Fined Fifty Dollars.

John Carson of Division street; Mrs.
Ann Sheridan, of Sixteenth street, and
James Black, of Frink street, who
have been running unlicensed saloons
under the guise of social clubs, were
each fined $50 yesterday by Police
Magistrate Davies.
These cases have attracted consid-
cradle attention by reason of the fact
that the court has granted charters to
social clubs which have overridden
their authority in the sale of intoXi-
cants. In all probability the cases will
be appealed to court, in order to have
the matter definitely settled

THE FRIARs' LANDS IN THE PHILIPPINES.

correspondent asks, "WLat is the reason that the
United States government proposes to acquire the
lands owned by the Catholic church in the Philippine
islands and why should the Friars themselves be
removed? Wolld this conflict in any way with that
clause of the constitution guaranteeing to every
the right to worship according to the dictates Of his
own conscence?'
The reason the United states government is en-
deayoring to acquire the lands of the Frars in the
Philippines the administration and it's friends claim,
is mainly to get Of the Friars 1t is proposed when
they are acquired to them into public lands open
them to homestoaders, with limitation upon the
quantity of land which be acquired by any one
individual corporation to prevent the growth OF
land monopoly.
The objection the administration has to the Frars
is that they are Spanish in sentiment as in race and
antrAmerican 70 an extreme degree and it thought
that the pacifcation Of the islands would be effected
more readily in their absence.
There is doubt that If the administration intends
to retain the Philippines permanently the with travail
of the Frars and the substitution Of American Catholic
priests good policy. The Trors are irroconclabcs
and tend to keep alive the desire for separate Filipino
nationality.
There is intention upon the part OF the admins
traton to Interfere with the religion OF the Fpinos in
any way.
The pope has given a verbal promise. according to
the dispatches from Rome that the Friars will bo
withdrawn. Whether tho administration win insist
upon written pledge remains to he Seen.
