peared in the glow OF patriotic fervor with
which the president and the secretary of state
have been supported in their enunciation OF
the Monroe doctrine. With one accord we
recognize that their polieyis the policy OF the
whole people. Under their $killfuI guidance
the autonomy Of this great nation has been
strengthened, and the obligations entailed
upon the people the benefciares of this
free system of government have been clearly
set forth. The principles of freedom and of
liberty have been cherished and protected
without as we'll within. our borders. The
first made plain to the people the desrabilty
or non-interference in foreign affairs. Presi-
dent Monroe established the necessary corol-
larry OF non-tnterference by foreigners in our
affairs. The great principle. further developed
by President Cleveland and Secretary Olney
rests upon the basis of self preservation for
International law may be said 10 be the science
Monroe understood it. and as such the presi-
dent has made its application clear TO our
people,. From this great principle firmly and
sincerely adhered to. there will inevitably

fact that at the frat opportunity the peo-
pic of the United States repudisted that
bill. what other act can be imputed to
him as one likely to impress the people
with confidence in him we are at loss TO
conjecture.
But he certainly has been acting a part
towards the all-important question now
cnsasng the public mind that Is most
singular. and calculated, according TO
our past experience in life. to make the
people entertain feelings Of contempt Tor
him. 1t is the first time In our informa-
tion when a man has secured popularity
81 Mckinley has secured 1t. by playing the
part OF q trimmer and refusing TO eN-
press an opinion upon an all-absorbing
question. which was dividing the people
into angry and even fierce factions.
And not only does he refuse to express
any opinion upon this vital question, but
IL thc New York World can be credited.
he is actually taking active measures to
increase the haze which has heretofore
surrounded him. The World has dis
patch from Canton. o., which states that
Mckinley has put out a circular pro-
icssedly 20 clear UP his position towards
finance. but that when this circular Is
critically examined Il is found to be moth
ing but extracts from his speeches in Con-
crcss and on the stump. and these speech
es are absolutely unintelligible as bearing
upon the present issue. They contain
sentences which have reused free-siiver
audiences in the far West to the widest
expressions Of JOY, and they alsb contain
declarations which any sound-money man
in the East could cordially approve. But
nothing in them tells where Mckinley
now stands.
The meaning Of ali this lcserdemain is
perfectly plain TO us. lie hopes TO keep
the delegates from the silver States sup
porting him until he is nominated, and
after that he proposes TO conciliate the
sound-money men Of the country by
declaration that he is for sound money.
We suppose that as politics are now
understood this is considered fair politics.
Thirty years ago it would have been
thought utterly disgraceful. But with
very few exceptions the Republican news
papers of the country either openly or
tacitly approve of McKinley's course.
We can only say, "Tempora mutantur ct
nos I'm Ills, mutamur." 1t seems very
absurd 10 say so at this time but we do
say. nevertheless, that we cannot believe
Mckinley is going to be the nominee OF
the Republican party, and although he
w0uld be their weakest candidate we
cannot help saying. in behalf OF honorable
and upright conduct, that we hope he Will
not be.

FREE INTERCOURSE,

Mexico is republic composed OF
States like our Union. For q long time
traffic and intercourse between the MeXi-
can States has been burdened and i'm
peded by impositions and duties. to the
very great interruption OF free intercourse
between them and 10 the greatest injury
Of the public. But Mexico has at last
found out how unwise these imDositions
are. and charges upon traffic between the
States have been abolished. This is u
fact that is perfectly well established.
but we state il with great hesitation, be-
cause free coiners deny all facts that
relaxe TO Mexicp. tand we might be
called on TO prove this one, which we
could not do, Of course, without Drocur-
Ing from Mexico duly authenticated cop
les Of the official acts and proceedings
that have forbidden these duties, ana
that would lake considerable time and
be attended with both expense and in
convenience. 1t is a fact. however all
the same, ami if any free coiner calls
upon US to prove 1t, We shall tell him
10 90 there himself.
When the trainers of our Government
framed our Constitution they had the
wisdom to see that the most important
OF all things was to establish perfect
freedom Of intercourse for travel ana
for traffic between all parts OF our enor-
NOUS territoy. For the purposes OF
intercourse this whole and vast domain
was 10 be one neighborhood, though for
local interests 1t was 10 be separated
into many. The guardian Of our Con-
stitution, the Supreme Court Of the United
States, has been vlgilaDt and active 10
preserve this principle un!mpeached ana
unimpaired in all the yigor OF It's orlgl-
nal conception, and it has regularly ana
sedulously broken down every encroach-
ment upon it that any legislative act has
made. This whole country has been Kept
by it one open prairie for all corners ana
eoers. whithersoever they would uavei
and wherever they would send their
goods. 1t cannot be doubted that the
wealth and mighty power or this nation
is due more 10 that cause than to any
other. We have developed IN every way
and acquired riches more according 10 the
fancy sketches Of the Arabian Nights
than according TO anything else tnat
the world has ever known Of.
This being so. the reflection has often
pressed itself upon our mind why is not
universal free intercourse amongst all
people the very best condition that could
befal them if free intercourse between all
of our States has produced these mar
yellous results. 1t would be very hard
TO admit the case as We have stated ~
and to deny that it props that universal
free intercourse would be the best con
dition that could arise.
How, indeed. any man who allows his
mind to open and take 2 wide survey
Of the world as it is and has been. can
tolerate anything like restrictions upon
freedom Of intercourse between mankind
is a mystery and marvel 10 US. But
when he reflects upon what perfectly
free intercourse between all parts Of this
Union has done for it. he would seem
10 us TO be u blind man If no does rNt
see that the principle should be extended
n far as possible TO all nations and all
peoples.

A portion OF the delegates to the SUI
prcme Council of the A. +. A. have IS
sued a manifesto severely donouncing Nc

Kinley met their Advisory Board in con-
sultation at his home in Canton and ex-
pressed himself as favorable to their
principles. and the next day gave out
a press interview denying that he had
even met their representatives,. II this
be true, that Mckinley Is straddling and
playing fast and loose with everything
in order to be nominated. he is not worthy
the support even Of Republicans. and the
people next November Will remember
these things.
