rs Parker CONSISTENT 2
Would He Haul Dozen Our Flag M
Hn1ca1 and Porto Rico?

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Judge Parker, in his speech before the
Boston anti-imperalists a few days ago. re-
echoed the demand in the Democratic platform for
the contraction OF our rational territory.
Wherever there may exist people Incapable OF
being governed under American laws in consonance
with the American Constitution. the territory OF
that people ought not to be part OF the American
domain"
Porto Ricans, Alaskans. Hawaiians. SaHoahs
and tho people OF Guam come under this declara-
ton. as in these territories Of the United States
the population lis incapable Of being governed
under American laws and in consonance with the
American Constitution" / would like q definite
statement of Judge Parker's views as TO whether
4hA nag must also be hauled down in these terri
tories as well as in the Philippine Archipelago.
There Is another point TO which / would like to
call attention. The Democratic platform states that
one OF the doctrines which Democracy has estab-
nshed as proverbs Of the nation which should be
of church and state" There is no party N TINS
country which does not advocate this policy. and
as a concession tos the btgots in the Democracy

REPRESENTATION OF THE GOVERNED.
Should Veteran Rebel Have Three Votes in
Congress to a Veteran Union Soldiers One

To the Editor OF The Tribune
Sir: Before the Rebellion the South controlled the
Union for sixty years the balance Of power being
secured by counting. according TO compromise In
the Constitution three hfths OF the slaves. who
had no voice and gave consent 90 how they
should be governed az basis Of representation In
Congress planter who held one hundred slaves
had sixty OF them counted while a Northern man.
with the same amount OF property. had only
vote. This was had enough for a government
based on the consent Of tho governed. but since
the war the case Is vastly worse. Now the whole
colored population Is counted IN basis and
their consent Is as much ignored IN slavery.
Before the Rebellion for the destruction OF the
Union and the annihaticn OF tho United States the
South did have the Constitution SIS side for the
representation OF three-hfths OF large part Of the
inhabitants without their consent. But since
the war. which was fought for the preservation OF
the Union and the Constitution though the Con-
stitution as a result OF the sucCess Of the Union
army now by three amendments requires equal
rights to ell the people. yet not only are three
hfths but the whole Of that large body OF Ameri-
can citizens including TWO hundred thousand vet
Grams OF the victorious Union army deprived OF all
consent but have their entire number counted
against them.

PORT ARTHUR.

Ominous news comes from Port Arthur. If
the private letter reported from Shanghai
is true that fortress is in a desperate plight
and upon the verge Of conquest or surrender.
That the letter Is true we may well believe.
OF course, there have hitherto been many other
reports that the place was about to fall which
have proved untrue. But 1t Is obvious that
each succeeding one is likelier to be true than
its predecessor No fortress can hold ont for
ever against combined storm and famine. Sc
bastopol fell in time. and Port Arthur is hardly
Sebastopol For weeks the Japanese have been
raking the place with their artillery. and the
Russian fire in reply has been growing weaker
and weaker. The end must come at some
time. and it seems reasonable to suppose that
II is now close at hand.
Hope of raising the siege IS of course, quite
dead There never was any real hope Of that
being done by the Baltic feet and the Rus
SLAMS themselves must now realize the fact.
At one time there was some hope Of aid from
General Kuropatkin, though even that was
slight ever after the battle Of Nan-Shan. But
that hope. too. Is dead 1t has been killed,
either by the prowess Of OyamA or by the
laundering Of Alexen and Jilinsky. Kuropat-
kin has done his best But even the gods con-
tend In vain against stupidity-such as Alex
ieH's. a high type OF valor has been shown
by General Stoessel and his comrades in their
gallant defence Of the place. Those so inclined
may consider which is the more admirable. the
stubborn ValOr which holds out to the end and
dies In the last ditch or the discretion which
seeks terms when longer resistance Is seen 10 DO
vain. The general Judgment of the world will
be that the defenders OF Port Arthur have
played heroic part
The effect Of the fall Of the place upon the
general fortunes Of the war will not be marked

fall of the place for service against huropatkin.
But we assume they are much worn with long
and arduous campaigning, and will scarcely be
In condition to go north and tight again until
after a period OF rest and recuperation. In
time however. they will be under Oyama S
banners. The moral effect of the taking Of
Port Arthur will be considerable, though less
than It would have been at an earlier date.
Best Of all, perhaps. win be the cessation Of the
dreadful slaughter which has long been going
on around the place. How many lives have
there been lost we do not know; but II is not
at all improbable that they are as many as
those lost in all the bloody battles at the north.
