The Policy of Industrial Progress

The industrial elements in the Cnltea
States know perfectly we'll that they
have fully emerged from anything like
a policy of isolation, and that they are
struggling with a new energy for OPP
portunity to supply good share. OF
the worlds mechanical necessities. 1t
behooves the industrial elements. then,
to work toward a broad recognition OF
the value, the very necessity, of export
trade They should make themselves
felt, not in their demands for protec-
ton of the home market-a protection
which they no longer need-but for the
business-like regulation of foreign rela-
tions. Well studied, comprehensive
commercial treaties should be their
aim, guaranteeing a. certain term of
unalterable trade relations, free from
the caprice of domestic political parties
and protecting Americans and foreign
exporters alike from the anxiety, the
insecurity, that comes when great ma
lions want to trade with each other ard
still cannot quite decide to drop Chi
canery-Louis ]. Magee, in the Engi-
neering Magazine.

A QUESTION OF CIVILIZATION.

David j. Hill in the Forum re-
marks that the war with Spain was not
one of conquest but of civilization. A
correct statement of the matter. The
so-called non-expansionists persistently
avoid this view of the question. Some
Of them are even going so far as to
deny that the cause Of the war-the
rescue of Cuba and response to her
piteous appeal-was justifable. That
they are driven to this denial at this
late day proves the weakness they feel
in their present position.
Logically they realize that conceding
that humane interference was justi-
fable, the conclusion must be that all
that has followed is defensible. They
therefore are forced by the logic of
their argument to deny the premises.
As Mr.. Hill well puts it, to drop the
enterprise now is to confess that there
Equally with the so-called imperial
ists"-if any really exist-the anti
imperialists'' offend against the princi-
pie upon which the United States has
thus far acted. That principle has
been expressed as the right and duty
of our Government Sin the name OF
humanity, in the name of civilization
to enforce the end of strife and to Sc
cure a rule of justice. To abandon in
critical moment the populations
emancipate from the sovereignty of
Spain, may seem more respectable than
to exploit them; but neither the one nor
the other is in harmony with the con-
ception of national duty which inspired
the prosecution of the war. There are
only three possible positions to be
taken upon the question of our proper
relation to the late colonies
of Spain: ~ That Spain had
a right to exploit them, and, since we
have defeated her, that we have sue
ceeded to that right; % that Spain was
wrong in her treatment Of her colonies,
but that we had no right to interfere
and 81 that Spain was wrong to an
extent that justified our interference
and our substitution of a better order.
Those who accept the last position
must admit that our duty has not been
fully performed until We have sub
stituted a better order than we found
in truth, the best order we are able
to secure.
Having invoked humanity and
civilization" as the watchwords of the
war, they now clearly prescribe our
task IN imposing peace. The current
course of events has been described by
its enemies as imperialism" and by its
friends as expansion; but neither of
these terms quite accurately meets the
case. The purpose of our Government
has not been the subsection of foreign
peoples for the sake of empire nor
the enlargement of our territorial limits
for the sake of expansion. Both
Of these words imperfectly express the
situation, and, thus far at least, are
not true to history. A more fitting
phase to designate the aims and
achievements of the nation is, perhaps,
1.-The extension Of civilization" for it
expresses the motive and controlling
principle of the war and of the treaty
by which, when ratified, it is to be con-
chded

THE WEST POINT SCHOOL.

The late war, brief as was its dura-
tion, had the effect of proving to this
generation the value of West Point to
1he nation. 1t has been the custom in
certain quarters of late years to rail at
1.-THE national military school, to de-
mounce 1t as an aristocratic institution,
and in some quasi political organiza-
lions opposition to it's maintenance took
the form of declaration demanding its
abandonment. But it is clear now to
al the people that but for the trained
West Point men, we would not have
been able to officer our army in any
sort of decent shape.
1t turned out that, despite the cour-
age, devotion and patriotism of the en-.
listed men, their officers as a rule were
unequal to the task of commanding
however noble their efforts to do their
duty. There was lack of knowledge
what to do, how to do, and when to do
Regarding the Mexican war, General
Scott declared as late as 1860 that but
for the graduated cadets who filled
subaltern positions in that war, the
conflict would in all probability have
TASTED four or five years with more
defeats in it's first half than victories
But as it was, in less than two cam
paigns we conquered a great country
and won peace without the loss of q
single battle.

SHOULD BECOME A LAW.

Assembly bill 395, by Mr.. Richard,
has passed the Senate and now goes
ITO the Governor. 1t is sincerely hoped
that the Executive will approve it. 1t
lis brief and simple bill providing that
the election board at the close of the
count must seal up copy of the regis
LITER upon which the word voted was
marked, as the ballots were received,
and all certificates Of registration, a
list of the challenged votes. one OF the
tally lists, and one of the copies of the
list of voters, and address the same
Ito the County Clerk. That is the law
as it now stands.
: But there is added a five-line provi-
'sion Of first Importance. 1t directs the
election board to post a copy of the re-
suit Of the voting in the precinct upon
1.-THE outside of the polling place in a
conspicuous manner. and it is made a
misdemeanor to deface or remove the
posted sheet. This posting must be
done before the board adjourns.
The effect of this will be to give every
body the news of the outcome of the
election It will tend to prevent fraud
'ulent treatment Of the returns later.
and it will prevent stupid officials seal
'dng up a1lfthe papers without giving out
the news to anyone and to which all
the people are entitled. In this county
on mores than one occasion the people
have been compelled to wait ten days
after an election was held to ascertain
from the canvass of the returns what
the result was, because in some one. or
more precincts stupid election officers
chad ssealed up the papers. even includ-
singfthe duplicate sheets. which the law
: directs one Of the inspectors or judges
shall keep in his possession for six
months.
To news gatherers the new provision
: will be Of great assistance. They will
not be dependent, as heretofore, upon
the within of election clerks, or have to
dance attendance upon their pleasure or
submit to the insults and insufferable
assumption of authority by some Of
them. The people will not be driven
to seek the news from private notes
kept by onAlookers. nor be subjected
to doubts as to whether the true fig
lres have been gathered by those from
whom they seek information.
This new Act has been long desired.
IT was introduced in the last Legisla-
ture, but was lost in the debris Of an
overloaded calendar. Now that it has
passed both houses the belief is enter
tanned that it will receive Executive
approval, as surely it should.
The record-union., 1899-03-08

It Is extremely odd that before the
new, Primary Election Act gets into its
swaddling clothes it should be at
tackled by the so-called Non Partisans
of San francisco. That party has had
"a meeting and appointed a COMMITTEES
to examine into the Act, and if possible
contest its legality. The humor of the
thing resides in the fact that generally
the people have for years been clamor-
Ding for a. primary law that would de-
prive ward bosses and strikers of the
power to run things as it suits them
a law totascertain the real expression OF
party will within party lines. Now
when that object is supposed to have
been attained. the very men to jump
upon the law are those who have had
the most to say against the old method
of ascertaining the will Of party or
Ranization.
The record-union., 1899-03-08

If any faith is to be reposed in the
sworn testimony Of officers. enlisted
eral Miles has maintained his claim that
either through connivance of a fraudu-
lent nature, or incompetency in some
department., or the stupidity of those
to whom is entrusted the choosing Of
food for soldiers. our troops in Santi-
ago and Porto Rico were supplied dur
ing the war with meat unfit for human
consumption. All the explanation"
combined of contractors and army Off
Gals distant from the scene will not
suffice to wipe out the damning fact.
