we. then, to attempt to force civilization
and Christian religion upon them. as
MohamJued made his proselytesy This,
of course, would be expressly contrary to
our declaration of Independence. and to
the principles upon which the govern
ment of the United States rests. How
many lives of their sons do Vermont and
the other States of our solid and homo
generous union wish to sacrifice to &C
complish 1t, and how many more annually
hereafter in governing these islandsf Our
few months experience at Manila, and in
nearby Cuba and Porto Rico should make
us wake to these questions. What
"logic'' or what humanity" demands or
even tempts us to this sort of imperial
ism''P Let the advocates .ofssuch an enter
prise point out definitely what are the
grounds for such course. Congress has
solemnly pledged the national honor
and faith that we had no purpose of ter
ritor1al ACKNOWLEDGMENT, even as to Cuba,
only one hundred miles from our shores.
1t is true, the victor in war is entitled to
indemnity; but the victor who has made
war for humanity, has no right to be ex-
tortionate because he IL strong. The
cession Of Porto Rico, and one OF the
Ladrones for a coaling station and refuge
on the way from our western coast to
Asiatic ports is ample for every. expense
of the war that can be measured by money
value Even Porto Rico would be, as d
part of the United States an INJURY to us
In the long run but for its situation In
connection with the Nicaragua canal. AL
ready some newspaper writer's have
opened the question of it's admission as q
State of the Union, with senators having
an equal voice in making laws for this
country with that of the senator's OF from
Vermont or New York or any other State.
The er-minded inhabitants OF eacn Oh
the States should consider the enormous
danger of introducing such elements and
such power into the Senate, where al our
States stand equal, and which, as John
dams described it, is 'fthe sheet anchor
of the republic" and the only security OF
State rights.
Porto Rico, like every other tropical
country, eveniif it were not already fully
populated, will.not admit OF North Amer
loan settlement, and development on ac-
count Of its climate. The experience of
hundreds of years, all over the tropical
parts of the globe has demonstrated this.
So it is only In view of its location in re-
Iation to the water way across the CONT
nent that it is desirable to US. Why,
then. should we wish, or be willing, to
receive the Philippines?

what have said states concisely what /

quisltion ofsthese islands.

in Portland's goal. o'Malley also played
a good goal, but played in hard LUCK.
The Augusta team seemed to try TO play,
but they were not able to keep up WIN

FOLIO NOTES.
On Thursday night the Bath team with
W. Dawson and Curtis and other old
Portland favorites will play the Portlands
at the Auditorium. The game is bound
to be an exciting one as the Baths have to
drop their first game this season and have
been playing remarkably fast polo SO far.
They defeated Portland tbs last time they
met them, and will make an effort to do
again as Dawson and Curtis will play
hard to show their friends in Portland
that they haven't forgotten how to play
the game. There will be an amatuer
game between the BraInhslls and South
Portlands at half past seven clock before
the regular game commences. Seats may
be had for this game at Chambers N usic
store.
Polo has become very fast in Portland
since the men began to play on the fine
floor at the Auditorium. 1t is constan
hustle from beginning to end at a polo
game now. II was impossible to play
with much speed on the old City hall
floor and patrons of the game in the sea-
sons which have passed hardly realized
what difference good floor makes in
the playing.
Bangor did we'll at Rock1and last night
and the latter team had Murphy with
them too. Manager Frenoh's aggregation
will be heard from before the season is
much older and near the top Of the list
too.
Manager Kelsey of Lewiston has two
fast rushers on the string, and means to
give the twin cities fast team to repre-
sent them.
An amateur polo league has been or
ganized in Bangor. The interest in polo
in that city is on the increase.

unable to approach within two hundred
yards.
The wreck lies on a coral reef about
eioht miles off Cat island and outside

No wrscking work can be done for at
iaast three months owing to the northeast
trade winds and during that period it is
more than likely that the hull will be
hattered to pieces by the waves which
inst now are very violent. Ii, however.
ne hull holds together for that time, it
corld be easily pulled off into deep water
sfter the pumping out process. 1t Is con-
sidered that such an undertaking is not
at; all likely, owing to the very heavy
cost. The tug reports encountering
tramendous ssas The captain describes
tha weather as some of this worst ever
knew in this part of the world. +"
