says Minnesota Man who HAS
Talked with Him.

Minneapolis, Mimi, June ss.-Gsorge
ii. Holden, who has just returned from
the Philippines, tells of talk with Ad-
inirai Dewey in Manila during which the
latter expressed expansionist convictions
of the strongest type. This admiral re-
qusssed Holden to give an opinion ON the
future course Of the government in the
islands and when his caller declared that
the American people could not afford to
Withdraw, thar they were building for
the future and not for the present and
that they owed 1T to the world to remain,
the admiral heartily approved of the
words.
Impress your visw upon your friends
and every American citizen" said
Dewey. Holden was asked by the admiral
to visit certain member Of the foreign
relations committee of the Senate and
urge him TO have a law passed extending
oitizsnship to the sixty Chinese boys who
participated in the battle of Manila bay.
They were good enough to fight for us,
and they are good enough to be American
citizens"
