DEMOCRATIC EXPANSION.

The fact that the G lobe favors ex-
pansion while being bitterly opposed to
imperialism seems to strike some of our
Republican contemporaries like a Chinese
puzzle. They have been defending i'm
perialism so long that it seems to them
like an indispensable adjunct of expan-
sion. They do not seem to be aware that
the Democratic party did an enormous
expansion business long before the Re-
publican party was born, and established
principles and precedent for all times to
come. We quote from the Fairmont
News:
''The ST. Paul Globe, although a
Democratic paper. is very mucn in favor

siSts that they must be allowed all the
self government possible. AS to how
mach liberty and self-government is pos

and much fear that the esteemed G o b e
IS simply laying foundation for fault

same seif-goVei nment as the nation on
which it is dependent is a conundrum
that requires a Democrat to solve. No
Republican is equal TO it
We certainly do insist that our new
territories must be allowed all the self
government possible, in fact, they must
receive practically the same sort of lib
erty and seif-government as we our
selves enjoy. Anything short of that
may pass as a matter OF temporary ex-
pediency, looking toward something bet
ter; but it is not to be thought that the
American people will approve of perma-
nently establishing despot!c form of
government over subject races
Our present method of governing the
Philippines has been Endorsed as a mat

every nerve to supersede the present form

wolves, deer and all wild things are to

in the natural course of events, will

The fact that the district embraced
within the limits. of the proposed park is
largely pine barrens, worthless for aglt-
cultural purposes, did not disturb for a
moment this dream of tributary empire.
The light of discussion, however, has
driven the opponents of the park from
one position to another, until Congress-
man Page Morris, the national mouth
piece of Duluth, falls back on the argu-
ment that the~Indians object to national
control as park, of their reservation.
This statement can be appreciated only
when it IS known that Page Morris is
not joker, and that this reason repre-
SCENTS the best results of four years of
opposition to the National Park idea
1t is now up to the Indians, and Duluth
is convinced that these government
wards will fare better in the hands of
the lumbermen than under the control of
national authorities.
The facts are, TIE proposed park would
bring more trade, more people, more
prestige to Duluth, than the same sec
ton, if settled, would ever bring to any
city.
The future of Duluth is assured and
it rests not on the possible trade of

ritory to the west, but upon her ineom-
parable location, her commerce and the
Unmeasured mineral wealth at her door.

The tendency to accept state socialism
as a possible remedy for existing indus
trial and social inequalities which shows
itself on the part of the less thoughtful
of the people and among the dissatisfied
classes generally, while it is not as gen
eral as many looked forward to. is rec
ognized as one of the developments of
modern life The impetus which Bell
amy's Looking Backward gave to the
movement in that direction has not been
sustained, although the Socialist prora-
ganda is still maintained in many direc-
tons. Speculative thought has been

the event of the state undertaking to d.

through the various communities estab-

1t is beyond doubt that such a line OF

much light on the question.
All that We know OF such experiments
from the time of Owen to the present day
shows, first, that such communities are
as a rule short-Iived. The average dura-

amiable executive of the city of Mime
apolis are being daily fulfilled. They
looked forward to that distinguished gem

fetal existence in that community at the
very outset and continuing in that line
of activity during the entire period of
his term. Thus far there is the amplest
reason for believing that Dr. Ames will

the views and policies of a man who
knows neither fear nor reserve in the en-
forcement of his own views of the rights
and prerogatives of executive officials.
DR.. Ames' extension of judicial mowers
to his police force is of course only the
second instance thus far offered of his
purpose to make things interesting for
the city and its people during the
next two years; but, taken in connection
with his removal of one-half of the ex-

DULUTH AND THE NATIONAL PARK

DULUTH AND THE NATIONAL PARK.
Who has not seen a headstrong man
opposing a measure which every one else
recognized as being for his best inter-
ests? His opposition is based, not upon
any well defined reasons, either good or
bad, but on the fact that some certain
individuals, whose motives he suspects,
are supporting the measure.
When the proposition to create about
the head waters of the Mississippi river
a National Park, that a fragment Of the
ancient forest of Minnesota might be
more deadly enemy of our forests-the
aYarlcious lumberman, was first made, It
unfortunately originated with Chicago
and Twin City parties. This was
suficient-Duluth was opposed to the
scheme. For was this not a cunningly
laid plot to bottle up the Zenith City and
cut il off forever from the future trade
of vast territory, naturally tributary
to her markets? Was not the support
of the Twin Cities sufficient evidence
that the park proposition was inimical to
the best interest Of Duluth? Had not
these same Twin Cities long been jeal-
Gus ef,the rising fame and growing trade
Of the only seaport city Of the state?
Filled with these and similar conceits,
Duluth rushed into the lists as an avowed
opponent Of the National Park idea. The
