I'VE cannot afford to enter upon a
colonial policy The theory upon which
Government is built is matter of
vital Importance The national idea has
been a controlling influence upon the
thought and character of the people. Our
national idea is self-government, and un-
less We are ready to abandon that idea
forever, We cannet ignore it in dealing
with the Filipinos.
THAT idea is entwined with our ira
ditions; it permeates our history, it is a
part of our literature.
THAT idea has given eloquence to the
orator and inspiration to the poet. Take
from our national hymns the three words
Free, Freedom and Liberty, and they
would be as meaningless as would be our
flag if robbed of its red. white and blue.
Other nations may dream of wars of
conquest and of distant dependencies
governed by exterior force; not so with
the United States.
THE fruits of Imperialism, be they bit
ter or sweet, must be left 70 the subjects
of monarchy. This is the one tree of
which the citizens of our republic may
not partake. It is the voice of the SER

THEY ENDORSE BUTLER
ONE CAMP OF CONfEOERATES APPREcI
ATES HIS PENSION AMENDMENT.
Carried Out, They Say, It Would Show the
Void that the War Between States
Was no Rebellion.

Washington, d. c., Jan. 17.-(Special.) }
Senator Butler received to-day the
first endorsement of his proposition to
pension Confederate soldiers, which he
has yet had. 1t came from camp of
Confederate veterans at Columbus. Ga,
who, writing him, argued that while
they don't want pensions as mendicants.
they believe that pensions should be
granted to ex-Confederates in response
TO the spirit manifested by the President
as showing to the world that the war
between the States was not a rebellion.
The letter was sent TO Senator Butler,
evidently with the thought that he was
General Butler, of South Carolina: for
it was so addressed. The Senator was
not able to get the petition read and
published in the record, as he hoped. bur
1t was long argument in favor, not
only of the decoration Of the graves, but
of the pensions as we'll
This is the first paper that has come
from Confederate veterans any where,
endorsing the Butler idea. There were
hfty-tive signers to the request that
Senator Butler do not abandon his bill.
Among other petitions and memorials
ON the same subject presented in the
Senate to-day were resolutions from
Vicksburg, Miss, Batesville Ark, and
Baltimore camps of Confederate veter-
ans; all Of them protesting against, not
only the pensions, but the Government
caring for the graves.
Judge Ewart is here looking after the
interests of his case, which he has be-
fore the Senate.
