The Intelligeneer some time ago
called attention to the action OF the
southern cotton splnners at recent
meeting they held 1t Charlotte, N. G..
IN adopting resolutions endorsing the
Philippine policy Of the admlnigtra-
don. It was hard blow 70 ant-ex-
panslonists, and destroyed several illu-
sions entertained blythe Bfyanites. It
remained. however. for Senator Petit
grew to express the disgust and disap-
.polntment Of the so-called anti-imper-
Iallsts. The resolutions adopted by the
cotton splnners declared in favor Of ex-
pauslon, the Nicaragua canal, a larger
navy and the open door" policy in
China. They plainly said that the south
needed markets In the orient for her
products. Being largely interested in
one Of the greatest southern industries.
they favored keeping the Philippines,
or any other policy that would give en-
larged markets for cotton and cotton
goods. Copies Of these resolutions were
sent to all members Of Congress.
Senator Pettigrew wrote savage re-
buke to the cotton spinners. He sarcas-
ticalIy inquired what they knew about
the Nicaragua canal ''why should the
people Of the United States be taxed to
construct an lsthmus canal" asked Pet
tigrew. "or to place thousands of miles
Of cable in the bottom Of the Pacific, or
to prosecute with yigor war in dis
tant country, simply that the mercen-
airy hopes Of the cotton spinners Of
your locality may be realized?"
The Chicago Inter ocean character
ICES this outbreak on Pettlgrew's part
as ridiculous. and adds:
The southern Democrats are remem-
berlng thas before 1850 their party was
always for expansion. Southern news
papers and commercial bodies have rec
orded for some time an increasing DIS
position to break away from Popullst
leadership on the question OF expansion;
Southern politicians have perceived
this tendency, but have hoped to be
able TO pursue an opportunlst policy,
to change front gradually and to avoid
a present rupture with their Populist
allies. Pe.tigrew's hectorlng tends to
force the issue to a manner decidedly
unpleasant to many southern members
of Congress. Their constituents are
calling upon them to declare themselves
whether they are for or against the best
interests OF the south. Many southern
congressman doubtless wish that I'etti-
grew would go to the Bad Lands OF
Dakota and stay there.

The Boston Post. Democratic Jour
nal in a hnlf-hearted way comnends
President McKinley's treatment Of
trusts in his message, but objects to
his discrimination between good and
bad Industrial combinations, which is
as much as to say there are no good
trusts. In commenting on this conten-
tion the washington Post very aptly
snys: NOTHING is more harmful to a
state than lndiscrIminate legislative as
Taults on corporations. That reckless
warfare on capital has wrought serious
injury to a number OF commonwealth.
Although the courts may be depended
ON to annul legislation that is violative
Of fundamental law, time and money
are required for the litigation that such
acts necessItates. Meanwhile, menaced
capital betakes itself to a more con-
Qenlai environment. A study Of gTnns-
or and PopulIst assaults on enterprise

ance Of a wise and Just discrimination
between what is Injurious and what ID

ntlons. And who is prepared to assert
that all trade combines In all thelr
methods arc violating either economic,
statutory. fundamental or moral law?
To reduce the cost OF production by
dispensing with supernultieS is as de-
senaIhls as the substitution Of the ma
chine for the man. Each Of the two
methods restricts trade because II pre-
vents men from selling their labor
But legislation against either would DO

war at It's best-and there Is no COM
paratlve good in it--Is not a picnic. The
dress parade and review are but SYM

ties Of armed conflict were best de-
scribed by the late General Sherman

with no relative profane Significance of
expression. In going into battle men
lose their humanity. They are the
automatons Of frenzy or a fear. Their
object is 10 kill. Brutally put, that is
what they are paid for. In close quar-
tiers 1t Is either kill or be killed, and 1t
is not surprising that we hear Of some
acts that ptrike US. who are far re-
moved from the uncomfortable excite
ment Of the field, as particularly re-
voting. What the ever-ready critic
would do under the same circumstances
never occurs to him. He deplores what
some one else has done whose feelings
and Indictment he has never exper-
fenced. How, then, can he be a just
Judge?
There is much talk of Civilized
warfare" but IN the final accounting
war is war. BY strategy or legalized
murder each side strives for the VIC
tory. But for all this there is supposed
to be an ethical side Of war, and judg-
ing by such a standard we fear the
British troops In South Africa are open
to condemnation for revengeful bar
barities alleged to have been practiced.
During the operations of the Ameri-
can army In Cuba we complained OF the
Spanish sharpshooters firing on Red
Cross arnbulances and those who were
succoring The wounded on the field OF
battle. Therefore how can we refrain
from raising a protest against the ac-
ton Of the British Lancers at Glands
laagte? According to reports their con-
duct towards defenseless Beers was the
very refinement of brutality. These ru-
mors were aggravated by the cruelty
boastful letter said to have been writ
ten by a Lancer. who related: "one
Boer begged me hard to spare him. but
my answer was, You -! Here's
your mercy!' I shot him dead and did
not take the trouble to lance him. No
doubt you win think this cruel. but Il
YOU had seen as much Of them as
have YOU would not saw plenty In
johannesburg before the war began"
An eyewitness adds to this testimony
Of cruelty in writing from Ladysmlth;
ut was a sight to see the Lancers
charge. When they got within one hun
dred yards the Beers threw up Their
arms and begged for mercy. They
Jumped OF their horses and got on thelF
knees and prayed for mercy"
These are matters which the British
war ONCE does not publish in the offieial
bulletins, but coming as they do with
such clrcumstautlallty Of detail from
participants and boosters they must be
given credcnce until they are denied
It Is a painful picture Of blood and re-
yenge, and for the sake and honor Of

The kentucky Decision.

The action Of the Kentucky election
oHlcials in awarding the certificates to
the Republican candidates is exploited
by the Democratic press as an unusual
act Of virtue on their part They make
much Of the fact that the oficlala per-
formed what was their plain duty. and
1t would appear from the tenor Of the
aforesaid Democratic press, and their
insistance IL holding up to the admir-.
ing gaze OF the country this lonely act
Of simple justice. the election officials
Of Kentucky assumed a virtue they did
not possess. In other words, they were
compelled to perform a righteous act
against their will. However much cred
1t is due the election boards and courts
Of Kentucky for doing that which was
right, the prominence given their ae-
lions seeks to distract the attention Of
the public from the attempted crime of
Goebel and his coparceners in an Inc
fanny without a parallel in the rather
odorous history Of corrupt election
methods OF the country.
The conspiracy that was defeated at
the polls had its inceptlonln the vicious
ELECTION law which Goebel stood sponsor
for, and which he railroaded through a
Democratic legislature not, however.
without the earnest protests Of Eum-
her Of honorable minded editors Of the
..Blue Grass" state, notably the Louis
vile Courier Journal, which denounced
the law as blot of Infamy on the stat
ute books. Having been instrumental
in securing the passage Of this out
rageously partisan measure, Mr.. Goe-
bel sought to be the sole beneficiary
Of that act. Not being able to gain the
nomination for governor by honest
methods he accomplished his purpose
BY flchlng 1t from an unwilling body
Of men. A large portion of the fair
minded Democracy of Kentucky resent
ed the methods employed by Goebel
and combining with the Republicans
defeated the conspIratoE at the polls.
Every known subterfuge and technic-
atty was employed by GOebel to defeat
the expressed will Of the people. There
was no intamy so deep that he could
not touch the bottom and drag forth
the dregs Of the settings Of the most
ingenious inlquIty. Those Democrats
who supported him in his nefarious
schemes were Of that faction closely
allied to Bryan. The attempt OF this
horde Of political burglars to steal the
Governorship OF Kentucky has nOr been
eaualled for bare-faced theft in the
history Of states. The intention still
rests as a stain on the Democratic
party Of Kentucky. That the consplr-
acy did not succeed was not owing to
any particular virtue possessed by the
Democratic ofElcIals and courts Of Ken
lucky, but simply to the administration
Of justice which ought to be expected
and demanded Of al! such officials
Commentator for the mere perform
ance Of a palpable duty IS poor praise
and the Democratic press in hernldinG
their action as a remarkable working
Of the honesty Of human judgment but
thlnly wells the underlying feeling Of
surprise that they were capable Of at
honest expression of their minds. In
fact 1t appears as an apology to the
country for doing right.
