AGUINALDO'S ENJOYS
REACH WASHING ron

WASHINGTON, Jan. 22-Dr. Jose
Lozada, Senor Juan Luna and Captain
Marti Burgos, representatives of Agui-
naldo, commissioned by him to come to
the United States and aid in the es-
tablishment of Filipino Junta, of
which Agoncillo is to be the head, ar
rived IN Washington yesterday. All
three are natives of Manila, educated in
Europe, and represent the best element
of FiIipinos. Concerning their mission
to Washington, DR.. LoZada says:
I'VE have come here as representa-
tives of the Philippine government, of
which General Emilio Aguinaldo, the
great patriot and statesman, is presi-
dent. We are here under sealed orders
to Senior Agoncillo, who is ambassador
and Plenipotentiary to the United
States. We will place ourselves under
his direction, for the single purpose of
securing the recognition of the Philip
pine government by the United States.
How such recognition viii be brought
about of course I am not at present
able to state, although we have out
lined a plan of action and viii begin
work at once; always, of course, in a
diplomatic manner. Much will depend,
of course, upon the ratification or re-
lection of the peace treaty now before
your Senate, or its possible amendment.
AS yet the American Government has
not defined its policy toward the Phil
ippine Islands, but it is our aim to Sc
cure absolute independence"

horizon Of the whole human race. Shall
this country step down from the high
emlnence which she has attained in the
family of nations in the matter of i'm
perialism? When we are asked to take
this step 1t is but natural that we ask it's
promulgatorS to unravel their pretenses,
ana when we do SO we find them advocat-
ing contradictory arguments. The ques-
uon or Imperialism and expansion, boiled
uoWn 10 It's true import, is dangerous
policy to either adopt or pursue. The
lmpeIlaIlStS tell you that trade follows
the nag, when, in fact, every American
knows that the opposite is the case. 1t
is the flag that follows trade. Is it part
or the principles of our free and inde-
pendent Government to proceed to civ
llize weaker people by first shooting and
then robbing them? We shrink from the
responsibility imposed upon us by destiny,
and when we fail to be convinced of this
appeal TO destiny we are charged with be-
ing un-American. This child of destiny
Is new growth in this country, but in
praVity.
No nation, particularly the American
nation, can have citizen soldiery and
mercenary army. 1t is against the faith
Of Washington and the signers of the Dec
iaration of Independence The imperial
ISIS or to-day would have you believe that
Washington and the trainers of the con-
stltution descended on the Capitol at
washington and played havoc with the
nation and were, of course, decidedly un-
American.
With regard to the Philippines. If we
are to become barbarous, let US excel in
our barbarity, as we have excelled in our
civilization, all the other nations of the
world. Let us not substitute the weight
OF cannon balls for moral integrity and
support. confess I am in favor Of ex-
pansion If it is meant in the right direc-
uon. In this case everything depends son
what is meant by the right direction. If
we want expansion, why, here to the
north of us lies a country which is
natural part of US. Why not annex
Canada? I'd be delighted to see that line
of custom houses beyond our border
blown into the Great Lakes and our line
of territory to the north of US extended
to Baffin Bay. Deeply as l desire anneXa-
tion with Canada, l would not have it by
force of arms. The histories of Alsace
and Lorraine and England's treatment of
Ireland but too well illustrate the foolish
ness of annexation by force and coercion.
Now, if England likes us as she claims
she does, let her convince Canadians that
their true destiny is with US.

Mccarthy nipped off a single and stole
second. Meaney followed with another
single and both tailed when Mclaughlin
touched off another. Nice batting that.
The locals could not hold their lead,
though, for Seattle made a brace in it's
half of that inning. Anderson was safe
on McLaughlin's tumble and went to
third on Reilly's single. Lohman threw
wide to second to catch Reilly, letting
Anderson in ahead of the ball. Reilly
kept on to third and again Lohman shot
wide and Josh completed the circuit
After that Kleiber and Hartman singled,

PROTEST AGAINST THE

MUNICH, Jan. 22.-The Nueste Mach
richten, which raised a storm of in
dignation among the ultra-patriotic
papers by limiting that German doings
in the Philippines were largely respon-
sible for the delicate relations between
the United States and Germany and
that as the German Foreign Office
knew nothing of them it would be ad
visable to institute an investigation
with a view of avoiding the recurrence
of such mistakes, makes the following
announcement to-day:
THE Americans here have decided to
send TO the Washington Government a
protest against the anti-German eI-
pressions used in the House Of Repre-
sentatives, and a declaration that no
animosity against America exists in
Germany, where Americans always
meet with the most friendly reception" d"

took a great interest in the contest
and many substantial wagers fol-

was stipulated that the winner was
to pay for a French dinner for the
crowd, and in the case of a fluke
the stakes were to go for the same
purpose.
A decidedly representative crowd
from the CuStom-house visited the
Olympic Club grounds yesterday
afternoon, armed with cameras and
anxiety to witness the important
event. The principals arrived late
and were noticeably nervous. Later
they emerged from the dressing
