COLONEL STONE'S PLATFORM.
It aOII be my juupofo when elected to
bo conduct myself us to win the respect
nd pood will of thn.o who have opt'owed
mo as well as thosn who have given mo
their support. I thall be the governor
of thu vhnlo peopb of tho state. AbusM
have undoiilitoilly crown up Jn the legls
laturo whit h aro neither the fiiult ol ono
party nor the other, but rather tho
Krowth of custom. I'micccsFary Invcstl
Katlons have been authorized by commit
tees, rcsultlr ff In unncccsb.iry expense to
the stair. It will be inv care and pur
pose to correct these and other evils In so
far as I have tho power. It will be my
purpose white coventor of I'eniihyUrtiila.
ns It has bocn my purpose In tho public
positions that I have bold, with God's
help, to discharge my wholo duty. The
people arc cirater than the parties o
which they belong. 1 am only Jealous of
their favor. I shall only attempt to win
their approval and my experience has
taught me that that can test be done by
an Ijoncst, modest, dally discharge, of
public duty.
Cubans In this country who want to
return to Cuba but have not the means
of transportation are, when properly
certified, to be given free passage on
American transports. Actions even
better than words ought to convince
the Cubans of the disinterested char
acter of this government's Intentions
respecting their Island.
In Wayne County.
If reports reaching us are correct
pome of the citizens of "Wayne county,
hitherto Republicans, who now sub
scribe to Wanamakerlsm are not going
to vote for the legislative nominees of
N the Wayne Republican convention al-
v " though they mado no effort In this
convention to nominate candidates of
their own. This, If true, amounts to a
total relinquishment of party allegi
ance and gives corresponding encour
agement to the Democracy.
If it could bo said with truth that
this kind of defection made no differ
ence we should not refer to it; but the
fact Is that both In this fall election
and In the presidential campaign two
yean, hence tho Republican party can
ill afford to spare any voter who, how
ever much he may be displeased with
local party matters. Is upon broad na
tional issues in full sympathy with the
WcKlnley administration. There would
be a, show of excuse for local defections
If those who threaten them had enter
ed the party primaries and the party
oonventions and been beaten unfairly.
Rut wnero open primaries are held and
a minority so fairly defeated In the se
lection ot party nominees that they
waived the right of entering names In
the convention, there Is left faint basis
for such action us is reported to be
contemplated In Wayne. The right of
every citizen to vote ns ho pleases is
unquestionable; but It Is legitimate to
ask whether a disruption at this time
of Republicanism In Pennsylvania
would not be fo'loweil by greater evils
than can possibly be remedied by guer
rilla politics.
Messrs. Wood and Norton, who have
been nominated for the legislature by
the Republicans of Wayne, are worthy
men of established character and con
ceded ability. They merit election and
deserve the btipport of each Republi
can voter In that county. If common
sense rules they will win handsomely
and it is time for the sensible citizens
of Wayne to take thought ot these
matters and pull themselves together.
Suspense over the whereabouts of
Mr. Garman of the State Democratic
committee should bo relieved by carrier
pigeons or otherwise.
A Contrast.
Seth Low's views of Independent
political movements in times like these,
when a national administration after
successfully conducting a most glor
ious war Is attacked from the rear by
tho jealous Democracy who, as of yore,
declare the war a fatluro and scheme
to rob the president of power to exe
cute his plans of settlement and recon
btructlcn, will be shared by every we'l
balanced American. Such movements
are more than "unprofitable and un
reasonable"; they are dangerous to the
public welfare and need everywhere to
be Insistently repressed. They threaten
obstruction to our national destiny and
needless-sacrifice of the prestige of the
government among the nations; and
all this simply to confer nototiety upon
a few dlssatUilcd would-be leaders
whose only chance to lead Is by estab
lishing parties of their own.
We have such a movement In Penn
sylvania In the ambitious person of
Hon. John Wnnamaker, the real
backer of the Swallow enterprise, who
has reached out with money and flat
tery for every element In the common
wealth's population that could be in
veigled Into a fusion campaign having
for Its purpose the overthrow of tho
Republican Tarty and the erection of a
mercantile dynasty on Us ruins. Mr.
