THIS IS PLAIN TALK.

"Wha ditferentiates the present from preceding says the London Daily Telegraph, comment ing on President Mckinley $ mes sage to the new Congress, "is it's all but formal admission that the United States have been drawn in- to the eddies of Eastern politics. It k the far East which is the real resaon for this partial abandonment of the Monroeism. 50 far as Great Britan is concerned there is no apprehension, but rather un- qualified satisfaction at the new departure. '
 There is very clear perception of the inevitable trend of the Pres ideat policy of imperialism mani fested in this English comment up on his message lis the admins tration yearning for colonial pos sessions in the Far East that is drawing this government into the eddies of Eastern politics. l. is the glamor of this same dream of Oriental conquest that creates the administration willingness to abandon the Monroe Doctrine. The conflicting interests of princi- pie and pelf are brought face to face, and a trast-riaden adminis- tration cannot uphold principle when there is more money in its abandonment.
 For is it strange that Great Britan should feel no apprehension, but rather unqualified satisfaction, at this new American departure. In the entrance of the United States Government upon the field of European politics is seen the sure strengtbenin. of England The two great Auglo-SaNon na- tions, mutually embarked upon q career of imperial land-grabbing. must of necessity stand together against the jealous hostility of oth- CT great Powers Their interests are more closely allied. their blood and tongue are one, neither can af- ford to see the power of the other weakened for the increased pres tige of European rival.
 t is well for Americans to note the significance of the British view of President Mekinley's im- pefialism That the President means to substitute this imperial ism for the true Republicanism taught by the founders ot the Unit ed States Government is now all too apparent. This determination on his part is hailed with delight by=EagIaad, profoundly solititous of securing partner 50 powerful in the great Anglo-Ameriean miss ion of conquest and colonial ae- quisition.
