MERCENARY EXPANSION.

= CONGRESSMAN BERRY of Kentucky, a
Democrat says:
- i am for expansion for purely commercial
reasons I want this country to gain new markets
Alter the war in the Philippines is over we will COM
mand the trade there"
This sentiment is echoed by such Southern Demo
cratic papers as the Atlanta Constitution, the Chata-
nooga Times and Memphis Appeal.
No argument is needed to expose the novelty OF
this motive as an American policy 1t is purely mer-
cenary Our wars heretofore waged and always sue
cessfuy have had ineffabe principle as their rea
son In every case the rights OF man, ideas rooted i'll
liberty OF conscience and OF person, have been the
stake for which our citizens have gladly borne arms
and cheerfullv died in battle. The mercenary feature
or the legitimate profits OF human opportunity were
entirely subsidiary and secondary Emerson put It IN
his poem at the Boston anniversary:
"Of what avail are pillow and sail,
Or land and life if freedom fal?'
We entered upon the Spanish resolving all
doubts in favor OF the humane reason and the rights OF
denied.
The declaration OF Mr. Berry changes all this. We
are to make military couquess extend trade, not
Tbertv to enlarge the profits OF commerce, not the
rights OF man. This requires that call upon our
young men 20 go hallway around the world, under
vertical sun and in an unirendy climate to die in

money not man. Let it be remembered that this view
is taken by those who favor the policy 1t IS not all
invention Of the anti -imperialiss, but deliberate
declaration OF the imperiasts themselves If the PEG
pie agree to it, and bear the consequent drain of life
and treasure, it will go on No one can resist that
which majority of eighty millions of people agree
&c do.
But to do it is inconsistent with the past genius and
character of the American people. We have been the
most willing fighters in history, when the stake was
ideal and sentimental But asked TO lay down
our lives for the sale of pork and -four The poetic
principle which inspires heroism in is lacking and

A Beverly Mass. correspondent Of
NeWspaperdom writes to that publica.
tion thus:
The pastor of the Dane Street Con-
gregational Church, Rev. Il. j. Van
Horn, has demonstrated that church
advertising pays. Mr.. Van Horn. be-
fore coming to Beverly, was located out
IN Ohio, and became embued with
some OF tho Western hustle, and he
rather astonished his good New Eng
land deacons one Sunday, when he in
formed them that he wanted 500 TO
spend in advertising. In making this
request ne said there was no reason
why, instead of 100, they should not
nave QUO people present at the evening
service ut the church. On the follow.
ing Saturday the advertising matter
appeared; but there is still suspicion
that the pastor paid for it himself, for
awhile at least. AT first he began with
Flyers and printed cards, which were
left at the homes and scattered about
the streets. Then he wenla vary it
with quarter-sheet poster hung in
the store windows, each announcing
his subject for the following Sunday
evening, and inviting the public to
come and hear him. These subjects
were never sensational, nor were his
sermons. The result OF this advertising
began to show in an increasing at
tendance at the meetings, and a count
was made every Sunday and the num-
Der announced the following Sunday.
So well did the plan work that at the
next annual parish meeting it was
voted to take collection at tho Sunday
evening service, and allow the Rev.
Mr.. Van Horn to take it for his own
use in advertising and for securing
special musical talent for the services.
About this time, now nearly two years
ago. he abandoned the flyers and took q
six inch space in the Evening Times on
Saturday, and has continued it ever
since We give him special position
across the top Of the fifth page, one
inch deep, and people now look as
regularly for his announcement rs they
Go for the local news in the paper.
The result of this advertising. together
with the very practical sermons that he
breaches, is that instead of the 800 that
ne hoped TO get out at the services, the
number more frequently reaches 1850,
and is seldom less than 1000, y

Ing 10 position to buy wheat cheaper

be says: "All these oil gne, including the
advance IN freight rates seems to
operate against the producer. II the
farmers could at the start keep their
wheat in their own elevators and be able
to say to the competing roads"how much
will you haul our wheat to market for?"
They could get better rates but now
the producer puts bis property at once
IN the hands of middle men and OF
course must I'1y his charge for handl-
ing the grain." Mr. Beck says the win
ter wheat crop OF Pennsylvania will not
equal 60 per cent OF an average crop.
