.nessage is published in full on the
fourth page of to-day's Democrat. 1t
is an admirable document from high
tariff, stalwart republican standpoint.
1t hews pretty close to the line of the
republican platform of 1888. The
abolition of the tobacco tax is recon-
mended and it is suggested that it
would be better to cut off some of the
liquor tax rather than lower the tariff
taxes,

The Modern Plan Of Conquest.
(Natpnal EconOmlst)


MARY and financial interests. Somo-
times tho immediate cause has boon
apparently, OF a different nature but,
followed to the primal origin, it il nj
ways found based upon financial ben
e6t to be derived eithor by addition
al gain direct, or the preservation Of
sources Of revenue already existing,
but threatened with interruption or
destruction. The desire for the ex-
tention Of power is nothing more than
tho greed Of gain, and the securing
Of tho ability to levy tribute and in
crease revenue.
Conquest on tho part Of nations is
the equivalent Of financial operations
on the part OF the individualj merely
q means Of increasing revenues and
incomes, by means Of which all de-
sires and aspirations may be gratifod.
The conquesto Of the nations Of antiq-
uity were nothing more nor less than
the loyying Of tribute by force Of
arms upon the nations they overthrow
There was no philanthropy in their
acts. They were not inspired by any
desire TO elevate the race, to improve
the condition of their fellow-men.
Their object was merely to compel n
regular flow Of money into tho nation
al treasury, to be used in the various
ways to which all public revenues arc
appropriated, to enhance tho splender
and riches of the nation, as well RS
contribute to the qualification and elc-
vation Of aspiring men, whose ambi-
tioD aimed at great national wealth
and splendor as well .as personal ag
grandizement,
Rome made none of her great CON
quests from a spiritof philanthropy or
any desire for the higher development
Of the race, but from purely selfish
and mercenary motives; andso it has
gone on from age to age, the incen-
tive always tbs same
First, the desire grew in the hearts
Of autocratic rulers, whose personal
will could call into action all the pow
ers Of nations and apply them in any
direction. This inclination naturally
turned in the way of rapine and com
PEELED submission by force ofall with
in it's reach. This example, having
been early set, was subsequently fol-
flowed by all forms of government
succeeding the original autocracy,
and the results were appropriated by
the nation in the same manner.
The Roman conquerors did not say
to their unfortunate victims, "reform
your religion, change your form Of
government and your social organi-
cation, improve your status morally,
intellectually, and socially, and we
will be satisfied, having thus raised
you from degradation to enlighten-
ment" No, they merely said, snow
we do not desire to interfere with your
religion, moral or social ideas, or po-
litical tenets; all we want is revenue,
tribute to add TO our riches. Lave
