The Philippine Friars.

The senttlement of the troublesome
question Of the friars' lands in the
Philippines gives to the United States
the title to nearly all Of the real prop
erty Of the religious orders In the
islands. In return, the United States
pays the friGrs seven and quarter mil
lion dollars. The work Of the church,
and, indeed, Of the religious associa-
tons, will go on as before, so far as the
spiritual and social side Of 1t is con-
cerned; but the orders cease to be land
lords. The government, on the other
hand, acquires an opportunity Of great
value. The possession Of 400, 900 acres
of the richest and most valuable land in
the islands gives the means to carry out
the plan of establishing class of small
landowners, secure in their possession
and devoted to the maintenance and de-
velopment of American principles

French Cattle for United States.

OabbAO AOA ~ hASOA SONSCos
Attention has often been called to the
Limousin cattle, there being no breed
known that is so well adapted for beef
as the hardy native Limousin stock.
They far outrank the Durham, or any
other breed, for this purpose. This
breed is particularly robust, easily nour-
ished and fattened, and has all the prime
characteristics for producing frst-qual-
ity beef. If these cattle were imported
into the United States and crossed with
the native stock they would improve the
quality and be great benefit to the
producer. There is registered herd
book, and all information can be easily
obtained.

WAGES AND THE TARIFF.
More Than All Else Protection Pro-
tects the Welfare of the Amer
lean Workingman.

The democratic platform denounces
publican party as "a robbery of the
many for the enrichment of the few"
We cannot keep this assertion before
the people and the wage earners too
often. 1t will be iteration and reitera-
.tion. Many eminent economists, with
free-trade leanings, of course, have de-
clared that the only thing which a
protective tariff protects is labor. The
democratic party, says the Wheeling
Intelligencer, has declared otherwise.
The London Ironmonger some years
ago declared strenuously that this Is
fact. 1t stated that labor was the
only thing which a protective tariff
really protected. 1t has been asserted
by many other statisticians that the
protective tariff is all that keeps the
wages of the American workingmen at
the high level which they have reached.
There are many people who would like
to see these wages reduced to the Eu-
pean level. They say 1t Is wholly un-
natural that the wage earners Of the
United States should receive wages so
much higher than are paid by the other
nations of the world. 1t is very likely
that this is what troubles a good many
free-traders of this country. They be-
lieve that we should get down to the
level of wages in Europe, and that the
only way to accomplish this is to get
down to free-trade basis. The franz
ers of the democratic platform of 1892
probably had this idea in mind when
they built the tariff plank in which
they declared:
1--WE denounce republican protection
as fraud and robbery of a great ma
jority of the American people for the
benefit of the few. We declare it to be
fundamental principle of the demo-
cratic party that the federal govern
ment has no constitutional power to
impose and collect tariff duties except
for the purpose of revenue only"
On the other hand, the republican
party has always maintained that a
protective tariff keeps up the wages of
the working people and protects the
manufacturer from the low wage sched-
ule of his European competitors. The
working men who have looked into
this subject are fully convinced that
the protective tariff protects their
wages There is no doubt about 1t.

A POINT FOR YOUNG MEN.
Do They Agree with Judge Parker
That Our Flag Should Come
Down in Philippinesp

The young men of the United States,
by tens of thousands, bravely volun-
teered to put down insurrection in the
Philippines. Our treaty with Spain
touching the great archipelago on the
far side of the Pacific was clinched by
the valor and sacrifices of armies COM
posed of young Americans Judge Par
ker has just said in letter that he Is
in favor of telling the hundreds OF
tribes in the Philippines at once that
they will eventually be given indepen-
6ence on the same basis as the Gu
bans. That is to say, argues the st.
Louis Globe-Democrat, we should now
assure the Filipinos that their flag will
go up and the United States flag come
down; that we retain only a naval
station by treaty; that the Filipinos
conduct their own independent govern
ment, imposing tariff against our
goods, and, doubtless, increasing 1t, as
Cuba has just done, and negotiating
national loans to be distributed among
Filipinos, also on the Cuban plan. Was
1t for this pulling down of the flag
that the noble arimes of young Ameri-
cans fought and hiked in the Philip
pines? Judge Parker's proposed sur
render of the islands has not yet been
discussed in this country. He has
pledged himself to act now without
any popular debate or congressional
consideration. His convention tele-
gram and his letter on the Philippines
show that he Is an extremely unsafe
man, erratic, premature and generally
dangerous in his egotistic movements.

