"MORGANEERING AND MORAL" Tit a Great Lrcnih Author Luin- poon the JEnglitth Nation In a Brilliant . . ' Eftsaj-, NHW TORK. May t-Henry Labou cbere, In this week'a Truth, under the heading of "Morganeerlng and .the Moral," tells the British nation, says a Herald dlsiHttch from London, that its supremacy In trade and commerce Is not only threatened, but doomed, and that It will take all the beat efforts of which the empire Is capable to prevent a retrograde movement, which, if It begins, will increase year by year. Mr. Labouch?re says: - "To the Impartial observer It Is a trifle amusing to watch the perturba tion of John Bull at the march of the American capitalist. For a generation or two past the gospel of salvation of mankind by the agency of Brrtlxh cap ital haa been preached with sincere conviction. Whether it was a dying, nation In Europe or Asia, a sickly re publlo In South- America, an unre claimed region of Africa, peopled by Idolaters and cannibals, or even a poverty-stricken British colony, the means of regeneration were always the same; let British capital and British enter prise exploit the. patient thoroughly, and there will be an end to all his diseases, political, econoipic or social For 50 years we prea -Jied this gospel and acted upon It religiously. Now comes a little turning of the tables. "With a much larger population and immeasurably greater natural resour ces, the United States offered a field for the accumulation of greater wealth than we can ever aspire to. , "Americans. In their turn, now as pire to regenerate the world by Ameri can capital and American enterprise. They practice upon us the doctrine which we so long applied to the rest of mankind. Lastly for the present tbey lay sacreligloua bands on the shipping by means of which 'Britan nia rules the waves.' ;i "No wonder John Bull is In a comic state of consternation! Instead of the exploiter, he is becoming exploited. "For about 20 years we have been beset, with a erase of acquiring !n the out-of-the-way places of - the world, new places for British capital and new markets f jr British goods. The erase has colored bur national thought and policy. . " "While we have been pursuing this phantom, what haa the foregner been doing He. too, seeks an opportunity abroad for his surplus capital and a foreign market for his surplus goods. And jvhere does he flrst find them Tn England. ; "While we seek to extend the area of our commerce" and of our Incre ments by acquiring control of con trlee that have, no population, or of people who have no wants, the manu facturers and Investors of Germany and America find In this country the finest opening In the world. While we sink millions In the construction of railways throughout the South ' Afri can continent which can not yield a return within the life of the present generation, or perhaps the next, the American capitalist discovers a remu nerative Investment for his mljlions in Improving the means of locomotion In London. , "Whllo we spend oountless millions in annexing vast tracts In Asia and Africa and malntalnlg armies to de fend them, with 'the view of supply ing a penniless population with goods from Manchester and Birmingham, out German and American competitor supplant us tn our pwn country. "Individual -fools have often enough dropped the substance to grasp Its shadow, but never before has a whole nation deliberately committed Itself to this folly. ' . "Our supremacy In trade and com merce is not only threatened, but doomed. "Yet, by utilizing to the best advan tage our resources In raw material. capital and labor we can hold our own, even If we are 'orcd to see Germany and America Increase their , ouiuut faster than we can. It Is only by the stupidity of squandering our capital in foreign countries, overlooking the opportunity of employment at home, 'Aat .foreign capital can supplant Brit ish In any home Industry "But at :he present crisis of our eco nomic history, which are the objects that chiefly occupy out minds? The regeneration of South Africa, or by the Introduction Into that accursed land of British capital and labor, the expansion of our army at the expense of our labor market, squandering time, money and energy on the empty ostentation of the coronation- cere mony, which will suspend Industry, dislocate trade and : divert publl" thought from matter of pressing and evil Imports 'At the moment while we are thus engaged, Mr. Morgan and hla col leagues descend upon us, aeeklng what they may devour. Almost wltWn'an h;ur of the king's feast come forth the fingers of a man' hand and write upon the wall. It is easy to read tbe warning and not difficult to accept and act upon It. Shall we atttnd to It at once otthsil we finish our wine and think about the Medes and Persians after the din ner?" GEER FOR THE SENATE PETITION FILKI WITH Till: SEl'KKTAItY.
