that when the editor of n local paper

General Nelson A. Miles address
at the Omaha exposition was not at
all suggestive of sympathy with the
administration in its imperialistic
policy. In concluding his talk he
said:
''Prosperity of community, of a
people, of II great nation, like the
great and mighty republic, brings
grave responsibility in our duties
toward the people of other countries.
There are other elements that we
can export besides the produts of the
field and foundry. We can export
our sympathy and charity to the
people of other countries who are
struggling tor liberty and enlight-
eminent. We can impress all with
whom we have relationship with our
high and unimpeachable sense of
honor and justice, and as magnani-
nifty has been one Of the gIories of
American citizenship and govern
ment IN the past, so it can afford to
be in our relationship with other
people in the future. In order that
we may maintain not only the repu-
tation for commercial enterprise, but
the higher and nobler character of
a free enlightened and generous peo-
pie, inspired and actuated with the
unselfish purpose OF maintaining our
position as nation of sovereign cit
liens, we should have heart full of
generosity and sympathy for those
who are endeavoring to emulate our
example,"
