Living and Dying Nations. !"

In last weeks issue of this paper we
published communication from "Mr.
Frederick Theo Mayor" criticising an
editorial that appeared in our issue OF
the week before, entitled "Liying and
Dying Nations" Mr.. Theo Mayor en-
| tiers the lists as the avowed champion
of justice and truth with vigor that
does credit to his zeal, if not to his dis
erection. We are accused of wander
ing from the text, introducing irrele-
want matter, reaching lame and impo-
tent conclusions, and of displaying q
deplorable lack of knowledge and want
of logic-quite an imposing array of
literary shortcomings Cor single arti-
Gle.
It would have been vastly more COM
forting had he condescended to men
ton in what particular we wandered
from the text, what fact we misstated,
or where our logic halted. 1t would
have enabled US to avoid literary sins
of the same kind in the future. Per-
haps. like the lands of England, his
time was too valuable, or the weather
was unpropitious for more literary eff
fort than was necessary 10 our undoing.
His most serious objection is to the
statement that England is one of
those nations that exhibit most clearly
evidences of decay" We see nothing In
Mr.. Frederick Theo Mayors article to
justify US in changing our opinion.
We claim that no nation can be in a.
healthful condition whose producing
classes are not prosperous. The island
OF Great Britain has no food producing
class worthy of the name. The yeo-
many of England have almost disap-
peared from her soil. We insist that
the condition of a country is unfortu-
nate whose population outruns the
capacity OF its soil to feed it, and the
bulk of whose soldiers and sailors are
aliens. Where such conditions pre-
vail in a nation, that nation is a para
| site without power to support itself.
That the Kingdom of Great Britain and
Ireland now approximates this state of
affairs a glance at statistics will show.
In the first place, the British army
| is largely composed of alien races
people who have no special interest in
the British Empire, and but little sym
patty with English aspirations-such
soldiers as would have been classed
under the Roman Empire as auxiliar-

The Jefferson City Tribune charges
that Springfield is preparing to "hog''
the State Convention delegates and
visitors. If this be true, the Spring
field of to-day stands in strong contrast
to the Springfield of twenty years ago
with all the advantage in favor of
the latter. The REGISTER refuses 10
believe that the beautiful gazelle Of
the Ozarks has evoluted into a mottled
everyday skunk. Should we, in the
end, prove to be the victim of mistaken
confidence We shall make ample ac-
acknowledgement, discard the theory and
take up the condition.

the University Registrar at Columbia.
Examinations for admission will be given

We see the Associated Press agents

contempt for the Cuban insurgents.
whether as citizens or soldiers. Ac-
cording to these newsgatherers the
Cuban will neither work nor fight.
This, notwithstanding he "stood off,
the armies OF Spain for nearly four
years, unaided, aud hampered by that

right only when backed up by might!
Are the A. P. agents schoOlmasters
whose appointed task it is to educate
the people of the United States into the
belief that Cubans are incapable OF
self-government and unworthy of liber-
ty. in order that the solemn declara-
tion 'of Congress against annexation
may be safely ignored? 1t looks that
way to the discriminating observer of

THE judicial convention at De Soto,
after being in session three days, last
Friday at noon nominated Frank r.
bearing OF Jefferson county as the
Democratic candidate for Circuit
Judge. The total number OF ballots
cast was 1885. The Washington coun-
ty delegation after sticking to Eversole
all through the contest, finally voted
for bearing and terminated the strug-
gle. In order 10 get the convention
away from IrontOn the Washington
county crowd promised the jefferson
delegation, that if they would vote
with them on that proposition that
Washington would agree to vote for
bearing whenever they left Eversole.
They practically kept their word but
it was because the opportunity never
presented itself when they could gain
anything by doing otherwise. The
politicians that owned the Washington
uclCSotlOu udbOA oOSu' Sotsy AnOi z
lhan they did Frank bearing. so the
latter came out victorious. We be-
lieved and still believe that Joshua
Carly should have been given the
nomination. He is the peer OF any
man in the contest; and the southern
end of the circuit that will have to
furnish the Democratic votes to elect
the nominee was entitled to recogni-
ton, the northern end OF the circuit
having furnished the candidate for
thirty years. But Democratic con-
vention has said otherwise ana that is
sufficient for US. AS to Mr.. bearing
the REGISTER has said before and takes
pleasure in saying now, he is an hon.
est man. a good lawyer. and loyal
Democrat. The people may rest as
sured that with him on the bench,
eveu-handed justice will be admins
tered TO litigants-rich and poor alike
lin this circuit.

