ident Roosevelt and by congress at the
ensuing session. Whether 1t will be
deemed best to put this policy into exc
cution by means of some general legisia-
ton. equivalent TO reciprocal arrange
ment with all the nations of the earth or
hy a series of separate treaties, it is as
yet too early to say.
He said that he considered reciprocity
with Cuba rs first and most important,
for nolitical as we'll as economical rea-
sons. He then briefly discussed the
reciprocity treaties now pending in the
senate and concluded this portion of his
remarks by saying
Last we come to the treaty with

ironically, than all the ether treaties

treaty made with France. 1t is coun-
try with which fain would strengthen
cur good relations. | regard such a
treaty as politically and economically
desirable in high degree.
In conclusion he advocated legislation
which would put the American mer-
chant marine on an equality with that
CT other countries, and the building of
navy. He said:

the building of an isthmian canal. be-

o-abiy for both nations, whatever obsta-
c,es now exist to the building of the ca
nal in the Clayton Bulwer treaty. 1T
such a treaty is submitted to US by the
president there is no more pressing duty
than its immediate ratification, to be
followed at once by the passage of the
canal bill.
There is one ether condition that is
essential to the commerce and industrial
development of the United States, which
in the last FIVE years has entered into
new epoch. and that is the maintenance
of peace. There is no nation in the world
to which peace is so important as it is
to the United States in order to secure
ample scope for the great progress we
are making. We are in good relations
row with all the world. and 1t will be, j
am sure, the effort of President Roose-
Welt, as it was of President Mckinley,
to maintain these good relations.
There is only one point of danger,
and to assure peace we must protect
ourselves IN that direction. Firmly but
quietly the Monroe doctrine must be rig

! 1901 and 1900.
! 1t is generally understood that the
| plan of Mr.. Payne and his colleagues
| Will be to cut the tax on beer from S1.6U
4 per barrel to fiat dollar rate. This will
| cause an estimated reduction of $40,-
| 600, 600 in the revenue receipts, the eSti-
mate being made upon the production of
beer in 1901 and 1906 there being very
/ little difference between the two years.
The estimate is considered a conserva-
! tive one by the members of congress
| who have investigated the matter. The
statistics in possession of the internal
revenue bureau of the treasury show
that there has been an increase so far
in the present calendar year in the pro-
duction of beer.
1t is understood further that the plans
of the house leaders contemplate re-
duction of the tax upon tobacco from
9 clio cents, the present rate, to cents.
This will mean. If carried out, a reduc-8

which is the amount given as a mini
mum Of what is desired by members of
the ways and means committee of the
house.
Secretary Gage refused to confirm for
publication statementszwh which have been
made that he agrees to the internal rev.
enue tax reductions proposed. He adj
mits, however, the ACCESSIBILITY and de-
STABILITY of abolishing the special tax
es. The department has had many
complaints from those interested, and
there has been much trouble and con-
siderable expense in the collection OF
these special taxes, while the returns to
the government have been but trifiing
compared with the annoyance expert
enced in their collection. The secretary
will probably persist in his attitude
against a big reduction in the beer tax.
He maintains that the tax is easy of
collection and has not proved onerous.
Naturally, if the secretary errs, he
wishes to err on the side of conserva-
tism instead of placing himself in a po-
sition to be criticised for having adj
vised or assented to a program of tax
reduction which might result in def
cheney.

idly upheld. The entrance of any great
European power into the American
hemisphere. either by the acquisition of
territory or the establishment of forts
or naval stations, would be the instant
menace of the peace we are so anxious
to maintain.
THE best insurance and the best
guarantee of it are the possession of a
navy so strong that no nation of the
world would be tempted to attack us.
Complete preparation is the surest pro-
lection against war, and war is what
we wish to avoid, not only morally but
economically, in every honorable way"

REFUSES TO SURRENDER. Z
Insursent Leader Tukbon Demands

Manila. Nov. u.-According to aivices
from Catabalogan, capital of the island
of Sanlar, Lukban, the insurgent leader,
has sent a message to General Smith
declaring that he will not listen to me-
gotiaticns for surrender until all the
Grandma valley.
General Smith has ordered every
American soldier in the island of Samar
and the island of Leyte never to be
without arms. even at meal time. He
is determined that there shall be no
more surprises, and commanding Off

