THE SOUTH AND EXPANSION.

The latest effort of the imperialistic
organs 20 secure southern support Of eX-
pansion takes the form Of an appeal 70
the sordid. 1t carries with il an assuInp-
ton for which there is no warrant In The
history of the South, and which is not at
all complimentary 20 this section.
We are urged 20 consider that the
South would be the greatest gamers
hy expansion. The development That
would take place from the Potomac to
the Rio Grande as the result Of "beneVo-
lent assimilation" IS pictured in dazzling
hues. We are told that with the Philip
pines under American control our com
merce would increase tremendously, see
ing that we could furnish all the cotton
goods the FilipnOs might need cheaper
than any other section of the country
and that We could do likewise in respect
of structural iron and steel rails. We are
assured that our hope OF Industrial and
commercial regeneration lies in eNpan-
sion. In short, systematic attempt Is
being made 20 induce the South TO join
the fmperialists in selling the country
birthright for a mess OF pottage.
However. that has not been the South
way in the past and she holds out little
announcement 10 the Imperialists that
1t will be her way I'm the present in
stanoe
One expanslonist contemporary eX-
presses itself as thoroughly satisfied that
IL the question OF expansion were really
understood I'm the South. there would not
be voice raised against IT. But, as a
matter of fact, the better the question Is
understood down here the stronger be-
comes the protest against expansion AnC
for the reason that the better the under
standing The clearer the appreciation
that xpansion-imperialsm obnoXiou:

conservatism has always been tne Dul
walk.

THE FOLDING BED.

A Newark IN. J) man has recently in
stituted suit for $1,000 against a hotel
proprietor who Quartered him in room
where there was a treacherous folding
bed, which shut up on him while he was
asleep. Immediately after the occurrence
OF this unlocked for incident TO wit, the
incarceration of the guest. the Newark
man found things decidedly uncomfortable
for awhile, and screamed as loud as cir
cumstances and bed-cothing would per-
init. Strange TO say, his smothered pro-
tests against being deprived of his consti-
tutional rights of life. liberty. and the
pursuit of happiness were finally heard,
and he was rescued. His declaration
with the help of many "whercases,"
"aforesaids," and other sinuous legal
yerbosities, describes the accident I'm de-
tall ana gives the public an idea of his
bodily and mental sufferiugs by asking
$500 damages.
This litigation, which emanates from
a chain OF circumstances as weirdly in
teresting as the most morbid could de-
sire, affords the New York Mail and EX-
press a pretext for vigorously assaihng
folding beds and their lack of apprecia-
ton OF the confidence reposed in them.
Our Contemporary first speculates on the
merits OF the lawsuit, and asks who is
properly answerable for damages-the
hotel-keeper who bought the bed; the
dealer who sold IL; the manufacturer who
made IL. or the man who invented it.
TO these queries we add another: Was
the guest guilty OF coniributory negli-
gence In trusting himself in a death trap
whose notoriety for treachery and cum
ming has made It an object of suspicion
the world over?
But these, forOoth. are legal nuts for
the lawyers and the jury TO crack. We
shall discuss them only by quoting the
language Of the Mail and Express which

Terrible Velocity of the Wind nj

WASHINGTON. August 29.-The Wea-
ther Bureau has issued a special report
on the gale of August 10th, 17th' and lSth'
which was so disastrous TO shipping III
the vicinity of Cape Hatteras.
Observations at the Weather Bureau
stations show that at A. NJ. of the l'th
there was a wind velocity Of seventy
miles an hour. II increased in intensity
until +. NJ, when 1t was ninety-three
miles an hour. with extreme Velociues Oh
from 12O to 1870 miles an hour The "lnu-
cups were blown away. and it is possible
that the wind reached an even greater
velocity In the evening.
The hurricane was the most severe. IN
the past five years. The total loss at
Hatteras alone will amount to from 3D.
600 10 $4,000.
The fishing business, which is the prin-
cipal industry there. has been for the
present entirely swept away. 1t Is an IN
terestlng fact that the highest wind We
locity previously reported at Hatteras
was eighty miles an hour
