Waterbury Democrat., 1903-01-21

The subcommittee of the judiciary at Washington, to which was intrust- ed the drafting of an antitrust meas ure in accordance with the recommen- dations of the attorney general, evi- dently made series of blunders in the performance of their task, for they went back to do their work over again. They had announced that. they would be prepared to favoraibly report their bill on Friday, but when it was sub mitted to MT Knox he told the authors it was all wrong and they must do it all over. They are now working un- der the immediate supervision of MT Knox's subordinates and 1t is hoped that eventually they will succeed in framing measure which will please the people, work no hardship to the trusts and stand the test of the courts.

When the American flag was plant ed in the Philippines these islands were described as "a veritable EldoradO, from which this country would derive fabulous wealth, not only directly, but indirectly, as the Philippines were to be sort of stepping stone that would en- able us to get hold of the greater share of the trade in the far east" thus writes New York exchanges. When it was objected that the sacrifice of American principles was too great a price to pay for these material gains, the inperialists smiled superciliously
 at the idealism which would place the Declaration of Independence and the constitution above dollars and cents. They were cock sure that our new pos sessions in the Pacific ocean would pay, and they had no patience with such Americans as ex-Governor Bout we'll and the late Thomas E. Reed, who believed that the entire wealth of the Orient would be a very poor exchange for the abandonment of the principles | which had made a few weak colonies a great nation. Secretary of War Root has just given a rude shock to these imperialistic, dreams of wealth by ask | ing congress to appropriate $3,oo0,OOO | to the Philippines, as the revenues of the archipelago has fallen that amount behind the expenditures. This request of the secretary of war draws forth the following comment from the New York 1 World: Alas for the sad contrast of reality with romance! After paying S2o,OOO, GOO to Spain for ''ten million heads of Malays, unpicked," as Tom Reed said. expending $2O0,Oo0,o0o and upward in trying to pick them, secre- tary Root now tells congress that the revenues of the islands are not equal to their expenditures, and that the l least we can do is to vote $3, ,0O0,O00 as a relief to their distressed people. Mean | time the total value of our trade with the Philippines is less than S12,000,OOO
 a year, and it is still costing us at least
 $40. 100000 year more than that to
 bold on. But, of course, we must not
 let go of the Asiatic white elephant

A RIVAL SENATE IS ORGANIZED.
Governor Peabody Urged by the Wolcott Faction to Call Out Wroops In Their BehaIf-He
 RefuReR to Interfere.

DENVER, Jan. 21.-Both houses Of the general assembly balloted for Unit ed States senator at noon yesterday, and Henry M. Teller received hfty votes, only one less than is needed to elect Senator Mcclure, Democrat, refrained from voting, but he has said he would vote for Teller if 1t should appear that he could be elected. Only two Republican senators were in the senate chamber when the vote was taken, and they did not respond when their names were called.
 Soon afterward the nine regular Re- publican senator's with the two who were expelled by the Democratic ma jority and the eight contestants who were sworn in on the steps of the cap1- tol Monday night, assembled In the lieutenant governors room and formed @ separate organization, the senate oth- cers previously chosen being ordered removed. A ballot was then taken for senator A resolution was adopted that the senate had reorganized and was ready for business. Subsequently two of the regularly elected Republican sen- ators, Drake and Cornforth. left the Haggott senate and returned to the senate chamber, where they announced that they would act with the regular senate and would no longer partici- pate in farce"
 Edward O. Wolcott, the leading Re- publican candidate for senator, and his followers are urging the governor to call out the militia to place Haggott and the Republicans in possession of the chamber. ...-. Governor Peabody said that he would not interfere. His friends are advis- ing him to keep his hands off, and they declare that if he shall recognize the Haggott senate no legislation can be enacted at this session, and the state government must go without funds for two years, as appropriation bills could not be legally enacted.
 The Republican leaders in the house refused to carry out the Wolcott pro- gramme and unseat the eleven Arapa- hoe Democrats. The senate remains in continuous session, but will not re- move any more Republicans pending further aggression by the house.
