ALLIANCE NOT DANGEROUS.

Salt Lake Tribune: There is a COW
ert threat tnat Europe may combine
against the United States in self pro-
lection; that the powers are d~issatis- Z
fed with the interference of the Unit
ed States in China, and that the Mon
roe doctrine interferes with European
desires toward and designs on South
America.
But there will be a great deal of
hesitation before any such alliance
will be formed. Should it be it would
go into history as "The Tragedy of the
Thrones" for not many thrones would
survive the ordeal. Europe has some
four million fighting men always under
arms. She has some fifteen hundred,
fighting ships. But the more men she
might bring into the field the more
grave would be the question of how to
feed them. The more ships she might
put in commission the graver would
be the question of how to obtain coal
for them. Then to fight the United
States a vast number of soldiers and
ships would have 10 be transported to
this side of the Atlantic and Pacific.
Suppose the props to the thrones were
to be sent away to fight the great re-
public, how many of those thrones
would be able to stand?
There is scarcely a government in
Europe from which thousands of peo-
pie have not come to America to set
tie. The letters hat have been pass
ing for four-score years have fixed
upon the minds of the masses beyond
the sea the belief that this is a land
of hope and of prosperity. To make
war upon the United States would
seem to them like fratriciae.
Again, there are fifteen millions of
voters in the United States, two-thirds
of whom are capable of bearing arms.
The Beers have shown the world what
a few thousand men can do when
fighting on their own soil. Question:
If it has cost Great Britain $780, OO, 900
to ~self-subdue forty thousand Beers,
what would it cost to whip two hum
dred and fifty times forty thousand
Americans on their own soil? There
will be no alliance to come to this
country to fight. There may be, one
of these days, an alliance to go down
and seize a portion of South America,
the thought being that were the Unit
ed States to interfere we would have
to ship armies and war munitions as
far as they would have to go to fight,
but that is not a dangerous thought,
for the old question of 100 for the
people at nome and coal for their ships
would come up again to vex them. 1t
is quite possible that trade alliances
may be formed to stop, if possible,
American products from entering Eur
opean ports, but the same old ques-
ton of food and textiles and coal
would have to be answered. Our
judgment is that while the people of
this country do what is right they will
not be disturbed, at least not in this
generation, and if the trouble is post
poned for another generation, why all
the other powers will by that time
look like 80 cents in comparison.
We need friendly alliances with alb
the civilized world, but that same
world will be shy of forming hostile,
alliances against us. ".
