One recommendation in the report OF
Gov. Taft, ofthe Philippines, throws ray
of brilliant light upon the true inwardness
of the American invasion in the Philippines.
Gov. Taft recommends that Congress amend
the American empire act SO as to allow the
sale of public lands and to give more lati-
tude in the matter of granting franchises.
He explains that the law now rests it
works great hardships upon thousands of
ambitious Americans who have gone to the
Philippines to invest.-The Public.
Benevolent assimilation and land
grabbing 60 hand in hand. Con-
gress should take the hint and fix
matters 50 the American who goes
to the Philippines should be given
= chance to make money. While
the American displays his 'sdisin
terested zeal" in teaching the FIJI
pino how to enjoy the blessings OF
free government he can at the same
time accumulate considerable real
estate.

When my little son is born on sunny sum-

For the winday wathers blue would be

BENEVOLENT ASSOCIATIONS.
MAS GEN. HANCOCK RIGHT ?

MAS GEN. HANCOCK RIGHT
Congressman Robertson says in
a recent interview that he is "at 9
loss to know how protectionis'
can bring his mind to believe tina,
reciprocity is not autagonistic to his
policy of protection, to which The
Gazette would add that it is equally
Eat loss to know how a free trader
can bring his mind to believe tina,
protection is not antagonistic to his
policy of free trade"
After all it does seem that Gen.
Hancock was not altogether wrong
when he said that the tariff was a
local issue. In former days states
manship, especially in the South,
consisted in legislatine tor the
masses, irrespective of sections.
To-day the popular conception of a
statesman IS the representative who
looks after the interests of his dis
trict. A congressman is not ex-
pected to adhere to fundamental
doctrines, but rather to strive for
the material gain of his constitu-
ency. Eastern senators and con-
gressmen have long ago exerted
their influence in the halls of legis-
lation toward the passage of laws
which fostered the industries of
their section, regardless of the cor
responding injury which they in
flicted upon the industries of the
other portions of the country. Upon
the pretext of protecting their ';n
FAINT industries" they have collected
millions from the large army Of
consumers and through this system
of extortion they have grown rich
and powerful. But they are cIamor-
ing for more "protectlon" anG will
very likely get what they want. 1t
is form of paternalism which is
growing very rapidly throughout the
country. 1t is now making itself
felt even in the South where the desire
to secure governmental aid is be-
coming more marked every year.
1t is the result of the policy which
has been practiced by the privi-
legged classes to extort tribute from
the masses. OF course the tariff is
not local issue; it is question of
taxation which concerns the people
of the whole country. But the
statesmen of the present day are in
clined to accept the views Of Gen.
Hancock even though they are
known to have proven SO disas-
trous to the presidential aspirations
of the old soldier. 1t will be re-
membered that under the Cleveland
Democratic senators
held up the Wilson bill in the upper
house on account Of certain inter-
ests, and it is notable fact that
Mr.. German, who inspired the OPP
position to the Wilson bill, is about
to be reelected as Democratic
senat from the State Of Maryland. |
One half of the Louisiana delega-
ton IN Congress voted for the |
bill because that measure
afforded a certain amount of protec-
ton to sugar, rice and lumber and |
their action has been fully endorsed |
by Democratic constituencies.
This tariff business begins to look |
like grab game. and the willingness
throughout the country
10 get near the Federal pie counter
bears out the soundness Of David !
Harum's philosophy t'that there is
rs much human nature in some
people as in others"

TIE SANE Old BREED

THE SANE Old BREED
The blatant radicals at the North
who. during the dark days of re.
construction, rejoiced when the
South was being robbed by the
emissaries of the black and tan
propaganda, are most unhappy now
because this section is enjoying y
period of unexampled prosperity.
Then they looked upon the South
as the rightful prey of the carpet
baggers<and with the aid of Federal
bayone,s caused it to be exploited by
as rapacious a gang of thieves as
ever robbed on land or sea. ANY
scheme to despoil the South was
considered a legitimate enterprise
and to Cypress the Southern people
was their most exalted notion of
craftsmanship. He whose brain
could evolve the most perfect en-.
CINE of oppression was held up as
their ideal champion Of human
rights. Envy and hatred had such
complete possession of their souls
that they were happy only when the
CALLING yoke of Federal brutality
did its most infamous work.
1t was hoped by the patriotic
citizens of both sections that with
the reunion Of the North aud South
upon firm and lasting basis the
foul breath of the sectional malIg-
ner would cease to poison the pure
air Of heaven and that the jackals
of reconstruction would find an
h ospitable grave underneath the
debris OF fratricidal conflic. But
the breed still fingers with us. 1t
has recently cropped out in Crum-
packer of Indiana and Moody Of
Massachusetts. These disciples of
the "bloody shirt" can not bear the
sight of prosperous South; Of an
industrial, progressive South; of a
South conscious of it's own strength
which no longer fears the heels of
the oppressor; of South which
honors its dead, deals manfully with
the living present and looks for
word to glorious future; of
South thoroughly loyal and restored
to its former greatness, and, finally,
of South governed by its intelli-
gence and decency, struggling with
Spartan courage to solve problem
by no other people in
the history Of the world.
Crumpacker and Moody want
Congress to investigate the methods
which the South has
brought order out of chaos. They
want to know how it is possible for
he South to have decent white gov
eminent when radicalism as de-
creed that it should not be so.
They would chastise the South be-
cause it is prosperous. To speak
70 them Of the prosperity of this
section is like unfu1ling red flag
before the eyes of an enraged bull
They would punish the South by
its representation in Con-
,ress and if they can persuade a
PARTISAN Congress to their way of
linking, Louisiana and other
Southern States will be denied full |
IN Congress. 1t is
afe 20 say that threat will not have
he desired effect. Southern men
ave already been deprived of their
eats in the Senate and House of
and have seen
heir places occupied by adven
urers. Though impoverished and
by every agency contrived
" its enemies the South stood 1t
hen and he who doubts its ability
o stand it now With out yielding an
ota does not know the mettle Of
he Southern people.
