Many stops and Speeches.

to this city. The entire party was
driven to the state capitol building,

with rifles, forming an arch over the
desk from which the president spoke.
Fully $4,000 people gave the president
welcome. He made Commute talk.
Ashland, Ore, May 21.-President
Roosevelt yesterday completed his
tour of California and entered upon
the last stages of his long trip. His
journey was through the mountain
Gus region about Mount Shasta,
where the towns are few and far be-
tween, and consequently he was
called upon to do but little speaking.
Salem, Ore, May 22.-Salem pre-
sented gala appearance yesterday

ings the party was escorted to car

WHEN FAT YEARS WILL END
VIII Last as Long as Conditions
Based Upon Present Pros
perity Continue.

The question has been asked:
"When will our fat years end?"
Judging from the past, they may be
counted to end when the conditions
upon which prosperity is based shall
be injured. The greatest support of
the present prosperity is the full en-
ployment of all the people in the
country who must live upon what
they earn. Anything which curtails
this full employment will react upon
the present prosperity, says the In
dianapolis Journal. OF that there
cannot be room for the least doubt.
1t is the great volume of wages and
salaries earned not alone by manual
laborers, but by workers for hire
in every branch of human industry,
that fills the channels of trade.
When these millions are fully en-
ployed at fair wages the country will
enjoy fat years. Any attempt to mod
ify the tariff system along other
lines than protection as the first OBJ
ject, and particularly an attempt to
adopt tariff for revenue only, would
create suspicion and make manufac-
turers timid. while any change in
the tariff that would transfer a por-
tion of our markets to European
competitors would transfer with it
so much employment, leaving idle
men behind. Anything like the sue
cess of a free trade party would end
the fat days.
The multiplicity of strikes, when
they reach stage that they make
it, impossible for manufacturers and
employers to make estimates on the
cost of production, will help to pro-
duce conditions that will invite lean
days Labor was never so well paid
as now, but because it is well paid
il should not be assumed that under
the influence of prosperity there can
be no limit to the amount of money
that can he paid for labor. Men
clothed with a little brief authority
in a labor organization, like the eX-
alted official who spoke lightly of
calling to strike the 100000 men
employed in the steel industry, are a
menace to the indefinite extension
of the period of prosperity.

GORMAN AS CANDIDATE.
One of the Weakest Heads the De-
mocracy Has in View for Its
National Ticket.

In Virginia, at least, Senator Cor
man is favorite for the democratic
nomination for 1904. The members of
the legislature of that state who have
been polled on the question of their
preference for the nomination of their
party for next year are all in favor of
the Maryland man except three, and
their preferences are not stated If
the Old Dominion had as much infiu-
ence now as she exerted at one time in
politics, Gorman's nomination in 1904
would be assured. But that state has
no such pull now as it once had, says
the st. Louis Globe-Democrat.
Undoubtedly German will have some
attraction for few democrats. He is
a shrewd party manager. Under his
lead the democrats in the senate are
likely to steer clear of some of the
blunders that they would drop into if
he were away. There was general re-
ioicing among democrats, especially
through the south, when German re-
entered the senate this year. 1t was
assumed at once that he would be
placed in the lead, as he was immedi
ately. The democrats in that cham
Der had been committing so many alb
surdities and follies that it was natur-
ally felt that any sort of change of
leadership would be better than that
which had been affecting the demo-
Gratis for a few years past.
But German vii never suit the demo-
Gratis of New York or New Jersey. He
would be utterly repudiated by the
democrats of the west. Bryan hates
German worse than he does Hill, eX-
cept as he believes Hill to be stronger
than German, and thus better game
for his gun. German would lose even
Missouri. and he would have no chance
to carry Montana or Nevada. Every
state west of the Alleghanies and
north of Kentucky, Arkansas and Tex
as would go against him. He would
probably be able to carry Maryland,
although this is far from being GER
tain. Outside of the states which con-
stitute the revised and reduced solid
south he would be badly beaten. Cor
man. in 1904, could not get anywhere
so near election as Bryan did in 1900,
The republican party would be glad
to see Virginia have its way in the
selection of a democratic candidate
for 1904 The republicans can win rs
against any man whom the democrats
EN- put up, but German would be one
of the weakest of the democratic as
pirants who are in sight.

