A WORLD WIDE WAR-'
A few. day 8 ao we quoted some
extracts from the speech delivered
by Senator Beveridge in the city of
-DesMoines, Iowa, on Gen. Grant's
birthday. It was an expansion
speech and in some respects a no
table one. .The following is one of
the extracts:
. "American industrial evolutioa and
American international relations are
interwoven. And our international
relations demand the exercise by the
American government of that power
of the free hand developed in our
treatment of the Philippine and Cuban
questions. We are literally engaged
in a world-wide .war of commerce.
Other nations will erect are erecting
tariffs against American products.
Free trade England will not much
longer remain free trade. Within
twenty five years every manufactured
article entering English ports will pay
a heavy "duty unless by reciprocal
tariff arrangements we keep Great
Britain's markets open to our products.
The same is true of every other Euro
pean nation and this policy of self
preservation will be applied to their
colonies also. It follows, therefore,
that the American tariff must meet
these new conditions. But our tariff
will be made to meet these new con
ditions along the lines of international
reciprocity."
Senator Beveridge anticipates the
time when European nations will
not only fight us with our own
weapons that is, by adopting the
protective (which means the pro
hibitive) tariff system where they
have not already done so, but when
there will be an international boy
cott of American products in as far
as that is practicable. If there be
lin the protective tariff the virtue
that is claimed for it, it will so
stimulate industries that the na
tions which adopt it will become
self-supplying and self-sustaining,
and will have no longer need of
. American products, save, perhaps,
some food stuffs to meet . their
necessities in short crop years.
What are we to do then? His
remedy is to reach out for the mar
kets of the Orient. As a necessary
preliminary, he says, to gaining and
holding a foothold in China we
must make our foothold secure and
establish our supremacy over the
Philippine archipelago. With
Europe cut off, where our best
markets now are, we must look to
the East and to the Chinese em
pire to find sale for our sur
plus products. That is precise
ly what we are doing now,
and this is precisely what England,
Germany, Russia, France and Japan
are doing, and have been doing for
some years. That's what all this
talk about the "open door" means.
They all want the open door when
they can't control the door them-
I selves. There isn't a leading nation
in Europe to-day that is not exploit
ing China, not one that hasn't its
eye upon some territory which it
will seek, .if., it has not already ob
tained concessions, as a sphere of
kTfluence, which means a base from
which to build up and extend its
trade in that country. Several of
them have concessions now; Eng
land, Germany, Russia and France
have, and every one of them is plan
ning to make additions to these con
cessions, and they will probably uti
lize their portion of the money in
demnity demanded of China to carry
out their schemes.
With the Enropean "spheres of
influence" enlarged and the pressure
the European nations will be able to
bring to bear upon China, how long
will it be before the freeze out game
may be played upon us there as it is
proposed to be played in Europe?
We may in the meantime largely in
crease our trade with China, but
when that is done it will amount to
very little compared with our trade
with some of the European nations.
What we sell them will be princi
pally cotton goods of the coarsest
and cheapest qualities. Wages are
too low in that country, and there
are too many poor people in pro
portion to the population to make
good customers. Both in their
wearing and eating the cheapest and
the " best answer the masses, who
cannot afford to buy anything else.
Both the clothing and the food of
the rich and well-to-do are home
productions. And then again we
will not have a free field in
that empire, for we will be met
there by European competition,
and by nations which will have
the advantage of us 'in having
a foothold on Chinese terri
tory, which, they call their "spheres
of influence" every one of which has
a seaport in which their vessels may
ride at anchor. We have no con
cessions, no sphere of influence, nor
seaport, bo that our only dependence
in this commercial war will be the
"open door," which may be elosed
at any time. There are too many
dogs after one bone and as big as it
is there isn't enough in it for all of
them. Divided, to fight for a piece
would cost more than it would be
worth. We can't afford to do that
even if we were disposed to do it.
What,then,8hould be done? Even
under the best circumstances we
could not depend upon the trade of
the Orient? One year of British
trade would be worth a half dozen
or more of the Chinese. Should
we pursue a course that .will drive
the European nylons, into a com
meroial war against us, or anticipate
v tnat- and take wise action to
prevent it?, . We W Kan
legislating to keep them out
of our markets, to prevent them
from becoming sellers to us, but
buyers only. The purpose and ef
fect of tne protective system was. to'
buy little from them, but to sell
them all we could. That was busi
ness, but carried to an extreme it
was a too one-sided and a dangerous
business, resulting in antagonism
and retaliation. The organization
of Trusts, which was the logical
result of this protective system, has
intensified the antagonism and the
disposition to retaliate.
