NORTHERN METHODS

The negro question bobbed up rather un
expectedy in a recent discussion in the
House of Representatives. Mr.. Gilbert, OF
Kentucky, said that In his State, and In TACT
in all the South, they look with supreme
contempt on the social equality of the races
The most ignorant white girl in the State
would infinitely prefer to marry the lowest
Ignorant white man In the world, rather
than the most cultivated negro In A merica
He reminded the Republicans that they
could not cry down "the faint In the blood"
He recalled the fact that when a colored
man was q member of the House not one of
hia Republican colleagues inv tied him to
their homes.
The prejudice against social equality was
as strong in the North as in the South, he
declared, and all talk to the contrary was
"hypocriticaly rot and rant" In the course
Of his remarks Mr.. Gilbert gave his version
Of Taylor's flight from the State after the
murder of Goebel. lie described Mr.. Tay.
Tors appearance at the Philadelphia Con.
venlion characterizing him as an "assassin"
who was made an idol" In the North
The debate became quite bitter at times and
several sarcastic illusions were made to the
racial feeling of the different sections OF the
country.

"a GLANOE BACKYARD"

The Boston Herald takes the present &C
casion to recall to mind the words OF Presi
dent McKinley's message of April II, 1898,
setting forth the reasons why the United
States was justified in demanding, and, If
necessary, obtaining by force, a cessation of
the warfare in Cuba. 1t was the inhuman-
ity that marked the efforts of Spain to sup
press the Instruction which constituted the
chief basis Of the Presidents claim that the
United States had right to intervene lie
characterized the reconcentrado policy as
"the addition to the horrors of the strife OF
new and inhuman phase, happily unprece.
dented In the modern history of civilized
Christian peoples" In our dealings with the
Filipinos, we have not only resorted to the
reconcentrado policy ON large scale, but
there is no longer any doubt that torture
has been employed to effect our purposes,
the only question being as TO the extent to
which 1t has been used. "Let US imagine,
II we car" says the Herald, "what President
Mckinley would have said 10 his message
- NANhS hoN bSSh ouy Ol
the use oil torture by Spanish officers To com
pei captured Cubans TO betray their rela
tiyes and associates in the instruction.
Having said of the reconcentrado policy,
1T is not civilized warfare, it is extermina
ton; the only peace 1t can beget is that OF
the wilderness and the grave, which is very
strong condemnation, We do not ourselves
doubt that he would have framed some still
more righteous and indignant appeal to the
humane and Christian sentiment of the peo.
pie OF the United States If there had been
such official testimony to the use Of the tor.
ture by Spanish soldiers as is now being
spread before the country concerning Amer.
lean practices in the Philippines" Has four
years been long enough time TO educate
Americans up to the point Of being indiffr
ent to that which, in 1898, would have
reused their indignation TO fever pitch : 1t
hardly seems as If the commercial advan
tages OF possession of the Philippines were
sufficient to compensate us Tor such "A

a REVOL UzYON TIA T COMES"


Wendell Phillips used TO say: "Revolu.
tions are not made-they come" The New
York Herald, in its issue of Friday last,
quoting this brief expression Of wisdom,
says:
"The conclusive break Of the sixty two
Republicans who voted 10 insert In the Gu
ban bill the amendment removing all differ
entail duties from imported sugars was sharp
when it occurred, but the feeling that In
spired II has been of gradual growth and
attended with no end Of premonitory symp
toms and warning protests"
1t charges the party leaders with indiffer.
ence to platform pledges and to popular sen
timent, with sitting reciprocity treaties, with
high handed championing of special priv
leges 10 the few through excessive protec
ton, bounties and subsidies, and with read.
mess TO sell the country's brthright for q
mess OF beet-root pottage.
Comment on the tariff situation In Con.
gress is becoming more rigid day by day, and
there is no longer doubt about the tariff be
coming commanding Issue In the next pres
idential campaign. Indeed IL threatens party
revolution in the campaign OF this year for
the election of members of the House OF
Representatives. The trouble is afoot, and
all the political skill OF the trained politi-
clans Of the party in power will not be suffi
cient TO avert it. They cannot stop revo
luton which is not made, but "comes."-
They have failed TO adapt themselves 10
natural changing conditions. They have
doggedly adhered 10 policy which may
have been suitable, from their point of view,
at the time Of It's adoption, but they have
failed to meet natural conditions even half
way.
The people who have been commenting
on the mistakes Of the Democrats and 10
preaching the idea Of reorganization and
new inventions 10 doctrine ought 10 be able
to see now that they were not right in try
ing to force a situation. The responsibility
for mistakes in government has been with
the Republicans, and they are making con-
dition for the Democrats to take advantage
of faster than the Democrats could make
themselves. The coming political situation
will not require any revision or change Of
cardinal Democratic principles The Re-
publicans have lived in clover good while
on Democratic mistakes. There is fair
prospect now that the tables will be turned.
The tariff is open, and it will stay open
Two roads have been surveyed and the pol.
iticians of the party now dominant cannot
take either of them without encountering
the most serious embarrassment. Skillful
party management cannot cope with a natu
raj revolution, and the Republicans may
have TO suffer the discipline Of defeat several
times before they can reorganize themselves
again in solid phalanx.
