PLATT ON EXPANSION.



Washington, Jan. 2S. - Mr.. Plat
(Conn.) has addressed the senate on ex-
pansion. He denied that expansion was
new thing in this country. He argued
tnat the trainers Of the constitution in
tended to devise a plan of government
and not to ordain policies. He said:
1t is true that we are a government of
united power, but the purpose Of the
limitation was simply to reserve to the
peoples of the states such ample power as
would enable them to determine their af.
fairs in their own way. such affairs, I
mean as were not also the affairs
81 the people OF other states, and 1t
was not the purpose of such Limitation to
nihder the federal government in provid-
ing as might seem best and wisest for the
general welfare Of the whole country.
Inc disorder now existing in the Phil
ippine Islands. to which senator's who
are opposing the treaty may we'll afford
70 consider how far they are contributing,
the unWlllingness of the armed natives to
accept American authority does not con-
stltute, In my mind, the slightest ground
on which to base vote against the Parts
agreement On the contrary, 1t affords a
new reason why our act on should be the
more prompt and unanimous.
No senator has had the hardihood to
suggest that we shall now return these
Islands to the Spanish government and
no other disposition Of them than that Is
inconsistent with a vote to confirm the
treaty. Imputations have been made here
upon the purpose of those who advocate
the assumption by the United States of
philippine sovereignty which can scarcely
pe genuine. All this talk about forcing
our government upon an unwilling people,
all this eloquent invocation of the spirit
OF the Declaration Of Independence, Is far
and away from any real point that con-
Germs the senate in this dscussion.
He explained why the Fiipinos might
misunderstood our motives, but said
there was no reason for an American
senator doing so. Americans, he said,
knew that in the wake Of American rule
would come liberty for the Filipinos.
He concluded:
Mr. President, do not know, and do
not think any one else can know. just
what ought to be done with the Philip
pine Islands beyond this-that we ought
as instantly as possible to complete the
withdrawal of their sovereignty from the
Kingdom of Spain and that we ought our
selves to assume Its obligations and pru-
IDENTIFY to discharge them until we have
had full opportunity in our own councils
to determine their best disposition. This
is all that the treaty of Paris proposes or
imposes. 1t is all that the administration
has at any time suggested 1t Is no more
than safe and conservative policy adj
vises. 1t is no less than our public obliga-
tons require. 1t is plain, clear, posi-
tive duty.

TO EXCLUDE ALIENS.
British Columbia Parliament Hits at
American Miners.


Washington, Jan. Ex-Governor John
E. Brady of Alaska. who is in Washing
ton, has received word of the enactment
of 81 law by the British Columbia par
lament providing for the exclusion of
aliens from the Atlin territory, which is
within British domain.
AS the Atlin goldfelds are expected
to bring out a rush of gold seekers in
the spring the action is regarded by the
governor as of great significance, and
he has urged the administration to have
steps taken that may either repeal the
exclusion of Americans as such or that
reta iatory measures be adopted.
Representation will first be made to
the british authorities of the injustice
the measure will work upon Americans.
Advices from Alaska announce that
the railroad over the White pass route
is completed to the summit of the pass
and will be completed to Lake Bennett
by June. The railroad force of 1,500
workmen has been transferred to the
other side of the summit, finishing the
30 mile stretch from there to the lake,
whence there is all all water route to
the Yukon.
