the Spanish Parliament there have
been some very bitter words spoken
against the French friars who, by the
new laws against associations in

The G1LLrrr Congress has been con-
BILL. sidering with the pros
pect of passing bill which will pro-
hibit the sale of whiskey and firearms
to the people of the New Hebrides
and other Pacific islands. Liquor is
the curse of our civilization and 1t
works even more evil among the SIM
pie heather tribes. 1t is no great ad-
vertisement Of Christian civilization
to send a cargo of rum along in the
ship that carries missionaries and
Bibles to the heather. DR. Patson, the
veteran missionary, while he was in
this country made many pathetic ap-
peals for the passage Of such a bill.

TO TRY A VOTING MACHINE.

TO TRY A VOTING MACHINE.
At the monthly meeting of the
Borough board, last Tuesday evening,
Mr. McTamany, the inventor of the
voting machine called by his name was
present and explained the merits of the
machine and offered to furnish one
without expense for the coming
borough election in March, that the
officials and those also of the town
might see it work. It does away with
tickets, envelops, boothtenders, ped
dlingitickets, fraudin voting and count
ing and seems very desirable adjunct
to elections. Mr. McTamany said it
was used in the recent election in
Stamford and that 300 men voted in
half an hour. The Borough board at
terward voted to have one for the com.
ing election. Also one will be on ex
hibition previously for inspection and
trial.

sidered out of danger.

tion takes place on Monday, March 4,

The claim is now made that rats do

HUNTINGTON's SCHOOLS.

SOAA>'OS'
The amount of annual school money
received from the state is S2981.25, be-
ing quite an increase over the past
year. The expenses of the schools are
over $4,000, there being 10 district
schools outside the Ferry district. One
district in town has no school because
there are only a few scholars. The in
crease in the Ferry district or Shelton
is about enough for an additional
room each year.

by what devious paths we may
have been led, we are in the Phil
ippines to remain--ior long time
at least. The logic OF events is
stronger than any political party.
But if we are to exploit the Philip

pose upon the islands a costly and
imposing civil service, together
with a large standing army, the
price TO be wrung from an un-
happy people, there is no one who
might not pray that we come home

A sHAMELEss scHRME-

Advocates Of the ship subsidy bill
with the greed characteristic OF men in
pursuit Of loot and booty, are endeav.
oring % side track everything else in
congress with a view Of rushing their
scheme through. 1t tries the patience
excessively when an open, barefaced
graft and grab like this Is attempted.
Here Is a bin manifestly drafted I'm

1t Will take from $3.50 100000 to 5000. %
100000 directly out Of the pockets OF
the masses Of the people and bestow
the sum upon a few persons already
swollen with wealth. Senator Hanna
Is welding the power Of the admins

through. "@s
Examples Ike this have a deplorable

THE SUBSIDY BILL.
STRONG REPUBLICAN, OPPOSITION
DEVELOPED.

Senator Hanna Not FOlIoved--rhe he
Subsidy Bill Too Much of a steal
For Large Part of the Republican
Party-The Chicago Tribune's Cam
vnss of Republican Editors In Gem
tral Western States.
The Chicago Tribune has been MAX
ing a canvass Of the views Of the edi-
tors Of the leading newspapers of a
number Of the central western states.
In a recent editorial The Tribune sums
up the results as follows:
AGAINST THE SHIP SUBSIDY BILL.
OF the Republican editors in Illinois.
Iowa, Wisconsin and Indiana who have
been asked by The Tribune for their
views concerning the ship subsidy bill
majority are opposed to that meas
ure. Some disapprove Of It because
Its chief benehciaries will be corpora
uons that need no government aid.
Others do not believe it will benefit In
the least the producers Of the middle
west, though they viii have to pay a
part Of the proposed subsidies. There
are others who believe natural causes
viii build up the American merchant
marine in the course of time and that
a resort TO subsidies is unnecessary.
1t Is the good fortune of the editors
Of papers printed in smaller towns to
be tolerably well acquainted with their
subscribers and their opinions. When
one Of these editors says "the people"
are against a measure, he speaks advis-
edly so far as his constituency is con-
cerned. He is not making a random
guess. Therefore when a number of
country editors express themselves in
reference to the ship subsidy bill as do
those whose opinions have been printed
in The Tribune 1t means that behind
them are great many Republican viii
lage people and farmers who hold the
same opinions.
The public sentiment Of the Republic
an voters Of the middle west concern
ing this ship subsidy legislation is not
reflected accurately in the columns Of
newspapers which use the editorials
and the plate matter of the national
committee. This is a fact senator's and
representatives from that part Of the
country should bear in mind and es-
cape the modification and apprehen-
sion they will feel If they discover on
returning home that they have defed
public opinion in their states and dis
tricts.
Washington sentinel., 1901-03-09

Senator Frye is probably correct
when he says that the ship subsidy bill
represents the "best judgment OF the
most experienced shipping men OF this
country put into legal form by the best
counsel Obtainable," but he has, uncon-
sciOusly no doubt given the whole snap
away. The shipping men have had the

The following quotations from other
important Republican organs give some
idea Of the revolt Senator Hanna has
stirred up by his attempt to put the
ship subsidy bill through:
1t has been made manifest during the

portion OF all other parts Of the couu-
try Is unalterably opposed to the SUBJ
sidy plan. Among those who are not
actively opposed to it another very
large proportion Of the public is either
apathetic or not fully informed as to
the character and purpose Of the meas
ure. The active support Of the bill
comes from the interests TO be benefit
ed and from the handful Of senator's
who have taken IL upon themselves to
endow those interests with rich annu-
ity from out the public treasury.
The senatorial contest over the meas
ure is thus fairly a contest Of public
sentiment against private interests,
and the fact that the latter are sufi-
ciently powerful to fight their battle on
anything like equal terms is in itself
unpleasantly suggestive Of the extent
to which private interests have gained
influence in the senate.-Chicago Times

may be others, and it may be wise to
accept another before the next election.
Of that no one can judge now. But
Bryan is the one leader of whom any
thing is yet known. He is the only
democrat Of this generation OF democrats
who has proved both his ability as a
popular national leader and the depth
and genuineness of his democracy.
To Bryan, then, in the immediate
future. at any rate, will true democrats
turn for advice and support in maintain
ing the integrity Of the new democracy;
and to him will they look for the reason
able advance along democratic lines
which his recent defeat necessitates.
The democracy, like revolutions, can
neither stand still nor go backward. 1t
must press on, come victory or defeat,
toward the ultimate contest of our era
the contest which shall be to pluto
cracy and democracy what the fateful
battle of Tours was to Saracen and
Christian.
