Growing Friendiiness.

The growing friendship between the
people of the United States and the sub
jects of good Queen Victoria, manifesto
tons OF which have of late been frequent
both in this country and Great Britain
and her Colonies, has been again pleas
antly attested in the course of the Expo
sition recently in progress in st. John.
Friday, the 18th, was 'Mane Day at the
Exposition. Governor Powers was in at
tendance with his staff, as well as many
private citizens of the Pine Tree State,
and they were received with a degree of
courtesy and a warmth of hospitality
which showed the strong feeling of kin
ship and mutual regard which have been
born as result of the recent war with
Spain
Maine Day at the Exposition, accord
ing to all accounts, gave the representa-
tives of our State evidence of sincere
friendship and neighborly good feeling on
the part of our provincial kinsmen across
the line, and it will tend in its influence
to still closer and more cordial relations,
aud better understanding between the
people of the two sections.
No war has ever brought about happier
OF more desirable re- ad justments and
changes of conditions than the one just
ended between Spain and this country. II
has secured for Cuba for all time the
blessings of freedom aud good govern
ment; it has opened new era of prog
ress and enlightenment for Porto Rico
and the Philippines; it has unified. har-
monized and strengthened the United
States. Lastly, and it is by no means the
least of the good it has accomplished, it
has given unity of feeling to the people of
toi, no
planted friendship where there was for
merly envy, jealousy, bitterness and
prejudice.
The United States cannot forget, if she
would the inestimable service Great
Britain rendered her by her sympathy and
outspoken friendship in connection
with the Spanish war. Had it not been
for the positiveiterms in which this sup
port and sympathy found expression, the
continental powers of Europe would have
openly and actively espoused the cause Of
Spain. The United States has wrested
Cuba from the clutch of Spanish tyranny,
and planted the Stars and Stripes on the
soil of Porto Rico and the Philippines di-
rectly by reason of the valor of American
sailors and soldiers, but indirectly as re-
suit of the moral support of England.
The era of good feeling which has come
to the people of these two mighty ma
lions of kindred tongues should be es-
pecially welcome and grateful to all who
live, as we do here, near the border line.
We are of necessity mingled together So
cially and in business relations, almost as
one people. A very large percentage of
Aroostook people are of Provincial Or
igin, sturdy, honest, frugal and industri-
Gus, and it is pleasant to have them
brought inro still more cordial relations
with the community of their adoption,
and to cause them to owe to us and to
ours an attachment as warm as that
which they acknowledge to the soil and
institutions of their native land. [Presque

CORRECTING PERSISTENT ERROR.

paper and so friendly to the United States that
1t is pity to see it deuded by the sophistres
of Little Americans" into thinking this Nation
has abandoned or Is abandoning or means 10

annexation of the Hawaiian Islands and seizure
OF the Marianne and Caroline Islands, 1t says:
THE United States has" thanks for that mas
Thrown the Monroe Doctrine to the limbo Oh

obsolete and has planted the Stars and Stripes

despite the efforts Of those whom 1t curiousiy
calls our best men to keep the United states

cerned. be passed by In wearied silence But
for the sake Of our friends beyond the ocean
who have been miscd by marplots here, 1t may
once more be explained that annexation Is not
in the least incompatible with the Monroe Doc
trine: that Washington, Adams and Monroe
never prescribed any bounds for this Republic;
that on the contrary, Washington himself clear
IL foresaw the vast extension Of our territory
and interests; that Adams. who Jointly with
Canning conceived the Monroe Doctrine. was
an ardent and outspoken advocate of planting
the Stars and Stripes oversea"; that Monroe,
who promulgated and gave his name to that
doctrine. was unequvOcally committed to the
same policy, and that, in brief. the present adj
vocaes of territorial extension are loyalty striv-
Ing to fulfil the principles and policy of Wash

Americans" are striving TO rcpudiate them and
TO lead the Nation off into untried and dubious
ways s717n
Those are the simple facts in the case. of
which "The Outlook" can readily assure Itself
by reference to the record