Wanamaker professes to bo a loyal Re
publican and onco received cabinet
honors In gift from a Republican pres
ident. Protesting fidelity to Republl-
can principles, he recently entered his
natno ns a candidate, for United States
senator In a contest In which, though
ho had every udvnntage In flnanclul
rcsoutcex, he was beaten almost 2 to 1;
and again, with renewed assurance of
party fuithfulners he allowed his natno
to go before the people nn it candidate
for the Republican nomination for
governor; yet no sooner had tho party
in orderly process expressed Its pre
ference for another tha'n the insatiable
umbltion of this man was at work
leaguing together the elements of n re
volt against Republican supremacy
and furnishing tho sinews of a war of
revenge.
The danger in such vindictive guer
rilla politics as this Is not h direct one,
for these sporadic Insurrectlonr. ot the
disappointed possess no permanent
bonds of strength. The danger arises
In tho confusion which they temporari
ly create, under cover of which n
watchful enemy Is seeking (o steal un
observed Into power. This Is the men
ace to the situation nt present obtain
ing in Pennsylvania, where both n
senator and congressmen tin to bo
elected this winter. Tho fusing of
Wnnamakerltes, Hwallowltes and
Democrats on legislative tickets, with
the Democrats uppermost, is n direct
Incentive to the carrying of this guer
rilla principle Into the various con
gressional campaigns, with the proba
ble result of h loss of votes In congress
to the Republican administration at
Washington. Under these circum
stances It la somewhat surprising to
see the paper of Pennsylvania'!! repre
sentative In the cabinet appearing ns
the organ of the Wnnamakcr move
ment and using Its columns dully for
the purpose of confusing tho Republi
can situation In this Instance we no
tice n sharp contrast SJetwron the at
titude ot foEtmastcr General Charles
Emory Smith, hitherto presumed to be
it thorough-going and consistent Re
publican, and Hon, Selh Low, a reput
ed Mugwump, owing no special fidelity
to the Republican party, yet condemn
ing roundly tho very type of insurrec
tionary politics for which Mr. Smith's
newspaper stands ns the Industrious
exponent and apologist.
So long ns Hawaii Is deprived of
statehood she will escape the campaign
liar.
m
Our New Responsibilities.
The Washington Post, unlike some
American papers, does not lose Its
temper because certain foreign mili
tary officers nnd correspondents are
giving us advice as to the best methods
of getting along with the natives at
Manila. On the contrary, It recognizes
that these proffers or Information nro
In the main well-Intended; that they
come from persons who have had much
moro experience than we have had In
dealing with Oriental populations, and
that much which they say in friendly
suggestion is worth taking to mind.
"It should be understood at the out
set," tho Post continues, "that if we
are to rule the Philippines and no man
has yet pointed out how we can escape
It Manila Is not the proper place for
prairie politicians or broken-down
ward heelers whoso health requires a
sojourn abroad at the public expense.
It would be cheaper in the long run to
pension such people than to settle tho
trouble they would surely raise In our
Oriental archipelago. Our political
missionaries must be as wise as ser
pents, yet gentle as doves, and every
such man will be worth a regiment of
soldiers in dealing with the Filipinos."
It should be added that our contem
porary's terse words apply fully as
forcefully to Porto Rico and CUba,
whero the problem of handling deli
cately and with small friction people
of a different race and accustomed to
judging all things by standards differ
ent from our own Is to be a very diill
cult one unless we use diplomacy and
finesse much more frequently than
force. As a result of acquiring colo
nies American public opinion, which
urged this course, must now educate
Itself and thereby the government up
to the point whore tho country's best
ability and highest quality ot state
craft can not only be employed In the
first steps toward adjusting our new
responsibilities, but also In tho subse
quent steps:, continuously from one ad
ministration to another regardless of
tho mutations of purely domestic par
ty politics. Otherwise It accords with
reason that our colonial system Involv
ing the tutelage of peoples wholly dis
similar In many respects to any with
whom our past governors have been
ucqualnted will begin In confusion and
end in disaster.
