OUR LITTLE BROWN BROTHERS.

We print this morning a communica-
ton from IAN old Republican concern
ing the Philippine question. In it he
says what many old and young Repub-
licans in this region are thinking, and
they will be glad to see their views 50
clearly and ably expressed. 1t is after
election now, and it is a good time for
Republicans who are not in favor of
what is called imperialism" to say so.
Perhaps they will be called names but
that wont hurt them much. They
have right to speak their minds, and
it is their duty to do so when they
think their party is headed wrong.
And if all the "llttle Americans" say
what they think concerning this most
important matter perhaps the great
Americans will be moved to revise their
programme a little.

rated, even senators and representa-
tives in congress, have been denounced
as "disloyalists," Little Americans
"Aguinaldo worshippers," &c, and in
some cases have been seriously threat
ened with prosecution for treason.
When the sacred right Of free discus
sion is thus openly attacked 1t VIII
hardly do to say that Imperialism Is a
sham which only fools are afraid OF.
So in 1850 we were told that nobody was
oppressed by the institution of slavery,
and that the agitation with regard to
it was confined to fools and fanatics,
and ought to be suppressed Every
body now sees that the prevalence of
these ideas was in itself evidence that
the institution had already debauched
the public mind and had begun to sap
the foundations of law and liberty even
in states where slavery did not exist.
In answer to all this, however, we are
told that imperialism is nothing new
in our history; that the government
established in the Philippines is the ex-
act copy of those which were provided
for Louisiana and Florida when they

Maude Miller rose on election morn
As proud as kid with new tin horn,
For she was to cast a vote, and she
Was filed with angelic ecstasy!
she felt that men were common clay
AS she, on that glorious womans day!
That she was the equal before the law
or any old hemale she ever saW
She could almost feel the dress Of the hins
In tubular form on her neither lbs!
She dressed herself with unusual care
From her dainty feet to her fluffy lair.
In a party carriage she would not ride;
She'd walk to the polls in her mannish
pride!
She started forth with dashing swing,
AS gay as n jaybird on the wing.
A milliner's window caught her eye,
And you know she could never pass that
by!
Stepped into the waiting SPIDERS net
TO try on Il hat; 1t was early yet.
She spent an hour mid the fairy show,
Then happened to think she would better
go.
Some gowns in window lay in wait
For girls who would bite at such a bait.
She glued her nose to the polished pane
And studied the styles again ana again.
She wondered how she would look If she
We're dressed in such dreams of tinery
She entered the store and for half the day
Inspected the goods in Il crazy way!
As the day was waning she stood before
The flashing gems in a jewelry store;
Passed on to window filled with hose,
And nighties and other sacred clothes!
Went into an ice cream joint to get
A plate or two of the frozen wet.
She met friend on the street, and they
Snapped talk till an hour had passed away.
Then again she fastened in graceful flight
10 mGkc Il shy Mt her sacred right.
But alas! as you no doubt have supposed.
She found that the mean old polls had
closed!
They might have known, the condemned
old set
OF men, that she hadn't voted yet!
They did 1t on purposel 1t wasn't fair!
They were perfectly horrid old thiuys! So

ENTITLED TO WHATTHEYP Pay FOL

Il Il
Anything that has anything to dc
with taking up or putting down street
veners, whose minds and pocketbooks
are as much torn up as their streets.
1t may cheer them some to know that
a judge thinks they have at least the
right to demand the kind of pavement
they pay for. In a street paving case
in Chicago Judge Carter said that the
pavement, not having been laid in ac-
cordance with the specifications, need
not be paid for by the property-owners.
In other words, the same rule applies
to the non-performance of the contract
in this case that would apply if the
contract had been between a single
private work. Where the city comes in
under this decision is not yet fully I'M
mits the city, through the board of local
Improvements, to stand between the
property owner and the contractor to
act as trustee of the property-owner in
having the work done. BY taking the
money of the property -owner and
agreeing to put down pavement of a
certain kind, paying all the expenses
for tests and inspection of the work
out of the property-owner's money, it
is possible that some liability attaches
to the city as trustee. That is to say,
having agreed to give the property
owner one kind of pavement if the city
gives it another and inferior kind the
city may be liable for the loss the prop
erty-owner suffers by the deficiency.
Perhaps this decision wont make
much difference in Chicago or any
where else, but it may help to increase
the self-respect of the taxpayer little.

0TJY AND Ely,

Quay means to be United States Sen
ator if he can be, and it is already evil
dent that he and his helpers wont stick
at trif1es in their efforts to win. The
case of Representa- Samuel M
Ray of Philadelphia is attracting some
attention and will attract more. When
Mr.. Ray refused to pledge himself in
advance, two of his leaders limited at
election frauds in his district, for which
he would be made answerable, and in
tin1ated that prosecution could only
be avoided by the signing of the pledge
to attend the caucus and abide by its
decision. He weakly signed, but when
he thought the matter over he publish
ed letter to the effect that the pledge
extorted from him by threats had been
signed only as matter of temporary
convenience; that he was ready to meet
all accusers and Indifferent to the
trumped-up charge of election fraud;
finally, that he would under no circum.
stances vote for Quay during the pres
ent session of the legislature. The AL
lied Organizations for Good Govern
ment will follow up the case, and fine
and imprisonment already hang over
two of Quay's lieutenants.
1t is now asserted by Quay's oppo-
nents that he wont come as near being
elected as he did before. His helpers
have certainly made a good-sized mis-
take in the Ray case.

NO RISE md WORSE.

1t has already been pretty well estab-
lished that the mosquito is responsible
for much malaria, and it may soon be
believed that the pesky insect is also
responsible for much yellow fever. Ex-
periments made by DR.. w. Reed and
other surgeons of the United States
tend to confirm the theory that the mos
quito can and does carry yellow fever
servation by mosquitoes which had pre-
viously bitten yellow fever cases took
the fever, though they had not other
wise been so circumstanced as to be
infected. One of the experimenters who
permitted an infected mosquito thus to
bite him died of the yellow fever in
consequence. 1t seems that mild case
of the fever does not infect mosquito
very effectually, but a severe case thor
oughly poisons the insect and enables
him to communicate the disease in
virulent form. Persons present at au-
topsies or engaged in dissecting yellow
fever cases do not necessarily contract
the fever. One may be a non-immune
and yet touch and handle the organs
of yellow fever cases with impunity.
But the experiments seem to show that
it is extremely dangerous to be exposed
to the bites of mosquitoes that have
come in contact with the bodies of pa

Warren F. Spaulding, secretary of
the Massachusetts, prison association,
sees a crying need for establishing an
intermediate reformatory for the three
hundred youths, under Is years Of age,
who are now in various prisons of the
State. He urges that these prisoners
should be placed by themselves, thus
removing them from the contamination
of association with mature criminals,
and making it possible to apply scien-
tific methods of treatment with the
hope of recovering many of them to
good citizenship. Such trea tment
would include schooling and manual
training and this would be expected to
help reduce the criminal population
and cut down in some degree the large
expense of habitual criminality How
large this outlay is appears in the
statement that Massachusetts spends
nearly a million dollars annually upon
Its prisons.

Martin B. Schroeder, of Philadelphia,

worst They work the Chinks almost
to death during the day and then
killed them at night. Many OF
the soldiers are well supplied with
money which they have taken from the
Chinese. An American here is held in
high respect by the people of all other
nations. The Japanese make fine little
soldiers, but they are being butchered
without mercy. Here we see Tommy
