TOPICS OF THE TINES.


The southern states planted 2785a2. 900
acres of cotton this year, an increase
or 2,lll .000 acres.
1t is believed that the Cuban conven-
tion delegates deliberately went u work
to 50 distort the Platt amendment
terms that the islands could crawl ont
of the holes made; but they are indeed
simple minded when they think they
can play such Spanish tactics on Uncle
Sam.
In Hawaii enormous quantities of
ducks are raised by the Chinese upon
the edges OF the ocean. Twice n day,
within restricted areas. they are permit
ted to eat the young Ash which SWIM in
the enclosed coves. Fish are reported
to be growing scarcer every year, and
by some this diminution is attributed TO
the wholesale destruction Of the young
fry by the Chinese.
Altho Justice Brewer of the supreme
court was on the anti-expansion side in
the recent insular decision, he has taken
out license 10 wcd--to enlarge his
family. Does the constitution follow the
flag in this case? And is the territory
to be annexed conquered province?
There is renewed talk Of an extra ses-
sion Of congress to legislate for the
Philippines. Since the supreme court
withheld its decision in the case invo!v-
ing the status Of these islands, II is be-
lieved the court regarded the conditions
different from those Of Porto Rico and
took more time to consider various
phases. Under military control the
power of the president would be ample,
but in passing TO a civil status it might
be different. Several good lawyers of
the administration hold that the spoon
Ter resolution. delegating power to the
president, and which was a good enough
thing upon which to base a temporary
government. would hardly pass muster
in the courts. because there is grave
doubt as to the power Of congress to
delegate its powers over the territories.
1t is hoped that an extra session may
be averted.

1T has seemed to us" says the Chris
