ALGER ON BoEa SYMPATHY.

In the March number OF the North
American Review" there is a remark
able sysposium on the South African
war, to which Captain Mahan, the
Marquis of Lorne, Professor Macvane,
Sydney Brooks and others contribute;
but in the brilliant array there is no
article more pertinent or interesting
Just now than the one by ex-Secretary
Of War General Alger, discussing the
attitude of the United States toward
the major belligerent. The keynote
Of General Alger's paper is really the
application of fairness-or what he
calls squareness-to the public treat
meut Of great International questions
nothing more or less, in fact, than
the exercise Of the Golden Rule. Af-
ter pointing out that men naturally
differ about the necessity and justice
of all wars. instancing the war Of 1870
between France and Germany. the
Graeco-Turkish war. and our own con-
fiict with Spain. which even some
Americans condemned General Alger re-
marks that it would be strange in
Iced If the war in South Africa were
IN exception to the rule; but he COM
plains that in the United States the
expression Of opinion on the war has
exceeded legitimate limits" pointing
out the ostentatious judgments OF a
number Of public and presumably rep
resentative men. and the numerous
resolutions adopted by meetings Of
private citizens and even by some Of
the state legislatures Then he recalls
England's conduct two years ago.
when. he says, Great Britain stood
conspicuous among the nations as our
friend. Nor was her cordial sympathy
walueless. She remained strictly neu-
ual; but her whole attitude toward
us was SO unmistakably friendly that
its influence in preventing what might
otherwise occurred in the way of Eu-
ropean Intervention will never be ca
pable of full measurement. We owe
her deep debt of gratitude. and the
very least We can do is to abstain from
interference in her present struggle in
Sonth Africa"
General Alger severely condemns the
recent utterances Of Candidate Bryan
on this subject, and his words are
worth quoting:
1T is greatly to be regretted that a
man NJ Mr. Rrvap's noeftiou honfnp

as he ines Il trust and believe in valn)
that he win some day be president OF
the United States, should go about the
country trying to create difference
between America and Great Britain.
He is the spokesman Of a great party.
aid It would not be surprising H.
speaking in that capacity. he placed
the country in a false position before
the world in its relations to the South
African situation by passing from
place to place, attempting to further
his political ambitions by tanning into
fame whatever anti British sentiment
he may find among our heterogeneous
population. Here. where he is known,
the object Of his endeavor TO insite
the American people against the Brit
ish will be understood. and his state
ments viii be valued at their true
worth. So far as l am aware he has
never contributed anything that has
added to the substantial growth OF
this country, either by employing men
or doing anything to develop our In
dustries. To use little slang, he
seems to produce nothing but wind
and noise But abroad. where he is
regarded only as a political leader,
with large following, his words as to
the policy Of friendly nation may
have greater weight and effect than
they ought to have"
1t is a very good thing to mentally
put yourself in the other fellows place
when a serious controversy arises-to
try and see the matter from your op-
ponent's standpoint General Alger
forcibly illustrates this idea. II. he
says. during our war with Spain, the
leader Of one OF the great political
parties in Great Britain had INDUCED
in frequent denunciations OF the Uni
ted States and OF the motives which |
us in our determination |
to free Cuba from Spanish control, his
conduct would have aroused the most |
bitter resentment in the minds OF our
people. IF in the house OF commons |
or in the house OF lords prominent |
British statemen had introduced reso-
utions condemning our government |
and expressing sympathy with the
weaker power against which, under
1 sense of duty, we had turned the vast
resources OF our country, the act would
nave excited just indignation in the
breast OF every American patriot. But
We had no such experience. And hold
hat We should treat Great Britain in
1900 as squarely as she treated us In
$685."
These wise words may be prohtably
by some Of the exuberant
gentlemen in both houses OF congress,
{ they wish to be esteemed as some
hing better than mere demagogues
Is well as by that great body Of think
ng Americans who are always anxious
o be fair and Just in their treatment
# others.
