THE END NOT IN SIGHT.
Senate Still Engaged in Discussing the

0onats Still Engaged In Discusstng the
ID PHI :ppfae Question. HI TAFT.
+ WASHINGTON. j an II. The senate is
still in the throes of discussion of the
Philippine question and apparently
there is no near approach to a deliver
ance upon the subject. Mr.. Vest of
Missouri voiced the opinion Of many
senators when he said that such discus
sion as was now in progress was OF no
consequence as the country was con-
fronted by state Of facts that could
not be changed by talk. Mr.. Petit
CREWS resolution Of inquiry and Mr..
Lodges substitute for it were laid on
the table and Mr.. Hoar's general reso-
luton of inquiry as to the facts in the
Philippines was taken up. A motion
OF Mr.. PettigreW to amend 1t SO as to
call for the presidents first instructions
to the Paris peace commissioners led 10
q prolonged debate. After the senate
had considered the matter
Behind Closed Doors
the amendment was rejected--41 to 90.
The debate Of the day was concluded
by Mr.. Vest, who made strong speech
in opposition to the assumption in some
quarters that every man who does not
agree with the policy of the admins
tration is traitor to his country. Mr..
Vest threw into his utterances all the
nervous force and energy and the &C.
complished oratorical ability for which
he is famed and commanded the atten-
ton of the senate throughout.
Mr.. McLaurin Dem., S. CO. ad-
dressed the senate on the financial ques-
ton, making an argument in favor of
his proposition to confer authority upon
state banks to issue circulating notes.

Philippine Discussion Con-
tinues, Several Senators
Participating. 3"
PettigreW's Resolution Asking
for Certain Information
Is Defeated.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-THE senate
has ratified the Samoan treaty without
division. The ratification occurred in
executive session after two hours of de-
bate which was participated in by
number of senators. Messrs. Davis,
Foraker and Spooner advocated and
Senators Bacon, Money and Hllman
opposed ratification.
Senator BACON made the leading
speech in opposition. He based his OPP
position on the contention that it was
contrary to The spirit of our institutions
to attempt to govern people in opposi-
ton to their wishes. MIR. Bacon said
the friends Of the treaty supported it
upon the two grounds that it simply
divides authority heretofore exercised
jointly and the Samoan people being
only Ignorant savages" there is no
reason why they should not be
De~poilsd Of Their Country.
He contended that it was not true that
continued under division of authority
and asserted that the declaration that
the Samoan people were savages was
untenable. He said the proposed change
should not be made without the consent
of the natives. Senators Money and
Tillman spoke in substantially the
same lines. ,.'
The friends of the treaty repudiated
the suggestion that the old treaty lines
were annihilated. They claimed this
country by this new arrangement MAIN
tains all the old advantages and avoids
complications liable to grow out of the
tripartite agreement. They urged that
the opportunity should not be lost to
get out Of an awkward predicament
and to control in our own right the
harbor of Pago Pago.

As. gravcly bending DER the horoscope,
We lightly gid our prophecies with hope.
What does it stand for? With what meaning
fraught
Do we observe this mystic double naught2
No wheezy grip-oh most ecstatic dream
No trusts fret the economic scheme,
No orators who talk, but do not think;
No naughty plays to drive sad folk to drink,
No feuds to haunt the overworked police,
No bold election frauds to break the peace.
No poorly heated cars to cause distress,
No comic ads. to make you stare and guess
But Father Time heaved out lingering sigh
And said: II do my best. as years go by,
