ANNEXATION WITH HONOR.

The Roseburg Review aud the CAP
ITAL JOURNAL may as well let up
about the annexation of Hawaii and
get ready to fight against the annex
alton OF Cuba and Porto Rlco.-Plain-
dealer.
The CAPITAL JOURNAL has faith
enough in the honor of the American
people and OF the American president
TO think that 1t will not be necessary
TO fight against immediate annexa-
tlon OF Cuba. Such utterances as the
above. from a rank Republican organ,
serve TO show what Il high standard
OF national honor really obtains in
the ranks of the gold standard press.
A summary and forcible annexation
of Cuba, against the wishes Of the
majority OF her inhabitants, either
now or in the future, would be an act
OF brutal and dishonOrable oppression
OF a weaker by stronger people.
Might never yet made right, no mate
ter how much the nations may he in
clined TO bank on that theory. That
we are amply able To take and keep
Cuba, and to shoot the Cubans into
submission, goes without saying.
That we would like tohave the island
and that our rule would be inealcula.
bly, better for the Cubans than that
OF Spain, Is also true. But that we
are capable Of deliberately breaking
the solemn pledges which we yolun-
tarily made at the beginning OF the
war, is thought too insulting
To the better nature OF the
American people TO be enter
talned. 1t will be noticed, in
deed, that the abler newspapers of
the imperlalistic school content
themselves, at present, with denuncl-
alton Of The Cubans and assert Ions OF
Cuban incapaclty FOR self-goyern-
ment, striving TO work up u senti-
ment that will favor the postpone
ment OF our withdrawal from the
island until we have assisted" and
"taught" the Cubans TO establish a
"stable government. or course,the
idea is that after pretended 'proba-
tion" we shall declare the islanders
unit 10 govern themselves and shall
retain possession. This scheme Is
bad enough, but its advocates at least
have the decency TO recognize the
fact that the American people are not
ready TO openly and shamelessly
break their plIghted word. 1t is only
the small calibre sheets that are
found throwing OIL all disguise ana
plainly advocating a course OF ma
tlonal greed and diShonor, As for
Porto Rico, IL seems To be a foregone
conclusion that the island will he an
nexed. Ifu Is done with the consent
OF the inhabltT nts, we'll and goOdilt Is
valuable acquisition. II we give
no consideration 10 the wishes OF the
Porto Ricans, that is another story.

EDITORIAL OPINION

From All Sorts Of American Newspa-
pers With Occasional Comment.
The Washington correspondent OF
the New York Evening Post Is telling
some truths about imperialism that
must he very trying TO the editor Of
that paper, who still maintains with
the editor OF the Manchester Union
that the war Is horrid and its results
yillainous. The correspondence de-
clares that Imperialism rules az
Washington and that while 55 per
cent OF all the men at Washington are
imperialists, As per cent more are In
favor of an expansive policy without
saying how far 1t should 90. In adj
dltion to providing this information,
The Posts correspondent supplements
1t by telling who want Imperialism
and why, The recital is an interest
one; so interesting that we reproduce
IL here:
The elderly man who vent across
the ocean for the first time last sum-
mer wants IL possible for the Amerl-
can to see his own flag once in a while
in his travels about the world, The
man OF commerce wants annexation
that he may take his chances In the
wider markets for American goods.
The religious man wants annexation
for the advantages which IL would
give to Christian missions. The free>
trader falls into line because he be-
lieves that our dahbllng In colonies
will inevitably lead TO the same econ
omic policy as that Of Great Britain;
the protectohist watts Imperialism
because IL is a logical sequence OF the
home-market theory. The spokesman
WuubS lb DcCuuSc iic btllCNNo W WObiu
make places and plumber; the civil
service reformer wants IL because he
believes the larger responsibility
would compel the adoption OF an hon
est system OF governmental manage
ment. John II. Proctor, president OF
the civil service commission, is one of
the strongest lmperialists In town.
The man who has prOspered In the
world wants colonies as an outlet for
American capital and enterprise; the
poor fellow who has had an uphill
struggle since his twenty first .birth-
day sees Ina new empire the possibil-
ity OF new opportunities to retrieve
his ill-fortune. Then there is the
army and navy influence, always for
reaching out over the earth. Saint
and sinner, bond and free, all alike
are hungry for "territorial expansion"
