islands to govern them against their
will,
"I would reject a cession of sover-
eignty which implies that sovereignty
may be bought and sold and delivered
j without the consent of the people.
"I would require all foreign govern-
ments to keep out of these islands.
"I would offer to the people of the
Philippines our help in maintaining order
until they have a reasonable opportunity
to establish a government of their own,
"I would ijjd them by advice if they
desire it, to set up a free and independ-
ent government.
"I would invito all the great powers of
Europe to unite in an agreement tliat
that independence shall not be interfered
with.
"I would declare that the United
States will enforce the same doctrine as
applicable to the Philippines that we
declared as to Mexico and Hay ti and the
South Amerioan republics.
"I would then, in a not distant future,
leave them to work out their salvation,
as every nation on earth, from the be-
ginning of time, has wrought out its own

SCORED BY HOAR.
McXinlay \-s Filipino Policy De-
nounced. Defeat Predicted
For the Republican
Party.
| \iast Monday was one of the most In*
: teresting days in th i senate this session.
the occasion being the delivery c f Sena-
i tor Iloar'o addrtsa on tho Philippine
question.
Mr. Hoar's voslti m upon the subject
was well understood, but it was known,
too, that the speech was to bo one of the
greatest Mr. Hoar ever delivered, from
his point of view, the interest in the ut-
terance was intensified.
Mr. Hoar took for his text the resolu-
tion of Mr. .Bcveri lge of ludiaua, de-
claring that the Philippine islands are
territory belonging to the United States
Vl that the United States government
just govern the archipelago. Mr. Hoar
poke with deliberation, out scarcely
^ith his usual forcefulncss. He reques-
ted his colleagues uot to interrupt him
ji the course of his speech, indicating
at the state of his health rendered it
"undesirable that he should enter into a
running debate.
Mr. Hoar began his address by speak-
ing of the prosperous condition of the
American people at the cloee of the war
Wi:U Spain. He told of the glory of
Ht'uat conflict and of a victory in the in-
terest of liberty,
i "The American people, so far as I
I know," he continued "were all agreed
| that there victory brought with it the
I responsibility i f protecting the liberated
| peoples from the cupidity of any other
power until tliey could establish their
honor. I stand here today to plead with
you not no abandon the principles that
have brought those things to pass. I
implore you to keep to the policy that
has made the couutry great; that hi s
made the republican party great; that
has maile the president great.
"If, when we made the treaty of peace
we had adhered to the purpose we de-
clared when we declared war; if we had
dealt with the Philippine islands as \vc
had promised to deal, have dealt and ex-
pect to deal with Cuba, the country
would have escaped the loss of 0,000
brave soldiers, other thousands of i
wrecked and shattered lives, the sick-! " fixP'"SK"' as '1(i Sr
ncss of many more, the expenditure of 'ra' J yjul" """ a strong rr.
ty to be found in the declaration of in-
dependence for expansion, Mr. Honr de-
clared:
THE EXPANSION OF AARON Bl ltll.
"There ia expansion enough in it, but
it is the expansion of freedom a'jd not of
despotism; of life, not of death. Never
was such growth in all liumai. iiistory
as that from the seed Thomas
planted. It has covered the c

Europe. It is the expansion of
It differs from your tinsel, p
hundreds of millions, and, what is far
worse than all, the trampling under
foot of its cherished ideals.
"I believe uot ouly that perseverance
in the present policy will be the abandon-
ment ot the principles upon which our
government is founded; that it will
change our republic into an empire, that
our methods of legislation, diplomacy,
of administration must hereafter be
those which belong to empires, and not
those which belong to republics, but I
b lieve persistence in this attempt
will result in the defeut and overthrow
of the republican party."
Touching upon tho constitutionality
of the question at issue, Mr. Hoar said;
"I hold that this acquisition of terri-
tory, holding and governing, can be only
a means for a constitutional end. And
I maintain that you can no more hold
and govern territory than you can hold
and manage cannon or ileets for any
other than a constitutional end."
Following this, Mr. Hoar traversed
the constitutional and international Held
of the Philippine controversy, covering
much of the same ground he and others
have covered heretofore Ia the pending
own independence in freedom and in discussion. Adverting to the authori-

