According to Senator Hoar,
Presidents proclamation to the
Filipinos was toned down by
Otis in order to prevent a revolt.
But the Filipinos got hold of a
copy of the original and it led
them to fight.
Coils p. Huntington, who has
fought the Nicaraguan canal bit
terly for years, is now said to
favor it. The explanation is to
be found in the ship subsidy bill
and in the fact that Mr.. Hunting
ton has gone into the ship build
ing business.
Governor Taylor of Kentucky,
is said to contemplate dissolving
the Legislature as a mob. Sup
pose the President should take
similar action regard to congress.
There is a string tied to Lord
Salisbury's reply as to the flour.
The question as to whether pro-
visions are intended for the
enemy's forces is to be left to
the prize courts with all the in
finite possibilities of delay.
1t is asserted, apparently on
good authority, that the Presi-
dent has agreed to grant 500, 000,-
900 worth of real estate in the
Philippines to the Catholic
church in consideration of the
abandonment of it's claim to the
rest of the country. Mckinley
is a good thing.
Now Chicago has the cheek to
assert that the drinking water of
st. Louis will really be purified
by mixing it with the Lake City's
sewerage.
Come to think of it, there can
be no doubt that any effort to alb
breviate 1900 will surely come to
naught.
One of Senator Clark's (of
Montana) accusers states that
he was bribed in a bathroom. 1t
ought to have been a clean tran
saction.
The only hope against the
trusts lies in the democratic par
ty. The republicans are under
too many obligations to them to
give any relief.
The chief need in Cuba is to
get the people to stop theroizing
and get down to work.
The surplus is worrying the
Treasury department. Why not
abolish it by reducing duties on
some of the protected articles ?
The Montana legislature must
have been very prosperous dur
ing the senatorial campaign if
current tales are to be believed.
All the bills for governing
Porto Rico provide that about
half of the upper chamber of the
legislature shall be appointed by
the President. 1t is not thought
safe to give the Porto Ricans
full control just yet.
A perusal of Senator Bever-
idge's speech explains his reason

the state wants to be represent

right TO be.
If the Government is getting
so much money as to cripple fin
ancial transactions, why not re-

facts regarding the beginning of
the Filipino outbreak ? Have

Hanna says that his position
as senator should carry dignity
with it. So it should.
Slavery and polygamy are
somehow transmitted into ''ben-
evolent assimilation when they
get across the Pacific into Sulu.
The republican party has come

gals. that the Constitution and
the Declaration of Independence

''irridescent Dreams"
Whatever moral justification
Secretary Gage may urge for his
action, he cannot deny that he
has deliberately violated the
laws. But that is nothing, now
a-days, however.
The Tagalog guerrillas are
now reported to have evaded the
troops who we're chasing them
and to have mustered in large
numbers within ten miles of
Manila. Otis accordingly re-
ports that the war is nearly over.
One of the most Objectionable
things in this entire Gage bust
ness has been the finding of a
letter from the Vice President
of the National City bank ad-
dressed to the Secretary, claim
ing favors on account of the
political strength of the director
ate and on account of what was
done in the campaign" The
directors include many men
prominent in the Standard Oil
company and other trusts. There
is of course, no proof that MI.
Gage was biased by this letter
but nevertheless the thing leaves
q bad taste in the mouth.
The whole ship subsidy ques-
ton is saturated with fraud. Re-
Gently Mr.. Richardson of Tenn
essee called attention to the at.
tempt of the republicans to send
through the mails under govern
ment franks arguments by civil
ians in favor of the bill. When
detected, the republicans claimed
''inadvertance." 1t is curious
how republican inadvertence al
ways works in one direction.
Malietoa Tanus, the legally
elected king of Samoa under
British and American guaran-
tees, has been deliberately turned
out OF Office by the tri-partite
commission of which the United
States was a member. Perhaps
1t is just as well that Samoa
should be partitioned in order TO
end the jealousies of the powers
there, but the wishes of the
people should certainly be con
sidered. They undoubtedly
would have been before the pres
ent administration began it's task
of governing inferior races for
their own good and incidentally
for the good Of its own pockets.
The British are disappointed
in US. They thought the entire

