"Colonial Po!icy"--a Bubble. Prick
It.
What's the use of worrying about our
colonlul policy before we need to have any?
| The American people have made a success of
| self-government; why shouldn't they make a
I success at governing whatever colonies may
j fall into their hands as the result of the war?
; —Minneapolis Journal (Rep.).
No use in worrying ac all, yet the
i Republican newspapers are worrying
j lest some such fool policy, known as a
colonial policy, shall not be recognized
I and adopted by their representatives in
| congress. A colonial policy is especial
ly attractive Just at this time with Re
publican editors and sons of their fath
ers- who have been seeking eommis
| sions from a paterr.-al administration at
Washington. The plain people, how
ever, want no colonial policy and no
such experience as is implied in its es
tablishment. They are stiil bearing the
burdt ns of a war whose Appomattox
passed into history nearly forty years
ago. Th?y can appreciate what is
j meant for them and th-Av children when
! a colonial policy is suggested Involving
a large standing army and the enor
mous expense of a navy to support it.
The Democratic leaders in congress
j have been dilaitcry in not promptly and
j aggressively opposing the scheme o!
territorial expansion now shaping up
j in Republican circles.
The policy of the Democratic party as
j regards ihe acquisition of foreign terri
! tnry has twice b^en defined !n its na
j tional platforms, ajid in each instance
it began and ended with the proposition
regarding Cuba. No wider a departure
from ifehe counsels of Washing-ton and }
; Jeffer&on . than the protection of our
Gulf ports and the possible acquire
ment of an island at our very doors
was c-ver contemplated by Democracy's
great leaders in the past. Theirs was
the policy that made tho party strong
at home and Rs foreign policy respect
ed abroad. There shou'.d be no depar
ture from it tcday, and that Democratic
senator who will wear out a radical
I senate by his opposition to the anr.exa
j tion of Hawaii and other remote terri
tory peopled by the leprous and the
mixed products of the nations of the
Orient, as Gorman did by his opposi
tion to the unjust legislation proposed
for the helpless South, will win the
plaudits of his party and earn the
gratitude of his countrymen.
The Democratic party, at Cincinnati,
June 6, 1856, recorded its convictions
upon the questicn of territorial acquisi
tion, in these words:
Resolved, That thu Democratic party will
I expect of the next administration that every
proper effort will be made to insure our as
| cendfney in the Gulf of Mexico and to main
tain permanent protection to the great out
lets through which are emptied into its waters
the products raised out of the soil and the
commodities created by the industry of the
I people of our Western valleys and of tho
Union at large.
The Charleston convention of 1860
split upon other issues than that cf
territorial acquisition, but its Demo
cratic members defined the policy of
the party in the following te-miperate
language:
Resolved. That the Democratic party are
in favor of the acquisition of the island of
Cuba on such terms as shall be honorable to
ourselves and just to Spain.
Forty-eighit days later, at Baltimore,
the seceding Democrats adopted this
identical declaration, and succeeding
everats have justified the wisdom of
therr position. Cuba is ours and Porto
Rico, if we want it, by right of war.
Hold them we may. if necessary, but
with Hawaii and the Philippines the
case is entirely different. Hawaii can
give us nothing but trouble. The Phil
ippines will cost us blood and treasure.
Hawaii can contribute nothing to our
ccmimercial supremacy whiah cannot
be secured by the usual stipulations
recognized by the nations of the earth.
Do we want a coaling station? Treaty
obligations have conferred that privi
lege upon ua already. Have the sons
of missionaries robbed its natives of
their birthright, and, unable to protect
their plunder longer, do they propose
to make this country a party to their
crime? Then let the rogues go hang,
as were ha.n.ged some of their fathers
before them, who met the west coast
Africans with a Bible in one (hand and
a bottle of rum in the other, 'beguiled
them aboard their ships and sold them
to the plantations of the West Indies
and the mainland.
The permanent acquisition of terri
tory remote from our own shores Is
in -direct antagonism to the principles
recognized by the fathers of the re
public, and advocated by such great
leaders of Democracy as Jefferson,
Jackson and Tilden. Colonial govern
ment is class government, and is in
herently hostile to the welfare of the
governed. The Democracy are, and'
their leaders in congress ought to be,
unalterably opposed to the establish
ment of any form of government under
the American flag in any quarter of thj
globe, to be administered and manipu
lated by either military or civil offlee
holding classes. Territorial expansion
involving enormous appropriations an
nually for standing armies and modern
fleets is a burden which ought not to
be imposed upon a peaceful and prog
ressive nation without first securing the
sanction of its people.
It is time enough to discuss the char
acteristics of a colonial policy when the
people who must bear its burdens have
spoken affirmatively for it. Until that
time It is the duty of Democratic sen
ators to oppose territorial expansion
most vigorously. They should prick the
bubble of colonial policy before it has
grown and dazzled the unthinking by
its brilliancy.
No colonial policy !_No entangTlng" al
liances with the heathen or the highly
civilized — no, not even with John Bull!
"They're Hunting a Grievance."
So commented Bank Examiner Ken
yon upon the plank in the platform
■which sets up his mismanagement of
his office as one specification to the
general charge of Republican malad
ministration of the affairs of the state.
Mr. Kenyon is in error. They were
not "hunting" a grievance. They did
not have to. Mr. Kenyon furnisihed it
in plenitude. They did noft even have
to find it. It hit them and hit hard.
And its hitting was not confined to
Democrats. It hit Democrats, Repub-
I licans, Populists and Silver Republi
cans alike. People do not have to
"hunt" a grievance that hunts them
and finds them. Mr. Kenyon is alto
gether too complacent.
Mr. Kenyon is bank examiner for the
state and for itho'se who put their
money in banks and their faith in him.
This is not a private office, like that of
a private detective agency, in which the
manager is a rule of conduct unto him-
self. It is a public office, and the law
took care to lay down rules prescrib
ing what 'the incumbent should do. It
left nothing to his discretion. Un
fortunately for thousands of trustful
depositors, it did leave some things to
the discretion of the governor, to whom
the bank examiner reports the results
THE ST. PAUL GLOBE- — SATURDAY JUNE 18, 1898.
Of his examinations. The governor used
his discretion and kept in pigeon holes
the facts that, published, "would have
saved thousands and thousands of dol
lars to those v.-ho needed them badly.
Mr. Kenyon's duity was to examine
the condition of the banks that wrest
down in a crash tjpsat involved thou
sands. It was his duty to ascertain if,
for instance, directors and bank offi
cers or their wives were borrowers;
what kind of securities were taken, for
loans. If he found capital impaired or
money misappropriated or officials bor
rowers In excess of their rlg'hts, It was
his duty to demand immediate repalr
ment under penalty of suspension. He
could have receivers appointed where
solvency could not be restored. This
was his duty. If be had served the
public that pays him a generous salary,
that is what he would have done. He
would not have left the matter with
the governor, for he knew ithat person
age, as an individual, was also involved
as a borrower of deposits and other
wise.
He did not do this. He used his di-s
--cretion, his individual discretion, for he
has no official discretion. He permitted
insolvent banks to continue business,
taking in the money of confiding de
positors who trusted in the guardian
ship of the state through Its bank ex
aminer. They accepted, as they had a.
right to do, the continuance of the
banks as an assurance from the bank
examiner that deposits made in them
were secure. They went on dropping
their earnings and savings daily into
the maws of rotten banks, rotten to
the knowledge of the bank examiner,
until the dry rot ate away the last s^lp
port, and thousands o-f men and women
woke up to find that their little hoards
had been swept away. This is the
"grievance" which this self-satisfied of
ficial says the people were "hunting."
When, a century ago, French peasant
ry, with hunger gnawing at their
vitals, demanded bread, De la Tour dv
Pin, governor of Burgundy, made an
swer: "You want something to eat?
Go and graze; the grass is just coming
up." He also thought that those im
portunate folk were merely "hunting a
grievance."

