The New York World sees great dan
ger in the plan to confer on President
Mckinley military and judicial powers
to govern the Philippines. The World
declares that on top of these extraor-
dinary usurpations and grants of power
comes the proposition to make Mr.. Nc
Kinney by law, rs for two years he has
been in fact, the absolute military, civil
and judicial ruler Of the Philippines.
Under this broad grant of power the
president could-unless restrained by
the forthcoming decisions of the su-
preme court-legislate, or rather pro-
claim laws for ten millions Of people.
He could tax them at will and through
his judges decide their status and de-
cree the limitations of their rights and
liberties. He could bestow upon whom
soever he pleased franchises and priv
ileges as to mines, forests and railroads
worth millions Of dollars. He could en-
force his DEGREES with his army.
Neither William of Germany nor Ed
w2rd of England and India possess even
shadow of the truly imperial power
that has been vested in or is now pro-
posed for William, of Canton.

Chicago is threatened with another
calamity. Mrs. Carre Nation, who has
taken the responsibility upon her own
shoulders to destroy every saloon in
Kansas, now declares Chicago will be

cagoians they will certainly have cause
for sorrow.

Mr.. Justice Harlan has created some
comment by making references, in a
speech, to the constitution and the
flag. His words were listened to
closely, in the hope that he would say
something that might be construed in
to an indication as to the coming de-
cision of the court on the status of
Porto Rico and the Philippines. Every
effort has been made to bias the judg
ment of the court, and 1t is difficult to
tell, even with the extracts of Mr..
Justice Harlans speech at hand, what
the decision will be. He said distinct.
ly in one passage of his speech, as re-
ported from Washington:
THE fathers never intended that
this government should ever exert any
power or authority over any part of
the earth's surface freed from the let
ter and the spirit of constitution"
That sounds all right, but there has
been SO much talk one way and action
another. during the present administra-
tion, that this may prove to be a case
in point. At another place in his
speech these words were used:
Our government was founded upon
the rights of man; founded upon the
theory that man had rights as a man.
II we enter into this world-power bus.
mess upon any other theory, we enter
it for evil. and not for good"
This is more encouraging The
American people may yet be set right
before the world and their own con.
sciences.
