AlcCormlck'.'i arguments On the contraiy the population compichended within the juilsdletlon of the contem plated new ludluul dlstilet, ns well as the ciiuit business, has e:y mateilally int'i eased. Admit al Dewey has mailo another leqtie.st thtt tho Chine.so sailors who hi-ivetl on his e.ssels tit the battle of Al.tnll.i be allowed to land In the Unit ed .States. This privilege, which is given to people of all other nation i, seems hut small tetompense for the hciolsm of the yellow seamen. Excessive Caution. PPOSlTiON is threatened In i llio aennte to the ratification r,,if the tteaty tor voluntary . intqi national arbitration Higmi'd at The llaguo peac.3 confeivnc. by tho commission repiesentlng tho United States. Its basis Is the claim w 0 ihat Hie tteaty In a genoial way eat rles the United States beyond Its posi tion of traditional isolation and em oils It among the powcts which are large ly instrumental In shaping tho policies and destinies of the world. While It cannot be alleged of this treaty, as wjb successfully asserted of the Ol-j'tey-Pauncefote treaty of arbitration between the United States and Oieat Hiitaln, that it Involves specifically an "entangling alliance," yet the opinion Is t.ald to prevail among ecttuln sena tots that tho tendency of the treaty m to Intioduce this nation unnecessarily Into tho confiding currents of Euro pean polltU'3 and on this ground tliev Intend to vo'te negatively on the ques tion of ratification. Accepting this argument as having been offered In good faith, what is thero In It? The conventions signed by the American peace commissioners nt The Hague Imposed no compulsion upon the United States as to either the acceptance of arbitration, or con bMit to an International commission ol fliifulryjwhen a difference arises, or the acceptance of pioffored media tion beforo or during a war. In other words, the ratification of these three conventions would leavo our country In every material respect just as free nnd Independent tind sovereign af It Is today: the only difference would be that tho moral Influence of the United States would be committed In writing, ns It already Is In history nnd tradi tion, to the furtherance of pacific as opposed to violent measures of adjust ing the differences between nations lief ore our commissioner would sign the convention legnrdlng friendly ofll ces in the attempt to compose Interna tional differences they distinctly nndl In writing nfllmud that nothing In their slgnatuie vns to be construed nH Indicating a departure from tho tradi tional American position of keeping aloof from tho Internal nffalis of Uu ropo and of expecting the nations of Europe to keep aloof from strictly American nffalis. This proviso was drawn In language not open to misin terpretation, and It constitutes nn Im pregnable answer to tho objections which these over-cautious senators arc raising. One fact has now to be accepted as beyond iccall and thetefoie no longer open 'to serious aigument; that Is that the United States has already expand ed. Giowth which could not have been stopped and should not be lamented has made It one of tho determinative factois In the world's affalts. The practical question now Is not whether Ibis should have been, but along what lines of pilnciplo and policy our new ly acquit' 1 influence is to be wieldec!. The btst thought and conscience of the time .tppiove the principles and the politics foimul.tted at The Hnguc. It would not look well for the United States to lag behind the less enlight ened nations In Its suppoit of those enlliihtoned alms. If many of the ( titles of the admin islt.ition le.tlly believed that their ef forts would have the effect of toweling tho American liag in the Philippines, they would cease at onto. Santa Claus. "Hi: PUIti.'.NXIAL question concerning the morality of teaching the young to be lieve In Santa Claus has again been lnlsed. Two or tlneo min ister in dlffetent cities have lately gone on lecoril with their opposition to the pleasing legend which nnnually In lugs joyous expectation Into mil lions of happy homes. It seems to us that thero Is nn In consistency somewheie. Christ taught In p.n aides. He mnny times used fic tion to cmph.tize fact. That is to say, He adapted the leadiest means of cat rylng to the Intelligence of His dis ciples and followers the grand truths which it was His mission on eattli to inculcate. The use of the parable wrought no harm. It was a legitimate and appropriate foim of rhetoric, which in vatying manner has been employed by all the gteat teachers that man kind has known. The legend of Santa Claus belongs to this category. It appeals better than any othei method to tho Imag Inatlqns of the joung and surely m one can claim that It woiks the slight est haim. Sad, indeed, would be tho day which extinguished this fruitful souice of childish pleasure. Those who nro endeavoilng to per suade Alark Hnnna to name a candi date for vice-president are not