We do not share the premature Mug
wump despnlr that such a lift in pub
lic Ideals In this country, such a sus
tained rising to the requirements of
new and Imperial responsibilities, is Im
probable. The Mugwump has been de
spairing while the American nation has
been progressing with rapid strides for
one hundred years. Long habituation
to the pose and tone of despair has
made these more a matter of tradition
than of sincerity with him. At the same
time there is much to be done In edu
cation of public opinion If tho assump
tion by us of political guardianship to
alien peoples Is to be followed by
creditable results in colonial or terri
torial government; and the best thing
that our best citizens can do In this
matter Is to pull off their coats and go
to work.
The spectacle of a sailor from the
Oregon soundly pummellng two Rough
Riders because they hinted that the
Oregon was a Jonah diverted guests
at the Fifth avenue hotel the other
night and illustrated another odd
phase with regard to the war. It
would seem that representatives of the
two most talked of accomplishments
of the army and navy had vindicated
both the honor of the famous ship and
the equally famous troop without
needing to throw out an extra in the
shape of personal combat.
The milk In tho Canadian cocoanut
Is that Canada must get free acess to
American markets or go to pieces. A
little while ago, In an ebullition of
sentiment, Canada passed u law giving
Great Britain a preferential tariff rate
of 12V4 per cent. Tho Idea of Its fratn
ers was that thlB would divert trade
from tho United States to England nnd
forco us to rue for reciprocity. But It
had no such effect. On the contrary,
Imports into Canada from Great Brit-
aln actually declined while those from
tho United States, notwithstanding
the discrimination against them, in
creased nearly $19,000,000 In the year.
In other words, tho peoplo of Canada
needlessly taxed themselves Just tho
amount of tho tariff differential be
tween the duty on British Imports and
the duty on American. If the United
States were disposed to be unfriendly
to Canada It could wish for no greater
revenge than to let the Canadian gov
ernment go right on in this great work
of cutting ore Its nose to splto Its face.
Tho Republicans of Michigan iro evi
dently satisfied with Governor Plngree
inothwlthstandmg' the fun that has
been poked at him from nil over tho
country, since they nominated him by
acclamation on Wednesday. In accept
ing the nomination tho governor de
clared that he was "tho same old bald
headed Pincrcc ho was two years ago,
the kind that believes In principle
before party," but that tho Republican
party was the party of the common
people and therefore he was In It. The
convention Indorsed their govenor's
Idea of reform, which has ellcted so
much mirth In various quarters and so
It would seem that tho funny paragra
phcr may as well let up on Plngree nnd
turn him over to tho more serious
leader-writer.
Speuklng at Mcadvlllo recently ex
CongresHman Sowden of. Allentown
said ho could prove that "ScnaUjr
Quay had sold Lehigh county post-
offices in the most open and shameless
manner." to which Senator Quay re
plies: "In this statement Sowden lied
like a dog, as he Is. I have asked the
postolllre department to Investigate the
allotment of Lehigh county postolllces,
in which 1 have no concern." Evident
ly the senator has become tired of be
ing lied about by every chattering
Tom, Dick nnd Hurry, and proposes at
Inst to go on the war path himself.
Sowden and tho other vllifiers had bet
ter seek cover.
Under tho terms of the protocol
Spanish sovereignly over Cuba was
extinguished the day It was signed and
extended only for our convenience, un
til our commissioners could get there.
This being true, the trouble which
Blanco has tried to make by refusing
us tho right to land relief supplies
except upon payment of outrageous
port duties is something which we can
end when we will. The administration
should end it soon.
Chlnn Is said to be awakening from
the slumber of centuries and will fol
low the example of Japan in the wav
of encouraging everything pertaining
to western advancement. Educationul
Interests will be stimulated and inven
tors will be honored, and enterprise In
every form will receive the sanction of
the government. There is probably
nothing that will make the Chinese
regret this step until the period of bi
cycle scorchers and boards of control
arrives.
Chicago has already submitted plans
and specifications for a national peace
Jubilee, to eclipse tho world's fair.
There Is nothing like associating with
the early bird.
War seems to have boomed the col
lege business ns well as other Indus
tries. Princeton opens with nn en
rolment of 200 increase over last year.
Owing to the depression of Cuban in
dustries the Pittsburg toby will probab
ly have a monopoly this year as tho
campaign cigar.
