THAT SULU TREATY.

The Democratic candidate for the Presidency
is evidently not overfamiliar with the Const-
tuition of the United States, about which he
talks so much, nor does he seem to carry
copy of that instrument with him on his talk
ing tour Otherwise he would scarcely have
used the following language in his reply to AS
sistant Secretary Meiklejohn;
I am in receipt of your favor of the 9th in
regard to the Sulu treaty. 1t Is true that the
President, two months after the signing OF the
treaty sent to General Otis the instructions
which you quote. You will note that the treaty,
or agreement, as the President describes II, was
confirmed and approved subject to the action
OF Congress and the only exception that ne
made that in regard to Article X relating
to slavery. You can but know, however, that
since the President sent those instructions the
Republican party with the approval OF the Ad-
ministration. has adopted the theory that the
Constitution does not follow the flag, and there
fore, the Thirteenth Amendment does not in
terfere with slavery in the Sulu Archipelago.
A more careful man. not familiar with the
Constitution, would have sent out and borrowed
a copy before attempting to quote 1t as au-
thority Then he would have found that the
first section of the Thirteenth Amendment reads
thus:
Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, ex-
cept a punishment for crime, whereof the
party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist
within. the United States or any place subject
to their Jurisdiction.
The President authorized the agreement with
the Sultan of Joo in strict accord with the
Constitution, knowing full well that the Thir-
teenth Amendment was absolutely mandatory
as to the exception made relating to slavery.
Even Mr.. Bryan ought to be able to see that
his reply to Mr.. MeiklejOhn can deceive no one
who is not as densely ignorant of the funda-
mental law of the land as he makes himself
out to be. And If he could stop his attempts
to excite class hatred long enough to study
the subject he would learn that the Thirteenth
Amendment contains the only authorization in
the Constitution for the extension of its pro
visions, of their own force, beyond the boun-
diaries of the United States. If the whole in
strument does, as Mr.. Bryan contends, follow
the flag wherever it may go, perhaps he can
explain why the words cor any place subject
to their jurisdiction" were so carefully inserted
in this particular paragraph and omitted every
where else.

is not contrary to the precedents of California
The government Of an acquired territory outside
of the Constitution is not contrary to the ira
ditioDs Of Florida. The acquisition Of territory
not contiguous with the United States and not
intended to be taken into the Union as State
is not contrary TO the traditions of Alaska. The
expansion of our territorial possessions is not
contrary to the unbroken traditions of the
Nation from the beginning to the present time.
On the whole. we are inclined to think there
is ample ground for declaring that the attitude
Of the United States in retaining the Philippines
was and is polite moral and in exact accord
with the traditions of the Nation; and no ground
for abandoning these conclusions because of
sweeping and Incorporate, If not inconsiderate,
contradictions by a professor who has been
travelling.

of each county were appointed by the County
Judge. The House Of Representatives in which
the Goebel party has a clear majority, has been
insisting on the passage of bill giving the Re
publcans an ineffective one-third representation
on State, county and precinct boards, thus de-
stroying the one safeguard left them under the
Goebel law-an equal division Of minor officers,
clerks. watchers. etc.-at the different polling
places throughout the State. Such a change
would only be from bad to worse, and both the
Republicans and the conservative Democrats In
the State Senate seem to prefer the known evils
of the present system to those which would be
likely to develop on the first trial Of such an
illusory compromise"
Democratic prospects in Kentucky are dismal
enough, whichever horn of the dilemma the
Democratic managers at Frankfort choose. II
they allow any one of the Senate's measures to
pass they risk defeat at the polls, which they
will scarcely be able to reverse through the
connivance of an Election Board responsible to
no one and holding title only from a long since
defunct State Legislature. If they adjourn
without action of any sort they invite the popu-
lar reproaeh of not daring to alter q system
whose evils they have publicly confessed, and
they will challenge the rejection of fraudu-
lent electoral return by Congress which may
think it wise TO warn conspirators of the Goebel
type that popular sovereignty is not to be sup
planted in any Commonwealth by form Of rule
under which State officers are to be named not
by the people, but by self-perpetuating and
irresponsible board of functionaries unknown
alike to State customs and to the State Con

PROFESSOR LADD ON THE PHILIPPINES.

PROFESSOR LADD ON THE PHILIPPINES.
Professor Ladd. of Yale University, declares,
on the basis of his personal observations on
trip around the world, that "the attitude of the
United States in retaining the Philippines is
''impoitic immoral and contrary to all Of our
traditions" Whether it is polite or impolitc
may be passed by as a matter OF opinion con-
corning which men differ There certainly
seems to be good ground for the former as
for the latter view. Seeing that we have
acquired possession Of large and rich territory
without provoking the antagOnism Of any other
nation, the man who thinks the transaction was
piece of good policy is scarcely TO be dismissed
as an idiot, even if a university professor does
not agree with him.
The second objection raised by Professor
Ladd, that the American attitude is immoral
may be in part a matter of opinion though it
may well be held to be in part a matter of fact
In far as ii is the former ii would be interest
ing TO know upon what particular details the
opinion OF immortality is based. Was ii immoral
to strike a blow openly and manfully at the
Power that had declared war and was actually
Wagmg war against usf Was it immoral 10
destroy a corrupt. cruel and despotic Govern
ment and substitute one that is honest humane
and liberal? Was It immoral to paw the ousted
Government an equitable sum, equivalent to
the public debt it had contracted on their ac-
count, as recompense for the permanent better
ments it had made in the islands? Is it i'm
moral TO suppress disorder and TO uphold law?
These were and are the features of this Govern
ments attitude in retaining the Philippines
which Professor Ladd denounces as immoral
The third point raised by Professor Ladd Is
that the American attitude in the Philippines is
contrary TO all of our traditions" That seems
10 be n question Of fact. and the facts seem TO
be contrary TO Professor Ladds contention.
The acquisition of territory by conquest. con
firmed by subsequent treaty, is not contrary 10
the traditions established in the case Of Califor-
MIA The transfer Of sovereignty over numer-
Gus people without favorable plebiscitum is
not contrary to the traditions Of Louisiana. The
payment Of a sum of money to the ceding Gov
Grnment for battarnaats az other considerations
