In an address before the BrOOkly

In an address before the Brooklyn
Institute of Arts and Sciences Will
liam H. Taft scored the Wilson ad-
ministration for it's Philippine
policy. Mr.. Taft said that the great
mass of the Filipinos-the unedu-
Gated c]ass-was not ready for self
government and would not. in all
probability, be ready for another gen.
Grafton; hence, the proposition of
the democratic administration to
turn the islands over to these people
would constitute grave error from
which could emanate nothing but
disastrous results. Mr.. Taft is right
he sums up the situation in a
truly logical manner. .

In another column there appears
a few extracts from Rex Beach's
new novel, "The Iron Trail" It
is no wonder the Alaskans are dis
gusted with the dog-in- the-manger
policy of the interior department..
If there is any department of the
United States government that
needs complete overhauling and a
thorough cleaning out it is the de-
partment of the interior. It seems
to be the settled policy Of that de-
partment to prevent or retard the
settlement and development of the
west. Minnesota fares as badly in
the adjustment of it's swamp land
grant as Alaska has with it's coal
fields

A Minneapolis man who never tires
of singing the praises of the Mile
Laos lake region writes: ''Have
just wagered a suit of clothes that
the first continuous one hundred
mile stretch of good roads that will
be constructed north of the Twin
Cities will be the one hundred miles
of road between Minneapolis and
Mile Laos lake. Is it safe bet?''
We think it is. The road in uues-
tion is fairly good most of the way
now-the worst part of it is in the
vicinity of the city limits of Mime
apolis. There is, no reason why with
in the next two years there should
not be a turnpiked gravel or rock
surfaced road between the queen of
Minnesota lakes and the Twin Cities.
1T will not be the Unions fault if
our friend does not win his bet.

At the 145th anniversary of the
New York chamber of commerce,
last Thursday evening, Joseph H.
Choate, former ambassador to Great
Britain, uttered this sentiment
which will find an echo in every
loyal American heart: II appeal to
the heart and the head of every
gentleman present in the chamber,
in this trying Mexican situation
there is but one duty for all of US,
and that is to stand by the presi-
dent of the United States.''

After all the care which has been
taken in endeavoring to raise the
heir apparent to the throne Of
Russia, thfAS s. }a9'm,pered son of royalty
is now declared to be suffering from
tuberculosis of the bones and cannot
live more than six months. Had he
been permitted to trough it, with
the boys of the neighborhood instead
of being confined within the high
walls of the palace garden and not
permitted to "overexert' himself,
the little fellow would now probably
be as healthy as the children Of the
peasants.

Just as the Union predicted,
Messrs. King and Mackenzie, presi-
dent and secretary of the Northern
Minnesota Development association,
have furnished the interior depart
ment with a pretext for refusing to
patent swamp lands to the state.
The state will eventually get the
lands, but it may be ten or a score of
years hence. We fail to see how the
delay is going to benefit northern
Minnesota.

Mike Crimes Tribute to Christianity

Mike Crimes Tribute to Christianity.
In cvilizing the Filipinos, we must
not neglect giving them christian
religion. Christian religion is an
activity that has been redeeming
the. world for 1900 years, and has
now reached the splendid point
where the greater part of two
thirds of the christians in this,
country say that the other one third
is the greatest existent evil and "a
hideous menace to all religion and
humanity, and the said one-third
says that most of the evils FROM
which humanity suffers come from
the sinfully misguided conduct in
the sight of God of the aforesaid two
thirds. 1t will surely puzzle those
poor Filippinos to get such a thing
into their noodles, but once having
grasped it, they will be able, when
the time comes and their blood is
up, to slash, cash, chops outrage,
burn, torture and destroy Moham-
medans over there, just as the Bal
kan christians have done with the
Turks and one another, in the last
unpleasantness in Europe. LIE Sueur
