Are they not in possession of their own
land; their own homes? Are they
guilty of any crime except of love of
home and country? Having worn the
Spanish yoke so long do you wonder at

and burn their homes because God AL

to their lips the sweet song of liberty?

POSTMASTER GENERALS VIEW.
What He Thinks of the Situation as to the
Philippines.

| Philadelphia. Jan. IL. - Postmaster
General Emory Smith addressed the
Contemporary club last night on The
Future Of American Foreign Politics"
his speech was an eloquent indorse-
| nent of the expansion policy. Heargued
hat this country has precisely the same
right to acquire islands in the Pacific
chat belongs to every other nation, and
that in doing so we do not trespass
upon any others province or transgress
any just rule of conduct The Monroe
doctrine is not affected, declared the
speaker, adding: We are in the Phil
ippines. and there we shall stay if the
deliberate Judgment of the American
people deems it best; we have upheld
the Monroe doctrine for three-quar-
ters of a century and we shall continue
to uphold it for all time TO come. Its
vitality and validity have rested On our
determine ton to maintain it and upon
the unwillingness of any Europs an pow
ar to come into conflict with us over it,
and it will be just as vital and valid
with the same life blood of efficacy in
the future as in the past"
The postmaster general said the diff
culties raised by opponents of the policy
are artificial; not inherent in the tua-
ton, but created by theories. Continu-
ing. he said: Nothing could be more
illogical than to say that our flag should
not remain in the Philippines because
the people are untitled to come under
American control, and then to say that
we ought not TO undertake to control
them because they are entitled to self
government. How can they be untitled
for American rule and yet fitted to rue
themselves? If American rule remains
they Will have practical self govern
ment.
What alternative was practicable?
To turn the Philippines back to Spain
would have reopened bloody revolution
and shocked mankind. No opponent of
expansion has been brave enough to
propose such action. To turn them over
to any other power would have invoked
Jealous protest and precipitated inevita-
BILE conflict among great European ma
tions. besides exceeding any possible
right or warrant on our part. To hand
them over to the Philippines would have
been to Gnchain the forces of anarchy
and open the door to the strongest
mailed hand from outside. There are
able men who question the treaty and
oppose expansion. but where is the |
critic or the objector who offers any |
other distinct and defnite-not to say
and tenable-solution of the |
problem we had before us"
