T.ME TO az CONSISTENT.

It is full time that the organs OF the
Republican party discovered some con-
sistent political claims with respect to the
relation between the campaign ana the
Philippine insurrection. If they wish ID
harp on the moss-grown chestnut about
Aguinaldo shedding out In hopes that
Mckinley will be defeated, they should
understand THAT they cannot, at the
same time, expect to appeal TO the intel
Ngent public by claiming that The war
is over. Yet. day after day, some Of the
most prominent Republican newspapers
are doing this very thing. They seem
wholly unmindful Of the fact that they
are constructing an absurd situation for
their party.
Almost any day in almost any Re-
publican organ can be noted alleged in
terviews with alleged F'ilipinos, or ex-
tracts from their personal correspondence
captured by our troops, containing the
declaration that the Insurgents will con-
tinue fighting till election day in this
country, in hopes that Mckinley will be
defeated. And very likely in the same
issues of the newspapers printing this
stuff will be found testimony of which
the following is sample:
Everything is extremely quiet in this
part Of the world, and the Indicate
seem to be that the war is over, so far
as organized bodies and insurgents are
concerned There are none Of these in
this whole section. We still have to scout
LOT LOT and contend with the Ladrones.
These are nothing more than small bod
les of armed thieves engaged in killing
natives for plumber. These bands have
existed and operated on these islands for
many years. Even with the harsh treat
tneht or them by Spain she was not able
10 suppress them, and it VIII take us a
long time to accomplish it with our more
civilized methods"
The above was written by Maj. Prime
to friend in Chicago, and 1t might be
noted here that none Of the information
about the insurgents holding out till after
election comes from our army officers on
the spot. They all testify as above, that
only bands of robbers are causing trou-
bic. Testimony to the contrary is fur
nished by Filipinos with strange names
and of hazy identity. Do the Republican
organs mean to convey the information
that these robber bands. which have ex-
listed for centuries and are q chronic
evil Of the Philippines, constitute an in
surrection? If not. let them show a gen
uine rebellion and cease to claim CON-
plete success for our army SO far az
the original insurrection is concerned In
that way only can they create the issue
they desire and make it hold together.
Are they willing to be logical and adj
NIT failure Of the war in the Philippines
merely as a result Of the fact that the
opposition to Mckinley in the United
States Is pleading for some of the com
mon human rights for the Filipinos? Be-
tween successful war and such a Dc lid-
cal issue at home the Republicans can
have their choice. The intelligence Ct
the American public precludes their hay
ing both.

The county commissioners should slow
up a little. This is a bad time to engage
in such an Undertaking as they have as

PERTINENT OR PARTLY 50.

It is announced that the tan ehoe Is
to be abolished. The manufacturers have
decided, after careful statistical investi-
cation, that they have lessened the saie
of shoes. The manufacturers do not go
further into the problem than this, so the
world Ia left in doubt as to whether the
tan shoes were merely more durable than
the black ones, or because by some mic
robic incubation, they lessened the popu-
lation of shoe wearers. 1t has been OBJ
served in some localities that q No. IL
tan shoe on the foot Of an irate father
has had a tendency to the encouragement
of matrimony, and consequently on the
ultimate market for the children's sizes
although whether there is anything in
the tan which Is more depressing than
the black under similar circumstances
has never been explained 1t would seem
as though the manufacturers owe the
patrons of tans an explanation.
The tan shoe is even worse of than the
horse. The horse can always have
place in poetry. Imagine Sher16an's
ride for example, with Little PHIL
charging down the valley on punctur-
able tired automobile whose internal cog
itations could have been heard even
above the din OF battle. It might have
struck stump somewhere, and turned
the tide Of the civil war, web as cost
ing the Friday afternoon school doings
the loss Of one Of their most popular Sc
lecfions. But the tan shoe has no such
heritage. The poets have, used up adj
their tan already on the checks Of bare
foot boys. and how the yellow leather can
find place in literature art is hard to
see.

CAUSES of ANARcH1sM.

The recent assassinations of leading pub
lie characters in Europe have been re-
garded by Americans with passing Won
der and regret. In Europe they are still
under public discussion; and the death OF
King Humbert at the muzzle Of an an.
archist's revolver still continues to ex-
cite the pity and indignation of all Eu-
rope.
Much as the American people love civil
liberty and little sympathy as they may
have with the brutal murder Of those
who represent supreme national author
ity under the old systems, they cannot
be induced to accept such expressions OF
popular discomfort as within the domain
of legitimate revolt against undesirable
governmental conditions Nowhere was
the act Of Humbert's assassins more
thoroughly reprobated than in the press
of the American people, daily and weekly.
But the conclusion which seems so ac-
ceptable to our European brethren, thar
this people have apologies to offer for the
forms of greed and brute force which are
embodied in the monarchical principle OF
government. is utterly without founda-
ton
IT, as Prof. Lombrosi contends, all this
thing of anarchism is the mere product of
the homicidal mania, 1t is none the less
not to be forgotten that the legacy of in
sanity has been offered to many an I'M
happy family as an inheritance, as the
fruit Of the blood guilt of kings AMI
aristocrats for ages in succession. Today
in such lands as Italy many Of the forms
Of robbery and oppression of the middle
ages are in operation in modern aspect.

bring starvation and death to the Italian
peasants, what are they but reproduc-

The conditions which produce modern
anarchism are not those which predicate
human degeneracy The injustice of the
ages still exist. The wrongs which power
infiicts on the weak have ever been, and
ever will be. an operating cause to pro-
duce outbreaks of individual crime Any
state of society which ranges itself into
camps as does European society; which
treats the poor toiling mortal as the prey

The cause and the significance of the
change in conditions are worthy Of in
vestigation by both Democrats and Re
publicans. Mr. Bryan is the same man
that he was in 1896; he represents the
same political doctrine and policy he
will admit that his opinions have not
changed on single subject but his con-
victions upon all of the issues are more
firm and vigorous than they ever were.
