A general strike, it is said, among
the coal mines all along the Pacific
coast, is being talked of among the
union coal miners. At the wages
the miners are now getting for dig
ging coal, and the pressing demand
Tor coal, which means steady work
for all who will work for two years
or more, there can be no other con-
structlon put on the proposition
than a piece of most outrageous
idocy on the part Of the proposed
strikers. Men who work are entitled
to fair and liberal wages for their

that, as are the men who are digging
coal in the Northwest at present,
then they had better let well enough
alone. General strikes always mean
untold loss to the laboring men even
when they win their point of conten-
ton. There is always more or less
danger and often loss of life, and
generally months of idleEess, in
which time the striker loses more
thLn tic increase Of wages for which
ne is coEt"ndng ~ill amount to in
Ollie n ;wo years steady work There
is no denying the fact that the min

on their part to inaugurate a general
strike means financial suicide tc
themselves. Professional agitatcr:

the cOntented MINERS.

NUTS FOR BRYANITES.

Some historic facts, which will be
nuts for the Bryanites to crack, are
to be found in the following quota
tlOnS from men whose memory the
citizens of this republic always love
to honor and revere:
Hamilton said: eve ought to
look to the possession Of Florida and
Louisiann."
Jefferson said: FGive us extensive
empire and self-government and the
acquisition Of Cuba"
Jackson said: 'Never cede any
land or boundary of the republic,
but always add to it, thus extending
freedom"
Buchanan said: Expansion is
the future policy of our country, and
only towards fear and oppose it."
Douglas said: GAS fast as our in
terests and destiny require additional
territory, am for it."
Benjamin Franklin said: "The
United States should seize and hold
Canada at any cost" q.
William Mckinley said: ''Wher-
ever the stars and stripes have been
raised, there shall they remain, if it
takes every drop Of American blood
to do So"
William Jennings Bryan says:
Disgrace the nation; pull down the
flag over ceded territory and do any
other old thing, if you will only elect
NIB to the presidency Of this repub-
lic."
Now, as patriotic American citi-
zens, we ask of you, who are right in
the list. President Mckinley agrees
with all of the rest except Mr.. Bryan
Are all the others wrong and Bryan
right? Well, perhaps, but the
American people do not think so and
Will so express themselves at the poll
next November.

Annexation of Hawaii.

NEARLY thirty years passed before
the next instance of expansion oc-
cured, which was over in the island
Of Hawaii An effort was made, at
the end of President HarrisOn's ad-
ministration, to secure the annexa-
ton of Hawaii. The effort was un-
successful. In a debate in congress
on February 2, 1894, one of the lead
ers in opposing the annexation of
the islands, stated these islands are
more than 1900 miles distant from
our extreme western boundary. We
have a serious race problem now in
our own country, and I am not in
favor of adding to our domestic fab
ric a mongrel population of this
character). Our constitution makes
The Seattle Republican. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1???-1915, 1900-09-21

no provision for a colonial establish
ment. Any territorial government
we might establish would necessarily
because of the population, be an
Oligarchy, which would have to be
supported by armed soldiers
'Yet Hawaii has now been an
neXed and her delegates have sat in
the national conventions of the two
great parties. The fears then ex-
pressed in relation to an 'oligarchy'
and armed soldiers are not now Sc
riously entertained by any human
being; yet they are precisely the OBJ
jectiOns urged against the acquisi-
ton Of the Philippines at this very
moment. We are making no new de-
parture. We are not taking a single
step which in any way affects our
institutions or our traditional poll
cies. From the beginning we have
given widely varying degrees of self

Imperialism Not Involved.
''The simple truth is that there is
nothing even remotely resembling
imperialism or 'militarism' involved
IN the present development Of that
policy Of expansion which has been
part Of the history of America from
the day when she became a nation.
The words mean absolutely nothing,
as applied to our present policy in
the philippines; for the policy is
only imperialistic in the sense that
Jetferson's policy was imperiaHstic;
only military in the sense that Jack
sons policy toward the Seminoles, or
Clusters toward the Sioux, embodied
mllltarlsm; and there is no more
danger Of its producing evil results
at home now than there was of its
interfering with freedom under JEFF
ferson OF Jackson, or in the days Of
the Indian wars on the plains. Our
army is relatively not as large as it
was in the days of Wayne; we have
not one regular for every thousand
inhabitants. There is no more dan
ger of draft than there is of the
reintroduction of slavery"

A STATEMENT OF FACTS
Of the Issues of the Present National Cam
pAgn-lmperialiSm Snare
and DeluSion.

