The Liberty Congress of Anti
Imperialists adopted resolutions at
indianapolis in which the follow ing
recommendation were made;
81. That, without regard to
their views on minor questions of
domestic policy, they withhold their
votes from MIR. Mckinley in order
to stamp with their disapproval
what he has done.
&c. That they vote for those
candidates for congress i'll their re
spective districts who will oppose
the policy of Imperialism.
GO. While we welcome any
other method of opposing the re
election of Mr.. Mckinley, we adj
wise direct support of Mr.: Bryan as
the most effective means of crushing
imperialism.
ave are convinced of Mr.. Bryan's
sincerity and of his earnest purpose
to secure to the Filipinos their indie
pendence. His position and the
declaration contained in the plat
form of his party on the vital issue
of the campaign meet our unquali-
fled approval.
1--WE recommend that the execu-
tive committee of the American
Anti Imperialist league and its allied
leagues continue and extend their
organization, preserving the indie
pendence of the movement; and
that we take the most active part in
the pending political compaign.
at ntil now the policy which has
turned the Filipinos from warm
friends 10 bitter enemies, which has
slaughtered thousands of them and
laid waste their country, has been
the policy of the president. After
the next election it becomes the pol
icy of every man who votes to re-
elect him and who thus becomes
with him responsible for every drop
of blood thereafter she'd"
| These resolutions were almost
unanimously adopted, only fifteen
votes being recorded against their
adoption out of total of over 6oo
delegates. The Liberty congress
was made up almost entirely of re-
publicans and democrats who voted
for Mckinley four years ago
Their determined stand for Bryan
this year will doubtless insure hi:
election.

notice. 1t is the republican policy that
combines or trusts may be either good
or bad. If there is division in the re-
suits of cooperation for good or evil,
the preacher did not mention it, for the
discourse apparently connected the divi-
sion and bridged the stream between
the good and bad. AS sequel to this
sermon, it would be we'll to have one on
the subject of dislntegrstion, as also
one of Gods laws, as exhibited In ma
ture, in government, in church, etc,

that; we are unwilling that our
boys should be enlisted by conscrip-
ton, as is the case of Europeon
countries III their mad race for world
power at the point of the bayonet.
Shall we, after reck oning the awful
cost, vote to enter that race for the
pompous glory of chieftains?
Our civilians find their cross hard
enough to bear in sustaining them
selves and their families without
voting to sustain soldiers who pro
duce nothing, and fighting to force
arbitrary government upon liberty
loving islanders, can achieve naught
that the noblest impulses of Amer
leans will approve. We are ever
ready to defend our Liberties and we
are proud to send our boys to the
front for so patriotic purpose, but
we deprecate policy that take,
them to the front for the purpose Of
hueing down people struggling
for liberty and for no other purpose
than the qualification of ruler who
puts his despotic ambition above the
welfare of a great nation of people
and above the rights of struggling
humanity in the far off islands Of
the Asiatic seas.

In "John Sherman's Recollec-
TONS" volume ?, page I,216, the
reader will find the following :
"The events of the future are be-
yond the vision OF mankind, but |
hope our people will be content
with internal growth and avoid the
complications of foreign acquisitions.
Our family of states is already large
enough to create embarrassment in
the senate, and republic should
not hold dependent provinces or
possessions. Every new acquisition
will create endorsements. Can
ada and New Mexico as independ-
ent republics will be more valuable
to the United States than if carved
into additional states. The union
already embraces discordant ele-
ments enough without adding 9th
ers. If my life is prolonged l will
do all | can to add to the strength
and prosperity of the United States,
but nothing to extend its limits or
to add new dangers by acquisition
of foreign territory"

In view of the testimony, it is not
surprising that the Georgetown jury
declared Caleb Powers guilty of
participation in the conspiracy to
assassinate William Goeble at a
time when his right to the govern
orship was in dispute.
The evidence established three
things clearly:
First-The assassination of Goe-
bel.
Second-That there was con-
spiracy to murder him for the pur-
pose of preventing him from filling
the office to which he was elected,
as courts of competent jurisdiction
subsequently held.
Third-That Caleb Powers was
an active participant in that conspir-
acy.
Witnesses, members of the same
party to which Mr.. Powers belongs,
testified as to the conspiracy and
made it clear that Powers, with
Taylor and Finley who are now
fugatives from justice in Indiana by
the grace of our governor, was the
chief promoter of the armed band
of mountaineers summoned to
Frankfort not only to remove Goe-
bel but sufficient number of dem
ocratic members of the Legislature
to give the republicans control OF
that body and incidentally the state
offices.
1t was clearly proven by the evi-
dence that it was the purpose Of
Powers, Finley and Taylor to holc
their offices by foul means, and real
izing that they had no standing il
court, they inaugurated the cam
paign of murder from the office Of
the secretary of state, then occupied
by the condemned man.
1t was never the intention OF
Powers and the others to give W
the offices at Frankfort without
bloodshed. That they intended tC
hold on by force is not only amply
proved by other evidence, but also
by the fact that they did hold or
by force, after the murder and after
the decision against them by the
final tribunal appointed by the con
stitution and the laws to decide con
tested elections.
We ale not so much interested IL
who shall hold the offices in X zen
lucky as we are inter ested in thu
punishment of the men who sough
TO secure themselves in office b,
promoting the cowardly murder o
