The fact and its editor fairly tears his hair
In predicting all kinds Ut evil for the Gov

Democratic officials as the Wilmington

Civil service did not protect Deputy Col.
lector Of Port William X. Finn. When
holding that position under Mr.. Geot,e

Port. Senator Gray used his Influence
at Washington to such an extent that Mr..
Finn was removed and Mr.. Ccmegys the

now protect Mr.. Comegys in his position.

Opposition to Expansion.

Certain par9ies are bitterly opposed to
the expansion policy recommended by
President Mckinley. When Jefferson
purchased the Louisiana territory from the
French, similar opposition was nanifest-
ed. Members Of Congress declared that 1t
afforded just grsund +, warrant the DISCO
ution OF the Union. That there was moth
ing In tho Constitution to warrant such
purchase. That 1t was never intended to
extend tho authority Of tho Government
over the mixed and untutor0d people re-
siding west Of the Mississippi, and just
such argumsnt:was then used a. 10 now DO.
ing used in regard to Hawaii, and the Phil
pplne Islands. The purchase was made
however, and several States carved out Of
1t, and since then California, New Mexico
and Alaska have been annexed, and the
Union still exists. 1t stood the strain Of
expansion wonderfully well and 30 it will
stand the present strain Notwithstanding
the men who are always predicting CON-
ng disaster. The position our country
has been pioced in BY the results Of the
war compels this Government to assume
responsibilities and 1t must bear them or
be dishonored In the face Of the different
nations of the earth. The croakers may
properly be classed among the owls and
bats or other fowls Of evil omen, and il the
progressive men OF tho day do their duty,
the Government Of our country will en-
dure long after such patriots will have
