BULLY BILLY.

The influence of the victory which
Germany won over France in 1870, an
nexing to it's territory Alsace and Lor-
raine, has been many times multiplied
by the vain little Billy who wears the
German crown. He has dwelt upon the
success of German arms twenty-eight
years ago until he has come to believe
that Germany on land or sea is abso-
lutely invincible. This is probably the
secret of his meddlesome policy pur
sued in Manila bay. The opinion that
he has nourished is largely cultivated
by the German press, which through
out Germany is almost without excep-
ton hostile to the United States. The
German manufacturers and exporters
are complaining of the falling off of
their trade in the United States as if
they expected that the hand that had
been feeding them for many years
would keep right on feeding them, no
matter how badly they had lacerated
it with their literary teeth.

FOE NAVAL SUPREMACY.

In anticipationof the early annexa-
ton of Hawaii, the authorities at
Washington have taken steps to send
information promptly to the Hawaiian
government. 1t is important that this
information shall be sent at an early
date for the reason that the Hawaiian
legislature will soon close its present
session. The Hawaiian legislature
viii have to act on the measure now
pending in congress in the event that
annexation shall be accomplished
through that bill. 1t is hoped, there
fore, that the members of the senate
who are now opposing annexation
will, recognizing the inevitable, with
draw their objections. Annexation
should be accomplished speedily, if it
is to be accomplished at all
The annexation of the Hawaiian Is
lands is not necessarily involved in
any question of imperialism. 1t is
rather to be looked upon in its relation
to the development of the United
States as a naval power.

HE EAGLE AS a PRoTECTIoN1sT

AS General Hancock declared, the
tariff question is a local issue. He was
laughed at and jeered, but no truth is
more obvious now than that it is
local, if not a sectional question.
The Eagle was hauled over the Goals
for standing up for western interests
during the tendency Of the Mckinley
bill, some Republican echoes, posing as
editors. going so far as to denounce
the Eagle as a free trader. The Ha-
waiian annexation question, with its
vast sugar interests, is turning UP
some free traders who would like to
take the protection shoot for the time
being They find themselves in the
same predicament as the Eagle when 1t
was demanding protection for western
hides, etc. The union of the Hawaiian
Islands, Porto Rico, and all or a part Of
the Philippines with the United States
would go far toward putting sugar and
tobacco, as we'll as several tropical
fruits. on the free list to stay. If Cuba
should come into the Union, in any
way. the force of this statement would
be greatly increased. 1t would have
the effect Of striking off the duty on
products which yield a considerable
part of the entire customs revenue of
of the country. Yet the most strenu-
Gus opposition to any such extension
Of the territory of the republic comes
from men who are ardent free traders.
On the other hand, most of the leading
advocates Of an annexation policy are
protectionists.

Topeka Capital: The Capital would like
to hear a Populist explanation of the
radical change in the manufacturing in
dustries OF the country How does il
happen that instead of the paralysis OF
industry OF two years ago, running back
20 1882 when Harrisons administration
was beaten and Democratic congress
elected, exports of domes tic manufactures
from the United tSates now exceed those
Of any year ON record? How do reforrners
of the free trade and fat and free silver
sort connect this condition with the hard
times among manufacturers during the
Wilson bill, OF which the Hon VIM ].
Bryan was one of the trainers in the
house? And how do they account for the
singular cofnc dence that the only years
that can be compared in the last decade
with the present for large exports of man
ufactured goods were the years of Harrf-
sons administration and the Mckinley
tariff? Has any Populist or Democrat
given any reason yet for the fact that in
place Of destroying foreign trade, as they
predicted the Mckinley tariff was bound
to do, II built up foreign trade 70 the ex-
tent of extending every American market
abroad and capturing considerable of the
best trade Of England? Why did English
men denounce the Mckinley tariff? Why
did they rejoice over Bryan's and Will
sons tariff and give Mr.. Wilson ban
quet at the London board of trade? And
why do they denounce the Dingley tariff?
Do Populists think that the Wilson tar
ifs destruction Of American exports Of
manufactures, built UP by the Mckinley
BILL and the Dingley tariffs revival Of this
trade, destroyed by the Wilson bill, have
anything to do with it?
On the whole, the best thing for the
Populists 10 do in the face of dollar wheat.
banner exports Of manufactures and revi-
val Of prosperity on all sides, accompanied
by immense imports of gold and large in
crease in sound currency based on the
gold standard, would probably be to take
to the woods. There is nothing in Popu-
list philosophy that can account for these
miracles.

convinced that the Wichita Eagle should
be placed in supreme command of our en-
tire army and navy-if not of the whole
universe. It is the only authority on top
OF this green earth that knows all about
it-just what should be done, and how.
and where. We have suspected this for
a long time, but it grows every day more
and more apparent Just a few days ago
