IMPERIALISM AND MANS LA
Dor,
BY BoURKE COCHRAN

BY BOURkE COCHRAN.
Imperialism has come to be a WORD
of great significance and 1 am asked
to state concisely and exactly what il
means for American labor. 1 cannot
do better than refer to a speech which
1 delivered to the students of the Uni
| versity of Michigan in February, 1899
before Imperialism had become, as it
is today, the dominant issaue of our
politics, and the gravest danger, in my
judgment, that has ever threatened our
republican form of government.
AS I said then, it is necessary to dis
tinguish between expansion" and
imperialism" Expansion has always
signified the extension of our institu-
tions through the enlargement of our
frontiers. imperialism is not the diff
fusion of American constitutionalism
over new lands, but the establishment
in conquered territory by this govern
ment of another government, radically
irreconcilable to the spirit of our own
constitution and essentially hostile to
it. Expansion, then, may be defined as
the peaceful development of our DO
litical system through an increase in
the area of the United States, and i'm
perialism as the forcible exercise by
our government in other countries of
powers denied to it at home.
The marvellous growth of commerce
between the states of the Union is due
to its absolute freedom from artificial
restriction. The inclusion of Canada
in this free trade would stimulate
production beyond our powers to con-
ceive
Exactly opposite results would be
produced by imperialistic conquest. The
forcible annexation of Canada would be
an act of imperialism, as Improbable
as it wouldbe unjustifable, and as ca
lamitous as it would be criminal.
A conquered country is always dis
contented, and therefore disloyal. If
would be impossible to intrust the
rights Of statehood to disaffected peo-
pie. Our authority over them could he
maintained only by force, that is TO
say, by standing army and military
rule.
Aside from its inherent hostility to
free institutions. a standing army is |
a crushing burden on the neck of the
laborer.
the first essential of high wages is
abundance of commodities, and a
standing army is an insuperable oh
stacle to extensive production. EVERY
dollar of surplus product or capital in
vested in implements, in machinery
IN buildings, is fruitful dollar. Com
modities used in production multiply
themselves even while they perish
Every dollar expended for munitions of
war is sterile dollar 1t is not used
Tor the purpose of production. but for
he purpose of destruction. 1t is vast

terial affairs are concerned, these OBJ
servations hold good, but when his
spiritual condition is considered, it is
deplorably true that he has made no
progress. We do not say that he has
degenerated, for observation leads to
the conclusion, that the average Italian
immigrant comes to America with his
spiritual bump but slightly developed.
IF, therefore, the great mass Of Ital-
ians and their descendants are to be
saved to the Church, immediate and
strong endeavor is necessary to pro-
duce any lasting results. 1t is ali very
well to talk of the glories of the an
cient Latin, but the average modern
Latin in the United States has got to
be built up from the foundation. He
comes to America, neither controlled,
dominated or influenced by high civil
ization or the ideals of Christianity;
he is a fit subject for civilization and
Christianizing. Our government is do
ing one; will the Church do the other?

ed as completely as if it were thrown
into the sea.
oppose this novel, un-American pol
icy of Imperialism because the grounds
on which its advocates support it are
peurile, inconsistent and dishonest; be-
cause 1T involves the existence of q
standing army to menace liberty and
to Cypress labor by diminishing wages;
because it is cowardiy to invade the
rights of the weak while respecting
those of the strong; because it would
divorce the American flag and, the
American constitution by sending the
one where the other cannot go; be-
cause it is a policy of inconceivable
folly from material point of view.
I favor the traditional American pol
icy of expansion because I want this
republic to continue in the path which
leads to higher achievements of peace
and progress; because 1 want this
country to remain the land where the
patriotic workman who produces Is
more honored than the paid hghtlng
man who destroys, where the laborers
overalls enjoy equal dignity with the
soldiers uniform, where a dinner-pall
is more highly esteemed than a KNAPP
sack, where a spade is deemed more
valuable than a musket, hospital than
battery, a school than fortress;
where the enduring glory Of justice Is
pursued and the vainglory of conquest
despised; where the flag which typifies
liberty and the constitution which Sc
cures it, enshrined in the hearts, sus-
tanned by the arms, glorified by the
memories Of free people, shall remain
invincible, indestructible. inseparable,
