FrtdIt Morning, March 17, 1899. THE MISSION OF AMERICA. .Since the greed for empire and the hunger for spoils has -seized the ad vocates of expansion in this country we hear much about the "mission of America," the sum and substance of which Is to carry civilization and progress to the benighted, where our flag may have been temporarily planted, and to lift them np whether they want to be lifted up pr not,yol I untarily if the will, forcibly if they will not. Kipling, writing like an Englishman to Americans, has en- joined us in spirited verse to "take jupjthe white man's burden," and we have had that same thing run on different keys from pulpit, rostrum and sanctum, day after day. i The) preacher who believes in1 ex pansion and whose conscience justi- fies1 the rape of territory on the plea that "the end justifies the means," exclaims that it is the mission ff this country to carry . Christianity as well as liberty to the people whom those preachers be lieve io be in a deplorable state of ( heathen-darkness. The expansion ist orator, who views the question, from a less religious standpoint, de clared from the rostrum that it is .the mission of this country to carry the light of modern civilization to thpse people and force them to ac cept the civilization which we pfEer whether they like it or not, aha the voice comes out from the editorial sanctum where expansion editors write, substantially 'reiterating all the 'preachers and the rostrum " orators proclaim. I j In our opinion the mission of this country is to mind its own business in the old fashioned way, to 'attend, to matters at home and to studiously avoid poaching upon the domain of other nations or becoming mixed up with! them in any way. The father among the fathers, the one dis tinguished enough to be called "The Father of His Country" in his fare- I well address warned his countrymen against entangling alliances; which, of course, meant to avoid the con ditions which might lead to compli cations which might necessitate en tangling alliances Havetft we seen -r indications already of these entang ling alliances against which Wash yington impressively warned us? Whjt does all this' talk about kin i ship between Americans . and Britons, and these frequent expres sions - on both sides of the ocean iavonng an alliance between this .country and England, mean? Not content with this there are those who think of and favor a triple al--liance America, Great Britain and J apan. Here is a double entangle ment, which would never have been thought Of 11 it harl Tint. Kaon m. 4-T.i t ..,'. : war with Spam, and the territory grabbing spirit which the war begat and stimulated. The fathers had their conception of ( America's mission which was confined to the Northern part of this hemisphere. They never contem plated going out, hunting up the brdwnNman and the yellow" man. planting the flag over him and pro- . uuvvuug m uiYiiiifiB mm wnetner he be willing or n&t. With them 'the white man's burden,", the Ameri can's burden, was to build up his own country, to labor for the better ment of his own people, to take good care of the Eepublic and see that it suffered no injury from ene- pies at home or abroad. That's what the Fathers thought the mission of this, country was, and what their sons thought until the expansion craze seized some of them and un balanced them. . - Sixty-eight years ago one of the Fathers, John Quincey Adams, de livered a Fourth of July oration in ne city 01 Washington on "The Mission of America," from which the Atlanta Journal makes the fol lowing extract: .. ,; : ' "She America) : has abstained from interference in the concern of others, even when "the conflict has been for principles to which she clings, as to the last vital drop that visits the heart. She . has seen that, probably for cen turies to come, all the contests of that Aceldama, the European world. will be contests between inveterate , power and emerging . fight. Wherever the standard of freedom and independence has been or shall be unfurled there will her heart, her benedictions and her d ravers be.- But she jroes not abroad in search of monsters to de stroy. - She is the well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all. She is the champion and vindicator only of her own. t She will recommend the general cause by the countenance of ner voice and the benignant sympathy of her example., She well knows that, by once enlisting:' under other banners than her own' were they even - the banners of foreign inde pendence, she would involve herself, beyond the power of extrication in all the wars of interest and intrigue, of in dividual avarice, envy and ambition, which assume the color and usurb the standard of freedom. The fundamen tal maxims of -ner policy would insen sibly change from liberty to force. The frontlet upon her brows would no longer ueam wita tue lutnaoio splen dor of freedom and independence; but in its stead -would soon be substituted an imperial diadem, flashing in false and .tarnished lustre, the murky radiance of dominion and power. She might become