II VIC are to have a comprehensive foreign
policy, dictated both by the generous instincts
OF the American people and their perfectly legti-
mate desire for extension of trade; if are
to constitute a world power in actual fact, and
not in shadowy pretence, the time has come Tor
us to take and define our position. II the par
tition of China takes place, we shall he shut
out from those markets in that empire which
we now gossess. except SO far as these come
within the range OF the territory which England
may claim under the general division, and with
this loss OF what now have will go the far
greater loss of the markets which we might have
obtained if had acted with boldness and de-
csion
The Administration either has no policy that
it has the strength of purpose TO announce-for
the recent official statements of Secretary Hay
were weak and ineffective in the last degree-or
ii it has policy, it is unwilling to take
the American people into its confidence In
deed, one may so further than this. and
affirm that it is not willing even to ex-
tend this confidence to those who are members OF
the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations The
probability is that, on this subject, the Admins
tration is altogether at sea, and knows neither
what to say what TO do.

greatest of the three Christian virtues she went
TO the larder and then returned to the door
with haf-loaf of bread
Here" she said to the tramp ''take this,
but she added, '.you should not forget l give
it to you, not only for your own sake but for
Christ's for this is his day
Thank you, ma am" replied the tramp, as
he extended his hand and looked his good Sa-
maritan in the eye. but don't you think that
for his sake you might put some butter on it?''

makes 1t particularly dangerous to hamper
military department with sbookmen and
political appointees. p Nc man can sit IN
an Office at Washington and direct the
details of fight in the Philippines, or even
in this country. The men on the ground
must be made responsible for success and
allowed to go at the task in their own
way, so long as they obey certain general
directions. American officers understand
that no Weyler methods will be tolerated
and that it is their business to take care
Of the honor of the flag with as little cost
and bloodshed as possible, and beyond
this, IL they are competent men, they need
/ very few orders. The time has gone by
when government need hamper its more
powerful officials lest they overthrow the
ruling power The successful ruler OF the
present is the man who knows how to gov
ern by proxy, and for this he needs men OF
strong individuality.