"In every accession of territory to this
country ever mRde we recogn; d fully
the doctrine of consent of the governed
and the doctrine that territory so ac-
quired must be held to be made into
states.
"You have tried governing men of
other races than your own at home lor
a hundred years. You have dealt with
the Indian, you have dealt with the
negro, close at hand, knowing all about
them. I suppose you feel encouragcd
by your success. There are ten million
more, 7,000 miles away, of whom you
know nothing. You go forth jauntily
and boastingly, as Louis Napoleon went
to meet his doom at Sedan."
Mr. Hoar discussed at great length
the Filipino rebellion and the
causes which, in his opinion, led up to
it. He made an earnest and vigorous
defense of the Filipinos, especially of
Aguinaldo, who, he declared, was brave,
honc.it and patriotic, In the course of
his eulogy of Aguinaldo, he said: "He
deserves to bo remembered with that
small band who have given life and
everything dearer than life to their
country in a losing cause.
SO MUCH FOB AGUINALDO.
He shall live with Kossuth, with Oom
Paul, with Joubert, with Eminett, with
Egmont and Horn, with Nathan Hale,
with Warren, with all the great martyrs
of history, whose blood is the seed of
the church of liberty."
Mr. Hoar maintained his weU known
position that the Filipinos had achieved
their independence, that the United
States had made them its allies and was
bound to recognize their independence,
and that they had proved themselves
fit for surh independence and capable of
self-government. As one bit of proof
of their statecraft, lie declared; "The
state papers of Aguinaldo, the discussion
of the laws of nations by his 'attorney
general, the masterly appeal of Mahini,
are products of the Asiatic mind. They
are not unworthy of the Asiatic mind,
the vehicle through which came us the
Scriptures of the Old and New Testa-
ment, the poetry of David, the eloquence
of Isaiah, the wisdom of Solomon, the
profound philosophy of Paul." The
senator presented an elaborate defense
of the Filipinos against the charge that
they were responsible for the present
war, fully justifying their action in
resisting tho American forces.
As to what be would dc with the
Philippines Mr. Hoar **'■!. , would
To the Farmers of Oklahoma
Territory.
I desire to call your attention to "The
Farmers Mutual Hall Association, To-
peka, Kansas."
This company has not complied with
any of the insurance lawB of the territory
of Oklahoma and has no authority to do
insurance business of any kind in this
territory. I regret to say, this company
is deliberately and purposely violating
the laws of this territory every time it
issues a policy therein. It is simply
imposing upon the farmers of this terri-
tory. No farmer who insures with this
company can collect a cent from the
oompany. no matter what loss he
suffers.
The couunty attorney of cach county
has been requested to bring suit against
the company and each of its agents
doing business in the county to recover
the penalty provided under the insurance
laws of this territory. Each county
attorney is also requested to commence
proceedings in the name of the territory
to enjoin the company and its agents
from doing business in the territory.
If a farmer signs a negotiable note
for the premium on said insurance, such
note will bo transferred at once and will
be collectable in the hands of an iuno-
cent purchaser, at any time within the
statute of limitation, while the maker of
the note cannot collect a cent on any
loss he suffers.
This notice and warning is given for
the protection of the farmers of the
territory and every farmer having
notic. of any insurance by any person
as agent of said company or any attempt
agains' loss is reuuested to promptly
notify 'lie county attorney of the county
in which he resides.

Attorney General.

Weekly Crop Bulletin.
Oklahoma City, Okla. April 10, 1900.
The week opened clear ahd warm, but
this condition was succeeded on Tuesday
by hsavy to moderate rains, and Tues-
day night by snow and eleet. Showers
fell on the 12th and 11th. Heavy frosts
occurred on tho morning of the 12th
and lilth, with ice formiugou the 1'i.th.
As a whole the week was detrimental
to the fruit, and growth of early corn
and vegetables, the ground being too
cold for proper germination of the plan-
ted orops.
Temperatures ranged over the eastern
.ivisiou from 83 degrees to 2'J degrees;
over the central division from 8!i degrees
to 81 degrees, and over the western di-
vine >n from 811 to 29 decrees.
( i ass generally has benefited with all
: her crops, from the increased moisture
in the ground, ind is in a vigorous con-
dition except over some localities where
itbackward from the effects of the
week's cold weather.
Early planted potatoes and garden
vegetables are up and beiug cultivated;
the frost nipped the tender vegetables
to the ground.
Corn planting is almost completed
over the entire section: on the low lauds
much was cut down by frost and some
will liavo to be replanted; the damage
however was not serious.
Cotton planting has been in progress
over some counties, and preparation of
ground over all, with the increased acre-
age noted.
Considerable damage was done to early
peaches, apricots and plums by frost,
out generally fruit was uninjured, and
prospects continue favorable for a large
yield of all varieties.
Pasture is now in good condition, and
stock is out nnd doing well.
Ohio's Antl-Lynoh Law Good.
Columbus, 0.. April IS—The supreme
court today declared the anti-lynchiug
law constitutional. The law provides
that the heirs of any person who is
lynched may collect 85.000 from the
commissioners in the county in which
the affair occurs. The decision was
rendered in the caseB of Cick Mitchell,
hanged by a mob at Urbaua, and J. W.
Caldwell, who was shot and beaten by
strikers at Cleveland.

Declamatory Contest.
The county declamatt ry contest at the
Christian church last Friday evening
drew a crowded house despite the fact
that the price of admission had been
fixed at 25 and 15 cents in the hope of

with one of her delightful piano solos.

rendered and elicited rounds of applause.
Ruth Temming and Fannie Flltsch
favorej the audience with an instru-
mental duet. Charlie Elliott, tho little
boy who captured his hearers last year
and won a prize, recited "The Pro-
gressive Age" in his telling way and was
followed by Effle Cloyd of Dist. 129, in
"Tho Legend of liregenz," Ruby Mc-
Cormick of the Chandler school gave
"College Oil Cans," excelling herself.
"An' So Was I" by Floyd Blackwell
of Dist. 27, and "A Dream of Marble
Halls" by Benton Parker of Dist. 108
were both good.
Tho primary department of the Chand-
ler school went through an umbrella
drill in the cute way that little lots have
of doing things while the judges were
arriving at their decision which awarded
the premiums as follows; Ruby Mc-
Cormick, first; Clarice Bpringer, second:
Florence Bishop, third. W. U. Hoover
of Chandler, Miss Eva Ili st tier of
Wellston, and Miss Mary White of
Arlington, acted as judges.
The program throughout was good,
showing a decided improvement over
last year and the interest shown must
have been most gratifying to Superin-
tendent Johnson who did a good thing
when he instituted these conteBts.
