While no blame can be attached 10
the Regular Republican members Of tho
Legislature for compromising with tho
Addicka Republicans for the purposes
of Organization, this action need not
prevent their continued hostility to the
election Of Mr., Addicl,s to the United
States Senate. II was necessary, as
we'll as advisable, that the Legislature
should be promptly organized, and MS
the Republicans are in the majority in
each house, Republican organization
was also advisable. But tho Regular
Republicans who consented to the or
gani7ation compromise, in no manner
involve themselves 10 any sort Of agree
mont express or implied, to go into q
general caucus for tho Senatorships,
knowing, as they must, that such a
caucus would be controlled by the
friends OF Mr.. Addicks.
With respect to the Senatorships, the
duty Of the Regular Republican mem
bers is plain. They should hold their
own caucus and nominate two good
Regular Republicans. And they should
90 into the regular and Joint sessions of
the Legislature, and vote solidly for
these two men, from first to last.
II tie Democratio members Of the
Legislature do their duty, the Sena
torial contest need not be prolacted.
They should cast their solid vote for
the two candidates named by the Reeu-
lar Republicans. II they do this, Mr..
Addioks will surely be beaten. More
than that, he will find the Senator
ships filed, with no inducement for
him to make another effort to secure
the coveted prize for the next four
years. Leave the Senatorships open
through a deadlock, and he will be
right into the fight again at the next
election.
The people could have eifectually dis.
posed of Mr.. Addicks' chaDcss by
choosing Democratic Legislature al

not do this, neither did they elect an

1t ID stated In dispatch from Berlin
that the papers Of that city reprint
rapport Of an interview by Prince
Herbert Bismarck to q representative
OF II Curfisre Della Sera Of Milan, in
which the Prince 10 represented as
saying that the great German indus
trial organizations, with the approval
OF Emperor William and Count Won
Buelow, Imperial Chancellor, have
compromise with the Agrariana and
will meet the United States with a
sharp protective policy. Fifteen dollars
a ton duty Oh grain is mentioned as an
illustration.
Some OF the papers cast doubt upon
the authenticity Of the interview, but
the Bciliner Tagehlatt sees In IL a
freoh confirmation Of the recent state
ments Of Count Won Klinckowstroem
the Agrarian loader. The Tageblatt
severely deprecates o tariff war with
the United Statea. the cost CT which.
IL contends, would he borne by German
trade, Germnny's Furnishing shipping
and German consumers generally.
The National Zeitung ssys;"w can
not believe that diplomatist like
Prince Herbert Bismarck would openly
advocate policy favoring Russia at
the expense of the United States.''
The semi-ofiicial journals, comment
ing upon the interview, deulare that
nothing has been settled regarding the
tariff.

In speech at luncheon given in
his honor by the Everyday Club Of
Chicago, Monday, Sixto Lopez, the
able representative of the Philippine
government in this country, said:
when Dewey arrived at Manila the
Filipiuos had conquered the Spaniards
everywhere in the islands but at
Manila. Then the Filipinos estab.
lished an independent government
without any protest from the United
States, Later this independent govern
msnt Of the Filipinos was assailed. We
resisted this assault and have kept on
lighting to retain our Independence.
Everything the United States has
said 1t wanted in the Philippines we
are willing TO yield, Coaling stations,
ports and harbors it can have. All
these things can be provided foi by
treaty stipulation. The Filipinos. how
ever, will not give IN their in
dependeroe. II any promise OF future
independence is made we will lay down
our arms and confer with representa-
tives of the United States.
''Our government Ia intact, and
under present conditions is absolutely
capable Of holding its own against any
nation. The 9,000,0 600 Filipinos are
unit in their support of the government
and In their determination to retain
their Independence They are homo
geneous people, speaking one language,
which has different dialects, but not
as many dialects as will be found in
England. OF the semi-ciyilized tribes
there are about 100000 people, in.
Guiding the Sulus, the Central Min
danaos, and the IRorrotes of Northern
Luzon, but they should not be CON
founded with the Filipino govern
ment."
And why should not the United
States government recognize the
Philippine government and assist 1t 10
becoming permanently established.
Our treatment Of thess people has
been a mistake from the first. They
came to us as allies and We have made
them enemies. They resent the assump-
tion that they could be purchased iron,
Spain for twenty million dollars, and
now We are endeavoring TO compel, by
force Of arms, a compliance With the
terms Of that purchase.
The Mckinley administration should
at once suspend hostilities in the
Philippines and treat with the people
on the basis of recognition of their
Independence. This is the only fair
and manly course left for the United
States TO pursue. Af1

To End tho war IN the philippines.