meet ing with success. Senator Hanna claims to have anxieties of his own. Theie Is no doubt, however, that Un cle Alaik's sanction would give almost any candidate a boom in the way of raising a wall of despair In the Demo. ctatic press. Senator Hoar's Platform. ACCOHDI Hoar, respect CCOHDING TO Senator the ablest and most ted opponent of the admlnlsti atlon's Philippine policy, the most Impoitant and piess Ing obligations of this republic, as de fined In his recently offered resolu tlon, are: 1. To solve the cllfflcult problem pre sented by the presence of different races on our own soil with equal con stitutional rights. To make the negro safe In his home, secuie In his vole, tqual In his opportunity for education and employment, nnd to bring tho In dian to n civilization and cultute In accotd.ince with his need and capacltj ; 2. To enable gieat cities to govern themselves In fieedom, in honor an I In purity. u. To make the ballot box as puo as a saciamental vessel, and the elec tion tetuins as peifectly In accord with the law nnd tho truth as the judgment of the Supjeme couit; 1. To banish Ulltci'aey and Ignoiance fiom the land; 5. To hecuto for every workman and for every wot king woman, wages enough to suppoit a life of comfoit nnd an old ago of lelsuie and quiet, as befits those who have an equal abate In a self-governing state; .C. To grow nnd expand, over thi continent, nnd over the Islands of the sen. Just so fabt, and no faster, as wo can bring into equality nnd self-government, under our constitution, peo ples and taces who will shate these Ideals and help to make them reali ties; 7. To set a peaceful example of free dom which mankind will be glad to follow, but never to force even free dom upon unwilling nations at the point of the bayonet or at the cannon's mouth; 8. To abstain from Interfering with tho freedom and Just tights of olher nations or peoples, and to remember that the liberty to do right necessarily Involves tho liberty to do vviong; and that the American peoplo have not right to take away from any other peoplo tho birthright of freedom be cause of n fear that they will do wrong with it. Concerning the first five of these propositions there Is not even tho ap pearance of a difference of opinion among tho great body of the American people. As to the sixth proposition, all the difference which seems to exist Is duo to a misapprehension of facts and purposes. With reference to tho sev enth, no one Is proposing to forco free dom on any nation at the cannon's mouth, but In tho Interest of the larg er welfare of a gieat majority of the native inhabitants of tho Philippine Islands and, as tho Philippine com- mission tells us, nt their eager desire and solicitation, the government of the United States, by means of Its mill taty strength, Is compelling nn armed minority to desist from a mischievous usutpatlon of Authority which has practiced an odlus tyranny upon un nrmr'd fellow Inhabitants whom Its self-constituted dictatorial power has Intimidated nnd terrorized. Coming, then, to the last of Senato Hoar's propositions, we have simply to consider whether. In the light of practical common setise, taking duo ac count of the conditions as they exist, there Is any better practicable way to deal with the problem confronting us In the Philippine archipelago than that In which that problem Is being dealt with. Until tho senator from Massa chusetts can show that the conditions ns olllclnlly tcportcd bysuch men as President Schuiman, Professor Wor cester, ex-AIInlster Denby nnd Admiral Dewey are not the conditions actually existing In the Philippines; unMl he can establish to tho satisfaction of the mind and conscience of the natloi that there has been a misconception of facts prejudicial to Agulnaldo and the agencies whom Agulnaldo reptesents, mere theorizing from assumed premises will not avail to modify policies and measures now In process of execution. Of Senator Hoar's sincerity and moral courage In supporting convictions dif ferent from those held by a majority of his countrymen there Is no question; but to be effective this courageous sin cerity must sustain Itself by facts in evidence. Where are those facts? Tho man arrested In Philadelphia on the chnrge of slashing women with a knife wept when arraigned nnd said that he must have 'been drunk at the time of committing the t times. This will probably not have much effect as an excuse In the case of the "ripper." Owing to tho reluctance of tho Penn sylvania legislature to pass laws In flicting proper punishment, a man may get drunk and beat his wife and cscnpe serious consequences; but when ho s-tarts out with a knife, Indis criminately slashing the women he meets on the street, he Is liable to en counter trouble. Boston some tlmo ago voted over whelmingly for nn eight-hour work ing schedule for city employes. The taxpayers now realize to their sorrow that this act of Indulgence will cost the city homethlng like a