Are they not right. those who are
alarmed over the Increase of impe-
rialism which threatens the nations
Iof American
Is there not reason for the bitter
distress of mind of those who mourn
the death of liberty and the historic
dem ocracy Of the great Republic,
converted into an empire?
The constant examples given to
us by the mother country answer yes;
the repeated disturbing demonstra-
tions of expansionism justify the
fears which keep those nations, close
TO the threatening colossus, in state
of alarm
Democracy is perishing in North
America.
1t is seen that the most glorious
American traditions are no longer
held in respect; all that is patriar-
chal and simple is being discarded,
to the democratic traditions is prefe-
rred an aristocracy which indicates
a complete and censurable forget
fulnes of all that constitutes the most
legitimate glory of that country,
The memory of the illustrious
Washington and for al that he stood
is being buried in oblivion;the impe-
rialists seem to care no longer for
the doctrines With he cherished so
dearly, but on the contrary admire
more the heroic acts Of President
patterned more after Kaiser; they
are tired Of the placid evocation Of
that evangelical figure, Of that great
creator of nation, and the redeemer
of British slaves
Washington and his doctrines arc
the nightmare of the present gener-
alton, oppressed and infected by an
Unsuitable Bureaucracy
For some years the natural Amer
lean spirit has been retrograding, as
the descendants of those men who
cherished democracy are becoming
the fanatics and servile worshippers
of tyranny and oppression.
But up to now we have not seen
the august memory of Washington
publicly shghted by giving preferen-
ice to discussion Of war budget
over the treasured respect that his
memory ought to inspire in every
true American.
That is what has occurrediin Wash
ington in the House Of Representa-
yes, according to the statements of
various prom incnt papers.
1t IS reported that one of the mem
bers made a motion that, owing TO
the solemnitv of the anniversary Of
the birth of Washington, the session
of the House be suspended out Of

tokens of respect to the illustrious
.dead, in honor of a President no
longer living, and who most likely
according TO the strange taste of the
present American generation is less

The memory of Washington has
been sighted in the national par

What haste, what rapidity, what
reason SO powerful and peremptory

Republicon that day could not render
proper tribute to the glorious father
|of his country?
Can there be any eHcpse for the
Iconduct Of the House,
There is no excuse. not even if
the most extreme charity should
seek to lessen the inex0rable iudQ-

lncensed with such proceedings.
On Washingto on S birthday, on that
solemn occasion when a patriot was
invoking the august memory Of the
creator Of a 5free nation, democracy
should have recovered its power, the
beautiful tradition should have tri-
umphed over all the trivialities that
now occupy the mind of the rep
resentatives of that great country:
and in that temple Of national sover-

of illuSOry gceatneSS, but which still
.palpitates in the innerm0st public
conscience, and which may again
come TO the surface when awakened
by supreme will and a strong spirit.
Out of respect to the memory Of
that commanding figure and Of his
great work, which has failed owing
to the acts Of others, the voice of
patriotism should have been heard
on that day in the American Congress
advising pause on the present road
which leads to any place save great,
