FUTURE OF
PHILlPPIN ES

Republican Success Guarantees the
Welfare of the Island Peoples.
When the presidential election is over
and the status of the Philippines is
more certain, if the danger of tyranny
and chaos following our retirement or
the disturbance of peace by any prom
Use of independence has been Obviated,
millions of capital will flow to the is
lands to develop their great resources.
The Republicans have made no decla-
ration as to future independence, but
the Democrats have promised it. The
former left the question of the future
relation of the islands to our govern
ment to a time when it can be better
decided, refusing to listen to the the
Ories of the inexperienced and follow
ing the advice Of those who have on
the spot sought to solve the problem.
Having the responsibility of govern
ment the administration is content
with governing the islands well, teach
ing the natives by example the art of
government and permitting them to
participate in the conduct of their af-
fairs so far as they are capable. This
gives the conservatives a sense of Sc
curity and prevents the radicals from
being agitated by pledge of independ-
ence that cannot be near at hand. II
brings peace with its accompanying
good order.
We have only made the beginning
but it is highly creditable. Further
legislation is required to encourage
commerce and to carry out the plans OF
development. We seem to have begun
well, but we may have erred and
should, perhaps, have followed the
British policy. So far, however, there
is nothing to indicate that we have
erred or to warrant us in departing
from the ideal of the philippines fO
the FilipinOs," which guides our pres
ent work in the far Pacific.

CAVIS o" THE RACE ISSUE.

The issue has not been rehabilitated
by the Republican party. The Repub-

it into prominence again, when the
Democratic party of the southern states

When They Had Chance.
Editorial in the New York Tribune. Oct.
II, 1891
The Hon. HOke Smith, secretary of
the interior, has sent in his estimates
for the next fiscal year, ending June
80, 1895, wherein he makes it appear
that in his opinion an aggregate of
S176, ,779, ,134 % is needed for the sever
al branches of the public service un-
der his control. He seems somewhat
proud of the fact that this is a de-
crease from last year of So, 3,308, ,496.1S,
the total then being $180,087 ,630.44.
But he omits to call public attention
to the suggestive fact that he gets all
and more than all of his apparent saw
Ing out of the pension bureau. His es-
Inmates show a decrease for pensions
of $5,OOOOO0. Further than that, he
wants an increase of $1,OOOOO0 for ex-
amining surgeons, 100000 for clerk
hire and 100000 for expenses of in
vestigatiOn. This is total of 81 ,400,-
600 which he must have in order to
cut down the pensions to the extent of
S5,00000O, and the secretary proposes
10 make the old soldiers pay it all.

RoosereIt md the Farmer.

[FrOm the Orange Judd Farmer.l
Especially do the farmers of Ameri-
ca pin their faith to Theodore ROOse-
welt. He knows them and their wants.
He was the first president to cOmpre-
hensively grasp the problems Of for
estry, irrigation, good roads, rural free
delivery, etc He was instrumental in
putting into force laws and policies for
aiding agriculture in these and many
other respects.
lie appointed a commission of eX-
perts to review the land laws and to
outline such reforms as would best pro
mote the public interest in general and
also the welfare of the bona fide set
tier, stOckman, rancher and lumber
man, while putting stop to the plum
dering of the public domain. RoOse-
velt means that the public lands, wa
ters and forests shall be the heritage of
the people.
The federal irrigation policy has been
wisely championed and fathered by
Theodore Roosevelt. Without subject
ing east or south to further agrtcultur
al competition, this irrigation policy Is
creating thousands of happy and sell
sustaining homes in the previously ariC
west, thereby developing a large addl
ton to that best of all markets for ou
labor, capital and manufacturers - tn,
home market.
Still more wonderful, this national II
rigation policy is being carried on
without expense to taxpayers. Tn
money for it comes from the sale o
public lands-$27 100000 now availabl
and is paid back by the settlers upo
the land irrigated.

When squarely faced by the ques-
ton. DO YOU believe that cOlOred vot-
ers should be allowed to enjoy the vot-
ing privileges which the federal con-
stitutiOn guarantees them?" Judge
Parker shows signs of annoyance and
refuses to answer. Then he tries to get
away from the issue by saying, If
YOU have done me the honor to read
my letter of acceptance you will find
that that point has been covered"
Anybody who reads that letter of ac-
ceptance will find the point covered
precisely as Judge Parker covered it in
his address in Georgia on the four
teenth amendment. which led the New
York Evening Post to declare:
For him the great bulwark of the
suffrage. with the penalties laid down
for discrimination against any class in
it's exercise, simply did not exist If
wholly to avoid the burning question
of the day is to show yourself fit for
the presidency. then Judge Parker's
address should have sensibly advanced
| his candidacy"
Judge Parker's letter contains moth
ing that comes within reaching dis
| tance of being an unequivOcal deciara-
ton for the protection of the negrO's
constitutional rights He demands their
| legal rights for citizens in a paragraph
which is a bid to the naturalized
voters, having evident reference to
| their treatment in their native lands,
| and can never be thought of for mo-
ment as referring to the negro, though
the judge may perhaps attempt to find
cover under it. On the other hand, he
has described as admirable" a plat
| form which denOunces even the dis
cussiOn of plans to safeguard the ne
grOs constitutional rights. Now he
does not dare say he stands for them,
and no wonder German, the Maryland
| nullifer is here as his campaign di-
rector and money raiser. But in view
of this latest act of timidity with re-
spect to the negro and his evident will
ingness to see the constitution nulliied
in the south, we once more ask the
New York Evening Post if at the bot
tom of its heart it does not feel about
this trimmer as it felt last year at the
time of his Georgia speech, when il
said of him: Can a man named as
our next president agree to such 10
cal notification of national laws? Il
he can. ne is not fit to be presiden

An Easy Task.

In writing of the new railroad from
Sodaville to Tonopah, the Bonanza
states as follows:
The contracts call for the complpetion
of the road June 1st. This seems per.
haps q short time in which to build
sixty miles of line; but the work is
unusually light. There are no import.
ant structures. The topography along
the route is such that French drains
and box culverts are about the only
openings required. Nor are there any
large cuts or heavy fills. Consequently
it is quite within possibilities to com.
nual banquet and joll time last even
Mile after mile of the road can be
built on a two or three foot embank
ment. The grades and the curves will
be light. There is wagon road con
tiguous to the line of survey for its
whole length so that outfits can be dis
tributed along the route and material
quickly got to the front.
