Imperialism and Taxes.

Imperialism dosen't cost anything is
one way OF putting it. Let US see about
that. We have had one year of it un-
der Mckinley and, Notwithstanding
war taxes aggregating $500, OO0, 900, the
treasury ran behind 800, O00, 900 the
year closing July l. In the old days Of
the republic that would have been
counted pretty steep. Ninety millions
of debt added to a hundred millions Of
fresh taxes! Yet President Mckinley
distinctly declared at the beginning OF
his administration that there could be
no permanent prosperity in business
when government was running behind.
And, pray, where has the money gone:
The laundering and disastrous cam
palgn in the Philippines tells the story.
Ana with this dreary and s%addening
story ome the demonstrated facts, on
the authority of the American cores
pendent, that this campaign has been
conducted on a plan Of systematic fab
rication or suppression Of facts.
Americans paid the money by the
million, they gave up their lives by
the thousand and yet were not coal
sidered worthy the truth.-Pittsburg
