"The New Idea."
Nelson Dingley—His Bill.
There is a bright and beaming smile upon the usually rugged face jof Mr. Nelson Diugley these days. He hears with delight the music of Dewey's guns at Manilla the smell of powder smoke is an incense unto his nostrils. He glories in the triumph of American arms, and hv is patriotically enthusiastic over all propositions looking to the prosecution of hostilities. For every gun fired, every naval skirmish tends to distract attention from Mr. Dingley's "bill to produce revenue. Ashe justly remarks, "The expenses of war are of an extraordinary nature and must be met by extraordinary means of raising money. It was no ill wind that bore to the honorable Nelson Dingley's ears the clash of resounding arms. It was a zephyr freighted with balm to the troubled soul and carrying away disagreeable niutterings concerning a deficit of 3 10,000,000 per month. Grim visaged war is a white winged dove in the eyes of honorable Nelson.
Equal to an Emergency.
The nation takes oil its hat to the American navy inaugurated by a Democratic secretary of the navy. It may not number the ships that are gathered intc the fleets of England and tho great continental [lowers, but man for man, officer for officer, ship for ship, nothing afloat can equal it. We are not a warlike people. Our ways are those of peace, but there is a satisfaction in the knowledge that when tho crisis comes we are not unequal to maintaining ourselves like men.—Des Momcs Leader.

An Interesting Paper Regarding a Perti* neut Question by Professor Woolaey. Precedents From the Mexican War A 5-olemn Look Ahead.
Tlfe following i.s part of a paper ou the present war read the other night before the Congregational club of Hertford, by Theodore S. Woolsey, professor of international law at Yale university, which refers to tli3 disposition of the Philippines:
One more inquiry, which is likely to be a practical one. Suppose Manilla and Puerto Rioo to be captured and occupied by our forces. The usual rules for the government of occupied territory would presumably be put in force. These are practically the local laws and usages under the local authorities and judges, but sanctioned and backed by martial law. Occupation does not vest sovereignty in the occupant. Sovereignty is in suspense, as it were, until decided by the terms of peace. Such is the general scheme. But at Manilla what duties would we levy, and for whose benefit would they be spent? We have a precedent to guide us on this point, I which may bo found in two decisions' of the supreme court, the cases arising during the Mexican war: Fleming ver-' Bus Page, Howard, IX, 603 Cross ver-1 sus Harrison, Howard, XVI, 164. The law is well stated by Dana in his edi-' tion of Wheaton (note 162, page 421), from which I quote: "During the Mexican war, certain'
ports of the country which were in the1

State61

If the result of the war is to leave the I United States in possession of various Spanish colonies, what shall lie done with them? The pressure to retain them will be fctrcng. as coaling stations, as indemnity, us an act of humanity giving r. fuge to tho victims of Spanish 1 misrule, as an act of policy launching this country upon a new career. With Hawaii annexed, with Puerto Rico and the Philippines conquered, with coaling stations galore, with a Nicaragua canal, a navy suited to our ambitious and resources, an army large enough for foreign service and a civil service adapted to colonial war, we should be ready pose as a
world power, though rather
late in the field. Is it a brilliant programme? Is it
is the best and
wisest and safest policy for today. Whether this is to be forward and aggressive or devoted to internal development and conservative every citizen must decide for himself. If he wishes an election to turn on tho claim to a slice of China or the support of a candidate to the presidency in Mexico, our demagogues will not deny him. Nothing could be more convenient for the dodging of troublesome issues, nothing! more alluring than to play on the pseudo patriotic chord. There is danger in our strength.
The plainest of common sense is a better guide than the fervor of sentimentalism or the ambition of the jin-
gofis. Of one thing, however, let us make' sure, that our future shall be deter- 1 mined by us and not for ns. Our isolation allows ns independent action. And if a

A Republican oi'fjau presumes to lecture Democrats in congress because they do not acquiesce without a word in every provision of the war ways and means bill framed by the Republicans of the woys and means committee. Speaking especially of Democratic senators, the organ says: "There should be no room in the hearts of those senators at this time for any but patriotic sentiments. Patriotism should expel partisanship till the war is over at least." Republicans are in no position to lecture the Democrats on this subject The Republican members of the house committee got together and concocted their ways and means bill in secret, says the Chicago Chronicle. They did not invite the Democratic members to join them in laying aside all party considerations and framing a nonpartisan bill. Their patriotism did &ot expel their partyism.
The fact that they proceeded in secret without inviting Democratic co-opera-te on proved that they put party before country or that they sought to place the Republican politicians before/the coun-

