of our armies in the eastern and west
ern Indies, and we appreciate their
faithful cooperation in all works of
education and industry.
President Mckinley has conducted
the foreign affairs of the United States
with stinguished credit to the
American people. In releasing us from
the vexations of European alliance
for the government OF Samoa his
course is especially to be commended.
By securing to our undivided control
the most important island of the
Samoan group and the best harbor in
the southern Pacific, every American
interest has been safeguarded.
We commend the part taken by our
government in the peace conference
at The Hague. We assert our stead
fast adherence to the policy announced
in the Monroe doctrine. The provis-
ions of The Hague convention were
wisely regarded when President Nc
Kinley rendered his friendly offic es in
the interest of peace between Great
Britain and the South African repub-
lies.
In accepting by the treaty of Paris
the just responsibility of our victories
in the Spanish war the president and
the senate won the undoubted APP
prevail of the American people. No
other course was possible than to
destroy Spain's sovereignty through
out the West Indies and in the Philip
pine Islands. That course created
our responsibility before the world
and with the unorganized population
whom our intervention had freed from
Spain to provide for the mainten nance
of law and order and for the estab-
lishment of good government and for
the performance of interna tional
obligations. Our authority could not
be less than our responsibility and
wherever sovereign rights were eX-
tended it became the high duty of the
to put down armed insurrection and
to confer the blessings Of liberty and
civilization upon all the rescued peo-
plies. The largest measure OF self
government consistent with their
welfare, and our duties shall be secur-
ed to them by law. To Cuba indie
pendence and self government were
assured in the same voice by which
war was declared, and to the letter
this pledge shall be performed.
We approve of the annexation of
the Hawaiian islands to the United
States.
The republican party upon It's his
tory and upon this declaration Of its
policies confidently iAvokes the con
siderate and approving judgment Of
the American people.

The country is now justified in expect

We favor the construction, owner
ship, control and protection of an
isthmian canal by the government of
the United States. New markets are
necessary for the increasing surplus
of our farm products. Every effort
should be made to open and obtain
new markets, especially in the Orient,
and the administration is warmly to
be commended for it's successful effort
to commit all trading and colonizing
nations to the policy of the open door
in China. In the interest of our eX-
banding commerce we recommend
that congress create department of
commerce and industry in charge of
secretary, with seat in the cabinet.
The United States consular system
should be reorganized under the
supervision of this new department

tenure as will render it still more SER

STRAUB RETURNS HOME,
Expresses Surprise That Scandal
Had Grown Out of His Hav-
ing Been Robbed.

Theodore r. Straub, ex-teller Of the
Scranton Savings bank, returned to
the city yesterday, after having spent
his vacation in New York city. He
called at The Tribune office late in the
afternoon and asked that the state
ment published in another paper to
the effect that he had skipped" be
denied.
81 did not skip and had no occasion
to skip" Mr.. Straub said. 1T Is true
there was a shortage of $4,000 in the
banks accounts for which l was re-
sponsible, but every cent of it was
made good before l went on my vaca-
tion.
1T was not until my return to the
city this afternoon that received even
the first inkling of the fact that the
newspapers had printed anything
about the affair None of the stories
that l have seen agree and the only
practically correct story is that which
appeared in yesterdays Tribune. The
fact that Mr.. Shafer's own statements
or what are reputed to be his state
ments, are conflicting, constrains me
to interview him before making my
statement. He went out of town over
night, but l will endeavor to see him
in the morning. I will then make my
| statement"
Mr.. Straub insisted that the robbery
| story was not a creation of his to eX-
plain away apparent crookedness.
Various stories of a highly sensa.
tional nature concerning the affair are
being told. One of them is to the eff.
| feet that the defalcation is vastly
| greater than the highest figures ye
mentioned and that no small part o.
the shortage is due to Mr.. Straub hav
ing advanced large sums of money fol
personal favors, these moneys beinl
| given as loans on insecure notes.

cause, as he continued, they put me

strive for is worth more to me Than
the pecunary reward"
