WE'VE "poNE ExpANpEpr

The following from a journal noted
for the sterling brand of its Democ-
racy, as well as for its extensive cir
culation, is not likely to prove COM
forting to the hearts of those who
are trying TO make a party question
out of the Philippine matter. The Phil
adelphia Record says:
There is food for Thought in the re-
suit of the Oregon election. It shows
the Democrats the folly at this late
day of opposing the accomplished ex-
pansion which followed the ratiiica-
tion of the Treaty of Paris. AS Judge
Culberson senteniously observed af-
terward: I'VE have done expanded. "
The effort of the Democratic party
should be confined to carrying on the
work of establishing settled govern
ment in Porto Rico and our Pacific is
lands upon the old, we'll settled and
successful lines applied to all our other
acquisitions of foreign territory by
purchase or conquest.

nNr rMIN nIsCARDEp

Our esteemed friend, the Philadel-
nsa Inquirer, having discovered the
many glaring faults in its former idol,
QUAY. we are led TO inquire. what will
il DO with Addicks? For years it wac
the o3seluious and fawning servant OF
the former. and when the latter came
into view and copied and enlarged on
the methods of the Pennsylvania boss,
ths Inquirer recognized a kindreispIit,
ambassadors, reporters, correspondents
and Office boys were instructed to care
for the interests Of the precocious
uair
Now that the Inquirer has discoy-
cred the rascality, brutality and cor
nrption Of one of the twins, what is
it going to do about the other? Quay
is no worse now than he was through
all the years our contemporary re-
garded him as the wisest and the no
blest figure in politics. Indeed as far
as a public exhibition of brutal ma
chine politics is concerned, there Is
greater reason for admiring his present
course than during the years the In
auirer was covering him with siclzen-
ing adulatiOn.
OF course its motive in champion
ing Addicks was that he was recog-
nized as a kindred spirit of Quay, and
no paper could consistently support
one, and oppose the other. But now
that the Inquirer has received new
light, and has found to its horror that
the Pennsylvania machine under Quay
is using money TO defeat the will of
the dear people, will it still give COM
fort and support to the money-bag Of
Delaware? We want evidence that the

recalled the country and Republican
party to the fundamental fact that
criticism Of the present policy of the
Government under President Roosevelt
is criticism of the same policy under
President Mckinley. The policy re-
mains the same. If it is wrong now,
it was wrong then. If the President
and the Senate are wrong now in the
Philippines. the Chief Executive and
Senate were equally wrong when Presi-
dent Mckinley reached his momen-
tous decision.
The decision reached then must be
carried out now. 1t has been in Cuba.

reciprocity and self-government for the
Philippines are but additional steps in
the path to which President Mckinley
led the nation.
Its material development and pros
perity can only come, as Senator Han
ma urges, by the harmonious action of
capital and labor. Both are organized.
Neither can exist nor act alone. The Re
public needs and has a right to expect
from both the mutual concessions and
consideration which render efficient
action possible.
This is a broad. full, free policy. II
LOOKS backward as well as forward and
regards the rights of all. Senator
Hanna in urging it, gives the Repub-
lican party the broad argument and
plea by which it will move on to vic
tory next fall.

ALCOHOL IN THE ARTs

Early in December CONGRESSMAN
Joy introduced a bill which we think
deserves full consideration. It pro-
vides for a reduction OF the present
tax on alcohol used in the mechanical
arts. The average man has no con-
cepton of the Importance of this ar
ticle in manufactures. nor an idea of
how many articles of daily necessity
require ii in their preparation. The
tax is now $1.10 per gallon. and the
bill calls for a reduction to 20 cents.
In the preparation OF drugs. and
many proprietary articles, and also in
the chemical industries. large quanti-
ties are used. from the manufacture OF
a bottle of perfumery to that OF a por-
celain bathtub. it is a necessary ar
tiole A chemist could mention a
hundred articles which require alcohol
for their preparation.
The present high rate Of taxation
has crippled many industries, and hum
dreds of articles bear the label, MADE
in Germany" because that country is
more liberal in imposing taxes on such
necessary articles. One curious fea-
ture Of our laws is that while the with
drawal of distilled spirits under bond
for expectation, without paying a tax
is allowed, yet when alcohol is used in
the manufacture of articles which are
for export, the tax is exacted.
In European countries they handle
the matter differently: there, in most
countries. a system of untaxed alco-
hol for use in the arts, prevails. Based
on COMPARISONS with the experiences
OF other countries, it is estimated that
a reasonable reduction of the tax would
not decrease revenues. It would be
used so extensively in increased manu-
facture. and in the products of new
industries. that the consumption would
increase enormously. Besides, it
would discourage the Illicit manufac-
ture of spirits.

Colonel Andrew ]. Woodman has
many interesting, as well as valuable
relies of the Civil War, with which he
has practically covered the walls OF his
den in his home in Pennsylvania ave-
nue..
Colonel Woodman enlisted in the
First Maine Regiment in 1861, but was
in service but a short time when he
was transferred to the recruiting SER
vice. When the Maine cavalry was or
ganized he accepted a lieutenancy and
went with the regiment to the Gulf,
where he did valuable service. He con-
tinued in the service of his country
until December 21, 1865, and the only
injury he received was one on the
leg, caused by his horse throwing him.
Among the relics which Colonel
Woodman prizes so highly, is a gun
which was taken by himself from a
Confederate soldier who was captured
by him single-handed. The rifle is a
muzzle loader of the style common in
days of '6L In the stock is a pocket,
covered with a brass plate, in which
the soldier carried his bullets, and at
the time of seizure there was but one
bullet in it. and that is there today.
Story of the Capture
In speaking of the capture of the
Confederate, Mr.. Woodman said:
we were stationed at Pensacola,
Fla. and we're on a shrmishing ex-
pedition through Alabama, when l saw
some of the sharpest fighting l was
ever in. My regiment was under the
command of General Spnrling, with
orders to operate with Sherman. We
were ON one side of the Confederates
and General James II. Wilson on the
other. while in Georgia, and were sup
posed to keep the rebels from going
North while Sherman was operating
in the lower part of the State. 1t was
while returning from the northern part
of that State that we got into sharp
skirmish. Our men w6re lined up be-
hind trees. and from that point of
vantage poured such damaging volleys
into the enemy that caused them to
break and retreat singled out the
man who carried the gun you see
hanging on the wall, and after a chase
of several miles captured him.
"The pursuit led into a woods and
the man would have got away from me

not hurt you" He offered no resist

ARour ADVERTISING

The sensible merchant, while using
his own Judgment in the conduct OF
his business, yet is wise enough to

Il is the CONSENSUS Of opinion among
great advertisers that the only medium

An association Of merchants in Read

Experienced merchants say that ad.