During the consideration of the Army
Reorganization bill In the United
States Senate, Friday afternoon,
Senator Hoar OF Massachusetts offered
the following amendment;
Provided, That no further military
force shall be used 10 the Philippine
Islands, except suoh as may BIO neces.
safy TO ksep ordur in places there now
actually unde' the penpeaDle control Of
the United States and to protect pvr-
sons or property to whom, In the jidg-
ment OF the President, protection may
be due from the United States, until
toe President shall have first pro-
claimed amnesty for all political
offences committed against the United
States Ia tho Philippines; and, IL IN
his power, shall have agreed upon an
armistice with persons now 10 hostility
to the United States; and shall have
invited such number, not less than ten,
as he shall think desirable, of the lead
ers or Representatives OF the persons
now hostile to the United States there,
to come to the United States and state
their wishes ard the condition, chnrac-
ter and wishes OF the people Of the
Philippine Islands 10 tue Executive
and Congress; aud shall have offered
to secure to them safe conduct TO come,
abide and return; and shall have pro-
pided at the public charge for the ex.
penses OF thslr trans ortation both
ways and Their stay in this country for
reasonable and sufficient time for
such purposes.
This is fair and honorable PROPOSE
tion. and one that the Filipinos would
no doubt gladly accept. 1t would at
once put an end to hostilitiea. and lead
to lasting peacs that would be honor
able to both sides.
1t will be no discredit to Congress
to incorporate this amendment into the
law. On the contrary, it would be to
the credit Of the country. We are q
great nation, and the Filipinos are a
weak, feeble people In comparison.
But they are brave and patriotic, and
have for years been fighting for liberty
and independence in manner that
should command our admiration and
receive our endorsement, instead OF
being opposed by our armed forces.
We are strong enough and great
enough to DO magnanimous. And we
can be so by adopting the Hoar amend
mont sand thereby extending helping
hand to the people Of the Philippines,
instead Of persistiug in the unmanly
attempt to make them unwilling sub.

The Treasury Bureau Of Statistics Mt
Washington has received and made
public the detailed report Of the coin-
merce and conditions Of tho British
colonies for the year 1899, compared
with preceding years. The colonies
last year furnished market for over
s50q000, 900 worth Of British goods.
The report shows that the British
colonies throughout the world imported
in 1899 goods valued at over billion
dollars, and OF this amount over
$500, 00o,oo0 were from the United
Kingdom,
England's largest colony, of course,
is British India. Its total imports in
1899 are given in round terms at
$50, 100000 Tor about $500. 900, O00),
Of which $40, 900, 900 Tor about 5000, :
600, 0oo) were imported from the United
Kingdom.
Next in Importance Is Canada, whose
total imports amount to e23, 900. 900,
but which takes only f6.67s,0oO in
value from the United Kingdom, the
chief reason OF this small proportion
being her immediate proximity to the
United States, which can supply more
promptly and conveniently her varied
wants.
Next In Importance is the group of
Australasian colonies, and 1t may be
assumed that the imports Of the
Australian continent 10 1899 were not
far from 940, 600, 600, OF which the
United Kingdom, although situated on
the opposite side Of the globe, fur
nished over G26, 600, 600 10 value.
The value Of the importations OF the
British West Indies In 1899 Is CO, I'll, 600

