however, should not be tho ground on

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

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

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.

MELZAK, THE GENTILE.

Heard, with a stnitlcd wonder, Paul tho
Apostle great.
Ignorant, wretched, unletteied, ho lis
tened In awe ar.d believed;
Christ as Ales blah and Alaster the sim

Pondered ho long tho story, tho marvelous
Christ-child's blilh,
Vision of love Incarnate coming from
heaven to earth.
Often wished Alekar, tho Gentile, that ho
had beheld tho star,
Following after Its gleaming to the sa-
cied afar.
Ignorant quite, and untutored, ho pon
dered again ami again,
Wistfully hoping the beacon onco more
might uppear to men.
Seeing ono evo with rapturo a star with
a marvelous light,
Alelzar, 111 with n fever, hastened Into tho
night.
Weakened -with suft'rlng and anguish,
feebly ho rose from his bed.
Following, following, whither the star In
its beauty led,
"Surely at length, I shall seo Him," Alel
zar, rejoicing, cried;
"Lend me. oh, Star of Wonder, close to
my Master's side."
Far from his homo they found him, thero

Whoso seckoth tho Chrlst-chlld, sceketh

heart would beat ro fast that I thought I would die. I had given up all hopes of ever
getting well. I niicr had a day goocr my head without that terrible feeling and
dread of dying. I spent a considerable sum of money doctoring. My fiiends all re
marked how bad I looked and made all kinds of suggestions. Some said change
doctors, others said go away for a change, but one friend who had been sick with the
tame thing, said he was completely cured by the use of IUpans Tabulcs. This
encouraged me and I made up my mind to try them. I did so, and after using them
two month I have not had nn attack. My heart seems to be O. K., and I have not
lost a day's work since I began to use the Tabules, I feel In faU I might say well;
still I take one Tabule now and then. I don't believe I would bate been here to-day
if I had not used this medicine. I am willing to tell any one what ttipans Tabulcs
have done for me if they will write to me."
