THE LESSON OF EXPERIENCES.
warning AGAINST Territorial Greed
Drawn from British Experience.

Springfield (Mass) Republican.
Another stanch English friend of demo-
cratic Institutions follows Mr.. Morley in
warning the United States to beware OF the
temptations which the conquests over Spain
are bringing before the nation. what l
would respectfully impress upon Americans
says Henry Labouchere in London Truth. us
that they will make a terrible mistake II
they seize the occasion Of this war to ac-
quire territories outside the area OF their
legitimate influence, such as the Philippine
islands" 1t is our strength, he says, that
we are a self-contained country, but "the
whole scheme of American polity would be
shattered were the globe to be dotted over
with American islands, neither states nor
territories, held under subsection
Europe would not be especially concerned
in this, and England certainly not. The
British government would rejoice unques-
tionably. and for patent reasons, IL we
should conquer and hold the Philippines. 1t
is a question solely of advantage or disad-
vantage to the American nation whether we
shall abandon the old course OF combining
our energies and sphere of influence to this
hemisphere or launch forth upon the stormy
sea OF Imperialism. They in England, says
Mr.. Labouchere, used to glory that they were
not q military nation. But:
I'VE have drifted into the position of a
nation with larger ornaments than any
other. No matter what we spend on arma-
ments, we are called on TO spend more. We
hold q larger portion of the globe than any
other nation. So absorbing becomes earth
hunger when once INDUCED that we are
every year adding new territories to our
empire. And what is the result? All do
nestle reforms are put aside as unworthy
to occupy our imperial minds. II a poor
man asks for bread he is told %joyfully to
starve, with the comfortable reflection that
he is the citizen of an expansive and ex-
panding empire. 1t is with us as 1t is with
a silly land owner who allows the tares
and weeds to flourish in his fields and bends
all his efforts to his useless rocks and
swamps. We who hold to the wise policy
of Mr.. Gladstone and of other of our de.
parted leaders are sneeringly called Little
Englanders.' Be warned, therefore,, by the
example of this country, my American
friends. Be ready, as l know you are. tc
defend the vast heritage that has accrued
to you. But rest satisfied with it. Remain
an example to the world that it Is possible
TO be great and prosperous without grab.
ping, now on one pretext, now on another
territory that is a source of weakness rather
than of strength. and without wasting YOU
substance in ornaments designed to defend
and to increase these unremunerative acuui.
sitions.''
These are wise words and spoken from ar
abundant experience by one who has main.
tanned a close sympathy with the masses o.
the people and who Is able to judge intel.
ligently of the effects of the imperialism,
policy upon home affairs and the progres.
of Improvement in the conditions of tn,

Booming Crop In Prospect.
Philadelphia Ledger.


The outlook foroa good wheat crop this
year is so good that the farmers are already
figuring on their profits, The exports for the
fiscal year just closing will exceed those
of the best previous year, 1892, by at least
S35, 600, 900. 1t was probably the prospect
of the plentiful supply of wheat in sight
that caused the great fall in its price yes
terday, carrying it down 7 cents in Chicago,
and in Duluth as much as 10 cents. 1t may
be only a temporary depression due to a
bear panic, but the probability is that the
Letter corner is broken and that wheat will
be permanently lower from this time on.
Such a prospect may not please the farmers
who have been calculating on prices such
as have obtained during the past few weeks
but it brings JOY to the hearts of the people
who saw their loaf of bread either adyanc-
ing in price or Diminishing in size in con-
sequence Of the high price OF grain

ANNEXATION IN THE SENATE.

The passage by the house of the reso-
luton providing for the annexation of
Hawaii was expected, but so large a
majority for the resolution was not
looked for. The fact shows that the war
has had the effect of greatly strength
ening the annexation sentiment, though
we confess our inability to perceive that
there is any better reason now for alb
Sorbing the Hawaiian islands than eX-
listed before the war. indeed we regard
the present AS being peculiarly inauspi-
ciOus for such n move.
The resolution was sent to the senate
yesterday and referred to the foreign
relations committee. from which it will
doubtless be promptly reported. 1t will
meet with Il vigorous opposition in that
body. Some of the ablest men in the
senate are on record in opposition to
annexation and it is to be expected that
they will insist upon being heard. They
are sufficiently numerous to extend dis.
cussion of the question over Il good deal
of time and it is possible they will be
able to prevent action ut the present SEES
sion unless the supporters of annexation
are prepared to keep congress in session
throughout the summer. These, proba-
bly,, will not be disposed to debate the
subject. There is no doubt about there
being Il majority in the senate in favor
of annexation, so that its ultimate sue
cess can be predicted, but it is just pos
sible that the opposition would gain
snmnthinp If action nv thn Snnotn should
be deferred until the next session. W.
are not confident, however, that this vii
be done.
Omaha daily bee., 1898-06-17

