Per l'resldent . WILLIAM JTKIXLEY, Of Ohio. For Vice-President THCODOKB KOOSEVELT, Of New York. The colonies of Franco alone Import JP.OOO.OQO worth of goods a year. This helps matsrially to keep the factories busy, and to afford a market for tht farm products of that European coun try. President McKinley urged that the duties to be levied under the Dlngley tarlf hould "revive and Increase man ufactures." This has been done, as cur wage-earn ?rs well know. I-urlng the fiscal year Just closed our foreign commerce far exceeded that of any previous year, while American vessels carried a smaller proportion of it than ever before. The carrying of our vastly Increas ed foreign commerce benefits only for eign vessels, to which the American people pay over $200,000,000 each year in freight charges alone. The American claim to unrestricted facilities of trade in China was based on treaty rights, which were about to be ignored? whsn our claim was made and secured. The United Kingdom sells to her col onies 142-1,112,101 worth of goods every year. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm , .WHO ARE RESPONSIBLE? Philadelphia Times. We have the most appalling story of the indiscriminate and barbarous butchery of foreigners In the Chinese capital. It is possible that later re ports may somewhat temper the fiend ish story, but it may be accepted that many hundreds, and probably thous ands, cf lives of Innocent men, women and children, foreign residents of Chi na, have been sacrificed by the Chi nese troops. Who are responsible for this fearfully crimsoned record that blots the civilization of the evening of the nineteenth century? . The responsibility for this bewildering pacriflee of life rests squarely upon the powers of the world, which precipi tated war upon the Chinese troops at Taku. At that time no one of the governments had Information of the sacrifice of life or property of any of their citizens; and all must have known that when they first assumed the right to control the attitude and action of the Chinese troops, and afterwards de stroyed their forts, they committed an pxt of war and thus Invited the barbarian, according to his Immemorial teachings, to crucify every foreigner within his realm. The precipitation cf war with China by the armed powers, before they had forces in position to defend their citizens, made the mur der of their residents in China the log ical result It will not do to plead as an ex cuse for this act of the allied powers that the Chinese have violated all the laws of civilized warfare by the mur der of foreign residents. They are not n civilized people; they do not recog nize the laws of civilized warfare; they murder and destroy when they are vic tors, and thpy are murdered and their lands laid waste when they are van quished by their own kind. Knowing the war policy of the Chinese, the al !'d powers, who practically declared war when their citizens In China were unprotected and helpless, are fairly responsible for the fearful butcheries which have followed. Admiral Kempff is the one naval commander of ;he allied powers whp proved to the country and to the world that he was thoroughly capable for the responsible task assigned to him. Ho declined to commit any Sot of war, and dhe Buna of his" fleet were silent when the war vets 'Is of the other ra tions wre destroying the Chinese forts: but later, under direct orders, when it was 'lecesjsary to take the promptest measures to try and save the live of those who had been so wantonly exposed to murder, he landed marine; and we are now, by the ac tlon"of the administration, and of the admittedly allied powers, at war with China nd" none can tell what lntr nation'al complications may arise from our present connection with the strug gle. " . - . If it be true,' as now seems to be only too well established, that Ameri cans and' other foreigners in China have been Indiscriminately butchered by the Chinos troop, we must accept the duty Of punishing this flagrant vio lation of the laws of war, and of pro tecting any of our residents there who have escaped the sword of the Chinese warrior. Regardless of the provocation given China, there must be fearful atonement for the Inhuman and in dibrriininate butchery of foreigners. At the worst we joined in declaring cause less war against China; but war among all civilized nations, and even among semi -civilized peoples, protects the non-combatant and the helpless from savagery; and when China accepts war ad an inspiration to murder men, wo men and children, there must be fear ful atonement for such barbarism. We must now take our part in the punishment of , the barbarian for In discriminate murder, and assure pro tection to our ciUseus yet remaining; but when that duty shall have been discharged, we can have no business in Asiatic complications, and our naval and military forces should be prompt ly withdrawn. We can have no part in the parti tion of China that now seems Inevit able, without departing from the most sacred landmarks of our free govern ment, and for such spoliation of Chi na by the great European powers. If they shall make war upon China It Is their own affair; If they shall des poil China of her territory they will be answerable to the civilized world, and If th;y shall involve themselves In ar in their lust for new posses sions," wt- can have no part in it what ever. - . We are fortunate in holding the Phil ippines and they Will ever remain our stronghold In the Eastern sea. It la the key to the commerce and trade of the cradle of the human race, and while we hold it, there can be no relinlng of the map of China by foreign powers without giving open doors for our com merce and products of our Industry. If we shall go ane step beyond the line of defending our own people in China we must falsify every teaching of the fathers of the republic, and prove to the world that the greatest republic ever known flaunts a He in the fact of mankind when it claims to maintain government "of the people, by the people and for the people." DEMOCRATIC niPERIAUSM. The Democratic party has not always been afraid of "imperialism" in fact has never seemed to fear it In the least, If only It could control the "imperial" forces. That good Democrat, Janvs Buchanan, found no fault with Commo dore Tatnall when, in 1859, we being then at peace with China, he gave ma terial assistance to our British cou sins in the capture of the Taku forts, thus entering, upon his own responsi bility, Into a very practical and effective but "entangling'' alliance with Eng-1 land to force the Chinese to deal with us. There can be no higher exercise of "Imperialism" than in compelling by Uiei of arms a nation which asked nothing of us, had done us no harm and only desired to be let alone, to admit u to reside in their country and to assume responsibility for the lives and prop.-rty of our citizens. A Demo:ratlc president not only did this, but went go far as to compel the Chi nese to become responsible for the good treatment of such of their own people as from motives of policy or better mo tives might adopt the religious doc trines which some of us profess. It has also been stat-ad in Mich a way that many believe it that it was only by the rankest kind of Democratic "Imperialism" that H has happensd thai we In California are basking in the protecting sunlight of the great re public, and that it was only by mis carriage of the plans of other "njlnent Democrats that Democratic imperialism was not as successful in Nicaragua as Wishing Willow Furniture mi Wicker Cluiri Yktw tkalre too tacwM soIM.

This has been a growing Country and It Is perhaps not to the discredit of the Democracy, al though sadly ut variance with the Kan sa City platform, that every accession to our area from the peace of 1TSJ up to the year has been made by the "Imperialism" of Democratic presidents, who In no case askod the consent of the people of the annexed territory cither as to the matter of annexation or the manner of governing them after annexation.
