Extension of Republics Influence

We are not opposed to territorial ex-
 pansion when it takes in desirable terri
 tory, which can be erected into states in
 the Union and whose people are willing and fit to become American citizens.
 We favor trade expansion by every peaceful and legitimate means. But we are unalterably opposed to the seizing or purchasing of distant islands to be govern ed outside the constitution and whose peo- pie can never become citizens.
 We are in favor of extending the re- publics influence among the nations, but believe that influence should be extended not by force and violence but through the persuasive power of a high and honorable example. The importance of other ques- tions now pending before the American people is in no wise diminished and the Democratic party takes no backward step from its position on them, but the burning issue Of imperialism growing out of the
 Spanish war involves the very existence
 of the republic and the destruction of our
 free institutions. We regard it as the
 paramount issue of the campaign
 Monroe Doctrine
 "The declaration in the Republican plat form adopted at the Philadelphia Conven- tion held in June 1900, that the Republican party steadfastly adheres to the policy an- nounced in the Monroe doctrne is mani feStly insincere and deceptive. This pro- fession is contradicted by the avowed policy of that party in opposition to the spirit of the Monroe doctrine to acquire and hold sovereignty over large areas of
 territory and large numbers of peoples in
 the Eastern Hemisphere.
 We insist the strict maintenance of the Monroe doctrine and in all its integrity
 both in letter and in spirit as necessary
 to prevent the extension of European au- thority on this Continent and essential to
 our supremacy in American affairs. At the same time we declare that no American people shall ever be held by force in un- willing subjection to European authority. M itarism
 "We oppose militarism. It means con quest abroad and intimidation and op- pression at home. It means the strong army which has ever been fatal to free in- stitutions.- It is what millions of our citi- zens have fled from in Europe. It will inn pose upon our liberty loving people large standing army, an unnecessary burden of taxation, and a constant menace to their liberties. A small standing army and a well disciplined state militia are amply sufficient in time of peace. This republic has no place for a vast military service
 and conscription. When the nation Is in
 danger the volunteer soldier is his coun-
 try's best defender The national guard of
