PROPERTY OF THE UNITED STATES.


The policy which some cnll imperialism in
Intended reproach. and which they denOunce
as n new and perilous thing. Is now clearly
seen to be not in the least 'imperiallstic' In the
old. mOnarchical and offensive sense OF the
term and instead of new and perilous: to he the
ongcstablished and safe policy Of the Repub-
lie. prescribed or at least provided for by the
Constitution, and consistently practised for
more than n hundred years. There Is one
feature Of 1t that is not much dwelt upon ut
present but which Is by no means OF least
importance in its bearing upon the welfare OF
the existing Union Of States. That is its nd
dtion to what the Constitution calls property
belonging to the United States" and it's con-
seauent strengthening Of the bonds OF material
Joint interest that bind the Republic together
Let It be granted that such bonds are not
absolutely needed. Neither are they 10 be
scorned or Stunned. We n nation indis-
solubly Joined by many ties of tradition. or
sentiment, Of ambition, Of faith, OF legal COM
pact. To these there may we'll be added. or
augmented, for they have always existed. the
ties Of common ownership Of territory or
other property" That principle was early rec
Ognized. when the young States transferred
their individual rights in the Northwest Ter
ritory TO the General Government. 1t has been
maintained ever since in the acquisition and
holding Of other territory by tho Union ms a
whole But the Northwest Territory was finally
erected into States, and so have been most Of
the other Territories Some OF them yet re-
main Territories, owIed In common by the
Union. Some will yet become States. some
never will. And the effect will be not harm
full, but salutary. II we add TO the extent Of
the latter. so that there may always be. az the
Constitution apparently contemplated. a con-
siderable dorlain which Is not State nor the
property Of State. put the property of all the
States in common. That is what Alaska Is.
and Is Likely always TO remain. That is what
Hawaii has now become, and will remain.
There can be little doubt that the holding Of
such property. and the administering Of its
affairs. and the enjoyment OF ITS use and profit
have a unfying effect upon the owners. Such
effect has been observed more than once or
twice In the history Of the Nation It is espe-
cially opportune that 1t should be renewed and
augmented at this time, when in the stress
Of war this Union has been made more coherent
and harmonious than ever before since 1t was
formed. The war has closed and healed what
ever rent there still remained from ancient
feuds. The acquisition Of more National terri
tory will add an imperlshable seal to that
happy cOnsummaton.

Pennsylvania, few of the home team supporters dare to hope, but there are many who think that Harvard ought to show supremacy in kicking and on the ends, enough at least to counter act PennsylVania's decided advantage at center. The game will be called at ? o'clock and the indications point to an unusually large attendance. Both the universities brass bands will at tend and all the lively incidents of a big college game will be present. liar wards lineup will be:
 Cochrape, left end; Donald, left tackle; Bowl left guard; Jaffray, cen- ter; Burden, right guard; Mills or Haughton, right tackle; Hallowell, right end; Daly, quarterback; Dlbblee, left halfback; Warren, right halfback; Reid, fullback.
 A mass meeting of students was held in Sanders theater tonight in evidence of the hearty support of the university given to the football team. Members of the Varsity eleven and of the Var sity crew were present and addresses were made by Head Coach w. c. Forbes, B. G. Waters '94, J. s. Crans- ton '91. J. H. Perkins '9S presided. Cheers were given for all the football players and the meeting was very en- thuslastic.

The stock Market.


 New York. Nov. 4,-There was some flutter amongst the shorts this morning in Sugar on the report that the Ameri- can company has acquired the entire Hawaiian crop. Operators who had been selling the stock on the intlmation of an authority in the Hawaiian sugar industry of the loss involved in the present rates for selling refined sugar, hastened to cover their short contracts and rushed the price up 1h points The price was sustained with difficulty, which increased as the day progressed so that the stock closes company was in way to secure the Louisiana crop also. Tobacco, although it rose in the early trading, dropped over points before the close, which was at a net decline of 2$. The trad ing in the specialties was hardly as &C., tive as of late and the Federal Steel stocks were also rather neglected and inclined to heaviness. In the railroad list there were various points of ag- gressive strength and a broadening tendency. The division of business is somewhat equalled by the falling off in activity in the grangers and Pacifics, especially the latter, the preferred stocks of which did not offer a single quotation until some time after the opening of the exchange. On the oth- CT hand there was notable increase of activity in Denver and Rio Grande preferred, which rose over a point on the strength of the continued increase in earnings which was over $6600O for the fourth week in October and $120, 700 for the month. The southern roads are quite uniformly strong. also notably gains being registered by Louisville on the belief of an early presumption of dividends and Southern Railway pre- ferred and Mobile and Ohio on good traffic returns. There were excellent statements of earnings for the fourth week in October also for Wisconsin Central, Norfolk and Western, Chesa- peake and Ohio, Missouri Pacific, Chi cago Great Western, Lake Erie and Western and other railroads and a strong statement for September from Cleveland, C., c. and St. Louis. The comparative hesitation in the grangers was largely due to the Rock Island statement for September, which showed the increase of $64,3S1 in gross earn ings more than wiped out by increased operating expenses so as to show de- crease in net earnings of over $29,000. The decision to dissolve the Joint Traf- fic association was without effect, the action having been expected.

AN ARMY OF TOAns.

There were never so many toads at the South End as seen there this fall It is doubtful if there were ever so many toads in any neighborhood in New England and the residents won der where fthey all came from. There are big toads and little toads all the way between The popular idea is that it has rained toads, as sometimes happens, according to the legend. pr. Hodge, of Clark University, Is to blame for 1t all The doctor discovered, by careful observation of toads kept in congenial confinement in little pens in his garden, that toads are humani- tarians of the highest order, that they can get away with more housefies than all the artificial fiytraps in creation. Realizing the importance of the reptile, he placed in the pens of water in which the toads deposited their eggs. The eggs matched That is all there is to 1t. The toadinss flour sr- ed and became fat, slow-hopping toads. with lightning tongues that Tapped in every fly that came within range.
 Any one who has ever seen the eggs of a toad will realize what South End is getting in the way of f1ytraps. Dr. Hodge promises to add several hum dred thousand to the colony in another year. Think of the warty influence thus sent abroad! A wart or toad ordinance will be needed, or there will be never a fly left to perpetuate the species. The surgeons of the United States Army should provide a toad hatchery at every camp of troops, that the malaria carrying insects may be attacked without mercy. But are toads malaria proofs? May they not Ee eytorminated by the tainted fly? The South End must be fortunate in the matter of flies. Were 1t not for mosquitoes screens would soon be un- necessary. What Is wanted now is a nocturnal to-destroying toad Worcester Gazette.
