Critics of the Paris treaty speak of expansion as a monstrous evil a policy freighted with destruction and despair, says the Review. They lose eight of the indisputable truth, which all history proclaims, that the po litical divisions of the earth must expand or contract, must absorb -or be absorbed. Countries are great under ex pansion, reach their supremacy of power when they cease to expand and pass into decline with the loss of their possessions. Thus Rome, thus Turkey, thus Spain; and thus China. For centuries the Chinese empire has adhered to the doctrine of se clusion. Its boundary was long guarded by a great wall; its ports were closed against the world's fleets; and its statesmen refused to participate in the diplomacy of na tions. The results speak for them selves. The Chinese nation .hns grown narrow, conceited and impo tent. Its history has been written, and the great book is soon to be closed. Russia, Germany, England, Japan, and now Italy, have entered upon the work of breaking the empire into fragments. Nations will rise to greatness, and their people will be broad, as they rise to their opportunities and their duties. The United States owes its power and grandeur to expansion It has grown greater as a result of the war with Spain, and its people have grown in breadth and knowl- edge. We have learned our strength and have discerned our weakness, "We know now that piior to this war we were becoming encrusted in a national conceit which was danger ous to our peace, and safety. In some measure we were indulging the perilous notion which has brought China to dismemberment that we were invincible in our numbers. We know cow that population of itself counts for little in warfare; that the deciding factors are navies and dis ciplined soldiers. In brief, the judgment of the American people in international matters has broadened amazingly in a single year. Some persons seem to regard this cbaoge with trepida tion. Farm for Sale.

Sven if the Cubans decide for independence instead of annexation, which is ex ceedingly improbable, American mil itary occupation will last for several years yet. Until order is completely established and a government of .some sort which will preserve order and protect the property and interests of all the people, foreigners as well as natives, is in operation in the island, American military occupation is certain to be maintained. This is a question, however, which is not ib urgent need of speedy settlement. ! Orlppe Successfully Treated. "I have just recovered from the sec ond attack of La Grippe this year," says Mr. J as. A. Jones, publisher of the Leader, Mezia, Texas. "In the latter - case I used Chamberlain's Cough Rem edy, and I think with considerable suc cess, only being in bed a little over two days against ten days for the former at tack. The second attack I am satisfied would have been equally as bad as the first bnt for the use of this emedy as 1 bad to go to bed in about six . hours after . being 'struck' with it, while in the first case I was able to attend to business about two days before getting 'down.'