IN LUZON THEN AND NOW.
Testimony That Sets mt Naught the
Infia ammatory Talk About ''Fhe
Down-Trodden Filipino"

In a recent issue the Independent
published a letter from a Filipino
who. the editor vouches, was former
ly an insurgent against Spain and the
United States. 1t is an interesting
comparison of what the writer was
able ''to do, to say, and to think,
under Spanish and American rule,
says the Chicago Inter Ocean. 1t is
too long for extended quotation and
its specifications under each of its
three heads must be summarized.
81 could do" he says of the Span
fish regime, 'many things, but all
centered in the ability to attend mass
where l wished" If he neglected
such attendance, he asserts, he was
liable to be denounced as an enemy
of religion and the state and to be
bundled away to Fernando Po. Sim
ilarly he could not speak save in
praise of those in authority, for it
was a sin even to think that the gov
ernment or any of its agents robbed
and oppressed.
Then he gives specifications of what
he could do, say, and think now un-
der American rule. They are inter
esting illustrations of the reality of
freedom in the Philippines, but it is
unnecessary to summarize them, for
this Filipino has done that himself
in his general conclusion.
To-day" he says, II can think,
speak and believe what | please. |
can speak of religion in the way
that seems best to me, respecting the
religion of all. Of course, | am not
permitted, for instance, to steal.
Neither can | be robbed in the name
of the government. | can defend my
rights even against the American in
the highest post and be sure of JUS
tice. / can work for the future of
my country and enter politics. |
can labor for annexation, for a pro-
gressive autonomy, or for free
'fatherland' of my own. [ can ask
no more than this"
Such testimony as this will not be
pleasing to those who are always
talking about "the downtrodden Fill
pino," but the picture it presents, the
comparisons it draws, between con-
ditions in Luzon before Dewey came
and now will thoroughly justify to
every fair-minded American the
righteousness of his country's work
in the Philippines.

OVERTON WAS CARELESS.
ETe and II Companion Were Killed by
Prisoners Whom They Were Guard

Manila, May 1S.-Capt. Clough
Overton, of the Fifteenth cavalry,
and Private Harry Noyes, who were
killed May Is at Sucatlan, Mindanao,
met their deaths at the hands of in
surgent prisoners whom they were
guarding. Their companion in this
duty, Private HartIow, was wounded
mt the same time. Capt. Overton's
troops had been scouting in the de-
partment of Misamis, on the trail of
the insurgent leader, Flores. The
cavalrymen captured 80 of Flores fol-
lowers and confined them in a house
Mt Sucatlan. Capt. Overton and
three men remained to guard the
prisoners while Lieut.. Cameron CON
tinued in pursuit of Flores.
The prisoners suddenly broke out
of the house where they were con-
fined. secured their bolos and rushed
the four Americans on guard. Over
ton was slashed with bolo and bled
to death. After escaping the insurg-
ents gathered and renewed their at
tacks on the Americans. The caval-
rymen who was not wounded repuls-
ed the enemy and defended his dead
md wounded companions until the
return of Lieut.. Cameron. Capt.
Overton is criticized for having kept
only three men To guard 80 and for
having neglected to destroy the in
surgents' bolos.

InciNaiiity of Bryan.

As Mr.. Bryan realizes that ther is
no longer a prospect that he can be-
come president of the United States.
he develops a disposition to assail his
betters in the democratic party. Most
of his public utterances of late have
been abusive of fdemocrats--questio
ing their motives, impugniug their
honesty and denying their word. SO
long as he cherished the idea that he
could reach the white house he was
reasonably circumspect in his treat
ment of democrats who did not agree
with him in all things. When that
hope was eXtinguished he became
studiously offensive. Many years
ago, when Allen q. Thurman. great
er and better democrat than Mr.
Bryan can ever expect To be, was
asked to give young men rule of
conduct which would promote sue
cess in business and political life, he
replied; Keep civil tongue in your
head" If the young man from Ne
braska ever heard this admonition it
was lost upon him.-Chieago Chroni-
cle (Dem.).

London, May 1S.-Mrs. Cunning S.
Bedford, who was arrested by detec-

recently in Paris, leaving property es-
timated to be worth $50O,000 to his

self as the infants aunt, registered
the birth of the child. Eugenie, as
