KEY TO PETTIGREW'S SPEECH
South Dakota Senator Makes n State
ment Regarding what He Said
nt WOOnsOckct, $. ID.

SIOUX FALLS, S. D., Oct. Ex-senator
Pettigrew, in an interview today regarding
the report sent out from Aberdeen concern
ing his speech at Woonsocket, said:
What | said in my speech was substan-
TALLY as follows: That President Mckinley
in his speeches in the west said that the
Philippine islands had been delivered into
our hands by the will of God and that God
had caused our flag to be raised there. In
view of the fact that the secretary of state
recently wrote letter to an Ohio congress-
man, evidently intended to be used to affect
the election in that state, in which he said
that we acquired no title to the Philippine
islands by conquest, that our claim rested
solely upon the purchase OF the islands from
Spain, and in view OF the fact that the presi-
dent had instructed our commissioners at
Paris to insist upon the cession Of these
islands to the United States; that if God had
anything to do with the transaction He must
have come to Mckinley in a vision, thus
making the president the latest of the proph
cts, and that in this way only could God be
responsible under the circumstances for our
claim of sovereignty.
Il said that | refused TO receive such mes
sages from God, transmitted through such
a source, and refused to recognize God who
would use such an implement as means
Of making His wishes known to us; that our
flag stood for principle for an idea. for
the doctrines of the Declaration Of 1nde-
pendonce, that it was emblematc of these
and when raised in violation of the ideas
fer which it stood and the principles which
made it dear to US, it was no longer our
flag and could only be restored to us by
pulling it down, and that blushed for shame
for my country's honor and wished | could
blot out the recent history We had made.

flag"

lmperialistic BOmbast.

Mart Patrie has stirred up a
large sized hornets nest by adj
dressing a semi-confdential letter
to his Silver Republican friends,
asking their views on the political
outlook for 1900, on National is
sues. Mart frankly admits, that
with his view Of the situation, he
expects to affiliate with the Re
publicans, The letter has called
forth some very ludicrous replies,
and has also been the cause of
caustic comment, especially from
the Democratic press, which
seems to consider that the Silver
Republican party is its "Meat"
with a big M. The Azalanche
believes that the letter is untime-
ly, and therefore ill-adviSed, 1t
is too early to anticipate with
certainty the paramount issue"
of 1900. Should the Filipino
war be settled within the next
few months, the issue of the COM
ing campaign may revert to the
struggle of 1896, in which case
the Silver Republicans will be
found battling for silver-follow-
ing the standard for which they
periodically gave up party ties,
and in many instances, lifelong
associations. On the other hand,
looking at the question in the
light set forth in Mr.. Patrie's let
ter and which, by the way, we
consider to be a fairminded and
logical. view we believe the Sill
yer Republicans, as generality,
will vote with the Republicans.
In other words, if the campaign
is fought on the lines of "for"
or "agin" the administrations war
policy, with the Democratic sill
yer plank buried under a deluge
of "imperialistic bombast," then,
in our estimation, the Silver Re-
publicans win line up for the hon
