The following item appears in
Whitelaw Reid's paper, the New York
Tribune: "Governor General Taft
must be a big man in the Philippines"
said North Carolina clergyman the
other day. II have relative, DR..
Stuntz, who is a missionary in the
Philippines, and in securing the site
for a new Methodist church in Manila
he discovered that no law existed by
which nom Catholic bodies could hold
real estate in the islands. DR.. Stuntz
called on Governor Taft and told him
his trouble. Without consulting a
book, OF as much as moving a chair,
he touched bell, summoned his Sec
rotary, dictated law in three sections
covering the whole case, and in fifteen
minutes it was laid down before Gov
ernor Taft. He looked it over, and
then quietly folded it away, saying:
1T will be enacted a law at the next
session of the commission It went
through just as he said"

Last Sunday morning in st. Peters
Church, fifty thousand people as
sembled to celebrate the twenty-fourth
anniversary Of the Pope's coronation.
The pontitical choir chanted the 'Te
Deum" and his Holiness pronounced
the papal benediction. Thirty Car
dinals, numerous Archbishops, and
Bishops, the members of the pontiical
court, the special foreign missions
sent by most countries, the members
of the diplomatic corps, and the Re-
man nobility, all in magnificent vest
ments Or uniforms, participated in the
ceremony and formed a striking spec
tacle.

The Chicago American pokes fun at
Governor Van SAINT and his. staff who
went to Chicago to extend greetings
to Prince Henry. 1t says that Van
slapped his royal higness on the back,
saying ''Howdy," and inserted his fore
finger between the Princes ribs. When
introducing his staff ''the Governor
seized him by the coat and led him
across the room, and made him ac-
quainted with. some of the leading
politicians of st. Paul" AS it was
Vans first time in the presence of
royalty, he did pretty well. The Gov
ernor Of the great State of Minnesota
is not inferior to any European mon
arch, and there is no reason why Van
should crawl and cringe before Prince
Henry as Whitelaw Reid will do be-
fore King Edward of England.

G0uRLAY OF NOVA SCOTIA.

In his address Oh Robert Emmett, in
Chicago, the other evening, Exon
gresham Lentz, of Ohio, made use of
an expression which deserves atten-
ton from patriotic American citizens
Of every political party. He said: eff
it is good policy, if it is correct moral
ity for Great Britain to prevent the
development and growth of republican
governments in South Africa, fhen the
time is ripe for the United States to
prevent the growth and developmnt of
monarchical institutions in North
America"
The monarchical institutions which
Mr.. Lentz had in mind are those of
Canada. That British dependency has
given every manifestation of loyalty to
the English throne during the South
African war. Instead Of remaining
neutral and letting England fight her
own battles on the other side of the
Atlantic, Canada furnished troops to
help England in the destruction of two
little republics, thousands Of miles
away. Some of the greatest outrages
committed on the South African veldts
were committed by Canadians. They
even surpassed the British themselves
in acts Of vandalism.
If the day ever comes that war is
declared between England and the
United States, the loyal Canadians of
Toronto and other British towns in the
Dominion will be eager to fight the
Americans as they have fought the
Beers. There is not the shadow Of a
doubt about it. Though lying contig-
uous to the United States, the Cana
dian provinces are as mOnarchical to-
day as in the time Of the American
Revolution. The inhabitants Of Brit
ish origin hate our republic. They re-
tain all the prejudices against repub-
lican institutions and would be glad to
see the United States grow weaker and
weaker instead of stronger and strong
er every year. .-....
They are enemies at our very doors,
and some outspoken jingoes among
them cannot conceal their animosity.
A Nova Scotia member Of the Canadi-
an parliament, named 8. q. Gourlay,
recently gave vent to his antagonism
in the following bellicose style: "If it
is necessary to fight the Yankees we
will fight them within twenty-four
hours, and after six months we will
capture their capital and annex their
country to Canada" (Cheers)
1t will be observed that Gourlay was
cheered by his colleagues at Ottawa,
and they represented the Canadian
people. Whether they foolishly mag
inc that they can ever cross the bor-
der and sack Washington, as Gen. Rob
ert Ross did in the war of 1872, it is
hard to believe; but that they would
be willing to do SO, there is no doubt.
And these are our neighbors!
If the, United States continues in its
career of Imperialism, we tremble for
King Edwards loyal subjects on this
continent. The Alaskan boundary
question may be the casus belli. II
Mr.. ]. w. Ivey, the American collec-
tor of customs at Sitka, had his way,
the boundary dispute would be soon
settled. II John Hay got booted" by
Roosevelt, as intimated by Congress
man Wheeler, the war-like Canadians
of the Gourlay type would not be long
spelling for fight with the United
States. So long as Hay stays in the
state department the Canadians can
say what they please Of this country.
But Hay will not be there very long,

