TERRITORIAL

"#r.' ~ u ."t. =. as t.Ee ..aIe Tux H@a#L 81
A superstitious reverence for thu
policy adopted by the founder Of oul
country has served for a century to cir
'cumscribe our legitimate sphere Of &C
'tion and to prevent us from exerting thai
power and influence which belongs to u:
as one Of the most progressive and en-
heightened nations of the earth. We have
too long overlooked the fact that a cen
fury Of mighty, irresistible progress has
interviewed since George Washington
guided the footsteps of the infant re
public.
j This country has a great and nobl,
mission, long held in allegiance, yet strong
and aggressive. That mission is to breal
the letters that have long bound the M,
lions of the sold world-subverting tc
selfish, %tyrranical interest the best re-
sources of body and mind. Our country
has a mission, still unperformed, to en-
graft upon the nations of the old world
ia higher and 'nobler civilization. The
civilization which has been developed
and perfected under a century of liberty
must be engrafted upon the old world
and nourished to fruition. The spread
;of American civilization owe the old
world would effect a great political, So
cial and moral regeneration. But to at
tain this result we must have bases of
supplies right neal the scene of action.
"A vigorous American colony in the
Philippines would be like a beacon of
hope in tho orient. "
, The time has come when the United
States is called upon to exert it's inhu-
ence and to protect its interests in the
broad arena of the world. Our growing
power and influence engenders a latent
opposition among other nations which
we must be prepared to meet. A strong
and effective navy is a powerful con-
'servative of peace, and is always essen
'tial to enforce the true principles of
liberty. Had we possessed a powerful
navy, Spain would never have dared to
pursue its barbarous policy in Cuba and
would have acceded to our demands in
respect to the island without war. And
when we came to prepare for war with
Spain the outlay was much more than
would have been occasioned if we had
built up a navy during times of peace,
and the results would have been much
more satisfactory. An extension of our
navy is also demanded to enable us to
enforce the Monroe doctrine, to protect
the Nicarauguan canal-when built, and
to assert our legitimate influence in the
settlement of the Eastern question.
Much opposition is manifested toward
territorial expansion through fear that
we may become embroiled in foreign
wars, but recent events teach us that we
have Ito fear of the result of any contest
with European powers. We need have
no further fear of going out of our back
yard for legitimate exercise. Tho re-
suits of the war between the states
secured fer us 3 long era of peace and
due respect for u rights abroad. And
the result of the present war, showing
that the North and South are strongly
united again will give us a powerful
prestige among nations and serve to curt
any meddlesome influence in Europe.

Cause OF Disaster.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 8.-An explosion
md fire at 6:15 o'clock wrecked the su.
preme court room and the rooms imme-
diately adjoining it on the main floor Of
the Capitol. The damage is enormous.
The entire central eastern part of the
great marble pile from the main floor to
the subterranean basement ispractically
. mass Of ruins. The force Of the explo-
sion was SO heavy that the coping stones
on the outer walls, just east of the point
where the explosion occurred, were
bulged out nearly two inches; windows
in all that part of the building were
blown out and locked doors were forced
from their hinges quite $50 feet from
the scene Of it. Fire followed the ex-
plosion so quickly as to seem practically
simultaneous. The explosion
shook the Immense Structure
to its foundations and was heard sew
eral squares from the Capitol. It oc-
CURED in a small room, tightly enclosed
by heavy stone walls, in the subter-
ranean basement Immediately below the
main entrance to the old Capitol build
ing. In this room was q gas meter
which is fed from the gas main. Very
little gas is used in that part Of the
building, but at the time Of the ex-
plosion the gas had not been turned on
at tho meter. The meter itself was
wrecked. The flames resulting from
the explosion darted up the shaft Of the
elevator, which had been completely
destroyed by the force of the explosion,
and communicated with the record
room of the supreme court, the office Of
the marshal of the court and the SUI
preme court library. Before the flames
could be subdued the priceless docu-
ments in the record room had been
Almost Totally Destroyed
and serious damage had been done in
the marshal's Office and some minor
rooms in the immediate vicinity. The
library of the supreme court, located
Immediately beneath the supreme court
room, was badly damaged by fire,
smoke and water, practically destroying
the great collection Of law reference
books. The library contains about 90
600 volumes and was used not only by
the Justices of the supreme court but by
members of congress and lawyers prac-
ticing before the supreme court.
