NATIONAL POLITICS INVOLVED.
Do national poll tics enter into the
municipal campaign? Assuredly they
do. The reasons are not far to seek;
they are not difficult to understand.
The Democratic party stands at pres
ent opposed to the Administration. It
is opposed to the war in the Philip
pines. Through its chief mouthpiece
it has said that operations ought to
cease and peace be secured by com
promise with insurrectionists. It has
declared against holding fast under
compact to which the treaty with
Spain bound us.
It Is opposed .to every influence that
has given the nation a degree of pros
perity it has not enjoyed in forty
years. It is doing battle every hour
against the policy of the Administra
tion that has set every wheel of indus
try turning, loaded our ships to the
gunwales with the exports of the coun
try, filled the store houses of commerce
■with the busiest throng they have
known in i half a century, and has de
veloped the most remarkable traffic
business over lines of land and water
carriage! ever known to the nation.
It is battling against and lampoon
ing an. Administration that has carried
to a successful conclusion a war of
humanity, and lifted thereby the na
tion- to a rank and level In the world'
it never before occupied. It is fight
ing with cowardly tactics and methods
the expansion of the national territory
and influence accomplished under the
administration, approved
by Congress of the nation and the voice
of all the civilized world, and which
promises for the American republic a
position in the Orient that is its by
right and. destiny. .
Therefore, when an organized branch
of that opposing party is able to
achieve* a victory on even local issues
it is heralded abroad throughout the
land as an Administration defeat and
a rebuke to the National Government.
If the Capital City of California, should
go Democratic next week, the news will
be heralded far and wide as an anti
expansion victory, a triumph for Mr.'
Bryan and the Chicago platform, and
the result will.be to give aid and en
couragement to the insurrectionists in
the field against .American arms and
authority.
This idea is laughed at; it is car
tooned in the San Francisco press; it
is sneered at by the proponents of
the opposition ticket. It is declared to
be silly, the expression of idiocy and
the sentiment of ignorance. Neverthe
less it is solemn truth. California is
more deeply concerned over the out
coma of the insurrection in Luzon than
any other State of the Union. The re
tention of the Philippines enwraps her
best interests and tells for her rapid
development and increasing wealth and
prosperity.
Let it go abroad that the Capital City
of California votes for the party
Aguinaldo has declared in official pro
clamation to be his aid and ally, and
the insurrectionists in Luzon will re
ceive distinct aid and comfort, and our
soldiers win be correspondingly discour
aged and cowed. That is simple truth;
a truth every one familiar with tha
situation must realize to be forcible.
Democracy stands to-day for Aguin
aldoism, Atkinsonlsm and Bryanism;
every election that goas Democratic
from this to the end, will involve the
issue between those isms and all that
the .Republican party stands for.
Some time ago it was Justly com
plained that if Aguinaldo read the Ma
nila papers diligently he knew just
where our troops were located; just
what movements were in contempla
tion; what were our military supplies';
where they were stored and when they
were shipped,into the interior, etc. This
was true. The Manila papers were
dally bulletins of all military move
ments. The Government has now ap
plied the rule of censorship to such pa
pers, that the enemy may not in the
future learn of the disposition of our
forces on our military intentions gener
ally. Here, then, there is opportunity
for another howl about the liberty of
the press and the rights of .newspaper
men. We can take a lesson in this
matter of censorship from our English
coosins. When they went to war with
the Boers the other day they at once
established the most arbitrary censor
ship over all publications, telegraphic
messages, correspondence, etc., that
would give publicity in any raspect to
military movements. Even the war
correspondents wore sent to the rear
and told to cool their heels at consid
erable distance from the scenes of op
erations. That th : s is right procedure
there can he no doubt whatever. That
it is really merciful is undoubted B-Iso,
because it tends to shorten lhe war and
tr:us lessen the loss of life. Whereas if
movements were made public the en
emy would have Knowledge which
would be used to the disadvantage of
English arms. Thus the war would be
extended and the battles be all the
more bloody. We may expect, however,
that a howl will go up from Manila
over the new order issued there. But
It is a proper one and the sensible
American will not dispute its rightful
ness.
