WHO e HAuLING IT Down.


WHO rs HAULING IT DOWN:
who will haul it down." said Mr..
Mckinley on one of his numerous cleo
pioneering tours, referring to the flag
in the Philippines, in reply to patriotic
protests from American lovers of lib
erty and constitutional government,
and exhibiting his peculiar skill in
coming eatch-word phrases to tickle
the ears of the thoughtless and ignor-
ant. It mattered not to MI. Mckinley
that his utterance was the quintes-
sense Of contemplate demagosy, the
flag having been righteously lowered
in many instances, in Canada, Mexico,
Tripoli, Spanish Florida, Panama
elsewhere, where it was decided it had
no right to remain after the objects
which took ii. thither had been accom-
plished. Mr.. Mckinley could not re-
sist exercising his penchant for draw
ing the boisterous applause of the
"hurrah'' element of an ~unthinking
mob, even though he, himself, at that
time proposed to haul down the flag in
Cuba, where it was on precisely the
same terms as in the Philippines-al-
though now it seems to be his inten-
ton to reverse himself in this as he has
reversed himself in other matters of his
plain duty"
But who now proposes to haul down
the flag in China? Who proposes to
strike the Stars and Stripes and scut-
tie out of the country but John Hay,
Mr.. McKinley's Secretary of State, with
Mr.. McKinley's full sanction!
Yet the same doctrine which applies
in the Philippines applies to the Chi
nese situation with added force. Mr..
Mckinley doubtless realizes with re-
gard to China as all must in the case
of the Philippines, that we would much
better have remained out of it. But.
having gotten into the quarrel and as
sumed our share of it with the other
nations, we have infinitely less reason
to strike the colors and skedaddle
there than in the Philippines, where
we have no business at all and where
our warfare is. in violation of the Con-
stitution, the spirit of our W Declar-
alton of independence and our most
cherished principles of liberty and free
government.
Why should Mr.. Mckinley permit Mr..
Hay to thus skurry out of China with
tail between legs? Is it in keeping
with our attitude as a world power?"
Are not both Mr.. Mckinley and Mr..
Hay avowedly in the world power"
business?
We went into China on a righteous
errand to rescue American men, wo-
men and children from the barbarous
tortures of the BOXERS" we solemnly
assumed our share of the burden of
saving the lives and indicating the
rights of Christians and Of furnishing
the guilty and establishing a proper
regime in China. We had ten thou
sand times more obligations to remain
in China and more right to be there
than we nave to invade the land of the
liberty-loving Filipinos, our faithful
allies in our wal with Spain. Yet we
D to haul down the flag and
scuttle out of China, leaving other ma
lions to complete the task we under
took with them, while at the same time
we propose to send another feet of
ships loaded with troops to the Philip
pines!
o, Consistency, thou art a jewel not
of the imperial diadem of William NC
Kinley!

Excessive Taxation in Spain.

hdHsdS CIIy star.
The chief cause of the discomfort in
Spain, which is exciting revolts against
the government is excessive taxation.
The country is hopelessly in debt and
the cost of food has been raised by i'm
port duties to a limit which is affective
to the people. Taxation on the neces-
saries of life is bad enough when it is
rendered imperative as a source of rev-
niue. Where it is practiced without
the semblance of an excuse, as in the
United States, it is ever more odious
and irritating.

going in for economy and all that word
implies, and showed their earnestness
by appointing more State House ofic-

legislative session. They then declar-
ed, with their hands on their hearts,
that they would never, no, never, add
anything to the salaries originally
agreed upon. This was followed, We'd
nesday, by an increase of from one to
several dollars a day for the entire
session, to the whole outfit. 1t was a
typical Republican proceeding and well
illustrates the time-honored custom Of
the party to clean UP everything in the
way of public funds as it goes along.

papers which Is not only engaged in
the business OF selling news but is
expressly prohibited from doing SO by
its organic law. The Associated Press
Is not q business corporation in any
sense whatever. 1t has no capital stock
and its charter declares specifically
that it sis not to make a profit nor to
make or declare dividends, and is not
TO engage in the business of selling in
telligence nor traffic in the same" BY
the same charter its character is de-
fined by clear and unmistakable
words. The charter says, and the by
laws repeat the declaration, that the
Associated Press is IAN association
of certain persons who, owning or rep
resenting certain newspapers, unite in
a mutual and cooperative organization
for the collection and interchange,
with greater economy and efficiency,
OF information and intelligence for pub
lication in the newspapers owned or
represented by them" 1t is further
provided that additional members may
be elected, subject to the conditions,
regulations and limitations of the by
laws, and that no persons not so elect
ed shall enjoy any of the privileges
of the association.
Hence the Missouri Senate is bark
ing up the wrong tree If it is after the
Associated Press, for the proposed law
would have no bearing on that or
ganization.
1t would be interesting to know
what the able author of this measure
has against the Associated Press. If
he imagines he is proceeding against
a grasping monopoly, a~ntagonistic to
the public, he is as wrong as it
is possible for ven a Missouri legis-
lator to be. The Supreme Court of
that State has emphatically denied that
any public interest is involved in the
work of newsgathering. The courts
ruling was:
But there is nothing here on which
a monopoly can attach. The business
is one of mere personal service; an
occupation. Unless there is property
to be affected with public interest
there is no basis laid for the fact
or the charge of a monopoly"
