ual leader of the colony, but is their
 historian as we'll He was a man in
 the prime of life when he came to Mex
 ico with his people, and his memory shows no sign of failing with advan-
 cing years He tells an interesting
 story of the long march from Georgia,
 the battles with hostile Indians and | the skirmshes with government troops. He says that at first some of
 the negroes were held in mild form
 of slavery by the Seminole Indians,
 but that most of them lived on equal
 terms, and that the slavery idea died
 out of its own accord. When they
 reached Arkansas they decided to re-
 main, but were forced to ally them selves with the Kickapoos, Comanches
 and Lipans in war against some un- friendly tribes, and were forced to | leave the state, and to escape further | trouble travelled to where they found q peaceful resting place. He says that in the spring of 1S42 Chough he proba- | ply means 1S44) the great train of emi-
 grants started. The caravan consisted of two thousand men, women and chill dren, afoot and horseback, accompas nied by hundreds of pack mules and horses, the cavalcade stretching out for miles on the prairie. After weeks of hardship that resulted in many
 deaths and injuries to men and ami mals the emigrants reached the Rio Grande. A short halt was made here
 and then the river was forded about
 July 1.
 Chief Wild Cat of the seminoles, and Chief John Horse, of the negroes, had pushed on ahead into Mexico and had obtained from the government the large and picturesque reservation they now occupy. The Lipans, CQmanches and Kickapoos getting restless after a short time, broke away and raided the country for miles around. The ne groes and Seminoles assisted the Mex ican troops in driving the marauders into Texas in the war that ensued. The insurgents were defeated in an engagement on the Chihuahua desert and the Kickapoos returned to the res ervation. The Seminoles grew home+ sick for the states, and a son of Chief Wild Cat led them back. There are now about two hundred and fifty of these Indians, living in eighty tepees They spend their time in the hunting field, re lying upon this source for sub sistence. Their chief is Nickanito. He is their ostensible ruler. but the real power of the camp is vested in the hands of an ugly little, pock-marked specimen of humanity by the name of Masse Pasito. In his cunning brain is the learning, wisdom and ancient lore of the tribe and it is due to him to say that he has directed them with such good judgment that they are on the most friendly terms with the Mexican government and the people of the surrounding country

 to Him.
 In three interviews recently MT. Bry- an has declared himself to be in favor of expansion, whether the territory is | contiguous, or non contiguous; but he claims that leach proposed annexation must be settled upon its own merits, and he is not in favor of retaining -ha Philippines because he distinguishes | between the peaceful extension of the limits of republic, and the change of l a republic into an empire"
 | Now in our judgment Imperialism" is coinage of the fancy An empire is an aggregation of states governed by an emperor. No one can say that the President of the United States is an emperor because our power in the Philippines has not been peacefully extended. The mere fact that after we had purchased the Philippines, an r- surrection against our authority broke out there, does not constitute the Uni- ted States an empire. If it did then we have been an empire for more than half a century. Did we extend our limits peacefully when we bought Louisiana from MT. Bonaparte of Corsica? Did we extend our limits peacefully when We acquired Texas? Did we in fact ay- CT extend our limits without a fight of some kind, except in the case of Alas ka? As every one knows there were numerous tribes of Indians, Spanish, French, and Mexicans in Texas and the Louisiana territory who objected to be- ing transferred to the government uf the United States. We have been fight ing the Indians whom we acquired hy the Louisiana purchase almost to this day. There has been nothing peaceful about our extension of territory any more than there has been about any other nations extension of territory. When the Indians out West killed Gen-t eral Custer did any one purpose the re- linquishment of the Louisiana pur- chase on the ground that to keep up the fight would be to convert a republic into an empire? Did any one propose af- ter that tragic event, that we should surrender the land we had bought to the slayers of Custer, guarantee them their independence, and because they had massacred some of our bravest and best men guarantee them also protec they worked out their destiny and pur- ton from outside inter ference while pursued the even tenor of their way scalping all the white settlers in sight?
 We had to conquer the Western 1n- dians They were in a state of constant warfare against the United States. To have met their rifles with words of peace would have been folly. To have