Lipton is a far more reasonable man
than those sentimentalists who still
plead that the breaking down of the
Shamrock's topmast was an accident
that ought to give the Shamrock a new
trial. The fact is that It was no ac
cident, and Lipton knowing that, de-
Clares that he is satisfied that he was
fairly beaten; that the Columbia proved
herself the better boat, and that he will
at once proceed to build another yacht
and try it again. To increase the sail
capacity of his boa* Lipton extended
her fin keel to twenty-two feet'below
the water line. Thus giving his yacht
great water hold below, he was able
to stretch his spar 175 feet aloft The
Columbia, however, has but nineteen
feet of fin keel, and spar night consid
erably less than in the case of the
Shamrock Lipton made a mistake,
then, about the enormous leverage of
his lower ballast, and concerning the
capacity of the Shamrock to carry
aloft. The result was his topmast went
by the board. As the "Record-Union"
has before pointed out, what happened
was to have been expected. It was
not therefore an accident. Nor does
Lipton view it as other than a failure
of Judgment; therefore he frankly says
we had the better boat and that he was
fairly outsailed. Let those magnani
mous people who are still so sympath
etic for the Lipton craft and its owner,
reserve their tears. He has no com
plaint—and he ought to know.
THE WATER INQUIRY AND THE
SIXTH WARD.
It is notable that so far as investiga
tion has proceeded In the matter of a
new water supply for the city, that the
claims made for the east side subter
ranean system are steadily being veri
fied. Certainly the contention of this
paper has been fully Justified, namely,
that the east side system is worthy of
thorough investigation; that there is
enough known favorably concerning ii
to justify the demand tha*,it have sys
tematic and thorough examination and
"a fair test. Under test that system
must stand or fall, just as must any
other.
It is not at all creditable to this
people, however, that there should have
developed in our midst a spirit of oppo
sition that proposed fo deny to the sub
terranean system even so much as a
partial inquiry. It was proposed to
put it aside upon the speculations of
so-called scientists. It was proposed to
dispose of it out of hand upon the
opinion of at least one member of the
Board of Trustees, that much of tha.
opinion of expert Hering was "not
worth 15 cents." It was proposed, and
even, since inquiry has been entered
upon, it has been demanded that the
city abandon tests as to capacity, if
preliminary examination shall show
that the source cannot now be accur
ately ascertained.
In short, there has been a constant,
bitter, prejudiced and ignorant oppo
sition to ascertaining the truth, what
ever it may be regarding the east side
system. The head and front of that
opposition has come from the member
from the Sixth Ward, a ward that once
• voted overwhelmingly in favor of test
ing the supply and for clear, pure
water. Yet Mr. Devine has the assur
ance to ask the voters of the war<4 to
approve his course of unfairness, pre
judice and prejudgment, by re-electing
him to a Trusteeship. Can the voters
of the Sixth Ward afford to do this
thing;? Will they offend intelligence
and approve intolerance by sending
this man of vain theories and many
"isms" back to a seat in the Board of
Trustees? Do they realize that by
electing him again they will throw a
serious obstacle in the way of better
ment of the water supply of the city,
an obstacle to thorough and scientific
inquiry and test? We cannot think
that the voters of the Sixth will prove
so recreant to their Own interests and
the good of the whole community as to
reseat Devine, the man of erratic ideas,
vain theories and stubborn opposition
to all things which do not originate
with him, and are not born of his fan
ciful and retrogressive*,notions.
ANOTHER DEMOCRATIC EXPAN
SIONIST.
United States Senator McLaurln of
South Carolina, a Democrat, has writ
ten a letter favoring retention of the
Philippines, and this the "Courier-
Journal" of Louisville. Democratic,
publishes with commendation.
The Senator says that he has honest
ly and dilligently studied the whole
question and has come to his Judgment
slowly. He is convinced that retention
of the Philippines puts the key of the
open door policy in our hands. The
800 miles of the Philippine coast com
mands the coast of Asia Manila is
in the east the center of ocean traffic—
the only point where foreign nations
could have obtained commercial sta
tions without a struggle.
He adds that commercial expansion,
with preservation of trade advantages.,
is the goal of all civilized nations.
Providentially the Philippines have
been thrown into our hands, and it
would be folly to part with them. The
Senator's reasoning, his sharp criticism
of the so-called "anti-imperialists" and
the "Courier-Journal's" remarks upon
the letter of the Senator, will be found
excellent reading, and for that pur
pose we reproduce them in full in an
other column.
The official reports from Negros in
i the Philippine Islands of this morn
! ing under signature of General Hughes
iis to the effect that Negros is
in a better state of lawful submission
now than for twenty years. The plant
ers are no longer in danger. At the
recent election over 5,000 votes were
cast, and the new temporary govern
ment was installed in peace and good
will. So here ia a teeming population
not in arms against us, but in acqui
escence with our occupation pursuing
the arts of peace and making no trou
ble for us. Will the anti-expansionists
insist that Aguinaldo and his band rep
resent these people? How about the
consent of the governed in this case?
How about the consent of the governed
in several southern islands where our
authority is respected by the millions
of natives and no insurrection Is pro
moted against us, disturbances being
confined to raids by predatory bands of
robbers'' ,

State mad Coast Opinions on Sub

Interest.
