"We deplore the sanguinary war hi the Philippines and demand for the Filipinos what our fallicm demanded and won for this country. i government deriving lis Juu poweih I'tnm t'li" coiiM'iit of tho go erned". ' l.aeha wanna Denmeratle l'lat f oi in. RlOHTFc-I.TV (indt'rstond, the demand here expressed Is the demand of the whole American people, without distinction as to pnrtv. l)ut Inasmuch ns the Democrats hive seen lit to make of It paily Nsue wf may he pnv doncd for considering tlu proposition with some rare In the hope of maklnfr lt limitations clear. Oovernment. according to the Ameri can Idea, derives Its nuthoilty solely from seeming, vear after year, tho greatest good to tho greatest number. It tests on the r onsc-nt of the governed only ho far as that consent Is nn Intel ligent consent, inspired by recognition of the greater good and of the means necessary to obtain It. If .i time of j lot or rebellion we do not suspend government because of the dissent of the governed; ve mark out brond linos of po'icy, quell force by force, and when law and order aio lestored we gain consent ntten from those who, under Ftress of excitement, were loud est In dissent. The rebellion of Agulnaldo dees not! begin to compare, in point of mag nitude, ability of Its promoters, civi lization of lt constituents or high de velopment of Its nubile Institutions, with tho rebellion of .Teffetvor. Davis and his colleague founders of t'" Southern Cjnfedeuicy. Here was an Instance In which the eunsent of tn..' governed was almost wholly absent i from the government (-ought to b maintained over the seceding states by the administration of Abxaham Lin coln. And yet, where theic was most violent and determined dl?cnt. not only throughout the war period of 1S01 ft't but also throughout the reconstruc tion peilod and gtaduaily in lessenirg degree until very recently tlvre Is today, among tho gieat majoilty of tho Inhabitants of that once rebellious ter l Itury. not only consent but devout gratitude for secession's failure and a lorvent participation In American patriotism not surpassed In any other pait or section of tho Ameilean Union. There must lie a chance fee the bert Intrllirence of tho governed to lurlgo falrl.N by ieulte whether to conen: or ill-sent. As Senator Lindsay t,:ld In his no table speech at Buffalo a Speech that covered thoroughly every phase of the "consent of the governed" issuegood po eminent Induces consent. For four hundred years the Filipinos have been kept in the dirk as to whit good gov ernment Is or how It Is ndtninlstei'd. They not only lack tho experience and prnctlc.il knowledge necessary to ht up a good government by themselves but thev nie not yet In condition to piss competent judgment upon the methods of soernroent which iro be ing Instituted among tb-ni by t'V military power of the United States. As well say tint the unschooled infant Is prepared to enter Into the flereo bat tle of matured life ns to claim hat the Filipinos are ready for nn Indepen- dent national existence en ternu of equality with the iveogntei d groat powvrs. Before that time can come, if it ever shall, there lies an indefinite period en patient and dlfllcult prep aration under American guardianship and tutorship and ho is humanity's worst friend who would rob the or phaned of Indispensable protection. The hanging of a few antl-iinperlal-1st traitors In this country might prove a good object lesson for the Filipinos. An Honorable Sportsman. Si IR THOMAS LIPTON. who was ftom the start a prime favoiito, improves on acquain tance. Interviewed after Tuesday's attempted taco he raid, in marked contrast to Dunraven. "Hud I llnliihed fecconel I would have had nothing to complain of In regard to the conduct of tho race. ' Everything was conducted In a gei.tlemanly and sport:. manlike manner. There never was tn all tho world, not even In Encland, us clear a courso ns wo had today, and I want to add, from tho bottom of my heart, that It rellccts tho Krcutcst pohslblo credit upon tho authorities who had In c'urgo the task of keeping It clear. Throughout the eutli'o contest tho lino was marked on cither slda of It as clearly as It one had tuken n pen and drawn it upon a plcco of paper. Once, when the Shamrock was pretty well behind, nnd It looked as It sho might loso this rave. I found myself thinking that If It did turn out that woy I could at least have tho satisfaction of knowing that wu had been neoorded as fair ii chnnce as was ever tiven any one In tho world. "I nm proud of tho SBamrock's condi tion and crew. They got everything oiil of her possible. The Columbia whs also well handled. The whole thing was the prettiest oleco of ttork ever seen In American waters, or nny other, and I nm proud of tho share my boat had In It. "I also want to say that rren the very first 1 havo had tho fairest posslblo treat ment from the members of tho Now York Yacht club. They have nctcd tho pan of gentlemen rind sportsmen nil nround. So havo the men who handled tho excur sion boats and other pleasure craft which lined the course today, and tho marvel of It Is how In tho world they manaced to handlo their boats as well as they did.'