BATTLE WITH MoROS,

The battle with Moros on the island
Of Jolo, as reported IN the dispatches,
Will, OF course, be used by some as
an argument IN favor of the selling
out of the entire archipelago, 1t will
be said that the FUipinos do not want
the Americans on the islands, and that
II Is un-Amerlcan TO force ourselves
upon them.
The trouble with this argument is,
however that It ignores the certain
results that would follow such a policy.
Even supposins ic to be true that the
Filipinos object to American govern
ment. how would our retreat from the
islands better the conditions? Sup
pose We We're 10 sell out TO Japan. the
japanese would have 10 force them
selves and their government upon tho
land Of Formosn. Would that be pre-
ferable? II is absolutely certain that
we would not obtain the consent OF
the Filiplnos TO sell them to Japan.
And. II We were simply to east them
adrift how long would 1t take for some
other power TO force itself upon them?
And that would certainly not be a
gain.
1t IS not true, however, that the ma
jorlty Of the civilized Fillplnos are
against .he now existing government.
The wild. lawless element Is against
every form Of government, and II is a
blessing that this Is stamped out.

their strongholds. aud TO scatter them.

THE FRENCH SITUATION.

The French President seems 10 en-
counter more difficulties than he had
anticipated in finding a suitable per-
son willing to take the responsibility
OF the French premiership at the
present time. one rraSon for this Is,
probably 2 very widespread impress
sion that Germany is looking for trou-
lie with France. and is making the
Moroccan question an excuse for the
quarrel That Is. perhaps, also the
secret reason why Rouyer jumped
down from his tabouret with 50 much
agility No one can accept with light
heart the responsibility for conflict
that might involve the entire Europe.
II would be especially risky at this
time for the French government 10
assume defiant attitude, because the
people arc torn by discussions on ac-
count Of the ecclesiastical situation. II
IL clear that the dissatisfaction has
penetrated to the deeper strata OF the
French people, from whom the gov
eminent derives It's power, How can
a foreign foe be met by a disunited
people? That IS the grave question.
What can the government do, until the
nation is again united, and the wounds
inflicted by prosecutors are healed? At
present France is weak. notwithstand-
ing it's preparations for war It Is
weak because dlsunited
Germany scored a great diplomatic
triumph when NJ, Delcasse was forced
TO resign about half a year ago. His
policy was firm, and even aggressive
Germany has obtained a new advant-
age In the present situation brought
about by the ruthless raids upon
French churches and the overthrow of
the ministry what use the German
diplomats viii make Of this advant-
age, remains 10 be seen. We can
hardly believe. though, that Germany
Is spelling for another fray. Her am
bition no doubt, is 10 induce Holland,
Belgium, Switzerland. and, perhaps
Austria tn Join the German Bund, and
thus make Germany the greatest of the
world powers. But we believe the at
tempt will be made rather by peace
full means than by wars. The German
Emperor has, so far, always been for
peace, Notwithstanding his, at times,
startling uttorances.

Senator Foraker providing that the
people Of Arizona and New Mexico
should be permitted to vote separately
on the proposition for joint statehood
This was adopted by a vote Of AZ to ".
Then senator Dubois offered an amend
ment incorporating In the Constitution
OF the Joint state the Idaho test-oath,
designed to exclude all "Mormons'
from voting or holding Office. This was
agreed TO- But Senator Burrows pre-
scented another amendment excluding
Arizona and New Mexico from the bill,
and leaving only Joint statehood for
Oklahoma and Indian Territory This
failed by a vote of S5 TO IS. All that
was done IN committee OF the whole.
But when the matter was reported TO

proposition TO strike out Arizona and
New Mexico from the bill, and his
amendment received vote Of 81 ayes
To 81 nays, and so joint statehood for
those two Territories was thrown out.
the Dubois test-oath proposal included.
In committee Of the whole, Senator
Sutherland voted for and Senator Smoot
against the Foraker amendment. But
in the open Senate both voted against
the Burrows amendment. We mention
this because Of an attempt on the part
of a local contemporary TO place one
OF those Senators IN a false light In re-
lation 20 this matter. The facts are as
We have stated, and they show that
Senator SmoQt was DESTROYS OF state
hood for Arizona and New Mexico, even
II one State for the twain was all that
could be obtained, And both the Titan
Senators voted against the elimination
OF those Territories from the statehood
bill.
II Is understood that the President
was strongly In favor Of joint statehood,
thinking With many other people that
the admission of new states with sparse
population. giving them equal represen-
tatlon Ia the Senate with the great
States OF the Union was not wise or
advisable. There are strong differences
OF opinion on that point however, and
there will be. no doubt, until there are
no Territories left. but all common
wealths under the flag will be States In
the Federal Union.