this week introducedln Congress
three bills, granting to.his state
so, 900 acres of land in aid of the
State Soldiers and Sailors Home;
providing that the state of Wyo-
ming be permitted to relinquish
to the United States certain
lands heretofore selected and to
select other lands from the pub
lie domain in lieu thereof; and
reimbursing the state of Wyo-
ming for money expended by the
Territory of Wyoming in protect
ing and preserving the Yellow
stone National Park during the
years 1884, 1885 and 1886.
Many bills of interest to the
people of the extreme northwest
were introduced in congress dur
ing the past week. Among those
was one by Representative Jones
of Washington, amending the
laws governing the Mount Ran
Ter National Park and Pacific
Forest Reserve. MI. Cushman
of Washington, introduced a bill
dividing his state into two judic-
ial districts, instead of one, as at
present. He also introduced a
bill directing a survey of Gray's
harbor with a view to dredging a
channel between Aberdeen and
Hoquim. According to a bill in
PRODUCED by Mr.. Foster, of ILL
nois, the salaries of deputy col
lectors at Tacoma and Seattle
are to be fixed by the Secretary
of the Treasury. Mr.. Jones in
troduced a bill appropriating
S175,0 900 for a canvalescent mil
itary hospital at Vancouver bar
racks; also a bill authorizing the
private sale of the unsold lands
of the Umatilla Indian reserva-
ton. The Secretary of the
Treasury has recommended the
passage of the bill extending the
privilege of immediate transpor-
tation of dutiable goods to the
Astoria, Oregon, and a Senate
committee has favorably report
ed a bill granting the same. Sen
ator Mcbride has introduced a
bill referring to the Court of
Claims the claim of the Kathla.

struction of a portage railway at
the Dalles. The building of the

There is one place in America
where the inhabitants are never
called upon to pay taxes. This
is Loud's Island, off the coast of
Maine, near historic Pemaquid.
The island, otherwise known as
Muscongus, was overlooked
when Maine became a state, and
was included in no town or coun-
ty. 1t is said that during the
war the people cast their votes
for a time in the town of Bristol.
until some election officer dis
covered the illegality of the
vote. The island was first set
tied by John Loud, a deserter
from a British man-of-war, and
his great-grandchildren are now
prominent inhabitants. The ed
ucational interests of the people
do not suffer because of there
being no taxes. A school is
maintained by voluntary contri-
buttons, the parents paying four
dollars for each child. The
school term averages about eight
months in the year, and about
eighteen children attend. Catch
ing bait for the fishermen of
Boston, Gloucester, and Port
land is the most profitable occu-
patton of the islanders, but, when
bate is slack in running, thew
turn their attention to clustering
and mackerel -catching.

STOLE FRUIT FROM
GOVERNOR DOLE
John Grilla Sold the Execu-
tive Oranges From
PauOa.

John Grilla, one of the colony of Cali
clans which came to Honolulu about two
years ago, was the victim of a plot of
his own concoction yesterday. He Is
now in the station house charged with
larceny in the second degree. Governor
Dole owns a fine orange orchard In Pauoa
valley. The caretaker is faithful old
Chinese who has been in Mr.. Dole's SER
vice for the last twenty years and is jeal-
Gus of the crop which he reckons up for
the Governor
Grilla also became of the opinion that
the orchard was fine one, and visited
1t often. He plucked some of the best
fruit on several occasions and sold ii
down town. Grilla made one of his visits
yesterday afternoon and while in the act
or disengaging a few oranges was spied
by the old Chinese caretaker. He shouted
TO him to desist. but his only answer was
a stone which Grilla threw at him. The
caretaker went to the house, secured a
three-inch rope and returned to the Place
Were Grilla was leisurely filling his sack
with the Governors oranges. A second
E Chinese appeared upon the scene and
Griila was speeuIy tripped up and the
rope was passed about his wrists behind
his back. few vigorous kicks started
