should make itself the legal owner of the
islands. The agreed policy of the Sena-
tors who took the first position was to
amend the treaty so that the status of the
Philippines should be the same as that of
Cuba. Senators who were in favor of
holding the Philippines permanently or
indefinitely were every one strong sup
porters of the policy of ratifying the treaty
as it was made by the Paris commission
ers. This was the situation when Mr..
Bryan appeared upon the scene and by
argument and persuasion succeeded in de-
taching enough Democratic senators from
the policy of the opponents Of perma-
nent retention to effect the ratification of
the treaty as it stood. The ratification Of
the treaty was hailed everywhere as a
victory for the annexationists, and MIR.
Bryan's influence was potent in bringing
about this victory Indeed. without 1T
it could not have been achieved Mr..
Bryan says his idea was to have adopted
eo1ncident with the ratification of the
treaty, the Bacon resolution declaring
against permanent retention. But had that
baan done it would have been simply
an expression OF opinion without bind
ing force, and would not necessarily have
accomplished anything, while if the
treaty had been amended 80 correspond
with this resolution and ratified the
United States would have been esstopped
from claiming sovereignty over the Phil
ippines as completely as over Cuba. Mr..
Bryan may have sincerely believed that
his way was better way than the plan
of Senator Hoar and Senator Hale, and
the most of the Democratic senators
But to accord him credit for sincerity in
this business is to admit him capable of
great folly. His friends may take any
horn of the dilemma, but they cannot
hold him guiltless OF contributing in
very large measure to the acquisition of
the Philippines. If the islands are to be
regarded as an ele plant then Bryan is
largely responsible for the elephant being
on our hands.
Are the opponents of the permanent
retention Of the Philippines to accept as
their Moses to lead them out of what they
believe to be a wilderness the man
who either in the hope Of making politi-
cal capital for himself or because of an
egregious lack OF wisdom and foresight
led them into itf What guaranty can he
give that he will not repeat his former
unWisdom, and lead US still further into
the wilderness?

SHOPS AND SHOPPING in
HAVANA.
The Department Store Has Not Yet
Reached the Cuban Capital.

(Havana Letter in New York Times
In a city of almost 800, 900 inhabitants
the number Havana boasts, one naturally
expects to find, among other things, dry
goods stores of considerable sizs, at which
a fair assortment OF materials at reason
able prices are to be had. Let no one
start on a shopping expedition In Havana
with an idea such as this in her mind-I
say her, assuming that no man will be
lnveigle1 into such an occupation, ex-
cepting under the stress of neeessity-for
she will be doomed to certain disappoint-
ment. If she begins her tour on Obispo
street, as she viii have been advised to
do, beyond doubt, she will find a very
narrow street, so narrow that vehicles ara
only permitted to move in one direction
on it, and stores small in proportion. 1t
Will take her some minutes to bring her
self to believe that these are the best
shops in the city, for they are no larger
than those in villages in the States. To
be sure, they carry some very good arti-
Giles, but such prices are charged for
them that one feels that it is almost alb
surd to pay them. Plain linens are an
exception, for they are cheaper than in
the North; but table linen OF Irish and
French makes is much more expensive.
New customs regulations have been
made recently which Will soon increase
the price of the former class also.
One may go the length OF the street and
he win scarcely find a single shop of two
stories; everything is on the ground floor
and that everything, as d rule, consists of
but one line Of goods. The day OF

Mr.. Bryan's' reply to the notification
OF his nomination deals almost entirely
with the question of so called imperial
ism Silver and the trusts are practically
Ignored. Even on the subject OF imperial
Ism Mr.. Bryan does little except to elabor-
ate somewhat the views he has heretofore
expressed on that matter. He states more
definitely than before what his policy
toward the Philippines will be, if elected
President, and he seeks to explain and
Justify his advice to the Democrats to
vote for the ratification of the Paris
treaty. One reason which he says infiu-
enced him to support the treaty was that he
Thought it safer to trust the American
people to give independence to the Fill
pinos than to trust the accomplishment
OF that purpose to diplomacy with an
unfrlendIy nation, yet at the time he
was thinking this way he had seen Cuba
given independence by diplomacy with
this same unfriendIy nation. Why Mr..
Bryan should have been so distrustful of
diplomatic negotiations to bring about
the independence of thu Philippines.
when they had worked so successfully in
regard to Cuba 1t is difficult to imagine.
1t was perfectly feasible to extinguish
the title Of Spain to the Philippines with
out taking it ourselves. Spain was pros
trate at our feet and was bound to accent
any arrangement we proposed, and fur
thermore after she lost her title to the IS
land it mattered little to her whether the
title fell to the Inhabitants of the island
Or to us. But as matter of fact the question
never was whether Spain or the United
States could better be trusted to give the
Philippines independence. Nobody pro-
posed to trust anything to Spain in this
business. Everybody recognized that the
United States must determine the fate of
the Philippines, and the real question
before the Senate was whether the United
States should treat them as it proposed to
breat Cuba, that is hold them temporar-
lily in trust for their inhabitants, or
