heresy to which the Chicago plat
form OF 1896 was committed, and
above all. has reiterated it's adher-
ence to the free coinage OF silver.
Mr.. Bryan apparently finds it polite
for campaign purposes to keep very
quiet about free silver east OF the
Mississippi, though west OF that
river his men are allowed to Talk
about it as much as they wish. But
whether they are silent or noisy the
TACT OF their adhesion to their policy
remains, and the effort to seem to
sink the issue does not alter in the
least the fact that 1T is an issue.
The free silverites would pay
portion OF our obligations, both to
pensioners and toall public creditors
in As cent dollars, and all would be
so paid sooner or later. The newt
able result would be not only astun-
ming blow to the national reputa-
ton for good faith, but the most
widespread panic and ruin in our in
dustrial life.
1t is obvious therefore that our
opponents continual effort to evade
discussing free silver and to try to
gain for the free silverites eastern
votes by lulling the east to sleep on
this question cannot possibly al ter
the fact that they remain committed
to their old financial policy.
ct ought not to be necessary to
waste time in stating that miiitarism
and Imperialism are twin hugbaars
only fit to brighten political children.
There is no more m ilitarism in keep
ing garrisons in the Philippines I'M
til order is restored than in sending
troops to an Indian reservation
when an outbreak il threatened.
Relative to the pc pufation OF the
country our army is not appreclably
larger than it was exactly Il century
ugo. 1t is smaller than it was eighty
years ago under President Monroe.
1t is no larger than it was thirty
years ago Wien we were having serl-
ious troubles with the lndi ans on the
western plains. Ii not told so by
fervid orators with an outside plr-
pose to serve, hardly n human being
in this country would have any per-
sonal knowledge OF the fact that our
army had been either increased or
decreased. To inyote the spectre OF
miIitarism as an excuse scarcely
seems worthy OF serious PEG pie.
CAS- for Imperialism, we have the
same right and title to the Ph'ltp'
pines that we have tn Hawaii and
Alaska. II we are morally and legal
ly bound to leaye the one, we are
morally and legally bounl to leave
the Others, and lnciden tally to sir-
render New Mexico and Idaho, and
pretty much every other western
state, to the aboriginal inhabitants.
The cry that ''The constition ollows
the flag. OF course means nothing.
Ninety.s seven years ago Pres ioent
Jefferson acquired the present lndi-
an Territory. just exactly as Presi-
dent Mckinley acquired the Philip
pines, but it has never BEEN given
statehood. 1t il mere question OF

A proclamati on issued by Aguin-

the ha nds OF the war department at
Washington, shows conclusively
that the Filipinos are prolonging

more Imperialism in preserving order
in the philippines than there is in
our dealings with the tribes OF Indi.
an Territory. Ii Judge Taft and his
associates, and General Macarthur
and his fellow officers, in the Philip
pines, are representatives OF the inn
perial idea, then SO is every officer
and every Indian agent on Sioux
or Ute or Comanche reservation. 1t
is difficult to discuss patiently such
an assumption.
I'VE cannot surrender the Philip
pines in the first place becauseo OF our
duty 10 ourselves, and in the next
place because Of our duty to tn, pee
pie OF the islands. Perhaps | ought
rather to put our duty to the islam d
ers first. So far from bringing war
to the islands, we give them for the
first time in all their history chance
for permanent peace. So far from
depressing them, we bring to them
for the first time in their history the
precious gift o. liberty. The insur
gents represent but fraction of the
whole population. As q whole the
islanders have had no voice in set
ting mp the insurgsnt government.
The law OF our national life has
been the law OF expansion, and we
have been great exactly in accord
ance as we have dared to do great
tasks. Ii the men who met in the
first and second continental con.
crosses had acted on the principles
protested by the socalled anti-imper.
ialists oftoday, wewould never have
been a nation-certainly never ma
ton that would have inspired the
respect Of the world. Ohio, Indiana
Illinois and all western states are
part Of this Union soiely because
your forefathers expanded, and
pressed westward at the expense O
our dnsky foes.
There is one feature Of the anti
expansion argument upon which il
is impossible TO Law too much stress
This feature is Tie siace9ity of its
chief opponents. Both in the plat
form OF the Kansas City convention
md in the speech OF acceptance OF
its nominee, the leading argument
against our holding the Philippines
is that based upon the consent OF
the governed theory. Nothing but
Indignation can be felt for such an
argument in view of the fact that it
is made by or on behalf OF the very
men who are Mt this moment either
suppresaing or wiling TO benefit by
the Suppression OF the coiored vote IN
certain states. 1t is set forth with
strident emphasis TINT no man ~ go
good as to be fit to govern another.
Yet at the very time this argnmen'
is being made, those making it are
amending or conniving at the
amendment Of the constitution in
certain states, so rs To provide that
the white man shall govern the black
Men may honestly differ as to ex-
pansion: men may honestly differ as
to the i,eel and propriety Of the con
st:tutional amendments referred to;
but no honest and sincere man can
in good firth take the attitude that
the consent OF the governed doc
trine applies in the Phil ppines and
not in America.

there was not much to do by the

The rainfall the past week has
been 30 abundant, that it swelled

Oil Works of st. Martinville, will
erect during the summer two first
class ginneries, with round bale
system, one will be located at
Bresux Bridge, the other at Ar

a large quantity of cotton. But,
with little encouragement for su-
gar, there is no doubt that a large
portion of the lands of those Sec
tions will be planted in sugar
cane, as the profits of this later
crop are so much larger than cot
ton. Cotton, however, will always
remain one of the money crops of
this parish, particularly to the
