For0er President "sePmonises" q
some Eject an the Colo
ntnl system.

In his speech at the annual dinner
OF the Holland society OF New York
ex-President Cleveland expressed again
re views which he has been known
to hold concerning the nations recent
expansion policy. lie believes now
that with the definite adoption Of CO.
lonial system the country has been car
ried away from its traditional purposes
and principles and twill never be the
same again." "For veal or woe" he
declares, I'VE have already irrevocably
passed beyond the old lines" He says
further:
The republic will in some sort be
saved. Shall II be only in name and
semblance. with fair external appear
ance. but with the germs OF decay fas-
tened upon its vitais. or shall II. though
changed, still survive in such vigor and
strength as TO remain the hope and pride
OF free Americans? The problem Is a
momentous one. Its solution depends
upon the extent TO which the old patriot
ism and good sense OF our countrymen
can be rescued from impending danger
The warning which Mr.. Cleveland
thus gives with an evident sense Of the
gravity Of the situation is not one that
can be lightly dismissed or answered
with sarcasms by the advocates of the
present attempt to make the govern
ment exercise imperial control of the
recently acquired island possessions.
The question as 10 the nations ability
TO control the Philippines is, in Mr..
Cleveland's view. incidental. 1t is prob
able. IS he points out. that we can con-
quer the Filipinos. and even hold them
under some form of orderly govern
ment. The real question is whether
this nation, ia departing from the prin-
ciples which have made il great and
following in the old paths OF the ma
tions which have advanced 10 imperial
power only TO pass into decadence, Is
not consenting TO 'perversion of its
mission" What we may or may not
succeed in doing in the Philippines is
far less important than what the con
tinued control of the Philippines may
do to MS.
1t was scarcely necessary for Mr..
Cleveland to apologize for 'sermoniz-
ing upon such subject or for plead
ing with sober earnestness for policy
of caution and conservatism. The duty
now resting upon the executive branch
OF government and upon congress is
one of vital Importance, and il could
be wished that there were more men
of the influence Of the ex-president
TO stand out and declare what they be-
lieve TO be the course of patriotism
Now more than at any other time the
nation is in need of discerning patri-
otto critics.-Chicago Record Und.).

"BREAKlNG" THE COLT.

lie said he would break the colt or know
the reason why.
And may say on his behalf that bravely
did he try,
But all the breaking that was done was
managed by the colt.

hard and sudden jolt

him with cart
lie tried him with all kinds OF tricks to
make him stop and start;
And he would start and he would stop.

That proved most disconccrting and &C.
casioned much distress

gone through.
The owner gave expression TO this true
but solemn view:

thing had to break
But I'm the trining details have made
great mistake.
1--WE broke the harness and the cart: we
broke n saddle. too.
We went against the garden fence and
easily broke through:
We also broke the pasture gate the time
he tried to bolt
In fact, there's naught unbroken but this
measly. stubborn colt.
''But there s been much accomplished. for
I'm ready now TO say
Tbs better part OF valor / hereafter Will
display.
The colt is still unbroken. but the
thoughtful one can see
The effort was not fruitless. for the brute

Hanna's Foxy Move In His Engineer
ing Of the ship subsidy
Grab scheme.

Senator Hanna, although one of the
most autocratic of bosses when he
feels secure in his control of power
Is q shrewd spokesman who recognizes
the wisdom which declares that half
q loaf is better than no bread
1t is evidently on this principle that
Hanna has resolved to proceed in the
matter Of the $50. 100000 ship subsidy
grab now awaiting the action OF the
national congress. The great synd-
cate agent in American public life is
now readjusting his cards so as to
play hedging game. This is because
there are stronger hands against him
than he had at first allowed himself
to believe.
II Is this policy which has led Han
ma to consent, as now reported, TO the
amending Of the ship subsidy bill in
certain respects to conform to the
ideas of opposing senators. The
truculent boss has discovered that he
cannot compel the passage of the
Ubiquitous measure as il now stands
He knows that both himself and the
Mckinley administration would be
discredited by its defeat, and that the
syndicate behind the bill would suffer
material loss. lie is assured that the
amended bill will have clear MAORI
ties in the senate and house An
amended ship subsidy grab is better
than no grab.
Whatever else may be said of this
man Hanna. it must be confessed that
he is the incarnation Of commercial
lied politics. II is his creed to reach
out for everything in sight. Then. IL
he cannot get all that he wants. he
will take what he can get. The
amended ship subsidy bill will work
grievous injury TO the American peo-
pie, but Hanna will finally secure its
passage. And then, with the people
suffering under its vast tax burden.

can congress that il was not willing

President of the United States, with
greater responsibilities restinge upon
him that had come to any President
since Lincoln, he proved himself
statesman of breadth who could show
the nation it's way, and command its
confidence and support. Perhaps no
American in public life has proved
himself so tactful as he. Certainly
none has ever possessed the amiable
qualities of mind and temper to make
himself so universally beloved. His
lifelong devotion to an invalid wife
has been his crown of manhood. But
after all else has been said, the quality
that commands our strongest admira-
ton was the unspotted integrity of his
personal character and the purity and
uprightness of his private life. With
respect to this quality of scrupulous
and never-questioned personal honor
he stands almost by himself among
those on whom the fierce light of pub
licity has been turned for a lifetime.
That the example of such a life, order
ed to walk in high places, has been
given to it's young men, to be known
and read of them all, let the people of
the American Nation give reverent
thanks!

presIdent,s Eather and Mother.

Robert B. Roosevelt an uncle of the
President, was a member of Congress
shortly after the close of the civil war,
He was American minister to the Neither
lands during the second Cleveland adj
ministration, and with Horatio Seymour
and Seth Green was one OF the original
commissioners of fisheries.
Theodore Roosevelt, the President S
father, was a man with the same practi-
cal interest in his fellow man that his son
has shown. He was the hacker of
Charles Loring Brace in his work of gath
ering the forgotten waits from the city's
streets. 1t was the elder Theodore
Roosevelt who went to Washington after
the first battle of Bull Run and warned
President Lincoln that he must get rid
of Simon Cameron as secretary of war,
with the result that Mr.. Stanton took
his place When the war was fairly under
way, 1t was Theodore Roosevelt who or
ganized the allotment plan which saved
to the families of $4,000 soldiers of New
York state more than $5O00,000 of their pay
and when the war was over he protected
many of the veterans against the sharks
that lay in wait for them and saw that
they got employment Like father, like

The tributes to President Mckinley
which have been written and spoken
within the past week are without num-
Der. Every preacher and every news
paper has given an estimate of the
man. We could not, if we would, add
newness or strength or completeness
to the list. But the two incidents
above quoted illustrate the strongest
characteristic of the dead President
his absolute and unselfish fidelity to
every trust reposed in him. Men of
other parties have opposed his political
views with all the strength and some
times with all the bitterness that they
could command. We of his own party
have not always agreed with him on
every question of policy. But no fair
minded man has ever doubted William
McKinley's sincerity or honesty. AS
a leader of political party at a criti.
cal time in that party's history, he
showed himself without a peer. AS