the dictatress of the world; she would no longer be the ruler of her own spirit." .' This reiterates in other phrase what the . other father enjoined when he said "bewareof-entangling alliances' which may b a very easy to get into, but very hard to get out of, and theend of which no . man can see. ' There are, it is true, a good many men to-day who, carried away 'by the expansion mania, close their ears to all the sober counsels of the 1 I 1 past, ana rusn into territorial ag grandizement regardless of conse quences, and reckon little as to the dangers there may be ahead. Thej are not caring for that, but swayed by paBsion, by lust of empire, are morally and physically blind tothe consequences that may follow this lust of empire. We have begun to reap some of these consequences al ready. Having closed one. war we have entered upon another, which has already cost us-many millions of dollars, has costus the lives of a good many soldiers, and will cost us thousands more, and then, if suc- successful, we aequlro domain over distant territory where our author ity must, be maintained with the bayonet, and when in the event of complications with rivaL. nations, entangling alliances" will become a certainty, The fathers knewifhat they built for better than their grasping, demoralized sons. T . FIGHTING THE OIL TRUST. The Attorney General of Ohio has forborne time been fighting the Standard Oil Company and tiding to bring it within the pale of the law of that State. Whether he is making any progress or not we do not know, but he is throwing con siderable light on the monopoly that institution has. and hiw it is coining money out of that monopV oly. Comnrenting upon the efforts the Attorney General is rSaking and tlie allegation that he was offered a bribe of $500,000 to stop proceed ings, the New YorltrJoiirnal says: - Attornev General MonnAtt )iavo from official figures that the unifnrm cost of oil per barrel to the Standard uii uompany is twenty cents, and that in three "years the raw ."material cost them $9,747,247. With all mm. petitors driven from the field this oil was sjold at retail for $389,889,900, a sum two and half times greater than the value of all the wool, cattle, sheep, hogs, corn and oats produced in Ohio during the same period. :-- Before the millions of thiseemAnwC ss monopoly the courts hav tttnnH powerless. Legislatures" have become corrupted- and officials have grown careless. Its officers refuse to bring tucu- uwss into courts or to testify as to their contents, on the ground that they would incriminate themselves if they did. Driven to the kst wall, they burn the documents demanded h-ir th court, and through their attorneys de fiantly ask: 'What are vou cm" no- to do (-about it?' ;. "Attorney General Monnett has re- lusen a bribe of $500,000- from, the oil monopolists. '; He contends that there is abundant law in Ohio to wipe them "Ms iace or me eartn,' and in his herculean task this honest and faithful servant of the people has the support of good citizens everywhere1 We do not suppose that the Stand ard Oil Trust is any worse jihan any, oth'er Trust which has an absolute monopoly. It differs from others, perhaps, in the fact that its product costs it less, and with its immense sales, its profits are enormous. It may and does sell oil pretty cheap, but who would say that if had not the momvrinlv ir. Vioo a-nA it v. : j. xt . v ,., . . ".uo-Tw.;jueei, me competition of some other strong company, which could command the crude oil at as low a figure as it does ' thatit wouldn't sell Oil cheaper? It could sell at half the price it does and yet make an enormous profit out of a material that nature supplies in abundance, the cost of drawing which from the earth is merely nominal. ' ' . ' &EDTJCTI0N IN COTTON ACEE- :,; AGE. ; It is thought that tnre will be a material reduction in the cotton acreage, of South Carolina and Geor gia this year. Opinion I in South Carolina is based on the reduced re ceipts from- the inspector of fertili zers, compared with: last year, the receipts so far this year being only $34,583, against $50,162 last year and $44,583 the year before. v Last year the total receipts amounted to $60,000, hut will' not amount to more than $40,000 this year, a de crease of one-third. : There may not be a corresponding aecrease m the - acreage of cotton, but this reduction in the demand for fertilizers indicates a considerable reduction in the cotton acreage. It is also said that there will also be a considerable decrease in Georgia and that the that the farmers in both of these States are giving more atten tion to the growing of other .crops If the same could be said pf all the ootton States it would ba a cause for. congratulation, for.; then the cottou crop might be brought somewhere within the paying limit. . - But it is interesting to learn, whether the reduction in cotton acreage will be material or "no V that many of ear farmers", are increasing their effortsHo raise their home sup plies, - and -are giving ; much . more thought and attention to diversified farming, for to this they must come before they can count with any cer tainty on .the cotton crop. But that they are making ; fair progress - in this .direction is shown'by the steady increase for several yearsn the pro duction of grain crops, grass,: fruit; &c, and the increased yield of grain per acre, showing improved methods of cultivation and improved soil, proof that' while cotton may still be the leading crop, it is not monopo lizing attention as it once did. S.0TH0 WILL NOT CONTEST. ,Theseare days for . the ousted to contest and hang on if they can. -It was reported Borne time ago that S, All.