ment time has seen on "this earth we
inherit" is the best possible proof that
Judge Parker takes purblind view or
the possibilities and benefits OF COLOMBIA
ton. Although separated from the coun-
try that pushed "a backward and inferior
race" from the scene OF Judge Parker'p
speech to the "Avon Beach Regular
Democratic Club of Long Island" does
he think for moment that England has
not shared in what was conquered for
mankind when the independence Of her
American colonies was achieved7
But, beyond all the narrow, petty, and
mistaken views Judge Parker takes OF
history and the onward and upward
sweep of national affairs, stands disclos-
ed the fact that the Democratic candi-
date for President of the United States
is willing to believe everything evil che
lying tongue of SANDER can utter against
American government in the Philippines,
solely because there is Republican ad-
ministration in Washington. 1t seems
almost incredible that n Presidential can
didate should become the willing herald
of every lying rumor bred in the pur-
lieus of Manila.
And to think that he has descended
to this depth, not to force immediate
abandonment OF the Philippines TO the
tender mercies of their own corrupt and
impotent civilization, but to turn over
their preparation for independence to the
party of Tammany, Tweed and Till
mani
Never before has the candidate of q
great political organization stood reveal
ed before the American people In the
role of a credulous dcfamer OF the gov
crnment of his country. 1t sinks Judge
Parker far below the level of his party.

An incident at the recent American
BGnkers' convention in New York illus
tratcd the falsity of this statement and

business prosperity of the South, has
promoted also a feeling of mutual good

colored banker from Richmond, Va,
Joan w. Mitchell, made Il speech which
brought forth tremendous applause, In
which thc delegates from the South Join
ed with the delegates from the North.
MIR. Mitchell said he attended tho con-
vention not only with the consent, but
upon the advice, of the white business
men of the South. He then went on to
show how the prosperity of the Southern
negroes was continually increasing, and
that this was leading all the time to a
better understanding between the better
clements of the two races. AS to the
share OF the negro i'll the present phenom-
enhi prosperity of the South he said:

Buyinr from Abroad,

The less the United States, through a
protective tariff, imports of the things
that its own labor at home can manu-
fGcture just as well as foreigners, the
more it is able to import of nccessaries
and Injuries that cannot be purchased
at home. The consumption of coffee per
capita in the United States, which in
1890 was eight pounds, is now twelve
pounds. Our imports Of sugar, teas,
spices, silks, laces, etc, have increased
considerably during the last eight years.
With the American workingman sure of
good home market for what he pro-
duces, it goes almost without saying that
he will have enough money to buy for
himself foreign luxuries that he could
not dream Of having in Democratic times.

Everybody profits by the growth OF
manufactures. Those who are engaged In
the business either as capitalists or wage
earners profit first of all, but In addi-
tion 10 these are the merchants who
handle manufactured products, the rail-
roads that distribute them, the farmers
who enjoy an increased demand for thsiB
products, and all other classes who share
in general prosperity.

"Undoubtedly II would be possible
at the present time to prevent any of
the trusts from remaining prosperous
by the simple eSpedient of making
such n swcepin1 change in the tariff as
to paralize the industries of the coun-

but their smaller competitors would
be ruined, and the wnGe- workers would
ntarve, while it would not pay the

The People Know and Trust Roosevelt.

1t is fortunate for the Republican
party that its candidate for tho .PreaI-
dency is so well known to the people OF
the United States that no story, no re-
Fiction upon his character or his work
affects the public mind in the slightest
degree. The American people have had
their eyes on President Roosevelt for
many years; they know him. They re-
spect and trust him. The falsi6cations
OF the enemy against him are useless.

If Bryan Democrats are sincere in
their expressed desire to rebuke the HILL

the rebuke more singing by voting for

greater will be the dissatisfaction Of

human, and no man ticks the hand that
smtes him with sincere relish.

So-cnlled independent voters who pro-
fess to see little good in either of the

wise maxim "of two evils, choose the
lesser" No man can be so blindly non
partisan as not to see that the Republi-
can party has done more good for the
country than the Democracy.

Self-Supportinp.

"And, finally, the Democratic candi-
date for the Presidency asks: Are the
Philippine Islands self-supporting COM
munity|
He confesses his ignorance upon this
point in almost the same breath that he
declares them fit for independence and
self-goyernment. If Judge Parker had
made any preparation for his speech, if
he had taken the trouble to inform him
self upon the most important conditions,
he would have known that the customs
revenues alone during the last three or
four years have been seventeen, eighteen
and nineteen million dollars year, an
increase from three, four or five millions
year during Spanish rule; and that the
other revenues have improved in a sim
liar ratio. The islands are not only self
supporting; they not only pay every cent
of the expenses of their government ex-
cepting the maintenance OF the 1000
regular troops now on duty there, but
they could afford an exhibit costing a
million and a quarter at the st. Louis
exposition, and are spending between
three and FIVE million dollars a year in
the construction OF harbors, railways,
highways, water works. electric light
plants, buildings and other public i'm
provements
IF Judge Parker wishes accurate in
formation and wise advice on these sub
jects he can obtain both by asking
Bishop Brent, OF Manila; Bishop Graves,
of Shanghai; Bishop McKim, of Toxic,
all of whom are attending the Episcopal
convention at Boston, or from Father
Nattmap, of the Roman Catholic church,
recently retired as chaplain in the army,
who now lives at Wilmette, III. They
have no political prejudices or afilia-
tons, and if they had they would not al
low themselves to be Influenced thereby
in their judgment or their statements.
Or why will not Judge Parker consult
Governor Luke p. Wright? He is a
Democrat from Memphis. He has occu-
pied an eminent position upon the bench
and is regarded by all who know him
| with admiration, respect and confidence.

tons in a candidate for the Presidency