A Swede and an Irishman, both of them tol
erably well known about town, got into an
argument in front of the court house, and
they began telling each other how it was too
bad that their ancestors had ever happened
to shed the wolf robes and take to living
under cover. When things got a bit warm
the Swede remarked that there was no doubt
In his mind that the Irish-man would be en
titled, by reason of his ancestry, to join some
of the pedigree associations, but for the un
fortunate fact that mest o-f those ancestors
were hanged for stealing sheep.
"I suppose they did the'.r sheep stealing
with the understanding among themselves
that they were all kings and that it was all
right to go over into the next county and
steal whatever they could lay their hands
on," said the Swede, in conclusion.
"Yes, an' be all accounts," said the Irish
man, "your ancestors lived in kingdoms so
very small that every time they smelt a
stockfish in the yard of a neighbor they
jumped ever the fence an' got it, an' if they
got back they made a national affair of it if
there was any pursuit."
"Talking about deer hunting there is ths
much to be said, "remarked George Parker
during a lull in the yarn spinning. "The only
man — "
"Let me tell It myse'f, Kunnel Pawker."
said Col. Ike Westover. "Talkin' 'bcut deer
kiilln' I think I'm entitled ter a heirin'. Up
at ma place at Dead Lake, I wuz huntm'
deer one day in th fall uv '79, I had killed
five and had ma amj!=unition kinder wet. I
wuz goin" erk>ng borne takin' a deer path en
the edge of a ravine, when I sees a bunch uv
black tails ooiuin'. They wuz a buck in the
lead an' he wuz ecmiu along (.hat path. I
knew it would nevah do, sun, to be In the

