With Agulnaldo a prisoner and the war upposed to be at an end, tho position of tho t'nlted States lu the Philippines be comes somewhat less logical than It was be fore. While a state of war Is In existence people are apt not to think of much beyond Inning the fight. It Is made a patriotic Imie to sustain the government, beenuse it Is at war and because the honor of tho country demands that It triumph. This dc tnand on patriotism has been exacted to the utmost In tho Philippines affair. And it must be acknowledged that tho public lias responded generously. The theory that we must not think of such a thing as with- rawing because It would look cowardly to Ithdrnw while there was an enemy In rms. and that wo must compel tho Fili pinos to acknowledge our Hag because their country had been legally ceiled to us, has been most effective In quieting opposition to expansion. Hut that theory cannot do duty much longer. What is to succeed It? When wo no longer havo a war to Justify us In re maining in tho Philippines, what Is to Jus- Ify us? Wo may plead tho unfitness of tho Filipinos for self-rule, but that at best must bc as temporary nn argument as the nr. For If wo gle them local self-rule, as we already have begun to do, it can be but a short tlmo before they will develop fitness for uatlonal self-rule. On what principle ran we deny it to them? And It c nrc not going to deny It to them when they aro fit, why not hold out the promise f eventual Independence now as a spur to exertion and a safeguard ngalnst future In surrection during tho necessary period of our occupation? The Philippines have been only n con- tant expense In blood nnd money siucu they were acquired, and they can never be anything else than an expense. Hardly ny of our Boldlers aro remaining there o settle, ns many Inevitably would If tho country were suitable for white colonlza- lon, nor Is any other class of tmmtgra Ion of any consequence entering the Islands from tho United States. Practically the only profitable Investments that havo been made thcro havo been In nrmy eon- tracts. Others doubtless will bc made In ho development of the country eventually, but the United States surely cannot ndopt the policy of maintaining great eastern colonics merely as a place of Investment for a few rich men. That would bo a foolish course, putting all moral questions aside, for we need all our capital for our own development here at home. It would bo us If the city of Ilufliilo should tax Its citl zens generally to promote nu Investment by some of Its rich men off In California, instead of trying to keep the capital at homo and build up its own industries. Now hat tho Incentives of war and patriotism aro removed from tho question, is it not time for a return of sanity on this subject of the Philippines? to sell munitions of war to foreign bel- to his discretion to augment this force when necessary to 100,000.

Tbotc enterprising sons of Maine whose habitat Is in the region lying nil about tho mouth of tho St. Croix river and whose privilege and delight It ls to capture the young and unwary menhaden by the mil lions and to imprison them in oil, still per slL in their adherence to that pleasing fiction of trade by which tho brevoortia tyranmus nnd tho clupea harengus arc mado to masquerade as the clupea pll- chardus. The commercial agents at Dan- gor ot theso mlsnomerlng canncrs have caused lt to be announced In tho news paper press ot this country that "the larg est shipment ot sardines ever made from the Malno 'factories" is now on Its way to New York nnd other points of distribution thirty-eight carloads, or 38,000 cases of tho fishes, and ail from Kastport. How have tho mysteries of tho Ameri can sea food industry and a changing popu lar taste In the last quarter of a century elevated these little denizens of the deep! The Narragansctt Indians named them munnawhattcaug, "fertilizer," because with their decayed carcasses the corn fields of the aborigines wcro wont to bc manured at regular Intervals; but now be hold them traveling ovcr the whole wldo world bathed In the oil of the American cottonseed and posing before princes, presi dents and politicians as tho lordly but dellcnto pilchard of France, Spain and Portugal! They are In self-asserting evi dence wherever men or women meet to eat at the picnic, at tho secret midnight feast ot the girl sophomores, on the lunch counters of cafe and buffet, nnd even now they nre fast pushing to tho wall the Amerlcn chicken that once held the place of honor In a club sandwich. Is this sort of thing never to stop? Must the epicures of the twentieth century bo buncoed by mossbunkers, hardheads, flat- backs, pogles, chebogs nnd schoollcs ln this disgraceful fashion? Has the pis catory crown of the Sardinians been knocked off tor all time? Is tho clupea pllchardus hopelessly Incapablo of recoro nation on this side of tho Atlantic? One ray of hope glints from tho Uangor dispatch. It proclaims that "Eastport sar dines are now bringing $.lu per case, against $?,GS last year," and adds with a candor ah commendable as It Is unwonted: "Utile herrings were scarce In 1P00 nnd tho pack was small, which accounts for tho great raise In price." May the price continue to rlso until the St. Croix fishermen all get rich, nnd tho genuine sardine, in Its own oil of the olive, drives out tho spurious product by the very force of its lower price! vised. lt would bo better policy for the State department to publish the communi cation of tho Ilrltlsh government rejecting the treaty, so that the American people rnn percelvo what tho situation really is. Tho negotiation of the llay-Patincefoto treaty was unquestionably a blunder nnd n Is not desirable that lt should bo followed by another. The statement mado by tho reprcsontathc ot the Ilrltlsh Foreign office In Parliament was curt nnd uncompromis ing. It did not creato the Impression that a renewal of negotiations was desirable, nnd for this reason, if for no other, there is anxiety to learn what really was Qrcnt Hrltnln's communication In which tho treaty was rejected. if. as described by tho correspondents having access to the State department, lt was so entirely friendly, no hurra can pos sibly arise from its publication, and tho secretary's recent failure makes lt politic to take the public Into his confidence be foro ho makes another attempt There Is no reason to suppose from what Is known that England wishes to renew negotiations on tho basis ot the Clayton-Ilulwer treaty, but the terms In which the rejection of tho Ilny-Pauncefoto treaty was expressed may shed some light on the subject. There Is a much stronger reason, however, for al- lowlnc tho matter to rest until congress meets. Thcro Is scarcely a possibility that tho secretary can negotlato such a treaty ns will be acceptable to the senate. It Is safe to say that there never was a more astonished official than the secretary when tho Hay-Paunccfotc treaty was condemned by tho senate. This astonishment, how ever, did not extend to tho public. It ls not apparent that tho secretary has changed his views, and unless he has done so any treaty mado with England, anu based upon tho Clayton-Uulwer convention, must fall. Thcro Is opposition not only ln thn senate, but all over tho United States, tn tho Clavton-Uulwer treaty. For this reason no treaty which recognlrcs the Clay-ton-llulwrr convention will be acceptablo to the senate. That body destroyed' the Hay-Pauncefote treaty in a most courteous and diplomatic fashion. It may not tie so Dlcasant with another agreement embodying substantially the samo features, for such features must bo preserved If the btnte ue nartrnent wishes to propitiate England. The situation Is really a simple one. The Clayton-Uulwer treaty, as has been fre aucntlv pointed out by tho American, con tains a provision for Its abrogation by either party upon six months' notice. This provision applies to the canal, but with tne canal eliminated tho United States need not trouble Itself further about tho matter, Neither England nor any other European country would care to question tho inter csts or policy of this country ln either of the American continents. To abrogate that portion of tho treaty applicable to tho canal would require but six months, ana that ls tho rao9t direct, the simplest and tho speediest way of settling the matter. Had there been no Hay-Pauncefote treaty thero would have been no necessity for even this. Tho government could have as sumed the abrogation of the treaty and car ricd out Its plans on tho Isthmus. l'OI.Ti:il im.kasatiiii:s.

During tho greater part of 1897 ho was the legal adviser of the Cuban Junta in New York. The success of that body in conquer ing tho sympathies and segregating the dol lars of nn Impulslvo people Is, and will forever remain, the object of our respect ful amazement.