New YORK Mail and ENDreSS.
A most wholesome stipulation in the con-
ditions to be observed in recruiting the pres
ent volunteer regiments up to their full war
strength from the new call for rs 900 men
is that governing the enlistment of married
men. Such applicants, being otherwise eli.
gible, will be mustered into the service on
the approval of a regimental commander.
The latter, it is to be hoped, will in every
case endeavor to ascertain the condition and
prospects Of the family to be left behind.
There have already come to the surface too
many painful cases of want and destitu-
ton. While an admirable society is pledged
to care for such cases, there is no reason
for inviting them so long as there are more
unencumbered bachelors willing to enlist
than Uncle Sam can find room for.

Eugene Wolf IN Berlin Tagcblatt.
last I have seen the Spanish Armada
No. 2, or the reserve feet The Spauiards
call 1t the new Armada. II consists OF the
pelayo, Alfonso XII, the vittoria, the Nor
MAMMA, formerly owned by the Hamburg
line; the Columbia, one torpedo destroyer
and n torpedo boat, The Carlos ", an iron
clad, is on the way here.
The Pelayo is n fine ironclad. 1t makes
a good impression. There are four big guns
on deck and n good many smaller ones at
the sides. The Spauiards regard this ship
with almost superstitious veneration. Pic
lures of II are everywhere; the general
public thinks II the fastest and most for
midable craft anoat. But l have been
talking with people who know the Pelayo
well, and | gather from their intimation and
hints that II is one of those bellies who are
beautiful only when in repose, She has a
bad walk on her. as they say. For that
reason the Pelayo has never been taken
around much. 1t only shows off In the
safety of harbors and then is much admired.

They are fixing her up, though. She has

officer whom l met here, she one

There is little doubt that she will tumble
over on the first rush of the bull
But 1 must not forget the brand new
ironclad which has been building opposite
the arsenal for the last ten years. A week
ago, May 2, 1t was far enough advanced to
receive its boilers. But the chain broke
and the boilers went down into the hold,
twenty-four feet deep. They went into
smithereens, of course. Now they are erect
ing great derricks near by to haul UP the
pieces, This is the most important work
going on in the harbor. All the docks are
full of old iron, old cannons, dilapidated
armor, old cannon balls. etc. In the yards
of Carrara arsenal the gun carriages ana
other accoutrements for the Vittoria, Nor
MAMMA and Columbia are being constructed
mid great secrecy. The Normannia VIII
face the enemy under the name OF Rapido;
the Columbia has been renamed Patricia.
| have made the acquaintance of the COM
mander of the Pelayo, who constantly wears
civilian dress. He looks like an old dried-up
schoolmaster. But those Yankees should
look out for the commander of the Columbia.

a Genuine POpulnr Loan.

With the war spirit active among the
American people probably all financial rec
ords will be broken in regard to government
bond subscriptions when the Treasury de-
partment shall call for subscriptions for the
,lrst installment of the 5000, 600, 900 bonds
Authorized by thelwar revenue law. The
Law provides thatrindividual subscriptions
must be allotted first, and among these
preference must be accorded to those for
the smallest amounts. Subscription blanks
to the number of about 4 900, 900 will be put
in the hands of every money order postmas-

THE FIRST HOT DAY.

W. ]. Hampton in New York Sun.
Gee whizz,
But it's SWEET
And Swclter later.
The shade is grateful,
And the gray side of the street
Pulls paSSerS to 1t,
Who erstwhile sought
The sunny, highlights of the way.
There is "A simmer in the air
That, known so well in summer days,
Now seems a stranger,
Yet we feel 1t not.
The tender g|reenneSs of the trees
ShrinkS from the suns
Quick SCOrCh,
And youthful leaves mark shade upon
The grass and street,
In quivering scars
That tremble at the fiery touch.
We meet the sudden SWEET
As yet quite unprepared,
And winter-weighted as to clothes,
ON top and underneath,
We pant perspiringly
And sop our soaking broWS.
And try by twisting in our bonds
To stop their sticking
To u skins.
We're mOpping moist
And mad,
And in the sun-Sweat faces
OF
We see the warm reflection
OF ourselves,
And know
It's hot enough for u
And them
And everybody else.

The final report on the cotton crop of
the United States shows a reduction Of
1861 ,O60 acres in the area of the cotton
field this year as compared with last,
but the condition Is much better and
there is promise of a large crop. The
present low price of cotton has had more
to do with causing the cotton planters
to turn to other crops than the concerted
efforts of organizers to secure a reduc-
ton of the acreage.

Statistics contained in the annual ad-
dress of the president of the United

prove the correctness of the theory that
worry and dependency induce beer
