The expansion policy is a war policy.
The Christian people of the world
should oppose anything that works a.
gainst the peace of the world, ss this
policy will and always has. There was
time when the United States had TO
reach out in its own continent in order
to secure the natural territory for such a
government as We desired to establieh,
and We should devote our effort at dey
elopment OF our now large and exten-
sive country, without adding undesir-
able territory that mesns continual con
tention, the avoidance Of which should
be the aim of all counties.

Tie beet sugar bill is dead, as it ought
to be. Such gratis should always be
knocked in the head. One of the argu-

is probably not true, but IN any eventit
is q matter that has nothing 10 do with
the province of G state in such legis,at.
ion. 1t is the business Of a state as q
government to provide for the proper
summing of the machinery Of govern
ment. 1t is the business OF the people