tuk a fresh chew er tePbacker. They wuz
six uv them in the herd an' I jeat made up
ma mind they wouldn't all get away. Well,
suh, you perhaps wouldn't believe it uv any
body else, but I'll stake ma reputation on
the fact. As those deer came erlong under

an' blinded 'em with terbacker juice, an' i

During the circus parade this week whon
the people were massed at the intersect'on of J
Sixth and St. Peter streets, interest was sud- i
dercly diverted by the appearance of a bridal |
party being driven rap'dly through the crowd I
to the train. The bride, who wa3 still i
adorned with her veil and bridal gown, leaned I
back in the carriage and sought to evade the j
curious eyes cf the people along the side
walks, and the bridegroom affected an air of
calm indifference and stared straight at ths
other side of the carriage. There was a I
murmur of comment all along the line, and
then the interest returned to the question of !
the parade.
Ten minutes later a hush fell over the men, !
women and children, and the bevy of news- !
boys in the middle of the street hustled to j
the sidewalks to make way for a second !
party. This one was a funeral. Slowly a i
white hearse passed through the stilled -mer- i
rymakers, the little casket within being, odd
ly enough, of a somber bla^k in color! Be
hind came carriages carrying the relatives j
and friends of the babe. They were colored I

EVANGELIST MCODY'S REPORT.
Work Done Auiong^ the Soldiers by th~
Army Christian Commission.
To The St. Paul Globe:
Your readers already know something of I
the rank of the army Christian commission
I am enclosing herewith the latest news '
about it.
A hymn book has been prepared by th«
commission for free distribution to the sol- '
dlers. It contains a number of patriotic !
songs and i 3 immensely popular with tho j
men. The chaplains have adopted it as th
official army book.
Several thousand of the good books with
which the soldiers have - been so much
Pleased have now been sent to the sailor™ It
is the de3ire of the -commission to suprlv
every vessel in the navy with them.
Three large tents have been pitched 1n
Camp Merritt, San Francisco, and th-y are
constantly crowded with men. Gen. Brooke
and his officers at Ch'ckamauga =neak ver»
warmly of the benefit those at Camp Thomas
havo been to the army.
Dr. Dixon, of Brooklyn, says he never
preached to such responsive and apprecia
tive audiences as tho soldiers at Tampa !
The pastor of tho Presbyterian church there ■
says many hundreds of the men have already I
been converted. ' r
Reports that Mr. Moody is receiving from
many parts of the country lead him to be
lieve that a marked spirit of religious inter
est pervades the army. He attributes it to
the fact that their condition has made tho
men more than usually thoughtful, and that
Christian people have been making this work
a special subject of prayer.
Gen. O. O. Howard is sneaking in differ
ent cities on the work of the commission
He says that where there is such a man
as Mr. Moody has sent to the army camprv
there should be ten. The men are ready
but more funds are needed. Send contribu
tions to D. L. Moody, East Northfleld, Mass.
It is probable that the commission will
send a tent and two men with the next ex
pedition to the Philippines. A liberal sup
ply of good books has already gone.