- TTT'l i. . - jvno vviisou s resignation naa a string to it, and that he had, through counsel, filed notice of his intention to enter suit to hold his place as railroad commissioner. But if so he has changed his mind, as we gather from the following from the Raleigh Post, which by author ity states his position! v "Mr. S. Otho Wilson was in the city Sunday, returning to his - farm in the evening of that day. - "His absence from Raleigh at the time Attorney Harris made -the formal protest' before the Railroad Commis sion, as explained in these columns a week ago. afforded an oPDOrtunitv to those who were disposed to do so to misconstrue that action: or formality on the part of his attorney, although the latter stated that he took the step without the knowledge of Mr. Wilson. The Post . printed the oninion of others as expressed by Mr. Harris him self and the other attorney of Mr. Wilson, R. H. Battle, Esq., and by other gentlemen familiar; with the case and Mr. Wilson's attitude and intentions, and added its own opinion to the effect that there was probably no purpose on the part of .Mr. Wilson to 'withdraw' his resignation or to take any initial step looking to a con test of the position now held by his successor, Mr. Rogers. - -. After having seen and talked wi in Mr. Wilson this opinion is now re peated as a warranted statement If ever S- Otho Wilson i makes another effort to fill the position of a Railroad Commissioner, it will only be the re sult of an attempt of the Governor to appoint some one fo succeed Mr. Rogers, through some imaginery and highly improbable-contingency which Mr. Wilson regards as a remote nossi- ality. tie will not enter the courts-himself nor employ a lawver to test Mr. Rogers' right to the position - he holds.

The first thine to do is to secure some good, sweet cider (apple cider )f and boil, it half away This should be done the day before yoo "expect to: begin: with the" apples, I use a porcelain-- lined' kettle ' that holds five gallojas...Boil it' half; aWjay and let it remain in the kettle overnight on the back of the stove. -The advantage of this is it ia Warm and will begin cooking earlier. As soon as possi- ble the . next momins I besrin ami pre pare the apples as for Sauce and put in- to the cider all it will hold. JTill thepo full to4he top, and as it cooks soft keep putting in more apples to . keep the ket tle full, untile it is quite : thiok and let pook slowly, and stir very of ten, as it will burn very readily if it is over too hot a firo.. It needs to be oooked a long time. ' . I never finish mine in one day ; simply move it back on the stove where ' it will not cook, but keep warm oversight.- When it is done, it will be oooked ; away considerably, and thiok; and- dark , lixe a jam or marmaiaae. uo not sweet en until, nearly done, as it burns more quickryrTmd by cooking away as it does Jtnight be too sweet.: Use white sugar and sweeten to taste. I use nospioes, as I consider they spoil the flavor of the cider ' and apples. If they are used, they should be of the veryjiest and carefully added. This recipe keeps perfectly without be- mg put up airtight. I put it m stone jars and tie a cloth over it merely to keep put dust. Practical Farmer. " An Old Dog-. " : i -I It is interesting, to study "the eooen-" 'trioitiesof animals. -Their freaks and. fancies seem to make them' almost hu man. -A. dear old collie who .has been indulged in allsorts of ridiculous whims has recently taken upon himself to re sent the habit of "his master and mis-, tress in sitting up- lata When the dog considers that .it is bedtime, he becomes restless and wanders about the room, looking ruefully at the offenders as much as to say,- "Aren't you ever going to tak your departure up stairs?" When he becomes convinced that his mute ap peals are unheeded, he walks slowly to his accustomed corner and with a deep i grunt of dissatisfaction settles himself 'ostensibly for the night. The funniest : part of this performance is that he never : spends the night in that corner, but the moment the lights are out- and he feels sure of hot being driven down stairs where he belongs he takes up his quar ters at the top of the stairs leading to his master's bedroomr . This same deg has : as keen an appreciation of good cake as any human epioure. The wag of his tail when pound cake is given to him and the refusal of that tail to wag when sponge cage is offered tell 4w story as plainly as words. Brooklyn Eagle. - .
