OUR PHILIPPINE POLICY.

Several resolutions are now before
the United States Senate in regard to
the Philippine islands. There are Mr..
Hoar's resolutions, which attempt to
formulate general policy applicable
to all times and places forever; there is
the resolution which proposes to give
up the islands to Aguinaldo, on pay
Spain, and to guarantee that he shall
retain peaceable possession for twenty
years, against all attempts on the part
of any other power to put him out; and
there is the little resolution of Senator
Beveridge of Indiana, which is so short
that it can be given in full
THAT the Philippine islands are ter
rltory belonging to the United States;
that it is the intention of the United
States to retain them as such, and to
establish and maintain such govern
ment control throughout the archipe-
lago as the situation may demand"
Mr.. Hoar like his Democratic allies
in the anti-expansion business, wants
to cross all the bridges before he even
comes in sight OF them. Mr.. Bryan in
sists that we must either let the Fill
pinos into the Union as citizens of the
United States, entitled to vote for pres
ident, or govern them as slaves, and in
Bists that the ultimate disposition of
our new possessions must be made at
once. Every one who has studied his
tory knows that that is not the way
political problems have been solved in
the past, and that it isnot in accord
with the sensible Anglo-Saxon way of
doing things. The Anglo-SaXon way is
to meet emergencies as they arise-to
do 1.-The next thing" in the best way
possible. The French have tried the
other way, attempting to theorize for
the future as well as to meet the pres
ent. The relative success of the two
methods is well illustrated in the his
tory of France and the histories of
England and the United States.
Senator Beveridge's resolution is con-
Ceived in the historic spirit of the
tace; Senator Hoars is conceived in

Yellow War on Business.

The contemplate attacks being made
upon Secretary Gage by the yellow
journals of New York are n repetition
Of the similar disgraceful assaults up
on Secretary Carlisle. Mr.. Gage is fol-
lowing the example of his predecessor
and ignoring the vicious rawlings. Every
man in New York knows how to ap-
preciate these ISLANDERS, but there are
some hysterical people and newspapers
In the back districts for whose benefit
Mr.. Gage should teach few metropoli-
tan editors n lesson. 1t is n passing
shame that the secretary of the treas
ury cannot devise simple plan for re-
storing to the market a portion of the
money it needlessly takes away with
out being accused of prostituting his
great office for private gain. 1t is u
heavy load of SANDER that secretaries
of the treasury must reckon with the
emoluments of their high post.-Louis-

What Eastern Democrats Want.

The country needs a strong opposi-
tion party as check upon the Repub-
lican party. 1t needs n united Demo-
cratic party to defeat the un-American
policies of the present administration.
If Mr.. Bryan is the patriotic, big-mind-
ed statesman he is represented to be,
he will eliminate the siXteen-to-one is
sue from politics and invite the support
of Democratic voters of every shade of
opinion upon a platform which all can
support. The salvation of his party de-
pends upon his Observation-Disclosures

the French spirit. The Beveridge reso-
luton should be passed, If for no other
reason than that it will be an announce
ment to the Filipinos and to all the
world that we propose to hold the
islands. That if we hold them we shall
give to them the best government we
can, and as great q measure of self
government as they are capable of, is
matter of course, which needs the
statement of no details.
Let us cross the bridges rs we come
to them; let us meet the emergencies
as they arise. We have enough faith
in the American people to believe that
they will be met in the future, as they
are now, in the right spirit, and that
the islands will be held not only or
mainly for our own profit, but in the
interests of civilization and Christian
ity.,

InspectorGeneral Breckenridge, re-
porting to Secretary Root, suggests the
employment of officers returned from
foreign service, and unable to perform
other duty. as professors of military
science at military colleges. There
are many indications that the reign
of peace is yet far off, and until the
millennial sun chases away the martial
clouds that brood over every land it
may be wise to instruct the youth of
the country betimes in military drill
and discipline. A defensive force will
always be necessary here as elsewhers,
and this plan offers congenial and easy
tasks to men whose health has been
injured in their country's service. and
promises to provide at least frame
work on which to build up an efficient
force to meet any national emer-
gency.

Another Crime of Cnpital.

Regretfully, but urged by n stern
sense of duty, we must record another
insidious attack made by corporate
monopoly upon the rights of what Col
onel Bryan loves to call the producing
classes. The American Steel and Wire
Company is a monster whose head Is
in Worcester, Massachusetts, 1t has
half n dozen places in Pennsylvania;
and other powerful tentacles in Chica-
go, Cleveland, Joliet and other western
towns. This monster is now affect

to make an antitrust bill views with
alarm and would have prohibited by
law, fine and Imprisonment. The
American Steel and Wire Company has
told its slaves that their wages have
been put up seven and one-half per
cent, the advance dating from Janu-
ary LIST. This boost helps about 10000
men.

some spirited talk about it from the

In view of the sinister unanimity
shown by the monopolists in raising
wages in the past year, there is but too
much reason to believe in another con-
spiracy of the plutocrats, the money
trust. Even if the crime of 1878 is still
unavenged, the crime of 1898 should
not be left uninvestigated-Ne York

Characteristic of Lawton.

A South Dakota volunteer who re-
Gently returned from the Philippines
tells a characteristic story of General
Lawton. One very hot day he ordered
n wagon to be loaded with ammunition
for the troops at n neighboring town.
When everything was ready General
Lawton came along to inspect the
stores. He noticed several kegs in the
wagon and asked what they contained.
Water for the officers" replied one
of the boys.
Jumping on the wagon, Lawton
rolled them off with his own hands,
and remarked:
I'VE need all the ammunition that

Phillips Brooks said. in the last
Thanksgiving sermon he preached: II
defy man to put his finger upon any
page of history when it was clearer
than it is today that man has some
thing to do with his brethren and that
they are his brethren. Yes, it belongs
to nations, too. No nation dare act in
sublime selfishness." Whether the re
straining motive be high or low, tho
fact of greed. envy. hate, under some
control, is a ground of hope for in

Ho Utility to Expansion Explained.

There has never been party opposed
to expansion that ever won favor with
the people. We are innately a progress
sive nation, and the party or individual
that seeks contraction or even wants to
remain in statu quo is not up with the
times and will be relegated to obscur-
ity. We must go forward or retrograde;
we cannot stand still. We are willing
to lay n wager that the fellow opposed
to expansion was never a Simon-pure
Democrat, or else he is one of those
unlucky devils that always get on the
wrong side of politics. If he is farm

Lawton's Letter.

What a terrible indictment of the
anti-imperialists! And yet we know
it is true. Not only General Lawton
but General Wheeler, General MacAr-
thur and General Funston have ex-
pressed the conviction that the insur-
rection would have ended long ago had
it not been for the hope aroused in
Aguinaldo and his fellow-leaders by
the rabid school of anti-imperialism.
Though the brave General Lawton be
dead, his gallant deeds will ever live
in the memory of his country, and the
warning contained in his letter cannot
fail to leave n lasting impression on
the minds of those who are engaged in
the unworthy work of opposing the ma
tons advancement.-Balt Mary

New Cable Lines.

France is dependent upon England

1t is noted in the report of leading
charity that the general distribution
of good wages to the industrial classes
naturally enables them to live more
literally and inclines them to lend
more assistance to relatives and ac-
quaintapces less fortunate than them
selves" Thus the benefits of general
prosperity filter down to the lowest
conditions of humanity. There is no
telling the amount of relief which
passes from the poor to the very poor.

InAurnnce for Negrnea.

Colored business men of Chicago are
about to incorporate an insurance
company exclusively for colore2D
people. The reason offered for the

persist in holding out discriminative

to partake of the benefits accruing

In one of his most beautiful and af-

some of the achievements of men who
have reached the age of fourscore
years. Such a summary, If complete,
would support the poets assertion that
old age as well as youth is opportun-
ity. Worthy of place in the list is
the service to the civilized world by
Theodor Mommsen. Past the limit of
eighty years, his energy has survived
in a remarkable measure, and he has
published a new work on Roman
criminal law, which will supplement
his authoritative contributions to the
knowledge we possess of the general
subject of Roman law. Work, under
