HISTORY AND EXPANSION.
In his letter, read before the New
York mass meeting of Sunday night,
ex-PresidentGrover Cleveland said,
"I am so opposed to the expansionist
craze now afflicting our body politic
that any organization formed in op
position to it has my hearty sympathy
and approval."
This is a remarkable blending of
phariseeism and lack of historical in
formation. Mr. Cleveland assumes
that the "expansion craze" is
new in American history, when the
truth is this nation owes its strength
and greatness to an unceasing re
sponse to its inherent instinct of ex
pansion. . .
At the beginning of the war of the
revolution, the territory claimed by
the thirteen colonies formed'less than;
a fourth part of the existing area of
the United States. The vast domain
." west the Mississippi was held by
Spain. .The city of St. Louis, now
in the heart of the great republic, was
then a Spanish Village.
At the beginning, of the present
century little change had been made
in the territorial limits of the republic
France had divided with Spain the
vast region west of the Mississippi,
and the Florida country bad passed
from England to Spain. Then Jef
ferson, writer of the declaration of
indepecdence and the great expan
, sionist of American statesmen, was
called to the White House, and ,the
country entered upon the broad
policy ot expansion which has carried
the flag sonth to the gulf of .Mexico
- and, west to the Pacifiq ocean.
This policy was launched by Jef
ferson against determined opposition
from the contractionists of - his day,
.and it was carried out wjthout con
suiting the wishes of the inhabitants
of the acquired domains. The op
ponents of Jefferson's statesmanship
brought forward every line of argu
ment now employed by the Cleve-
lands, the Bryans and the Hoars.
They said it was unconstitutional
that it was in violation of the spirit
of American institutions; that it was
fraught with peril ; that the Missis'
sippi river was nature's boundary
and when driven from that standpoint,
that the Union ought to set up - the
fabled god Terminus on the summit
of the Rocky mountains.
But it is not surprising to find
. Cleveland in opposition to expansion'.
Although he sat eight years in the
' "White house, his interests and sympa
,. thies were always notoriously against
the great west and the people who in
habit the superb domain acquired by
the genius of Jefferson. 'Tiswell
that he was president in, a v period
calling for no exercise of the higher
qualities of statesmanship. , Had he
been president when Jefferson was in
the White House, the union would
have been contracted, probably
France and. Spain would retain
large part of the existing domain of
the United States, the Monroe doc
trine could not have" been launched
- and the American continent would
have become the theater of inlermin
able European- intrigue. Spokesman
Review.
LINCOLN'S LITERARY GENIUS.
'A writer m McClure's for January
azserts that Seward wrote the rough
draft of the superb closing paragraph
of Lincoln's first inaugural address.
. Here is the paragraph said to have
been submitted, by Seward : .
"I close. We are not, we must
not be, alliens or enemies, but fellow
countrymen and brethern. Although
passion has strained our bonds of af
fection too hardly, they must not, 1
am sure they will not, be broken. The
mystic chords which, proceeding from
so many, battlefields and so. many
patriotic graves, pass through all the
hearts and all hearths in this t broad
continent of ours, will yet again har-
kmonize in their ancient music; when
breathed upon by .the guardian angel
of the nation."
This was a fine conception, but,
marred by inelegant treatment, it be
came rather ordinary. Note now the
change wrought by the literary touch
of Lincoln : '
"I am loath to close. We are not
enemies, but friends. We must not
be enemies. Though passion may
have strained, it must not break, our
bonds of affection. The mystic
chords of memory, stretching from
every battlefield and patriot grave to
every living heart and hearthstone all
over this broad land, will- yet swell
the chorus of the Union when again
touched, as surely they will be, by
the better angel of our nature."
It is interesting to note that the
Toronto Globe found this noble ad
dress of a ''tawdry, corrupt, s3hool-
boy style.". Was ever a- more glar
ing instance of mediocrity decrying
he ma jestic flight of genius? .
