FRIDAY. OCTOBER II. 1ses.
a VOTERS DILEMMA.

A correspondent writing from San Di-
ego. Cal, as to the duty Of the thoughtful
voter in the forthcoming election says
that he is not quite clear as to whether
such a voter should cast his ballot for
the Republican party or the Democratic
party. II g. true. says he. that the Re
publican party stands for sound money,
while the Democratic party is still harp
ing on free silver. but the Republican
party has caught The expansion fever. and
he does not know but what free silver is
preferable 10 the stages through which
the country has passed since the last in
auguration. and IS now passing.
There are many voters IN this country
VINO are IN the same dilemma. Inc hepup-
llcan party is about as Wild on the sub
ject of expansion as the Democratic party
is on the subject of free silver, and If
the Republicans lose control of the House
IN the next election. they will owe it 10
this new tangled doctrine with which
they have recently taken up. The con-
servstive men of this country, Repubh-
cans as well as Democrats, are not will
ing to abandon that policy which our
forefathers taught, that policy upon
which we have builded the republic, for
=. policy Of imperialism which must in
eyitably involve US in all sorts OF foreign
entanglements. Hardly u week passes
that We do not hear Of strained rela-
tons" between Russia and England, or
Russia and Germany or Germany and
France, or England and Germany, or
England and France. and always because
OF some contention between these powers
about eastern territory. 1t is the colonial
policy of these nations that Is always
getting them into trouble and that keeps
them all armed to the teeth. We have
been free from all such dangerous COM
plications and the conservative men Of
this country are determined that we shall
keep free from them.

LET DEMOCRATS CONSIDER.

The most significant event IN the po-
iltical world within the past thirty days
was the appointment by Chairman Jones
OF a Committee on Ways and Means
composed Of silver Democrats, silver Re-
publioans and Populists, to push the in
terest OF the silver cause. and the cleo
ton by the committee Of Coin" Harvey
az General Manager of the work. Yet
that event seems TO have escaped the
editorial notice OF the free silver papers
IN Virginia. and we may say of the whole
South. so far as we have observed. Our
contemporaries have had nothing TO say
either by way Of commendation or pro-
test.
Colonel Bryan has now como forward
with a contribution 10 the fund which Mr.
Harvey Is raising, and has written a let
ter heartily approving the scheme. We
had supposed that this action Of Colonel
Bryan would certainly bring out some
expression from the Democratic press in
the South, but not so. our contempt
raries have passed the whole business
over in silence.
This Is to US disappointment We
would like very much 10 know what DEM

that he had any authority to commit the

has undoubtedly done this thing and he
has to all intents and purposes surren-
dered his prerogatlye TO Mr.. Harvey. and
has made him General Manager OF a
"triple alliance" OF which the Democratic
party forms a part. thereby making him
SELF subordinate to an officer whom he
has helped 10 appoint and practically put

The uonchalance with which this state
ment is made by the West Virginia editor
is a bit startling West Virginia was
once a part Of the Old Dominion. and
Virginia, as It existed before the division
was made owed a large sum OF money.
The Virginia State debt question was one
OF the most troublesome questions with
which the Commonwealth ever had TO
grapple After years OF turmoil and po-
litical excitement the debt was finally
adjusted, but IL is stin a great burden
upon the people OF this Commonwealth
virginia owes many millions, yet we
are told that West Virginia, which par
ticipated in the benefits Of the money
which the Virginia debt represents, is
entirely free from debt. and that her
finances are in most satisfactory con-
dltion. Evidently the people Of West
Virginia are not troubling themselves
about old scores.

LORD RosEBERY DROPS \ HINT.

The speech Of Lord Rosebery. the Lib
eral leader and former Premier OF Eng
land. delivered at an agricultural dinner
at Epson on Tuesday and printed in the
Associated Press dispatches of yester-
day is quite interesting at This time.
Lord RosebeIy reminded his hearers
in the beginnin, that ne was responsible
both personally and minisierially for the
declaration of Sir Edward Grey in 1852
on which the present policy IN regard to
Fashoda is founded. and that he had no
disposition to recede from word or
syllable OF that declaration, which senti-
ment was loudly cheered.
IT will be remembered that this declara-
ton was that Great Britain would re-
gard any cncroachment upon the Nile
valley by any other power as an cum
friendly" act. And Lord Rosebery inn
pressed upon mis- audience the gravity
OF The term "unfriendly' as used diplo-
ma1ically.
IT is not John Bulls way to brag about
what he is going to do, and all such
diplomatic questions as these are usually
kept secret But Lord Salisbury has
taken a positive stand and has no con-
cealment TO make from the English peo-
pie. On the contrary. he desires that
they shall know just what has been
done and just what will be done and
10 prepare them for any emergency. The
enthusiastic manner I'm which the "biue
book" has been received leaves the mat
ter IN no sort Of doubt that the govern
ment will have the hearty support Of
the people in the position that it occu-
pies.
But Lord Rosebery in his speech let
drop "a hint which is not We imagine,
without its significance and its purpose.
We quote:
con the other side OF the channel The
question Of the flag is an element OF
great gravity We all honor that flag
and would not wish 1t the slightest dis
respect But, after an, flag is portable,
and 1 have some hope that the flag in
this case IS not the nag Of France, but
OF al individual explorer. and not, there
fore. carrying the full weight 4of the re-
public hehind IT,"
We doubt not that this is intended as
a cue TO France, showing how she may
gracefully ease herself out OF the d.
lemma without appearing TO back down,
and it may be that the cue will be taken
in good faith and acted upon.