Mr. Dana also cites the case of Castine, held by a British force during the war of 1812. Our supreme court denied that it cqjild bo considered a part of the United States during such occupation within the meaning of the revenue laws, or that duties upon goods then imported could bo afterward collected.
If wc occupy Manilla, then, the Dingley tariff is not ipso facto applicable, though legislation could makes it so. The probability is, however, following modern usage, that the Spanish tariff would be enforced and the proceeds, with the other taxes, be used for the administration of the islands. It would be legal to cover a balance into our treasury, le-! gal, but highly impolitic, for it is just that sort of administration which is! costing Spain her colonies. Dana wrote 30 years ago. The theory perhaps has not changed since then, but the usage has hccomc everywhere recognized, that occunied territory does not belong to the temporary conqueror. His will is its law. it is true, but its law expressed in the language of the law already existing. He collects taxes, but through the usual local agencies if they are available and for the local benefit. He is trustee 111 short, not bandit.

shown at any
Democrat on its merits. Every suggestion offered by a Democrat, no matter how good, was doomed in advance. It was to be voted down merely because it was Democratic and because the measure must bo wholly Republican. No more offensive programme of partyism could have been framed, and the measure itself was partyism iu character.
At first two purely revenue duties were proposed. That looked as though for once favoritism to protectees was to give place to considerations of revenue of a grave emergency. But shortly these duties were abandoned, and most objectionable taxes were substituted for them. This was done at tho behest of tho protected interests, who demanded that there should be no recognition in the bill of revenue duties. It was a purely partisan movo by politicians who depend for success upon tho contributions of the tariff fattened classes.
One of the taxes substituted for tho abandoned revenue duties was a tonnage tax, or an increase in this tax from 3 to 30 cents per ton. This again was offensively partisan. It was in accordance with the Republican assumption that foreign commerce is something to bo assailed mercilessly at every point. This was not only a partisan move, but an
1
extremely foolish one just at this time, because it would afloat tho shipping of Great Britain more injuriously than that of any other country, and Great I Britan is about the only ri al friend we I have 111 Euro]ie just now. So foolish is it that the proposal to abandon the foolisli and ofiensivc tax is understood to
have been made by tho Republicans of the senate ihuuico committee, who are not so blindly partisan as to deliberately invito the ill will of British shipping I and commercial interests at so critical 11 time. I.11 view of the partisan course pursued by the Republicans in this matter from the start, tho impudenco of a party organ in lecturing the Democrats 011 their partisanship approaches the sublime. Democratic criticism may not have been tho wisest possible, but it was deliberately provoked by the Republicans, who now call it unpatriotic not to accept their own party measure without a word of objection.
a
wise one? Will these new activities help in the solution of the old problems, a stable currency, a
compromise tariff,
a
reformed public service? Is it the true mission of a people which is working out the problem of self government to run off into colonial aggrandizement? To me the prospect is not reassuring. We seem to have come to tho parting of the ways. There need be no superstitious rcvereme for the policy of our early days as outlined iu the noble words of Washington's farewell address. What we must judge of
Father Time's scythe is a weapon that no man can escape. Sooner or later it must a a low.
With premature death it is different. Nature intended that every man should live a long: and useful life, and die a
fe
eaceful, paina Men defeat the intention of
Providence by the manner in
live, their disregard of the laws of health and their utter failure to protect health when it ia threatened and restore it when it is lost. The most common result of neglect of health is that dread disease, consumption. Not many years ago it was considered incurable. Now it is known that Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery will cure 98 per cent, of all cases if taken in time. That is its record during a period of thirty years. Many of the thankful patients have permitted their names, experiences and photographs to be reproduced in Dr. Pierce's Common Sense Medical Adviser. Any sufferer who wishes to investigate these cases may secure a copy of this book free, by sending 21 one-cent stamps to cover cost of mailing only, \o the World's Dispensary Medical Association, Buffalo, N. Y., and then write to the patients themselves. In consulting Dr. R. V. Pierce by letter, the sufferpr consults a skillful specialist who for thirty years has been chief consulting physician to the great Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo,
N. Y. With the assistance of a staff of able physicians, he has successfully treated tens of thousands of cases of bronchial, throat and lung affections. He will cheerfully answer letters from all sufferers, without charge. Address the Doctor as above. 'I bad bronchitis for eighteen years and I wma treated by three physician*, but all fiiled." writes David Wartzenlufl, Esq., ef Shoemakererille, Berks Co., Pa.
