And this Is our ambition and shall be

thousand and ninty nine is the number

But in order to cut short and much

FOR A GREATER AMERICA.

| OberIin's New President an Eloquent
Advocate of Expansion.
Toledo, Ohio, March 21.-John Henry
| Barrows, D. D., the newly elected president
of Oberlin College, delivered speech ad-
vocating expansion at a reception ten
dered him by the Congregational Club, at
Plymouth Church, in which he said:
One result of the late is this that a new
patriotism, now burns all the way from Alaska to
Florida and from Washington to Honolulu. We
are determined to bring the eastern and western
coasts of our country close together through the
digging of the Nicaragua Canal. We have for
saSen the policy of selfish isolation and come to
| -ealize our world mission in these days when
! God has made US world-p power
| We have not abandoned the Monroe doctrine.
| as European countries will discover if they at
| tempt to disregard it. We are drawing into
closer fellowship with the people of the Western
| Hemisphere. There must ever be peace and good
understanding with Canada and Mexico and the
South American Republics. These are great areas
| for our commerce and our ideas. The Central
American States have been described as .'dsor-
ganized military camps" The South American
States represent very imperfecty and poorly the
| fruits of liberty and self-government. Our pros
perty and our victory and supremacy will be
for their guidance, for their advantage, quite
much for our own.
| America has widened westward across. the Pa
| cifc, which is to be the chief highway of the
' worlds future commerce. In Hawaii and the
| I.adrones and the Philippines have stepping
stones for American ideas clear to the
| greatest and most populous side of the world
| My observations in the Orient have deep
| ened my convictions that the greatest event of
| the twentieth century is to be the uplifting Of
Asia, and thus the unitizing of the globe.
Heaven forbid that should go to the Phil
ppines in the spirit with which Spain went TO
| Cuba, or Holland to the Southeastern Asiatic
Archipelago. If hold them. and l don't see
how we can get rid of them. let hold them
as trust for civilization.
The Greater America must have greater states
men. OF course, shall need larger army
! and larger navy. We could hardly have bet
| ter one We must have better diplomatic serv-
| ice and national schools for training the repre-
| sentatives of the Republic. We must get rid OF
provinciaism and the spoils system. We must
| gain new respect for law, and strengthen the
| forces which make for good government in our
cities and commonwealths. We must subdue the
sefshness of corporations and make the greater
l also the better America.

TUESDAY, MARCH 81, 1899.
MIR. Bryan's Answer.

The publication Of the full text of Mr..
Bryan's letter to Mr. Perry Belmont, the
President Of the Democratic Club of New
York, only strengthens the opinion that
he is entirely right in making his reply
10 the invitation depend on the assurance
that the function is Democratic. The ban
Quet was fxed for the birthday of Thomas
jefferson for a purpose. II was not an ac
cident. The club, protesting to be Demo-
cratic. proposed TO honor the memory OF
one Of the fathers. 1t invited Democrats
oaly of national prominence, including
Mr.. Bryan, the candidate of the party for
the Presidency in the last campaign. 1t
was expected and asserted that the event
would have an influence on the Democ-
racy by bringing together persons who
had not been in recent accord.
When Mr.. Bryan received the invitation
he recalled the fact that the president
who signed it was a delegate to the Chi
cago Convention; that on his return 10
New York he announced his opposition
10 the candidate and the platform and said
Democratic success would be danger to
the country. In short, he ceased TO be a
can alone determine what constitutes De-
mocracy. 1t was entirely natural and
proper that Mr.. Bryan should want to
know whether the president of an alleged
Democratic club still antagonized the
party. He had no knowledge of a public
recantation of his heresies. On the re-
fusal of Mr. Belmont TO commit himself.
Mr.. Bryan was prohibited from accepting
the invitation. So was every other loyal
Democrat. AS Mr.. Bryan pointedly says:
Il believe in harnonizng personal differences.
hut differences in principle cannot be harmon
lied, and in my judgment, party advantage
IS 10 be derived from political communion be
Tween Jeffersonian Democrats who stand upon
the Chicago platform and the Republican allies
who masquerade Democrats between cam
paigns, in order TO give more potency TO their
betrayal of Democratic principles election
day"
For Democrats to accept the invitation
would be to say that candidates and plat
forms may be repudiated at will without
impairing the party standing of the bolt
ers; that delegate TO a convention who
is not satisfied with its work may de-
nounce his party and work for its defeat
and still retain his good standing and take
part in the party councils and apply for
the offices in its control. In short it
would be to break down every barrier
against treachery. A party organization
could not exist on such terms. 1t is the
right of any Democrat to leave his party
and fight against it, but when he does he
must cease TO rate himself as a Demo-
crat. We do not see how any fair minded
man can deny the soundness of Mr.. Bryan's
position. For Mr.. Bryan to affiliate with
those who aided in the election of Mr. Nc
Kinley would be betrayal Of all loyal
Democrats
