The frartitioh of Africa. yew York Tim8. . Mr. Chamberlain, becoming weary of the absurd pretense that it .was necessary to send a new expedition to the Soudan to defeud the settlements from the dervishes, let the "imperial" cat out of the diplomatic bag. The fact that the British Qbvern hns determined to send a new ei- ration into the Soudan points, not only to an indefinitely prolonged occupation of Egypt; hut to an understanding sausrac tory to Great Britain that she shal&iot be meddled with in holding Egypt' and as much contiguous territory as she may Aeem necessary, no matter, what may be thought about it at Paris or St. Petersburg) In other words, the Triple Alliance must have become in fact, if not in form, Onadruple Alliance. They are v pry large projects that are thus adumbrated. The 'great work of the next century, it is already plain, is the 1 conquest of Africa by modern civilization There is not a Foreign1 Office in Europe in which this is not recognized. There is not a Foreign Office in Europe in which the main purpose, over and above the inime diale purpose and the hand-to-mouth policy of keeping the peace in Europe,1 is not to get tor me nation lis ran snare, which means as much as it can possibly secure, of the proceeds. This is why we see France cAvorting in Madagascar and Italy in Aoyssmia, ana mis ( 13 wny , we now see England, or rather " adventurous and unauthorized Englishmen, pushing northward from Cape Colony, and England herself preparing to push southward from Egypt. The politics of Europe during the seven teenth and eighteenth .centuries turned upon the partition of America, and we all know now that turned out. North America became English and South America Spanish. While England is still a great, indeed the second, power in this hemis phere, Spain has lost all of her possessions but one, and that one, which she has alie nated like the rest by frantic misgbvern ment, she is now making, frantic efforts to keep by force of arms. There is no power which occupies as to Africa the ' position which Spain held as to America when the struggle began which ended in the ex pulsion of Spain as a political power from the mainland. The power which starts with the greatest advantages for the possession of Africa is, of course. Great Britain, as the first of the trading, nations, the first without a second and; ' without a rival. No other nation approaches' her in the qualtiesT which make "merchant ad venturers" and which make successful col onists. Such foreign trade as 'Africa al ready has is as preponderantly British" as the foreign, trade of Asia. This is an im menseand will doubtless ' prove to be a decisive advantage in the struggle . It is an advantage that political combinations can only temporarily neutralize. If we had not hampered ourselves by our com : mercial legislation, we might compete with Great Britain for the tradt of iBe new Asia, if not of the New Africa. But &u ,llfirs are lt seems tflat the action' of the British Government is in the direction of manifest destiny, and that a century hence as great a part of Africa as of America will have fallen to the English speaking race. It does not, however, fol low that iu the one case more than in the other it wili appear on the map as "British possessions." Two Opinions on the Ohio Mony Flank.

Their policy is one of evasion and trickery. They are plainly opposed to free silver coinage, but they do no flatly say so.

Here ate some of the reasons why it is sate. 10 preaici inai winiam Mckinley win be nominated for President by the Re publican convention at St. Louis: Because he is the only National candidate, the only J1Z JX . -- A?

Because be is a Western candidate and has behind him the enormous sectional pressure of Western sentiment, without the aid of which no Kepublican has ever been elected President. Because last, but not least, the very fact that Mr. McKinley is ODDosed by the two most powerful bosses in the East, Piatt and Quay, and the two most odious, despotic political machines, is bound to create a reaction in his favor: bound to give mm tne sympathy ot the masses, who hate bosses; bound to help him iu the end. In the popular imagination Mr. Cleveland is as thoroughly identified with the idea of tariff reform asrMr.' McKinley is with that of protection. If Kepubhcan protection sentiment compels the nomination of Mc Kinley in spite of the bosses and leaders, what more natural than the logic of action and reaction that Democratic tariff-re form sentiment should endeavor to force upon the Democratic Convention the can didate who four years ago upon the same issue won so gloriously tow -coil waKT4eJ The same expense and4$bgrThat will poor seeds will plant and cultivate Peter Henderson's Seeds WHICH NEVER DISAPPOINT.
