THE DAY We CELEBRATE.

The Glorious Fourth will be more
generally celebrated to-day than for
forty years. The celebrations that have
been arranged for to-day are greater
in number and more elaborate in de-
tail than for many years; and they
will stretch practically around the
world In Guam and Tutuila, in
Alaska and the Caribbean sea and the
Philippine archipelago, there will be
the booming of cannon, the fiuttering
of the flag and the screaming of the
American eagle. The Philippine cele-
bration, however, will be rather novel
one. 1t will probably be the first func-
ton Of the kind under the Stars and
Stripes in which the Declaration of In
dependence win have no part. Consid-
ering all of the circumstances, it is
deemed to be inadvisable that the inn
mortal Declaration should be too much
paraded or glorified in the islands, just
at present. On a day to come, possibly,
the Filipino orator may clear his throat
and start off, when in the course of
human events" But that day is not
yet. The Declaration to-day must give
place in the Philippines to the pro-
clamation Of the Philippine act recent
ly passed by Congress. 1t is predicted
that the Filipinos will be so we'll pleas
ed by that proclamation that they will
not notice the absence of the Declara-
ton.
Locally the Fourth promises to be
enjoyable and enjoyed. There viii be a
practical suspension of business, and
the population will move on the near
by resorts for a day of rest and recre-
alton. There will be no orations, except
possibly some impromptu addresses
where three or four are gathered to-
gcther and the patriotism becomes
burning. Still it will be a great day,
with a plenty of fireworks and amuse-
ments and patriotism.
The Savannah morning news. (Savannah, Ga.) 1900-current, 1902-07-04
CURRENT COMMENT.

The Philadelphia Record Dem),
says: "In the final revision the Phil
adelphia act does not adequately pro-
tect the natives from the exploitation
of their lands by spectators. The
reduction of the amount of land which
agricultural corporations may hold
from 5000 to 1000 acres will not pre-
vent the organization of a gigantic
and ruthless land monopoly since it
will be as easy for any number of
these corporations to combine as 1t is
to form a Trust in this country.
Where was the homestead champion,
Galusha A. Grow, when the Philippine
bill was going through the legislative
mill ?"
The New York Evening Post (Ind),
says: Lovers of fair fighting cannot
but deplore Senator Baney's failure
yesterday to observe the Marquis og
Queensberry rules. No member of the
United States Senate, which is now
producing so many eminent pugilists,
has the slightest excuse for not know
ing that striking in a clinch is not al
lowed, except on the break-away. and
that hacking is absolutely never al
lowed. Evidence is conflicting as to
weather Bailey actually struck in the
clinch, and the public will probably
remain III ignorance Oh lilS point un-
til the sporting editor of the Congress
sional Record reviews the facts"
The Chicago Chronicle (Dem.). says:
I'm the course of his testimony before
the senate committee Admiral Dewey
said to Mr. Patterson. populist-dem-
ocrat. of Colorado: I think you are
making altogether too much of Aguin-
aldo. This is true not only of Sena-
~
other so-called Democratsin and out of
congress. If the Democratic party
of Messrs, Bryan. Patterson and
others-were in power to-day Agui-
naldo would be treated with as scant
courtesy as was shown 10 Billy Bow
legs in the everglades of Florida many
years ago The attempt TO make a
George Washington out of this con-
temprible little plunderer and assassin
has been a dismal failure, and men
of sense ought to be ashamed of the
part that they have played in it,"

There is only one explanation of
the low prices of the common and
preferred stock of the United States
Steel Corporation, better known as the
Billion Dollar Steel Trust, and that
is that there is a lack of confidence
in the corporations stability At the
end of its first year it was shown
that its net earnings were sac. 600 600
more than sufficient to pay all fixed
charges. seven per cent. on the pre-
ferred and four percent. on the COM
mon stock. The report for the last
quarter made public a day or two
ago, shows that the net earnings were
over $37, 900, O00-that after paying all
fixed charges and the usual dividends
on the stock, common and preferred,
there remained $40, 100000 of undivided
profits
The trust is paying enormously, and
II is difficult to see why the corpora
ton should desire 10 get $50, OO0 900
for the purchase of additional plants
by canceiling 100000 shares Of its pre-
