This evening closes the most memorable year
OF this generation Between May l. 1898, and
tonight events have occurred which are chang
ing the policies of the nations and swinging
portals wide open to the progress of truth.
National expansion is inevitable; it is thrust
upon US Inc Philippines are ours as part of
the victory of war. The hands do not move
backward upon the dial. 1t would have been
cowardly to leave the islands in the palsied grip
of Spain, and 1t would be cruel to leave them
to semi-savage sef-government: and 1t would
be puerile to refuse to bear the obligations
which their retention will impose upon
a people.
To take these islands and Christianize and
civiize them is our response to to refrain of
the ages. Westward. no. the star of empire
takes It's way!''
Deweys victory, which is to be celebrated to-
morrow, has also brought new and imposing
opportunities to the church. The church to
carry the pure gospel and teachings of Christ

of the Philippine Islands is indescribable

1t is the church's duty to go promptly into
these our new possessions, because here for
several hundred years has been exemplifed the
fact that a Christian civilization without our
Christ does not civilize. And If avaricious and
greedy are not preceded and followed by
Christian workers 1t would be better for the
Filipinos TO relapse into paganism.