Colonel Waring Is proposed for street
cleaner of Cuba. His experience with
Gotham's tilth ought to qualify him to
serve.
The Republicans of Indiana are un
decided whether to offer Mr. Ilynum
fatted veal or army bacon.
The French scandal will soon begin
to lose Interest unless razors arc passed

It Is said that several vest pockets are
already open to receive tho Hawaiian
vote.
National Results of
Expansion Policy.
From tho Chicago Inter-Ocean.
HEN tho United States took Its
placo in the family of nations it
had un area of O.SH bqunrc
miles and a coast lino of l.sw
miles. Today It has an area ot
3,025,000 square miles and an open inaht of
about 5,000 miles. However great the ex
pansion which may result trom tho war
with Spain, It will be, therefore, prepos
terous to assert that the nation has maJo
a new departure In Its policy. Even be
fore Independence was achieved by the
United States, tho Impulse of expansion
was upon us as a people. Tho Inhabit
ants along tho Atlantic seaboard felt no
need of more territory or moro outlets to
the sea. but tho pioneers along tho navi
gable streams emptying Into the Mississ
ippi wero pent up and repressed. They
were forced. If they wished to put torth
their exportable products, to pay tribute
to an alien and unfriendly power the
sumo Spain with which today we are
balancing territorial accounts. The more
our people multiplied west of tho Appa
lachian mountain range, the greater the
pressuro for an open way to salt water
by tho only route provided by nature.
o
Tho pressure for acquiring an unob
structed water course to the Gulf of Max
ico resulted In adding 1,171,031 square
miles to our territory and 1,000 linear
miles to our seaboard. So, too, the move,
ment to acquire territory trom Mexico
resulted In bringing us vastly moro of
both land and seacoast than was origin
ally Intended. Tho acquisition of tho
Philippines, when two Islands In the Cur.
Ihbean wero nil that we contemplated
originally, will only be n repetition of an
expansion experience which had already
repeated itself. Theso are by no means
new facts, but as there wero thirty-one
years from Alaska to Hawaii, during
which no new territory was acquired, It
Is Moult for tho American peoplo to
realize the large placo that expansion has
had In tho making of tho present United
States.
o
But territorial nnd coast-lino figures
give only an Inadequate Idea of what tho
growth of this notion owes to the most
aggressive of expansion policies that
modern history records. Strictly ma
terial hcnefltB, vast as tiny were and nrs,
fall far short of telling tho wholo story.
In an nddrcss before the .recent Joint bes
slon of tho National Geographical society
and the American Association for tho Ad
vancement of Science. Mr. W. J. .McGea
gave In detail the history of expansion
and mado this sugzestlve general obser
vation: "Tho material expansion was
quickly reflected In u widening of Intel-
Icctuat horizon among the people, who
were thereby confronted by now prob
lems; for, under republican organization,
nation problems aro problems of tho peo
ple rather than of leaders only. The Immediate-
result was renewed lntellcctu.il
and Industrial activity and the Implant
ing of a trait which has slnco become tut.
tlonnl I. c., enterprise; tho moro rcmoto
effects Included development of Interior
commerce, the application of steam to in
land navigation, thu founding of a lor
cIru carrying trade, nnd tho real opening
of that career of Invention and manufac
ture which has given character to the
American peoplo."
-o
No other nation has a record of terri
torial acquisition that can comparo with
our own In Its bcncllcent eirects. Great
Britain shows the best results after tlioso
attained to by this country. The wealth
of tho United States Is JSl.'iV.WO.UWl, to
Great Urltnln'u $Sn.0u0,UU0,ojo. The com
bined wealth of Germany, Russia, unci
Spain is little. It any, In excess of that of
the United States nlono. For u genera
tion our energies, ejvpnndcd by our tradi
tional policy of annexation, have been
pent up within our present borders, but
under tho quickening Influence or the
present rovlval of tho expansion policy
an Incalculable Impetus will be given to
our national fence and progress.
THEODORE ROOSEVELT.
From tho Buffalo Express.
Mr. Roosevelt will bo nominated for
governor and wilt bo elected by an over
whelming majority. Tho tide of popular
enthusiasm Is sweeping In his direction
so strongly that theso cvcntB appear In
evitable. Why It this? The colonel ot tho
Rough Riders Is not different Irom other
men In many respects. There nro sol
diers who are as brave and who have tho
personal qualities which compel tho same
loyal devotion and affection bestowed
upon their commander by tho Rough
Riders. Other men havo as high Ideal.i ot
citizenship nnd havo been as faithful In
tho civic duties which they have been
called upon to perform. Colonel Itoose
vclt has no monopoly of the personal vir
tues which bind ronn to man In social re
lations. Ills popularity us a candidate
for olllce is to bo explained by his pecu
liar political quality.
o
There are three general classes of mon
who nssumo leadership. One Is typltlcd
by tho local or ward boss, who, as a rule,
Is Incapable of looking beyond tho inter
tsts of himself and his constituents, who
has a genuine sympathey tor tho people
by whom he is Immediately surrounded'
and whoso standard of ethics permits hnn
to do questionable nets If they will bring
patronago and llnanel.il help to Ills tol
lowcrs. These men are usually honest In
their relations to public life, but they are
far from comprehending that public otilee
Is a public trust. Another class of lead
ers Is numerously represented In tho
larger Ileitis of state and national politics.
They understand and sympathize with
tho motives and life of tho dlllcrcnt
grades of society nnd they havo a lair
comprehension of the right and wrong ot
political questions. For the sako ot bU -cess,
however, they nro disposed to deter
timorously to popular demands, whether
they bcllevo fully In them or not. Usual
ly, they take us advanced positions as
they duro and they may be said to be i.s
consistent and devoted to reform policies
as they can bo and retain their hold on
the people. The members of a third cl.ns
of political leaders are committed to tho
highest Ideals of public life, but are so
far from being In touch with tho masses
that they seldom hold elective oltlces and
spend most of their strength In criticism.
o
Now, tho peculiar quality of Coloiel
Roosevelt is that ho Is so much ot n
whole-souled man of tho world that ho Is
able to think and sympathize tally with
every variety of citizen. Ho Is as much
the friend ot tho masses of nn East Side
district as Is any of their local leaders.
Ho also knows ;ho other social strata as
well as the politician who carries elections
by subordinating his principles to whit
he believes Is necessary for success. He
has tho most clear-cut ideas ot political
ethics. Tho combination Is exceptional.
With the fellow-feeling which makes him
tho Idol of tho men of tho west, ho has
tho advantage of being a keen student of
human nature In other aspects and of
having worked out political principles
which the conscience of tho nation ap
proves. o
If ho stopped there, he would bo one of
many men In public life. But what marks
him oft ns unlquo is that ho has the
courage of his convictions, that ho docs
not allow his sympathy for any class to
Interfere, with the performance ot duty,
that concern for tho retention or popu
larity Is not in his creed. Thero nro few
men In tho service of the country who
feel nhlo to tako this high position, t'e.
haps ho owes his own strict adherence to
Ideals of conduct to tho fact that he has
sufllelcnt wealth to -make him Independ
ent of tho rewards of oltice. At all
events, ho has followed a standard so ex
acting that the purists of the Mugwump
variety havo no rational criticism to olicr
a standard, moreover, which Is not too
far removed from tho needs nnd aspira
tions of the whole people to be visionary
and, while a born lighter, ho has tougnt
for principles without descending to at
tacking tho motives of those who opposo
him. It is this quality of consistency to
which General Wheeler referred when he
said that Colonel Roosevelt was a man of
tho most perfect horiesty.
Ch
it Is only at rare Intervals that the
public comes to rccognlzo a man of Mr.
Roosevelt's character. Tho sentiment of
the war seems to havo prepared It for
welcoming him as tho pcrsonlllcatlon of
the best thero Is In American life. In tlio
presence of this young knight, who Is
greater In his civic llfo than as a soldier,
tho deferenco to expediency which for
eigners say distinguishes our peoplo has
dropped uway, revealing thu true nttltuJe
of the American nation toward men who
act Independently and conscientiously.
Colonel Roosevelt's popularity, lu truth,
Is nothing but the recognition by other
citizens that he it what they are them
selves at their best.