This was the beginning of the
"world-wide war of commerce," to
which Senator. Beveridge refers. It
is only a question of time when the
preservation of our commerce will
compel us to open our ports toother
nations if we would have other na
tions keep their ports open to us.
Even Republicans like Senator Bev
eridge,! Congressman Babcock and
others j realize this and admit it.
Why then not do it now and disarm,
as far as may yet be done, this com
mercial antagonism and checkmate
this international alliance against
American products, and then when
that is done turn our attention to
new fields and extend our trade
there?; There are south of us a
hundred millions of people who
would become good customers if we
catered to ttreir wants and gave them
as good terms as European traders
do. And here, especially if we had
an isthmian canal to shorten the
distance to them, we would have
immense advantages over our Euro
pean competitors. "The world
wide commercial war" upon which
we hare entered makes a change of
conditions and of tactics a necessity
unless we will go handicapped into
it and come out worsted.
Senator Beveridge sees this;
whether he wilr have the sagacity
and courage to act upon it as a Sen
ator remains to be seen.
THREE THINGS NECESSARY.
In his reply to the greetings of
the professors and students of the
colored university at New Orleans,
Thursday, Mr. McKinley didn't in
dulge in any taffy. He made a brief
speech, and as sensible as brief. He
told them that the three things
they needed were education, charac
ter and industry. With these they
could j succeed anywhere. Without
these, at least the two latter, he
might have added, they could not
succeed anywhere. With good
character and industry they can
succeed without education; with
education, without good character
and industry, they are worse than
failures. This is one of the things
that Booker Washington labors to
impress upon his race.
There is nota. negro yi the South
who has thesetwo requisites who
will not have friends to help him,
and who will not have as fair a
showing in the struggle of life as
any one who has to toil for a liveli
hood. ;
In this respect he stands a better
chance in the South than in the
North, for here there are more ave
nues of employment open to him,
and there is more toleration for him
than1 there is in the North, where
when he enters the labor field he is
looked upon as a competitor, an in
terloper and an enemy by white
workmen. It is not so in the South,
where negroes are found working at
many callings, and with white men
without the slightest friction, and
this without the white man com
promising himself or the negro as
suming any equality on that ac
count. The races understand each
other and act accordingly.
When the negroes catch on to the
fact that character and industry are
what they have to bank on, cease
thinking about politics and brood
ing over the distinctions between
the raceftthey will -begin to climb,
and the higher they climb thefiearer
they will get to the soluticA of the
race problem. m
Tom Johnson, Mayorf of Cleve
land, Ohio, has a daughter and she
did what Mark Hanna failed to do
in the late municipal election. She
beat him, beat him out of a daisy
automobile. He wouldn't buy her
a bow-wow and she offered to com
promise on an automobile and
thought he ought to comp. . He told
her that a girl who couldn't navi
gate an auto had no use for one
and that when she acquired the art
of navigating one he would buy her
the best one in the market. The
other day he was standing at his
door and noticed a young.,, lady
scooting towards the house at a
two-forty gait. " When she arrived
she brought the thing to a sudden
standstill, jumped off and asked
him how he liked her style .of .navi
gating an automobile. He surren
dered and she now has a daisy.
The Supreme Court of New, York
has decided that under the common
law a husband in that State is en
titled to the earnings of his wife.
There are some things in the. com
mon law that ought to be shelved by
common consent. Under the com
mon law a husband, has a right to
wallop his wife, provided he doesn't
use a stick ,big enough to break
bones. ' 'l . . -. "" .
' A United . States judge in New
York recognizes that, lawyers have
privileges , in' looking' after their
clients, but draws the.; line on a
lawyer aiding his client to escape
from jail. , ,
ACROSS THE BORDER.
We hear much these days about
the great prosperity olthis country.
