AFR NIX coNFEssIoN.

At last the Intellgencer has broken
the ice and come out in plain language
for the imperial policy of the admin
istration.
Our neighbor has all along protested
that Mr.. McKinley's policy did NOT
mean Imperialism; that it did NOT
contemplate the branching out of the
United States on new-or. rather,
the old monarchial-poliey of brute
conquest
Now the organ has had a sudden
change of ideas-a complete reversal
of its former attitude and with unac
customed frankness and boldness de-
clares for imperialism and conquest
pure and simple
How are we to account for the
change? Not being in the confidence
of the Republican bosses it is a bit
difficult to say. There are several rea-
sons that might be mentioned. And
not the least among them might be the
sudden arrival in New York from Eu-
rope Of the boss of the Mckinley adj
ministratiOn-the Hon. Marcus Aurif-
erous Hanna But possibly our neigh
Dor will enlighten us on this matter
later. At present we have only to do
with his sudden change Of front and
frank acknowledgment that IMPERI-
ALISM and CONQUEST constitute the
policy of the Republican leaders in
Washington.
Our neighbor copies after the New
York Independent, which is so rankly
imperial as to charge the Democracy
of the United States with TREASON"
And in support of the Mckinley policy
of imperialism our neghbor pleads that
the administration is doing no more
than the Democracy did when it PUR-
CHASED LOUISIANA from France,
and ANNEXED IT FORCIBLY."
The emphasis in capitalized letters
Ia our neighbors.
1t further argues in favor of the i'm
perial policy of Mr. Mckinley by plead
Ing lndL the DemOCFdllc party an
nexed forcibly and extended the power
of the American government over ter
ritory now constituting fourteen of our
most prosperous States, without the
consent of the governed.
In addition to these our neighbOr
quotes the fact that Texas and Cali
fornia were annexed to the United
States by the Democratic party and
adds in its effort to bolster up the Nc
Kinley policy:
Was not the admission of Texas as a
State the result of WAR OF CONQUEST
with Mexico? And were not California
Nevada. Utah, Arizona and parts of Colo
RADIO, Wyoming and New Mexico FORCE
BLY, ANNEXED as a result of this self
same war, and the government of the
United States estab ished without the con-
sent of the governed?"
These accomplishments were made under
the administration of the Democratic
party. the President being James X Polk,
OF Tennessee.

has quit lodging and come out in a
bold and manly acknowledgement of

The famous Ohio wool king" Gen
eral Isaac Davis. who has stood for
Mir. Mckinley through thick and thin
until the imperial issue was sprung, has
cruelty stuck pin into the second term
boom. He has created quite furry
among Ohio Republican leaders by de-
nouncing the Philippines war as an
outrage and denouncing the Mckinley
imperial policy in this blunt language:
Il am opposed to one farmer grabbing
his neighbours farm, and that's all there
is in this Philippine business. Every
rich fellow wants the Philippine farm.
Of course, we paid Spain S20000,0 900
for the Pacific farm, but where did
Spain get that farm? Did she buy it?
No; she grabbed it; she stole it, This
expansion business will drive our col
ored people out of the land, for the
coolie labor of the Philippines is
| cheaper, and the cotton growers will be
after it as Soon as possible. 1t is a
strange thing, this proposed imperial
ism. Who can go to the Philippine ISL
ands to speculate? l can't, because I
haven't money enough; l can't get any
benefit out of these islands. but the
rich man can; he's got the money, and
he'll make fortunes out of them.
you can't Christianize and civilize
man by shooting his soul into hi
and dumping his carcass into hole
This is talk that has the original
bark on. And what is worrying the
g. o. p. leaders most is that Gen. Davis's
word has very great weight with the
farmers.

TIE TRANSvAAI' 3 REPLY.
Continued from First Page.

"The Transvaal note is unsatisfac-
tory, and, indeed, a dangerous compo-
sition. 1t is idle to deny that the rulers
of the Transvaal have brought their
country very close to the brink of a
disaster which the British government
has done its best to avert.
The Daily Mail says:
President Kruger's defiance has ter
minated long period of unrest and
uncertainty in South Africa, for what
ever may be the issue of the present
situation, one thing is certain, that du-
alism in South Africa will end for
ever"
The Daily Chronicle says:
eve regret that the Beers, by rejecting
fair offer made in fair language have
taken a line giving fresh point to the argu-
ment to their enemies, that President Kru-
ger is a shifty and impracticable politician
fit only to be spoken to across line OF
bayonets."
These extracts fairly represent press
opinion in London. All the papers charac-
terize the attempt to represent Conyngham
Greene as suggesting the Transvaal's for
mer proposals as mere shifty prevarica-
tons.
The Cape Town correspondent Of the
Daily Mail says:
"Afrikander bund circles profess to have
information that President Mckinley has
interviewed between Great Britain and the
Transvaal.'
LONDON, September 1S.-All the dis
patches from South Africa this morning
talk of the imminence of hostilities and the
preparations for them. In Johannesburg
it seems 10 be taken for granted that the
Orange Free State has approved President
Kruger's note and promised active assist
ance in the event of war.
An official telegram posted at Volksrust
says that Transvaal, with the assent OF
the Orange Free State, repudiates British
suzerainty and adheres to the seven years
franchise.
AT Cape Town it is reported that Mr.
Hofmeyer. the Afrikander leader. sent q
communication to President Steyn. of the
Orange Free State, entreating him to dc
his utmost to preserve peace, but that he
received in answer the words: TOO late.
All military men agree that it is out Of
the question to begin hostile operations

THE TARiEF QUESTION: In A NUT
SHELL.

