Senator Hoar has great learning and remarkable powers, and be bas Applied these to an able address in opposition to the retention of the Philippine islands. We have heard the biggest gun which can be fired from that side of the field. His speech turns on a fanciful con struction of the constitution a con struction which never has had appli cation, which was not applied nor sought to be applied by the states men who framed the constitution. Even Jefferson, the extreme exponent of Democratic principles, never . at tempted to put the fanciful construe tion to the constitution which Senator Hoar would now apply. Jefferson was the chief of expansionists. He pushed the flag across the Mississippi, down to the gulf of Mexico, across the great plains to the Rocky moun tains, over their snowy summits, and down their western slopes to the Pacific. In no instance did he con sult the wishes of the inhabitants. At no time were they offered a plebiscite and asked whether it was their pleas ure that the flag should float over their country or be withdrawn. It is no answer to say there were rot so many Indians as there now are Filipinos.' The principle in one case is identical with that in the other. Jefferson was not permitted " to carry out this expansive policy with out stubborn opposition. It was de clared that he was proceeding in "violation of the constitution ; that ex pansion was fraught with peril, and the safe course for the young nation was rather the development of a small and compact empire. However, as a matter of fact, Sena tor Hoar is declaiming against some thing which is not contemplated by the administration nor by the people. He is assuming that the United States is going to rule the Filipinos by force ; is going to uphold in the isl ands a despDtism hateful to the in habitants, and is intending to main tain there indefinitely amiMtary gov ernment. Nothing could be further from the purpose of the American people. The truth is, a large ma jority of the property interests of the islands are anxious that the American standard shall remain. Already it is contemplated that the military force needed for the preservation of law and order shall be made up largely "of natives; and t!ie fullest measure of representative government be award ed which is consistent with the pro tection of life and propert3' and the progress of the islands. There is not the slightest danger of the American people withholding freedom and liberal government from any people. The danger lies rather m the other direction in the probability that we shall try to clothe the Filipinos with the higher functions of citizenship be fore they are capable of their . wise exercise or worthy of the blessings of complete sovereignty. The as sumption that there is danger of the United States forcing wrongs and op pression on the people of the Philip pines is too fanciful for serious con sideration. Spokesman Review. , special session. In a short lime war rants will have to be endorsed "not paid for want of funds." but, if the regular session is not too lavish, these warrants will before long be taken up, on account of the collection of taxes throughout the state. The financial condition of the commonwealth gov eminent is an encouraging one. We believe Oregon is the only state in the union having no interest bearing debt at all.

At the beginning of the Qurrent year there was in the Oregon state treasury a sum total of $763,699.23, of which $191,237.62 belonged to the general fund, the bulk of the balance being money of the irredu cible school fund, principal and in terest. The liabilities of the state were at that time not one cent. The state of Oregon bad no . debt at all. There are no bonds on which to pay interest. The general fund has no doubt by this time become exhaused, or nearly so, on account of payment of curreut expenses and appropria tions made by the legislature at the Office oyer French fc Co.'a Bank "T You well know that a good drng sign is the patronage which is bestowed on the store.
