PARKER is NOT A SAFE MAN.
Will BE Influenced by the Radical
Element in His Party.

If his own ntterances are to be cred
ted-and nobody is diSputing them
Judge Parker in 1896 and 1900 was not
for free silver, but on the contrary was
an advocate of the gold standard. and
Yet he admits to having voted for Bryan
and free silver twice. How strong his
convictions and principles were for sound
and honest money maS best be judged
by his profession of one thing and his
practice of another.
II then as a virtually private citizen,
protected as it were by the divinity he
seems to think hedges in the judiciary.
Judge Parker-possibly then without
shought Of further political preferment
could not bring himself to elevate
principle above politics and to place pa
triotism above partisanism, how could
he be expected. in the fierce light that
beats upon place OF political power and
preferment to prove other than mildly
plastic and complaisant to the widest
demands Of the Democratic Huns and
Nandals who would rend asunder the
very fabric of government in their wild
scramble for place and pie, pelf and
self?
Is it not wiser for the people Of this
nation to keep erriHg and SHINING Democ-
racy. possibly, but not positively peni-
tent, on probation awhile lonscr-at least
until il has brought forth fruits meet
for repentance!

COMMERCIAL SUPREMACY.
That Is What Will Follow Our Control
of the PACIFIC.

Laying aside the other questions to
be affected by locality, is it possible
that any sensible human being. living
west of the Rocky Mountains, could do
anything but support what those who
are fumbling for objections to the exist
ing administration call Imperialism"
This attitude is not confined TO those
west of the Rockies alone-far from it.
because, with new means of trade com
munlcation, we are as one people in our
handling facilities across this continent
but to the people of all the Pacific
Coast States especially must appeal the
fact that much of their future welfare
must depend upon the new and extra
ordinary pathway the United States has
made across the greatest of all the oceans
and has so connected itself, for all com
mercial purposes, with the greatest of all
the old nations of the Orient.
Business is business. We have taken
into our hands the management of the
Pacific Ocean and we are quite capa BILE
OF retaining that management under any
circumstances. Upon our retention of it
de ponds, to an extent our commercial
welfare. We are the great producers
of new land--a vast continent vet in
ITS infancy, and our welfare must year
~ depend to a great extent upon what
we export. We have exported to Europe
and the East and exploited the Atlantic
almost to it's utmost; now we purpose
to export across the Pacific and supply
with whatever they may need the teem-
ing millions of the Asiatic continent
Upon the realization of this great indus
trial dream, which has become fact.
must largely depend. in the future the
commercial welfare of the American peo-
pie. Does any group of fatuists, oppos-
ing whatever has become an absolute es-
sential. think that by raising the cry
of imperialism" the course of demands
of great lines of trade of great nation
can be deviated for moment? Nom

THE AMERICAN COURSE.
A Policy that Works TO the Advantage
of Commercial Interests.

We are what we have become, and We
propose to hold cur interests as a world
power for the benefit of the American
people. This is the Republican program.
Hence the recent Shanghai incident
China is an enormous nation occupying
an enormous country, just now in a state
of dissolution or reconstruction-nO one
can tell which The various nations with
various interests look upon its territory
with longing eyes, but it does not seem
best, with the interests of all considered,
that it should be dismembered 1t APP
pears to be best for the interests Of all
the other nations of the world that it
should be aided rather than divided.
This course has been decided upon by the
leading nations of the world, following
the suggestion and W It'll the assistance Of
the present Republican administration Of
this country. This attitude is certainly
right morally, and, in the long run, must
be right as to material interests, particu-
larry for the people of the United States.
Russia and Japan are at war There
has arisen an incident which il some
what an anomaly in international affairs.
Warships have fed into a neutral port Of
China and other warships have pursued
them. Under the laws of nations no
battle may occur in a neutral port, such
as that of Shanghai. The United States,
taking the initiative, has promptly inter
vened to see that no violation of the laws
Of nations may occur. aud has done this
because of the belplesSness of China, vast
as the empire is, to enforce all proper in
ternational Obligations in its own bar
borS
This is but in keeping with the tone Of
what the United States under the pres
ent administration has done before. 1t
suggested and induced an agreement be-
tween the great nations that China
should not be dismembered. Having TAX
en- the initiative in this respect, it was
but right and proper that we should take
the initiative in seeing to it that what
was suggested and built up by us should
be enforced This has been done.
That is the way the present admins
tration of the government is doing things.
That is the way it viii! continue to do
things. The doing of this is for the
greatest good for all the commercial in
terests aud other interests of all the
world. The doing of this implies aud in
wolves immediate executive action by the
administration of the United States. 1t
ia for the good of the world.
Imagine such prompt, sensible and
forceful action under the administration
Of man like Parker, admitting for
moment the possibility of his election.
Well, we can't imagine il.

Of course appealed TO. The facts that
our farmers find their best customers in

TARIFF TRIM MING.
Why the Work Should He Intrusted

This is bnt an allusion to phase of
what the Republican party. as it exists,
is doing and is going to do. particular
phase to which reference is made casu-
ally. AS to the regulation of the tariff in
the future. Those who make things
know best what to do with the things
they have made. The Republican party
having made the tariff. which has made
this country the most prosperous of all
the countries of all the world. is the
only party which can readjust the tariff
as oycqSinn may demand
Naturally. and very properly. from
their point Of view, the opponents of the
Republican party concede nothing. As a

TRADE WITH THE EAST.
We Have a Pathway to Asia aud Will
Maintain 1t.

There lists, practically. no limit TO
the enort .ous possibilities of trade with
asia for our Western wheat-growing
States. Japan will be the entering
wedge. Already we are in touch with
Japan. already we are on the friendlest
Of commercial relations with her, rela-
tons certain to become closer and clos
er. Already Japan is beginning TO eat
wheat instead Of rice. Her many mill
lions of tons Of rice Japan consumes
every year cannot, of course, be dedn-
itely ascertained. The total is some
thing enormous. But the sudden fact
appears that already Japan is begin
ming to eat wheat instead of rice.
With mutual regard and commercial
good-fellowship existing, and with Japan
now turning to -four, and with the whole
western side of our vast empire with
-four to give to the rest of the world,
the condition becomes most simple. For
the good OF all concerned, whole nations
considered, it is necessary that we should
put our wheat and -four across the Pa
cifc Ocean and give to our brothers,
OF any color. what they may require,
and, so, benefit them and greatly benefit
ourselves
The fact that the Japanese army is
using the American bareback cracker is
fact tie tremendous consequences OF
which in it's commercial possibilities, has
not yet been realized. 1t means that
Japan has begun trading earnestly with
the United States in the cereal upon
the production Of which SO much of our
commercial welfare depends. and yet this
is hut a starting point as to what is
coming to the United States in supply
ing Asia with food. ia pan is our friend
aud will undoubtedly remain so through
out the future, but Japan. wonderful as
she is. is but the fringe nearest to us
OF hat great Asia, overpopnlated aud

sphere to feed t. under newly existing
conditions.
The conditions have benI provided by

This crime will not he committed. The

tanned and maintained by the United
States of America imperialism" as
they call il or not the bald fact remains
that under the present Republican adj
