The British who nro complaining of

The Army and Navy Journal Huggonts
that the United States swnp the Philip-
jiincfl to Great Britain for Canada nnd
its otbor Ainerionn possessions. Per-
liapa this might bo Batisfuctory to the
United States if the British nro willing.
'It is reported from Washington thnt
tlio govcniinont is about to iiiHtitnto
proceedings against that fninousmilroad
merger. If Unolo Sam takes n hand in
the game it may bo expected that there
will bo some interesting development.
The condition of young Toddy llooso-
volt is now reported in n few lines in
the daily press and it IB presumed that
those who feared thnt young man WIIH
receiving too much attention are nblo to
view the reduction of his notoriety with
cqunnimiiy.
Secretary Ilay has given the c/.nr's
government to understand thnt its
policy in China is objectionable and
while the llussian boar may bo inclined
to show his tooth at the interference it
is probable that ho will wisely make
junttors right in Muuchuria ,
The Bco has arranged its republican
anti-Savage comments by counties nnd
it really looks as though his excellency
had but few bnliwioks on which ho may
defend for n rouoniiuation. The eonti
jnent expressed by the press may not bo
the sentiment of the rank nnd iiloof the
party , but the chances nro thnt it is.
President Roosevelt has handled a
Tory embarrassing decision with much 1' '
honor nnd credit , nud his opinion on the
Schloy-Sampson controversy is the most
satisfactory adjustment of the difllonlty
thnt has yet been given the public. In
determining that the Santiago light was
really n captains' battle ho places the
credit where it undoubtedly belongs , nud
the people will consider it an honor nud
a pleasure to support his opinion.
The court that sentenced Bank
"Wrecker Gould , who got awny with
nbont | 250,000 , must have considered
thnt If n longer sentence was imposed
and Governor Suvago was in olllce , ns
ho expects to IK > , ho would bo pardoned
anywny , nud determined to make the
flontonco so light that it would offer
alight excuse for oreontivo clemency.
Perhaps too , in comparison with the
.
tiino served by bartloy , the sentence is
aot too light. Events are proving thnt
it is comparatively safer to bo a big
thief thnn a small one , bat oven thnt re
quires some ability.
Some of the sentimental fusion edi
tors nro professing that the removal of the
light from the statue of liberty in Now
York hnrbor ia a symbol of the decay of
the liberty of the country. If liberty
had been born with the placing of the
light in the statue they might have
reason for their pessimistic utterances
but liberty had been installed long before
fore Bartholdi presented that statuo. I
liberty depends on a mere light in i
tower or any ancient writing it is on i
most iustublo foundation indeed. Un
til the spirit of liberty is removed fran
tbo hearts of the American pcoplo th
calamity wallers have no reason to
worry about its overthrow and there
will outlive any more symbol or form o
liberty.
Governor Savngo has taken the bul
by the horns and no longer expresses
desire to retire to his farm , lean ngaius
a haystack uud exchange yarns am
chewing tobacco with the hired man o :
guess on the weight of n bunch of Berk
nhiro pigs. On tbojcoutrary , he is pro >

SENATE TALKS ON PHILIP.'INES.
Colorado Senator Charges False Re
port on Islands Sducatlon of 'In
dians In East Opposed In Vain In
House Carlisle School Retained.
Washington , Feb. 21. With the ex
ception of a few minutes given to rou-
Ino business , the scuta devoted Its
entire session to the Philippine ques-
Ion. Patterson ( Colo. ) , one of the
minority members of the Philippines
commission , delivered his first extend
ed speech In the senate and was given
i most attentive and careful hearing ,
lo discussed principally the sedition
aws enacted by the Philippines com
mission , vigorously attacking the au
thority of the commission to enact
and enforce such laws , lie main
tained that congress alone had tbo
power to put In force enactments of
bat character. He compared Informa
tion furnished by the executive de-
imrtincnts of the government with
some of the statements of Governor
1'aft In his testimony before the Phil-
pplnes commission with respect to
the capabilities of the Filipinos , and
declared , with some heat , his belief
hat Governor Taft misrepresented the
true situation In the Islands for mo
tives unknown. Ho assorted that If
the G.000,000 Christians in the Phll-
pplnes were Protestant Christians ,
the cruelties practiced on them by
the American authorities would have
to stop , as no member of congress
would be able to withstand the wrath
of the Methodists , Baptists and Pres
byterians of this country.
Nelson ( Minn. ) presented a legal
and constitutional argument In sup
port of this government's action In
the Philippine archipelago and sharply
criticised Patterson for Injecting Into
the controversy the question of sec
tarianism. McCumber ( N. D. ) urged
that congress should not bind the fut
ure now by a declaration of a definite
policy regarding the Philippines.
Indian Bill In House.
Washington , Fob. 21. The house
spent the day working on the Indian
appropriation bill. Forty-two of the
G2 pages were disposed of. Several
amendments wcro adopted , but none
of much importance. Smith ( A. T. )
offered an amendment to strike out
the appropriation for the Carlisle
school , and It became tbo text for u
general onslaught on the practice of
educating Indians In eastern schools.
His amendment was defeated. Just
before the close of the session Fitz
gerald ( N. Y. ) made an attack upon
the superintendent of the school at
Mount Pleasant , Mich. , who , ho sold ,
was charged with permitting the de
bauching of Indian girls. Sherman ,
chairman of the Indian committee ,
promised to make an investigation at
the Indian office.
