THE anti-lmperialists, mistakenly
so called, for the reason that there
is no such thing in this country to
"auti" as an imperial policy. present
or prospective, are responsible for the
continuation of the war in the Philip
ines and the needless sacrifice OF the
lives of many brave Americans.
When the islanders were ready to
WELD word came from the "antis"
that III the election Of next year Nc
Kinley would be turued down and a
party put in power that would with
draw our troops from the islands.
This has encouraged the followers OF
Aguinaldo to hold on in spite of the
hopelessness of their cause, in the
hope of a change Of policy on the
part of the American government.
1t is hard to understand how Ameri-
can citizens can assume such and at
titude at such time tor the sake of
party advantages, but the same
thing has occurred before in our his
tory. The question involved is not a
party question III any sense, but
national one; a question of uphold
ing national authority in time OF
war, and those who take up the role
of obstructionists will inevitably be
ground to powder.