Irrespective of what one may
think Of Theodore Roosevelt, vice
presidential candidate Oh the Repub-
lican ticket, from a personal stand
point, the following extracts from
his letter of acceptance on the "ex-
pansion" situation, so far as the Uni
ted States is concerned, is a most
able and scholarly review of the his
toric acquisition Of territory on the
part Of the United States officials
from time to time since there has
been any United States. If imper-
ialism, as it is being interpreted in
the present campaign of education
IS dangerous proposition so far as
the citizens Of this country are con-
cerned, it is certainly proposition
that has been adhered to so closely
by all the leading statesmen Of this
country in the past that it has be
come one of the governments fund
amental principles. To expand over
the Philippine islands is no more
than expanding over much other val
uable territory, and that, too, in
many cases without the consent of
the governed. But hear Mr.. Roose-
welt:

The nomination Of c. E. Hoye for County Cor
oner was simple popular uprising of the Repub-
cans of King County. Fully ninety per cent of the
last County Convention wanted to soc DR.. Hove
nominated, even though many of them voted for
other candidates. 1t looks as if he would prac-
tcally speaking, not have any opposition at the
polls, SO weak is the opposing candidate for the same
office.

territories Of Ohio and Illinois had
already been governed under Wash
lngton and the elder Adams. The
theory known by this utterly false
and misleading phrase was only
struck out in political controversy
at a much later date, for the sole
purpose of justifying the extension
OF slavery into the territories.

Question of Expansion.

''While paying heed to the neces-
sity Of keeping our house in order
at home, the American people can
not, if they wish to retain their self
respect, refrain from doing their
duty as a great nation of the world.
The history Of the nation is, in large
part, the history of the nations ex-
pansion. When the first continental
congress met in Liberty hall and the
thirteen original states declared
themselves a nation, the westward
limit of the country was marked by
the Allegheny mountains. Even
during the Revolutionary war the
work of expansion went on.
''Kentucky, Tennessee and the
great Northwest, then known as the
Illinois country, were conquered
from our white and Indian foes dur
ing the Revolutionary struggle and
was confirmed by us by the treaty of
peace in 1888. The land thus con-
firmed was not then given to us. It
was held by an alien foe until the
army and Gen. Anthony Wayne
freed Ohio from the red man, while
the treaties Of Jay and Pinckney Sc
cured from the Spanish and British
Natchez and Detroit.
The LOufsiana Purcnase.
''In 1903, under President Jeffer-
son, the greatest single stride in ex-
pansion that we ever took was taken
by the purchase Of the Louisiana
territory. This so-called Louisiana,
which included what are now the
states of Arkansas, Missouri, Louisi-
ana, Iowa, Minnesota, Kansas, Ne
braska, North Dakota, South Dako-
ia, Idaho, Montana and a large part
of Colorado and Utah, was acquired
by treaty and purchase under Presi-
dent Jefferson, exactly and precisely
as the Philippines have been ac-
quired by treaty and purchase under
President Mckinley.
'"The doctrine Of the consent of
the governed the doctrine previous
ly enunciated by Jefferson in the
Declaration of Independence, was
not held by him or by any other sane
man to apply to the Indian tribes in
the Louisiana territory, which he
thus acquired, and there was no vote
taken even of the white inhabitants,
not to speak of the Negroes and In
dians, as to whether they were will
ing that their territory should be an
nexed.
Jefferson and Mckinley.
"The great majority of the inhab-
itants, white and colored alike, were
bitterly opposed to the transfer. An
armed force Of United States soldiers
had to be hastily sent into the terri
tory to prevent insurrection, Presi-
dent Jefferson sending these troops
to Louisiana for exactly the same
purpose that President Mckinley
has sent troops to the Philippines
Jefferson distinctly stated that the
Louisianas were mot fit or ready fol
self-government, and years elapsed
before they were given self-govern-
ment, Jefferson appointing the gov
ernor and other officials without any
consultation of the inhabitants Of
the newly acquired territory.
''The doctrine that the constitu
ton followed the flag was not ther
even considered, either by Jefferson
or by any one serious party leader
for it never entered their heads tina
a new territory should be governed
other than in the way in which tht
