EXPANSION TREATY.
The Treaty of Paris marks a new
departure in our national policy, and
it is such an inovation that the whole
theory of our government may be
changed by it. It may now become a
serious question whether indeed our
end shall be a Republic or an Empire.
At no time in the history of the conn
try was there greater need for far
seeing and able statesmen in Congress.
During the next few years, or per
haps for many years, we beJieve the
great struggle between the great po*
litical parties will be on the questions
growing out of the Spanish-American
war. The Republicans will naturally
as a general rnle align themselves
along the line of expansion and im
peria'ism. The cardinal doctrines of
the party logically lead them as an
easy 4t-p to this pxeition. The argu.
ment -hat "protection to infant in
dustries" naturally and logically leads
to paw nalism in all of its forms iE
now f.m;iiar to every reader who is
well i-formed on the fundamental
differerces between the Republican
and Dtnocratic partieS. Paternalism
as natorally and logically leads to the
new doctrines of 'expansion and im.
parialism as "protection for protec'
tion's sake" has led to governanental
bounties in all shapes. and forrms
Why should it not delight a Republi
can's beart, believing as he does in a
strong centralized government at
Washirgton, to contemplate the
Government at Washington ruling and
controlling the Phillipine- landi
thousauds of mi'is away, separated
from the seavof power by a great
expanse r.1water? Then too be sees
in it, 4portunity to rejoice that the
ideil of centralization is near at hand,
--beceante he sees the prospects of s
* larige standing army, the naturm
prodnct of centralization and a ne
cesity as well under such a policy, tc
say nothaing of a powerful navy.
But tce Democrat is more conserva
tive. Hie is slow, to invite a change,
He believes in every neighborhood
controliing and governing its owi
affairs just as far as possible, and he
suspects that every gain of power at
Washington is at the expense of his
liberty and right in his own neigh
borhood and State. He believes in the
citizen helping himself and that the
Government ought not to do anything
for the citizen that he can do for him
self. His faith being in local selt.
governmuent hie' is naturally opposd
to all forms of centralization and pa.
ternalism, and for these reasons
among others we shall not be sur
prised to find most Democrats opposed
to the new theories of imperialiam.
The averabe just ice-loving citizen
will doubt the righbt of this Govern
ment to take the Philipines, except
by the right that comes through force
and might. The relinquishment of
all sovtreignty by Spaina over Cubs
was the object of the war sought to
be accomplished, and no one outside
of a few ignorant Spaniards in Spain
ever doubted t'hat this would be ac
compl:ied when' this powerful coun
try undertook the joi>. It was pro
fessedly "a~ war for human-ty" and
nearly the whole civilbzed world ap
planded us when we 0 - ared that
barbariniy at our very do. - mulhsL be
stopped and Cuba is, and by right
ought tco be free and independent.
But now i.;toxicated with our victory,
we like t be triumphant political party
have gon;e into a game of grabbing all
of the snoisin sight.
* Why shonid we want the Philli
pines? Will they niot coat us more
than they will ever the worth to us?
Will the soiation in which we are
engaged pay un for the trouble ?
WE MAY BE BAFFY YET.
~ Newa ani Uomer.
A correspondent of the New York
Tisnes sa ye very truly that there is "ab
solutely no parallelism in the two
casea"-the annexation of Florida arnd
Louisiana' by the United States and
the prop' -ed annexation of the Philip
pine andi West Indian Islands. "Flor
ida and Louisiana were integral parts
of our :erritorv ;" "no rivers, no
deserts,. uo mountains, no natural
boundari s separated Florida and Lou
tsiana fromn our lande"-the new lands
which we have seized and would hold
are separated by great cceans and are
filled wit.. strange peoples having noth
ing in common with us in lan guage,
customs or laws. The Times corres
pondent continues:
"Our Nation surely is going into
very deep water-; deeper than our
countrymen are aware of. During the,
last Presidential campaign the city of
San Fraxdsco was more than once
placerded with appeals for seoe'sion
from the sold bugs of the wicked East.
Not a ma:- who advocated free silver:
and 16 to 1 would have retased to vote
for secession if he could have hadi
opporuity, and now we propose to
create o new republic of the west-a.
new emoore for a coming Emperor--I
on the Pac Slope by the addition of
all islands of the oceau to the coass of
China, 'here dismemberment has
already began. Mighty vtsiens of
influence, and the final atbsorption of
every commercial enterprise and gain
for tb3 new Republic of the West! Is
'l this an impossibility? By no means,
and we are innocently undermining
our whole Federal system in one coin
mon ruin!
"There is a 'Lost Cause' to be sure,
but is the sentiment of secession dead
and the vision of a republic in the
Sonth vanished? Cabo and Peurto
Rico (at our very door is the trite
saying) and Jamaica begging to come
in, and Santo Domingo opening up
another board field for the exercise of
national or in ternrtienal humanity
are these opportunities a temptation?
If there is to be a new empire in the
Far Weat, with its multitude of office;
to be fliled, from a President-Emperor
down to pages and marshals, why noi
anot her in the South, on the Gulf of
Mexico and the Atlantic Coast? Are
we heapinir up fuel for a greas confia
gration? But if two new republics of
the empire, why not another in the
North and Eami? A union of North
ern and E-tntern States with the Do
minion of :anarla would constitute no
mean; specimen of an imperial repub
lie, and it wou.l always be in alliance
with the mother country of both.
The great Middle States and the Mid
dle West would be left out in a cold
place, it is true, but they would soon
become .warm and not in perpetual
civil war, and surrounded by imperial
republics on every side."
We are opposed to the annexation
of foreign territory, and wars of con
quest, and entsngling alliances with
the otqer nations of the world, on
principle; and we are opposed to the
division of our own country into sepa
rate nations, or republics or kingdom;,
on principle; -but this is a very practi
cal age and if the fears of the Ttmes
correspondent could only be realized
we should probably be compelled to
take % prac'ical view of the situation,
acd say
"Be still, sad heart, and cease repic
ing,
Behind the clouds the sun's still shin
ing;"
or words to that effect.
If there is to be a new empire in the
Far West, and a union of Northern
and Eastern States with the Dominion
of Canada, and perpetual civil war in
the Middle States and Middle West,
however sorry we might be for the
Canadians, manifestly it would be
necessary tor "the South" t.) take care
of itself. On seco i thought, there
really appears to be a good deal in the
annexation movement.
Regardless of Age.
The kidneys are responsible for more
eickness, suffering. and deaths than
any other rgarsa of the body.
A majority of the4lls afflicting peo
ple to-day is traceable to kidney trou
ble. It prevades all classes of society,
in all climates, regardless of age, Eel.
or condition.
The symptoms of kidney trouble
are unmistakable, such as rheumatism,
neuralgia, sleeplessness, pain or dull
ache in the bck, a desire to urinate
often day or night, profuse or scanty
supply.
Uric acid, or brick-dusi deposit in
urine are signs of clogged kidneys,
causing - poisoned and germ-filled
blood. Sotmetimnes the heart aches
badly, and tube casts (wasting of the
kidneys) are found in the urine, which
if neglected will result in Bright's
Disease, the most dangerous form of
kidney trouble.
All these symptoms and conditions
are promptly removed under the inlin
ence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root. It
has a worid wide reputation for its
wonderful cures of the most distress
ing cases.
No one need be long without tit as it
is so easy to get at any drug store at
fitty cents or one dollar. You can
have a sample bottle of this wonderful
discovery, Swamp-Root, and a book
tellin'g all about it, both sent to you
absoln~elv free by mail. Send your
addrecs to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Bing
bamton, N. Y., and kindly mention
that you read tbis liberal offer in The