quarter of a million dollars annually, and! a reac tion has set In. It pays to count the cost. People who are throwing themselves Into hysterics of Joy over the disasters that have overtaken British troops in South Africa, will do well to have all their fun now. The future mav be different. Senator Depew's characterization of Alonday's panic as a "ghost scare" .s exactly ti ue. It was a clear case of being frightened without cause. HUMAN NATURE STUDIES. Seeing the Editors. The stranger In a great city was be ing thown over tho orflce of a great publication establishment, says the Washington Star. Xle raw tho presses and the type-setting outfit, and then he sild with a little timidity: "Theie's one thing more I'd like to see." "What's that?" "I'd like to see 'em edit." "Oh! Of course. I had pretty near ly forgotten that. You know, we're so enterprising that thf editing Is only a small part of It. But we've got edi tors, lots of 'em. Sop that man with the wastebasket by the &lde of his desk and the stack of mall three feet high'" "Yes " "We've got up a discussion on kiss ing bugs. He's the kissing bug edi tor. Tho man Just to his right, with nil the diamonds, gives advice to peo ple In love. He's the wounded hearts editor. These pot My, handsome gen tlemin to the right, who are engaged In ordering office boys around, are the sea-set pent, how-to-be-beautiful and fcummer-diinks editor. Tho how-not-to-eat-wlth-your-knlfe editor Is away on his vacation. The ls-lt-right-lo-hug-whlle-shootlng-the-chutes- editor Is doing his woik. The when-to-put-on-flannels editor Is away on his vaca tion, too " "And the unassuming man, who sits away off In the corner and doesn't seem to be in It?" "Oil he's just a managing editor or nn ctlltor-ln-chlef or somebody I don't know exactly what." Hobart's First Fee. One of the tesldents of P.Uerson ie lates how the late vice-president made his Hist fee as a lawyer, says the Philadelphia North American. Ho was employed to write tho will of a well known manufacturer of Paterson, who was wealthy. Asked his fee. Air. Ho b.ut, tho legal lledgling, replied: "One bundled dollars." It was fiom this that he iccelved n significant hint how to succeed ns a lawyer. The manufac tuier was well pleased with his attor ney, and. turning to his desk, drew out a package of hank checks that ha I come In during the tegular course of business. Taking up one for $800. he indorsed it nnd luinded It to Air. Ho bart. "With this start in life." said the narrator of the story, "Air. Ilobart married the daughter of Socrates Tut tle, who has been his helpmeet through nil the years that have followed. Years afterward Mr. Ilobart learned that the granddaughter of his first client was about to bo married, and that tho family had been reduced to financial straits. He sent to her his check for $150 to assist In purchasing her trousseau and took steps to pro vido other members of the family wltn employment." Taken for n Doer. Howard C. Hlllegus, whose recent book on ' Oom Paul and Ills People" has attincted wide attention, has been besieged by peoplo desiring informa tion on South Africa and the Boors', relates the New York World. A young woman, a writer for one of the big newspaper syndicates, called on him the other day. She wished to got material for a Boer article, but had been sadly misinformed. Tho little woman was somewhat timid when she entered the room, but finally asked coyly: "Are you the writer?" "Yes," replied Mr. IIIHegur. "You will not mind, will you, telling mo Just a few facts about your poor, struggling peoplo " "My people!" gasped tho young writer. "Why, tho last I heard they were prosperous and living In Penn sylvania. Have they met with mis fortune?" Tho timid woman seized the arm of her rhalr for support. "I thought you were a Eoerl" sho exclaimed. A Struggle for Consistency. Prlnco Henry of Orleans has n pleas ant pystom of literary work. When ho travels he takes with him a corps of talented men, Including a physician, a scientist, nn editor, a historian and n photographer, each of whom makes a dally contribution to the book which Is to describe tho Journev. In describ ing this method nt a Paris salon, a friend Ironically asked: "And what Is the hard work which you do for your book?" "The nattiest of nil," s.i'd the prince. "I have the overwhelming duty of mnklng the various accounts agree." Saturday Evening Post. His Given Name. This Item has been going the rounds of the Australian pi ess: "A. Swin dle" Is the name that appears over the door of a struggling lawyer In an up-country town In New South Wales. A friend of the unfortunate gentleman suggested the advisability of writing out his name In full, thinking that Arthur or Andiew Swindle, as the case might be, would look better and sound better than the significant " A. Swin dle." When the lawyer, with tears in his eyes, whispered to him that his name was A-ditm, the friend un derstood, and was silent. PERSONALITIES.
