States were in favor OF trade eNpan-

would not favor any colonial policy which
is not based upon the principle that gov
crnment rested upon the consent OF the
governed
Mr. Baker went into the subject OF inn
pcrialism TO some extent. and also touch
ed upon the money question which tho
Democratic presidential candidate had de-
clared was stll an issue. IIc also re-
ferrcd to the prophecies OF Mr. Bryan

EARS OF

SOLDIERS
Rich Filipino Pays SlO0 for
Each by killing
Of His Son.

New York, oct. 1l.-Out Of the Philip
pines has come tale of a maddened
fathers revenge for the death OF his
son, which reads like the barbarlc stories
of the days of Morgan and his buccan-
eers. Not an eye for an eye, but life
and an ear for a lifeis the story brought
back by Sergeants Ross l. Barton and
John Zimmerman, OF the Forty-seyenth
volunteer infantry. who have recently re-
turned to their homes I'm Whitestone, l.. l.
According tostheir narrative, while
their regiment was fighting with the Fill
pinos at Albay, Sergeant Fowler also OF
Whitestone, shot and killed handsome
young Filipino lieutenant named Marcus
ana captured his sword.
Lieutenant Marcus was a son of Mar
cellue Marcus. a wealthy Filipino who "
known all over the island, and who had
hitherto been friendly to the Americans,
although his son was bitterly opposed to
them.
His sons death, however, reused the old
man TO A pitch OF the greatest fury, and
he swore that he would spend every dol
lar he owned TO avenge his boy despite
the fact that young Marcus had been
killed I'm a fair fight.
Marcelue Marcus accordingly raised
troop of three thousand native followers,
and offered "A reward Of 500 for every left
ear OF a member of the Forty-seventh
regiment.
This offer at once brought forth fruit.
Every American thereafter killed was
found 10 have his left ear missing and
many Chinese and light colored Ftipinos
also lost theirs. the Filipinos evidently
not being above making money out OF the
old fathers thirst for revenge
Marcus is now said 10 be treasuring
string OF over one hundred ears, not more
than five OF which could have been cut
from the heads OF members OF the Forty
seventh regiment

They DO Protest Too Much.

There is no Imperialism" declares
President Mckinley in his letter of
acceptance. From president down to
the humblest spellbinder and organ
grinder the republicans are kept busy
protesting that an evil which does ex-
ist in a palpable form really has no
existence. Their denials are based
upon the assumption that the Ameri-
can people are SO dull witted that they
are unable to understand the differ
ence between republican government
and the kind of government which has
been established in Porto Rico and
which is ultimately to be forced upon
the Fiiipinos.-Baltimo Sun.

The Vermont and Maine cleo
lions make it certain that the gold
democrats are very generally voting
with their party again. That being
the case, there are strong reasons for
saying that Mr.. Bryan, besides the
southern. states, will get all of the
states in which Mr.. Mckinley was VIC
torious by a small majority in 1896.
There are enough of those states to
insure a majority of the electoral
votes for Mr.. Bryan.-Savannah News.

TRUE IMPERIALISM.
Republican Belief That the Mckin-
ley Administration Should BE
Perpetuated.

Senator Hanna is radically and dan
gerously wrong in his belief that the
time is at hand when it is an American
duty to do all one can to "perpetuate"
the Mckinley administration.
Even if Mr.. Mckinley had devoted
himself to serving the American people
instead of the American trusts, it would
not be the duty of Americans to "per-
petuate" his ministration. The per
petua ton" of administrations is not
advisable in free and self-governing
republic.
1t is essentially logical, however.
that Hanna and the imperialist party
should believe heart and soul in the
advisability of ."'perpetuating" Mr.. &c
Kinley's administration. Empire and
the unchanged rule of the man who
stands for empire dovetail together as
neatly and surely as two and two make
four. The one is blood of the, others
blood and bone of it's bone.
The grasping and greedy monopo-
lists who have forced this government
into the paths of empire and who are
resolute that it shall remain in those
paths unquestionably believe that Mr..
McKinley's administration should be
''perpetuated." With another four
years of intensified empire they are
equal to demanding that it be again
'perpetuated." And so great is their
contempt for the common people that
they might not then be willing to rec
ognize the validity of the peoples de-
mand for a change of administration
The "perpetuating" of administra-
tions is peculiarly dangerous at the
present time. 1t might become an inn
perial habit.-St. Louis Republic.
