Our Historic Colonial Policy.
Chicago Inter Ocean

w. Chicago Inter Ocean.
x disciple of lIegel divided
the human race into three
claases--"those who are Hegeli-
arts and glory in it; those who
gre Hegelians but deny it, aud
THOSE who are such but do not
sn much IA know there ever
was a Hegcl." Much the
same is true of the AAerican
pedDle, from the colonial point
.f view. This country has al
way. had colonies, and never
thought Of surrendering any Of
them, small or great. For
come reason. however, we
never applied the name of
colony to any of colonial
POSSESSIONS. Perhaps. having
been colonies ourselves, there
was an unconscious prejudice
against the use of the term.
The colonial policy of this
country begin here in Illinois.
1t was on Illinois soil that the
first effort was made by the
American people to establish a
government without the con-
sent of the governed, or, rather.
to disestablish one and es-
tablish another. Clark's
capture IF Fort Gage laid the
cornerstone of American col
onialism. That was 12O years
ago. The French settlers ON
the Illinois side of the Nissis-
sippi river knew nothing about
our Declaration, of indie
pendence,and had no sympathy
with our war with England. It
is safe to nay that no Illinois
men of that time wished to
come under. our. flag. 1t is
equally safe to say that no
American of that day, except
the Tories, would have enter
tanned the idea of consulting
their wishes in the matter.
From that day to this the
colonial problem, is one for or
another, has been before the
American people.
The Republican party was
horn in the throes Of one Of
these problems. Territory is
'is only another name for "col-3
ony," and when Stephen A.
Douglas proposed that our
colonies should foster Or forbid
SLAVERY within their borders, as
each might zee At, q new
political party sprang into
existence, having for its dis
tinctiye policy the declaration

there has for some monthz past been
IN active course Of speculation IN
various channels respecting the prob

put with benefit to mank!nd. The
X-rays cane IN for their SHARE Of this
sort Of discussion, much Of which was
uniformed, some CT it harmful tc the

some Of it suggestive. Liquid air has
been hailed rs g great power agency
md as refrigera1t, capable in either
capacity Of revo!utichizing existing
methods. Later developments have
served to cast doubt somewhat upon
these sweeping claims. 1t is found
that there is serious difficulty IN the
storing Of the power, with an alter

plosions or Ct suffering less through

There is little doubt now in scientific
minds that this new agency will prove
of value in many branches OF their
