Attempt to Poison Young Minds.
A more dastaFdly betrayal of a ma
tons confidence was never perpetrated.
The Mckinley administration, anxious
TO befriend Great Britain and to excuse
its own sympathy with the imperialists
now engaged in destroying the little
South African republics, is engaged in
circulating in this country as educa-
tiOnal matter millions of imperiaHstic
documents, prepared by the British
government. And. worse than all, the
attempt is made to poison the minds Of
the growing generation, through their
school instructors, with the faIlacies Of
imperialism and milfJarism by means Of
these English pamphlets.
This is a plot worthy Of AIichievelI;
but IN the face of such evidence there
is no room 70 doubt il, and there can
no longer be a shadow OF denial Of the
dupIicity and treacheTy of an admins

Washington, Aug. 1.-FOr more than
two years it has been charged by men
of the highest standing at the national
capital that a secret alliance exists be-
tween the present administration and
the British government, through which
the foreign policy of the United States
has been. and is, dominated by Great
Britain. Prominent members of both
houses Of congress and many men of
national reputation and influence have
| openly made and reiterated this asser-
| ton in congress, in the columns of the
press and from the platform. The ad-
ministration spokesman have met this
charge with ridicule and invective, but
have been utterly unable to refute it
! categOrically and satisfactorily. The
entire trend of public events since the
accession of this administration to
power has corroborated this startling
charge in every detail; and the policy
! of Secretary Hay has brought out and
eXemplified the true state of affairs
with such clearness and effTentery that
even the most ardent supporters Of the
| administration have found it well nigh
| impossible to deceive themselves as to
the facts.
! Nevertheless the country at large has
| been lOath TO believe that a policy SO
abhorrent to American institutions and
traditions could have been foisted upon
1 the country; and the people have hest
| tated to credit the evidence of the ad-
ministTdtiO own acts, in the absence
I of specific proof But that proof has
/ just been supplied from a most uneX-
pected source and in such form that
there is no longer any room for doubt
or denial.
Discovered By Accident.
Through an accident a conspiracy
came to light in Washington last week
which will startle and arouse the whole
country to a sense of the bitter humil-
iatiOn which this administration has
deliberately invited.
The bureau of education, which is q
branch of the interior department, has
been engaged for weeks in sending out
sets of six pamphlets and leaflets to all
school teachers of the middle-WeSt and
northwest. These documents bear the

shall be in force and shall continue in

same.

the gold Republican ticket received
