Expansion.

Philadelphia Record: 81 am per-
suaded," said President Madison-who
was, perhaps, the chief among our
constitution makers-''that no Consti-
tuition was ever so well calculated as
ours for extensive empire and self
government" Since Madison's time
the truth of his forecast has been tested
by experience. The area of the coun-
try has been extended from the At
lantic to the Pacific. A non-contigu-
GUS part of the Continent has been
added to our possessions. There has
been no failure on the part of our con-
stitution to adaptably stretch itself
over our expanding limits. 1t has
withstood the test of accommodation
to foreign territory acquired both by
purchase and conquest, and has not
failed us even in the stress Of civil
strife.
Looking back at the experiences Of
the past century in the absOrptiOns
which have increased the area of the
United States, from the 325,O ,O65 square
miles of the thirteen original States to
the 1902, 800 square miles now consti-
tuting the American Republic exclusive
of our lately acquired insular posses
sions, the most respondent anti.ex-
pansionist can put aside his fears and
take heart of hope. The further we
can push the benign operation of
our constitutional government the
better for ourselves and the better for
the people who are permitted to share
with us the benefits of selfgovern-
ment.
