Saskatchewan and Frazer, as we'll.
should lay wholly within our limits,
less for our own sake than for the sake
of the men who dwell along their
banks. Columbia, Saskatchewan and
Manitoba would, as States Of the
American Union, hold positions in
comparably more important, grander
and more dignified than they can ever
hope to reach either as independent
communities or as provincial depend
encies of a foreign power that regards
them with q kind of tolerance akin to
contemptuous Indifference. OF course,
no one would wish to see these or any
other settled communities now added
to our domain by force; we want no
| unwilling citizens to enter our Union.
The time to have taken the islands
was before settlers came into them.
European nations war for the posses
sion of thickly settled districts, which
if conquered, will for centuries remain
alien and hostile to the conquerors
We, wiser in our generation, have
seized the waste solitude that lay neal
us, the limitless forests and never
ending plains and valleys OF the great
lonely rivers, and have thrust our OWL
SONS into them to take possession, ant
a score of years after each conques
we see the conquered land teemins
with people that is one with our
selves"
We thus see Roosevelt the candidate
and Roosevelt the author in conflict
In other words, Roosevelt the candi
date condemns the view of Roosevelt
the author as a wicked absurdity.

ROOSEVELT US. ROOSEVELT

In a speech delivered at Minneapo
lis July II, Governor Roosevelt said
"a more wicked absurdity than the
Kansas City proposition for dealing
with the Philippines was never enun
ciated by the representatives of 6
political party"
Here is what the Kansas City plat
form says:
I'VE are not opposed to territorial
expansion when it takes in desirable
territory which can be erected into
States in the Union, and whose people
are willing and fit to become Ameri
can citizens.
I'VE favor expansion by every

governed outside the constitution, and

TEACHERS INSTITUTE.

The Hartford County Teachers In
stitute, which will be held in Bel Air
the first week in September, promises
to be one of more than usual interest,
and will be watched by educators
throughout the State. 1t is the first
one to be held under the supervision
OF the State Superintendent, Mr.. Nj.
b. Stephens, who was appointed to
this new office last winter by Governor
Smith. His reputation as one of the
foremost educators in the Maryland
has preceded him, and while it is not
our purpose to make comparisons, as
they are often odious, we wish to sim
ply state that we think the Legisla-
ture acted wisely in abolishing the Of
flee of Director of State Institutes and
creating the present one in its stead.
Prof. Galbresth, now that he he has
had a year to fully acquaint himself
with the schools of the county, and
does not carry the handicap which
thwarted many OF his movements at
the last institute, will, we feel sure, be
enabled to give programme more in
accordance with his own ideas as to
what model institute should be.
This event is always looked forward
| to with pleasure, not only to the teach
ers themselves, but the public at large
and much good can be derived from
such free exchange of ideas.
The programme is an interesting
one and seems replete with origina
ideas. The institute will be opened
by an address of welcome by Mr.
George L. VanBibber, Of the Bel All
Bar, which will be responded to on be
half of the teachers by Mr.. Oscar Gun
bingham. The State Superintendent
will then be introduced and make g
short address, followed by a few re
marks by Mr.. Galbreath. Miss Rich
mond will read an interesting paper
and the regular topic will then be dis
cussed.
The programme throughout the
| week includes many interesting sub
jects, and each teacher will be expect
ed to make a choice of one he wisheI
to discuss. In the afternoons thu
routine will be varied by praetica
work in the public school building
Regular classes will be formed, which
will be under the general direction o
Mr.. John D. Worthington, Presiden
of the School Board and former Ex
aminer.
Valuable assistance from other edu
Gators outside of the regular corps will
be given, and through these channel
much information will be disseminat
ed. The programme is arranged t.
only give general outline of the work
1t is primarily intended that the in
stitute shall shape its own course a
the week progresses. Each teache
is urged to come prepared to give a

GREAT HIPPODROME.

