And so, Americans died for the laws

followed the flag of the republic through
weary hours to the browning mercy OF
Appomattox. 1t was not a wild, unreg-
ulated impulse that took our volunteers
to San Juan and Santiago. They had
heard the deliberate pronouncement Of a
great nation, and they were there
Spartans of this late day-in obedience
to the laws. 1t is our mission as law
yers to do something more than try
cases. The highest fee we can ever re-

POLICY OF EXPANSION.

Some of US are doubtful as to the policy
called expansion, but who in the light
of existing conditions will call for con-

but if I were William Mckinley I
should keep what the army and navy
have won, and when the times comes I
should leave it to the American people
to determine what they would do. The
question is theirs, and does not belong
to any man or to any party.
But while great policies Of govern

going on with our lawsuits, vindicating
rights and redresSing wrongs. Dam

have their day, and as individuals we,