Marysville Appeal: One of the most
irritating and unnatural exhibitions of
copperheadism on record was manifest
ed in the House of Commons the other
day, when the official announcement of
brave General Symons' death was
made. The entire assemblage, when
the distressing news was told, arose
and uncovered out of respect to the
memory of the gallant officer, except
the "irreconcilables"—those miserable
beings of Atkinsonian natures—who
even in the presence of death failed to
realize their own immense insignifi
cance. And, moreover, they lacked the
discernment to see that General
Symons died doing his duty, no matter
how unjust the position of the English
Government may be—a Government
that he had sworn to defend and obej-.
WHAT WE GIVE AWAY.
Los Angeles Express: Few people
have any conception of the enormous
outlay of money earned in this country
and spent by our. leisure and traveling
classes in Europe each year. It is so
big that it would probably alarm the
people of the country if they saw it
bunched, but it has been going on for
years, and every twelve months adds
to the grand sum total.
This has been done for years in face
of the fact that in the United States
there is more to see than in any other
quarter of the globe, and the only won
der is that Americans, as soon as they
come into money, will immedlately
chase across the ocean to make a tour
of the Old World before they have the
faintest conception of the natural
beauties of their own country, and
whose ignorance of America makes
them the laughing stock of continental
Europe.
But all of this is to be changed, if it
can be done. It is now proposed, ac
cording to a chief of one of the Treas
ury Bureaus in Washinlgton, to com
pile an accurate set of statistics upon
this subject. Several years ago such
an effort was made, but it was not car
ried out as thoroughly as it should have
been. Even then, however, the total
ran up to over $230,000,000, before the
work was abandoned. It is promised
now that the forthcoming investiga
tion will be very thorough, including,
as It will, data from steamships, rail
roads, custom houses. Consular esti
mates, reports of special foreign agents,
etc. Such statistics can not fail to
have great interest and value to stu
dents of political economy and, espec
ially, to all interested in the problems
of the distribution of taxation.
BRYAN AND THE PHILIPPINE
QUESTION.
San Jose Mercury: Of all the men
who from the foundation of the Gov
ernment until now have assumed a
large relationship to American af
fairs, Mr. Bryan is the least informed
and the least thoughtful. "I don't
favor the withdrawal of our troops
from the Philippines," he said at Dcs
Moines, la "What Ido believe and
have repeatedly announced is that we
should at once declare our purpose in
unequivocal terms, so positive that the
Filipinos cannot doubt it, to grant
them full and complete independence
the moment they have established a
stable government." First, Mr. Bryan
ought to know that we are not fighting
the Filipino people but a conspiracy of
professional revolutionists backed by
one of the Filipino tribes; that to rec
ognize this revolutionary organization
and its followers—the Tagalos—and to
turn over the islands to them would be
to abandon the main body of the Fili
pino people to their ruthless enemies.
How, pray, is it to be determined when
a "stable" government has been "es
tablished" excepting by a period of
American occupation under conditions
of peace? Who has ever doubted that
the Filipinos would have self-govern
ment just as soon as they are capable
of managing it?
What more could possibly be prom
ised than what was promlshed in the
manifesto of the Philippine Commis
sion in April last That manifesto, be
it remembered, declared the general
American purpose to be: (1) The su
premacy of -the United States; (2) the
most ample liberty and self-govern
ment reconcilable With a wise, just,
stable and effective and economical
administration of public affairs, and
compatible with the sovereign and In
ternational rights and responsibilities
of the United States; (3) a guarantee
of full civil rights to the Filipinos; (4)
the welfare and advancement of the
island people; (5) and honest and effi
cient civil service, with native officials
where practicable; (6) taxation on an
economical basis with the application
of local funds to local purposes; (7)
pure administration of justice; (8) the
promotion of public works; (9) the pro
motion of agriculture, industry and
trade; (10) promotion of general edu
cation, and (11) the rooting out of the
Spanish system of official corruption.
This Is the scheme laid before the
Philippine people by official authority
and under the approval of the Presi
dent. It promises all the rights, all
the independence enjoyed by the peo
ple of any American territory. Would
Mr. Bryan promise more than this?
COMING COMFORT.
Santa Cruz Sentinel: From an investi
gation of new patents and patent ap
plications at Washington, as reported
by exchanges, it is evident the invent
ors are turning largely to the attractive
field of effort found in devices for tak
ing the place of ice. So successful are
some of these that enthusiastic pro
moters already predict the passing of
the iceman. Devices for producing ar
tificial cold are multiplying with great
rapidity, and while some of these are
of but limited and costly utility, others
give promise of being able to meet com
mon wants and necessities in the heated
season. Even at present large business
concerns have almost abandoned the
use of ice for ammonia gas and other
chemical devices, and it is predicted
that before long it will be possible to
moderate the heat of summer Just as
rapidly as the cold winter is now reg- =
ulated in houses by steam heat. In
other words, that cold may be turned
on at pleasure and a uniform "tempera
ture be maintained in city dwellings
all the year. As yet, however, these
glittering and pleasant promises are
not In the way of immediate fulfill
ment.

