DE Almond ON A annexation
From Tuesdays St. Louis Republic.

|
Judge ID A DeArnond, who has
just baen again nomDated in the
Sixth District, WAS In St. Louis yes
,erdav. Particular significance be-
longs to his opinions On current is
sues, as he is regarded by many of
the strongest men in The House as
the next Democratic leader in Con
gress and candidate TO the Speaker
ship. He is always decided in his
views, aud when ashd yesterday
what he held to be the sound Demo
cratic policy on questions of annex
tation developed by var. he replied
promptly:
"Certainly will gie the Repub-
lie my opinion of tie annexation
question, about whih there is a
good deal said nowadays.
Il believe the MoDoe Doctrin is
founded in reason aud may be de
Tended on principle; AID 1 believe,
too, that it may be applied now,
with honor and safety to our coun.
try.
81 believe the Monr,e Doctrine ap-
plies to the islands djacent to the
American mainland aswell as to the
mainland itself
Il believe that il, il the enforce

violence to it, extsndour own bord-

tened upon US, with all it's attendant
evils. The government Of the far
distant province would, almost in.
evitably and soon, become corrupt,
and we would be adrift upon the sea
OF world politics. afar from the safe
moorings pointed out by the faith
ers.
Il believe We should acquire such
coaliDg stations as may be neces
sary for the proper extension and
protection of our commerce.
I'm my judgement the withdrawal
OF our forces from Cuba and the
Philippines should occur quite soon
after the expulsion of the Span.
iatds l do not believe in the policy
OF quartering large forces in those
islands. at the expense OF our own
people, and contrary, as 1 think, to
hoSCSSA'g nAO pIOpilceJ'
The scheme TO help the Spanish
adh4rents 10 Cub4 to control the
new government is one that deserves
no cOuntepance in this country. It
would be disgIsceful performance,
indeed, for US to turn against the
patriot, insurgent Cubans, who
ought TO be left TO control and shape
the destinies OF the island nation,
for whose freedom they have fought
so long and well, and endured 80
much.
ut would be lasting disgracs to
our nation if we should aid in fas.
tening upon Cuba any of the Span
ish debt, made in efforts TO continue
Cuban slavery. Much fairer and
better would it be to ask the Cuban
Republic (sfficered by Cuban patri-
OTIS, and not by Cuban toriep,) to
bear part OF the expences incurred
by US in driving out their Spanish
and no doubt, if treated
right by us, the Cubans would con
tribute gladly to reimburse us az
their champions
And why would 1t not be best to
make the Philippine Islanders free'
Not one OF them should be cast back /
into Spanish slavery. We have the
power to make Spain withdraw from
these islands Why should We hes
tate to exercise that power, for the /
sake OF liberty and humanity? And, |
having given freedom to the Philip
pines, why ought We not to exact
rom them a reasonable indemnity,
u money or bonds, en- account of
our war expenditures!

For our own nation the fruits
Of the war are On opportunity.
What il may do, in Atlantic or
Pacific islands, will 90 far to shape
the history Of this country and
the world. 1t is in territorial i'm.
portance one of the greatest wars
in history, though few in days and
small in losses. Porto Rico alone
would be for so brief . contest a
large result. Cuba would be in
American hands one of the richest
possessions on earth. The Philip.
pines, if organized and directed
with the best intelligence Of which
Americans are capable, would be
incomparably more valuable than
both the w est india islands. But
what tho nation has conquered is
mainly an opportunity.
When we look down the long
aisles of the future and see the
possible ten million prosperous
and happy Americans in Cuba. the
possible five millions in Porto
Rico. and the uplifting of the
Philippine Islands from barbarlsm
to the front If civilization, the
change in the face of the world by
four months of 1898 seems scarcely
credible, and is quite immeasur'
able. But it is all an opportunity
and not yet realized fact. The
greatest and best work Americans
have yet done in self.control, and
in organization and development
outside their own personal habi-
tude, has to be done before the
full value Of the lives given and
the wealth expended in 1898 can
be realized. Yet the Unlocking
world, seeing the calm and wise
craftsmanship and the resistless
resolution of the American repub-
lie and its president thus far,
looks for grander results in the
future than most people of this
country have yet contemplated

SNEAK THIEVES
Entered p. J. Gross Store and
Took Goods Amounting
to About 5000. ~

Some time between $50 O'Clock
Wednesday night and opening up
time next morning thieves pried open
one III the west windows Of Gross
store. entered, and carried away a
considerable quantity Of goods.
Both money tills were smashed,
change to the extent Of about IS
being secured. s.
They looted all Of the dra wers in
the desk. and In their, haste over
looked a revolver In one Oi them. An
entire tray III rings. two gold
watches and silver one are among
the missing, besides a large quantity
OF miscellaneous jewelry. Several
pairs Of gloves, come pants and
about halt d dosen hats. also three
or four pair Of shoes are gone. A
large quantity Of tobacco was also
taken. ,....
MIR. Gross said It was impossible
to tell just Exactly how much and
what was gone. but thought his los''
would figure up close to $A'O. and
probably more.
1t seems strange the thieves were
not heard, for when they entered
they were obliged to crawl over sew
eral tin tea cans. piled in front OF
ths window. The cans this morning
were tulnbled down.
1t seems strange that some one
did not nee them because large
light was left burning when the store
was closed, ana was still burning
this morning. although tho chimney
was somewhat smoked, showing
that perhaps they turned the blaze
higher. The rear door and a win.
dow were also opened. .s,
Mr.. Grosa says that q couple oi
young fellows. both smooth shaven.
came into the store Wednesday and
each bought a cocoanut for 81 cents,
each paying for his own purchase.
When they left the store they went
around to the side Of 1t. where there
is pump. Gross lett the store at
the same time, and asked them what
they were going there for. They
said q drink, and walked on back to
the alley, that being the last seen OF
them.
They claimed that they lived in
Michigan, and had just come from
Dakota. where they had been work.

pockets.