will not likely have much to say about the choice of a leader, though this ter ritory materially assisted in the third nomination of him. The Phoenix sentiment is mentioned here only for the purpose oi stating that it is only 2 part of the prevailing sentiment in the democratic party all over the United States.
 MT. Cleveland has said that he will not be a candidate for the presidency but he offers to become a leader. As Henry Watterson points out in an edi- torial on the New York love feast. with MT. Cleveland leadership means office. It is quite unlikely that Mir. Cleveland will be nominated for the presidency in spite of the superstition of his party. The whole party leadership could not be brought to agree upon him. Though he is immeasurably stronger than MT. Bryan he would lead d divided host to battle. Populism and silver democ- racy would everywhere be against him and without these important clements of the national democratic party there could not be a shadow of success.

While the Cubans are filled with gratitude toward the American people for setting up the island republic. it is better for a rascal in Cuba to be an American citizen than to be king. But one double-dyed villain has been found. He was not only a convict for rascality in connection with the public funds. but he sought to place himself among the immune by forging United States naturalization papers. After all, though, he was a less disgrace to this country than some of our own country men. We think the Cubans have been altogether too grateful to us. They ought to have compelled the thieves to give up their plunder as condition of the restoration of their liberty.

PHOENIX, ARIZONA, JUNE "A, l902.

When MT. Cleveland retired from the presidency six years ago he was
 more thoroughly hated GROVER by his party, or that CLEVELAND. portion of it living in
 the western and Rocky mountain states than any member of the party had ever been hated. He was worse than hated; he was ue- spised and perhaps there was no com munity west of the Missouri river which would have given him decent reception. In many of the mining camps of Arizona he would have been mobbed, and in Phoenix the misses which would have greeted him would have drowned the volume Of praise which was sent up for William d. Bryan. Mir Cleveland was denounced as the tool of the trusts, the betrayer of the people and the traitor of his party. Some even went SO far as to say that he had never been demo- crat, but had by false pretenses be- come the candidate of the democratic party for the presidency in order that the republican party might have two strings to it's bow, leaving the demo- cratic party without any. It was said by some democrats that MT. Cleveland could not be elected dog catcher of the most dog-ridden community in the United States.
 It is not of record that he ever risked suc;l a test of his popularity but it is a fact that he was able to be elected doctor of laws by Princeton and was otherwise shown some attention. We believe the nomination for dog catcher was not rendered him by any town in which he was qualified if residence to discharge the duties of that office.
 It was said by all the Bryanites and almost admitted by all the friends oi MT. Cleveland 4hat he was a dead cock in the pit" But dead as he may have been there was a recrudescence of rena}ssance of him last Thurs day night and We venture to say that a majority of the democrats of the country believe that he will be the next president of the United States. The democratic party is largely a party of tradition and superstition. It sees in MT. Cleveland a symbol of sue cess. A majority of the party even now would prefer the more amiable and sky-rocketty MT. Bryan, but they are superstitious regarding him and do not want to make the third trip to de- feat. MT. Cleveland, they think, on the other hand, can lead to the offices, the objective point of democratic munich pal, county, state and national poli- tics.
 The leadership of MT. Cleveland is very much talked about in Phoenix just now. Phoenix and all of Arizona

Statehood dances before the eyes or the people of the territories, sometimes
 within apparently easy MIR. QUAY'S grasp and then again MOTION. hopeiessly far off. Less
 than week ago it was agreed that statehood was at least as far away as next December. This mornings dispatches printed in The Republican revive the hope that ad- mission may be immediate.
 Senator Quay will call up his mo- tion to discharge the seemingly dila- tory committee on territories from the further consideration of the omnibus statehood bill. thus bringing the bill directly before the senate for action. He is confident, he says, that he will have a majority of two in support of his motion. If he should succeed the greatest obstacle in the way of the territories will have been overcome. We know that there are many repub- lican senators who will vote for the passage of the omnibus bill who might hesitate to disturb the plans of the committee. II, though. they can be in duced to support the motion Of Mir. Quay the statehood bill may be consid- cred to have been already passed.
 The statement made yesterday by MT. Quay in giving notice that he would call up the motion was the strongest argument for statehood that could have been presented. The ma tional conventions of both parties have already taken out of congress the con sideration of the questions of the rights of the territories to admission and of the advisa bility of admitting them. All that was disposed of in the platforms and there is nothing now before the senate but the duty of car rying out the will of the whole people as expressed in the conventions.
