that for the three
months from July LIST, 1900, to Septem-
Der 30th 1900, the following meats were
condemned:
Beef, 3S2 pounds; sausage, 1885, mutton,
115 pounds; pork, 13 pounds; l hog, COW,
10 cows heads, beef tongues, s sets of
eef-brains; two kegs of fish and 800
punches of fish; 2S chickens, and sc dozen
of eggs.
Vegetables were condemned during the
quarter as follows:
Snaps, II quars. blackberries, 10 quarts
grapes, 10 quarts; plums, 3 quarts; wa
termelons, 48, and cantaloupes, CO.
During the quarter 126 orders were ia
ken from the order box and distributed,
and II arrests were made in the mar
ket.
There could be no stronger comment
than the above report on the necessity
for rigid municipal inspection of all fresh
meats and vegetables offered for sale.
Nothing is more deleterious to health or
dangerous to life than are decaying meats
and vegetables, yet such are often offered
for sale and are sold unless the law in
terferes to stop it.
Mr.. McRary has done his duty at all
times in this matter and for it he de-
serves the thanks OF all patrons OF the
market.
