HpIIlC clnnor faning this coimiry is not of thp yellow A I'ticcs, hut of the yellow jojinmls like the llearst paiers, Portland Oregon ian and Loh Angeles Times, that arc continually trying to drive this country into war with Mexico. It matters not to them that such a war means the killing and maiming of thousands of American citizens, because from their point of view (he common main's hilt a tool to be used or sacrificed by the capitalist as his own judgment and desires slmll dictate. The taking up of arms hy a nation is to be .justified i it ft it .1 ili ii. only wneu in neiiaii 01 some luiHiiimemai mini or prin ciple that is vital to the welfare of a race or nation. The war of the revolution was fought, for the Securing of self-government by the colonics. The war of 1812, was fought to secure the ships ol seizure by the ships ol (I real Hritian. The civil war was fought mi the one sidtj I'm the eradication of chattel slav ery. The war with Mexico was of different character. Its purpose and object was the plunder of a weaker and less civilized people, and considering its object was very suc cessful. The history of the war with Mexico, should be a cause of shame to every reader of history. The terri tory wn acquired was almost necessary to the frest. de velopment of this nation, but it conk) ajl have been ac quired by purchase. If it had been so acquired tliQrc would have been no civil war. The military spirit engendered and fostered iu the south because of the war with Mexico gave the south con fidence in their militatry prowess and strength that led them to armed resistance to the constituted authorities)!' he nation. Up to the time of the Mexican invasion the people of the country looked forwari to (he abolition of slavery. Hut that war placed the military sayo oligarchy so firmly iu power that they were able to change ho sen timent of the nation. , . The war with Spain while abetted by the people from the humanitarian view, was caused by the sugar trust who, patd lor tho creation ol the They have the sugar lands ol ('una and the I'hihppines, purchased at the cost; of thousands of lives, and the people pay the bill. The diabolical part of the Spanish war. is that the (Iiiban question would have entirelv been settled by peaceful means within a war, precipitated by the destruction ol the .Maine, which was sent to Cuban waters, without, any practical benefit, and without any reason except that a war-ship ought to be near fighting. A peaceful settlement would have doubtless suited the sugar trust as well as war, but the sentiment it created had been seized upon for political purposes, by politicians like liooscvelt a'nd Hearst who gave it such' momentum, that it swept the president and his advisors off their feet. What has been, the net result of the "war with SpaijW Who has been benefitted I Are taxes less or wages more ? Mas the burden of the fathers and mothers of America been made lighter? Does the future look more hopeful? What have we to show for taking on the while man's duty of civilizing the brown man with bayonet and grilling gun, except the death-roll of American sohfiors'J If we will reflect but a moment', we can remember that a few short yeais ago, to quest ion the justice of our war in the Philippines was to invite insult and ostracism. Public men like Senators Hoar and Mason and Kdward Atkinson, with .veal's of honorable atrd stainless record for humanity and progress were derided as traitors and foes of their country, . . ... Seizing the opportunity created by the war spirit, the trusts and monopolists used it to drive honest men into obscurity, and fasten their chains upon the people. Dur ing tho period following the Spanish war the trusts grew as never before. While the people were fed on war news, tho trusts grabbed the resources of America. They need one more war to occupy the minds of the people, while they build up a system that will prevent them from regaining their stolen heritage. The glamour and pomp of war unfortunately leaves an impress upon people that reason and justice can not com bat. It is like the smell of the blood to the wolf that makes it rend and devour its wounded mate. The great peril of war with Mexico, is not the killing of many in the war, but tho after effocl. Such a war would mean the military yoke, for this country. We would become .the object of suspicion of every country of South and Central America, and of Japan and I'hirope as well. Kvou now the shouters Cor a larger army have almost drowned the voice of reason. With danger of war with a foreign country, their prpgram would succeed. It would nicaiMhe triumph of the jingo element iu the national administration and in the halls of congrcHS ruder such rule, the people would soon find that the large standing army was not only for the purpose ol pro tecting us against a foreign foe, hut for the purpose of preserving order at home. What would that meaii' The running capitalist can tell you if he will. I, est you forget, think of the last two years iu Colorado. Time was when the labor of this country could not go out on a strike, except to be confronted with armed militia or Kederal troops. The militia on several occasions re fused to engage iu the work of coercing their fellow men with the bayonet. Since that. time capital has conspired to secure the enactment of laws that would enable capital iu a contest with labor, to lay hands upon a force that would hhoot to kill upon cumqiaud. A few years agu it wa planned to establish army potsts near the large cities to bu handy to keep down disorder, and meet the cry for bread, with the fire of artillery. A war with Mexico means half a million nrmed men, who will be hrutaluod by the beastline of war. With their triumph the rciifiut of government would he seined by the element that pny the Hessians who talk and fight fur war, with ."MKJ.UQG seasoned veteran behind them, who would Ih nuwteml out till the plutocracy of this country ban cloat'd and holled the dtwuv of protfrctw, and owlicrited tho roaulta of the afctnigglo of lib Onaimi'niiudiid yeans.
