VHUUKO, DECEMBER ?, MM. Abate v?. Honest CHUdasu The Register, In its able editorials denouncing the United Stateaf term* of Deace as brutal to poor down-trodden ftnnin. for which It hau an abiding eym P*thy, accuse* the Intelligencer of K "blackguarding:" it for Its display of enmity toward our own country by comparing it to the feudal despot* of ancient days. The Intelligencer la wlll& lng to leave to the sober Judgment of its ? readers whether it i ever engages In r:: < "blackguardism" or not. It will compare notes with the Register on tbat (point any day. Our neighbor also takes occasion to. , suggest that this paper should denounce the venerable Senator Hoar, of Massachusetts, for opposing the policy of the I administration regarmg tne ?*niJippinets. ^ The Intelligencer is not engaged in the j I business of condemning leading men of the country for J [' their sincere differences of opinIon, nor for their honest opposition to t governmental policies. Senator Hoar Is ? not the only distinguished Republican t who has expressed himself as opposed to ? the Philippine policy; nor is he, In doing | so. any lees loyal a Republican. There 1 are leading Democrats heartily in line ^ with the President on this question, but { they are none the less faithful Demo- G crats. l I The matter is no more a party issue g I than was the question of Cuban Inter- j l|" ference. Xo fair-minded person will r & fall to concede to any citizen the right f to differ on this important question involving the dlsposoJ of the Philippines. | Senator Hoar, Mr. Carnegie and other j h. men of prominence who are opposing t the policy, are doing eo from their own J |: stand-point of reason and- logic; their d arguments are dignified and based upon I their conception of the right or wrong e i. of the matter, or their belief In the un- a wisdom of the expansion Idea. They 1: draw the line, however, at sickly senti- t 5 ment in1 Spain's behalf. They are not 1 engaged, as Is the Register and a few c ? malicious, narrow-minded partisans, in ? expressing sympathy for Spain, nor are t they denouncing their government as 1 > pursuing a BRUTAL course toward a f country whose centuries of history is r written In the blood of Innocent victims t of despotic rule and barbaric warfare, e any more tban they are charging: false ! motives and Influences against the ad![ ministration. They are not denouncing President McKlnley as a tool of "Wall treet." or as lacking In sincerity, honesty. Integrity and patriotism. These men are not Inclttilg the people against the honor of their country, nor are they appealing to base prejudices. They are-not chronic, cynical, unreasoning, malicious partisans, nor have they ever reflected in any way on the sincerity, the honest intentions and purposes, the Integrity of the men at the head of af. *fairs. It will not do for the Register, which denounces as "hypocritical" the President, and the men of high character who compose the peace commission, to put Itself in the same category with highminded men who, loyal Americans that they are, endorse the splendid conduct of the war, but simply differ as to one point in the policy with reference #. ? what nro hAvA acnulred as a result of that war. t There is a vast difference between vile s partisan netv**paper abuse, which seeks to breed discontent and prejudice among the people against their own government, and honest crlticlwrv "by men of high character and sincere motives. Parkmburg Upholds the Law It is to the credit of the city of Parkersburg and Wood county, as well as to their law-abiding citizens, that a threatened double-lynching did not come off on schedule time Wednesday night. It was largely due to the prompt action of the authorities, including the judge of the criminal court, who addressed the crowd, that a mob of several hundred masked men did not go any farther than to asj^mbto wlrh the evident intention of attacking;" the Jail where was confined two men charged with flendlah crimes. It la hntwd that the Wood county jail 1? strong enough to hold -thestf criminal# l until they can l>e prosecuted ns the law dictates; certainly there Is no doubt that JujHice will ho carried out to ttie letter, i An excitable mob can only bring re- < prosch on x community. The powerful I hHnd of Justice, faithfully us<*d, can j vindicate that community. The cltliens i who found it wifier to disperse than to i carry out their alleged lawless Intentions r dwrve M?mo cr -dlt for th?-lr rober see- \ ond thought. It Ahould never go to the world that one of eh? chief and beat cltie? in Wcit Virginia permitted mob ' law.