ALUMNI'S SIGHT TO RECRUIT
EIGH SCHOOL GRADUATES' AS
SOCIATION WELCOMES '98
■ _^
I: ' :
Social 1111,1 |ufoiriual Event That
Terminates <j(»p ClualnK of the
HlKh School lUir and Conmc
Offlct'i-fl EUt-ctcd, Followed I>>- a
Rrlef Programme H. B. Martin,
'DO, ChoMen Pr£xident.
The purely stx^al and informal event
of the graduating' season for the seniors
of the Central 'high school came off last
evening at assembly hall, in the high
school building, when the alumni of
the school held a reunion and gave a
reception to tlfe graduating class.
The only formal feature was the elec
tion of officerS', and that was not al
lowed to interfere with the festivities,
for it w-as not completed. The pro
gramme for he reunion was, for the
rest, altogether of the entertaining or
der. There were felicitous addresses,
singing, some bright dialogue sketch
.work, and then followed a collation
and when the seniors had gone home
there was dancing for the younger ele
ment.
There were about 250 people in the
hall when President Leavitt Corning-,
'SO, called the assemblage to order and
made an address in which he felicitated
the members of the graduating class
and wished them prosperity in the life
work that most of them were entering
upon.^
"It makes us of the '80's feel that
we are becoming part of the body of
the elders when we consider that the
world has moved on toward the twen
tieth century," said Mr. Corning, "but
on occasions like this. we go back read
ily enough to the time when we were
leaving the school. We had the hisrh
hopes and the high ideals that you have
and I trust that you will live up to
them. I am very grate-ful for the honor
of addressing so large a class and feel
a pride in our school that I will not
try to express. I give you greeting on
your entrance Into the world and thank
you for your presence here."
The resiponse was made by Herman
David Johnson, '9S. president of the
graduating class, and he briefly thank
ed the alumni and the president of the
body for the cerdiality of the greeting
and the good wishes expressed.
Sup*. A. J. Smith made a few remarks
*h.it were not as set as the programme
portended. He 1 , said ithat the graduat
ing class was o&lculated to reflect honor
on the classes tha-t, had preceded, and
when he said that the class of '98 was
the second lars^s't in the history of the
school the gradtiatagj were by no means
the leaders in;the-'p.pril£i'ise. He felt
that the reputation of the school must
pain by the Kradu&iing class of this
year and their work in th(> world, ancl
j he wished 'Miem! godspeed. He was given
tho applause dije' to a favorite teacher,
tnd the class yell was never more
heartily voiced, than when some one
cl"inanded it for the superintendent who
had been the 4utor of most c-f those
present.
The officers of the Alumni association
v,ere only partially -elected, the balance
of the list being- left for filling by ap
pointment later.
H. B. Martin, 'SO, was elected presi
dent; Helen .Temar, '93, second vice
president; Herman David Johnson, '9S,
third vice present; Mrs. W. L. Ban
ning, 'SS, corresponding secretary, and
P. P. Harbaugh, '89, treasurer, the last
being the only officer re»eleeted. It
was announced that the balance of the
iist of officers wo.uld.be el,wite4 .later.
The: business bems- gotten out of the
way the entertainment portion of the
programme way taken up and Charles
H. Bigelcw, '83, sang a couple of songs
! and sang them very wei; indeed. Miss
! Edith X 3. Hammersley,- '92,. and; Harry
I C Jodson interpreted very- -cleverly a
! bright little , s*ttuhy"""*The Confeder
: atrs."
The Hieh S-chool Dpul4e quartette,
| composed of Messrs. A-ronsahn, Pas
i rage, Brack, Jo:ijjs«>a,' Brodie, Edwards,
I Lfmrnen and Sqtfire?, .gang- a couple of
: sriees end sang- them so well .that their
i friends ?n ihe audience would insist on
i more mu'il they had remlpred an adap
j tation of "Rally 'Round "the Flag," in
■ which they evidenced a d;tsrminatlon
to do something for Cuba Libre. Then
! they positively re.fus?d to sing further,
I and when the applauss finally died
| away President Corning announced
that there would be class meetings dur
ing the intermissions of the dance, for
ihe purpose of mai^fJT a s^ate for the
executive committee, and declared the
exorcises on 'the stage at an end.
Then the seats were cleared away,
lvfrpehmen'ts served ar.d the your.g
people indulged in a dance that went
through ten numbers, with a couple of
extras that ware pleaded for and, of
course, permitted.

