Tbe Tags Is wot'J sot asd cotud cot set cp a povercmett of tbeir own without positive cbcrch aSliatiocs and di Tislon of pobijc revenue. To what extefct does any one expect tbe United States not only to found yub!:cs with an established cburcb Let to protect tbcm afterward with arrry and navy? If to avert this dicul:y we Lad dictated absolute religious freedom to the Tagsls we sbould be tut in tbe position of forcing a constitution opon tLe m, of writing tbeir fundamental law as tbe condition cf allowing them to be an alleged republic. We could not Lave put tbem in control of the whole archipelago without crushing many other tribe, and for the only reason that the Tagals desired to rule ever all and, being armed, were making themselves troublesome. If the United States is to govern the Philippines at all it must be with a free band and onder its own estab lished lines of action. A protectorate experiment woi.Id quickly become a nightmare of conflicticg authority, a hopeless tangle of half-way sover eignty to be settled at last by the law of force. Instead of ordaining something labeled a Tagil republic, with a con stitution shsped by ourse'ves, which the revolted tribe would have re jected in any case, the I' cited States Las pursued a straight road, a policy clearly defined and perfectly intel ligible to every other nation. Tbe sovereignty of tbe Philippines is ours with all responsibilities acknowl edged. Our army and navy are protecting the island, but not on lines laid down by semi-savages or insurrectionary j jntas. Our decr.es re decisive, and not by indirection. Our generals can act without con ferring with a Filipino cabinet. Many who began by calling the policy adopted imperialistic are working over to a sort of middle ground. Democratic leaders can be named wbo want to keep enough of the Philippines to insure our commercial supremacy. Even Mr. Bryan is re. ported to be making concessions to expansion sentiment in the South. He is siid to be willing now "!o Lave a naval base and commercial privileges and to exercise protecto rate functions as regards other nations," and to confer "local sover- eisnly." The Uepublican party is is It j not paltering in this fashion tani'i unflinchingly by ibe f ? ' covereignty. Between this and abandonment there it oolbing but t.

POLYGAMY COSVEMSED. .Seldom Las either bouse of con gress performed an act which has been greeted with more universal ap plause than will that of the refusal of tbe bouse to recognize the eligi bill ty of Brigbam II. Roberts to a seat in that body, as a representative from the state of Utah, says the W. W. Union. By that act it is published to tbe world that no prac- lical polygamic, who lives and acts ) iu ucuiLvt iv iue ias ui uis uuuuirr, can be admitted to a sent in the balls of the national legislature, to assist in moulding the laws for a great people. Mr. Roberts, no doubt, is a con scientious believer that polygamy is justifiable for this is shown in tbe boldness of his persistency in defend ing his position, and in bis advocacy of bis right to represent his Mormon constituents. Yet one cannot believe that be was wholly ignorant of the fact that be was disfranchised by tbe federal law, tbe compact under which tbe stale was admitted, and therefore he was Ineligible to a federal office. It is probable that there were but few dissenting opinions as to the eligibility of Roberts, among the members, but because of the division of sentiment as to the proper method for disposal of the question, raised by the reports of the committee, the number of supporting friends of i Robe its, if any, is unknown.

Warren was not defeated, but he fought for a barren victory, it seems, as he did little more than the ancient hosts wbo marched up tbe bill, and then marched down again. The Boers made it so warm for the English general that be abandoned Spionkop, after capturing it. Kentucky seems upon the verge of civil war, more extensive than any of the feuds since the days of 1861-5. It can hardly be avoided unless Goebel gives np bis position of using bis partisan machinery to oust oilicials, legally elected and seated. The congressional committee of the second district has made a call, throush Chairman McCamanL for a eetH.g PortaD(i on February 1Ct 1900. AGAINST THE LEASING LAW. CoBgreaaman Moody Commuolcatea With Slalbeur Cuuatjr Regarding It. . Resentment against tbe leasing law is becoming stronger as the time for legis lation draws nearer, and the various papers throughout the state are taking i the matter up and expressing their opinions decidedly. The Antelope Her aid says: The Crook Coonty Journal says the Baldwin Sheep A Land Company, of Hay Creek, is unalterably opposed to the Foster leasing bill. Tbia is signifi cant and demonstrates beyond cavil that tbe bill is not of the West, bat is in tbe interest of Eastern land grabbers. When companies of the wealth and ex tent nf the a. S. & L. Co. are opposed to the proposed measure, it occurs to us that it can be of no benefit to smailer industries. In answer to a petition of the Malheur people, Congressman Moody writes: I acknowledge your letter of January 1st, and also the parkage of petitions so numerously signed by the citizens of I VnilV r 11 ntw at m. la.l I... a At 1 ing of public lands. 1 here are nndoubt- are favorably considered. 1 will appr'ecii te u?l!''on or criticisms you and viiixruR ucplrQ 11 lljaae.

' Hugh Gocbi.ay. Mr. Fiord Anawcra. To the Editob: Just a few word;, with your kind per mission, regarding my challenge to Mr. Hugh Gouilay to debate tie money question. It came about in a very pleasant street conversation after a little debate upon tbe question before the Students Literary society, in which we bad participated. I had no idea that the matter would grow to tbe proportion it has. Mr. Gourlay't few remarks be fore the society were tbe strongest, most vigorous and logical presentation of tbe gold standard policy I have ever bad the pleasure to listen to. To me they were an intellectual treat. I only challenged him to a joint discussion because of an abiding faith in the justice of my cause atd for the further reason that there seems to be too studied an anxiety on the part of its opponents to consider the cause of silver "dead and petrified." If Mr. Gonrlay will discuss the que tion that the gjld standard is (or will be) a benefit to the people of the United States, I will g'aJly meet him at such time as may be mutually agreeable. In which event I will do my utmost to give him the historical fact he desires, to gether with -other historical (acts that are absolutely necessary to a fair con sideration of tbe question. If Mr. Gourlay will not debate, is there not in the whole ranks of tbe triumphant gold standard organization of Waco county some one who wiil give a reason for the faith that is within him? In this latter event, I would retire from what may ap pear as a self-constituted champion of the bimetalists of Wasco county to a lare number of whom I am a perfect stranger b.ut will say, in their behalf that from tbeir own ranks they will meet any and all comers, and that tbe matter would be placed in the hands of a proper committee. As to the remarks of Mr. Gourlay con cerning me personally, I desire to say I regard iiiem as extremely unkind and unworthy of the genial, whole-souled fentleman he is, and as I have always round mm. tor tbe nonce I overlook tbem.

Tbe first indication of croup Is boarse ness, and in a child subject to that disease it may betaken as a sure sign of tbe approach of an attack. Following this hoarseness is a peculiar rough cough. If Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is given as soon as tbe child becomes hoarse, or even after the croupy cough appears, it will prevent the attack. It is used in many thousands of homes in this broad land and never disappoints the anzioos mothers. We have yet to learn of a single instance in which It has not proved effectual. No other preparation can show such a record twenty-five years' constant use with, ont a failure. For sale by Blakeley & Houghton. Willing. Hat Heady.
