Soldier Life in the Philippines

Armed resistance to our national
policy is practically knocked In the
head, though support is still given to
the bands. Of guerrillas with whom we
have to contend. The numbers OF the
latter are gradually being reduced by
capture, death and voluntary surren-
der, but the forces we are up against"
now are the more determined Of. those
who opposed us early in the insurrec-
ton, and, as is natural, are the more
daring and better fighters. If you
could see the boys in a scrap over here
you would feel proud to own that YOU
were an American. Be what national
1ty they may, no other soldiers can
touch ours when it comes to endur-
ance and fighting.
remember one time when the old
Twenty-seventh Separate Company
was having a skirmish drill on the
fair grounds, heard an officer observe
that If an enemy was in front shoot
ing at US, we would not run SO fast"
| thought so myself then, but know
better now. When that electric COM
mand "Charge." is heard, the whole
line jumps from concealment as one
man, and that good old yell gains In
volume and intensity as onward the
line dashes, until, as is invariably the
end, the niggers break and run, and
as vfctors the painting boys, dry
tongued and perspiring, throw them
selves on the ground to rest. Such a
scene as is presented when the boys
stop to rest will remain In ones mind
forever. Every fellow tries to tell in
one breath how he reached the present
point, how he fell over a tree or ran
into mudhole and how Bill So-and-
So" stopped to pull him out Or nailed
this or that "gu-gu."
When in post or barracks life is
somewhat monotonous, aside from the
entertainments provided in the way of
dances. etc., by the rich mestigo fami-
lies. You would be amused to see how
we rugged up to go to dance. Every
man always took rifle and round
about" of ammunition. But the natives
don't seem to mind a little thing like
.nat. some OF the mestigos are very
beautiful-the ladies, 1 mean: the men.

A FUTILE ERRAND.

Representative Beckley, even though
putting his own Interpretation on the
words of the President, brought cold
comfort to the ''Dole-must-go" squad
Even Brother Emmeluth did not cheer
up visibly when the report was made
Mr.. Mckinley had advised Beckley TO
return at once to the islands, had talk
ed vaguely of futurel adjustments,
and had given the Home Rulers some
common sense advice about economy,
the Appropriation bill and the unwis-
dom of trying to hamper the Govern
ment. The attitude of the President
was that Of a patient father ttying to
put some sense into the head of an OBJ
streperous child.
| Meanwhile, the Advertiser learns on
authority which cannot be questioned
i that Governor Dole will not be disturb
ed in the enjoyment of his Office. Ii
was the veriest humbug and child S
play to assume that anything the pol1ti-
cal enemies of the Republican party
could say against Mr.. Dole would have
the slightest effect on the Federal Elk
ecutive unless accompanied by charges
and specifications which would convict
him of some misdemeanor 1t was to
get rid of the incubus of partisan hos
tility that the white plotters who work
with the Home Rule party tried to In
duce that party to join the Republicans.
Its failure to do SO made it's attack on
Mr.. Dole ridiculous, although If the
Home Rulers had fallen in with the
scheme they could not have shaken
President McKinley's faith, lately reit-
Grated, in the honor and ability of the
Governor of this Territory.
For a scheme which has shrunk to
such little measure, the Home Rulers
have to thank their credulity more.
even, than their ignorance. They
swallowed everything the white mar
plots told them, as a gudgeon swallows
bait. Into the vast pool of their un-
questioning faith anti-Dole men threw
all sorts of rubbish, and the pool en-
quilted it. 1t Is perhaps, too early to
expect the pool to show frozen sur
face. but the time will eventually come
when Home Rule receptivity, so far.
at least, as the assurances of carpet
baggers is concerned, will necessarily
CONCEAL.

National Debts of the World.

! WASHINGTON, April 2s.-The recen,
announcement of a new British loan OF
$500, 000,0 900 lends interest to the state
ment just issued by the Treasury Bu-
reau of Statistics regarding the national
debts of the world. This statement
shows, in brief, that the national debts
of the world aggregated more than
$4,000, 000, 900 at the close of the nine
teenth century, or ten times as much
as In the closing year Of the eighteenth
century. In 1898, at the beginning OF
the Napoleonic wars, the national debts
OF the world amounted to approximate
ly $1,000, 900, 600; in 1900 they were, &C
cording to the best information obtain
able, $31,000,000.0 600. In general terms 1t
may be said that the worlds national
Indebtedness In 1900 aggregated ten
times what it did at the beginning of
the nineteenth century. Meantime pop
ulation has increased $50 per cent, and
gold and silver, which form the basis
OF the money with which debt payments
are made, 300 per cent which with the
utilization Of the various forms of cred
1T as currency, may have increased the
worlds circulating medium quite in
proportion to the increase in national
debts.
This enormous increase in national
Indebtedness is chiefly the result OF
wars, standing armies and works of
public utility. To this may be added a
tendency in many cases to create an
annual deficit by expenditures exceed
ing revenues made In Difference to pop
ular demand, which deficits ultimately
take the form of funded Of bonded in
debtedness. But the bulk of these
enormous debts is from war and war
preparations and the construction OF
public works. such as railways, canals.
harbors and the Improvement Of water
ways. pOf the railways Of the world.
whose total cost has been estimated at
$780, 600, DOC, 000,% about one-third are own
ed by national, governments. indicating
that approximately one-third Of the In,
crease in, Indebtedness has been applied
to works of this character But the
fact that great wars have compelled
the nations engaged In them to- maise
enormous additions to the funded an
debtedness. clearly Identifies this as the
principal factor in the great increase
in national Indebtedness which has
the history Of national
finances in the nineteenth century.

