Such portion OF the debate in the SON
ate yesteid day over the Hay Pauncefote
treaty as has been made public indics'es
that the senators have heard the voice
of the people in no uncertain way, and
that that voice Is decidedly against the
ratification Of the treaty IN Its present
form.
1t is gratifying to know that one OF
the strongest speeches against ihe treaty
MS it now stands was made by Senator
Teller Of Colorado, and he was ably sup.
ported by number OF Republican SEN
atore. While they desire to do every.
thing possible to assist the administra.
tion they cannot See their way clear to
vote for treaty OF snch vital importance
and which gives up long vested rights OF
the United States.
There IL no disposition nmoug those
In opposition to tho treuty TO embarrass
the administration in any way, and on
the other hand il is hintcd that even Mr.
Mckinley himself is lukewarIa GU the
subject. and that were he in the senate
he might oppose various sections OF the
treaty in common with other Republi-
cans. But ihasmuch as the treaty has
the name of his secretary Of state at
tached thereto, he will not allow any OPP
position which he mny have Tor the trea.
tv To harama knoup
II would, however, be . serious blum.
der, not TO say an affront to good busi-
ness methods, for the United States to
undertake to construct a canal at an OK
pensA of s2op ,o00,0O and the taxpayers
have no moro rights or privileges in this
canal than other nations. According to
the pending instrument the United
States would have no right to put po-
liceman at any point on the canal or
even soldier to prevent the canal from
being destroyed by government or pro-
pie hostile to the United States. Surely
the regard which this nation has for
Great Britain will not permit it TO nePo.
tiats treaty at such az outlay and with
90 little regard for the military and naval
Sxigencios which are likely to arise at ri.
most any time.--Coiorsdo Springs Telc-

INDIA AND SILVER.

Moreton Freweu writes from Lcndon
to General A. j. Warner, of Ohio, that
the schsme Of imposing gold currency
upon India has broken down. The
facts OF the case seem to bear hun out
in this statmant. After the closing Of
the Indian mints to The free coinage OF
silver rupees, the plan was to accumu-
late gold reserve by which TO hold the
ont standing rupees up TO iYed gold
interchangeability, and to melt down
and to melt such rupees as came
into the government treasury IN the
course OF the operations and sell the
bullion for more gold, with which to re.
deem more silver rupees. II has been
difficult. however, TO force the g Id into
circulation. TIE natives are unfamiliar
with that kind Of money, and in coun.
ty where labor is paid Elk cents day y
gold sovereign becomes an impossible
element in the common circulation. The
upsbot Of the whole matter is that the
Indian government has been forced into
the coinnge Of silver rupees on its own
account, and is now as busily at work
udding to the silver circulation OF InLia
as it was awhile ago in re,inclDg the
same. To the Indian governments
purchases Of silver for this coinage, q.
mounting to some 30,00O,00e ounces
since February, is attributed the receut
strength OF the silver bullion market.
Mr. Frewen thinks that gradually the
government Of India will be forced to
reopen the mipts to the free coinage af
rupees. The yellow man, he says has
pronounced decidedly for the white dol.
lar, and in fact his hope Of a general
restoration OF silver under r bimetalic
system fnds great encouragement.
Whether sonndly or not remains to be
seen. The chances oan hardly be ssid
to be IN his 'avor.-Sprngtield Rspubi.

WHAT CALIFOIFIANS NOW EY.

From the San Francisco Chronicle tRep).
What they desire snh what hey OK.
pect to get is something entirely differ.
.nt, namely the kind with which they
have had direct experience. In other
words, they expect TO see tue Phillip.
pines made part Of the American
Union, just as Califorin, Oregon and
Washington vero made by the process
Of expansion. They do not desire and
would protest against the adoption Of q
policy OF exploitation of the islands, for
they clearly recognize that it would
overreach itself.
Speaking OF California. and the Chrop.
icie may iairly do so. as 1t sounded the
key note Oh the expansion question dur.
irg the campaign, the people Of this
atate hope TO see such relations estab.
lished with the Philippines that great
commerce between the ,sIsnds aud the
mainland will be the speedy result. 1t
Is only by establishing free trade be.
tween the Philippines and the rest Of
tho union that this car be accomplished.
II that is done great shipping industry
will be created, tho capital for which
will he provided by the whole ot the
United States, but whose chisi business
will be doue in the ports OF California,
Oregon and Washington. This md the
attendant benefits are what We GEEK, and
it wns because the people OF California
had intelligence enough to perceive
them Hnu isith enough 10 believe in the
promise Of Mckinley that the Philip.
pines would be treated ss other territory
acquired by the Uniied States has been
treated, that the sta;o gave him 10000
