The Unionist (union labor) Of Nor
folk, Va, says that at the recent Sth
annual convention Of the Virginia
state federation of labor in Rich
mond, that body practically indorsed
William Randolph Hearst for presi
dent in the following resolutions:
Whereas, The Virginia state fed
Grafton of labor, in eighth annual con-
vention assembled, feel and know how
much better it is to build a memorial
of ones own Immortality while one is
still upon the earth, instead of under
it, and to fashion warm hearts and
tender recollections Of grateful hui
man beings than to have them built
of cold and senseless marble by money
ground from the poor during pc
nurious and cruel mortal existence.

Whereas, The worth of a nation
in the end is the worth of the indi-

Spangled Banner" in accordance witE
a law of the Philippine commission
that, whenever the former music is
played, the latter shall be also. The
account adds that the play, including
"Aguinaldo's March," was always re
ceived with rapturous applause by the
Filipino audience, while "The Star
Spangled Banner" was heard in si-
lence, if not with groans and Kisses.
What a gratifying illustration this
incident affords of the Filipino devo-
ton to American sovereignty, OF
which we have heard so much from
the administration press.
Lord Brougham, in his valedictorJ
to the English people, declared that
the chief cause OF the slow progress
of civilization is found iii the TN
Willingness to profit by the experience
of mankind. The suppression OF the
play in question is an illustration oil
the truth of his statement. The ad =
ministration could hardly have adopt"
ed course better calculated to IN
tensify Filipino hostility to American
sovereignty. The little Americans
who have been running this govern
ment since 1896 doubtless imaginr
themselves big enough to extinguish
the fires of Filipino patriotism by such
tyrannical acts as this, but they will
learn as all other tyrants in histocy
have learned that patriotism is like
truth, of which the poet says:
Truth crushed to earth shall rise
again;
The eternal years, of God are hers. y
AS for the "Aguinaldo Marcn
versus "The Star Spangled Banner"
how beautiful a plan it is to endear
the foreign invader to the Filipinos
by associating with one of their ma
tional songs another national song
which represents to them all that
they have been taught to hate! Il
this is not craftsmanship, what is it?
But what has become of the per
sonal liberty of which President Nc
Kinley, President Roosevelt, ct al,
have prated so much? Neither the
Taft commission nor any other m"
constitutional body Of men, neither
the congress nor the president, nor
any other constitutional authority
has any more right to require The
rendition of 'The Star Spangled Ban.
ner" in the Philippine islands than
they would have to compel the play
ing of "God Save the Queen in
Washington, D. G. The so-called
claw" requiring it is simply another
of the long series of unconstitutional,
un-American, despotic acts which
have from the outset characterized
our seizure and occupation OF the
Philippine archipelago.
But, by the way, who is this Aguin-
aldo, the march in whose honor is SO
popular with the Filipinos at their
national theatre? Surely, he cannot
be Aguinaldo the bribe-taker, who
sold out his people to the 'Spaniards,
the coward, the renegade, the mur-
derer, the man who never representa-
more than a small portion of single
tribe, the man who was so despised
and hated by the Filipinos themselves
that the administration, out of the
kindness of it's heart, kept under
guard after he should have been re-
leased, lest, if he appeared unpro-
tected on the streets of Manila, he
would be mobbed by his own coun
trymen Surely he cannot be this
Aguinaldo? JOHN SAMPSON.
