SENATOR HOAR,S LATEST.

Senator Hoar has again broken
loose on Imperialism. This is his
latest utterance on the vital subject
Of Republic against Empire.
Il differ from the President and
many of my friends. / think great
mistake has been made by the coun
try and the Republican party. When
now they say to me that the Philip
pine Islands are ours, l must say that
the Philippine Islands belong to tie
Philippine people. say that the
people are entitled to such govern
ment as they desire When anybody
tells me that you should not haul
down the American flag, ! say that
you have just hauled it down in Pekin,
and that you are going to haul it down
in Cuba. There is one thing more
sacred than the flag, and that is the
sacramental wine, emblematic of the
blood shed for mankind, and the man
who would use the American flag in
order to retain possession of land
and it's people would for the same
reason use the sacramental wine for a
debauch."
