THE CREDIT AND DEBIT SIDE.

Now, having enjoyed the intimate
friendship of England for about two
years, where are we at? We have ac-
quired the Philippines, Puerto Rico.
and part of Samoa, and we have freed
Cuba, while Great Britain said to Eu-
rope: Stand back Hands off, This
is the credit side. On the debit side
we are as isolated from the rest of
the world as England is. This, the
chief of Republics, has not friend
among the other Republics We are
cold toward France, our first ally, who
gave US our independence and taught
us liberty. We have no sympathy with
the Beers, who are fighting England
now as we fought her in 1776. Russia,
the only nation that stood by us during
the Civil war and sent a fest here to
prevent England from intervening, is
now Indifferent, if net inimical With
Germany, closely bound to US by ties
of blood, we have been on the point
of hostilities. Freedom for Ireland.
once dear to every American heart. is
now dismissed as an idle dream. We
are becoming unparalleled according to
English methods. We are growing de-
generate after the English fashions in
politics, literature and plays. Strike
the balance sheet and decide whather a
close friendship with our ancient and
only enemy pays, 1t certainly does
not pay in American politics, for it will
cost the Republican party the next
Presidency if the Democrats take adj
vantage of their opportunities and
nominate a decent ticket.

Last year we finished war with
Spain, and thousands of our soldiers
are still fighting in the Philippines, in
a tropical, miasmatic climate, and are
daily enduring torments there for their
country and their flag. L cannot at
present call to mind and instance
where the men and women of society
who figured at the English The Con-
cert" at She1Ty's, participated, either
as actors or spectators, in any affair
arranged for the benefit of our soldiers
in Cuba or the Philippines. L cannot
remember that their names have been
upon any list of contributors to the
fund to relieve the frightful suffering
of the Cuban reconcentrados at our
doors, or to help such of them as re-
main alive to start life anew. 1 did
not notice that any of them were pres
ent at General Lawton's funeral, or
that they sent a single flower or wreath
to be laid upon his coffin or his grave.

Senator Ve2t, in the course If his re-
marks on the Indian appropriation bill
in the Senate last week, paid this feel
ing tribute to the Jesuits; Mr.. Pres
ident, the Jesuits have elevated the In
dian wherever they have been allowed
to do so without interference of bigotry
and fanatieism and the cowardice of
insectfvOrCUs politicians, who are afraid
of the A. P, A. and the votes that can
be cast against them in their district
and States. They have made him
Christian, and, above even that, have
made him a workman able to support
himself and those dependent upon him
The Jesuit has no family. He has no
ambition. He has no idea except to do
his duty as God has given him to see
it; and l am not afraid to say this, be-
cause l speak from personal observa-
ton, and no man even went among
these Indians with more intense preju-
dice against the Jesuits than 1 had
when l left the city OF Washington to
perform that duty. 1 made my report
to the Secretary of the Interior, Sen
ator Teller, now on this floor, and
said in that report what l say here,
and what ] would say anywhere and
be glad Of the opportunity to say it,"

THE DOMINANT RELIGION.

1t not infrequently happens that a
relfgfonist of the school of IngersOll
will attempt to decry the Importance
of Christianity by reference to the
millions upon millions who are at
tached to some other faith. His joy is
in the ORIENT where the immense pop
ulations Of China and India and the
lack of exact information about them
make the most exaggerated specula-
tons plausible Knowing only that
their millions are counted by hundreds,
it is easy to borrow an additional hun
dred if necessary to outfiank and over
whelm the less romantic statistics of
the West.
But it is pointed out in connection
with the work of the general mission
airy conference that numerous as are
the devotees of mont Christian religiona,
the Church of Christ has no reason to
fear a numerical comparison. A gem

PLAGUE REACHES HILO.
Honolulu Reports the Disease
Under Control in That City.

Honolulu. Feb. Is, via San Francisco,
Cal, Feb. 23.-The black plague has
broken out at both Kahului in the ISL
and of Maui and Hilo, on the island of
Hawaii The latest advices report
seven deaths at Kahului, all Chinese,
and one at Hilo, Portuguese woman,
the wife of A G. Senao. The n>ys
was received here February 10, in a
letter from Sheriff Baldwin. China
town in Kahului which had about 300
Inhabitants has been destroyed by fire,
the sanitary conditions were worse than
in Honolulu. The towns of La Haine
and Hauhua have established quaran-
tine against other portions of Maui.
An unfortunate feature of the case is
the proximity to Kahului of several
large plantations with their thousands
of labOrerS. 1t is thought that the
plague reached Kahului through the
shipment of Chinese New Year goods.
In Honolulu the health situation is
better than at any time since the out
break of the plague. Not a case has
developed in the last ten days Al
though the board of health is confident
that the trouble is over vigilence will
not be relaxed. Up to February g. the
date of the last case there have been
SO deaths from plague in this city. The
board of health has passed a resolu-
tion prohibiting the landing of all mer-
chandise from countries where the bu-
bonic plague exists.
The first vessel to have her freight re-
fused landing under this order was the
British ship Strathgyle of the San Di-
| ego line. Saturday, February II, has
been set apart as rat killing day, and
a great slaughter of the rodents is ex-
pected.
The penniless conditions of the thou
sands of Chinese and japanese who lost
their homes in the recent fire in China
town is growing to be a matter of con-
Germ to the officials. The council of
state appropriated an additional $10,-
900 for the completion of camps for
them.
The government expects to receive in
structions by next mail in reference to
the legislature. The Importance of an
early session was laid before President
Mckinley some time ago. There is an
impression in the cabinet that Presi-
dent Mckinley will direct that the ses-
sion Will be held at the regular con-
stitutional time and not until after the
enabling act is passed
The opinion of the attorney general in
regard to appropriations really makes
the situation serious, though not so bad
as it will be after March 81, when the
appropriations under the loan act will
run out. At present even the customs
| bureau, board of health, department OF
education, public works bureau and
postoffice hardly know where they stand
in several important particulars. The
police department is no better off.
In the meantime or until March I,

sonal funds to carry out the work in
the postoffice and customs bureau, re-
lying on the legislature to reimburse
him
