The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1900-06-08

The Democratic platform should re-
affirm the Chicago platform Of 1896, and
then meet all new issues courageously
Imperialism, now fully launched by the
administration, should have paramount
place, because 1t makes the issue direct
between a republic or an empire.
1t is not necessary to have king or
an emepror to have an empire.
Whenever we legislate Gas we have al
ready done in the Porto Rican law) to
tax and govern any people without their
consent, or deprive any people Of any
share in government by denying their
representation, as we have done with
Porto Rico, we are clearly imperialis-
tic and in no wholesome way demo-
cratic. Imperialism Is not only men
ace to free government but 1t is the alb
solute destruction of free government.
We dare not read the Declaration of In
dependence to the Porto Ricans on
Independence day, and the advocates of
imperialism as seen in active life in
Porto Rico, and as boldly proclaimed
by the nine millions Of subject Orien-
tails in the Philippines, are barred by
their conduct from celebrating the 4th
Of July at home, because they have
violated every cardinal idea elucidated
in the immortal Declaration. Hence I
hold that the issue of Imperialism Is the
one vital question of the hour.
Next in importance is the violation
by this administration of the Monroe
doctrine, which has stood unchallenged
by all parties for 75 years-or down to
Mckinley. And this is a question Of
vast import, and even now, or In the
immediate future, may involve the
country in foreign war
The Monroe doctrine grew out of the
struggles of the Spanish colonies OF
Central and South America for inde-
pendence. Spain being unable to sup
press the revolutionists, called upon the
allied powers of Europe for succor. In
response to an almost universal public
sentiment in the United States, Presi-
dent Monroe sent a message to congress
in December, 1923, which contained in
tercOntinental ideas ever since recog-
nized as the Monroe doctrine. That
message was debated at that time by
the ablest lawyers in the senate, among
them Daniel Webster, and 1t was almost
unanimously declared to be the Amer
lean doctrine, and has continued to be
so considered by all parties for three
quarters of a century-or up to Presi-
dent Mckinley. President Monroe said:
I'VE do not propose to interfere with
European affairs or European politics,
neither do we propose that they shall
interfere with the politics or complica-
tions on this side of the Atlantic

from this city. While driving along the
road near Robertsville he discovered
the missing horse being driven by
stranger. He overlook the man and ex-
planned the situation and secured the
animal. The man who had possession
of the horse stated that Shiel had

horse. 1t was also learned that Shiel
then attached the traded horse to the
stolen buggy and drove to another place
where he traded the outfit for another
horse and buggy with some money to

stolen buggy at the place, the farmer
replied that he had disposed Of it and
did not know just then where it was.
The horse was brought to this city and
placed in the barn and a search for the

Wheeler, accompanied by relative,
e. J. Kress, Of 964 North Mckinley ave.
nue.. visited the barn Of w. w. Wire at
Edinburg for the purpose of looking at
some young horses. 1t appears that the
gentlemen were examining the animals
when Mr.. Wheeler walked around back
Of one Of them. It Is not known what
caused the animal to frighten, but In
an instant the young horse kicked back
wards with both hind feet. One foot
struck Wheeler squarely in the mouth,
the other foot just missed him. Wheel

GEORGE HEAzLETON
is SERIOUSLY I'LL

SAN RAFAEL, August 10.-George
Heazleton, manager and editor of the
San Francisco Financial Letter and
we'll known in business circles through
out California, is lying critically ill at
his residence in this city. Mr.. HeaZle-
ton is suffering from the complications
caused by a severe attack of typhoid
fever, and so serious is his condition
considered that Drs. Rosenbaum and
Kahn of San Francisco were summon
ed to his bedside tonight to consult
with DR.. Hewitt of San Rafael. The
physicians announced that their pa
tient was in very low condition, with
only fighting chance for recovery but
they hoped for the best.
George Heazleton was one of the
hardest workers for annexation during
the congressional session of 1S97-1S9S
He went to Washington in the early
part Of the fight and remained there
almost constantly until Congress final
ly passed the act annexing the Islands.
Mr.. Heazleton's wide acquaintance
with public men, and especially those
of the western States, was of immense
value to the annexation commissioners
He was a lobbyist of no mean ability
and splendid knowledge of conditions
in the Islands was in his favor in win
ming over votes Tor the anneXationiStS
among the representatives
Having been for so many years a
writer on financial subjects and cycling
the future commercial interests of Ha-
vail in connection with those of the
Mainland, Mr.. Heazleton was in a
position to speak and write intelligent
~ on the subject of Hawaiian annexa-
ton, which, outside of the declaration
| OF war against Spain, was uppermost
/ in Congressional discussions. One OF
the principal coups d'etat which Mr.
HeaZleton accomplished in the spring
of 1898 was the discontinue of the
sugar trust, which was backing it's in
terests against annexation by using the
american beet sugar industry as a foil
Inc workings of the sugar trust were
made public, and in such a manner
tnat the expose won many votes Over

luton. Mr.. Heazleton was a hard ant
consistent worker, and his friends il
Hawaii are many for the efforts h,
made in behalf of the Islands.

TO REPORT ON LABOR.
Japanese Representative Who Spent
Short Time Here.

a report is expected shortly from the
representative of the Japanese Govern
ment. Commissioner Abe, who spent
some time in Honolulu investigating
the situation here with reference to
japanese labor. Mr.. Abe did not visit
any of the other Islands, and for this
neglect he is severely criticized by some
of those interested. He spent his time
in Honolulu consulting with the Japan
csc consul and the representatives of
the immigration companies and the
plantation owners
1t is barely possible that the Japan
csc Government may send another
commissioner to the Islands to make
some attempt to settle the differences
between the plantations and the labor
ers and to take some steps toward the
repression of the lawlessness of which
so many of the japanese have been
guilty of late.