- "Do yon think you will win tho cup?" was asked. "I havo never said that I will win It. nor do 1 say so pow. I may think so. If I did not what would I bo sailing nbout Sandy Hook for?" Talk like this will go a great way to rivet tho sentimental Anglo-American nlllfinc. The four Democratic candidates for congress In BeikB county havo signed nn ngreemont not to furnish nor pay others to furnish nny fro drlnl:;t dur ing the progress of their cinipulgn. It Is estimnted that this agreement. If nd hcred to In Rood faith, will reprwent a fuvlng for pnch candidate of from $6,000 to $10,OOC. In uddltlon to the rain that It will represent to public decency. Similar agreements are needed elsewhere. Milestones in floral Progress. DO NOT much blame the Nebraska Democrats VV who have crmed them selves with horsewhli arid stalled on tho trail of a one-horse editor In that state who recently print ed a libelous and wantonly 'ibuslve personal attacl. on Wllllnm Jennings Bryan. The political opinions and character of .Mr. Bryan are legitimate topics for public discussion and crit icism, nnd he has no ri,ht to complain If both are Ivmdleil without gloves; for that Is one of the penalties of prom inence the ilsk of which ho knowingly accepts when he nt'sumes the functions of a political leader. Hut wq must do him the fairness to recognize thnt In all his own discus sions of political subjects he has ob served with gentlemanly precision the proprieties of public donate and lias shown to his opponents personal courtesy and fair play. And we have no sympathy with the notion that in order to head him off It Is necessary I to fall below hl level of depot tment He U sufllcletnly vulnerable politically to give ample scope for successful o.on tioversy; nnd the erratic individual!! who now and then descend to "ituper ation without provocation represent nothlnsr more than their own bad breeding. Tho American peopli hove some I things yet to learn on tho score of de corum In tho conduct of their political contests; hut they have progressed very far since the scandalous tactlcJ of 1SS0 and 1SSI. Three years ago the battle was notably clean and there Is satisfaction In tho outlook that next yeni. with McKlnley nnd Ilryan again In the lead, It vlll again be a war of Ideas rather than a confrontation of mud-slliijrrs aimed with all tho Imple ments of systemat'c nnd unrelenting defamation. There are rare times when, to accomplish n public benefit, It Is neces-ary to embalm a blackguard In his own nvdlciue; but upon tho whole the tone of political controversy Is rapidly gaining !n decency and tho spontaneous protects which swiftly follow a flagrant breach of decorum are milestones In public sentiment's moral progress. General Gulllfct, France's Intrenld minister of war, has just taken another step forward toward France's redemp tion. Heretofore all promotions In tho French army have been determined by the council of generals, whose rotten ness was made notorious during the Dreyfus trill. Hereafter they will be made by the minister of war. The chang? Is revolutionary and if success ful will mean tho future unquestioned supremacy In Trance of the civil oven the military Influence. The ieopie who have recently been shouting "May the best boat win," were, of course, prompted by tho un derstanding that the-Columbla was the best boat. COMPLIMENTARY. From the Philadelphia Inquirer. If a book wero opened for wagers on tho winner ot tho next GubernutoiUl .-weeps-takes in Per nsylvatila, it would bo safo to picdict that .Congiessman Will lam Council, of Lackawanna, would loom up ns a prime favoiito among thosa well Informed on public uffalrs. Repre sentative Connell, during the last few cars, has been a prominent figure In Re nubilcan politick In thlb commonwealth. II j was a formlduMo cnmlldntn for unv. I ernor when Colonel Stone carried off tho prize, wiyi Ccnnell swinging in bib feu en for him ut the llnith. Since then ho has co-operated with the stalwarts, and has made many now and Imlucntln! friends. He Is proud of the fact thut he worked as a boy in tho coal mines. He was after- j ward employed ns a clerk, then as super Intenilc-nt of the Wycmlnif Valley nnd Susquehanna Coal company, nnd finally ho Kcrurid full control of all this valua property. Ho Is financially Interested In many manufacturing and financial con cerns In Scranton and vicinity and con trols tho Scranton Tribune. He Is ag gressive, public spirited and liberal, and tho Impress of his personality may b found upon many of the most successful Institutions In Northeastern Pennsylva nia. Pluck, perseverance nnd ambitious effort have charcterlzed Ids life's work. TOLD BY THE STARS. Daily Horoscope Drawn by Ajacchus, The Tribune Astrologer.

In Japan a recent edict of the gov ernment prohibits religious teaching In the primary schools This ls a ijreat blow to the Christian work. In other respects the prospects are most en i cournning. In central Clilna more than a million people weie left destitute nnd at the stations wnere the govern ment distributes rice gruel once n day. the people trample each other to death in their mad endeavor to obtain food. The work In Foo Chow Is Increasing In spite ot the narrow means allowed.
