Sure. Never a doubt of it. From
the day when the first Phoepician
dugout put forth between the Pillars
of Hercules up to the time when
William Mckinley plunged us into a
wicked an causeless war with Spain
nobody ever heard of an officer, a
sailor, or marine taking more than
was good for him and tipping over
tables in a cafe. And this applies
to the sailormen of all flags and
nationslities. That is why the eyes
of the nations are now fixed upon us
in astonishment.
Up to the time when the deadly
virus of Imperialism .was emptied in

the liver, bowels and kidneys become
sluggish and inactive, the digestion i'm

Senator Patterson's Gem of ora.ory

Dispatches to the New York pa
pers would indicate that the senate
is not showing proper appreciation
of the oratory of Thomas NJ. Patter
son of Colorado. A special to the
world says:
Senators are laughing yet at the
remarkable statement of Senator
Patterson of Colorado, who is talking
on the "water cure" in the Philip
pines said that certain admins
tration of the torture lasted all night
and that an American officer "sat all
night until early morning in the
shade of tree and watched it"
Admirers of Senator Patterson will
be panied at the levity which is be-
ing stirred up by the junior senator
from this state. They will see moth
ing remarkable in the Pattersonian
description of brutal officer bask-
ing all night in the shade of tree.
The collected speeches and editorials
of Mr.. Patterson, which we under
stand are soon to be published under
the head of "Oratory as She Is
Spoke" are full of such word pic
lures. They are somewhat confus.
ing to the average mind, but to the
person who has grown used to fol-
lowing the gyrations of Senator Pat
terson's dirigible rhetoric, they are
clear as day. 1t may be that the un-
thinking members of the United
States senate will see nothing but
mirth in the picture of brutal SOL
der sitting under the shade of q
tree at night, but those who really
understand Mr.. Patterson will know
that this cloaks sublime thought
that merely requires a key to be
properly worked out.
We have no doubt that Senator
Patterson will rise to the occasion
and prove to his scofling contempor-
aries how it is possible for man to
sit under the shade of tree during
Philippine night. To be sure, he
has never been to the Philippines,
and from personal observation does
not know anything of conditions
there. But any man who can be 80
free with his long range criticisms of
Philippine affairs as Senator Pstter-
son has been of late, wilt not be at a
loss to explain any such trifiing in
congruity as sunstroke at midnight.

The Lamar register., 1902-05-21

And now it is the Denver Post that
bobs up to show its ignorance by
stating that the republicans elected
fewer members of the legislature in
1900 than 1895. The official state
record shows that the republican
party elected one member of the
legislature in 1896 and II in 1900,
and the same ratio of gain will give
us 121 out of the 100 in 1904 The
editor of the Post would do we'll to
get a political primer and post up