The list of i "1 loaiwa of Ufa and propaLy and veaael? pom each day, The full extent of the havoc wrought by the elements will never, perhaps, be known. Here, la the Interior of the country, we can scarcely realize It ail. Dcpcwan Improvement Hon. Chauncay JI. Depew In the senate from New fork will be a credit to that Mate. It will be a departure on the part of The empire state from lu habit lo recent years of sending professional politicians rather than men of merit. Silica Mr, Everts retired to private life New York has not been sending statesmen and men of great intellectual ablll ty. Mr. Depew will prove a credit to the rtate, and command a position' among lia leaders. If he la choeen, u now terns probable, and hie high character, eplenlld mental endowments, eloquence and general high qualities will go tar toward redeeming New. York In the estimation >f the country. Mr. PUtt is showing rare goo? Judgment and an Indication to cater to the beat element In politics by casting his ofluencein behalf of Mr. De$ew. Even the New York World, which Is a bitter >pponent of Piatt and his alleged polltlsal methods, feels moved to commend lim, In this connection, as "growing wiser as he grows older," and admits: "To harmonise the party by recognising the value of Its most Independent and otelleotual elements Is a leadership of a llgher quality than our "bosses' In either party have displayed. Such a new Piatt would be far more dangerous to the Democrats than the old one ever was." The World Isn't usually fair In Its pollical comments, but In this case It has (tumbled upon a magnificent truth. If Quote Accepts. It seems to be & settled fact that the President lias offered the appointment >? ambassador to England to Hon. Joseph H. Choate, oC New York. If Mr. :hoate accepts this high honor the Presdent will -have honored himself and the country in the appointment. This govirnment has never sent abroad a rep retentative better titled for a responsible >osiilon?especially one so Important md delicate as the ambassadorship to he court of St. James. In view of our >resent relationship with Great Britain, ind the need of a representative of great ilplomatlo ability, of strong character, >fculturev of splendid Intellect, and dis- . Ingulehed learning in internallonal aws, no better selection could be made. Mr. Choate's fame In these respects is lot confined to America, His reputa;lon is well known in Europe. It has teen a rule with all our administrations o select from among our best statesmen he representatives to the English court, U1U X i COiUCIll ,11l.i\iutc; , 111 ma Dc?uions, has not departed from the rule. Hr. Hay quickly won the hearts of the British people and the respect and eseem of the foreign diplomats at the ourt. In sending Mr. Choate to take his >lace the President will maintain to a narked degrea his splendid Judgment jeretofore shown In his choice of our epresentatives on the eastern contltent. i The Register inquires why the Intelll- ] renoer did not publish the statement rom Col. Roosevelt, which was in the Issociated Pretw dispatches laat Saturlay. The Register well knows that the 1 ntelligencer does not publish a Sunday 1 dition, and that it to a physical lmpos- 1 IblUty to publish two day* dispatches a one edition; nor is It always expected hat news matters shall appear In full n a Monday paper that were entirely 1 overed twenty-four hours earlier by the 1 lunday press. The readers, of the Inelllgencer, as well aa the Register, (now that the Intelligencer has faith- ' ully published the testimony of wit leases before the board of investigation, J ind the views of officers both against . ind In favor of the war department administration. So do they know that the 'otelUgenoer might call attention to nany Incidents wherein the Register las refrained from usdng testimony favirable to that administration* CoL Roosevelt, In an article In the forth American Review, makes a plea or the reorganization of the per*onn*l ?f the navy, and in behalf of a bill for hat purpose already in Congress. The :oIoneI, whose experience a.*? assistant ecretary of the navy gave him the adrantage to note needed reforms, polnttr mt some changes made necessary by changed conditions. He Is right when je says that 1t is as important to make he personnel which is to handle perfect Ightlng machines as it la to make the nachlnee. He admits that we have a plendld navy but thinks we should not elax our efforts to make it better still, nils opinion coincides with those of our >est naval experts. In view of all tbe "bombastic talk ibout the Democrats being able to elect i United States senator from thle 6tate, n the face of the probability that they vill not, why is it that we do not see Senator Faulkner's name mentioned* by my of the organs? Is the senator ihelved? (Has Colonel McGraw's boom warnped the senator's ambition to suc*ed himself, or is the senator honest nough to admit that a Republican legisature was legally elected and does not teslro to be a party to the count out prolamine? It is announced on high authority that hedissolutlon of the United States of Central America, composed of the re)ublics of that Important portion of the lontinent, has occurred after an exist;nce of but one month. The news will mrprlse nobody. It Is utterly lnjpo*?l?le for these republics to live together is one harmonious whole. There is too nucta Spanish blood In them. Ex-Minister Hnnnln Taylor has some rery extreme views on the "injustice" >f our demands on Spain. Mr. Taylor s nn ex-minister to Spain.

It recalls the new* of Spanlsi victories that were dally given oat In Madrid during the late war, lncludlnj the news that Dewey had been defeated aftxr he bad wiped the Spanish floul from existence.

An Atchison woman, complains that when any of the neighbors' children get sick they send for her to suggest a remedy, but that when they give a party they forget all about her, and invite women who don't know whether a poultice is made of mustard or horse-radish. Ten years of domestic trouble and quarreling In an Atchison family have all been due to the fact that the wife, upon returning from a three months' visit out of town found a hairpin in her husband's room. His conduct had beea faultless before the discovery, but that didn't explain away the hairpin, ind the man has been on the witnessstand every minute of the ten years intervening.