yielded to them would have been su- preme coWardice. It cannot be said and we doubt if it has ever been said that while we were hammering the Redskins into shape we were building an empire. Nor is the reproach any more deserved now while we are pun ishing the assassins in the Philippines who began war upon our troops without any announcement whatever of their l purpose to take up arms. If there had been no resistance in the Philippines to our establishing a government, then there would have been no imperialism. Is the cry of imperialism ever raised re- garding Puerto Rico, which were ac- quired by conquest and paid nothing for? No. And the reason is because the Puerot Ricans have not risen against authority. In 1861 the Southern States concluded to secede from the Union and establish their independence. How much consideration was shown them? l How much talk was there in the North and West about the principle of govern rnent with the consent of the governed? As matter of fact the North and the ! West raised 2,S00,000 soldiers to suppress with struggle for independence, and succeeding in doing so. And some of the very men in the North who could not be too bitter against their white brethren in the South are now talking about the, sacred cause of liberty in the Philippines, and putting the coWardly assassin Aguinadlo on the back, ,nd comparing him with George Washing ton.
 If an insurrection should break out in Alaska, what position should the United States government take toward it? Would anybody seriously advise that we should lay down our arms. pocket our losses in battle swallow our corr- age, and tell the Alaskans to take thelr country; that we only bought it for them to have fun with anyway? We purchased Alaska and its inhabitants from an absolute despot, and we can certainly repel an insurroction there without being open to the charge of imperialism. We bought the Louisiana territory from Napoleon, who had about as much moral right to 1t as the king of the Cannibal Islands, and we have been quelling insurrections there for half century without being charged with converting the republic into an empire. We bought the Philippines from Spain, whose title to them was usaseailable, and an instruction breaks cut against our authority. Does the imperialism" consist in our purchase of the Philippines or in our suppress sion of the insurrection? Of course neither of these acts can be construed as imperialistic
 It ie evident from this that 'imper- ialism'' is bit of sound and fury, signifying nothing" This country al- ready has colonial possessions, and ter ritories which have not been accorded statehood.

leader in the South who is opposed to that enterprise. We are all in favor of 1t because 1t will give us a short water route to the Orient and to the west coast of South America. What folly then would it be, after we had deter mined to undertake the building of the canal to surrender the Philippines which are the key to the door of trade
 in the Orient. Hitting at imperialism is like sending out an army aus did Ia valiant ruler of antiquity, to whip the south wind.

OBITUARY..
cYRENIus d. LORD.


Cyrenius b. Lord died at his home at
Ellsworth Falls Saturday, aged seventy
four years and six months. lie was the
son OF Ivory and Elmirs Lord. and was
born in the same room In which he died.
He leaves q wife and three children
Mrs. Charles T.. Lynch, OF Somerviile,
Mass, Mrs. II. W. Smith, of Pepperell,
Vermont, all OF whom were with him In
his last hours. One sister survives, Mrs.
James +. Davis, OF Chicopee Falls, Mass.
Apart from serving the city as road
surveyor for dozen years, MIR. Lords
whole life has been given to farming, In
which he was successful. lie was n man
OF boundless energy and endurance, and
his neoral habits were fsultless. He was
frugal, but equally generous, always
lending and giving, and finding thus his
joy. "To give my children the best edu-
cation possible has been my aim," he said,
but 1t never limited his charitable habits.
He read largely OF current literature
with which he kept himself supplied and
even in the busiest season, read daily.
He thus attained liberal ideas OF the
world, OF government, OF education, and
of human destiny. Affection was the
ground OF all his thinking. He was al
ways a gentleman, and was as young
when he died as he was at maturity. No
ore at the Fails will he missed more than
Mr.. Lord. His death means not only the
loss Of a good citizen, but the breaking
up OF a home which for generations has
been widely known for its generosity and
cordiality.
The grief of his beloved wife and chill
dren springs as a sense OF great bereave-
ment, but it is a great satisfaction to
them to know that it finds a response In
the hearts Of the entire community.
