Point vui tha Imbecility f 1hl
McKinley Administration
Tbe imperialist press may fool thei
, parti ia n readers but tbey cannot tool tbe.
GisiiiterfStefl onlookers ol other nations
8ome ol McKinlej's friends should aug
gest to biro that be ought to read Burns
and ponder a while over the lines:
"Ob, would some power tbe gif tie gie us
To ete ourselves as itbere see us."
Tbe following quotations from tbe
leading Journals of several different na
Hons shows tbat McKinlev cannot fool
them with bis plea of "benevolent asslm
ilation" and tbat they comprehend tb
fact he baa a very bad job on bis bands,
. The Ilonkong (China) T-legraph re
marks tbat whereas tbe case of tbe
United States In her war against tbe
Filipinos is as a rule very flatteringly
represented, the Filipino view is not
given. It points out that the proposal
to conclude peace comes from tbe Filipl
nos, out toe Americans would not even
permit snarmitice to ascertain the opin
ion of tbe I ilipinos by means of the bal
lot. As for tbe terms offered by tbe
tbe American Commission, tbe Telegraph
thinks these are simply preposterous,
We quote as follows:
"There is not one word in these propo
sals from beginning to end tbat secure
to tbe native any one of tbe things they
havetxMi fihtiug" to secure. It leave
the permanent government of tbe conn
,try entirely at the mercy of Congress,
without even a faint that tbe Fihpiuo
will be repnsentd before Congress, or
tbat their opinious and desires will be
taken into consideration.
It provides an interim government of
the vaguest possible description, leaving
aDsoiute power in an tniugs, great and
, small, in the bands of tbe nomiuees ol
tbe president ot tbe United States fur
tbe time being. It sas nothing about
tbe law to be adminis ered, the taxes t
be levied, the rights to be accorded.
Each village community has under
Spanish law largely governed itself, b
is not stated thai even tome limited
rights are to be preserved to tbem. li
ays nothing about religion or tbe relig
iose order. ,
. An ndvisorv council whose recommen
dations the governor general can abso
.lately veto can have no attractions even
for. people till recently under Bpanieli
dominion.
Tbe proposals are farcical. They con
cede bottling. They promise, notbiuji
for the present or future. Tbe Filipino
are right to reject tbem, if tbey are not
in a pod t ion where there is no chance
but abolute surrender. An absolute
unconditional submission would giv
tbem as muub as is now offered tbem. Il
tbise are as tbey reasonably may be,
tba opinions of the Filipinos, then all
men will eay tbey are right.
Tbe American nation r quireeenlighten
lag upon tbesseobjectsol tbe Philippine-
lit lift ikMktila. Thai rs-liiiiki.
ol tbe Amerk:aa proposal at least serves
to prove tbat the Filipinos are by no
means so uncivilised as to be incapable
of appreciating to what they would have
committed themselves had the proposal
been accepted. We do not thiuk that
matters will be improved so long as tbe
American Commissioner fails to realise
tbe fact tbat tbey are dealing with ao
eompliehed and civilised dip omates, and
not with a rabble of uuediicttN savages
who have not u (Sclent brainpower to
distinsraieh between good and evil."
r . The 8t. James Oncette, London, say:
"We use the cnndorof a friend and
count tell tbe United States that the
bluuder tbey have made in the Philip
pine is little to their credit. When ou
set about tbe acquisition of real prop
erty, in a spirit at once of thrift aud
universal philHntbrophy.it is only bum
nees like to consider what servitudes yon
takeover with the land, It bus been
pretty obvious for some time tbe Ameri
can bnve omitted thin precaution.
Tbe American, as all the world can
soon m made, a groes initial mis
take when t hey took over the Pbilippiuee.
Tbey forgot to provide an efltek nt pub
lic service and an effective army. Per
baps tbe ease with which tbe Spanish
rule went down mislead tbem, but this
is really nom uee. Tbe political faculty
of our people, abont which tbey are so
fond ol talking In America, onabt to
have shown them that tbe collapse of
tbe Spaniards was due to the fact that
tbvj were already overpowered by the
Filipinos. A moment's consideration
might eurel.v have shown them tbat a
piople bo bad practically secured their
Independence by their own fighting,
wonld not vlve it up tamely.
Why the events of the American news,
papers, who wieh to pass for possessing
considerable enterprise, aver tbnnht
of sending their letters home by Hong
Kong we do not know. They bsve
fonnd the road at last and their com
bined voio sends a ruessaire which can
not be verv pleasing to American self
. rrepcrt. The um and substance of it is
that tbe sovereign people ol the state
have been iiloriously befooled, that the
Filipino army i a vast deal better then
General Otis will conges it is, that the
Filipinos have a government, and that
tbe Americans have suffered rwerse
which the general has never confessed.
This is not credible to them; but what is
far wpree is the prolonged and deliber
ate dishonesty ot the government intent
on deceiving tbe people, tt must be
tekn ti pettier with the prevalence of
, Alirerism at home," .
The Journal de Debate. Paris, eavs:

