strong feeling now that this country
ought TO lend the struggling Beers a
helping hand. Efforts have been made
during the last few weeks to get res
buttons of sympathy adopted by Con-
gress, but, owing to Republican oppo-
sition, without success. This opposition
may not be due to friendship for Eng

At the recent Cotton Spinncrs' AS
soc!ation in Charlotte the president of
that organization declared:
I'VE should favor and urge n perma :
nent and vigorous policy on the part of
our general government in favor of the
opcn-door policy in China. and we
should hold and govern the Philippine
Islands, which are destined to become
the distributing centre OF the Eastern
world. and make our country the centre
OF Eastern civiliation."
Commenting on this. the Baltimore
American says:
More markets must he had. and the
cotton growers of the South see in the
East light breaking that will mean 10
them a greater prosperity than they
have ever before enjoyed. In view OF
this it is passing strange that the
South does not put its politics in har-
mony with its best business interests
There is nothing strange about the
Souths attitude toward Imperialism.
nor is there any conflict between its
business and its politics in that respect.
The South has not been blinded by the
sorhistry that trade follows the flag
to such an extent as some commune
ties. 1t has observed that there is no
better foundation for that hackneyed
formula than the mere dictum of the
man who invented 1t. unless II be the
policy Of this government to build n
double tariff wall around these new
possessions that they may become the
viotims Of American eXtortion:the South
has suffered from that sort of thing
too long To care to be party to its
inniction on others.
There Is another view that detracts
much from the strangencss the Ameri-
can effects to find in the South's atti-
tude. The South still holds by the old
fashioned principles OF Thomas Jeffer-
son. and, therefore. believes that it Is
possible to pay too dearly for a breech

IL pays Its share Of the expenses of

times larger than the profits on the

cupation OF the Philippines.

DO not see why they should be taxed
also to support a bloody attempt to
ouild up new markets for the one per
cent. particularly when there is no
prospect that the attempt will ever re-
alize anything substantial In that direc-
ton.
Very touching is this solicitude of Re-
ests of the South. 1t would. however
find a somewhat more cordial response
in Southern bosoms If these same or
Gans had not been for years the cham
pions of each and every scheme that
had for it's object the spoliation Of the

BELATED RIGoR.

Whatever course may be followed
now as to the peculators Of Cuban
postal frauds. Mr.. McISinley's admin
istration can not be acquitted before
the'publlc Of having countenanced what
comes to n stain upon the honor and
good faith of the nation. The scandal
may be probcd to the bottom and
Neelys accomplices. of high and low
degree.may be brought to book for this
particularly infamous crime. but no ac-
ton, however rigorous. can atone for
the plain reluctance shown at Wash
ington 10 hold to stern accounting
them that have. not only soiled their
own fingers with the plumber OF help
less people, but who have. in some
sense. besmirched the name of their
country and have added a faint of
treachery to wholesale theft.
When the irregularities were first
discovered there was great show of
n purpose to vigorously prosecute c. +.
w. Nicely, who seemed then to be the
chief culprit. But as the defalcation
grew in amount and as 1t became more
and more apparent that the frauds
were the result of a deliberate system
involving many others. and ending
nobody knew where. there was a sud
den and complete change of policy. The
authorities at Washington refused to
longer make public the facts brought
to light and attempted to slur over and
minimize this outrageous conspiracy
against q people to whom the United
States was pledged to give sound and
stable and clean government. pending
the establishment OF Cuban indepen-
dence.
This astounding attempt to de1iber-
atcly and publicly hush up this inter
national scandal has. however, pro-
volled a storm of protests from the
press of the country, hardly second in
volume and insistence to that which
followed the famous population of
"plain duty" There are signs that Mr..
Mckinley and the department officials
will not be willing to stand Tor this;
that they are beginning to think better
of the embarrassing program. But the
hour has now utterly gone by when
singleness of purpose. might even have
given to the country the assurance that
whatever the imperialistic program in
cluded, 1t was to be kept free from loot
ing and peculaton.
What, it may be asked. shall be ex-
pected OF colonial administration that
has already developed so much rotten
ness? What Is to be expected OF an adj
mnistration that would wink ut such
rottenness and that would punish those
who are responsible for it only when
spurred to action by the indignant pro-
tests of the public? If n scandal already
made public, in broad outline. Is to be
hushcd up, how many scandals will
there be of which the public will never
hear; ray, how many are there al
ready? If Cuba under Wood has
been v!ctimized by gang of swind-
lers. commissioned as officials by
Washington, what has been the condi-
ton of the Philippines under Otis?
This Republican administration has
shown itself vacilatinG and vicious in
its direct treatment OF the Spanish is
lands;it has cast their government OH
un- American and dangerous lines; and
finally its policy has developed crimes
Of magnitude that it dare not punish
for fear of them that have pronted
thereby.

NOTES AND OPINIONS.

Senator Teller's resolution of sympa-
thy for the Beers, which was introduced
in the Senate last week. is skillfully
drawn, and it's adoption by Congress
ought in no wise to be considered an
embarrassment by the Administration.
1t expresses the sympathy of Congress
for the Beers in their struggle for lib
erty. while at the same time giving full
recognition to our National obligation
of neutrality. The secret understand
ing between the American Government
and that Of Great Britain would. how
ever, be slightly disfigured by the pas
sage of the Teller resolution.
