we're told all of our state secrets. the
administration has him so thoroughly
whipped. according to the statements
of its friends, that the information
would be Of no assistance to him.. As
the censorship at Manila has been re-
Taxed on account of the improved con-
GitiOns. it seems to be high time for :.
relaxation of the censorship which the
administration maintains in Nashing-
ton over the mysteries of its Philip
pine policy.
1t is possible the administration may
be able to give satisfactory eNplana-
tions in to the resolutions Of
inquiry introduced by Mr.. Pettigrew
and other senators. 1t is also possible
that those who seek information may
be on the wrong track and that the
administration alone may be right.
Still. the persistent refusal of imperial-
list senator's to permit the resolutions
to 90 through the usual course in the
senate is suspicious and iustifies the
conclusion that the suppression Of all
requests for information has been
adopted as a part of the administra-
TONS policy. Senator Hoar's protest
against the adoption of such a policy
was as timely as it was energetic. If
senator's are to be denied information
which can do no possible harm to the
unblic service information which
thew acquire for their guidance and
the discharge of their public duties
the senate might as we'll be abolished,
| as Mr.. Hoar suggested.
If the administration is determined
| to withhold information in regard to
lis Philippine policy or other matters
OF public importance, it might shut off
embarrassing or d~isagreeable ques-
tions by adopting an imperial remedy
ard su~spending the sessions of either
branch of congress which is disposed
- make trouble. A~guinaldo. defeated
and fleeing to escape capture, may be
aided not only by resolutions of in
quiry. but also by the right of free
speech which congressman now enjoy.
The entire policy Of the government
should be shaped with a view to giving
Aouinaldo no aid or comfort-al-
though the administrations cham
pions say he is beaten and harmless.
AS long as the Filipino leader is at
large congress must be muzzled. even
if TIE public interests sutfer.-Balti-

FACTS SHOULD BE GIVEN.

Friends of the administration. some
of them in official positions, have
Toasted of late that the "Filipino re-
bellion" is practically ended; thai
.AguinaiGo's forces have been scattered
and are no longer able to make an eff
fective resistance. From their stand
point the Philippines will soon be
"paclfied,' and. as there is now no or
eanized army to be fought. but merely
a few predatory bands" to be put
down. the situation is not alarming,
provided the administration has been
correctly informed as to the condi-
tons in the islands,. In view of these
circumstances, therefore. there APP
pears TO be no reason why the admin
l%stration should suppress information
concerning the Philippines or ignore
the requests Of senators and repre-
sentatiNes who are anxious to get at

Mississippi has for 4 number of years en-

source she has received annually large net in

her own agents to control them and to direct their
labor she has been able to protect her prisoners
from undue severity OF treatment, and in both
instances has proven the wisdom of the farming
system. The State now owns several farms
giving employment to an inconsiderable number
of her convicts, out most of them, by far, are
worked on lands belonging to individuals, which
have either been rented by the board Of control
or worked on shares, with profit both to the
owners of said lands and to the State. The
