Imperialism as Viewed at Yale.


A noteworthy editorial appears in the
Yale Review for August, which strongly
condemns our present policy of conquest
In the Philippines. Here is the gist of 1t
1t is becoming clearer day by day to
an increasing number of our people,
despite the mists of cant that have
been studiously thrown about our
position, that we have undertaken Just
what Spain had on her hands In Cuba
the reduction of an unwilling people to
subsection. The only way in which we
can get into a position consistent with
our ideals and with the purpose of our
altruistic imperialists Is to turn back on
conquest, come to terms with Aguinaldo
and the other native authorities of the
island, and offer them self government
and protection against foreign ag.

and treated them with something which
they considered akin to contempt. He
was brilliant scholar and an apt pupil,
yet his toplofty bearing evidently pre-
JUDGED his instructors as well, for when
he graduated he was placed ninth in
grade, whereas he should have been near
If not quite first. His position in the
class would have damaged his prospects
of preferment in the War Bureau to
which he aspired were it not for the
knowledge general had of the prejudice
which had placed him so low in the list.
On this generals recommendation he re-
ceived his appointment to the general
staff. Being possessed Of private for
tune he was independent of the favor of
those above him, and doubtless carried
into his new duties something of his
school-day superiority of bearing. He
held himself aloof from his fellow
workers and attended strictly to his own
duties. Thus he had few friends and
many ill-wishers. He was spoken of as
"the Jew, and everything that went
wrong in the offices was laid at his door
as matter of course.
When one day the secret service of the
War Office secured from one of its spies
a document containing list of import
ant information conveyed by Esterhazy
to the German ambassador, Esterhazy
went to work to have his reasonable
conduct hushed up. He found power
full friends who seconded him in these
efforts, and the eliminating document
was about to be pigeonholed and thus
suppressed when one of the chiefs of the
office returned from a vacation. He was
shown the paper and thoughtlessly re-
marked that it looked like ''the Jews
handwriting. The bare suggestion was
enough. All the pent-up envy, jealousy
and ill-wil of the staff was turned upon
Dreyfus. Making him scape-goat had
become second nature with them; here
was an opportunity to crush him. So
the whole internal machinery of decep-
ton, fraud and forgery was set in motion
and an innocent man made the victim.

BOSTON PRODUCE MARKET.
From Wednpadav,s Rnston Ionrnn

The butter market, which has been steadily
hardening Tor two weeks past, is still very
| firm at the most recent high prices. The adj
vices from primary markets have been en-.
couraging, with values firm at all points, and
foreign markets have also been strong and
tending upward. There are not many new
features in the situation. All the strong ones
noticed last week are retained. Receipts
have continued small, and the demand for
nome cousump tion sufficiently large to keep
them pretty well cleaned up. There has not
been much further advance in prices from
those those quoted week ago in this article. The
| 1alllng OH in demand has temporarily check
ed the upward movement, but should ex-
porters renew their active operations a fur

Northern creamery to he had at less than 81 4

at the inside quotation on such stock. For
western creamery the marl ct Is also firm,
with extra in assorted sizes generally quoted
at PA cents, and the best ash tubs held AT 2l

The market for cheese has continued firm
| High country markets and advices indicating
drought in the producing sections are the
principal causes OF the firm tone to all mar
kets. At under l0ls cents it is not possible to
buy the finest Northern twins, and the range
Is from that price down to 10 cents for some
thing not strictly choice. The demand con
tinues moderate and wholly for the immedl

TT WAS RECONSTRUCTED.
The Bill Allowing the Placing OF
Pound Nets in Neuse River.

Pound Nets in Neuse River.
Mr.. G.. L. Abernethy, of Carteret
county, was seen in the Marlborough
lobby last night and was in very hap.
ply strain over the reconsideration by
the House of the bill intended to place
dutch or pound nets in Neuse river.
Mr.. Abernethy said:
eve succeeded in getting the bill
reconsidered by the House and re-re-
ferred to the fish committee. This mat
ter is of the greatest Importance TO
the poor fishermen of Carteret county.
The passage of this bill means the de-
struction of the interests of the small
fishermen of our county. 1t has a far
reaching effect and win allow two or
three men to practically control the
fish markets in our section. 1t was a
campaign pledge in our county that
these nets should not be put back in
Neuse river and in my honest judg-
ment the passage of this bill will Sc.
riously affect the election two years
hence. BY defeating this measure the
General Assembly will be taking care
of the best interests OF the poor fish
ermen of our county, the backbone of
the Democratic party in that section"