old masters, which is quite good enough
to make them redoubtable enemies.
Tbe German paper point out that tb
censorship exercised in waningtou
rigorous but not ektliful. Many item
published show that the Americans mak
no beadwav. (One account of a "via
torv" contained tbe statement tbat Hi
flying Filipinos took with thra their ar
tiiierv. drawn by waiter ii iioes, am
male nofavite fast as Jersey cow
Ed. Literary Digest.) Systematic If irts
were made to keep the truth from tli
Americans, while the trade established
by other people is slowly killed, says tbe
Berlin Zeitnnir. J be aut Dent ica ten
accounts of American soldiers boasting
of tbe money they "found in the na
ttves bouses and tbe stories published in
tbe American papers of the theft ot Ml
verand gold chalices from tbe churches,
tend to lower tne prestige ot tne a men
can name In countries where such crimes
are punished by long terms at bard
labor. Tba reported intention of tba
government to use exceptionally fero
clou weapons also excites comment.
Tbs Handelsblad of Amsterdam, aol
land says:
"While American delegates appear
earnestly working for some practical
results of tb peace coufereace, a report
comes Irom Nf w York wbicb must be
read twice, it seems so incredible. Tbe
war department is busy trying a new
dynamite gun which it in bopwf will kill
wnoie regiment at a time. The Hor
rible projectiles of this sun are in ended
opecially for the Filipinos. Gen. Oti-i, we
are told, baa expressed tne hope that
this weapon will terrorize the Filipinos
nto sunmiwHiou."
The Victoria (Can.) Times says:
"Military talents, Gen. Otis seems to
have none, bat be possssaea, if tba dis
patcnes are to be trotted, all tne arro
gance and presumption which are usual
y found associated wltb tbe iuferiov
mind. Such a man couldn't obtain a
commission in the British army and ha
wouid never be likely to reach, anything
higher than a third class clerkship in
our civil service." (

SAME OLD TRICK
Jefferson City, Mo., Aug 11. A hasty
examination of tbe petition filed by tbe
middle of-the road populist, certifying
to tbe nomination of W. R. Hale of
Phelps county as their candidate for
congress, snows conclusively tbat it ia
largely tbs republicans who are running
Mr. Hale and not the populists. Here
re some of tbe signers 00 the petition.
U0fge B. Hubbard, republican ex-
county collector of Morgan conmvrE.
G. Hale, republican ex sheriff and col
lector of MonitebU county; E. C. Bourne,
also republican ex sheriff and collector
f Moniteau county; Oorge Fountain.
republican ex-sheriff and collector of
Moniteau county and at present deontv
United States internal revenue collector.
In fact in Moniteau county alone more
than two-thirds of the signers of the
populist petition are known to be repub
licans. John M. Williams, ex-state sen
ator from the Moniteau county district,
andl republican, nominee for oonntv
jndge at the last election, was one of the
mxn who circulated the ooou 1st net It ion
In that, county. ' None of thee, men pre
tend tbat tbey will vote for Mr. Hale.
Tbe abov3 is taken from a paper in
Bland's old district. It seems to be the
same plan tbat was worked when Bill
Deck was put on the ticket by petition
ers who were all republicans except
three. ''-', ,
WHAT DEWEY'SAYS.
London, Aug. 21. The Naples corres
pondent of the daily mail, telegraphs
tbe substance of an interview he had
with Admiral Dewey during his recent
visit. Admiral Dewey said he believed
the Philippine question would shortly be
solved. In bis judgment tbe inhabitant
were capable ol self govern men t. and thn
only way to settle tbe insurrection aud
to insure prosperity was toconcede it t6
them. He declared that he was ne er in
favor of violence toward tbe Filipinos,
and remarked tbat after autonomy had
been conceded annexation might be
talked of.
When asked whether a conflict he(ppn
G -rmany and the United States over the
Philippines were possible, Admiral Dwy
replied, according to the correspondent:
"It. is impossible to foresee the unforser.
able."

one day last week. While he refused to

Great are tbe possibilities of these peo
ple and tbeir country. Tbey are quick
to perceive the advantages of western
civilisation. Tbey are inspired bv a
hope to improve their condition intellec
tnallyand materially. Cudfr the direc
tion of the American gorernntent the in
habitants of tbe Philippine islands will
show strides in the arts of civilization
quite as remarkable aa tbe progress at
tained by tbe Japanese the last thirty
years. Tlir e d-ades ago the Japa
nese were as benighted, exclusive and in
tractable as tbe Chinese are today, vet
in thirty years tbe wonderful progress
made by the Japanese has raised that
nation to a treaty power, until it is ad
mitted to the family of nations. Such
achievement are postble with the Fili
pino, who is-no lens intflliuen.t, though,
perhaps less industrious than the Japa
nese. "Americans must deal gently with the
Filipino. He is entitled to sympathetic
consideration. There are mny pleas
ing traits in his character. His home
lif is exemplary, and a a class be is
well disposed toward bis neighbor or bis
euperior. Ouce his confidence is gained,
if dealt with in a frank, straightfor
ward manner, tbe misunderstandiuK will
all be diesipated and the Filipino will
realize tbat the American is bis friend."

Only 100 miles southeast of the fertile
green fields of Eastern Washington, be
tween the clearwater and Salmon rivers,
lies what was long known aa the Ni
Perees Indian country, only recently
throwo open to settlement and mining.
Rmce tbe early sixties when f. 18.000,
000 was washed out of the rich placers
of tbe Clearwater and Salmon river it
bas been a tradition among miners tbat
some day great gold discoveries would
be made in the.N i IVrces conurrj. Tbe
enormous cost of transportation, re
moteness from civilization and conse.
quent impossibility of carrying on large
mining operations left tbe rich quarts
ledgts the mother-lodes of the placers
untouched. Almost simultaneously
with the completion ot the Northern
Pacific's LewiHton extension from Spo
kane, came tbe announcement of tbe
discovery in the Buffalo Hump range of
immense ledges of gold bearing quarts
which, crooping out above tbe serface,
and twenty feet or more in widtb, ex
tend in different directions for many
miles. Tbe rapid extension of the Clear
water Line of tbe Northern Pacific, now
building along tbe river from Lewiston,
will soon throw this heretofore almost
tnacceeiblti country open to capital, and
modern machinery with American grit
