THE WEST AND EXPANSION.
Popularity of Philippine Annexation
Among Western People.
Denver Republican (Silyer)l

The West stands for the policy of ex-
pausOn because it recognizes the great
ness and is willing to bear its share of
the responsibilities of the nation as a
world power.
Men Of the West appreciate that the
United States Of to day extending from
ocean to ocean and inhabited by seventy
five millions Of people, Is not the coun-
try of a hundred years ago. Then the
Thirteen colonies, frDging the Atlantic
Coast and trembling lest they might be
deprived of their newly-acquired indie
pendence were wise in adopting a policy
of isolation and nOn-interierence. But
with increasing strength came wider OPP
portunites and greater responsibilities.
BY the Louisiana purchase Jefferson
opened before the young republic
career of national greatness surprising
that Of any other power in history. The
West in reaping the fruits appreciates
the wisdom of that policy, perfected as
it was by the admission of Texas and
the annexation Of the territory acquired
from Mexico.
No spirit of imperialism finds lodgnent
in the hearts Of the people Of the West.
They favor the policy Of expansion be-
cause it is the policy of national develop
ment and growth. But they desire to
establish no imperial government, no
despotc rule. in any possession which
may be brought under the protection OF
the American flag. Wherever the flag
floats, there liberty and free government
must prevail.
What more than all else expansion
means to the people of the West is the
new place to which, under it, the ma
ton, has attained in relation to the re-
mainder of the world. BY the defeat
of Spain the United States cast aside the
policy of isolation. The victories of
Manila Bay and off the coast Of San
tiago awakened the courts of Europe to
knowledge of the fact that a great power
had arisen in the new world and now
there is not stateman of the continent
unwilling to listen to American demands
whether in relation to new world affairs
or TO these that pertain to the Orient.
With this recognition Of Americas
greater power new responsibilities have
come, and it l. for the full discharge of
these that the people of the West stand.
They entertain none of that sentiment
existing in some parts Of the East which
would shirk responsibility for the sake
of avoiding the labor and expense which
it may involve. Neither have they any
fear of the consequences to the Repub-
lie for they know that the discharge of
duty abroad involves no neglect Of OBJ
legations at home. They know that to
extend the boundaries of liberty and en-
large the scope Of free institutions can
neither impair the one nor put in
jeopardy the other.

A FiendiSh Attack.

An attack was lately made on G. F. Col
her, Of Cherokee, Iowa, that nearly proved
fatal. 1t came through his kidneys. His
back got so lame he could not stoop with

propped by cushions. No remedy helped
him until he tried Electric Biiters which
effected such a wonderful change that he
writes he feels like a new man. This mar

SNODGRASS IN THE WRONG PARTY.
New York sun.

New 1Ork sun
The chief justice Of the supreme court Of
Tennessee calls himself a Democrat. He
calls himself Bryan Democrat. He sat
down at the banquet table Of the w. j.
Bryan Anniversary Club Of Chattanooga
on Monday night to celebrate the birthday
of his party's leader. Later in the evening
the man in question, Chief Justice Snod-
grass, arose to utter these sentiments
"The retention Of the Philippine islands
l. practically settled. There will never be
an issue about it. There is no doubt Of
our retaining them.
"To succeed We must present living, az.
gressIve ISSUES, not dead negatives of OBJ
lection.
1--WE [the Democracy have gone before
the people biennialy and preached relief
by professions in favor Of tinkering with
the tariff and amending the Ten Com
mandmenls.
Let Us ofer them something broad
and hopeful, the addition Of great terri
tory, the freedom Of ii great body Of peo-
pie, the ext, nsion Of our trade, and the
upbuilding Of all business.
"Let US 20 before them 90 show that we
will soon cause every !rJgraut breeze that
blows over these distant island. of the Pa
cilc to be laden with the hum Of American
industries, the music of American cyiiza-
ton, and the shouts OF American freedom.
"I.et lis teach the world new lesson in
national enlargement, prosperity and
power for the advancement Of human
Liberty
Perhaps the chief justice of Tennessee
thinks that he is a Bryan Democrat, but
he is not. He is an American Of the type
which will share and control American
policy in the prosperlty-iaden years that
are 20 come.

WHAT PROTECTION HAS DONE.
Utica Herald (Rep.)I

Utica Herald (Rep)l
When the Republican party came into
power, in 1861, United States exports OF
manufactures barely reached a value Of
$40 ,OOO, coo. The value Of our manufac-
lures sent abroad the present fiscal year Is
at S4OO, 100000. The Republi-
can system of protection made this great
growth possible. 1t enabled the founding
of industries for whose products we prevl-
ously had sent abroad. Besides supplying
the American market-the best i'll the
yorId-our mines and mills and factories,
and locomotive works and bridge works
and electrical works are pushing their sur
plus outputs into the markets of the world,
which protection opens instead of closing
as our Democratic friends have claimed.