AGRICULTRAL depression is slowly
depopulating the rural districts of Ger
many, as we'll as those of other Eu-
ropean nations. Each of these nations
is anxiously looking for a swarming
ground for the people crowded from
its soil, where the conditions of living
will be endurable. and it at the same
time can retain its sovereignty over
them. Emigration from Germany now
means loss of population to the Ger
man Empire. The children of the
Italian emigrant cease to be Italian.
These nations desire that where their
people go they shall carry the flag of
their country, thereby extending its
boundaries and increasing its influence.
If the present financial and CONNER
cial system is to continue. even for a
short time, outlets for EurOpe's surplus
populations must be found speedily,
and in the colonies founded the in
fuence of the parent country must
predominant. Consequently the ma
tions of the Old World are reaching
out for all the thinIy populated por-
tiOns of the earth they can obtain,
whether by force or fraud. South
America is ideal colonizing ground.
It's population is sparse. It's soil is of
almost linitless fertility, so that it
could become d stOrehouse for the
teeming millions that Europe is expa-
triating from their homes. The Ger
man can now emigrate to South Amer
lea, if he wishes to, but he ceases to
be German in so doing, and this
does not suit the German bureaucracy.
They would seize upon the Amazon
Valley, or all of Brazil, if necessary,
as they have seized upon portion OF
the Chinese Empire, were it not for
the Monroe Doctrine, They realize
that any attempt of this kind would
result, under present conditions, in a
fight with Uncle Sam, and they also
realize that that old gentlemen is an
ugly customer to go up against, and
are not willing to risk it. So long as
the United States casts the shadow OF
the Monroe Doctrine from Point Bar
row to Cape Horn, Spanish America
will remain intact; but we must be
consistent. We must let European
and Asiatic territory entirely alone.
Old World diplomats could afford to
pay Mark Hanna and Steve Elkins sew
eral millions of money, besides cOnsid-
cradle sums to other members of the
Administration, to have the United
States hold on to the Philippines. 1t
would open the door of South Ameri-
ca. 1t would make the Monroe Doc
trine, which locks this continent
against them, of none effect. ANY
move upon the part of the United
States looking to the abrogation of the
Monroe Doctrine would be an act of
treason. The Hawaiian islands may
possibly be within our sphere of infiu-
ence, but it will be impossible to pre-
serve the Monroe Doctrine and retain
the Philippines. We can hardly be-
lieve that the Mckinley administration
is weak enough to be inveigled into a
contest over these islands. At the
same time, if any mailed hand inter-
feres with them while they are in our
possession, Surgeon General Dewey
will promptly amputate it.

AN APPEAL.

AN APPEAL
By direction of the last convention of
the United Confederate Veterans, the
trustees of the Confederate Memorial
Association send forth this earnest plea
for aid in building our Memorial Tenn
pie" Battle Abbey, in which shall be
gathered relics to tell to the world, and
specially tour children's children to the
remotest generations" of the valor and
deeds of our comrades, the soldiers of the
South. and OF our noble women, who,
amid UNPARALLELED sacrifices, cheered and
sustained MS during the storm of war;
and in which shall also be preserved, in
archive records, the true history of our
Southland; of her statesmen; her armies
and navy; of her battles, her victories
and her defeats.
At the last reunion of the Confederate
Veterans, a resolution was adopted, call
ing upon each camp to subscribe to this
glorious purpose in proportion TO its
membership. Each camp of thirty mem
beers was asked to raise not less than
IS; each camp of fifty members not less
than $40; each camp Of 100 members.
not less than SO, and each camp of POO
or more members, not less than $50.
1t was the purpose of our late presi-
dent the late General w. ID. Chipley,
Of Florida, to personally supervise the
ingathering of the fund thus asked for,
but his untimely death prevented.
1t is an oportune time, even in the eX-
cited present, to make this call; and hope
to report to then ext reunion, ut Nash
vile. on the both of July, that our Me-
mortal Institute is an accomplished fact
Now is the time to act
Division, brigade and camp command
ers are urged to see that each camp re-
spends to this call.

surviving comrade lend his aid.

the deeds Ofyour heroic fathers.
