The action OF Archbishop Chspells, the
Pspal delegate to the Philippines, In re-
gard to the controversies between tbs
native priests of the islands and the friars
may have a far reaching effect. On
doubtedly the original uprising of the
natives against the Spanish was directed
more at the priesthood than at the OWL
government; and we have Presidents
Sohurman's authority for declaring that
the existing instruction IL propagsted
largely by the feeling that the Americans
will stand by the frlars and protect them
In their vast holdings Of real estate. II
Archbishop Chappelle can reconcile the
natives to the friars or can induce the
latter to sbate some Of their claims, he
will do much toward bringing about q
permanent peace. But II he sides with
the broth erhood and sustsins their claims
to their full extent his mission IL likely
TO make matters worse.

GOLDwIN SMITHS WARMING
(Chioago Inter- Ocean.

Frederic Harris IN, In his ''opsn letter"
to Lord Salisbury, just before the OPEN
ing OF the Transvaal war, plainly stated
the peril to which that war would sx-
pose the British empire This warniI 6

While regretting that, whntsver may
be the result, tho effect Of the war will
b, to fmplant in the breast Of the Boer
inextinguishable hatred Of Great Brit
ain," the eminent Anglo Canadian
historian sees u still greater danger Inn
pending over the empire. He says the
oniy rsdesming feature OF the present
conflict is "that ID really sounds the
death .knsll Of, imperial federation, mas
oh as no colony would bs found to
unite In q political scheme which would
put II at the mercy Of every gust OF Him
formed passion that might for . moment
agitAte the central power"
In these words tbs Canadian puhliolst
puts his finger upon the weakest spot 10
the dazzling scheme Of imperial fedora
tion which has taken such hold upon
English, Canadian, and Australian I'm
sgination since ths Queens jubilee.
Can adian and Australian writers have
vled with one another OF late In exaiting
the greatness of EnRland's "worid EN-
tralisn, has inst published the 1rst vol.
ume Of q took showing How England
Saved Europe In the twenty years Of the
great Napoleonio struggle. Professedly
and avowedly he has written bis history
to inculcate sreatsr psida In English
achievement, and consequently In the
Briti,h empire, amorg Austraiians and
English coionists In general, by dwelling
upon the gigantic efforts put forth by
England against France 100 years ago and
the glory achieved by Wellington and by
Nelson.
Canadian statesmen and writers during
the last two or thre3 years have given
utterance to similsr sentiments, and
Canada has gone even further and, by
granting preferential trade privileges to
the mother country, has given practical
demonstration OF devotion to imperial
/ interests.
But all such sentimental talk and such
political aSita ton have received rude
answer 10 ths repulse of British arms BY
handful Of Beers in South Afrioa. The
Dutch freemen have already won the
admiration and sympathy OF the world,
as even Goodwin Smith, staunch English.
man that he is, admits In this statement.
Yet the stand which this little farmer
commonwealth has made for Its indie
pendeBor against the banded forces OF a
worldwide empire, backed BY the diplo-
niatio encouragement Of great powers,
including the American republic, has
hardly parallel In history.
In other words, the unprovoked and
IN justitiabIe war that England at the
instance Of Cham berlain and Rhodes IL
now wagina against the two South Afrt-
can republics. has aroused English colo
nists generally to the greedy reality be-
hind their splendid dream. That even
an ultra-loyal Englisbman like Goodwin
Smith has been impellsd to lift his voioa
in protest Is the best es idencs Of the full
