DEMOCRACY AND WAII.

The chief opposition TO the annexation of Ha-

on the pending treaty has yet been TAKEN pu'
informal canyassing reveals the general DIVISION
of the Senate upon IT, The Republican mem
bers are almost unanimously in favor OF raunca-
ton. So are the Populists. few Of the Dem
ocrats take the same view, including some or
the most able and efficient leaders of that party
But most Of them are reported 10 ne against H.
and the overwhelming majority or the Oppose
ton TO it is Democratic. This Is one or the
salient features Of the case. and TO all who nave
not forgotten the political history Of the Nation
Il suggests some curious considerations.
For hitherto the territorial extension OF the
Union has been prime article OF the Demo
cratic creed and one of the articles upon winch
that party has most. and most justly. prided H.
self. The first such extension, the LOUISIANA
Purchase was the work Of the statesman VINO

patron saint of Democracy. The second 'he
ACQUISITION OF Florida, was accomplished py an
other distinguished Democrat, with the cordlai
approval Of his party. The third the anneNa-
zion of Texas. was the work or Democrats TOT
Democrats and by Democrats. The next the
ACQUISITION Of Oregon will always be associa'ed
with the name Of one of the foremost pupic
servants that party has produced. Purely Dem
ocratic was the next. which involved the tnlted
States In the unholy war with Mexico, and
ended In the application Of the brutal old prn-
cjnle tiIat might makes right. The sixth OK
tension. the Gadsden Purchase, was also effected
under Democratic auspices. and the seventh,
the purchaso Of Alaska was made by an Adj
ministration which. originally Republican, had
then gone over to the Democratic side. Finally

A PIC THING ON ICE

There was excitement In the crowd
When pa put or his skates.
Folks hardly dared 10 speak aloud.
He looked so naughty and so proud.
But all much interest ayOwed,
When pa pui ON his skates
A hush fell on the mighty throng
When pa stood on his skates.
He was 80 cool. so nonchalant,
No one could fear contrctcmps
To see his graceful abandon,
when pa stood on his skates.
But all me, what fall was .here
When pa first tried 10 skate.
With one wild swOOp OF fierce despair
He sat down where there no chair,
And hO.h his legs waved in the air.
When pa first tried 10 skate,
Then everybody looked away
While pa took off his skates.
The sun stopped shining for that day.
The sky grew overcast and gray.
For pa said things UNFIT TO say
While he took of his skates.
