BECAUSE IT IS WRONG
Bryan Denounces the English
Colonial System.
A GREAT MORAL QUESTION
Forcible Annexation Is Criminal Aggres-
sion-So Declared by Mckinley.
jefferson Was Against lit
Is Radically Wrong.

Springfield, ILL.,, Jan. 4.--William Jen-
nings Bryan arrived in Springfield at 4
o'clock this afternoon. He will leave
for Jacksonville, ILL.,, tomorrow and
will go to Cincinnati on Friday. AT s
o'clock he addressed an immense audi
ence in Central Music hall. being intro
duced by Congressman-elect Benjamin
F. Caldwell of this district.
Touching the question of annexation,
Mr.. Bryan said:
1.-THE party which was willing to OPP
pose the gold standard because it was
wrong ought to be great enough to OPP
pose an English colonial system because
it is wrong. 1t is astonishing that any
man living in this age of the world, liv-
ing in the United States, should uphold
the doctrines of securing land by con-
quest. Jefferson was against it long
years ago. Blaine was against it in 1890.
And a year ago last December the pres
ident of the United States sent a mes
sage to congress and in that message
he said:
"I speak not of forcible annexation
because that is not to be thought of; I'M
der our code of morality that would be
criminal aggression.
My friends there is great moral
question involved, declared so by your
president; a code of morality is in ques-
ton. and according to that CODE forci-
Bile annexation is criminal aggression.
Il say give independence to the peonle
of Cuba, not because we promised it to
them, but because they fought for it
and have right to it whether we prom
Used it or not Why cannot we apply
the same principle to the Philippines?
Why should we purchase title to the
Philippines from Spain? We declared
that Spain did not have any title to
Cuba. When l buy the Philippines I
want to deal directly with them and I
want to may more than $3.50 apiece for
them"

Coming to Montana.

Washington, Jan. 4.-The adiutant gen.
eral has telegraphed the commander of
the department of the Lakes, requesting
him to notify the war department imme-
dately as to which companies of the 7th
regiment would be assigned to the several
military posts among which they are to
be distributed. This information is de-
sired in order to advise the commanding
officers of the various posts of the arrival
of the attachments 50 that preparations
can be made for their reception. There
may be some delay in transferring sew
eral of the companies, as the department
prefers that the posts shall be vacated be-
fore the new garrisons arrive. One troop
of the It'll goes to Montana, but this is
the only one that returns to the noun

BRYAN AND FREE SILVER.
Illinois Democrats Declare for the Chi
cagO Platform,

Springfield, ILL.,, Jan. 4.-The demo-
cratic state central committee Tonight
declared itself for the Chicago platform
and for William ]. Bryan. Mr.. Bryan
was present and made an address
thanking the committee for the personal
compliment and congratulating the or
ganiZation for it's declaration in favor of
free coinage. The admission of resolu-
tons indorsing silver and Bryan by
unanimous vote was something of a
surprise, for it was expected several of
the committee with leanings toward the
gold standard would oppose any de-
claration in favor of the platform of
1896.
c. X. Ladd, proxy for Ben T. Gable,
who is generally regarded as a strong
anti-silver man, voted with the major
ity and stated that he did so at the re-
quest of Mr.. Gable. Aside from the de-
claration of party policy, the meeting of
the committee was of interest because
of the contest concerning it's organiza-
ton between the Mayor Harrison and
Ex-Governor Altgeld factions. The Har-
rison men elected their candidate, DR..
Walter Watson of Mount Vernon be-
ing chosen state chairman.

French influence during the past year,
gives curious and interesting details as to
the Franco Russian treaty negotiations at
st. Petersburg. He says:
''The first article of the draft of the
treaty declared that 1t had not for its OBJ
ject a modification of any of the Euro
pean territorial statu quo. NJ. HanotauX
refused to countersign such a treaty, he
claiming that it was a repetition of the
Frankfort treaty. Count Muravieff re-
sponded: You will never induce the car
to sign a revenge treaty. Neither M.
Hanotaux nor Count Muravief would
yield. The problem seemed insoluble
when Count Muravieff had a conference
with President Faure who yielded, adj
hitting that it was very undesirable to
have such an article, but that. on the 9TH
er hand. it would be impossible for him
to return to France without a treaty.
Accordingly, the treaty was signed, Count
Muravieff having declared that Emperor
Nicholas would not hesitate to fight for
France if she were unjustly attacked by
anybody, but would not intervene in
mere war of revenge"

VALUABLE GIFTS.
Chicago University Receives $4O3, 900 in
Land and Cash.

Chicago, Jan. 4.-President Harper of
the Chicago university tonight at the
9th convocation of the university an
nounced that gifts aggregating 100000
had been made to the institution. Mar
tin A. Reyerson, president of the board
of trustees, donated a tract of land adj
joining that now occupied by the uni
verGity. The value of this land is S34,-
900. John D. Rockefeller had promis-
ed to duplicate the gift in cash, thus
making $6S,000. Marshall Field of this
city gave a tract of land adjoining that
given by Mr. Reyerson and which has
been used by the university as an ath-
letic field. The value of this land is
estimated at $125000. Mr.. Rockefeller
agreed that when this was given to the
school he would give 100000 for the
building of gymnasium and the equip
ment of the athletic grounds. The uni

An Americans Opinion.

London, Jan. 4.--The Daily Chronicle
this morning quotes the opinion of an
American now in China, who has re-
Gently toured in Siberia, Mongolia and
Manchuria, as to American relations
with Russia and Great Britain. He is
represented as saying:
THE United States has nothing to
fear from Russia and nothing to gain
by helping England in the common war.
AS soon as Russia's railroad schemes
are completed they will Russianize and
develop a country whose mineral wealth
is unlimited. England's only hope is to
organize the Chinese into large army
to oppose Russia. This may mean war,
but better war now than so years
hence"