Smith also directs that scouting must
continue necessarily and that all rice
and hemp captured must be destroyed.
He considers the capture of Lukban on
~ a question of a very short time.
The federal convention continues its
meetings. but these are as Il rule of
turbulent character and very little is
accomplished. Personal chickering's pre-
vent harmony. Buencamino challenged
Velasco to duel, but the latter refused

challenger.
Many provincial delegates have al
ready left in disgust. ISABELLA Reyes
wanted to enter upon the minutes of
the convention an expression of the re-
greet felt by the delegates at the lack of
interest displayed in the work of poiit-
ical organization. Thrice Buencanlino
left the room saying he would never re-
turn. In eachinstance he yielded to the
persuasion of his friends that he should
go back and finally he formally ten
dered his resignation, but only to put in
an appearance again at the evening ses-
sion.
The question Of the friars has been
occupying much of the time of the con-
vention. Intense antipathy is shown
toward them. and the sense of the con-
vention was practically unanimous that
they must GO.

TO TEST WATER TOWER.
Delaware Fire Company will Try Its
New Apparatus tomorrow.

Ats O'Clock tomorrow afternoon the
Delaware Fire Company will test its new
water tower at West street and the Park
drive.
The tower has been attached to the
company's extension ladder, which will
be raised. and water will be forced
through the tower by the engines of the
Reliance and Fame companie. The full
force Of both engines will be thrown into
the tower at the same time, which, it is
believed, will result in good, practical
test.
Should the trial prove satisfactory, and
there is every reason to believe that il
will, the Delaware company will place
the tower in service ct once and will
have it ready for use at all fires where it
is necessary.
The fire department is very much in.
terested in the result Of the test as it will
not only add to the magnificent equip.
ment Of the Wilmington department,
but will place this city on the list OF
cities that have been first to see the bene.
fit to be derived from the tower, and as
in many other cases, been quick to &C.
cept Improvements.

CoIored Men fin a Quarrel.

Much excitement was created in the
kitchen of the Clayton House about $50
o'clock last evening by fight between
two colorcd waitors, John Cant and
Daniel Fisher.
The weapons used by the men were
not razorS and knives but common. every
day tcacups and plates. They proved to
be just as deadly however.
The men got quarreling over the ques-
ton as to which of them should carry out
some Stops. Soon the fight was on and
teacups and plates were flying in the
air.
Fisher was suddenly struck on the left
side Of his head near the temple with
a tcacup. An artery was severed and
the blood commenced flowing from the
wound at a rapid rate. 1t was feared
he might bleed to death.
A waiter hurried to the police station
and Special Officer England FASTENED
with him to the Clayton House. On
his way there he met Officer McGillon,
who joined the party.
DIR. Frank Roop Smith was sent for
and soon stopped the flow of blood.
Both ends of the artery were tied up.
Fisher, together with Cant. were taken
to the police station and locked up.

From the Sun.

From the Sun.
In the essentials of patriotism there
ought to be no difference between genu-
inc Rcpublicanism and genuine Democ-
racy, This is basic suppositon in the
American political fabric. In the cleo
ton for President of the United States
and for Congress, the people decided
that the present administration-execu
tive and cgislative-should be Republic
can. What right has any body to i'm
pair the efficiency of that administration?
or what right has any one to defeat any
effort to apply Republican political prn-
ciple in the work Of the administration?
Would that not be denying the right of
the people to govern themselves? In the
election of this State the people voted
for Republican administration-fo the
election of two Republican United States
Senators. What right has any citizen,
or any public officer or servant, to op-
pose or prevent that election? The peo-
pie of Delaware have voted four times
for the election of Mr.. Addicks to the
Senate, and by a popular election he
would be sent to the United States
Senate by an overwhelming majority.
What right has any one Republican or
Democrat to oppose or prevent his cleo
ton in obedience to the vote of the peo-
pie? The patriot obays the will of the
people, the partisan and traitor defeats
the will Of the people.
