The Good of a European War.

The strained relations between Great
Britain and Russia may culIninate in
an armed conflict. II they come to-
gether it would be impossible for the
other nations to hold themselves aloof.
There would be a new map TO be made
of China when the war ended, and all
the powers of Europe would want to
help make it. Such war would be OF
long duration. for future as well as
present supremacy would be the OBJ
iective point of the struggle But
such 4 war would bring wide disaster
to Europe, no matter what the final
outcome might be, and to some extent,
at least, the United States would share
in the misfortunes, but along moral
rather than commercial and political
lines.
From purely business point of par
ticipation in the effects. such a war is
exactly what the United States needs.
1t would stimulate trade in every
channel. and profits would accrue from
everywhere. Such a war would in
crease the profits of the farmers alone
on this years crops twice over, If not
more. From their surplus wheat from
this years crop their revenue from
exports would be increased perhaps as
much as $500. 000. 900, to say nothing
about the gain from higher prices for
home consumption, which would be
fully as much, If not more than the
additional profits accruing from the

The Controlling Condition.

There is no natural reason why the
people of the United States should not
enjoy a practically unbounded pros
perity. Our natural resources are
such that, if utilized. our advantages
over all other commercial nations
would in a short time give US a COM
manding position, and make Us the
creditor nation of the world
Within ou- borders are found ex-
haustless stores Of iron, coal. and Pc
troIeum. We produce annually more
gold and silver than any other coun-
try. Our wheat fields are co-extensive
with the nations boundaries. and We
possess the only great corn belt on the
globe. In the production of cotton
nature has given Us a monopoly. fur
nish1ng as We do seventy eight per
cent. of the worlds product. We have
vast areas of the best grazing lands,
and our forest will produce unexcelled
timber for many years to come Our
climate Is both varied and salubrious,
and our people are educated, indus
trious, and frugal. Our political in
stitutious are the freest and the purest
on earth, and, from moral point of
view, our people will not suffer by
comparison with any other of either
ancient or modern times.
All that have been enumerated are
necessary conditions of progress and
prosperity. and would seem to COM
prise all the essentials 20 wealth.

bly, tend to make the United States the

suppresslng the Cuban Patriots.

The Sugar Trust and its allies in
New York city propose to annex Cuba
by putting down the patriots and or
ganizing the pro-Spanish elements of
the towns.
We see this policy illustrated in
practice at Santiago, where Garcia, q
native of Santiago province, is shut
out Of the city, while Spaniards are
kept in Office as representatives Of the
Mckinley administration.
The pro-Spanish-Tory element of
Cuba will thus be won over to the Re-
publican party and by the aid of carpet
baggers backed by ..immune" bodies of
Afro-Amerlcans under Mr.. McKinley's
captain-general. they will carry out
Republican policies in Cuba.
That Democrats. calling themselves
leaders and practical politicians,
should try TO commit the Democratic
party to an advance endorsement of
what they know will be the Repnbli
can policy-and such a policy!-is a
most mournful thing surely,
Always. at every crisis, such things
have happened to the Democrats. But
still the party lives and it will live.
No folly and no treachery can over
come the love of justice which is the
man nature. And in spite of all its
blunders. of all the crimes committed
against it, Democracy stands for JUS
tice and is as immortal as the love of
iustice.-Misstssippt Valley Democrat

MeMinlev's Finance. "

The exports for the year ending
June 30th, reached 81, PSI 100000 an
increase of about 5000, 100000 over
last year. while imports declined from
s742, 900, 600 to S616. .000,OO
This difference between exports and
imports makes what is called "a fay-
orable balance of trade" of S615, ,000,-
900.
Supposedly, we are thus 1915, ,000.-
900 ahead, but as matter of fact we
got back only S1O4. 900, 900 net in gold.
This we kept because of the famine
abroad, which ''moved" our crops at
prices which we can not get in an or
dinary year.
The immense difference between the
$104, 600. 600 in gold we did get, and
the S616. 900, 600 balance in our
favor stands for the results of for
eign ownership of America. So long
as our bonds are controlled in London:
so long as the securities of our nation
al banks, our oreweries, our factories,
our mills and of our trusts are held
abroad, and used to control our na-
tioual policies, the apparent ''favora-
BILE balance of trade" must remain a
mere delusion.
Under these policies the consuming
capacity of agriculture is SO reduced
that in normal years such as last year
was for Southern growers of five cent
cotton. the farmer has hardly any
money to invest in domestic manufac-
lures. The demand for home goods
is so cut down that the unused surplus
is exported and sold at a loss abroad
in order to keep up prices at home.
Ruinous as this is, it is the best the
Republican policy of restriction can do
for the export trade.
Under this policy Of cutting down
imports, as soon as we get gold from
abroad, it is promptly locked up in the
treasury and held there to prevent it
from circulating
Our farmers have brought in this
year S104. 600. 600 net in foreign gold.
Mr.. Mckinley has locked it up, and
he is keeping it locked up.
Uncle John Sherman, at his worst.
if was said that gold reserve of $780,
900, 900 was ample. Under Mckinley
the hoard is increased to 5000, o00, 900,
to include the surplus of foreign gold
brought in by our farm products.
The money was urgently needed for
the Spanish war. but rather than allow
it to 60 into circulation to weaken the
hold of the Wall street banks on the
currency, the administration forced a
new issue OF bonds
Such ..fnanciering" cannot be ex-
planned as the result of mental weak
ness II is not an absurdity because it
is crime-MiSsissipps Falley Demo

foreign demand. And not only from
wheat would the American farmers
gather increased profits, but from
every other product of the farm. A
general war in Europe running through
two crop years would leave American
farmers free from debt, and good
surplus of money TO invest in improv-
ing their farms, the breed of their live
stock, and permit the indulgence in
luxuries which are strangers to them.
Necessarily such a condition of rural
prosperity would fill the channels of
trade and traffic 10 overhowing. Ev-
cry occupation would profit largely.
1t would be a season of marvellous
prosperity for all who desired TO par
ticipate in it. But the greatest bene-
ficiaties would be the protected indus
tustries, because the Dingley tariff law
forces the public to pay them exorbi-
tant prices. The law was so framed
that il would increase the annual value
of the products of the favored indus
tries about $500, 600, 900 under a nor
NAL demand for them. Such war as
| spoken of would increase the consump-
ton Of them greatly because the peo-
pie. especially the farmers, would be
in financial condition to buy more lib
orally. which in turn would increase
the net profits of the class which the
| Dingley law favors at the expense of
the general public. Unfortunately,
under the conditions which such a war
would produce for America. the people
would be likely to forget in their pros
perity that they were being robbed of
not less than $500, 900, 900. and per-
haps very much more every year 10

enormously wealthy. But the people
owe it to themselves 10 think of these
things, and think seriously.-K. C..
