A Pusillanimous Proposal

Representative William A. Jones,
the veteran Virginia congressman who
is chairman of the House Committee
on Insular Affairs. frankly throws
aside the false pretenses Of his fell
low-partisans and confesses that he
wishes to be rid of the Philippines be-
fore some power takes them away
from US or we have to spend several
million dollars for their defense. Per
haps no such parsimonius and pusil-
luminous proposal was ever before re-
ported by a majority of a committee
in a representative assembly Of a
mighty nation. Certainly not in the
richest nation in the world, one that
from its youth up has never failed to
assert and defend its rights against
all comers.
The party accidentally in power
through temporary division Of the
great body of political thought on
other questions, seems bent on carry
ing out the policy it made the para
mount issue of the campaign Of 1900
and against which the people gave a
plurality of S49,79O. But it is doing
it on new grounds. There is no af-
fection for "the little brown brothers"
There are no tears for Aguinaldo, now
a harmless and inconspicuous amigo,
but then another Washington, es-
teemed almost as highly as Villa was
by President Wilson a year ago. The
Declaration of independence is not
invoked. It is not asserted that we
have exploited" the Philippines. The
world agrees that we have done moro
for the Philippines than any other
nation ever did for a dependency in
like time. The senate has voted and

Slippery Denver Post

The Denver Post through its spec
ial pet, Volney Hoggatt, is getting
ready TO spring one of its customary
rotten deals on its own supporters.
They have abandoned their original
herd law, and are preparing a new
one which they will soon circulate for
signers to initiate. The outfit could
not play straight with anybody, and
arc evidently preparing a hold-up on
someone. If the Post wants it, it is
pretty safe for all honest people %
be against it. Look out for their
new bill when they spring it, there
will be plenty Of jokers in it.

Is the Public Right?

Probably no better index Of the
public opinion of our president could
be found than the now general belief
that our troops are to be recalled from
Mexico without capturing Villa. There
has never been a president in the his
tory Of the country before that the
people would have believed such cow
ardice of, but they have the feeling
that a week or so at a time is as long
as Wilson can remain of one mind.
Therefore they are expecting every
morning to read of the recall Of the
troops, and most citizens open their
morning paper with fear and tremb-
ling that we may be made a worse
laughing stock for the world at large
than we already are.
The Lamar register., 1916-04-12

the house is to be asked to vote for
plain, cowardly scuttle. The flag is
to be lowered through fear and as
stroke of economy. Our treaty
pledges are to be repudiated. We are
not to maintain a protectorate, for
that would be as expensive as pos
session and infinitely more trouble
some, for we should have to be re-
sponsible for the Filipinos without any
control over their acts.
If we are to turn the Philippines
over to anarchy or to be gobbed up
by some other power, why wait two
or four years? What miracle Of
preparation can be worked in that
period? Is there no danger in de-
lay? Can our enemies restrain their
impatience that long? Why not
throw the Philippines to the wolves
and make good our escape without
losing anything except the islands and
our self-respect.-G -Globe-Democrat.

STRIPED PARASOL

Traps.
is TO HAVE wELL-BENT RIBS
BY MELLIFIcIA-May %.


No wise mother with goodly
sized family OF daughters would think
OF such a thing as her home in the
plan OF one big, stately drawing-room,
Instead she would fill the house with
as many little hooks and reeesses as a
gulf coast bay has bayous and la
goons.
There was another trap, quite
passed now but it did its work in its
day, and many a grandmother will
testify she gets economically remi-
1srscent and tells you how your grand
father proposed TO her in the sum
mer house" Read any old novel and
you'll learn that the little latticed
kiosk in the side yard was where
Lord Roland asked Angelica, the gov
erness, to marry him and become a
marchloness at the very least,
OF late years the iron table on the
lawn with a big gaily striped para
sol over il, dipping sided parasoi
with well-bent ribs, has proved a
love-trap with possibilities never even
dreamed Of the little latticed srbor
Every country club putting them up
begins each season with an entirely
new list Of young married members
When the question Of garden equip
ment came up this year al the Coun-
try club, the committee on furnish
ings, Mrs. George Bernhard Prinz,
Mrs. Robert Howe nnd Mrs w J..
Foye, decided upon the parasols. Put
them in" said one OF the matrons,
"and I'll promise you a new engage
ment every week
Marques are all very comfortable,
but they are like the drawing room
filled with a stately company Of spin
sters and bachelors discussing topics
Of general and current interest, with
interludes Of small talk
"But-two by TWO, under the
striped parasols--if the engagements
are not announced all summer long
at the Country club this season, there
will be something remiss with the
