Ratification of Treaty Does Not End
Fight Against Annexation.

LINCOLN. NEB.. February civilian
! BRYAN expressed no surprise over the
ratification Of the peace treaty ana COM
mented briefly on the matter.
When the Associated Press correspon-
dent asked him If the ratification of the
treaty would end the fight against the
annexation of the Philippines he said:
Not by any means. While many nave
thought that the fight should be made
against the treaty, | have felt that the
real fight is to be made for a resolution
declaring the national policy. The oppo-
sltion TO the treaty has served useful
nurpose. and the opponents Of the ratif-
cation made a gallant fight. but there
was never any chance Of defeating rati-
dcotion. Now that the treaty is out OF
tho way. II can be treated as domes-
tic question. and the line can be drawn
between those who believe In forcible an
nexation and those who believe that the
Filipinos should be allowed 10 govern
Themselves. | have not lost faith In the
doctrine of self-goverument, and believe
that the people will repudiate the imperi-
alistic policy"
