American policy in south America should
be the policy of the United States. So should
1t be in North America. WHAT has it been in
our half Of the New World? Nothing but
the policy of irrepressible conflict. In South
America, as well as in Mexico and Central
America, people have but too well followed
the political and diplomatic axioms of our
jaunty and trimming Secretary of State. I'm
fortunately, however, the latter diplomat and
foster father of strife here has had to make the
acknowledgment that certain war in South
America was ''manifestly imperfectly de-
veloped, at least it was very imperfectly un-
derstood here" lin Washington. This admis-
sion was made, under date OF June IL, 1867, to
our Minister, General Sullivan, accredited to
the republic of Colombia. 1t would seem
that the political understanding of South
Americans has not been quite so obtuse; for
the civil system of butchery that has come
lately in vogue here under the auspices of
Mr.. Secretary Seward has been not only per-
fectly developed, but thoroughly understood
on the other side Of the Equator. The history
of the last few years bears us out in this
simple statement of facts. And the con-
trast that might be made between the
recent offers of mediation on the part Of
the United States in South American wars
and the peace conferences attempted under
Mr.. Stewards auspices at the beginning and
end of our late civil war would clinch the ar
gument, now universally accepted in South
America and Europe, that our present policy
on this Continent is no policy at all, or at the
best one of conflict-One of irrepressible con-
f1ict. So it seems to us at home. We need
but refer to our still unsettled rrepressible
conflict, to the Paraguayan war and to the
Spanish war on the Pacific, all. of which could
and should have been long ago settled by
competent Foreign Secretary
1t is true the American government has
never had a thoroughly well defined policy as
to South America. Now is the time to form
one and to proclaim it. The Paraguayan war
moves every chord in the hearts of Ameri-
cans. If our Minister to Brazil, General
James Watson Webb, understands the whole
secret of this war and can command the sup
port Of our truly American republic, the con-
trOl Of the great commercial artery of South
America can be kept from the grasp of mon
eyed aristocracy and from monarchical sway.
All the republics of that half of our Continent
can be so banded together and united in so
close brotherhood that the Rio de la Plata
can be secured for the common good of South
America and the universal profit Of the bust
ness world. More than this, republican insti-
buttons can be so strengthened that in a short
time the imperial regime of Brazil will have
to be expunged. The latter event will react
on Europe, and the political shock thus gene
rated may throw up from the depths of South
ern Europe small but secure islands of refuge
for the cause of true government. But 40 far,
we have no policy in South America. Let MS
have one at once.