DOESN'T AFFECT HAWAII.

| fhe impression Is out that the SUI
preme Court in declaring, as it is sup
posed to have done, that the constitu-
ton does not follow the, flag, has put
Hawaii into the category of mere pos
sessions; and that, as result our
sugar may have to pay duty on the
mainland.
This radical idea is based upon the
following clauses of the decision:
The clause, "all duties, imposts and
excuses shall be uniform throughout the
United States" the court holds. was
placed in the Constitution as result of
the jealousfes Of the States which united
in forming the Nation. 1t was intended
to prevent any State or combination of
States securing advantage over another
or others; to prevent the ports of one
state gaining preference over those of
another in the Importation of goods.
This rule of uniformity was made pri-
marily for the States united, the court
holds, not for Territories then possessed
or afterward acquired, and the Consti-
tutional requirement Is satisfied as long
as all duties on imports are uniformly
imposed at all the ports throughout the
United States. The advantage of this
uniformity may be extended to Terri
$4,000 oii4 pOoSSSSlOuS not states and
not members of the American Union.
but that Is for Congress to determine
under the authority of the Constitution.
1t appears that Congress has already
determined the case of Hawaii. as fol-
lows:
Section Organic Act) That the Con-
sutution and except as herein otherwise
provided, all the laws of the Knitted
States which are not locally inapplicable.
shall have the same force and effect
within the said Territory as elsewhere in
the United States.
AS the matters herein otherwise
and the laws which are 40
cally inappHcable," do not affect the
rights of Hawaii as Territory of the
United States. these islands may be re-
garded as an indissoluble part of the
Union.

same az when the case was first decided.
Concerning their opinion last fled 1t IL
charged that they completely misappre-
hended the argument made on behalf OF
the trustees of the will. and after quot
ing the argument and opinion in paral-
lei columns to illustrate this misappre-
hension the brief goes on to say:
There is nothing whatever in the ar
gument to justify the statement of the
opinion. AS appears from the above the
argument states the direct contrary to
what the learned Justices supposed it to
have stated. The opinion, therefore, was
based on a complete misrepresentation OF
the argument made, and imputes to us
such a silly contention as will expose us
to the ridicule of the entire profession. "
The brief INDUCES in biting sarcasm in
relation to the innocent remarks OF the
majority opinion concerning trusts In
general and the Fair trust in particular.
The following language from the opinion
is quoted:
I'VE are more than satisfied with this
result when 1t is considered that con-
trary conclusion would perpetuate a trust
of this vast estate probably for period
of fifty years and more, and also result
in a disinheritance of Fairs children
These remarks were obviously thrown
in by way of giving good measure and
as a sort of guarantee of good faith
strictly for publication, but the brief
falls foul of them and tramples On the
PROSTATE court in this fashion:
..why should the Court express any
satisfac tion over such a result? The Pc
Rod of fifty years or more is that OF the
lives in being, which the laws OF Call
fornia expressly provide for. Has
the Court any different policy from that
of the law? Does 1t mean that 1t dis
approves of the expressed policy OF the
law and Is not kindly disposed towards
1T. and experiences satisfaction because
it has defeated it?'
Concerning the judicial woe over the
possible 'disinheritance" of the tesla
tors children there Is this bit OF sar-
donic humor:
IF it should be said that the cutting
off of the children Of the testators son
ia .disinheriting' them, it may be answer
ed that 1t does not appear that the testa-
tors son has any children. And 1t must
he very tender heart that is moyed by
the misfortune of beings. that may never
be born"
FINALLY the brief remarks that the ma
iority of the court is more to be pitied
than blamed. They were born that way
and cannot help 1t, but so long as the
light holds out-thus:
"Of course g. man cannot help his un-
deriving feelings as to- matters of this
kind. but such feelings should at least
be such as the law approves and We sub
nit that we have shown that such Is not
the case as to the matters above men
toned
The court Is at present engaged in
,hewing on this warm potato. The brief
has been under advisement for week.
This scathing brief was hleo win tug

re not advised that the court 1eit

The attacks on the Food Inspector,
made yesterday in the Legislature,
were probably egged on by men who
want to sell adulterated wares. The
Inspector has done great work for pure
food, and as there is still great work
to be done, strong desire exists In
certain quarters to head him off. In
some lines of edible goods Hawaii Is
n dumping place for things that are
unsalable elsewhere, and 1t is the bust
ness OF the inspector to warn the pub

Beckley's statement that the Presl-
dent asked him to visit Washington be-
fore the next Congressional session, is
an eager bid for another junketing
trip. In all probability the President,
having Delegate Wilcox and Mr.. Hay
wood to consult about Hawaiian mat
tiers, said nothing of the kind. But as
.Beckley has tasted the delights OF
travel at somebody else's expense, he is
quite of the mind to keep on doing so.
We wonder If anybody will be simple
minded enough to put up for him?
