Chandler, already evident in the great
change which has taken place in the
! feeling between England and this
country. This change of feeling is pal
pable in both countries. The way in
which the British government has
acted during the past few weeks, ever
since our dispute with Spain reached
its elimination, has made a deep and
| lasting impression upon the American
people. The logical outcome of this
change will be an understanding,
amounting to an alliance, between
England and the United States here
after. No actual written treaty with
England is to be expected or desired,
because we do not seek any entangling
alliances with foreign nations in our
day any more than our fathers did.
But we can have mutually good I'M
derstanding between the two countries
without having it formally expressed
in treaty. There has never been any
very bad feeling between England and
the United States, except what has
grown out of what I may call the. as
sumption of England toward US of the
tone and manner of the big brother
to the little brother. England, in
times past, has been disposed to play
the big brother When we have had a
difference with her she has seemed to
assume to treat it, and to decide it,
not as if we were a nation of equal
power and dignity with herself, but as
if she, having that big navy of hers,
was entitled to act on the big brother
principle and say: We are going to
have it so and so, and you help it if
you can"
In order to get at a working basis Of
alliance with England, which this war
has brought into sight as a distinct
possibility, some method win have to
be found, of course, of deciding ques-
lions between the two countries on
some other principle than that. 1t is
evident enough that an alliance be-
tween the two nations, or, let us say. !
an understanding between them as
against the rest of the world, would |
not last long if, whenever a dispute !
arose between themselves, England |
We're to assume, as she has done on |
previous occasions, to settle it by her |
ipse dixit. The big brother attitude I
will have to be given up forever. And, |
unless some other way OF adjusting diff
ferences between England and our !
selves can be found the danger will be |
that eventually we shall ally ourselves
with the other great nations of the
world
IF England is seeking to make her
navy bigger than the combined navieS
of all the other great powers of the
world, then all the other nations will
find themselves in a sort of
to act together to offset, and,
if possible, at some time to overInatch
naval supremacy. That I'M
has been the recent tendency
Of things in Europe, and it has been
the tendency, in my mind, 1 confess, to
look upon that as the natural order of
things. But now 1 am quite strongly
led in the other direction. to consider
there should not be an English
alliance, or an understanding that
would be equivalent TO an alliance, be-
tween the United States and England,
for certain large and broad purposes.
Then, Mr.. Senator, you seriously
think that an Anglo-American alliance
is among the practical possibilities of
the near future?'

The Monroe doctrine would thus have
been made to disappear, unless we had
been prepared to enter upon an armed
contest to prevent such action by these
great powers, a war with any one of
which would have been much harder to
fight than this one with Spain. Hence
II is quite clear to my mind that this
war is most fortunate, in this respect
at least-that it will have the effect of
preventing larger wars, which other

Fortunately the blow was a glancing

Decatur what he could do for him.

good time being made. The race, from a
time standpoint, was a most remarkable
one. There were but two starters and lit
tie time was lost in getting them away
from the post. The pair went away heads
together, and Han Dor at once set out
to make his own pace. The first half mile
was covered in so seconds; the six fur
longs in 1:O4la; seven furlongs in 1:2715;
mile in 1:40A; mile and an eighth in 1874
and the male and a quarter in 2:07A. the
final time being 2:3212 which is a quarter
OF second better than any previous
record. Plaudit could never overtake Han
Dor from the start. The latter led by
three lengths until the stretch was
reached, when Plaudit tried to make his
run, but the killing pace had told on him
and Han Dor won in handy fashion.
Jockey Conley, who rode the winner
was surrounded by a large crowd when
he dismounted. and carried to the scales
room on the shoulders of several enthusi-
astic friends.

TO COLLECT THE EXHIBIT
Secretary GolObie Tells How He
Means to Work If

Guthrie, o. T., June 10.-(Special. MIR.
John Golobie, secretary of the territorial
exposition commission says that he Will
start out this week and will have a
store room in every city along the rail-
roads for the purpose of gathering the
samples Of grains. fruits and other prod
ucts. Someone in each city will be ap-
pointed to take charge until carload is
got together for shipment. Oklahoma
county probably has some of its last fall
exhibits on hand, besides the one sent to
Chicago, which will be Immediately avail
able. The agricultural college at Still
water has many varieties of grains, In
glass jars, all classified. Any preserved
fruits in existence should he sent in, or
any natural oils, minerals or manufac-
lures, of any matter of agricultural, horti-
cultural, forestry, vinOus or distilled liq-
uors.
Mr.. Golobie says:
I'VE should have some of our exhibits
in place within two weeks and the rest
will be added from time to time in sea-
son. Every person in the territory who
knows of anything of interest that IS
available for such purposes, should make
1T point to bring 1t to the city nearest.
In this way the best can be selected.
THE 18th day OF September, the ami
versary of the opening of the Cherokee
Strip, has been set by the management
Of the exposition as Oklahoma day. In
all probability that will be the day on
which the press association will have its
excursion. Railroad rates viii lbe reduced
and great numbers Of people will take ad-
vantage to go there. These people will
desire to point with pride at the exhibit
of their territory. 1t is to every citizens |
interest that Oklahoma has a good exhibit |
The eyes of the country are now upon the |
territory If it does not show its products |
among those of other states the visitors |
at the fair will think it strange. Okla |

ADVICE TO UNCLE SAM

London, June 10.-The st. James Ga.
zette this afternoon publishes long edi-
torial pointing out tho helplessness of any
further Spanish resistance and suggests
that America seek a settlement of the
Cuban question in Spain. It says:
There is no need of an invasion, but
the mere presence Of strong armament,
which the Spanish navy could not drive
off. on the coast, would produce a tremen-
dous effect and there are numerous I'M
fortified anchorages, where the Americans
could re-coal at leisure.
"Of course there are powers in Europe
who would witness the operation with dis
gust, but If the Americans are going to
be frightened by the vague abstraction
called Europe they must be very timid.
Let them consult the Sultan, and remem-
Der that Englanl is their Russia for the
time being"

SIDE-SHOT AT SALISBURY

London, June 10.-The Westminster Ca
zette this afternoon, commenting upon the
American suggestion that the Liberals are
hostile to the proposed Anglo-American
understanding, says:
The Liberal party desires nothing more
than to draw closer the bonds with the
United States. The leaders draw atten-
ton to points needing careful handling,
because, judging from the present con-
duct of foreign affairs, they have grounds
for fearing that the best policy may be
wrecked by lack of wisdom and persever-
ance. If we plead for care and caution
in dealing with the United States it is be-
cause of the anxiety to save that cause
from the fickleness of the present gov
eminent"
