Justice Harlan, of the United
States Supreme Court said of ex-
pansion: "There is nothing in
that valuable document (the u.
s. Constitution) which forbids
this country acquiring new terri
tory, either by treatJ or conquest
as long as there is an intention of
eventually incorporating it in our
own. Alaska has been in our
possession for 81 years and is not
state yet, and until the condi-
tons improve we shall hold it in
the same position, perhaps in the
indefinitely. After the Philip
pines have come into our possess
sion we shall govern them on the
same footing as a territory, and
when they demonstrate that they
are fit people to be incorporat-
ed into this Union, then they will
be admitted. If the course of
time shows that they never will be
far enough advanced to become
part of us, then it will be time for
US to trade them for some place
that will" ~

Canadian Premier, his Canadian
colleagues on the Anglo Ameri-

cans who favor reducing thu tar

In Washington, to provide for the
reduction as a part of the reci-
Procity clause of the treaty the
Commission hopes to negotiate.
The tip was given the Canadian
lumbermen and tho Americans
whose interests are identical to
gather in Washington. Repre-
sentative Tawney, who is one of
Mr.: Dingley's right hand men,
took charge of the fight in the ab-
sence OF his sick leader, the mo-
ment he learned what the other
side was trying to to do. The re-
suit was that when the Canadians
and lower duty Americans got to
Washington, instead OF having
everything their own way, as they
expected, they found themselves
confron ed by a delegation of the
ablest lumbermen in the country,
who had been invited to Washing
ton by Mr.. Tawney to assist him
in fighting for the retention of the

money enough for and had constructed
beautiful monument to the 600 Con-
federate dead buried at that place, and
the monument will be unveiled on Oct.

Senator Turley. On Christmas day,

various portions of Bedford county.
The remains of some 600 soldiers were
placed therein, representing each of
the Confederate States, but the major
ity of them are unknown. Each grave
