Duty Is Apparent.

AFTER destroying their government IL is
the duty of the American government 10
provide for them better one. Shall we
distrust ourselves, shall we proclaim to the
world our inability TO give kindly govern
ment to oppressed peoples, whose future,
by the victories of war; is conhded to US?
We may wish 1t were otherwise, but who
Will question our duty now?
1T is not a question of keeping the Is
lands of the east, but of leaving them
Dewey and Merritt took them and the
country instantly and universally appla ud-
cd.
Gould we have brought Dewey away
without universal condemnation at any
time from the LIST OF May. the say of his
brilliant victory which thrilled the world
with its boldness and herolsm?
Was 1t right to order Dewey to go 10
Manila and capture OF destroy the Spanish
fleet and dispatc Merritt and his army TO
reinforce him?
IF it were duty 20 aend them there. and
duty required them to remain there, II was
their clear duty to annihilate the feet take
the city of Manila, anc destroy the Spanish
sovereignty in the archipelago.
Having done all that in the line Of duty
Is there any less duty TO remain there and
give to the inhabitants protection and also
cur guidance to better government
which will secure to them peace and order
and security In their Ike and property and
in the purust of happiness?
Are we unable to co this? Are we to
sit down in our isolation and recognize no
obligation to a struggling people whose
present conditions we have contributed to
make? | would rather have the confidence

Seas and stormy air
Are the wide barrier of thy borders, where
Among thy gallant sons that guard thee

Thou laughst at enemies. Who shall then

The date of thy deep founded strength, or

An UnexpIored Field.

Neither prejudice nor passion. nor pre-
vious condition can embarrass the free ac-
ton and calm judgment OF the citizen. We
have entered upon new paths. We are
treading in an UNEMPLOYED field which will
test our wisdom and craftsmanship.
THE chief consideration is one of duty;
our actions must be controlled by it, No
settlement is admissible which will not
preserve our honor and promote the best
interests of all concerned.
with a united country and the gathered
wisdom of all the people. seeking only the
right, inspired only by high purposes,
moved only by duty and humanity, we can
not err. We may be bafiled or deferred and
often discouraged. but final success in q
cause which Is altogether unselfish and hui
manitarian can only be deferred. not pre-
vented ...
IF. following the clear precepts of duty,
territory falls TO us, and the welfare of an
ellen people require our guidance and pro-
lection. who will shrink from the respon-
sibility, grave though 1t may be?
Can We leave those people VINO, by the
fortunes Of war and our own acts, are
helpless and without government TO chaos
and anarchy, after We have destroyed the
only government they have had?

PATHOF DUTYSHOWN
President Mckinley on Our Obliga-
tons in Philippines.
THE ISLANDS CANNOT BE ABANDONED.
Extracts from His Address mt n Bnn-
anct In Savannah, Ga.-Quotes the
Poet Bryant on Nations Flu
turc Greatness.

Savannah, Ca, Dec. 10.-President
Mckinley, on his entry into Savannah
at 1O:30 o'clock Saturday morning, was
welcomed with a salute of 81 guns,
| fired from brass cannon presented by
Gen. Washington to the Chatham
| guards, of Savannah, los years ago.
Ten thousand people were massed at
the front of the De Soto hotel to greet
him, and against their determination
| to get close to the carriages of the
| presidential party the Georgia hussars,
acting as escort, and the provost guard,
were as toy soldiers.
After brief halt at the hotel, the
presidential party proceeded to the re-
viewing stand, erected at Forsythe
park.
Fourteen thousand soldiers of the
Seventh army corps, commanded by
Maj. Gen. j. Warren Kiefer, passed in
review before the commander in chief,
and the impressive military ceremonial
was witnessed by 10000 civilian specta-
tors.
Three hundred persons were present
at the banquet table at night, and when
President Mckinley arose to respond
TO the toast, THE United States" the
cheering was as enthusiastic as any
that has characterized his week of tri-
umphs.
President on Nations Duty.
When the applause had subsidized the
president said:
: There is cause for congratulation that
with the grave problems before as growing
out of the war with Spain. we are free from
any divisions a. home.
Our financial and revenue policies can
not be changed for at least four years. and
whatever legislation may be had affecting
them during that period will be to improve
and strengthen, not destroy them.
The public mind can, therefore, repose
iE reasonable security, while business Will
! proceed without apprehension Of serious
and sudden changes so distracting to the
| commercial world and so distracting TO the
| business man All of which is fortunate
| for ,be country, for every interest and
every section of the country.
! Even those who desire other and diff
| ferent policies prefer permanence to con-
| slant change. or. what is almost as hurtful,
! the fear of change. There are happily now
| nc domestic differences to check the prog
| ress and prosperity of the country which
our peaceful relations with the whole
world will encourage and strengthen.
| This is fortunate, too In another sense.
1t leaves the country free to consider and
| discuss new questions which are immedi-
ately before US. unbiased by party or past
/ political alliances These new questions
| are TO be thought out and wrought out. not
! in a spirit of craftsmanship, but in q spirit
| of patriotism, not for the temporary adj
vantage OF one party or the other, but for
the lasting advantage of the country.
