CONCSBN ABOUT AMERICA.
It is clear Europe is far astray re
garding the sort of influence which
the United States is going to exert
in the politics of the world. This
fact is brought out by expressions of
Borne public men and newspapers on
the other side of the Atlantic in the
past two or three days. Oddly
enough, Premier Salisbury," though
unintentionally, is partly responsible
for this misapprehension. In a speech
a few days ago the Premier remarked
that this "is the first year in which
the mighty force of the American
republic has been introduced among
nations whose dominions are expand
ing, and whose instruments, to a cer
tain extent, are war." He added
that be is not refusing sympathy to
America "in the difficulties through
which it has passed, but no one can
deny that its appearance among
factors Asiatic at all events, and pos
sibly in Eurapean diplomacy, is a
grave and serious event, which may
not conduce to the interests of peace,
though I think in any event it is
likely to conduce to the interests of
Great Britain."
Throughout Europe, in and out of
England, it is plain that an interpre
tation has been put upon these words
which their author did not have in
mind when he uttered them. Some
of the English papers say that the
Premier's woids in relation to the
United States are "ill-advised" and
maladroit." One of them, the Lon
don Chronicle, says the entrance of
the United States into the politics of
the world will neither make for war
nor be a partisan advantage to Great
Britain. Outside of England the
Premier's words are exciting some
alarm. Silvela, the Spanish conser
vative chieftain, said recently, in
referring to these remarks and to the
result of the American congressional
lectionsast Tuesday, that America
is determined to "extract the full
pound of flesh from Spain." The
diplomats of the various European
countries who are stationed at Rome
imagine they see in the Salisbury
speech indications that "an under
standing exists between London and
Washington." This feeling is voiced
by many of the newspapers in France,
Germany and Spain. As the Lon
don Spectator says, "the statesmen of
the continent fear the advent of the
United States in European politics,"
they think there is "an Anglo-Saxon
alliance," and they imagine this has
"all manner of menaces" to the peace
of Europe.
All this is surprising to the United
States. On both points covered by
continental Europe's forebodings the
American people can make a very
positive disclaimer. No alliance
exists between the United States and
Great Britain. The entrance of the
United States in the politics of the
world carries with it no menace of
war. It is possible that there is an
a t -
understanding ueiween tne govern
ments of the two nations on certain
matters of foreign politics, but it is
safe to say that if any such agree
ment exists it is in the vaguest and
most general terms. It falls far
short of what is understood in conti
nental Europe by the term alliance.
The United States would enter into
no alliance except in actual war, and
that compact would cover no exigen
cies except those occurring during
that struggle or directly growing out
of it. There is not the faintest prob
ability that any conditions will arise
at any time in the near future to
make an alliance necessary or desire
able. Tkere is a certain sympathy
and identity of interests existing be
tween the two countries, and this fact
being, known to all the world an alli
ance is not needed. The influence of
the United States will be for peace.
providing Europe refrains from in
terfering with American concerns.
America, however, will resent any
attempt at coercion like that which
continental Europe made against
Japan after the war with China. By
the exercise of her guardianship over
the affairs of the New World for the
past three-quarters of a century the
United States has done more to
maintain the peace among nations
than any ether country. It has thus
done a grand work for civilization,
and in the future its services in the
same cause will have a broader scope
than in the past, and they will tend,
unless there is European interference,
to extend the blessings of peace
throughout the world. Globe Demo