900 Tor about s13.6j6,000) were from

We are sorry to see a disposition
upon the part OF some OF the Demo-
cratic members Of the House of Repre-
sentatives at Dover, to be captious,
not to say unjust, In their attitude
towards legislation, from desire, it
Is alleged, TO force the Republicans to
abandon the contest of Representative
Scotten's seat by Harvey d. Learned.
II this u the desire Of the Demo-
cratic members, We feel sure that they
are taking the wrong course Of pro.
cedure. They are more likely to anger
the Republicans, and make them de.
terminsd to continue the contest to the
ond. And IL the latter choose, they
have the votes to unsest Mr.. Sootten
and seat Mr.. Learned.
Pwioe already the Democratic Repre-
sentatives have prevented the passage
Of a bill making an appropriation for
the expenses attendant upon the In
auguration OF Governor elect HUM
and Lieutenant Governor elect Cannon.
The amount proposed is not large
scotland there should not be a word
against the measure. As was said
during the debate Tuesday, the in
auguration will take place, whether
any appropriation is made or not, but
1t would be reflection upon the
entire State, and not upon any one
political party, for the Legislature to
refrain from making An appropriation
for the purpose.
To an outsider IL would seem that II
tho Democrats want to suppress the
Scotch contest they will endeavor to
conciliate the Regular Republicans,
not embitter them. The debate In the
House, Tuesday afternoon, was de.
cidedly acrimonious, and there is nc
doubt that hard feelings we're en-.
gendered. Instead Of this, the most
cordial relations should be mairtaiue
by the Democratic and Regular Re-.
publican meEbers throughout the
session.
But aside from the question Of policy,
Democratic votes should not be with,
held from any proper measures Of
legislation, no matter whether any
political advantage can be gained o,
not Every measure should be con
sidered on its merits, and treated
accordingly. We are glad to note tha'
three of the Democratic members de
oiined to follow their colleagues il
defeating the Inauguration programme
Tuesday, and we hope that others will
vote on the same side. The inaugu
ration SHOULD be made creditabl,
affair.

Referring to the financial condition
of the road commissioners OF st. Georges
hundred, the Middletown Transcript
says that they have q debt Of about
$4,000, part Of which Is bearing 6 per
cent interest. 1t suggests that the
entire debt be funded by an issue Of 4
per cent bonds, and that provision be
made for distinguishing the debt at the
rate Of $1,000 per year. Tho suggestion
is good one. and should impress itself
upon the road commissioners of the
other hundreds. It has been shown by
the report of the committee appointed
to audit the accounts of road CON-
missioners that the finances OF all are
In Tad condition, with u large total of

ing this indebtedness and preventing

The Rhiladelphis Evening Telegraph
sizes UP the Senatorial situation In
Delaware ia the following manner: o-
It will require twenty votes in
the JOINT con eention of tile Delaware
Legislature to elect Senator. Adj
dicks, the gasman, has eighteen so.
called Union" Republicans and one
renegade Democrat in line, so that he
lacks eight OF the number necessary.
The Regular" Republicans number
eleven, and Of those seven have given
positive assurances that they will not
vote for the gasman under any possible
combination Of circumstances. Even
II Addicks should secure the support of
the four "Regular" Republicans who
may ultimately vote for him, If they
find 1t impossible to secure the election
Of any othe. Republican without doing
so the gasman would still be four votes
short OF the goal Of his ambition, and
the only source Of these votes is 10 the
ranks Of the Democrats. 1t is regarded
as certain, however, that there are not
that many Democratic votes to be had
on any terms that the gasman is pre-
pared to offer.
II is regarded as certain that not a
single Democratic vote In tbs Legis-
lature will be given to Addicks. In
the first place, the Democratic members
would not think OF such thing as
voting for Addioks. And in the second
place, they would not dare to.

Senator Hawley, in his plea for an
increase Of our standing army to loo, 600
men, sees visions OF foreign war. He
says that Europe is jealous Of our
expansion, and may take extreme
measures to reprsss it, How would it
do to put an end to our policy Of ex-
pansion, give the Philippines self
government, and thus obviate the
danger Of war and the necessity for
large standing army? That this would
be cheaper and far better in the end
cannot be disputed.
