FORCING THE FIGHTING.
Senator Hale and
men of New England seem inclined
to force the fighting on the treaty of
'peace with Spain. There always has
been a group of statesmen in tbe
eastern slates opposed to the ex
pansion of the United States wesv
ward. Men of this type in the revolu
tionary era were opposed to the ex
pedition of General Clark which
brought the Northwest, an empire in
extent, to the Union. The New Eng
land anti-expansionists opposed
every proposition to control the ter
ritory west of the Mississippi, and
were willing to surrender Oregon to
England. They were opposed to es
tablishing states on our Pasific coast,
aud some of them, like Senator Hale,
are no violently opposed to further
expansion or to the lurtber develop
ment of trade on the Pacific.
Webster and some of his contempo
. raries were indilTerent as to Oregon
because they believed it never could
be brought into close relations with
the Union. To others the "great
American desert" was the bar to
civilization pushing westward. When
tbe "desert" had been crcssed and
occupied these faint hearts halted in
dismay before the Rocky mountains,
but the people moved on and founded
new states.
Recent hostility to expansion west
ward has been based on business in
terests. A few New England manu
facturers imagine that if great in
dustrial communities are built up on
tbe Pacific coast, under the encourage
ment of ihe expansion policy that is
to extend American control into the
Pacific, tbe Atlantic states will suffer.
This is as fallacious an argument as
that advanced in opposition to rail
way building. But now every one
admits that if the railways had not
been built, the county, East and
"West, North and South, would not
have been developed.
The building up of a great trade
on the Pacific will undoubtedly be
of immense advantage to the Pacific
states and to all tbe states of tbe
middle west. The latter are looking
for markets in both directions. But
it is a mistake to suppose that the in
crease of American influence on tbe
- Pacific will net benefit tbe Atlantic
states also. The Pacific trade as it
stands is of great value to the
Atlantic states. The construction of
the Pacific railroads greatly increased
its volume and value. The exten
sion of American influence into the
Asiatic Pacific, the building up of a
great merchant marine on our west
ern coast, the cutting of the Nica
ragua canal, all features of tbe ex
pansion policj-, will still further in
crease the value of Asiatic trade to
the Atlantic states. Every step in
the expansion policy from 1783 down
to tbe present has been of advantage
.to tbe Atlantic states. Eastern men
like Seward and Blaine have been
leaders in extending American in
fluence to the Pacific. Senator Hale
is now opposing the policy of Seward
and Blaine and the interests of his
own section.
But if the anti-expansionists are to
make a fight on the annexation
clauses of the treaty of peace the
friends of expansion must rally to the
support of the treaty. A dozen or
more United States senators are to
be elected within the next two
months. Tbe successor to Turpie in
Indiana, to Allen in Nebraska, to
Mitchell in Wisconsin, and tbe suc
cessors to'Democrats in other states
where senators are to be elected
sbould be expansionists and protec
tionists. If this is to be the great
question before the senate let the
friends of expansion prepare to meet
the issue squarely. Members of the
seyera! legislatures know bow their
constituents feel, and they sbould
It would not be possible for con
gress to play with the Nicaragua
canal question any longer, even if it
should be disposed to do so. The
question has been ripening for many
other public i3rears and it is now ripe enough to
command attention.
Two Pointed Questions Answered.
What is tbe use of making a better
article than your competitor il yon can
not get a better price for it?
Ana. As there is no difference in tbe
price the public will buy only the better,
so that while 'our profits may be smaller
on a single scale they will be much
greater in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to know
your make is the best?
If both articles are brought prominent
ly before the public both are certain to
be tried and the public will very quickly
pass judgment on them and use only tbe
better one.
This explains the large sale on Cham
berlain's Cough remedy. The people
have been using it for years and have
found that it can always be depended
upon. They may occasionally take up
with some fashionable novelty put forth
with exaggerated claims,1 but are certain
to return to the one remedy that they
know to be reliable, and for coughs,
colds and croup there is nothing equal
to Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. For
sale by Blakeley & Houghton.
Pains in tbe chest when a person has
a cold indicate a tendency toward pneu
monia. A piece of flmnel dampened
with Chamberlain's Pain Balm and
bound on to the chest over the seat ot
pain will promptly relieve tbe pain and
prevent the threatened attack of pneu
monia. This same treatment will cure
a lame back in a few hours. Sold, by
Blakeley & Houghton.
