IN the scramble which is going on
among the so-caIled civilized nations
for territorial extension, the United
States seems destined to cut no small
figure. Our methods may differ from
those pursued by European nations
but to use familiar phrase, We get
there just the same
Americans and American newspapers
seem inclined to criticise European land
grabbers and to charge them with
greediness and a disposition to take un-
due advantage of weaker nations, but
when our manner of securing a large
section of our southwestern territory
is viewed in an unbiased way, we have
little to boast of.
Florida and Louisiana were bought
and paid for but at a ridiculOusIy low
figure. The fact was that Spain and
France chose to get what they could,
while they could rather than wait long
er and perhaps lose their American
possessions and get nothing.
When Alaska was purchased it was
generally conceded that the price paid
was all it was worth, but we seem to
have made a fairly good bargain there.

States has grabbed any territory tend

taken as a criterion it is only a question

Whatever may be said in opposition
to the further territorial extension it
is improbable that anything will arrest
it. 1t is fate. AS far back as history
extends the energetic, enlightened and
progressive nations of the earth have
disposed or assumed control of those

a Misunderstanding.

IL seems that an entirely different
construction, to what was intended by
the author was placed on the commu-
nioation OF Sheriff Lewis addressed
to the board of county Commissioners
ana rend yesterday. The board got
the idea, that the sheriff wanted the
county to furnish him with horse
and rig, which is not the case; the
sheriff merely wanted the board to
pay the cost OF feeding and caring for
horse, he to furnish an animal OF his
own. The suggestion the sheriff made
in the interest Of economy aud 10
lessen expenses. Frequently the
sheriff has To mske trips out into the
county, and each time is compelled to
20 and hire e rig. Yesterday trip to
RiVerlon was made by one OF his
deputies and 1t cost the county Sd0O.
Hardly day passes but what two or
three OF these runs have to be taken
costing in the neighborhood OF $4,000
month, Ii occurred to Sheriff Lewis
that II would be cheaper to get horse
OF his own and IL the county would
psy the cost Of feeding, he estimates
that II would mean save OF more thAu
one hall OF what Is now being sx-
pended In hiring rigs. l. is evident
from this that the board OF county
commissioners placed wrong con-
struction on the communication, as
no action was taken, the minutes
showing It to have been filed.