The late Phineas Taylor Barnum
displayed a profound knowledge of
character when he said that the Amer
lean people loved to be fooled. The
great showman's heart would have ex
banded with pride at the proof of his
professional sagacity afforded by the
ocean steamship race" from New
York to Europe, now in progress.
Probably this is the greatest fake in
history, and the American people pro-
badly know it, but they seem to en-
joy being humbugged.
Even bona fide ocean steampship
race would be matter for the inter
national police, because it is fraught
with infinite danger to thousands OF
lives. But this race is the merest hip
podrome. The contrasting ships are
from and they represent three of the
great powers-Germany, England and
the Standard Oil Trust. The trust
has entered its steamship New York,
one of the fleet which draws an in
come from the United States govern
ment in the form of a mail contract,
amounting to over 81 100000 a year,
for ten years. This subsidy, which
was rushed through Congress in 1892,
under pretext of promoting Ameri,
can shipping" and restoring Old
Glory to the SEAS" has proved about
the latest thing for the Standard Oil
crowd in the history of subsidies. 1t
has still five years to run, and the
trust people like it SO we'll that they
had their man Hanna introduce a
similar shipping subsidy measure in
the last Congress. 1t was withdrawn
on account of popular outcry until
after election, but if Mckinley were
elected it would be pushed to the
front again without fail.
The New York has no chance what
ever of winning this race" She is
an old ship and clearly outclassed by
the European flyers. But she carries
the United States mails and the Amer
lean people are bound by a contract,
not only to pay $13, 900. 900 for the SER
vice, but to forego the advantage Of
swifter modern ships, which would
carry the mails more quickly and for
less money.
But these new ships are not in the
Standard Oil-Hanna-M Mckinley trust.

HOW LONG {?

The war in the Philippines has
been going on now for just one year
and a half. For eighteen weary
months the best blood of the United
States has been drained into a repul-
sive and apparently bottomless swamp
of guerilla fighting that leads to moth
ing, aud we have spent on the wretch
ed job more money than the Demo-
cratic party under Jefferson and Mon
roe needed to triple the area of the
.,public.
When we began war with Spain, a
| nation of eighteen million people with
considerable navy, an army that
could call upon million trained men,
8. treasury and completely organized
government, we fought her to a stand
still in three months and a half, and
we never put more than 80, 900 men in
our fighting line. To suppress 2,OOO,-
900 unorganized Tagals, in what we
have never recognized as a war, we
are using $4,000 men, and after 10
mont his of fighting we do not seem
much nearer success than we were in
the beginning.
Does not this imply atrocious mis-
management somewhere And how
long is it to be kept up? Are the
American people prepared to resign
themselves to permanent state of
war in the Philippines, with a great
part of their resources in men and
money annually devoured to no pur-
pose?
Our army OF occupation in the is
lands is equal to the entire force that
State like New Jersey could be ex-
pected to raise to resist invasion.
Practically, therefore, we have sub
tracted State like New Jersey from
the defensive resources of the nation.
That is what has been accomplished
by imperialism, masquerading in the
robes of expansion.
If we had given the Filipinos a voice
in the management of their own coun-
try there would have been no war. If
we would condescend to negotiate
with them the war could be stopped
even now.
In dealing with the savage Moros Of
the Sulu Islands, with their poly
gamy, slavery and monarchy, we were
willing to recognize the local authori-
ties and customs, and by doing so we
obtained the allegiance of these fero-
cious bandits without blow. Why
should we refuse to do SO much for the
civilized and the Christian inhabi-
tants of Luzon

