THE PHAR1sEE IN THE TEMPLE.


THE PHARIsEE IN THE TEMPLE.
The Rev. T. De Witt Talmage, in an
interview published In the Chicago Trib-
une, regarding the position of the United
States towards the islands of Cuba and
Puerto Rico and the Philippines, seems
to hold the opinion that the conquest Of
the Philippines is duty imposed on this
country by the Almighty. So thought the
Israelites when they ravished the land Of
Canaan from the original possessors, and
so thought, or professed, the Spaniards
when in the name of Christianity they in
ficted terrible crIelties upon the natives
of Peru and Mexico and deprived them
of their independence under the cloak Of
civilization. If the Mosaic law Is to be
the guide for people of the United States,
then may we go forth and smite and
spare not, and spoil the Egyptians and
slay the heather whenever and wherever
we find them. Or, if we are to follow the
bloody traditions of the dark ages or of
feudal Spain, then we may prey upon de-
fenseless peoples and rob and enslave them
at our own free will. But. if we are to
follow the new law-the law of Christ,
which He laid down in the words: AN
other law 1 give unto you-that We love
one another'-then we must decline to
agree with the Rev. T. De Witt Talmage,
minister of the gospel of Christ though
he may pretend to be.
In this interview Mr. Talmage further
says of the new island possessions of the
United States: 81 believe the ultimate
| destination of these countries is to be in
dependent republics They are not fitted
for self-government now, but under our
| guiding hand they will come to an ap-
probation of what our institutions and
civilization stand for" Applied to a
! people like the Cubans or the Filipinos,
who have been fighting for independence
and freedom from Spanish oppression for
| their homes and their wealth to obtain
the right to govern themselves and to
| be Free such words are a mockery and
an insult. and could only be uttered-if
| uttered in good faith-by person blind
! ed by egotism Vanity and self-r1ght-
eousness could alone produce such
sentiments as these which Rev. T. De
Witt Talmage gives voice to from the
luxurious recesses of the Auditorium no.
tel, and they are typical of the man.

The Metropolitan will have for its at

THE MAYOR,s DILEMMA.

1t is very much to be regretted that the
crate with the G OBJ in inducing May
or Kiefer to throw the responsibility for
the present wretched police conditions on
the common council. Our contemporary
is quite willing to fasten on that body
all responsibility for the shameful state
of affairs which exists in regard to the
social evil in the city. 1t was but mo-
mentary belief in the candor of our con-
temporary which led the G l Q to make
the suggestion. 1t will be necessary, OF
course for the G o b now, without thu
aid of our contemporary to endeavor to
carry to Mayor kiefer the conviction that
he should send in communication to the
assembly at it's next meeting reciting that
he has chosen to remove Chief Goss, and
perhaps certain of his assistants, for the
good of the service.
Both Mayor Kiefer's friends and enc
mics in politics, those Of the Democratic
and Republican parties. as well as
those who are independent of party in
local politics, unite in. acknowledging that
the present shocking conditions can only
be prolonged by the fault Of Mayor kief-
err The responsibility is all his, not be-
cause the Dispatch has been telling the
public that the hands Of the police de-
partment are tied; but because the impos-
sible condition which has been created
can be ended only by the mayor removing
those who are responsible. To this the
mayor is understood to respond by say
ing that the council will not concur in
the removal. That is mere nonsense. TIE
mayor has nothing whatever to do with
what the council does or refuses to do.
His duty is plain. Conditions have been
created which call for Encouragement
of the police department. AS the head of
the police department, and as the execu-
tive official of the city government, 1t is
his duty to take the necessary steps to
accomplish this purpose. The failure TO
do this is his failure. and he alone can
be regarded as responsible for the general
prevalence of crime in st. Paul.
The palpable reason for the refusal Of
the Dispatch to unite with the G l o b e
in urging the mayor to throw the respon-
sibility on the council is the fear of our
contemporary that the council might re-
spond to the mayors recommendation by
doing just as he asks. This, probably, Is
what the council would do and will do
| when called on. There are members of
the council who will not long endure the
prevailing condition. These men will, il
the mayor refuses longer to do his duty,
make plain his failure, and fasten the
responsibility all the more securely on
him. AS the mayor allows himself to be
controlled in the matter. by purely po-
litical considerations, 1t is worth while to
direct his attention to the undoubted fact
that while he dallies with a dangerous
situation his Republican enemies are
making a martyr out of Mr.. Goss, and
are cutting the ground steadily from I'M
der the political feet of the object of

statement published by Mr.. Clark

Des Moines, Iowa, Register:
We had $4,000 I5-year limited
tontine policy in the New York
Life, which matured last October.
We paid that company $364.6o
annual premium on that policy for
fifteen years, and paid the COM
pany $546o in cash during that
period. When the policy matured
the company proffered $4,000 80 for
a settlement and a surrender of
the policy; and that, too, notwith-
standing we held and still hold the
estimate of the company's agent

that the policy would be worth
$8II6 at its maturity. We cor

two months, in an endeavor to gain
fair settlement, only to find that
the fine print policy compelled us
to accept the paltry sum rendered
by the company"
