From the Brooklyn Eagle.
Those good people who have been
charging President Mckinley with the
desire to be despot in the Philip
pines because he has recommended
that congress pass such laws as will
permit the establishment of a greater
degree of civil government in the is
lands under the control of the presi-
dent until such time as a permanent
system of government is provided, are
doubtless not aware that their remarks
would apply with equal force to Thorn
as Jefferson. The Spooner bill, which
would give to the president the neces-
sary authority in the premises, has
been before the senate for nearly a
year.Its passage at this time would sim
plify matters very much. 1t is what the
president and his advisers are sup
posed to think ought to be passed
and it is what Thomas Jefferson and
his cabinet favored in 1903. Indeed.
except as changed conditions require
slight notifications. it is reproduc-
ton of the bill which was passed for
the control of Louisiana previous to
the setting up of territorial govern
ments in the new national domain.
Here are the two measures, side by

A Topeka man who formerly resided
in western Kansas has a fund of good
stories indigenous to the short grass
country. One of the best of them is
about Patrick Fleming. a well known
attorney of Rawlins county, who rep
resented the defendant in a divorce
suit at ST. Francis not long ago. It is
characteristic as being an example of
eloquent circumlocution. In addressing
the court Fleming said:
