A standing army 100,000 strong, with shoulder-strap satrapies scattered over the world, under military rule, are not only incompatible with but dangerous to republican inatitutions. 4. Too much distraction from home problems. We are aware that onr great and good President second not even to Washing ton, according to Day and Ilanna ha said that we have "no home problems' that need take oar attention from the noble task of subjecting and civilising the inhabitants of the thousand islands in the China Sea.

Under the strained condition of affaire something was bound to occur of this character. It did occur and we now have another serious prob lem to face, and a war on our bands, a different kind ot war from tnat which we started out to engage in, but one which having on our bands, most be die. posed of. Our blood warms for onr sol diers, and Tet it is with regret tbst we read the particulars ot the. engagement, for our citizens generally hoped that the differences might be settled amicably without resort to arms. It could have beenaaily but for the conduct of Aqnin a'.do, who has in all probability been paid to oppose the Americans. Ibe Dkmociat ie oppoeea to forcing any people into submission, for sach is the imperialistic style, bnt in this case there are many reasons to believe the imu gent leader was fighting more for gold than for freedom. The proper course would bava been for the insurgents to have laid down their arms ia the fire place and placed themselves nnder the prelection of tbe United State-, while the new situation was being adjusted, and then th people of the islands should have been permitted to form their own government, nnder the protection of the U. S. Even this course was made im possible nnder the plan immediately fol lowed by Aquinaldo.

Tbe elder 8othera once eaw a notice in a country inn that a convention ol clergy men was to meet there the next day. Each clergyman npon arrival received a note, signed witb the landlord's name, requesting him to say grace - at dinner, tbe signal to be a bell rung in tbe office. Sothern had noticed that tbe landlord sounded a bell every day as tba guest seated themselves for dinner. Every thing went off to Kothern's complete sat isfaction. Tbe be'l rang and np rose every clergyman and began grace, then stopped, looking askance at eaeb o'.ber. tJome began again, some sat down and got up again. Tbe scene for some min utes was one of confused bobbing np and down, witb mutterings. Tbe landlord stared ia astonishment, and Sotbern put on a look ol polite anxiety and surprise. He afterward expressed sympathy witb the landlord in bis anger, bot left tbe inn that day. Other States have tbe same troubles. An Indiana paper says: One of the questions tbat baa been bjtberfng tbe Indiana Legislature, and it continue to worry, i the mileage matter. Under the existing law member are adowed 20 cents a mile for tbe dis ance traveled be tween their home and Indiaoapolis. A bill has been introduced to reduce tbe allowance to 10 cts per mile, and var ious amendments have been offered to the bill to make the allowanu still l?w er. What tbe republican msjority will do is a poser; tby don't like to let go of this little perquisita which given theml7 cts per mile on their traveling to and from legislative station, and yet they feel that people demand that Ibis legal game of grab be stopped . A senator, who ia does to the admin istration, in discussing the Philippine question the other day, ssid If the Filip inos did' no submit to American rnle, be wonld bava them whipped to deatb. Wben ft is rememeted that Ibe war by which we gained a shady title to the Philippiees was waged in tbe Interest of humanity it would seem this If rather barkb treatment to propose.

Tbe weather prophets who predicted a severe winter, are now savins "I told you so," and they areon top. (From John Morlev'a Speech to Scotch Liberate ) You may call it jingoism, yen may call it imperialism, fU it what you like- know the tbirg, and whether it comes from Liberal trachers or from Tory teacher I wonld beg of all my country men, and tbosn who are more tban conn rymen, my constituents, to remember what imperialism is in the sense in wbicb it is now us-d. Imperialism brings uh It militarism. and mast bring with it militarism. Mil -itarism means a giganlieexpenditore, dailT growing. It mean an increase in government ot thepowrr of aristocrat ic and privileged- class-. Militarism means the profusion ol tbe taxpayer money everywhere except in the taxpayer's own home, and militarism mcstr mean war. And you mast be mncb lees well read in histoiy tbau I take tbe Libcriaos of rcotiand tojbe if von do not know tbat it s not war, that hateful demon of war.but white-winged peace that has been the nurse and guardian of freedom and jut ice and well-being over that great army of toilers npon wbcae labor, and privat ion, and hardships, a'ter all, the great est and strength of empire and of states are founded and bmlt cp.

It is something no one ever forgets, and a few strides brings tbe tld equilibrium back. Tbe ratification of the treaty of peace does not settle tbe qnettioo of expansion, and it need not do so 'v.q to far as tbe Philippines are concerned, though tbere is little qoestioo now that the result will be the annexation cf tbe islands, part'e ularly after the caur.e taken by the in surgents in precipitating matter. A -farmer in New Yoik sta-.e. startled by an alarm of fire, jumped from bis window and broke hi neck, while hi wife and five children quietly walked dowa stairs and outdoors to safety. His rash act ia .explained by his family and friends oo tbe ground tbat he had been kept on the jump ad of his life and in his sleep it came second nature to jump from tbe window. Ex. The conduct of tne Filipinos shows emphatically tbat they are a people that we want nothirg to da with in a nation al way. Tbe idea of nuking a peoplejol their character a part nf us is n:t receiv ed wit'i relish by manv people. tVhat we know of them makes it plain that we will have more trouble with them tban we have even bad w'th the Indians. Tbe superiority of Uncle Sam's sold iers is dirp'ared in every engagement in which they enter. Tbe fact that they are backed by every loysl American un doubtedly add to tbelr strength.