ANTI-IMPERIALIS FOR BRYAN

The national convention of anti-im-
perialists, held at indianapolis
August Is, was notable gath
ering. 1t will be the formal ex-
preston of the disgust and alarm in
spired by the Mckinley policy in many
thousands of Republicans, who until
next November will never have voted
any but the Republican ticket. Mr..
Bryan's ringing declaration on the
paramount issue" in his speech at
Indianapolis naturally crystallizes the
the greater part of this sentiment in
favor of the only candidate whom a
consistent anti-imperialist can sup
port.
Much OF this support will come from
the strongholds of Republication.
Senator Hoar and ex-senator Ed.
munds stand almost alone in Their
anomalous position of denouncing i'm.
perialism but supporting the arch i'm.
perialist. Mr.. Edmunds is honorary
president of the Anti-Imperialist
league, but as he has expressly de-
clared, his position is purely honorary
and his attitude toward the candi
dates is wholly personal. The most
active members are all for Bryan.
At Boston 400 anti-imperialists met
on Aug. in Faneuill Hall. Ex-Gov
George 8. Boutwell, presided and de
livered an address justifying the with
drawal from the Republican party oil
himself and his many colleagues. Mr.
Boutwell, advocated the overthrow OF
the Republican party, giving as the
main reason words attributed tc
United States Senator George F.
Hoar, that the administration is at
tempting to govern 100000 in the
east. and nearly another million in the
West Indies without any constitution
al restraint.
Ringing resolutions were adopted
the striking phrase Of which follows
I'VE believe that free silver is less
serious than free slaughter; we depre.
cate the appeal to the pocket at home
nd to the cannon abroad; the doc.
trine that Americans can be made
ri CHI by taxation and Filipinos right,
eous by force and the practice of as.
sanitation of lower races in Asia and
the malevolent dissipation of higher
ideas in America
The aegis & intelligencer. [volume] (Bel Air, Md.) 1864-1923, 1900-08-24

The doctrine of expansion, as set
forth by the Republican party, pre-
sents some interesting questions to be
settled by the people at the polls. By
the Treaty at Paris we have acquired
territory and peoples; and ''they must
be held and governed without the ex-
tension of the same Constitutional
government under which we live"
The people are therefore asked to ex-
ercise their right of suffrage derived
from the Constitution, and elect q
President, who could not be candi-
date for the office, save for its pro-
visions and who, if elected, will coop
crate with Congress in Withholding
from our new peoples in possession
the same Constitutional government
which Americans enjoy at home. We
must, therefore, discard the princi-
Piles which we have so long held sacred
and also deny them to subjects Of our
authority across the sea. Water then
proves an impossible barrier to Con-
stitutional expansion, while contig-
uous territory or adjacent land can
properly receive an extended Consti-
tuition, no matter by whom it is in
habited. 1t is doctrine which sets
up the theory that distance destroys
the blessings Of liberty and independ-
ence-unless they are held under the
control of, and dependent upon, arbi-
trary power in another, and exercised
at the point of the bayonet, which, of
course, is proposition too paradox
cal to be seriously entertained.
1t was the exercise of just such ar
bitrary power by James the Second
when he broke the original contract
between the King and the people,
which, in the language of Mr.. Black
stone, amounted to an abdication OF
the government" and caused him to
lose his throne. 1t was the same an
Inhalation of Fundamental laws'' by
George the Third, in refusing to ex-
tend the English Constitution to his
American subjects, that made us free
and independent people. Now while
no one asserts that President McKin-
ley has fully assumed the kingly pre-
rogative, nor has clothed himself in
the ready made garments of a Mon
arch, yet it would be an interest
ing question for the people to pom
der over, namely; if Monarch who
discards existing Constitutional au-
thority at home, thereby vacates his
throne; and one who refuses to ex-
tend it to subjects, who are entitled
to it, abroad, thereby, Gin the opinion
of learned Chief Justice of South
Carolina, delivered in April 1776,)
closes all authority over and is entitled
to no obedience from them, by what
kind of power can a President and
Congress of Republic govern, in an
unconstitutional manner, subjects &C.
quired under treaty with Spain?
The Supreme Court of the United
States have, in former case, said:
at cannot be admitted that the king
ofSpain could, by treaty or otherwise,
impart to the United States any of
his royal prerogative; and much less
can it be admitted that they have
capacity to receive, or power to exer-
else them"
The power Of the American people
is in the ballot; now is the time to
make it effectually felt.
