washington Post, Republican,
An officer of the United States army,
viewing the POLITICAL situation from a
non-partisan standpoint, advances an
argument that viii strike the average
voter as novel, and. while the conclu-
sion only offers the choice of two evils,
the method by which that point is
reached is a departure from the aver
age hackneyed pleading. In giving his
views, the officer says:
II want one of my boys to be in the
army. Whether we want it or not the
course OF events has made the United
States a great military power, and a
military power is nothing without an
army. 1t is all very well for politicians,
for party purposes. to talk about stand
ing armies, CaeSariSm, militariSm, etc,
but facts are stronger than political
slush, and events greater than Senti-
mental devotion to liberty.
History is repeating itself in Ameri-
ca No republic has ever become a
great military nation without becom-
ing an empire-AuguStu concealed I'M
der the forms of the Roman republic
the power and spirit of monarchy.
The inevitable result of great wealth
and prosperity in a free republic is to
breed discomfort and envy among the
lower order of society. Political evolu-
ton seems to require, by indirect,
when direct usurpation is not to be
tolerated, the gradual absorption of
power by the higher and weather.

BOUTELLE'S SEAT IN DANGER
philadelphia North American1

philadelphia North American)
Having reelected Representative
Boutelle to congress by about 5000
plurality. the Republicans of the Fourth
Maine district are now greatly alarmed
lest they have thrown away their votes
by choosing a man who has been con-
fined in an insane asylum since last
winter The Fifty-seventh congress
VIII not meet until December 1901 but
even if Boutelle should have sufficient
ly recovered by that time, there are
grave doubts whether he could legally
take the oath of office. Not being pos
sesSed of his mental faculties at the
time of his election, it is held by some
lawyers that he was legally dead, and
was ineligible to stand as a candidate.
There is also some question as to
whether he has signed the nomination
papers
The Democrats are making the most
OF their opponents blunder, and are al
ready discussing what action shall be
taken to contest Boutelle's election.
Thomas White, the defeated Demo-
cratic candidate, for personal reasons
has shown reluctance to being a party
to any attempt to unseat Boutelle, but
The national Democratic committee has
announced positively that a contest will
be instituted. and that il will furnish
the necessary funds for that purpose.
If the next house should he Demo-
cratic Ihefe Is little PROBABILITY JnaC
BouteIle will be seated.
In any event. the Republicans have
made a serious mistake. Unless Bou-
telle is sworn in he cannot even be
paired against a Democrat, and one
seat on the Republican side will be
vacant. If the house should unseat him,
the Democrats would make a clear gain
of one vote. which they could never
hope to secure by an election. Taken
either way. the Maine Republicans
have INDUCED in an altogether need
less display of sentiment at the ex-
pense of the national party.

She is very little girl, only years
old, but in the short period of her few
years she has enjoyed a large expert
ence of life with dolls of all kinds and
descriptions, who. in the course of their
existence under her loving but not al
ways kind administrations, have under
gone many vicissitudes. So the little
5-year-old, when there came a real live

something of a connOiSSeur in children.
When it was put into her arms, this

Isn't that a nice baby" cried the
nurse with the joyous pride with which

and is being done TO bring the benefits Of liberty
and good government to these wards of the Ma
ton. Every effort has been directed to their
peace and prosperity, their advancement and
wellbeing, not for our aggrandizement nor for
pride Of might not for trade or commerce, not
for exploitation but for humanity and civiliza-
ton and for the protection Of the vast majority
Of the population, who welcome our sovereignty,

mand after the surrender Of Manila by the
Spanish army to enter the city that they
might loot it and destroy those not in sympathy
with their selfish and treacherous designs.
Nobody who viii avail himself of the facts
will longer hold that there was any alliance be-
tween our soldiers and the insurgents, or that
any promise Of independence was made to them
Long before their leader had reached Manila
they had resolved if the commander of the
American Navy would give them arms with
which to fight the Spanish army they would
later turn upon US, which they did murderously
and without the shadow of cause or justification.
New-York tribune., 1900-10-25

There may be those without the means of full
informa tion who believe that we were in alliance
with the insurgents and that we assured them
that they should have independence. To such
let me repeat the facts: on May 26, 1898, Ad-
miral Dewey was instructed by me to make no
alliance with any party or faction in the Philip
pines that would incur liability TO maintain
the cause in the future, and he replied under
date Of June 6, 1898: Have acted according to
spirit Of Departments instructions from the be-
ginning, and I have entered into alliance
with the insurgents or with any faction. This
squadron can reduce the defences OF Manila at
any moment, but it is considered useless until
the arrival of sufficient United States forces to
retain possession" In the report Of the first
Philippine Commission, submitted on November
2. 1899. Admiral Dewey. one Of its members,
said:
No alliance of any kind was entered into with
Aguinaldo, nor was any promise of independence
made to him at any time.

patton and until the surrender OF Manila, state
that there was alliance with the insurgents
and no promise TO them OF independence. On
august IT. 1893. General Merritt was instructed
that there must be no joint occupation of Ma
Mia with the insurgents General Anderson,
under date Of February 10, 1900. says that he
was present at the interview between Admiral
Dewey and the insurgent leader and that in
this interview Admiral Dewey made promises
whatever. He adds: He (Aguinaldo) asked me
II my Government going to recognize his
Government. I answered that I was there
simply in military capacity; that could not
acknowledge his Government because had no
