MR. BLAINE'S FOREIGN POLICY-
Mr. .lames M-rria Morgan, who wa
an oflictr in tin Cuffdcialo navy anl
ws sul)j que utly connect yd with the
Egyptian uiy, has issued in pamphlet
form a defense of Mr. Iilaine's foreign
policy, entitled "America's Kypt." It
ii a strongly written document and de
rives its chief int rt from the skillful
manner m which he contrasts the peo
ple ot Mexico und of Egypt and the
pernicious results which must follow
from m v. j .lication ot t!i methods
England bus imrsucd ui var;!s Egypt,
growing ou! of its ownership in the
ifuez ciin-il, nn 1 those of a similar na
ture which would be ai plicd should
England obtain an interest in the pro
posed Panama carat.
The parallel which Mr. Morgan draws
between M cxico and Eypt is aston
ishingly close. In the similarity of
appearance and custom?, in agricultu
ral methods, in the habits of the peon
aud the fellah, in all their social an i
political conditio; ?, in their form of
government, in their treatment of for
eigners, the two people are. much alike,
and "i he tourist tailing asleep at Alex
nndria and waking up at Vera Cruz.
would scarcely know that he was in a
new land." lie goes on further, and
with numerous illustrations shows that
Americans have not been treated with
justice in the Mexican and Central
American republics, and that these re
publics have not been hekl accountable
for infringement upon theii rights.
When Mr. ISiaine entered President
Gai field's cabinet he conceived that
there was but one way in which these
outrages could be stopped, and that
was to hold those who perpetrated
them responsible, and that there was
but one way to prevent the establish
ment of a European protectorate in
Mexico and the Central American
states, and that was by the interposi
tion of the Monroe doctrine. As Mr.
Morgan says:
The control of the Pau ma Canal, he
said in substance, must not pnss out of
the hands of the United States govern
ment. e are the masters on tuts
c ntiuent. We do not intend to see
Great Britain acquire a predominating
nfluence in these parts aud lord it over
America as she does over Asia and Af
rica, l can cauy unaersiana wny
Great Britain would not like to see Mr.
Blaine in the Presidential chair. For,
"wherever Mr. Blaine can oust the
British from the position they hold on
the American continont." said the Pall
Mall Gazette of London, after the nomi
nation, 'he will endeavor to replace
English influence and trade by Anieri-
can tngiauu win watcn wnn
extreme sohcituele tha progres-9 of the
Electoral campaign." We Americans
understand such language as that per
fectly, and will act as the interests and
honor of our country dictate. We do
uot want France or Great Britain to
build a Suez canal iu America, as they
did in Egypt, and then establish men
acing naval armaments to protect that
canai. We do not want to be stopped,
at we travel from New Yoik to San
Francisco by a Fiench oflicial or a
British otilcial . We ar.', and we want
to retrain masters of our destinies.
Add to these steps namely: his in
tention to maintain the Muroe doc
trine and the maintenance of our rights
in Mexico, Central America, and South
America the proposed issue of his
invitation to all the independent gov
ernments of North and South America
to meet in a Peace Congress at Wash
ington, and we have the whole nf Mr.
Blaine's terrible war policy.
AtL the laboring men ot'the countiy
need to understand of the great dtmo
cratic par'v, is to read today's proceed
in j of its national convention in re
gard to the adoption of a platform.
Old Ben Butler, of Massachusetts,
on behalf of the laboring classes he
represents, took the platform and open
ly protested against tha memingless
and dishonest platform reported by the
m jority in regard to the tariff, and
asked the convention who could under
stand it. In its place he offered the
follow iug substitute in substance w bieh
declares, "Duties must be carefully ad
justed so as to promote American en
terprise and foster industries and
American labor. Also favoring labor
tribunal to settle coa ioversies between
capital aud labor.'
The old war horst yarned the con
vention that Hancock !met his defeat
Uoo an equivocal and dishonest plat
form, lure the present one just reported
to the convention, yet the old m&n'a
Mr. John Kelly made a good point
which was. not sulHciently noticed, in
hie argument against the unit rule
Tuesday, lie said that while the pro
tectants against the operations of the
unit rule were in a iniuoritv ol the
New York delegation they probably
represented a majority of the votrs in
the State, or at least they came from
the counties which cast the heaviest
democratic majority. There are, iu
fact, lees than a dozen democratic coun
ties in New York. The democratic
vote is massed iu such couuties h New
York aud Kings. If Mr. Kelly and
his u6sociates were expelled from the
democratic parly, as some of the hot
headed bulldozers in the South desire
that tiiey should be, and their follow
era should go with them, as we have no
question a majority of them would do,
the democratic party would not carry
the Kmpire 'State (New Yor ) once
in a hundred years. It is well enough
for the boasP3.s from Mississippi and
Texas to talk about putting the knife
to the throat of John Keliy, but the
moment they fulfill their pi umises they
may bid good-bye to tbc prospect of
seeing the ilemocratic patty in power
as long as they shall live.
Carter Harrison made the same
old speech to the Chicago convention,
in which he reiterated over and oyer
again that the democratic party was
die pocr man's party, gotten up express
ly for the poor man, and adapted to all
his wants; especially the Irishmen and
German, and that Cleveland was the
especial champion of thebe classes. It
was a good speech of the kind only it
was made in an unhealthy locality for
such speeches. John Kelly, Grady, and
such champions of the foreign races
had made a great mistake if Mr. Cleve
land was their hest friend, and had
come up from New York expressly to
tight the man Carter thought was their
best friend. To reael the Chicago
mayor's speech one would think Cleve
land was running for mayor of Chi
cago. The Cleveland supptirters must be
verdaut in politics to attempt to catch
old birds with chaff.
The offer of the Treasury Portfolio
to old Ben, Butler for his support iu the
nominating convention was indignant
ly refused by that gentleman with -the
remark that when he tooK a cabinet po
sition in an administration it must be
undei somebody who has had some ex
perience and knowledge of American
poliiics.