THE general needs trained soldiers
| with which to win his victories.
No experienced general would rush on
to the battlefield with raw recruits. He
would carefully and patiently drill and
train them, he would harden their mus
cles and steel their nerves against the
roar of the cannon and the roll of mus
kerry. He would train them in marks
manship, and in every way prepare
them for the struggle. This Is pre-
cisely what Jesus, the great and vic
torious General, would do with you and
me. He knows we must fight. He is
anxious to lead us, but He wants to
train us for the conflict. Self must be
eliminated. The general who can bring
his army to act as a unit and with pre-
cision execute his well-matured plans
is assured of success. His personally
and leadership must predominant. Ev-
cry soldier must be a small bit Of
himself And so 1t Is In regard to the
relations of the soul to its General,
Christ Jesus. Self must be eliminated
and Christ control in every particular.
We must be unit with our Leader.
And further, we must be patient under
discipline. The drill may become irk-
some, but we must persist. Then faith
| in the Leader is essential. We must
look to Him for the victory and not to
ourselves. All, how many take their
eyes of Jesus just when victory ID
about to be grasped, and instead of
glorious victory we have miserable de-
feat. It is the loving, longing desire
OF God to give every one Of us the VIC
tory through Christ Jesus. and we may
experience the thrill of exultation
which comes to the victor II we will
let Jesus have His way with us. II we
will submit to His cleansing, purifying,
purging of the heart from secret and
hidden sins; II we will let Him train
us; II we will keep our eyes upon Him
and follow In faith and obedience His
leading-then shall we be able to say
with Paul: Thanks be unto God,
which giveth us the victory through
'our Lord Jesus Christ"

even while we are clinging to that
which can only bring defeat. We eager
ly go forward to the conflict confident
within the deepest recesses Of our heart
the wicked evidence of sin which will
cause us to flee before the enemy. We
cannot plead ignorance Of the presence
of such unholy thing in the heart and
life. Yes, we have covered it up as we
have gone into the presence of the Lord
or for the time being we have quite
forgotten that it is there. Like the
buried bone of the dog, 1t remains out
of sight and Is forgotten until some
day the dog chances to pass that way
again and the scent of the bone reaches
the dogs nostrils, and up it comes to
be fed upon again and then buried for
future day. All, how much the soul
thinks it is hiding from its Lord. 1t
deceives itself, and 1t thinks 1t is with
equal skill deceiving the Searcher Of
the hidden purposes and intents of the
heart. This, then, Is one of the rea-
sons why the soul meets defeat. 1t is
not free from the unholy thing. 1t has
not submitted to the searchlight Of
Gods presence, and cast out the thing
which is displeasing to Him. And for
this reason there is present in the life

moment manifests itself and brings de-

ages was that which took place In the
garden at the dawn of human history.
The supreme victory was that which
was won by the Son Of God when He
came into the world, and endured all
the temptations and trials to which
man is subject and yet without sin.
His first victory was a personal one
over sin. His second victory was the
victory over death. His first victory
prepared Him to become the worlds
Saviour, and brought Him to that Sec
ond battlefield where the deliverance Of
the human race was wrought as He
went upon the cross and became sin for
us. We sing of Jesus as the Great De-
liverer, as the Mighty Conqueror, as
the Victorious King. And such He Is.
He went through all the conflict Of life,
He experienced every struggle which
RACES upon the battlefield of the soul,
and He was always victorious. He
never knew defeat.
. UT such cannot be said of any other
u man who has ever lived. The bat
ties rage within the human heart and
defeat Is constantly written upon its
banners. Struggle ever so bravely, win
ever so many partial victories, and
still defeat is known, and sin and Its
consequences are present. But 1t need
not be so IL the soul relies upon the
Almighty Conqueror, Christ Jesus. Our
text suggests the certain pathway to
sure victory-"Through our Lord Je-
sus Christ" Thanks be unto God"
Paul exclaims, who giveth US the vic
tory through our Lord Jesus Christ"
Victory through Christ. Man through
out the centuries since his first defeat
has been seeking the secret OF victory;
and he has found that the only victory
which he himself can win Is transitory
and incomplete. But victory may be
won through Christ. Victory through
our own efforts, no. But victory
through Christ always. What
glad message to the human heart Is
this. Who Is there who has struggled
for victory over the flesh and the
worlds allurements, and suffered re-
peated and frequent defeat, who is not
glad to hear that there is way of VIC
tory? Who is there who has not felt at
times as though it was hopeless and
useless struggle? Who has not felt
like making unconditional surrender
to all the selfish and evil desires in his
nature? Who has not felt like crying
out with Paul: "Oh, wretched man
that | am, who shall deliver me from
the body of this death?"

There are 157,255 widows on the roll

more to the 157 80 widows who are now
on the rolls at So per month.
In addition to these already on the rolls,
there are somewhere between $4,000 and
225,0O0 veterans who are eligible or soon

CIVIL SERVICE EMPLOYEES.

1t must not be thought that all or any
considerable number of the clerks and
other employees of the Government in
Washington are of the Eighty, selfish
kind, who have been making such poth.
er over the additional half hour. The
racket about losing opportunities for educa.
ton, social enjoyments, and baseball
games comes almost wholly from a light
headed lot Of recent entries into the sery;
eminent employ was to get the biggest
salary for the least work. The Depart
ments in Washington are filled with con.
seientious, Jealous, honorable men and
women, thousands of whom have grown
gray in the service, and who are as faith
full as any set of men or women in the
world. There is a strong question whether
the Civil Service reform has brought IN
anything like as good an element as thai
which was in when Civil Service reform
was inaugurated. The men and women
who are doing the real work of the Gov
eminent are as devoted to the proper dis
charge of their duties and as unsparing oil
their time and convenience id the faithful
transaction of business as it ID. possible
for men and women to be. No praise car
be too high for the way in which large
portion Of its employees serve the Gov
eminent. There is. as there always /,

are making all the trouble, and it i.
against this element that the structure,