Portia, pleading in masculine tones
with Shylock for mercy. In behalf of
Antonio, Interested a large audience in
the hall of tlhe Hill seminary yesterday
afternoon. Ponlia was Edward Craw
| ford, of the College of St. Thomas, in
j disguise, and her remarks about the
j quality of mercy falling like a gentle
dew from heaven were addressed to ]
Thomas McCarthy, who shook his head
and declared in accents similar to
those of the late Edwin Booth, that he
wanted his pound of fiesh from the
luckless Antonio's breast, for it was so
nominated in the bond. He did not re
fer to a popular war loan bond, but to
a promissory note which Antonio had
given to him in exchange for sundry
golden ducats of the coin of Venice.
The play was part of the graduation
exercises cf tihe college class of '98. An
tonio was played by Timcthy Crowley,
Bassanio by John O'Hara, the Doge bj
J. Kavanaug'h, and Jessica by Richard
. McCarthy. The selections were the
prologue to the play and the trial scen^
and the characters were all well acted.
The balance of tlhe programme con
sisted of music and speaking. The St..
Thomas MarrSoiin orchestra played the
overture from the Siren, and then
Joseph Venus delivered the salutatory.
His subjt-ct was the "Higher Educa
tion" and his address was eloquent and
thoughtful. James Sklujacik read stan
za 1, cf canto 6 of Scott's "Last Min
strel," translated into urtrek. An ora
tion in Latin was delivered by Donald
Cameron, and then the mandolin or
chestra rendered Guchert's "Summer
Nights." "Catholics in Science" was the
subject of an oration by Henry Fo
garty, and then followed the prologue
to the "Merchant of Venice." During
an intermission between that and the
trial scene, the mandolin orchestra
played the "Cradle Song." At the con
clusion of the trial seme James E.
J>oy'ie delivered the valedictory address.
He emphasized the necessity of sin
cerity to success in rrfe.
Dr. Heffron conferred diplomas upon
the graduates and this ceremony was
followed by an address by Thomas D.

PURELY A LOCAL STORM.
Yesterday's Dlnturljance Due to a
Clashing of Hls;li and Low AreaH.
The weather conditions yesterday
were peculiar, but they were altogeth
er local and not of sufficient signifi
cance In the meteorological system for
the bureau to take any sort of cog
nizance of them. Said Observer Lyons:
"This condition arrived from the fact
that there was an area of low pres
sure to the northwest of us and a high
pressure to the southeast. These two
conditions met hereabouts, and the
low, forcing its way under the high,
produced the peculiarly humid and
heavy condition of the atmosphere.
The maximum temperature for the
day was 88, and at 7 this morning the
thermometer showed 66. Very shortly
there will be a thunder shower and tho
ttmperature will drop at once and the
air will clear."
The Observer made the prediction at
4:30, .and at 5:10 t/he shower arrived.
BAER WAS SATISFIED.

STILLWATER.
Special to The St. Paul Globe.
STILLWATER, Minn., June 17.— The man
agement of the prison twine factory has con
siderable to contend with at the present
time. Orders for small cash lots are coming
in at the rate of SCO per day, and all manner
of schemes are being worked. A few da>a
ago a large number of young men appeared at
the factory and askod for twine in lots of
from 350 to 500 pounds and claimed they were
farmers residing near Aftcn. this county.
Twine was given to some of them and it
was subsequently ascertained that they were
buying it for a party who was planning to
sell It to Wisconsin farmers at from 12 .to
15 cents per pound. The traffic was discon
tinued immediately and all purchasers of
twine are now compelled to show proof that
they will not carry the twine Into Wisconsin.
Joseph Zimmerman, of Guttenburg, 10., and
Joseph Ott, of Dubuque, are among the

GREAT GOLF PLAYING.
Youthful Willie Anderson Leads in
Open Championship Games.
HAMILTON, Mass.. June 17.— The third
open golf championship of the United States
Golf association, and, from a professional
standpoint, the leading golf event of tho
year, was begun today on the links of the
Myopia Hunt club.
Play ended tonight with Willie Anderson,
the nineteen-year-old professional of the Bul
tusrol club, Short Hills. N. J., in the lead.
His margin, however, Is narrow, for Alex
ander Smith, of the Washington Park club,
Chicago, is but one stroke behind him,
while H. C. Leeds, the Myopia amateur, is
only two strokes off. The others who are
also dangerous are Joe Lloyd, the present
champion, and John Jones, the Myopia pro
fessional. The play today was undoubtedly
the best ever seen in this country.
M'Dt'FFIE CHAMPION CYCLIST.
Taylor totally Defeated and World's
Previous Records Smn.-ilietl.
BOSTON, June 17.— World's bicycle records
once again went by the board from the ninth I
to the thirteenth mile to-day when Eddio |
McDuftle easily defeated Major Taylor, of !
Brooklyn, at the Charles River park in a I
paced thirty-mile race. From the start tp
about the fifteenth mile it was a hot event,
but after that time Taylor did not show up
well against the great work of McDuffie, |
*but nevertheless the gam'ey colored lad broke j
nearly all his own records for many of the !
short distances.
Both men got good starts and McDuffie's
first mile in 1:51 4.fi showed him only a little j
in the lead. The pacing talent was good and
McDuffie was superb in his pickups. Taylor
had not the speed at times to keep pace. The
defeated man. however, was game to the last. ;
McDufiie's miles after the sixteenth were at a i
1:58 clip. McDuffie's time for each mile
from nine to thirty was as fellows:
