“CODM.SHIH AND GREED.”
To a certain extent the United State*
has been in the business of annexing
territory and governing without the
consent of the annexed from the begin*
Ring on down, but no good American
could ever see it in that light or be in
duced to admit It Now, however, the
case against us is so clear that tbe
people of other conquering nations can
ray, "You’re another,* without fear of
successful contradiction, and criticism
of the land-grabbing Englishman halts.
The delightful writings of Mark
Twain are full of barbed shafts aimed
at European methods and especially at
the land-grabbing Englishman. Being
still In possession of the fullness of his
powers, the Inimitable Mark has natur
ally disposed to write a good deal more
along the same lines but finds himself
handicapped by the far-reaching results
of the Bpanlsh-Amerlcan war. Ills oid-
jtlme darts are robbed of much of tbelr
rtlng, and he can not Impale the Euro
pean or flay the Englishman alive with
the lame success w foremrly. His at-
tltudo toward certain questions now
before the country could,therefore, have
been accurately predicted beforehand.
His recent personification of Dame
Christendom as a hypocritical old lady
returning at the dAwn of the twentieth
century from an outrageous debauch in
China, Houth Africa and the Philip
pines, afrsld to look in a mirror but
eager for soap and toweils for the
titansing of her pious.exterior was as
characteristic as It was amusing and
exactly what was to be expected*
The same may be said of Mr. Clem
ens' article In the February North
American Review, in which he flays
the imperialists In general and Presi
dent McKinley In particular. The lat
ter, he says, forgot hla noble utterances
about "criminal aggression" within a
twelvemonth and proceeded to play
"the European game, the Chamberlain
game,'* and tho worst of It Is that he
played It badly. This clumsy player,
however, belongs to the "trinity of our
national gods," each of which Is de-
f -rlbed with the "emblem of hla ser
vice" as follows: "Washington, tho
h*ou\ of tjio liberator; Lincoln, the
slave's broken chains; McKinley, the
chains repaired." Tho satirist finds
that our Philippine policy In too Intrl-

[ friend of hla land and hla

ence*
As the New York Evening post Is
strongly antl-imperlaUst In every way
and is continually belaboring tho ad
ministration for its supposed reluctance
to grant Cuba its Independence, that
paper may be relied on not to print
anything more than it can avoid in the
way of news that will tend to sustain
and confirm the administration In its
policy. The following paragraph from
a letter from a staff correspondent In
Cuba In a recent Issue of the Post is,
therefore, particularly interesting and
significant:
"In spite of all talk which has been
made about Cuba Libre, Cuba free and In
dependent. Cuba a distinct national entity
in absolute control of its own affairs,
there le no question that few Cubans have
tit all expected to see a day of unabridged
Cuban sovereignty, and It Is also very
doubtful If more than a small minority
really desire that day. I think It be
yond question that the force of the aft-
uoiute independence movement has been
greatly overestimated In the United
Htstes. But there Is no question that
therd is such a movement, and that It has
a certain number of forceful loaders. It
Is equally certain that their failure to
obtain that which they desire, whatever
may be their motives, would be* disas
trous to Cuban interests In many ways if
tho obstruction were to come from the
American authorities."
This staff correspondent believes Cu
ban Independence ought to become an
accomplished fact, but, as a result of
his observations on the spot, he de
clares that "the force of the absolute
Independence movement Is greatly
overestimated In the United States,”
that "few Cubans have at all expected
to see a day of unabridged Cuban sov
ereignty," and that "It Is very doubtful
if more than a small minority really de-
slrt that day." If only "a small mi
nority" desire absolute independence,
what Is to become of the wishes of the
great majority? According to Ameri
can theories, what Is desired by the ma
jority Is the first and all-important
consideration.
If tho above utterance had appeared
in an administration organ of annexa
tionist leanings, it might be dismissed
wthout comment as unworthy of se
rous consideration, but, as the utter
ance of the staff correspondent of onn
of the most pronounced antl-Imperlal-
1st and anti-annexatlonist newspapers
of the whole country, It certainly can
not be regarded as an exaggeration and
must bo based on conditions as they
really exist. All that can bo said, how
ever, la that the majority of Cubans
must make themselves heard so dis
tinctly that there can be no mistake.
Once they have done this, the people
of the United States can decide In free
dom, and without reference to the Tel
ler resolution of 1808, whether or not
they wish to hold Cuba as a depend
ency.

There Is nothing nattier than a nut,
