But, while it is comforting to note these things, they are perfectly natural things in this country. It so happens that William McKinley, a republican, is President, and hs is seeking and finding democratic and pepulistic assistance in dealing in the coun- try's interests with the outside world, but if a democrat were in his place he would as readily seek and find republican and populistic assistanc> to the same end.

Each of these speeches sounded the note of a reunited country, an aroused patriotism on the part of the people and their unlimited faith in the strength of the government and the wisdom of their rulers: The national spirit stood forth clearly revealed in the eloquent words which came from the lips of Commissioner Ross, Postmaster General Smith, Dr. Stafford and “Corporal” Tan- ner. In different lines of thought, they ‘d upon the point of the righteous- he American cause in the war with d the strength of the new national They thus indicated one broad » of the blessings of this closing inter- nation! episode. The local sentiments expressed by the Speakers were all to one effect: the return- ing volunteers must be welcomed heartily, enthusiastically, joyfully, gratefully. The men who went forth from the capital city must be received with tenderness in view of their sufferings and with thanks for ir services and their sacrifices. This mt becomes more than a local occasion, for in the welcome tendered to the soldiers who went forth from Washington the whole pation speaks eloquently of the pride in its army which now animates every state and county and town in the Union. The praise of the regiment coming from the speakers and echoed in the cheers of the audience ts well deservd. These men “"y to the call of duty and have gone forth unflinchingly to face the mar.ifold dangers of war in a destruct- ive climate. They have “been under fire, their presence in the trenches was an im- portant factor in the Investment and sub- sequent surrender of Santiago and they are now coming home, some in small de- tachmen: ick and weak, the others in two details, comparatively able-bodied, but unquestionably showing the marks of camp life in the fever-ridden Cuban country. The regiment has dene its duty, it has suf- fered, and it deserves all the community can give in the way of a welcome and a helping hand. Mr. Tanner voiced The Star's sentiments, outlined yesterday, when he warned those before him that the city’s duty would not be fulfilled when a banquet and a rousing reception had been tendered. There are mouths to be fed, and backs to be clothed, and the multitude of expenses of modern life to be met. These men are in many cases returning without means. Their pos!- tions have in some instances been filled by others during their absence and will not be returned toe them. The proper reception for them is not to be measured therefore by what may be done when the regiment re- turns in a body to this city. Their welcome should be going on now, as the sick sol- diers come back, one by one, to their homes, or in larger bodies to Montauk Point or Boston, some to suffer from the lack of proper attention, some from the failure to hear a kindly voice in greet- ing. Then, after the regiment gets back, after the suggested fireworks have been dis- charged, and a banquet perhays has been eaten, and the echoes of the music have died away, hard, bitter problems will arise, to be met by individuals destitute of the means to cope with them, whose energies have been sapped by Sanitago’s fever. Then will come the need of preserving the spirit of last night’s enthusiasm and transforming it into acts of charity and patriotic sacrifice for the sake of these brave men. Then will fall upon the citizens the gravest task of all, requiring labor, and generous and thoughtful consideration after the first effervescence of sentiment has subsided The work, so well started last night, wi'l doubtless from the very begin- ning be conducted with a business-like thoroughness, none of the necessities or the proprieties of the case being neglected. The men who have been named as chair- men of the committees in charge of ar- rangement and finances commend the un- bounded confidence of all citizens. ———- +0e ——_. The Chicago Platform. Ex-Senator Blackburn is out in opposition to territorial expansion. As the recognized leader of the Kentucky democracy, he has just been expressing himself on current topics for the benefit of his followers. He advises them to hold on more firmly than ever to the Chicago platform, and on no account to become converts to the new pol- icy which the war with Spain has devel- oped. He admits that it is popular now, but predicts that it will not be two years hence. By that time, as he believes, the people will have seen the error of it, and those who have inaugurated it and pushed it along will not be in popular favor. Then the Chicago platform can be brought for- ward again, readopted, and made the basis of a presidential triumph for the silverite: This is original, to say the least of it. Territorial expansion, whatever Mr. Black- burn may think of it, is on the cards and cannot be defeated. The democracy is as- sisting in the work. Hawaii is American territory, and Porto Rico is certain to be. Cuba, by the free choice of the Cuban peo- ple themselves, may come to us in no great while. One of the Ladrone Islands is ours. Through control of Manila and the bay, the largest of the Philippines is ours, and may remain ours even if we do not decide to take the whole Philippine group. Having enlarged our boundaries, therefore, we shall necessarily be obliged to consider the new territory in the shaping of our future na- tional policies. « : And what does Mr. Blackburn propose for 1900? The Chicago platform. Which () A proposition to put the United States into financial antagonism to all the rest of the commercial world. After enlarging our boundarles for the purpose of increasing our trade with foreign nations and bring- ing us into closer business relations with them, we are to chez ing to a silver basis when the: gold basis, and thus make our: y prey A general indictment of the govern- ment of the United States. We have held Hawaiians, and we are holding people of the Spanish colonie: that ours is the best form of government under the sun; that it secures freedom and such opportunities for happiness and pros- perity as no other form of government guarantees; that its merits grow with the years and cannot be surpassed. But the Chicago platform, In effect, denies all this. It impeaches the federal judiciary, denies the federal power, inveighs against capital, and represents the country as easily given over under party management to misrule and gross favoritism. Should we confront our newly-made coun- trymen in Hawaii and elsewhere with that sort of address almost immediately after raising the flag over their heads? Should we gain anything by it anywhere? The Chicago platform, as a political document, was not adapted to the country when con- structed, and it will be less adapted to it two years hence. It is not at all likely to be reaffirmed as written. ——_> = ____ There ts a possibility that New York may sive Richard Croker an exhibition in the rough riding way that will make his ex- periences with the Derby pale into insignifi- cance. ————_> +e —___ ‘The Ohio democrats who arrange a plat- form will have to exert themselves with great industry if they hope to equal the re- sourceful originality of the men who get up the campaign rumors. ——~ + —___ Lieutenant Hobson might simplify mat- ters of requiring that photographs be sent in advance of any osculatory proposals. «= —___ Gener. !

