Bryan on Imperialism.


The latest deliyerance of William
Jennings Bryan ON the subject of
imperialism and expansion, says
the Philadelphia Ledger, is as pa
triotic as it is conservative.
He declares that the imperialist-
lc idea is antagonistic to American
ideals, and that to enter upon CO.
lonial policy, such as is pursued by
European nations. is to abandon
the doctrine that governments de-
rive their just powers from the con-
sent of the governed.
To paraphrase Lincoln's an
nouncement, Mr.. Bryan contends
that the United States cannot en-
dure half republic and half colony,
half free and half vassal-
With respect to territorial acqui-
sition he finds great difference
between natural expansion into a
contiguous territory, to be clothed
in time with the dignity of state
hood, and the absorption of remote
islands, peopIed with barbarous
and alien races, to be held in sub
lection under forms of government
not contemplated by the founders
of the republic.
Mr.. Bryan realizes that the coun-
try wants peace, and he believed it
would be wise TO ratify the treaty,
and follow this by the enunciation
o: policy by Congress with re-
speet to the disposition of the new
acquisitions.
For himself, he would favor the
establishment of stable and really
autonomous government for Cuba,
the submission to the people of
Porto Rico of proposition of an
nexation, and the according to the
Philippines of an opportunity for
the erection of a government for
and by their own inhabitants on a
plan fashioned like that of Cuba.
Under no circumstances would
he favor the permanent annexation
of the Philippines, as that would
entail costs and risks which the
United States ought not to assume.

and Will Eventually BE
Loanins Nation.

Chicago, Bee. ia number OF. Chi
cago bankers and financiers have been
interviewed in relating to the reported
applications of one of the European
powers for heavy loan In the United
States.
Earnest A. Hamiu, president of the
Corn Exchange National bank, said:
"Tnere is no question but this country
is becoming so rich that its surplus
money Will seek Investment abroad.
The balances in it's favor are growing
larger, and it is assumed that accumu-
Iatins wealth at that rate is unpre-
cedented Money. consequently, is
reason, though the proposition OF max
ing loan to a foreign government is
unprecedented in this country 1t seems
natural and altogether probable. In
case such loan is made, Chicago is in
a position to provide a considerabie
share of it,, l 5Efsi aeS
There is no doubt that il Russia
wants a loan this would be the; natural
place to seek it, !" said J. b. Fergans
vice president of the First National
bank. The American money market at
present is the easiest in the world The
New York banks last week added $10,-
100000 to their accumulated surplus.
and the Chicago banks $4,000, 900. Some
of the Mexican states are now taking
steps to borrow in this country. .,
John c. Dlacls. president of the Con-
tinental National bank, said: ut is
as sure to come as tomorrow that
America will become great monev
Lending nation, like England and tt
greater nations of the world. The
United States is accommodating wealth
twice as fast as any other country
1t would occasion no surprise should
It be reported that Russia was seeking
a loan in England or France. and

Views of Commander Mort

Seattle, Wash, Dec. 19.-Commander
I. Mort. who is en- his way to San Fran
cisco to take charge of the new Japan
csc cruiser Chitose, says the policy of
expansion, which has been adopted by
the United States. receives the most
cordial moral support of the Japanese
from sentimental and commercial rea-
sons. Commander Mort thinks a con-
siderable portion of the future con-
tracts for warshfps will be let to Amer
lean firms. One of the principal rea-
sons of this, aside from the superior
workmanship, will be because the
United States is near to the home
country, SO that the vessels can be
taken across the Pacific without long
voyage through the suez canal or
around the Cape of Good Hope

You can't tell whether a man is
a Democrat or a Republican by his
opinion upon leading questions.
Members of all parties are expan-
sionists; members of all parties op-
pose the proposition as one fraught
with untold dangers; there are Dem
ocrats who favor the gold standard
and Republicans who oppose pro-
tective tariff. Hope of Office. of re-
ward, keep most Republicans in
line; d deep-rooted prejudice holds
a large per cent. of that party loyal
to its ticket. Some day, and that
day is fast coming, most men will
study their own interests and those
of their children before they vote.
The man who is a protectionist be-
cause his father was an abolitionist
is not of much value to free coun-
try; the man who votes ticket in
1898 because he voted that ticket
in 1868 is very much of a mossback
He ought to have better reason.
