We once knew a man who owed
debt to newspaper and when he
was asked to pay it he became SO
angry that he wasn't no beauty to
look upon and ordered the paper
stopped, and when it was suggest
ed that he could not lawfully stop
the paper till he had paid up his
back subscription, he grew loud
and furious in his defamation
about personal liberty in this coun-
try. His idea of personal liberty
is that sort of liberty which allows
him to enjoy the fruits of his neigh
boris toll without paying for them.
1t may be well for this man to
stop his paper before he dies for
we'd have to discontinue it then
anyway. We issue no asbestos
edition for such departed subscrib-
ers.

HUNDREDS HOMELESS.
Ravages Of the FIool II The stricker
City Of Paterson.
PROPERTY DAMAGE SEVERAL BILLION.

Loss of Life and Property and

at Many Points.

Paterson. =. J., March 3=The
great flood that has inundated a large
part OF the mill section of Paterson
subsidized somewhat and it is believed
the worst is over. The damage was
very great It is estimated the loss
wrought by the Hood is as large as
that by fire. while It is said there 10
little or no insurance to cover it.
Many more families have been rem
dered homeless by the flood than were
made so by the fire and the relief COM
mittee whose labors were becoming
lighter daily, is now hard at work
seeking to assist those who have lost
everything by the high water. Along
the water front on both sides of the
river, almost everything is wrecked,
foundations and roadbeds having been
eaten away and about everything
in sight is more or less damaged.
In the flooded district of Paterson
are dozens of silk mills that must re-
main Idle for the present and some
OF them for considerable time to
come. The suffering must necessarily
be great among the hundreds of per-
sons employed in these establish
ments. many of whom have large fam
lilies depending upon them for sup
port. If the buildings are found to be
undermined or the plants badly dam
aged much time must eTapse before
work can be resumed.
The entire filtration plant of the
water company. the construction of
which was almost complete, is wiped
out. The contract price for the work
was 100000, all of which is lost to
the company. In addition to this
much of the intake of the company is
destroyed and probabilities are that
in all the loss to the company will
amount TO million and half dollars.
A bridge at Dundee island, near Pas

Light About The Philippines.

Light About The Philippines
Pittsburg Post.
The Democrats of the Senate
propose as preliminary to law
establishing the future relations of
the Philippines to the United
States that a commission shall be
sent there to investigate and report,
composed of senators of both po-
litical parties-some favoring i'm
perialism and colonialism, and 9TH
ers advocating a system of training
for self-government and eventually
independence under the protection
of the United States.
1t is fact that the main part of
the information given to the public
and to Congress on the condition
of the Filipino people and their
desires and capacity as to future
government has been the official
view, determined at Washington
and enforced by the civil and mill
tary agents of the government on
duty in the islands. 1t has been
neither impartial nor candid, but
made up of conclusions framed to
advance given purpose.
There can be no harm and much
advantage in getting at the facts
from an Independent standpoint.
They might modify the judgment
of both sides to the CONTROVERSY,
viewing the situation from a dis
lance.
Governor Taft's evidence before
the Senate committee has had but
little effect; not because he was
net honest and did not aim to tell
the truth as he saw it, but because
his statements were evidently
tinged, if not controlled, by de-
sire to advance the policy of the
administration and of the majority
in Congress. He did not hesitate
to defend the barbarous code of
treason laws promulgated by the
Philippine commission and sane.
toned by the administration. He
supported extravagant salaries to
all officials, compared with the
American standard, because the
cost of living was SO high, notwith-
standing Filipino labor is one of
the cheapest of Asiatic products.
He has also testified that, though
the Filipinos are naturally intell-
igent and by no means cowardly
race. they are too ignorant and too
wanting in morality for, self-gov-
eminent now or any time in the
near future. We have had plenty
of other opinions on this important
point from competent aud un- off,
cial authority. but they have been
secuted as unworthy of belief.
Considering that the American
people have a profound interest in
learning the actual condition of the
Philippine country and people
that it involves questions of pre-
eminent Importance as to their own
government-this demand for
more light" with admitted igno.
rance prevailing, accords with good
sense and good government. Our
people have right to know many
things of which they either know
nothing or have been deceived by
false information. There is a
pressing need of legislation. Let
it be based on facts impartially as
certained and accurately set forth.

Trains Stalled.

Albany, N. Y, March s.-Passengers
on the famous Empire State express
were taken from the palatial cars in
row boats at dead of night to save
them from drowning in their berths.
They were all rescued, but the train
stands half submerged on the rails
where the torrents forced the crew to
leave it. The express was stalled by
the ice and flood at Castleton. AT that
point half a dozen trains are now
stalled. The passengers were taken
on in rowboats and were cared for at
nearby hotels or transferred in boats
TO relief trains waiting on the south
ern side of the break.
