look with disfavor upon any attempt on the part of European governments to main tain unwilling or forcible sovereignty over the people living on this side of the Atlantic.
 The position taken by the Republican leaders, and more recently set forth by the Republican candidate for the Presidency, viz: That we cannot protect a nation from outside interference without exercising sovereignty over its people, is an assault upon the Monroe doctrine, for while this argument is at this time directed against the proposition to give to the FilipinoS both independence and protection, it is equally applicable to the republics of Gen. tral and South America. If this govern ment cannot lend its strength to another republic without making subjects of its people, then we must either withdraw our protection from the republics to the south of us or absorb them. Under the same plea that the guardian nation must exert an au- thority equal to it's responsibility, Euro pean nations have for centuries exploited their wards, and 1t is a significant fact that the Republican party should accept the European idea of a protectorate at the same time that 1t adopts @ European colo nial policy. There is no excuse for this abandonment of the American idea. We have maintained the Monroe doctrine for three-quarters of century. The expense to us has been practically nothing, but the pTOlectlON tlaS peen DeyoHu value to our sister republics. If a Filipino republic Is erected upon the ruins of Spanish tyranny, its protection by us will be neither diff ficult nor expensive. No European nation would be willing for any other European nation to have the islands, neither would any European nation be willing to provoke a war with us in order to obtain posses sion of the islands. If we assert sovereign ty over the F'ilipinos we will have to de- fend that sovereignty by force, and the Filipinos will be our enemies; if we pro- tect them from outside interference, they will defend themselves and will be our friends. If they show as much determina- tion in opposing the sovereignty of other nations as they have shown in opposing our sovereignty, they will not require much assistance from us.

Washington, Sept. 17.-The secret service ias received a telegram announcing the ar est in New Orleans of Peter Damose for having in his possession 1So counterfeit sil- yer coins and 45 plaster casts for making he same.
 A week or more ago Chief Wilkie re- .eived a number of complaints from the towns of Fulton and Thomas, Pa., stating that large numbers of bogus coins were be- mg coined and put into circulation in that section. An operative from the Washing ton office was put on the case, and today Acting Chief Moran received telegram to tbe effect that Will Scott, Bernade Bone brake and William Fraker had been ar- rested and charged with putting the coins In circulation.

profit by large appropriations. A surplus in the treasury offers constant temptation to extravaganza, and extravaganza in turn compels a resort to new means of taxation which Is being kept in the background un- til the campaign Is over, is a fair illustra- tion of the imposition that will be attempt ed when there Is a considerable amount of money idle in the treasury. The rehabli- tation of the merchant marine, laudible in itself, is made the pretext for expediture of public money for large ship owners and in the interests of a transportation mo- nopoly. The government being only the agent of the people, has no right to collect from the people taxes beyond the legit- mate needs of the government honestly and effectively administered, and public serv- ants should exercise the same degree of

Hartford was to have been represented
at yesterdays ceremony by full rep
iesentation from the institution and
the entire two hundred and forty pu-
pills expected to attend. The severity
OF the weather, however. kept at home
the majority of the girls and most
of the younger children. Those who
did arrive were however. given a
royal reception, and were under the
especial care Of the Womens Relief
society and ladies of the q. a. r
who served them dinner and supper
In the Burr building and made them
feel entirely nt home during their short
visit.
The members If Company I, of Eas-

of men who were through the great

did not a little Dragging regarding
their musicians. In addition to this,
the post brought along a twelve-pound
cannon and proudly declared itself
ready for action.
Bauer's band divided honors with
the crack musical organization of the
Ninth regiment, and the little fellows
who played the spirited marching airs
for the soldiers orphans also did fine
ly. They marched along, their faces
blue with cold, but not a complaint
was heard, and they handled their in
struments like veterans.
Excellent order was maintained in
the big crowd by the police. There
were q large number of patrolmen
scattered among the spectators and
under the direction of Lieutenant John
Davis and City Detective John Moir
they cleared the road for the marchers
and held the crowding throng back in

Rev. DR.. S. C.. Logan was formerly
chaplain of the Thirteenth, and the
selecting of him to offer up the OPEN
