Tn his opinion. the most influential of the tribes inhabitating the Philippines are far more fitted for statehood today than were the people of New Mexico fifty-two years ago. His conclusion is that the Philippines must remain un- der a territorial form of government for a long time to come. But he dwels upon the importance of impressing up On the native mind the permanence of our authority in the archipelago. It is the fear of our withdrawal and of subsequent reprisal by the few thou sand remaining insurgents and ban dittl that induces Filipinos, who well come the beneficent purposes of Amer ican sovereignty, to pay secret tribute to the public enemy.

 the champion of the democratic party; the result has shown that this choice was not the best pos sible. Whatever may be the personal qualities of MT. Bryan. he is endowed with an activity and an eloquence equally indefatigable. the memories of his campaign in 1896 weigh yet on him. and have cost him many voters. It has not been forgotten that four years ago Mr. Bryan chose for electoral platform the free issue of silver. Belonging to the silver sections of the west, he be- leved to find there in adopting this programme, and he has effectively found it. a numerous and ardent ellen tele; but at the same time, he caused the most lively and legitimate dis quietude to arise in the rest of the United States. If he had succeeded at that epoch, America would have been submitted to an economical crisis Of which the result would have extended very far, and from which it, would have has qualified MT. Bryan as candidate of false money, one has given to him a severe, but not unmerited, qualifca- ton. The vehemence and even revolu- tionary violence with which he sus- tained his arguments. had definitely prejudiced against him many good minds and it is not after four years alone that all that could be forgotten. There was much more reason that it should not be. since in his new cam paign, Mir. Bryan did not renounce his claims in favor of silver; it was al ways part of his programme.

It is the past without doubt, but that past is of yesterday, and it was dangerous to evoke it. It can be doubted besides, whether the support given at New York by Mir. Croker to Mir. Bryan was useful to the latter. Who knows if it has not been hurtful? Whatever there may be of it, Mir. Bryan has been beaten, and it is not without some melancholy that he has found himself obliged to send, for the second time. his fe:icitations to his happy rival.

As vice president, MT. Roosevelt will occupy a rented house in Washington,
 and his friends say that
 NOT it will not be an expen-
 so sive residence, for the SMALL. reason that the vice
 president-elect is not a rich man. The property which his fa- ther left to him in New York yields him an annual income of but $S,O0O or $1O,- 900. Hence MT. Roosevelt feels called upon to engage deeply and constantly in literary work next year to increase his income, notwithstanding the fact that it will be sl6,000 to $1S,000 year, anyhow. We are acquainted with some editors not a thouhani miles from Phoenix who manage to exist on no more than the latter figure.
