denouneing trusts vocifer rously lirl-
ill this thing has blown over.
Mr.. Bryan 5 speeches have ten
dency to inaame the minds of peo-
PIE on the trust question and the
inflammation might extend into
Texas, thereby rendering t very
difficult, if not impossible, for Mr.
Jones to secure fair end impartial
trial. It would be very awkward
if the manager of the Democratic
party should, in the midst Of this
campaign, be held criminally guilty
and confirmed in the Texas State
prison for violation Of the trust laws
Of that State. and. even if it did not
go that far, it would provoke
great deal of unfavorable comment
seeing that the platform adopted at
Kansas City makes trusts one of
the most wicked institutions of this
country. We would suggest that
speeches On the tsast question be
confined to the State of New Jersey,
which of late years has been giving
paticular attention to the propagat
ion of this form Of public iniquity In
Idaho, especially in the vicinity Of
Caldwell, il would also be advisable
to lay low on the trust question, be-
cause we have some very benefcent
ones here in which some very radi-
cal ANTITRUST people are deeply in-
=terested and it is really not necessary
at this time to place them in an en-
barrassing position before the pub
lie It is also said that many of
the officers of the Standard Oil
Trust would prefer to have the
questionas little agitated as possible
for the present, as they cannot afford
to have the present prosperous con-
dition of their business jeopardized
by too much unfavorable agitation.
We do not like to see this issue tam
gled up in this way because it is
bound to operate detrimentally to
the great reform forces which are
now almost ON the brick of the re-
formation.

DEMOCRATIC DEMO CRATIC TRUSTS.

''If there is a single trust for
Bryan" says the Kansas City
Times, name it. !"
Angels and ministers of grace de-
fend us Not alone the Ice Trust,
fathered and fostered by Tamn1any
Hall; nor the cotton bale trust,
associated with the revered name
Chairman Jones of Arkansas; nor
yet the Standerd Oil Trust officered
SO plentifully by Democrats who
have a gracious habit of sending in
their checks for handsome sums,
when the campaign is well ON.
Nor even the Silver Trust, which
wants to unload the entire product
of its mines upon the Government.
Nor any of the others. Stuff and
nonsense of the stuffiest and most
nonsensical kind. About all the
Democrats in the country are will
ing even now to take stock in any
old trusts that come along provided
they can be convinced that the stock
viii pay.
Look at Tom johnson and his
Street Car Trust, wherever he could
organize the trusts; the Rockefellers
and the Whitneys and Clevelands
add his two Attorney Generals,
Garland and Harmon, not forget
ting the third and probably the abb
lest Of them all, Olney, and than as
what the Democratic party, before
the split on the silver question came,
ever did to make the existence of
the trusts severe. 1t may be that
talk of that kind will convince
"poor old Missouri" but it finds
no responsive chord in Eastern
hearts. Down here we want the
facts.-Philadelphia Inquirer.

tue american people at that time
may be studied with profit by the
antl-ex pansionists. Mr.. Bryant, in
ms history Of the United States,
thus describes It: ''The Western
States reused themselves and pro-
tested that they would take the
City Of New Orleans and sweep the
spaniards, if necessary, into the
sea. Impelled by their Indignation,
Jefferson sent new powers to Liv-.
1ngston, our Minister in France to
whom Monroe was joined, and bade
the two propose to the First Consul
the purchase of the Island on which
New Orleans stands and the right
OF passage to the sea. ~ Now it is
to be understood that these negotia-
lions were to be conducted with
France and irrespective of the wish
es OF the Spaniards then in possess
sion, and without asking the con-
sent OF the citizens of the proposed
purchase. "The commissioners were
authorized tosoffer the First Consul
1880, 900 but before Monroe's ar
rival in France, Livingston was
met by what seemed to him a most
astounding proposal which was an
offer to sell him the whole region
Tor so, 900, 900 Francs" Here is a
case of annexation almost parallel
with that which has taken place at
the present time. This govern
ment has purchased from the Span
lsh government the Philippine Is
lands: The Louisiana purchase
was negotiated with France, but in
neither case, were the real inhabi-
tants of the purchased territory con-
suited. Now if we are to rely on
the traditional policy of this coun-
try for guidance, and if, as no, one
will question, Thomas Jefferson
was the inventor of that policy, it
seems to us that the position of
the Republican Administration Of
OUR day is justified as fully as need
be.

