DISHONESTY AND EXTRAVA
GANCE OF M'KINLEYISM.
How Army Officer. Are Permitted to
bntr/ Double Pax In Dircet Violation
of the Constitution of ttie United
States—Militarism Running Mud.
(Washington Correspondence.)
The American people have just been
given a new object lessoh in the dis
honesty and extravagance encouraged
by this administration. It comes to
light that the American army officers,
occupying administrative positions in
Cuba, have been drawing enormous
perquisites from Cuban revenues in
addition to their regular salaries.
This has been done by the con
nivance of the war department, and
Secretary Root tries to justify it by
saying that the officers needed the
money in order to live in proper style
in Cuba.
There is a law which prohibits an
ofllcer of the army or navy drawing
more than one salary, and that, his
pay as an officer, but the administra
tion allows the extras as a sort of
"bonus," and is trying to hide behind
the technicality that it comes from
the Cuban revenues and not those of
the United States.
It is said that the governor's palace
In Havana has been refitted and fur
nished in truly imperial style, and the
Cubans are being given the object
lesson of American extravagance
which completely overshadows the ex
penditures of Spanish officials in the
old days.
Congress may investigate the mat
ter, but the majority are already try
ing to explain that they didn't know
it was going on, and even if it was
there was justification. The trouble
is that the Republicans are accumu
lating altogether too many things
which need explanation and justifica
tion. The people would prefer a pol
icy which omitted such mistakes.
* • •
In the case of Porto Rico the dou
ble salary and bonus for cost of offi
cial living is about to be Inaugurated,
and the President took the precaution
to send a message to congress asking
that the military officers be permitted
to perform civil functions while the
administration is trying to make a se
lection of office holders from the mob
of carpet-baggers who surround the
White House.
The message, of course, neglected
to state that the double salaries would
be paid, but that will be the case if
Mr. McKinley's congress approves his
recommendation —and it probably
Fill.
The Porto Rican government bill
was very carelessly drawn. It sus
pended the old courts and made no
provisions for the establishment of
new ones, and provided no definite
time when the new civil government
should go into effect. It included,
however, a provision which would al
low the administration's executive
council t6 give out all the valuable
franchises without let or hindrance.
The Republicans are discussing some
amendment in this respect—which will
give out the franchise privileges Just
the same but not quite so openly.
The new government is to be in
stituted with all the pageantry and
pomp and splendor with which Rome
was accustomed to Install proconsuls
in conquered territory.
Presumably the administration
wants to Impress both the Porto
Ricans and the Americans with the
fact imperialism is now an accom
plished fact and not a theory.
The "carpet-baggers" are rather dis
appointed that there are not enough
Porto Rican plums to fill all the hun
gry mouths, but the administration is
soothing them with promises of still
bigger plums in the Philippines when
that troublesome "insurrection" is
quelled and the cowed natives are
ready to be plundered without pro
test.
Congress is being asked to lavish
money on the navy in all sorts of
ways. The armor plate factories want
a free hand to charge $545 per ton, or
any other price they please, for armor
plate, though It has been proved that
the very best Krupp plate could be
manufactured in a government factory
for about S2OO a ton. It really doesn't
make much difference how the bill
is amended, the war department offi
cials propose to give the armor plate
combine whatever price they desire.
The naval bill asks for $13,000,000
more than was ever wanted for the
navy in any preceding year. Battle
ships are being built faster than offi
cers are educated to man them.
Though the present bill asks the out
rageous sum of six millions of dollars
under the pretense that this sum is
needed to train officers at Annapolis.
The fact is that it is wanted to fur
nish luxurious quarters so that the
cadets will be trained for the sump
tous living already provided for offi
cers on the battle ships.
Chairman Hepburn of the house
committee on interstate and foreign
commerce announces that the Nicar
agua Canal bill will be ready for con
sideration on May 1.
The bill which is now proposed gives
the United States the Hlstinguished
privilege of digging a cami, but there
is neither "fortify" of "defend" clause
In it.
The administration henchmen
blr.ndly eexplain that Great Britain
already feels rather offended over the
Shelving o' the Hav-Pauncefote treaty
and It may be as well not to Irritate
her by suggesting that this country
will defend the canal, suggesting that
this country will fortify the canal
In fact these Pro-British Republicans
lave the audacity to recommend that
the canal be built first, and when it
is finished—say six or seven years
from now—the question of fortification
might be taken up. Sentiment among
the Republicans is pretty well divided
over the measure, but even if it passes
the house it will be torn to tatters
in the senate. The senate Republi
cans have discretion enough left to
know that the country has had more
than enough of the administration's
friendship with Great Britain, and that
it will be wise not to add any more
fuel to this particular flame.
It is all a part of the administra
tion's policy of unlimited extravagance
that the war taxes are to be allowed
to pile up an immense surplus in the
treasury. The Republican party can
find plenty of ways of spending it 11
only the people will return it to power
for another four years.
It would be, perhaps, of some cam
paign advantage to reduce the taxes
in certain directions, but the enormom
expenditures in every direction must
be partly recompensed by a portion
of these heavy taxes, and it is re
garded as too delicate a matter to
make a partial reduction. So the peo
ple are to bear the taxes, in time of
peace, as long as the Republicans
have the power to continue the ex
action. JACKSON DAY.
THE APOSTLE OF CANT.
