AN ADMINISTRATION OF ACTION


.'None can foratell the future; but
/ there seems no reasonable cause to
doubt, that under the policy already ef-
fectually inaugurated. the institutions
already implanted. and the processes
already begun, in the Philippine Is
lands. if these be, not repressed and in
4 terrupted the Philippine people will
follow In the footsteps of'the people of
| Cuba; that more slowly indeed. because
/ they are not as advanced. yet as surely.
they will grow in capacity for self

as conditions ard needs differ, but the
same in principle and the same in beSe-

Success in that enterprise greatly
concerns the credit and honor OF the
American people. and 1t is for them to
say whether the building of the canal
shall be in charge of the men who made
its building possible or of the weak

DELAY PORT ARTHUR ATTACK.
Washington Hears That General Nosi,
Not Qku Is to Lead Assault.

Washington. June 21.-An explana-
tlon Of the Japanese campaign on the
Lao Tung peninsula, especially with
reference to Port Arthur is contained
In an advice that has reached this city
from source believed to be absolutely
reliable. The japanese tactics which
have so puzzled the Rus are In
tended to isolate Port Ar. I, but do
not contemplate an attack on the place
by General Okus army. The actual
work OF reducing Port Arthur will be
conflded to another Japanese army un-
der command of General Nogi. which
will be landed on the peninsula (and
indeed may even now be landed) at a
point south of General Oku's position
and considerably nearer Port Arthur.
June / no less than twenty-six trans
ports had been gathered at one OF the
Japanese ports to embark this army.
and il is probable that the vessels at
tackled by the Vladivostok squadron
were of this number.

reports that no serious fighting has oc-
Cured around Port Arthur. Only few

operations having not yet begun.
Lieutenant General Zilinsky. chief OF

following telegram to the minister OF
war, under date of June 10:
According to information received
from Port Arthur, on June IA. three
Japanese battalions pushed forward

Between the 30th Of June, 1900, and
the LIST OF June, 1904, our treasury de-
partment collected in revenues the
enormous sum of 2.2o3,OO0,000 and ex-
pended S2,o2S,00O 600, leaving US with a
surplus of over sl70.O00,000 after pay
ing the s50,0o0,000 for the Panama
canal and loaning $4.600000 to the st
Louis exposition. Excluding those two
extraordinary payments. which are in
vestments from past surplus and not
expenditures of current income, the
surplus for this year will be the rea-
sonable amount of about $l2,000,00O."
"The money Of the country IN circu-
lation has not only increased IN amount
with our growth in business, but 1t has
steadily gained in the stability OF the
basis on which it rests. On the 1st of
March. 1897, when the first ad,ninistra-
ton OF Mckinley began, we had in the
country, including bullion In the treas
ury, s1,S06.272,O76. This was $z3.l4 per

ministration of Mckinley began. the
money in the country was ,295,-

-Four wears ago the regulation by
law of the great corporate comblna-
tions called trusts stood substantially
where it was when the sherman Anti
Trust Act of 1890 was passed.
"At every election, the regulation OF
trusts had been the football OF cam
paign oratory and the subject of many
insincere declarations
Our republican administration has
taken up the subject in a practical,
sensible way as business rather than
a political question. saying what 1T
really meant, and doing what lay at it's
hand to be done to accomplish effective
regulation.
THE attorney general has gone on In
the same practical way, not to talk
about the trusts by law for their regu-
lation. In separate suits fourteen OF

THE TARIFF RESOLUTIONS.
Generally Expected That tho Massa-
chusetts Plank Will Be Incorporated.

Chicago. June 21.--The early morning
hours developed a tendency towards
the adoption of the tariff policy out
lined by the Massachusetts republican
convention, which, while recognizing
the worth OF the present tariff law, de-
clares no schedules are sacred or neces-
sarily permanent. Senator Lodge is
understood to be the author of that
plank, and the fact that he will be
chairman Of the committee on resolu-
tions gives strong color to the surmise
that he will press similar declaration
upon the national convention. When
spoken To on the subject Lodge would
not admit his interest in that form OF
declaration. and friends OF that policy
say it will leave the door open for re-
vision If thought judicious. while not
making 1t mandatory.

sistence of Roosevelt.

Organization.
The roll of temporary officers was
then read and approved by the conven-
ton. A resolution was adopted that
until a permanent organization was eff
fected the convention be governed by
the rules OF the last national republican
convention. Following the list came the
call of the roll of states for names of
persons selected to serve on the perma-
nent organization, rules, credentials
and resolutions committees. The con-
vention approved the action OF the ma
tional committee. giving Porto Rico two
delegates, Philippines six, with two
votes. AS the roll call advanced the
galleries began to empty and the dele
gates mingled on the floor. There was
much confusion. Several impromptu
receptions occurred In various parts of
the hall Speaker Cannon. in the Hill
nois delegation. WAS the center OF a
group. and Chauncey NJ. Depew was
fairly routed out of his seat by the
number Of delegates who pressed
around him. Chairman Root announced
the time and place of meeting Of the
various committees and said there
would be meeting at the Auditorium
tonight, at which prominent men would
speak. Senator Depew presented to the
convention an invitation from the
Louisiana Purchase exposition for the
delegates and representatives OF the
press to attend the exposition at the
close of the convention. The invitation
was accepted The convention adj
journed at 2:12 until noon tomorrow.

Vice Admiral Makaroff's death is
really a greater loss than would be
that of several battleships. He was
the pride Of the navy and enjoyed the
implicit confidence of his sovereign as
well as of the officers and men of the
service. Speaking of hfs DEATH officers
here all remarked upon the strange IA
tality that he should lose his life on n
heavily armored battleship, TO which
he had particular aversion. This was
the first time he had raised his flag on
battleship, while previously he had
gone out on board the cruiser Novik
or the cruiser Askold 1t was at the
urgent request of his friends that he
did not risk his life in this fashion and
so transferred his flag to the Petro-
pavlovsk.

sky, who is now in charge of the feet
at Port Arthur, is able to go to sea
with four battleships which it is not
certain ne can 90, vice Admlral logo

perior force. 1t is pointed out that all
the japanese admiral need now do is
to be outside Port Arthur. and trans
ports can pass with absolute impunity.
