dustr:es. But the greatest harm has
come from the habit Of trusting to gov
ernmental Interference for profits and
not to enterprise. The boy who relies
upon his patrimony for support and his
fathers reputation for social standing, is
always distanced by The boy who is
taught self-relinnce and that the success
achieved is always commensurate with
the effort put forth. Our boosted natur-
al resources, orr enterprise and intelli-
gent self interest, our claim to individual
superiority through having united the
best qualities of all nations, are but bluff
while we fear the competition OF less fav-
ored countries and seek by stealth the
foreign market We should win by "open
honorable battle"
The fact that We can produce more
than we can consume il not demonstrate
ed by actual facts, would be at least q
corollary of our pretentious Claims OF su-
periority. But we shrink from the proof
and rob our fellows to WIN the guerdon
OF the victor, and then pronounce the
foray deed OF merit and the outcome one
of astute craftsmanship. Had we built
up foreign market We would not now
be in extremity. The competition to
which We would be subjected would have
hardened the muscles OF enterprise add
would have built up a system which
would not have yielded to the first puny
shock OF adversely. We would not be
eternally on the defensive, fearing that
our possessions were in danger, but man
fully fighting for enlarged privileges and
not giving voice to the dolefui plant that
the world is too large and pleading like
the southern confederacy to be let alone.
We have produced more than we can con-
sumo and not having an outlet for our
surplus we are sentenced to inactivity by
the memorable laws of supply and de-
| mand until that surplus is consumed.
This will be a constantly recurring con-
dition with us while we are welded to
the cowardly conservatism of the "home
market" or while our field of vision does
not extend beyond our own noses and we
attribute to a change in the moon the ac-
| cumulated results OF years Of disregard
of the laws OF commercial health.
We fear Canada and the breech-clouted
| Cuban whose intelligence is not more
| than instinct OF self-preservation. Our
fear is even projected to the antipodes
| and we shrink from measuring stature
with the descendants OF convicts. We
| shrink from everything with the coward
| ly instinct of avoidance and prate loud.
| ly in the safety of seclusion OF our ability
to cope with the world.
There are democrats who show symp-
toms OF tremor, who think it unwise to
fight for enlarged commercial privileges
because OF the possibility that the Aus
tral1an may be the better man Of the two
| or that we might not prove match for the
purposeless and indolent Cuban. If such
be the fact the sooner we know it the bet
ter, to the end that We may build up
men of more business Drawn in the place
of the perlshable commodity with which
we are now burdened.

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND, won't you please
give us one little appointment of a Bragg

sitting down on all the democrats who

out offense. Ant their devotion to the
party entitled to as much consideration
