THE Kootenai County Republi.
can says that whenever a demo
cratic or fusion newspaper begins
to find fault with its party manag-
ers, a flop is usually in order. That
IS true of all organizations depend
ing on the cohesive power Of public
plumber" 1t might have added
that it is also true of newspapers
depending on the cohesive power of
dollars. We had an instance of
that kind in this county during the
campaign Of 1896, when it took but
fifty of these dollars to get a certain
newspaper to hoist the republi-
can ticket at the head Of its COL
umns, just three issues before cleo
ton. There is undoubtedly some
thing more than theory in the
cohesive power Of plumber, either
public or private.

CoLoNIzE TIE COLONY.

A company of millionaires with
$40, 600, 600 of capital, known as
the Philippine Exploration COM
pany, is to colonize SONG Of the
islands, luild trading posts, devel-
op manufacturing, establish sugar
plants, COLOMBO the islands and in
other ways engage in spoliation.
This is what the war is being waged
for and the facts can no longer te
kept from the public. 1t is a war
OF commercial conq-es. waged at
the expense of the people for the
profit of millionaires. We have
millions OF acres Of land in the west
TO be co,onized, but not under the
same conditions that are proposed
IN the Philippines. When the mil
llonaire corporations have those is
lands under their domination the
cheap labor Will be put to work
making all kinds of manufactured
products and these will be shipped
10 the United States in their own
vessels and placed on the market
- compete with American products.
This IS the prospect in view for the
American mechanic, and the mil
ionaires are depending on the re-
publican party to back them up in
their enterprise. Filipinos are be-
ing deprived Of their independence
torthe purpose of commercial plumb
er. The islands will become TO the
United States what India is to Eng
land-a burning disgrace to the
nation and hotbed of brutal com
mercial slavery, pauperism and
starvation subsisting on wages of
few cents day. The plan of col
onization does not contemplate fill
ing the islands with Americans
that would not be proftable-but
rather to take few skilled mechan-
les there to teach the natives, who
are very apt initators, and these
will do the work.

For many years il has been the
belief OF scientists that the missing
link between man and monkey
would he found in Africa. A re-
port now comes from the dark con
tinent that in the heart of that lit
tie known land the ethnologiSts
have discovered amphibia which
unites the characteristics of man
and monkey. 1t lives on land or
in the water and the natives are i'll
dread of it from the fact that it is
cannibalistic. In the same vicinity
is the lowest known type of the hui
man race. These people are scarce
ly distinguiShable from the simian
except in the absence of the prehen-
sile appendage. They are describ-
ed as small and almost covered with
shaggy hair, wear no clothes and
are good tree climbers. Their skin
is of reddish clay color, their fore
heads low and wrinkled. They
have a language and are above the
simian in form and intelligence.
Scientists aud others who study
such matters will watch the result
of further Investigations with much
interest.

GEN. LEONARD WooD, military
governor of Cuba, made some very
pertinent remarks recently when he
said that the relations of the Unit
ed States with Cuba are not for to-
day alone; they are for the near
future, and for the distant future
as well. They are the relations
between two people, near to each
other hitherto in location, but only
recently brought close to each other
in thought and in interests. The
sentimental as we'll as the material
relations which these two people
bear to each other now, and will
bear in time to come, should be
taken earnestly into account and
should be considered with not only
a wise, but with kindly solicitude,
if we would arrive at conclusions
and if we would form decisions
which shall have consequences
worthy Of Our traditions and be OF
genuine advantage to the people of
the continent on the one hand and
of the island on the other. | lay
stress upon the considerations OF
sentiment as we'll as upon the ma
terial aspects of the question OF
reciprocity with Cuba, because at
this juncture there comes the for
tunate possibility OF removing much
that has been misrepresentation, and
the more that has been intentional
misrepresentation" Gen. Wood
favors reciprocity with Cuba and a
liberal policy that will enable her
people to develop the natural re-
sources of the island-the great gar
den spot Of the world.

MANAGER ScHwAB, Of the stee

MANAGER SCHwAB, of the steel
trust, draws salary of 81, 900, 900
year. That is more money, by
several hundred thousand, than any
mans services are worth, conse-
quently in order to be able to pay
such salary the trust must make
it from its business. Who pays this
but the man who buys a plow or a
hoe. or any other agricultural i'm
plcment made of iron or steel. He
pays his share, and every person
who buys any article composed of
iron or steel pays a part of this EN-
ormous salary to Schwab. Still
people tell us that a trust is a good
thing; that it reduces the cost Of
production and will benefit the CON
sumner. There are others who be-
lieye it will prove benefit by do
ing away with the middle men. 1t
may do this and at the same time it
will run the retailer out of business.

WE once knew merchant to try
to palm off an old last years clear,
ance sale poster on the public. The
result might have been expected.
Instead of drawing trade, people
smiled as they read the dates and
found that the posters were too an
cient to be Of present benefit, and
walked by without considering the
matter seriously. That is what we
call mossback business methods
that do more injury than benefit to
mans business. Live, up-to-date
advertising is what counts and
when a merchant thinks he can
fool the people with anything else
he is simply fooling himself.

/ SENATOR HoAR, that old repub-
iican veteran of liberty, is making
it very tropical for his party col
leagues in the United States senate.
He cannot see the justice of max
ing colonial subjects of a people
who had spent years in fighting
Spain for their liberty. To have
their allies, who stepped in and as
sisted them in driving the Spanish
from the Archipelago, turn upon
them and take the place of the van
pushed enemy, IS not Justice, as
Senator Hoar sees it. He seems to
be the one man in his party who
loves liberty and free government
better than gold. He believes that
our present Philippine policy and
the Declaration of Independence do
not and cannot be made to har-
monte.

THE Ministerial alliance of Salt
Lake wants to blot out poiygamy.
1t is charged that polygamous mar.
rlages are still performed, even in
Idaho. The ministers want con.
s,itutional amendment prohibiting
the practice of polygamy in the
United States. There are already
lIws against men having too many
wives; also against adultry, but
adultry is committed just the same
and constitutional prohibition would
not stop it-neither would it stop
the other if people choose to violate
it. Organic law is the foundation
for statute law and is of 10 force

THE wrecked City Savings bank

the poor peoples dollars as they
drop into the Golfers of the gentle

THE secretary of the navy wants
to experiment with crude petroleum
as a fuel for ships. If his ideas are

ship with this highly combusti-
