TtiURSDAY. FEBRUARY 11. 1904. An interesting feature of the final report of William H. Taft a* Gorernor of the Philippines la the statement that one of the serious obstacles to good go» ernment in the islands has b«pn th« presence oj numerous drunken,dissolote and lawless American, who bred in idleness under the vileat conditions, and whose practices tended to encourage gross immorality. So great a nasiance did this element become that the ipsular authorise*—themselves Americans, be it remembered—were forced to pass special laws to dead with It. Other nations which have annexed tropical poasessions have known something of the same experience in handling worthless indTvidusls of their own blood whose habits helped to corrupt the native popnlation. It la evident that the theoriata who held that the United States,in taking the Philippines would be exempt from the evils that have attended similar policies elsewhere, ware badly ' taken.

The action of City Council in raising the salary of the Chief of Police and police officers is commended on all sides. Those who have had occasion to be out during the past winter nights can appreciate the hardships which our police officers are compelled to withstand during their service. They are now re leg under the new order $60.00 per month or |2.00 per day which at that rate is not too great pay for their posure and responsibility. Mr. Oiney's state is KepvbBcan. Cleveland’s state Is Republican. Parker's!tale is Republican. So is Mr. Bryan’s. Mr. Gorman’s state was Republican in the last two presidential campaigns. Mr. Cockrell's state has been Democratic, but there is no sincerity in the machine politicains who will handle the Cockrell boom as a mere 'compliment.
