To doubt the election of Senator Quay
ON the first ballot would be to doubt the
integrity of men who have made pledges

We-do not doubt that Insurgant money
played considerable game in the early
days following the election among dis
honorable persons, but when Republicans
in good standing voluntarily sign
promises and take the trouble to write
letters and all within a few days of the
meeting of the Legislature, it is taken for
granted that they mean what they say.

AMERICAN QUEEN OF IRELAND
Baltimore Belle Shared the Vice.
Regal Throne Of Dublin Castle.

Writing of Mary Cation Patterson,
in the January Ladies' Home Journal,
William Perrine recalls that 1.-The
Americans read with wondering eyes
the stories which came from ireland of
the regal magniticence with which one
of their countrywomen was dazzling
the British people; how she had be-
come the wife of the brother of the
Duke of Wellington, and how the
court of the newly-wedded pair mt
Dublin Castle rivaled the brilliancy Of
royalty itself. She was called The
American Queen of the Irish Court,
and in no capital of Europe would her
fatterers allow that there was wo-
man who surpassed her in the ele-
gance of her bearing and in the accom-
plishments of a sovereign. Indeed, she
was only one of a group of sisters
whom Europeans hailed as The Amer
lean Graces.' Their mother, daugh-
ter of Charles Carroll. had married
Richard Cation, poor English gentle
man of handsome face and presence,
who settled in Baltimore. Mary. the
most famou, Of the three daughters.
married Robert Patterson, brother of
Betsy Patterson, the first wife of Je-
rome Bonapartc. After the death of
her husband. in 1899. the Baltimore
belle revisited Europe. Hardly less
eminent than the Duke of Wellington
before the battle of Waterloo had been
his brother, the Marquis Of Wellesley.
In the spring of 1925 it was announced
in Ireland where Wellesley was lord
lieutenant, that he was engaged to her,
and it was noted in the United States
as Il curious coincidence that while one
American girl had married the brother
of Napoleon another, and she her sis
ter-in-law, should marry the brother of
Nnpolcon's conQueror."

The Philippine Islands.

The following description Of the
Philippines is given by Thomas F. Nc
Govern. of New Haven, Conn. who is
now private of company G, Seven
teenth infantry, U. S. a., in letter to
a friend:
The Philippines are a bunch of trou-
bic gathered on the western horizon of
civilization. They are bounded on the
north by rocks and destruction, on the
south by cannibals and earthquakes.
on the east by typhoons, and on the
west by hoodooism and smuggling.
The climate is deceptive combination
Of changes we'll adapted to raising
Cain. The soil is very fertile and
large crops Of insurgents and treachery
are produced.
The inhabitants are very industrious
in building trenches and making bolos.
Their houses are made chiefly of BAN

riage ceremonies are very impressive,
especially where the wife is given the
provision of working rs much as her
husband desires.

Great Britain is realizing the full
meaning of fighting with long lines of
communications a determined enemy
on his own ground. De Wet has
taught us the lesson the Russians
taught Napoleon and the Spaniards
impressed OH Marshal Ney. In small
er way the Filipinos are to-day edu-

De Wet. as is now fairly well under

man, a peasant, a talker of taal. and
Boer i'll the true sense of the term.
In the days when he had still a presi-
dent and a war office, his dispatches
were of the scantiest and of the least
elucidatory value.
The following account Of the escape
of De Wet from the British forces in
pursuit of him comes from Blomfon-
tein and is given by another British
correspondents:
When Haasbroek's command Joined
De Wet, Dec. IL, some fifteen miles
east Of Thaba Nchu, Gen. Knox was
only about an hour distant and the
Boer situation appeared desperate.
But De Wet was equal to the occasion.
Dispatching Haasbroek westward. to
make a feint at Victoria mex, De Wet
prepared to break through the British
columns at Sprinhaunek pass, about
four miles of broad, flat, unbroken
ground. At the entrance were two
fortified posts, while artillery was
posted eastward, watching the Beers.
Suddenly magnificent spectacle was
presented. The whole Boer army of
$500 men started at gallop in open
order through the mex. President
Steyn and Peit Fourie led the charge
and De Wet brought up the rear.
The British guns and rifles doomed
and ratified incessantly. The Beers
first tried the eastward route but, en-
countering artillery, they diverged and
galloped to the foot Of the hill to the
eastward, where the fire of only a
single post was effective. The whole
maneuver was piece of magnificent
daring and it's success was complete,
in spite of the loss of 15-pounder
and twenty-five prisoners.

stitutional guarantees to the people Of
Porto Rico and the Philippines, the
secretary of war also said: Gas be-
tween the people Of the ceded islands
and the United States, the former are
subject to the complete sovereignty Of
the latter, controlled by no legal limita-
ton except those which may be found
in the treaty of session; that the people
of the islands have no right - *
to assert a legal right under the consti-
tuition which was established for the
people of the United States themselves
and to meet the conditions existing up
on this continent, or to assert against
the United States any legal right what
ever not found in the treaty." Sub
stantially, this position taken by Sec
rotary Root was adopted by the Re-
publican majority of the house and
senate committees in the Porto Rican
tariff fight and became the fighting
ground of the administration support
crS of the bill
Such are the issues involved in the
discussion opened on Monday before
the highest judicial tribunal of the
land. Does the constitution follow the
the republic? Are they bound and
privileged by the constitution? Are
the people of the cedcd islands entitled
to the constitutional guarantees? Can
they assert a right under the consti-
tuition? Is the government bound by
the constitution in ruling them, or is
its power absolute and unlimited? In
other words, are we to have one repub-
lie under one constitution, one people
and one country; or. are we to have
country part republic under the const-
tuition, and part colony under the alb
solute sovereign power of an imperial
power in Washington? Are we to have
the flag of the constitution here, and
the flag of absolute sovereignty there?
Are we to become part citizens and
part subjects, part commonwealths
and part colonies? Is the government
bound by the constitution on the con-
tinent only, and elsewhere limited
only by its own power and greed?
We shall know within few months.
The forthcoming decision will be more
fraught with good or ill for the repub-
lie, and have more to do with it's flu
turc destiny, perhaps, than any other
handed down by the supreme court
since its establishment century ago;
for the issues involved lie at the foun-

lent that on numerous occasions the
islands have been shaken with chill.
Communication has been established
between the numerous islands by sub
shutting the mosquito for the carrier
pigeon, the mosquito being larger and
better. The Filipinos are our friends
at the point of our guns. The climate
is pleasant and healthful for mosqui-
toes, bugs, snakes, tarantulas, reaches,
scorpions, centipedes and alligators.
The soil is also adapted for foul odors
and breeding diseases. In other words,
New Haven will be just exactly good
enough for me as soon as l can get
back to it, after leaving the army.
