While the foreign cable dispatches bring almost daily to American readers some unfavorable comment of the foreign press on American policy in national af- fairs, it Is interesting to peruse such an article as we quote from the Petite Re- publique, an international labor organi- zation of Parts with tremendous circu- lation. In it's issue of October 25, it said {:
 Seventy-five years ago the Monroe
 Doctrine, America for Americans" was proclaimed. To-day events have gone further; the United States have engaged
 in international politics, playing in them
 a role more and more important. Just as
 seYenty-five years ago the Powers of Continents Europe were compelled to
 witness, powerless to interfere, the in
 surrection of the Spanish colonies and
 their separation from the mother country, just now old Europe witnesses without
 protesting the taking possession of Cuba
 and Porto Rico by the United States.
 That conquest opens to the latter a great economical future, insuring to them su-
 premacy over the canal across the isth-
 mus which will unite the Atlantic and
 Pacific oceans, so that the most impor- tant ways Of maritime communication, the Suez and Panama canals, will be in
 Anglo-Saxon hands. Therefore no one
 must be astonished if as consequence of the war with Spain the political pow CT of the United States increases beyond all proporti n and If it's influence over America increases also in such manner that thePan. American policy will be on the way to realization. Thank to It's en- ormous mass of capital, the progress of it's industry ana agriculture, the elevat- cd sentiment of it's citizens and the rapid increase of it's population, the United States finds itself to-day one of the most powerful factors of international life. The flag of the United States floats to- day not only over Porto Rica and Cuba, but also over Hawaii and the Philippines, and it's influence will soon be felt in China, where go many interests are now engaged. The expansion of the United States will not eonfine itself to the At lantic and the Pacific; it appears that soon an American fleet will be sstationed in the Mediterranean and along the coasts of Morocco, thus playing role in ques- tions which formerly interested Europe exclusively. Despite the present under standing between the United States and England, there is no doubt that in the near future the American Union will an- mex also Canada and the vast territories belonging to Epgland in the Northwest, SO that the politicaI axis and the equilib- rum of the Great Powers will be more and more displaced. In America one sees growing 8 formidable power before which all others have had to bend knees sooner or later. The successes of the United States must be considered as those of the laboring class the world over. If Spain had been victorious in the last war, that would have, delayed for long while the emancipation of the laborer in the countries she would have retained under hel domination. The United States count now more than seventy millions of peo-

The New York, New Haven and Hart ford road is, to-day, the best equipped road in the United States, 1t runs faster trains, runs them more frequently, gives better service than is furished by any other road, and does 1t at less cost to patrons. That's good record and Charles F. Clark and his able associates ought to be proud oft. This is what the New Haven Leader says, and ls also borne out by the testimony of every commercial traveller we have met, who know the railroads of this country by heart.
