First PriKiBleK
So long as the United States adheres
to the principles of the Constitution,
. and bends every energy to make those
principles the living, active motive of
government, wo shall be safe in what
ever acquisitions of territory ro may,
by the natural course of events, be com
pelled to make.
The primary object of government,
with this nation, never has been, and it
is hoped never will be, .the accumulation
of lands, but the "general welfare," the
good of the people, and of this the peo
ple themselves are the judges.
The Journal can see, in all our action
in regard to Spain, where our interests
were involved, that our government has
been very lenient, until lenience became
almost criminal, and then, the war was
of the aamo thorough-going nature, and
now. aa we have said all along she would
be, the United States is really the very
best friend that Spain has. We wish
the nation well. We hope they will
mend their waya, and get rid of their
evil habits, and thus come to prosperity
and the peace of justioe.
But, is it not strange that there are
living right among us those who prof
to fear that the United States, especia
lly in recant assumptions of responsi
bility, are about to plunge headlong in
to just auch fatal methods of misrule as
we have aeau with Spain? And this un
der the adauniatration of one of, the
aaeat augucJoue and coaaciautiona of ex
ecutivea that the United States has ever
We are not to make such a plunge in
to the abyaa. The welfare of the Cubans,
the Philippinos, etc., is the guiding
principle for us, the rule of action in
aay event. The American people would
sever institute nor consent to a policy
of spoliation upon those who are, tem
porarily at least, wards of the republic.
The general welfare consists with
good, stable government, which means
order, justice, equal rights, all of which
are only secured when the people are
animated by the true spirit of liberty
and progress, and this, it is the pleasure
of America to see, to understand, and to
balp bring to all peoples with whom abe
has to do.

REVEREND DOCTOR SAMUEL GOODALE departed this life Thursday
evening, December 8, at hk home in thk city. He. was born in Berkshire
county, Massachusetts, in 1814. A sketch of hk eventful life waa given in Tax
JocRNAt of Nov. 30, 1896.
The body lay in .state at the Episcopal church Monday from 10 a. m. to 2 p.
m., at whichtime funeral services began, conducted by Rector of the Episcopal
church, Burgess of Plattsmouth; Johnson of South Omaha; Pattee of Schuyler;
Marsch of Central City; Von Fleet of Norfolk and Weed of thk city.
A number of ministers of, the churches of the city attended the funeral
together.
Musio was furnished by the snrpliced choir rendering the hymns "Lead,
Kindly Light," "Abide in Me," besides responses.
There were a number of beautiful and elaborate floral offerings.
The pall-bearers were J. D. Stires, Henry Hockenberger, George Lehman,
Charles Stillman, E. H. Chambers, O. T. Roen; the honorary pall-bearers, L. Ger
rard, C. A. Speice, J. E. North, H. J. Hudson, J. R Smith, A. M. Post.
A large concourse of sorrowing friends followed the body to its last resting
place. ,
Mr. Goodale has been what the world calk an old man for almoat the average
life-time of 'the race of men, and. .through all hk. life, ao far aa we have learned of
it, he has been loyally serving tho. Master he coaecientiouely professed to follow.
He recognized the. Divine leading; he followed the suggestions that came to him
through the better elements of the human nature from tbe Source of All Strength,
the Fountain of All Good; he avoided evils because they were sins, and for tbe
rest, trusted, as a little child trusts its mother, Him in whom he bolkvod. He
was another living illustration of the fact that all true religion has relation to
life, and that the very life of religion, so far as the human recipient k concerned,
k to do good; uppermost with him, in all he did, aeemed tbe universal rule of
right: "Seek ye first the kingdom of God and hk righteousness," understanding
thereby that the "kingdom" is Divine Truth, the "righteousness," Divine Love.
He died, as he had livod. In the evening, after supper, at home, with hk
faithful, lifo-companion, apparently without a struggle, perhaps without a con.
scions pang, his gentle spirit passed to its home, freed from the clay tenement.
Let us believe that death k but an incident of life, not its close; that, while the
visible and mortal part has been consigned to earth, the invisible, the immortal
part, the real, has but disappeared from mortal view, to be forever with the Lord
