THE d. NV or IMPERIAL
/SN

Daily States:
1t is disheartening to the lovers
Of constitutional liberty to note with
what enthusiasm large majority of
the press of this country have fallen
into the advocacy of abandoning
the old and we'll settled principles
on which the American republic was
founded, and of establishing an en-
pire with vast outlying colonies
peopled by mongrel breeds utterly
incapable of self government or of
any government free in its spirit.
We are told that the United States
have grown to such an extent that
our exigencies and interests imper-
atively demand expansion, and
that we should become a member Of
the great family of nations and fall
into their methods. That a nations
s vast in territorial dimensions with
population of eighty millions of
people cannot proceed on the prln-
ciples and theories of small and
comparatively Insignificant country
such as the United States were when
our Constitution was framed.
This is a pernicious fallacy. We
might as we'll say that when a child
has grown to mature age it must
abandon the early teachings of
honor, virtue and truth learned at
its mothers knee aud in manhood
become thief or a swindler, or in
womanhood prostitute.
The forces Of progress are in TIE
original principles Of States and
nations, and SO long as the princi-
pies on which governments are in
stitued are adhered to, and those
principles are wise there will be
development and progress. When
these principles are ignored and
pew lines of action are established,

CEASE YOUR BARKING.

The daily dispatches from Lincoln, Neb.,
would lead people to suspect that William J.
BRYAN was the only colonel in the country.
But he is not; the country IS full of them
lowell News.) The candidate, however,
is the only colonel of his kind, chosen to
command troops on account of his gift as
tary knowledge. But he may be a success.
Put him in front of Bl.nco and start him on
a two hour speech, and the chances are six
teen to one that Blanco would surrender
without asking for time to make TERMS
New Orleans P.cayune.
Mr.. Bryan is born leader OF
men. He is a man of known cour-
age and, although he has failed to
win the good opinion of the Plea
yune and other goldbug organs.
no one doubts his loyalty to the
flag. 1t is true that he has not re-
ceived a military education, but his
great mind will soon enable HIM to
equip himself for his new profession,
and it is safe to say that he will be
equal to all emergencies, however
trying. 1t is, to say the least, dis
gushing to the fair-minded Ameri-
can to read such contemplate ex-
pressions of petty luminosity in the
columns of as prominent a journal
as the New Orleans Picayune. We
had thought the enemies of Mr..
Bryan would have the decency to
cease their perpetual barking until
a more propitious time. Now that
he has taken the oath to defend the
honor of his country and has
donned the habiliments of
a soldier to join the other brave
men Of the republic to die, if need
be, on the field of battle, it was
hoped shat his critics would with
hold their ungenerous filings for
time at least. Mr.. Bryan is no in
go. He is no demagogue. He
did not, by word or deed, help to
bring on this war, but when it did
come, he did not hesitate to offer
his services to his country. He
did not enlist with the understand
ing that he would be appointed col
onel, but he volunteered as a plain
American citizen to serve where his
services would be needed. He may
be contemptuously sneered at by
those who take their Democracy in
a Wall street measure, but he has
earned more than ever before the
esteem and respect of all right
thinking Americans, be they Dem
ocrats, Republicans or Populists.

HEAVY RAINS.

The heavy rains of Sunday did con-
siderable damage in and about the
city. Wooster street, between Third
and Fourth, was badly damaged by
the water. The street had been
ploughed up and graded ready for
paving and the loose dirt was washed
away and great rut cut in the road
way. The water at the corner of
Third and Scanned streets was hub
deep notwithstanding the four catch
basins at that point. The water on
Second and Wooster also reached such
a stage as to stop the street cars for
some little time.

A. Feike, the cigar and tobacco deal

several days ago under peculiar cir

it become known that his leaving was
for fraudulent purposes.
He has been engaged in the manu-
featuring and retail tobacco business
in this city for the past two years and
had gained some trade and the good
graces of the business men of the city.
