ONE YEAR OF EXPANSION.

Sunday was the anniversary Of the be
ginning Of eur war with Spain, and it
rounded out a year full of striking events
and new policies From humble be-
ginning rs war of humanity" in behalf
Of the Cuban patriots, the contest speedily
developed, at the will of the President,
into quest for foreign empire. Porto
Rico was annexed Cuba became protec-
toratc and the PHILIPPINES were bought, to
say nothing of Guam. which was merely
seized. An anomaly appears in the fact
that that though peace has been made
with Spain. hoStilitipS continue now after
the year is out on n larger scale than
ever Our allies in the war with Spain
are now our enemies, and we are doing
vastly more fighting with the Filipinos
than we did with the Dons. Instead of
aiding men rightly struggling to be free,
as we profcssed to do in Cuba, we are
now in LuZon a1owcd,y aiming to bring
the Philippine patriots into subsection.
The doctrine that governments exist
properly only by the consent of the govern
ed has been abandoned. Such progress
as this was obliged to be expensive. We
have paid some $5OO,000,OOO for our fun,
and war expenses are still swallowing up
the millions Baltimore San.

OUR MARVELLOUS FOREIGN
TRADE.

The story of the foreign trade of the
United States for the year 1898 is a
marvellous one. says the Philadelphia
Times" Domestic exports reached
the total of sl,2l0, 29l, 9l3, while the
imports were but S6lG,O49,G94 In
other words, we sold nearly two dol
lars worth of goods for every dollars
worth purchased abroad, leaving to
our credit in the entire transaction .he
princely sum of 1894 ,242, 259 as
against s,277 .2Sl in the previous
year.
Agricultural exports led the list, of
course, the total of the roducts of
agriculture sent abroad reaching
1888, 507.942. The farmers of the
United States do indeed feed and
clothe good many people besides
those living within American borders,
and the impression would be easily
gained from these figures that we are
nation of farmers chiefly. The fac
tories, mines and forests of the coun-
try contributed about $350,OO0,00 to
the national output, and it is a
very neat sum and the largest from
these sources ever derived from ex-
ports.
The lesson of these figures is one OF
the greatest encouragement. While
we cannot expect our crops to be good
and those of our foreicn ncighbors
poor every year yet it is a fact that
in good years and bad the people

pend upon us to make up their def
cieHees, which means that American
wheel Form, cotton and meat and diary
products will find constantly grow
ing> demand in Europe, Asia, Africa
and the islands of the sea.

TO GET OUT THE VOTE.

The last week of the municipal cam
paign has opened, says the Baltimore Sun,
with the leaders of each of the leading
parties protesting great confidence in the
success of their respective tickets.
Republicans are having poll made by
their ward workers Of the voters in every
precinct. Reports have come in from
few wards. and the leaders announce that
the result of the poll is strongly favorable
to the republican ticket. Figures are,
however, tabooed at the present time and
will not be announced until later in the
week, when it is thought their effect will
be greater upon the public. The chief
concern now among leaders of both par
on election day In former years election
day was general holiday. The general
election day is still a holiday, but no pro-
vision was made in the law that the NUM-
1t will not be one. The banks and public
offices and all the large mercantile and
manufacturing establishments will trans
act their business on May End as though
establishments are, however, interested in
the result of the election and will make
special efforts to see that such of their
employees as care to vote shall be given
ample opportunity so to do. They will
be further urged to such course by the
leadersof both parties.
In 9eAking of the matter Monday,
Mr.. James P. Gorter, chairman of the
democratic campaign committee, said:
Every employer of men is directly
interested in the movement for good gov
eminent The commercial interests of
the city are to him matters of vital moment.
The election day is not holiday, but he
should see to it that every cmploye is
given an opportunity to vote. A little
managing can do this, and business will
not be interfered with. Employers should
consider this matter at once in order to
make arrangements for the day
Chairman A. J. Schulz, of the republi-
t'til 'ouiiiiittSN, thtt VA. Nh'iitS L.
Wilson, who are directing the campai gn
in the interest of Mayor Master. said: 1T
is the duty Of every citizen 10 vote at this
election, and employers Of mcn should
see that every facility is given their men
to vote. This is purely a local election,
and every man is interested in the result
if he has the interest Of his city at heart. -"
Gen. Lloyd L. Jackson, of Hurst, Pur-
nell & Co., said Every opportunity will
be given our employees to vote at the cleo
ton next Tuesday, as it has always been
given in former elections. We believe
that every employer will see to it that his
employees have ample time to vote if they
so desire.
F Col J. McKenny White, of Armstrong,
Gator & Co., said: "Our employees will
be given time to vote. We are very busy
now, but we have never failed to give our
men ample opportunity to exercise the
right of suffrage. Any man in our en-
ploy who wants to vote will have time to
vote on May 20

Philadelphia is fortunate in the posses

MIR EDIToR The suggestion of the
Grand Jury. just discharged, that Mr.
Samuel Beall, the keeper of the Aims
House, be discharged, is not onlya sur
prise to all who know the true state of
affairs, at the institution, but great in
Justice to an efficient officer Mr.. Beall
was appointed five years ago by the dem
ocrats who were in power. and so entirely
satisfactory was his management that he
was retained for four wears.
When the republicans came into power
they found after Il full and thorough in
vestigation that Mr.. Beall had in every
rcspectflled satisfactorily the position and
retained him. Then the trouble began
Il few republicans who wanted the place
and Il few ocalled democrats who failed
to get the crumbs and who had in pre-
vious years made good thing of it
combined to get rid of Mr.. Beall. The
Board of Trustees who had Thoroughly
looked in these complaints about the con
dilion of the Aims House found that Mr..
Beall was in no way responsible for them,
bat that there was at the place certain
parties whose presence caused all the
complaints. and steps were taken to re-
move them These parties through malice
and spite. backed up by Il few disarpolnt-
ed ones of both parties are endeavoring
to have Mr.. Beall removed. If the Grand
Jury desired to investigate these com
plants, why not summon the trustees, the
keeper and his wife, the matron, and get
evidence on both sides of the question.
There is positively no ground for re-
moval and the suggestion of the Grand
Jury is reflection upon the trustees as
we'll as upon Mr.. Beall. If the trustees
had allowed, and they meet each month,
these violations to go on by any one en-
ploycd by them, then the Grand Jury
should have suggested that the trustees
be removed. The trustees have gotten
rid of these Objectionable characters both
in and on the outside of the institution
and there will be no further trouble. To
remove Mr.. Beall would be to convict him
without 4 trial and to reflect upon thel
own management, we therefore believe
the trustees will see that all such charac-
tiers as have caused this trouble be kept
from the institution, and thereby avoid
further complaint.