VERY AWKWARD.

The State authorities of Texas
have commenced proceedings
against the Cotton Bale Trust Of
which the Hon. J. K. Jones, SEN
ator in Congress and Chairman Of
the Democratic National Committee,
is the promoter, chief stakeholder
aed principle officer. We are not

the minds of Democrats. We have
no desire to hurt their feelings by
publishing the fact, that, while in
theory they are haters and de.
stroyers Of trusts, in practice they
are as fond of them as any body

WASHlNGTON'S~ FAREWELL
ADDRESS.

Nearly every day some eminent
statesman proclaims from the ros-
trum that Washington in his fare
well address warned his country
men against entangling alliances
with foreign nations. Now it may
surprise great many people to
learn that no such combination of
words is to be found in the whole
address, but, if anyone will take
the trouble to read the cautions of
the Father of his Country, he will
find that they convey very dltter-
ent meaning from what is attempt
ed to be conveyed by the denounc-
ers of imperialism. Let us exam
inc what Mr.. Washington really
said on this subject and then anal
yze the meaning: I'll.

foreign influence, the jealousy OF a

there the Head-hunters from the.
mountains Of north Luzon, Friars
from the interior, and in fact q con-.
glomoration Of all the Asiatic and
African races that ever existed.
Out of this union Of reform forces
Mr.. Bryan proposes to evolve q
constitutional government based on
the Declaration Of Independence,
and conducted for the moral and
spiritual elevation of mankind
Now, as a matter Of fact, what
would any sensible person expect
froin q fusion Of chat kind Of an ont
fits The chances are 90 to 100 that
the convention would not be in ses-
sion fifteen minutes before there
would be more riots in that CON
vention hall than have occurred in
Ireland since St. Patrick destroyed
the snakes that used to overrun the
country. Is it not the veriest nom
sense to talk about giving iEdepend
ence TO mixed races of peoples who
have not the renotest idea what in
dependence means9 They have no
conception of the responsibilities of
citizenship, no idea Of the obliga-
tion of civilization. They have no
understanding whatever of govern
ment, the mandates OF which, are
enforced by arms. Of course there
are few educated and advanced
people in the Philippines; these
constitute the nucleus out of which
in time to come civilization will
be developed; but no reasonable
person expects that such civiliza-
tion will exist in the Philippines
within the next one hundred years
as will justify leaving the people Of
the Island to govern themselves.
Nearly every tribe is at enmity
with nearly every other tribe. The
three great divisions of the races,
viz, the Negritos, Indonesiarls,
and Malayans are constantly striv-
ing to exterminate each other. Al
ready the Negritos have almost
passed away, and the Indouesians
are almost sure to succumb unless
protected by some civilized power.
The Malayan division is a mixtureo of
Chinese, Negritos and Aras, andjust
assure asthese islands are left tothem
selves the Chinese will eventually
dominate. There is no race ON
earth that can exist alongside Of the
Chinese under equal conditions;
and if the United States withdraw
from the Philippines it will be but
a few years before these islands be-
come the prey of European powers
or fall under the domination of the
pig tailed race.
When Mr.. Bryan talks so flippant-
y of establishing a stable govern
ment there he shows an entire lack
of ability to ana1yze the situation
or measure the difficulties involved,
He can no more do that thing which
he promises to do, in the way he
promises to do it, than he could
Christianize the inhabitants Of the
interior of Africa with religious
tracts. 10.

Tae annual dinner Of sc. Inigo's Par.
ish was held on the Villa grounds Wed.
nesday, August 9Th. The attendance
was very large one, including represen.
tatives from st. Michaels, Sc. Georges

even from Leonardtown. In connec.
ton with the Festival most successful
tournament was held. About twenty.
I'VE knights competed. The scene oil

line Of vehicles. three and four deep,
along the whole length of the field.
The carriages were filed with gallant
men and gentleHomen on hand to see
the brave spectacle and to cheer the con-
testants. So skillful were all the knights

tors in the tourney.