Mr. McKinley frequently calls at
tention to it in his speeches. But
the Republicans all, from Mr. Mc
Kinley down, assume that this pros
perity is the result of Republican
policies and Republican statesman
ship, oblivious of the fact that there
was a revival of prosperty the world
over succeeding the depression of
several years ago. It began with us
with the large demand and high
prices for food stuffs in consequence
of crop failures in Enropean coun
tries. This brought money into
the country which money went into
circulation and started tb wheels
of the manufacturing industries to
humming. Republican policies and
statesmanship had no more to with
that than that they had with the
building of the trans-Siberian rail
road and the rapid populating and
development of Southern Siberia
But we have an lustration right
across the border, against which to
protect ourselves Senator Hanna
says the protective tariff policy
must be maintained. For the past
ten years Canada has made remark
able progress, and has enjoyed
great prosperity The population
has increased nearly two mil
lions, and the percentage of in
crease has been larger than
ours, 23 to 21. She has within
that time completed the Canadian
Pacifio and many other lines, giving
her more railroad mileage than any
other country in the world in pro
portion to population. The Pacifio
road has opened a vast agricultural
and pastoral area which is destined
to take a prominent part in furnish
ing the food supplies of the world.
With this numerous industries
have been established and are flour
ishing, while the steel making in
dustry promises to become a formi
dable competitor of that industry in
this country, so much so that Mark
Hanna declares that the tariff duties
must be continued to prevent the
Canadians from dumping their steel
in New England. And yet Canada
has not had the benefit of Republi
can policies nor the directing wis
dom of Republican statesmanship.
THE SPECULATIVE CRAZE.
As an illustration of the specula
tive craze in Wall street a seat in the
Stock Exchange is said to have sold
for $70,000 Thursday, $4,000 more
than the record-breaker a few days
ago, when $66,000 was paid for a
seat. Wednesday was a record
breaking day, too, for sales, and for ex
traordinary prices. Conservative and
thoughtful dealers look upon these
transactions pith amazement and ap
prehension, and regard them as the
preceders of an inevitable crash that
will bring ruin to thousands. A
few days ago Russell Sage raised a
warning voice against this mad,
head-long rush and repeated it again
a couple days ago, when he said to a
reporter of the Associated Press:
' The public has become strangely
speculative mad. It ia unprecedented
in the stock markrt. There is nothing
to warrant this remarkable inflation of
stocks.
"Another 'Black. Friday' is impend
ing. It will be the worst our financial
world has ever known. . Any one who
knows the value of stocks, and studies
the prices at which they are selling to
day. cannot fail to realize this.
"When the drop sets in and the pub
lie have had their fill, the conse
quences will be fearful. It may mean
ruin to thousands. I do not think this
is very far away, either. There is no
reason for this remarkable advance in
stocks."
The boys who manipulate the
stocks will not give much heed to
this, for they have the craze bad
and it will take something more
than Sage advice to cure them, and
bring them down to a common sense
basis, but the adyice isn't intended,
perhaps, so much for them as for
the lambs that may be fleeced.
The result generally of such crazes
is that a few sharpers, who put up
the cards and do the dealing make
millions and their confiding dupes
are ruined. If the damage were
confined to Wall street and the peo
ple that play in it it wouldn't be so
bad, but when the collapse comes
and they go down the whole coun
try suffers.

COTTON MARKETS.
By Telegraph to the Morning Star.
New York, May 3. Cotton closed
to day to nearly the level reached in
.March, July selling off to 7.78 and tbe
other near months proportionately.
Sentiment was radically bearish and
aside from occasional flurries of profit
taking by the pit contingent, the
market was not supported throughout
the session. Tbe opening was easy
with prices two to three points lower,
in sympathy with a serious break in
Liverpool. Selling orders from
abroad led to selling for both accounts
by local interests soon after tbe open
ing, under which prices slowly
worked lower. Estimates for an "in
sight" this week of 115,000 bales
or nearly doubsl the amount reported
for the same week last year, proved to
be the chief factor in effecting lower
markets here and abroad. In addition
to the above figures shorts were en
couraged by large receipts at all ports,
splendid weather in the central and
eastern belts, a forecast for rains in
the Southwest, easier spot markets
South and predictions for an increased
moyement. By midday a net decline
of six and eleven points was appar
ent. Early in the afternoon official
estimates for continued large receipts,
.with an "in sight" report of 114,000
bales led to renewed selling for both
aecounts. There was little recupera
tive energy manifested later in the
session, though light spurts' of
buying for profits by the scalping con
tingent served to stiffen prices a point
or two. Market closed neryous but
steady with prices net two to thirteen
points lower.
