PHILANTHROPY AND FIVE PER CENT"

1t was Lyman j. Gage, secretary Of the treasury in
President McKinleys cabinet who declared in a speech
made at Savannah, Ga, that the Philippine war was
one in which philanthropy and per cent went hand
IN hand
Now II this doctrine we're the doctrine of only ono
man, however high official and however prominent
as a statesman that might be, IT would call for
nothing more than deep feeling of regret at such
bunting Of the moral sense and u good man going
wrong Making for selfdefcnse is terrible enough
although 1t is justhable but making war for 3 per
cent rs high crime; when in addition to the crime Of
merconary warfare the false claim is up that 1t is
covered by the motive Of philanthropy the guilt is in
creased by the oGenso of Hypocrisy one of the ranes
ohcnses that 3mcl to heaven
If there were only in our country guilty Of
the advocacy Of infamous policy there would be
occasion for alarm But the president of the United
States the minority of the senate the majority Of
the house are of the mind as Mr.. Gage They
arc wagng war for philanthropy and per cent" All
sorts of atrocities and cruetes accompany this pratt
cal war They have mp the black flag on the same
flagstaff rs the stars and Stripes and they tell us that
The black deeds committed under tho black flag must
not be condemned because the Stars and Stripes are
there too. Surely there Is something wrong with our
nation whom the majority of the leaders and represent
attves of The people repeal the moral law and amend
the decalogue by striking out the nots" Or do these
leaders and representatives OF the people misrepresent
them? And will The people put things right at election
time?
Not only is the wholesale disregard of right shown
the foreign policy of the government The domestic
policy Is quite bad The trusts have our business
aud industry entirely in their control that they take
tribute of our people in amounts far beyond the widest
dreams OF any Asatic satrap. There are only two

REPRESENTATIVE BURTON AND HANNAlsm.

The case of Hon Theodore r. Burton, the represent

edge this readily although Mr. Burton is a stanch

seem to have made up their mnds TO force Mn Burton

is of distinct advantage to the whole country
Before considering the line Of action taken by Son
Hanna and his to down Representative Bur

than do so. 1t would be great misfortune for the
commercial interests of the country should events so
Shape themselves to involve his Withdrawal lie

any man in the United States engineers not excepted"
Now the objection the republicans have to Mr. Bur
ton is that he is too good man He serves the coun

are not in politics for their health for the good
tho country. They in politics for the good of Sen

Representative Burton renominated. 1t is n
concededly republican district which he represents
Guiding the city of Cleveland whore he lives. The
nomination at tho hands of the people who recognize
his services means reelection. But Senator Hanna
and the gang have resolved to handicap him by putting
in a boss as chairman of his campaign committee to
whom he would be under obligations aud whose as
signed duty 1t would be to control him. Mr.. Burton
claimed the right to name his own chairman as he was
the candidate The Hanna crowd voted in their own
man, Now Mr.. Burton does what it expected he
would do. He has threatened to resign Before going
home to about It, however he has lodged a com
plant against four Federal officials in Cleveland who
were actively engaged in the Hanna conspiracy con

activity the part of Federal employees The pres

THE PASSING OF THE DUDE.

writer in the New York Mail and Express calls
attention to tie disappearance of the dude The man
of fashion is stl with u.s. but he is of the athletic sort
nowadays and not of the exquisite type to which the
dude belonged.
The dude was the descendant of the blood the buck
The ncroyable the macaron the beau, the fop the
dandy and the swell who delighted past generations
he dressed his predecessors did in the height of
fashion, usually going good deal beyond it to attain
what he believed was an arstocratic appearance. His
manners were of the blase kind affected to give him
what he believed was an air of superiority Instead of
being aesthetically beautiful the dude was only weak
Instead of being distinguished. he was merely vapid
The stage door johnny is still with us He is a col
egc boy usually and is quite harmless We have older
men who are cubmen, and men older still who are
roues But the prevailing type Of the man of fashion
young and old, no longer resembles the dude The
man of fashion nowadays is athletic broadshoudered
an outdoor man. with tan on his cheeks and the sun
and wind in his manner and in the sparkle of his eye
What has brought about the change and why has
the dude disappeared? The writer in the Mail and Tx
press gives the credit to the American girl a. says
the American girl, with my little wish, killed Cock
