IMPERIALISM A KILABAJiOO.
"Epithets are n convenieut recourse
for those to whom nrguraont is un
attainable but they are not likelj' to
prevail with intelligent people who
never mistake them for argument,''
says Congressman Brosious, of Penn
sylvania, in the August number of
American Commerce and Industries.
"To set up a man of straw is an
easy device where no real object of
attack exists. This is the tamiliar
trick of attacking something different
from what is asserted,. And ngiin
.where there is a course of behavior
which is unussailaolc on its merits
but which admits of a metaphorical
designation, the adversary whose
cause can only rely upon the artful
stratagems of the dialectitian chooses
a metaphor suitable to his purpose, a
term or epithet of reproach that is
supposed to carry odium or obliquy.
"It is a stupendous concession to
the weakness of their cause that our
populistic-democratic brethren are
driven to the employment of the
devices to which I have referred in
the conduct of their warfare on the
republican party. The paramount
issue, they say, is "imperialism,"'
whatever that may be. It is obvious
enough that that they intend to con
vey some "hideous" if not "tragic'
meaning by theuse of this term and
that its application to the republican
ioreign policy is intended to cover
this administration with the foulest
reproach and the deepest odium and
bring it into universal discredit
They do not take the pains to define
the meaning of the "epithet." They
leave it to do its supposed deadly
work on the principle that Curran
applied the term "hypothenuse" to
the fish-woman, that it would be
effective in proportion to the ob
scurity of its meaning. They do not
realize that in pursuing such a course
they are making what Thackeray
would call an indecent exposure of
their intelligence, for Americans can
not be bamboozled by meaningless
epithets however htdeous they sound.
They do not believe with Napoleon
that governments are run by epithets
or thai party victories are won by
their use. The faint gleam of light
their platform throws upon the "con
tents of the expression, indicates
that they propose doing in relation
to the Philippines just what the re
publican party has been doing and
will continue to do to the end.
"The pretense that the republican
party is committed to the policy of
compelling the annexation of the
Philippine Islands against the will of
the people is a wicked perversion of
the truth and could be resorted to
by no one, but the devil himself,
only in case of the greatest extrem
ity, and it may be disposed of in the
language of Abraham Lincoln in
replying to his distinguished rival,
senator Douglas, when he said
uoes the gentleman mean to stand
in majestic dignity and pass througl
his apotheosis and become a god by
Lis antagonism to a proposition
which neither man nor mouse in all
God's creation has over advocated ?
"In the light of the discussion in
the populist-democratic press for
the last few months the epithet 'im
perialism' in its relation to realities
finds an apt illustration in an anec
dote told by a fiiond of mine. A
wag exhibited a queer looking box
which contained, he pretended, u
terrible animal that would eat people
alive. He exhibited it on one oc
casion in New York. The beholders
asked him what it was. A 'Kila
baroo,' he replied. 'Where does it
come from?' It came from Africa.'
What is its color?' 'Green as
jealousy.' 'What docs it live on?'
It lives on snakes.' 'Where do you
get the snakes?' 'I get them from
my brothur-in law.' 'Whore does he
get them?' 'Well, he gets them out
of his imagination when he has de
lirium tremens.' 'Oh, then, they nre
imaginary snakes," exclaimed the
crowd. 'Oh, yes, it is an imaginary
Kilabaroo. There is nothing in the
box but it scares many foolish
people.' "
