DR.. HENRY WADE ROGERS.

DE. HENRY WADE kOGEtS-
Their, we must prove our ability to keep
the islands This can be done by hold
ing them until the establishment Of
peace or an equivalent of peace.
President Rogers believes it is too
early TO form a definite policy regard
ing the islands. He says, however, that
the United States ought not TO annex
them, and he cites the early statesmen
and their ideas of our foreign policy
He thinks we should hold them until
the close of the war, and then restore
them TO Spain after that country has
paid our expenses in the war.
lin my opinion, said DIR Rogers
lit is too early to say what the policy
of the United States should be as to
these islands. In the first place, the Unit
ed States has no title to the islands
Ownership and sovereignty are not ae-
quired by the bare fact of possession.
Vattel and writers in international law
since his time have abandoned the the
DRY that territory passes as a res nullius
into the possession of an occupant. The
original national character of their in
habitants remains unaltered, and the
United States can have nothing better
/
IF the United States shall be in DOS
session of the islands when peace is con
cluded, it will be entitled to retain
them permanently or to dispose of them
as it sees fit, provided there is no stip-
ulation to the contrary in the treaty of
peace. The United States may acquire
title by conquest, but TO do so it must
announce its intention to appropriate
and manifest its ability to keep the is
lands. The first is shown by procla-
nation of annexation, aud writers on
international law tell US that ability to
elnss56 u sp3ssscs 81 81 Tie establishment
OF an equivalent state of things.
At present we have no rights of
sovereignty over these islands and
nothing we could dispose of if we were
SO lncIlned In the second place. it is
too early to form definite policy as to
the course we should pursue, as subse-
qnent events may make it necessary to
formulate an entirely different policy.
90 not believe that the govern
ment OF the United States should annex
the islands. This country cannot wisely
enter upon colonial policy The early
statesmen had very sound ideas as to
what our foreign policy should be- and
90 Tar we have pretty consistently ad-
hered to the principles which they ad
Vocated. They never believed in colo
lial policy or in the acquisition of |
erritory in the sea far away from our
shores The people who inhabit these

We can afford to invest them with Amer

When SO many strange occurrences go
