Specimen copies free FRIDAY, WHAT OF THE FU TURE The rapidity of passing events has brought this couutry face to face with complications wat have been an- ticipated only by close students of the spirit of the times. The whole territorial expansion of this country, which in every case has been amply justified by surrounding events, has at the time of its accomplishment been bitterly opposed in many quar- ters and this opposition has been based on the assumption that terri-| torial aggrandizemeut was contrary | to the ideas of our fathers and liable to embroil us in foreign complica- tions, Our national territory has however expanded until it far exceeds the wildest fancy of any of the republic's founders, but there is no one who to- day doubts the wisdom of any of the acts that have increased the area of our national domain. In the past, however, our territo- rial expansion has brought no for- eign complications, but have the rath- er lessened the possibility of conilicts, either diplomatic or by arms, with other nations. But the success of Awerican arms in the Philippice Is- lands has demonstrated the fact that “circumstances alter cases’? in national history as well as in that of| individuals. None of our national sentiments or pringiples is more dear tothe American people, than the Monroe doctrine, But that historic doctrine must now be cast aside or the United States must prepare t abandon the idea of territorial expan- sion in the Pacific ocean which now seems almost inevitable. The eyes of the whole world are} turned towards China. The great commercial field of the future seems now toleion that quarter of the globe. The United States, being a commercial pation, will not be able wo keep clear of the complications that are likely to arise there.

Washington, May 6.—Maj. Gen. Joseph C, Breckinridge is awaiting assignment by Gen. Miles, He nat. urally hopes for a command and or- ders to go to Cuba, and it is proba- ble that his wish will be gratified, al- though there is a possibility of his being retained as cbief of Gen. Miles’ staff. If Gen. Breckinridge is assigned to a command Kentucky will be rep- resented on his staff. Capt. David Castleman, of Louisville, and Desha Breckinridge, of Lexington, have been mentioned in this connection, and one of the gentlemen will proba- bly reveive the honor.

The cavalrymen leveled rifles at the tug, but hesitated about firing. The in- surgents in the meantime hal opened fire, driving the cavalrymen back up the bill, firing as they fled.