Jamaica is today the most important of the British West Indies, and tn its position possesses great value to the owning bower, especially in view of the practical certainty that the raguan canal will soon be completed. Geographically the island be- longs to the American system and, like Porto Rico and Cuba, its amalgamation by the United States would violate none of the physical unities. Trade relations are mainly responsible for the Jamaican desire to change existing conditions as intolerable. The acquisition of Porto Rico by the United States and the change of the Cuban status combine to forecast a commercial future for the Brit- ish colony cut off from Atmerican trade which will not mollify the steadily devel- oping feeling of insubordination on the part of the commercial classes of Jamaica. A large meeting is now projected, to con- sider ways and means of loosening the Present ties binding Jamaica to England. An address to the crown is proposed, be- seeching the right to institute a plebiscite to ascertain the drift of Jamaican senti- ment toward @ change of sovereignty. This outspoken -spirit is somewhat amazing in view of the customary subservience of the British colonies to the governmental de- sires, and it serves to a certain extent to suggest the impression that perhaps Lon- don is not so deeply concerned at the quasi- rebellious attitude of the colony as would surely be the case under normal circum- stances. But it is to be borne carefully in mind in this connection that the present circumstances are by no means normal. England is more friendly to this country than ever before. She has looked with equanimity upon the expansion of the American territorial lines and political and commercial influence. She has failed to disapprove the acquisition of Porto Rico and she has apparently welcomed the pros- pect that the United States shall become the medium of final disposition in the Phil- ippine problem. - Somehow the sitvation in Jamaica and that in the Philippines are not easily dis- associated in the light of present and im- pending affairs. The suggestion readily arises that perhaps out of the present tangle some kind of bargain may be ar- ranged whereby this country would secure possession ef Jamaica and Great Britain would gain control of a part of the Philip- pine group. The United States is at present in position to retain, for permanent or for trading purposes, all of the Philippines. No power is now entitled to raise a hand in protest. A dicker of Philippine for West Indies property, fanciful and improbable as it may appear, would find some advocates on the ground that it would relieve the United States of the burden of governing a vast Asiatic population in the far east beyond what is necessary for safeguarding and fostering our naval and commercial in- terests there and would add to the domes- tic strength by giving possession of a valuable island near at hand, rich in re- sources, generally healthful, capable of ex- ceptional development and_ strategically important. Jamaica having taken the initi- ative, whether spontaneously or by inspira- tion from London remains to be developed by subsequent events, the path toward a trade is relieved of one of the serious obstacles in the way. ———_—_< ++ —___ Kaiser Wilhelm recently donned a helmet and led the fire brigade into a burning building.

Frem the Boston Post, President McKinley would save some trouble in the future by .making public now a statement in effect that the peace commissioners on the part of the United States will be instructed to put up with no nonsense on the part of Spain. ‘The details might properly be reserved for the formal instruction of our ccmmissioners. These would include an absolute refusal to have anything to do with the debts of Cuba and Perto Rico, the absolute exclus- ion of Spain from ali concern as to the sort of government we are to set up in the An- Ulles, and the absolute submission of Spain to the terms of territorial indemnity which the United States sees fit to exact in the Philippines. As Senor Sagasta seems to imagine that the protocol opens the door to preposter- ous claims on the part of Spain and to negotiations which could easily be made interminable, a supplementary ultimatum, unofficially proclaimed, would have a very salutary effect. Something of the sort seems to be needed. If we may credit the statement attributed to Sagasta regarding what Spain expects to bring before the peace commission for discussion, it ts evi- dent that he fails to understand that Spain is whipped and that there is precious little left to discuss. President McKinley can enlighten him, delicately and unofficially but emphatically, on this point; and he ought to do it. ———+ +. —____ Capt. Philip’s Conversion, From the New Haven Regieter.