Secretary of State John Hay contrib
utes the following letter to the Republi-
can campaign in Ohio, which Is
mighty interestin readin':"
"Our exports of domestic manufactures
reached in this fiscal year the unexamp.ed
total of 1856, eco, COO We pay the highest
wages which are paid in the world; we sell
our goods TO such advantage that we are
beginning to furnish them te every quarter
of the globe. We are building locomotives
for railways in Europe. Asia and Africa !;
our bridges can be built in America, fer
ried across the Atlantic, transported up
the Nile and flung across a river in the
Soudan in less time than any European
nation, with a start of 4.099 miles can do
the work. We sell ironware III Birming-
ham, car 5ets in kidderminster; We pipe
the sewers of Scotch cities: our bicycles
distance all competitors on the Continent;
Ohio sends watch-cases TO Geneva All
this is to the advantage of all parties:
there is no sentiment in it; THEY BUY
OUR WARES BECAUSE WE MAKE
THEM BETTER AND AT LOWER COST
THAN OTHER PEOPLE"
Here we have it right from the foun-
tain headlight from the trenchant
pen of Mr. McKinley's Secretary OF
State
There is no question about the facts,
but will Mr.. Hay or some other high
tariff authority kindly tell us, in view Of
these facts, why we need a 50 per cent
tariff for protection" against foreign
competition in our own home market?
If Mr.. Hay can't answer maybe we
can get an explanation from Mr.. Me-
der protection of this tariff, sell their
wares cheaper in European, Asiatic
and African markets than they do at
home.

the administration policy in the Phil
ippines. 1t Is refreshing change.
The Hon. Marcus Auriferous Hanna
evidently has been imbued with a few
ideas that are 9rawther English" dur
ing his perigrinations in dear ole
Lunnon.''
But in carrying out Mr.. Hanna's
orders the Fourteenth street organ has
been little rash.
1t has done the unwise thing of
twisting American history by charg-
ing that the Democratic party under
whose wise auspices this greaSest
country on earth has gained most of
its territory, has furnished precedents
for the administration policy of inn
perialism, or ''forcible annexation"
The clean American record of the
Democracy cannot thus be falsified.
There is no possible parallel or an
alogy between the time-honored and
t-uly American policy of the Democ-
racy and the British policy Of the adj
ministration in its effort to forcibly an
mex the Philippines on the other side
of the world. There is no precedent
in American history for the policy
which Mr.. Mckinley himself has call
ed CRIMINAL AGGRESSION"
The Register has not space here to
quote the Constitution and the Su-
preme Court ON this point, nor is it
necessary. President Jefferson in the
case of Louisiana expressed the opin-
ion that the annexation was UNCON-
STITUTIONAL and needed the author
ity of constitutional amendment.
The resolution annexing Texas did
not pass without the we'll known pro-
test made in the Senate against its
constitutionality by Daniel Webster.
All of this territory was annexed
finally and despite the Constitution on
ly because it was contiguous to the
United States, in the same latitude,
practically uninhabited and contained
a vast area of virgin territory which
inevitably had to be settled by Ameri-
cans who had already explored it and
had already begun to overflow its
boundaries.
I With neither Louisiana, Florida nor
California was it ever thought possible
under our form of government to es-
tablish a permanent extra-territorial
and extra unconstitutional sovereignty
such as the administration now pro-
poses to establish over the Philippines.
Our neighbor is fond of calling those
who do not agree with the imperial
policy traitors" But in its advocacy
of that policy our contemporary itself
is a dangerous traitor to American
principles, the fundamental American
law and the basis of our government
by the people-the Declaration of In
dependence In its advocacy of the
IOIClDl6 duHeAdliUu Ol
the Intelligencer flies in the face Of its
own Weakened patron saint McKin-
ley, who has not the backbone to stand
by his own utterance to Congress that
"FORCIBLE ANNEXATION CAN
NOT BE THOUGHT Of in the case
of Cuba, because THAT BY OUR
CODE OF MORALS WOULD BE
CRIMINAL AGGRESSION" Or-to
again quote President Mckinley before
the Wall street imperialists got his
ear-if Cuba is and of right ought to
be FREE AND INDEPENDENT, why
not the Philippines, whose inhabitants
Admiral Dewey says are better fitted
for self government than the Cubans. !"
Has the administration one CODE
OF MORALS for the Cubans and an
other for the Filipinos?
