oas such difficulty an exchange tells
the following story: A freight train

track. The engineer did not like to
charge the brute. for fear Of an up
set, and several times reversed the
engine, in the vain hope that the els-
phant would take that as a sign Of
surrender, and retire. Finally the els-
phant backed into the engine, and set
ting its forsfset firmly between the
rails. endeavored to push the train
backward with its hindQuarters. The
engineer promptly put on all steam.

Origin of Term "Haleyon Days"

The term 'halcyon days" is derived
from a pretty little fable Of the Sicil-
ians, who believed that during the
seven days preceding aud following
the winter solstice, December 81, the
halcyon or kingfisher hoated on the
water In nest in which her young
were deposited and that during this
time Of her brooding the seas were
calm. Our Indian summer corresponds

the cessiOn Of the Philippine islands
10 the United States, the menace Of i'm
perialism became so apparent that
many preferred to reject the treaty
and risk the ills that might follow rath
er than take the chance of correcting
the errors Of the treaty by the inde
pendent action of this country.
L was among the number Of those
who believed it better to ratify the
treaty and end the war, release the vol
unteers, remove the excuse for war eX-
penditures. and then give to the Phil
1ppines the independence which might
be forced from Spain by new treaty.
In view of the criticism which my ac-
ton aroused In some quarters l take
this occasion to reState the reasons
given at that time. I thought it safer
to trust the American people to give
independence to the FilipinOs than to
trust the accomplishment of that pur-
pose to diplomacy with an unfriendly
nation. Lincoln embodied an argument
IN the question when he asked: Can
aliens make treaties easier than friends
can make laws?' l believe that we are
now in better position to wage sue
cessful contest against Imperialism
than we would have been had the
treaty been rejected. With the treaty
ratified, a clean cut issue is presented
between a government by consent and
government by force and imperial
lists must bear the responsibility for all
that happens until the question is set
tied. If the treaty had been rejected
the opponents of Imperialism would
have been held responsible for any in
ternatiOnal complications which might
have arisen before the ratification of
another treaty.
But whatever difference of opinion
may have existed as to the best meth.
cd of opposing the colonial policy there
never was any difference as to the
great Importance of the question, and
there is no difference now as to the
course to be pursued. The title Of
Spain being eXtinguished we were at
liberty to deal with the Filipinos ac-
cording to American principles. The
Bacon resolution, introduced a month
before hostilities broke out ut Manila,
promised independence to the Filipinos
on the same terms that it was promised
to the Cubans. l supported this reso-
luton and believe that its adoption
prior to the breaking out of hostilities
would have prevented bloodshed, and
that it's adoption at any subsequent
time would have ended hostilities.