Would it be gilding refined gold and
painting the lily to say that President
McKinley is the Apostle of Cant —
meaning by that cant in its most of
fensive term, the slimy, sliddery cant
that disgusts honest men? In none
of the mantles of cant does Mr. Mc-
Kinley appear to worse advantage than
when posing at missionary meetings,
as at Ocean Grove during the past
summer, and as he will appear at Car
negie hall, April 20, before represent
atives of missionary societies at work
in all countries, front Greenland's icy
mountains to India's burning strand.
As the vast congregation stands up to
sing Bishop Heber's immortal mission
ary hymn, which long ago burst
through sectarian lines and became
the possession of all Christian people,
we wonder what burning thoughts will
flash through Mr. McKinley's mind at
the words
"Shall we whose souls are lighted,
With wisdom from on high.
Shall we to men benighted.
The lamp of life deny?"
Will the Apostle of Cant think at
that moment of the blotches of blood
and the foul stains of crime which
he has draggled over the annals ol
the republic founded by our fathers,
a light to enlighten the world witb
liberty, and the glory of godly people?
We think not. On the contrary, we
feel assured, that after the Blnging ol
the hymn is over, President McKinley
will arise and shuffle off a choice col
lection of truisms from his book of
canting phrases, ending with a phon
ographical selection of elevated senti
ments like those he voices before
every one of his mean and shuffling
acts.—Newark (N. J.) Ledger.
The New Democracy Stands Firm.
The reclamation of the Democratic
party by the people, and its new bap
tism in the faith of the fathers drove
the money kings and corporations, to
gether with their agents and attor
neys, into the Hannaite camp. They
carried with them a large number of
voters, mostly residents of cities who
were influenced by the ravings of the
subsidized commercial press. But
notwithstanding this Democratic can
didates polled a million more votes
than were ever caßt for any candidate
at a preceding election.
Four years have passed during
which time the scenes have been var
ied and shifting, presenting new and
alluring temptations. But the regen
erated Democracy has stood steadfast
through all and today the people are
in absolute control of the party with
their sentinels upon its outer battle
ments challenging the foes of popular
government and successfully main
taining the integrity of their organi
zation against the assaults of open
and concealed foes. They stand stead
last for all that they represented in
1896 and without a break in their
ranks interpret with one voice the new
issues that have been presented by
the application to them of the funda
mental principles upon which the gov
ernment is founded. —National Watch
man.
Reduce the W.r TRIM.
In Congress, which, at this session,
has gone to hitherto unheard of
lengths to please and gratify the
trusts, going home without the small
est attempt to do anything for the
people? It Is notorious and admitted
on all hands that the internal revenue
war taxes are no longer necessary to
the support of the Government, and
that they are producing a huge and
embarrassing surplus in the Treasury.
What Is the excuse for continuing
them? The people are now murmur
ing and loudly expressing their dis
content at this useless burden.
Do the Republican leaders in Con
gress fancy that they can safely allow
this discontent of the people to grow,
while they busy themselves with the
Subsidy bill, to hand over a gratuity
of ninety million dollars to a dozen
or less plutocratic monopolists, and
other measures of similar flagrancy?
Are they completely Imbued with the
Vanderbiltlan idea of "the public be
damned?" —Washington Times.

PREACHED IN SHIRTSLEEVES.
Kentucklau Thought the Episcopal Pre
late a Plain Man.
%ot long ago Bisrtiop Dudley of iven
tucky went to preach in a little town
in the western part of the state, where
there are no Episcopal churches, and
only one, in fact, of any other denomi
nation. The people are unfamiliar
with any but the plainest and moat
simple church service and entirely un
accustomed to the vestments which the
Episcopal clergy wear. The pastor of
/he "onlychurch,"a good,conscientious,
narrow minded man, hearing that the
bishop was coming on a certain Sun
day to preach at the courthouse, told
some of the "pillars" of his congrega
tion that he hoped they would not de
sert their own church to hear the
Episcopal service. On the appointed
Sunday what was the pastor's surprise
to notice half of his dock absent, and
upon Inquiry he learned that the court
house was thronged with the villag
ers. The next day he met one of his
chief supporters, whose , accustomed
seat had been vacant at the weekly
service, and the pastor questioned him
as to his whereabouts on Sunday. The
man replied that he had gone to hear
Bishop Dudley. "What!" replied the
clergyman. "Desert me to hear that
pompous prelate!" "You're mistaken
In the man," answered the culprit.
"Bishop Dudley is no pompous pre
late. He rreached In his shirtsleeves."
—Louisville Courier-Journal.
Blind People.
to far as the most recent statistics
go, the known propor.lw* blind peo
plo Is about cne In flrteen hundred,
which would give a total of one mil
lion blind In the world. The largest
proportion Is found In Russia, which
has in Europe 200,000 blind In a popu
lation of 96,000,000, or one In 480.
Most of these are found in the north
ern provinces of Finland, and the
principal causes Is ophthalmia, due to
bad ventilation of the hutß of the peas
antry and the Inadequate facilities for
treatment. There Is a great deal of
blindness In Egypt, due to glowing
sand.
Long-Haired and Short-Haired.
The following story Is told by Dr.
Pentecost. The Incident is said to
have taken place In the Boston taber
nacle. An usher came In and said:
"There Is a man without who wishes to
see you." "Well," said Moody, "I
have no time to see him now." "But,"
replied the usher, "he says he must
see you on important business." "What
kind of a man is he?" "Oh, he is a tall,
thin man, with long hair." "That set
tles It," said Moody; "I don't want to
see any long haired men or short
haired women."
