No Compromise.
Most persons will agree with Senator
Carter, of Montana, that those s-enn-lois
who demand the adontlon of a
resolution delhihiK the nature of Ameri
can inlet veniiou in Hie Philippines aie
fiiillty of an Impel tlnunce. Nor Is their
demand e.vuwd bv the itpoht;eHc ex
pl.tniillon that such a lesolutlon would
in no coiUliiBeucy mean anything in
P.aitlculai.
The lime has not come when the na
ture of our stay In the Philippine
im hi politico cm be intelligently de
fined. Theie is no need to declare that
w-i- intend to treat the native inhabit
ant of thoe Islands fairly. The man
who thinks theie is dlsplajs Ignorance
of Ameilian histoi and IntniMIng mi
pleiou of tin Ameilcan charueter. 'As
Senatot Cuter aftirin?. no political
paity could survive one senetal elec
tion on a plat form proposing' petfldy
or ttlshonoi In Hie new dependencies.
Th nujiniti of our people aie not
innobli'
inn for the very leason that we want
to tieat these downtrodden I'ilipinos
Inlil.v we should be slow ami sure
about making pioinWrs to them; we
should make certain where our duty
Iks and what It lequiies of us before
piibllslihiK our piocl itnatlons befoie
the censorious wot id. The asceitain
uient of the facts is, obviously the hist
step iii be taken ill dealing vv lth this
intiltate dilemma. Thee factt aie nut

an hipelaso Itself. Tin- mesldent has
nauifil a leputable i otnniission to

public. an well afford to await the

I'n the meantime, latillcation of ih

power to settle this piobleiu as we
s'lull eventualli- deem just and wise.
Sli'ill the treaty lie ratified or tejected?
This Is the lsue and Hie only issue for

There Is nothing: to occasion siitpilsi)
In the fact that "Old Vox" Uoinez is
discontented. Ik- Is not nn educated
man, as weie Garcia, Multl and
Maceu; he bus few civil aptitude and
he has by llattejy continued duilnfj
many years been led to assume nn ex
aRBerated levv of his own Impoilauee.
Moieover thu Inflimlties of old age are
overtaking him ,nd hh achlne bones
accompany an excitable temper. In
plainer winds, not unkindly meant, his
days of praciloal usefulness are nearly
ended: upon younger men must necei.
sarlly fall the buideti of Cuban recon
struction. Seeing1 these thing! does
not add to his tranquility hut not
withstanding all these peculiarities he
has, It li believed, too much practical
sensa born of expeilunco to get In the
way of American administration in
Cuba, His moods of petulance and
grumbling- aie unpleasant hut harm
less. In forming an estimate of this man
we must allow for attendant circum
stances, lie hits been a fanatic: life
has held but one Ideal for hlni the
Ideal of Cuban Independence. For this
he bus for neatly thirty years alter
nately plotted and fought, starved nnd
bean a fugitive. His lule us n guerilla
chleftnln has been despotic and, to
Ameilcan eyes, often ctttel. In the nt
compllHhinent of his purposes he has
spared nobody and nothing. Within
tho circle of his arbitrary authority
his word lias been sovereign law. Yet
dining all these years of turmoil, In
ccndiailsm anil slaughter which finally
reduced Cuba almost to a waste place
tlieto has been no successful challenge
of his peisonal honor or fidelity to the
Insurgent cause lie may have been
tiairow nnd bigoted and merciless but
he has been at till times earnest nnd
true. Amidst bribery and treachery and
deceit he kept it straight path with not
a spot on his Integrity of purpose. This
fact, like chuilty, covers a multitude
of sins.
Cuba In future, will need In her public
service a broader ehiss of men, but
for what Gome, did for them and for
the object lesson In fidelity which his
career supplies, the Intelligent In
habitants of Cuba are properly grateful.
Tin honor which has come to our
follow -lownsuiali, George M. Hallstoad,
through Ills appointment to tho eov
einor's staff as assistant eommKsary
frenera), Is worthily bestowed nnd will
be noted with pleasure by his numer
ous friends In thla ami In other cities.
Mr. lhillstead will bring to this posi
tion a degree of business training and
executive skill which will sttengthen
materially the military administration
of the Stone regime.
According to an Interview, General
Gobln evidently believes that there will
be mote waifate about the state capital
tills winter than in any locality that
the Pennsylvania troops will visit.
It is too bad that the medicine pro
scribed for General Kaan cannot also
be distributed amoqs the trallors in
congre-? who are maliciously flghting

All save the peace-loving statesmen
in eongics seem to realize that the

THE PHILIPPINE QUESTION,
Prom the New Ycrk Commeicl.il.
Some people are talking a gieat deal
nowadays about the ccr.senl of the gov
erned being necessary lo a government
of any kind by Amei leans, ilete in the
I'ldted States wo govern, or profess lo,
with Hie consent, of tlio nuioiity, oven
il the majority Is cumposed of but n sin
gle Individual. That is, it there are 1,
000,000 votes cast and oMMl ate found
to bo for Smith and his party, with llitli
oi t ot government, and lMV.tti for Jorcs
and his party and Hulr sort ol govern
mint. Smith .t Co. win and govern, and
make Just whut laws trejy please within
tho constitution which Jones & Co. have
to obey. In fact, lliej govern to their
hearts' content against the will of all nut
two less tlinn n majoilty of tho whole
people; nnd noboclj kb K. It does no
good If h does.
o
Now, If the PHIplnos wiie pftmilt-(l
to Hock olf by themselves, is It likely tli.it
tluir government would be mi more bv
Hih consent of the governed than if thev
Hinulned under tho American Hag? Cei
tulnly not, unless Kiwi Agulnaldo oi
Agonclllo reduced his subjects to unan
imity by cutting olf the heads of all wlu
dlltered from him. That would be the
only avoiiui) through which 1'toplan
unanimity of conent could be ic.tihid
In the Philippine. Now. having pricked
this lrldesctnt soap-bnbblt as to the im
rishteotisneti of government without the
consent of the governed, the next step Is
to Inauiie bow the government of tire
Philippines bv a c liqiio of native PUI
pinos would be llkelv to be better than a
fovernment of the Islands by the whole
enlltthtened Ameilcan people. In what
points could It be better'.' In more .n
lelllgence? In !es selfnhness? In less
natural depravity, mscullty and coiiup
t!on Aruei leans ale human mid make mis
takes accidentally tjulie finiuentlj. and
sometimes on piupoic. f!ut there Is oua
thing that Americans as a nation never
could do, and that Is knowingly oppress
anv people who di pended on them for
protection. Nor would they glvo thsir
wards any smaller rights before the iv.m
nor any fewer opportunities lo enjoy.
Ill c. liberty and the puisult of happiness
than the themselves enjoy. Death
would iiwio to that American politic il
piirty tluilnsr whose period In power any
wrongs weiti ever perpotrnted upon the
I'ilipinos.

A Brooklyn policeman, living on Lafayette Avenue, makes soma
Well-considered remarks on the habits of the force : " Their sleep is
irregular, their meals irregular, and their business is an irregularity
from beginning to end." lie says : " Is it any wonder that you find
many of them of irregular character and habits, brought on by a (lis
ordered stomach? I wish samples of Ripans Tabules could be placed
in the hands of every policeman in the country, if for no other reason
than the purifying effect upon their character and habits. Ripans
Tabules can never be known except by trial. I shall continue to take
one whenever necessary. I have found them to be unsurpassed by
anything. Policemen are subject to indigestion and dyspepsia perhaps
more than others. For them I consider Ripans Tabules a great blessing."