DEMOCRATIC EXPANSIONIST.
What the Philippines Trade Means
to the South.
(From the Louisville Courier-Journal.)
Another Democratic United States
Senator has come out flatly for expan
sion and the retention of the Philip
pines.
Senator McLaurin of South Carolina
has written a letter, in which he says
that at the time of our acquisition of
the Philippines lie "knew nothing about
the new questions suddenly projected
by this unexpected event upon the at
tention and consideration of the Amer
ican people," but that since then he has
"honestly and earnestly studied them,"
so that he might act in his official ca
pacity "for the best interests of the
country."
He says that our victory at Manila
placed the key of the Eastern "open
door" policy in the hands, of the United
States.
"The archipelago of the Philippines
lies along the coast of Asia for 800
miles and commands it. Manila is the
point In the East which is the center
of ocean traffic. It is the only point
where foreign nations could have ob
tained commercial stations without a
struggle. In the vicissitudes and good
fortune of a war with Spain and with
out any intention of doing so, the
United States has acquired the posses
sion of the Philippines, which gives to
her paramount political and commer
cial advantages.
"My Judgment is that the control of
them, or at least some portions, is the
only safeguard for our trade interests
in the East. The abandonment of them
means the ' dismemberment of China,
its partition among the European Pow
ers and the inevitable loss of our China
trade.
"At present Hongkong, under British
influence, is the great distributing point
of the Orient. Manila, under American
influence, -will occupy a better strategic
and geographical position, and should
become a commercial center of that
portion of the world.
"Commercial supremacy is the goal of
every civilized nation. It is only at
tained through commercial progress
and commercial expansion. In this
great battle among the nations, without
designs of our own, while they were
haggling among themselves, Dewey
sails into Manila Bay, and we find
foothold within two days' journey ot
this land of consumers, where half of
the population of the world is congre
gated within an area no larger than the
United States."
He does not sugar-coat his words
when he comes to speak of the politi
cians who have started off full cry on
the anise-seed trail of "Imperialism."
"There is much political rot," be says,
"in the constant parading of the term
'imperialism.* It is a misnomer, in
tended to confuse and deceive. » » »
I think the dictates of common sense
will govern the American people, and
the ghost, 'imperialism,' sprung for po
litical effect, will not prevent them
gathering the full fruits of the victory
so easily won and treading the path
so plainly blazed out by an overruling
Providence."
As the "Courier-Journal" has pointed
out, Senator McLaurin finds thsyt ex
pansion will benefit especially the
South. He adds:
"It will be observed, therefore, that
the Philippine question involves both
political and commercial consequences.
Upon its settlement, in my judgment,
depends the future welfare of our peo.
pie in maintaining equality of oppor
tunity in the Eastern markets. A mere
superficial view w r ill not reveal its
transcendent importance.
"To the Southern people it is fraught
with momentous consequences. Cotton
manufacturing in the South has grown
in a few years with phenomenal ra
pidity. Millions of dollars are now in
vested in malls. The products of these
have found remunerative markets in
China and other countries in the East,
our cotton goods being peculiarly
adapted for clothing the teeming mill
ions of that warm climate. Their trade
is the hope of this great manufacturing
industry of the South. If it is cut off
by other nations, not only the manu
facturer, but the producer of raw cot
ton, will suffer.
"The present advance in spot cotton
which our planters are enjoying is
largely due to the mills of the South.
They have forced the local markets
above New York. With active compe
tition in local markets, Liverpool and
New York exchanges no longer arbi
trarily fix the price of raw cotton. Can
the Southern people afford to sacrifice
their commercial and Industrial inter
ests for mere political sentiment?"
Senator McLaurin concludes by ex
pressing his purpose to govern his
course on this question in accordance
with the interests of his constituents,
without any regard to the antics ot
those short-sighted leaders and would
be leaders who are trying to make po
litical capital out of it in their own be
half. In that respect he will stand
with such able Democratic colleagues
in the Senate as Morgan and Lindsay
and with a great majority of theAher
lcan people of all parties.
Heroic Treatment for Drunkenness.
All last week the Indians on the
Jackson County Reservation engaged in
their annual green corn dance, a cere
monial that is religious in its char
acter. Speaking of the dance, the Hor
ton "Headlight" says: "These dances
comprise the religion of the Indian. In
them he sees a future existence and a
brighter hereafter on the happy hunt
ing grounds. They look upon these
