INTEGRAL PARTS, NEVER.

We can never hope to make the Phil
ipplnc islands integral parts OF our I'm
ion. occupied by people OF our race,
with our political and social ideals, as
we have in Florida, Louisiana and Cal
iiornia. Our occupation OF these is
lands will be military and the govern
ment colonial, thus converting our own
institutions from republic, resting up
on manhood suffrage, governed by laws
OF the peoples own making, i'll other
words, governed by the consent of the
governed, to a military empire. Such
changes in the institutions OF nations in
the past have always proven destructive
OF the liberties OF the people. and in the
end. OF their national existence. This
historical fact is we'll expressed by
troude, the historian, in his introduc
ton tc his Life OF Caesar" He says:
To the student OF political history
and to the English student above all
Others the conversion OF the oman re-
public into military empire. COM
mands peculiar interest. Notwith-
standing many differences. the English
and the Romans essentially resemble
one another. The early Romans pos
scsscd the faculty OF self government
beyond any people OF whom we have
historical knowledge, with the one cx-
ccption OF ourselves. In virtue OF their
temporal freedom, they became the
most powerful nation i'll the known
world, and their liberties persisted only
when Rome became mistress of con-
qucred races, to whom she was unable
or unwilling to extend her privileges
III there be one lesson which history
teaches it is this, that free nations cam
not govern sub ect provinces. Ii they
are unable or unwilling to submit their
dependencies to share i'll their own con-
stitution, the constitution itself will fall
IN pieces from mere incompetence for
its Duties"
The rightiulncss OF the proposition
to govern other peoples against their
will ought not to be open for discussion
by the American people, whose govern
ment rests upon the proposition that
government by force, against the will
OF the governed, and not instituted by
the consent OF the governed. is tyranny.
The only answer that we can get to
this proposition is that the Philippines
are ours-that we have acquired them
by purchase and by conquest. | deny
the validity OF each OF these claims.
There was a time when human beings
could be bought and sold under our
laws. but happily that time is past. Nc
kinlcy's statement, that conquest is
criminal aggression and cannot be per
mttcd by our code of morals, is as ;ruc
to-day as when he uttered it. Why did
not he stick to his original code OF NOR
ais? Why did he permit Hanna to re-
wise it?

Governor John Lind Reviews National and State
Issues in His Address at the Audi
forum in St. Paul.
Facts and Pertinent Comment for the Consideration
of the Electors of the State of
Minnesota.

Last Thursday evening the Audito-
rum in the city of St. Paul was filled
with an enthusiastic audience to listen
to the presentation and discussion of
campaign issues by Governor Lind,
Mayor Gray, and others. The speech
delivered by Gov. Lind was in accept
ance OF the unanimous nomination ac-
corded him by the democrats, populists
and silver republicans for a second term
as governor, and was as follows:
Ladies and Gentlemen and Members
OF the Conventions: -Four years ago
when the same parties, who have
today honored me with the nom
tnation for the most important Of
flee in the state, first conferred
upon me the same honor, the
people of the state were not ready for
the change of policy which my election
would have implied; but not daunted
nor discouraged, you again placed my
name in nomination two years ago, and
your action was ratified by the people
by an overwhelming majority. Two
years have served as the chief execu-
tive of the state. My every act has been
subjected to the most searching scrutiny,
friendly and unfriendly. That you should
again, without solicitation and without
seeking on my part, place my name in
nomination in the same manner for
continuance in this great office, is evil
dence OF confidence and approval more
touching and gratifying to me than the
mere political victory in which it may
result if your selection is again ap-
proved by the people of the state. I
thank you all sincerely for the honor
conferred. also desire to thank you,
and congratulate our political friends
and the people of the state, on the wise
selection that you have made for the
other positions on the state ticket.
have not, as yet, had an opportunity
to study the platform that you have
adopted, but I assume that it is in line
with our endeavors in the state, and ma
tionally, in the past If the people OF the
state shall see fit to approve of your
choice and believe that true regard
for their own best interest will prompt
them TO do so, the state will have an
administration that will be fair, just and
efficient in every department. In view of
the occasion and the pending campaign,
you will pardon me, am sure, for de-
voting few moments to the discussion
of the questions awaiting decision at the
polls.

Local Matters.
PlCKEREL SELLING.
The Laws Have Nothing Against the
Practice.
But the Fishing Permit Was Granted Under
Different Representations.
Local Matters.

1t seems that after all that has been
said the merchants have a perfect right
to sell Kennebec pickerel as much as
they desire, as there is no law against
it. Chairman Carleton of the fish and
game commission, says that in the
recent permission given by the com
missioners to the people of Eennebec
county to fish for pickerel in the east
ern part of the county, it is specified
that they shall fish for pickerel but
that it shall be for family consumption
only. There is no fine imposed and no
law of the State is TO be found against
anything of the sort. The commission
erS if they find the law is being abused
have the right upon petition of the
law abiding citizens, to reconsider. but
until that is done no one can be prose
cuted for selling pickerel.
This pickerel law is one that has
caused us trouble from the first" said
Commissioner Carleton. 1t is not the
pickerel alone we are trying to protect
as | suppose everyone understands. 1t
is the other fish. 1t is well known and
l can illustrate by many points that
the fishermen do not confine them
selves to the pickerel alone. They Will
pull up a trout or land locked sal
mon. Some will say the fish had
swallowed the hook so it was sure TO
die and it was saved. Another will
say that he does not think it wrong to
break the law by taking one lone
trout, but the great number taken
counts up. Then in many cases where
the wholesale taking of pickerel is in
force we try to stop that for the sum-
mer visitors will soon stop coming in
case we take the only products of Ger
tain ponds. An illustration of this was
over in Newport where they made a
business of catching the fish and ship
ping them. One man had shipped 4
ton. The thinking people of the town
asked us to put close time upon the
lake. which we did.
The last Legislature provided in one
of the sections of the fish and game
laws that the commissioners might at
their discretion. and after petition
of the people, open under such restric-
tons they saw fit, the ponds closed.
Now the closed ponds We're made that
way by the petition of the people. 1t
stated that we might regulate the TAX
ing of suckers. cells. pickerel. etc.
THE sale of fish. however. was not
asked for in this last case of Kennebec
county and / am somewhat surprised
to see that it should have been sug
gested or carried out. The petitions
We received asking for permission To
fish said specifically that they desired
to fish for home consumption. On this
ground we granted the permit and in
il you will find the section that says
I,Dn h. h., 81,
for each family represented and that
fish shall be taken for home consump-
ton and not otherwise.
NO | can say that the dealers may
purchase all the pickerel they desire
and sell them and they will not De
prosecuted. If there is any prosecu-
tion to be done it Will be on the other
end. the man who fishes for market"

them was carrying the flag Of his coun-
