HE SCORES EXPANSION,
Letter to Ewing Winslow, of Anti-Imperi-
alist League, a Philippi Directed Against
Administrations Policy--Compares
Friends of Measure to George
III. and Lord North

/ ton of the warnings of our fathers
and of the farewell address of Wash
! ington.
| Third, that there was never tropi-
| cal colony yet governed with any toler-
| able success without q system of con-
| tract labor
| Fourth, the trade advantages of the
| Philippine Islands, if there be any,
/ must be opened alike to all the world,
and that our share of them will never
begin to pay the cost of subjugating
them by war or holding them in sub
lection in peace.
Fifth, that the military occupation of
these tropical regions must be kept at
an immense cost both to the souls and
the bodies of our soldiers.
Sixth, that the declaration as to
Cuba by the president and by congress
applies with stronger force to the case
of the Philippine Islands,
Seventh. that Aguinaldo and his fol-
lowers before we began to make war
upon them had conquered their own
territory and independence from Spain,
with the exception of single city, and
were getting ready to establish a free
constitution.
Eighth, that While they are fighting
for freedom independence and the doc
( trines of our fathers, we are fighting
for the principle that one people may
control and govern another, in spite of
its resistance and against its will.
Ninth. that the language and argu-
ment of those who object to this war,
are without change, the language and
argument of Chatham, of Fox, Burke,
Ct Barre, of Camden and of the Eng
lish and American wings, and the Ian
guage and argument of those who sup
port it, are the language and argument
of George III, of Lord North of Mans
field, of Wedderburn and of Johnson
and of the English and American to-
ries
Tenth. no orator, or newspaper, or
preacher being a supporter of this pol
icy ? of subjugation, dares repeat in
speech or in print any of the great ut
terances for freedom of Washington,
of Jefferson, of John Adams, of Abra-
ham Lincoln, or of Charles Sumner.
The question the American people
are now considering and with which
they are about to deal, is not a oues-
ton Of a day or of a year, or of ad-
ministration, or of a century, 1t is
to affect and largely determine the
whole future of the country. We can
recover from a mistake in regard to
other matters which have interested or
divided the people, however important
or serious.
Tariffs and currency and revenue
laws, even foreign wars, all these, as
Thomas Jefferson said, are "billows
that will pass under the ship" But if
the republic is to violate the law of its
being, if it is to be converted into an
empire, not only the direction of the
voyage is to be changed, but the chart
and the compass are to be thrown
away We have not as yet taken the
irrevocable step. Before it is taken.
let the voice of the whole people be
heard.
l am, with high regard,
Faithfully yours,
George F. HOar

left Shrewsbury Wednesday morning
according to his own story, and came
to WHcester, accommodating jag that
would make him a hero among the
members of his tribe, and started out
on the warpath. He wound up in the
Union station against Michael Deedy,
the special officer, who put a quietus
on the Indian by sending him to sta
ton / in the police team.
Louis told his story to Judge Utley,
bringing up his ancestors in the recital,
but as he has done the same thing be-
fore several times, he was sentenced to
six months in the house of correction.
Three other drunks were also brought
up for violating the law. Daniel Leary
was sent to the state farm, James
Sheedy to the house Of correction for
four months, and Michael Dee was
