THE QUESTION OF DESTINY.

Professor Bryce, the critic and histor-
ical essayist, has expressed fears that
we may become involved in conse-
quence of going to war with Spain IN
way that will tell against the high aims
and lofty purposes of the American
nation. Which leads the Philadelphia
Post to remark that Professor
Bryce's fears are imaginary so lar as
he connects them with the new and un-
toward qualities in our national char
acter" 1t puts a reply to the scholar
and critic in a nutshell:
So far as our foreign relations are
concerned, the vigorous prosecution OF
this war to the complete attainment OF
it's announced objects will sweep dlfn-
culties from our path and fortlfy our
position among the nations of the
earth as a people to be respected,
with whom it is easy to be upon friend
ly terms, and with whom 1T will GER
tainly be unwise to be upon terms
other than friendly.
We will accomplish the objects for
which we set out, unquestionably, but
we will avail ourselves equally as sure
ly Of the results of war. These give US
the right which it is in the mouth of no
nation to deny, to hold such posses
sions as we wrest from Spain by act
of war. Assuredly they will not be
returned to her. After freeing Cuba
to give back the fruits Of war would
be to say that Spanish domination has
been of right, and our seizures a mere
means.
The sons Of Americans are not 60
heat, to sicken to death in malarial
camps. and be shot down by Spanish
riflemen, simply that the sons Of in
surgents in Cuba may enjoy their
rights. The war has the object OF
freeing Cuba, but it is accompanied by
the right to do betterments also by
holding that which we wrest from
Spain outside of Cuba. And the Amer
lean nation will do it.
He reads the signs of the times to
poor effect who does not see that the
war opens to US an opportunity which
suggests it's own verdict. Intelligence
and strength, as We have said before,
must dictate the terms Of government
for weakness and ignorance. This is
a conflict now between the hard shell
Of old and effete tryannical forms,
customs and systems and modern, civ
ilizing, uplifting and bettering agencies
and aims.
This nation Is moved by an inherent
aggressive force of a constantly aug
menting civilization, that must find ex-
preston outside of our own land when
the opportunity presentes naturally and
in the course of human development.
The destiny of the Orient is to be
wrought out by the will Of the great
nations of earth, and we are not to be
silent in that work. Against absolut-
ism, semi barbarity, medieval stagna-
ton are arrayed the American concep-
tions of government for the weak who
are by the fortunes Of war and civiliz-
ing change cast within the scope Of
our influence
If this is what Professor Bryce fears,
then he should welcome, not fear such
Involvement. The moral and civiIzing
revolutions going on are not to be ar
rested and come to an end with the
close Of the war with Spain. Nor are
we to move in sluggish currents when
new chapters in human history are be-
ing written.

EXPRESSION.
State and Coast Opinions on SUBJ
jects Of Living News
Interest.

San Jose Mercury: The announce
ment is made that shipments of gold
to this country from Europe will, in
all probability, be resumed in a short
time. This argues well for the imam
cial condition of the country and shows
that the world has faith in our future
prosperity.
A PESSIMIST.
Riverside Enterprise Two years
have gone, and where is the prosperity
that was promised? There is no man
to-day whose condition has been i'm
proved who cannot truthfully affirm
that the Improvement is due, not to
the policy of the Republican party but
to the wrath of God with his fellow
man. The Klondike madness, the ia
mine in India and the war with Spain.
Those three factors have produced
whatever improvement there is in the
affairs of the nation to-day. And now
will some sleek, white-chokered mouth
piece of the Administration arise and
refer us to the paragraph in the Re-
publican programme of '96 which prom
ised these blessings?
SPUNKY ENOUGH.
San Diego Union: H. Reujes, Vice
Consul for Spain at Honolulu, having
protested against '.the constant viola
tions Of neutrality in this harbor," the
Hawaiian Government responded that
lowing to the intimate relations now
existing between it and the United
States" neutrality had not been pro-
claimed; Furthermore, that assistance
and privileges have been rendered to
the United States" This is. spunky
enough for all purposes: and it also
indicates that the annexation scheme
has been ripe enough to pick for some
time past.
CHEERFUL OUTLOOK.
Los Angeles Herald: Amid the din
and tumult Of actual warfare in which
the United States is placed, it is pleas
ant to know that the commercial and
industrial outlook of the country is
brighter to-day than it was during the
palmy days Of peace. Not only have

do palitics" by playing the dema-
gogue. And it is ever thus and prob
ably will be while the world stands or.
at least, while republican government
exists on the earth. 1t is character
istic of the coyote that he will howl
whether there is anything to howl
about or not.

THE CRUELTY OF POLITICS.


No sensitive man has any business
in politics and fortunately those who
engage therein soon come to have a
thick skin, and hardened nerves. In
spite of the hardening process there
are acts that on their face bear the
stamp Of Intentional cruelty. This
was the case in the candidacy Of r.
d. Allen Of SilYerton, for the nomi.
nation for county clerk.
Mr.. Allen is a farmer and fruit
grower, has liberal education, is a
thorough business man and is one Of
the most competent men who has
ever been in the clerks Office. He was
deputy for two years under L. V.
Ehlen, but the combinations were
secretly formed in the campaign of1s96
and Mr.. Allen was asked to step out
to make place for MIR. F. A. Tur-
ner.
In the convention Tuesday Mr.. AL
len was the leading candidate and
would have been nominated IL tie
convention had been left to its delib-
crate choice. But some Of the bosses
determined to prevent Mr.. Aliens
nomination and so one after another
Of the candidates were withdrawn in
favor OF Mr., Hall OF WoOdburn, and he
was nominated when Mr.. Allen lacked
but four votes.
1t is TO be regretted that so clean.
able and competent a man as Mr.. AL.
len had proved himself to be was de-
feated in so unfair a manner. Mr..
Allen is pioneer Of our county and a
gentleman who has been Loyalty sup
porting the Republican party all his
life. He is a man however, whom the
positively could not use for any
dirty work whatever and they did not
want him for clerk,
