THREE THINGS THAT HISS.

We believe it was Senator Till
man, who, in addressing demo
cratic national gathering, stopped
in the course Of his remarks to
pay his compliments to some one
in the audience who had Kissed
him. and said: "There are three
classes of things that hiss-one
is the serpent, one the goose.
and the other thing is man. :"
The serpent which crawls around
over the face of the earth
is hated and despised by all
things, and can be excused for
such an offense, for it is a hated
thing which all people greet with
a club and feel that it should be
killed wherever met. The goose
is supposed to be the silliest
creature that waddles and to
this class of foul belongs the
right to do anything or make any
kind Of noise without giving Of
fence. But it is hard to conceive
of any kind of human being that
would initiate the serpent and
desire to place itself on level
with that hated species, that
reviled thing which apparently
has had no place in the world
since the story of the Garden of
Eden was writ. It is difficult,
too, to imagine what kind Of
notion any man might have that
would lead him to initiate the
goose. But the serpent, the
; goose and the man are practi-
cally on the same level, when
they indulge in Kisses. Still
at the same time, there are men
who hiss.

of $3.50, 100000, as stated by
Judge Parker. Democrats as
well as Republicans regard this
outburst as insuring democratic
defeat. The figures here quoted
are official. and no demo
cratic member of Congress has
ever challenged them. They
were as accessible to Parker as
they are to your correspondent,
or to any other person who cares
to inquire. The wildly exager-
ated assertions of the democrat
ic nominee were therefore, en-
tirely inexcusable and only the
more rabid elements of the dem
ocratic press attemps to excuse
the outburst.

Elect q Republican House.
Nearly every American citizen who
will vote for president In the coming
election will also vote for represent
alive in congress. It Is to be hoped
that no Republican VIII fail to vote for
the Republican candidate for congress
in his district. While the national
honor and the public welfare demand
the election Of President Roosevelt,
and while the reasons for his election
are overwhelming and unanswerable,
those for the election Of Republican
house Of representatives are equally
So. With a Democratic house Mr..
Roosevelt would be almost helpless to
carry out the great Republican policies
30 which he is committed. No Repuh-
liean should be induced by any con-
sideration not to vote for the Repub-
lican candidate for congress in his dis

Now Brother Savage your little
scolding. and unnecessary per-
sonal illusions to the editor Of

bird seed upon our calloused
carcass. THE TINES has defined
it's position and hasn't word to

Brown, D. D., Secretary OF the
Board of Foreign Missions of the
Presbyterian Church on the U.
S. A., has written; that American
citizens should be thankful that
during the emergence of our
country as an Asiastic power,
our national policy should be
shaped by such menas Mckinley,
Roosevelt, Hay, Root, and Taft,
These men have shown a bold
ness of initiative, a wisdom OF
execution, a fertility of resource
and a breadth of mind and heart
which place them among our
greatest statesmen. There
should be no politics in ouf sup
port of their policy, no sectarlan-
ism in our prayer that the God
of nations may continue to guide
Alright those upon whom SUCH
solemn. responsibilities nay
rest"
No prominent churchman has
expressed an opposite view.
Nor has a prominent lay man who
has been to the Philippines and
knows whereof he speaks.

Candidate Parker asserted that
the Philippines had been won
at the sacrifice of over 200,O 900
lives. The total loss of life from
all the causes including alcohol
ism and other evils brought on
the troops by their own indis-
cretions, amounted to but 4, 222
men. The total Filipino loss did
not rnach 10000, SO that com
bining the two there we're but
1922 lives lost and many OF
these were lost in a heroic and
successful attempt to stamp out
the plague and other contagious
diseases which had prior to
American occupation, run riot in
the archipelago. So much for
Judge Parker's 100000 lives
sacrificed"
With great vehemence the
democratic presidential candi-
date declared that the Philip
pines had cost the United States
$65o,000,000. During the last
Congress Secretary Root sent to
the Senate a report showing that
the total cost of the Philippines,
including the purchase price,
amounted up to May, 1902, to
$189. 100000. The figures now
show that for the next year the
cost to this country was $780,
900 and for the fiscal year just
ended, So, 100, 900, a total to June
