THE SWORD
Snatched From the Hand of Spain
md welded by Americn

and Welded by America.
At the Jefferson Day banquet of the
Democratic club, Brooklyn, letter of
regret from Ex-Governor Boies, Of
Iowa, was read, as follows
81 am sorry it is impossible for me
to attend the Jefferson banquet.
"The war with Spain was reafIirm-
ance Of the principle underlying our
own form of government, that found
expression in a loyal declaration by
united people that Cuba should Of
right be free. No nation on earth ever
championed a nobler cause.
"The end came. The grip of tyrant
had been broken. Spain was at our
feet, Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philip
pines at our disposal. 1t needed but
simple demand from us to make them
forever free. But here we halted. A
word that would have made the name
of America immortal was never spoken.
Greed took the place of charity and
usurped the throne of justice. We
wanted an excuse for exploiting the
Philippines, and made a voluntary do
nation of s2O,000,000 of gold to Spain
to find it. What followed? l wish to
God we could blot from the annals of
our race this page of American history
as it mus be written and go shame
faced, as it will, through all the ages
to come.
''The truth is, we have simply chang
ed places with Spain and snatched
from her palsied nand the sword she
could no longer WELD and turned it
against a race she had become power
less further to oppress.
Look at the little island of Porto
Rico, that welcomed us as deliverers
from an oppressor's hand. What do
we find? A people denied the most
valuable privileges they enjoyed under
q despotism that furnished our only
excuse for war; a race OF vassals with
out q right we are bound to respect
foreigners, in fact, who cannot enter
our gates without paying tribute on the
products of their toll or take unincum-
bered from our hands that which their
needs require-yet our subjects in
name, over whom the American flag
is to float forever, to be ruled as our
lordly will may determine.
with unseemly haste a Republican
congress and Republican president
struck from the statutes of their coun-
try a tariff tax framed for revenue,
the only purpose for which taxes can
rightly be laid, and built in its place a
huge wall in front of every port of the
nation, in the shadows OF which an in
famous brood of life sucking trusts
have been nursed, until there is scarce
ly a manufactured necessity of life the
market price of which to American
consumers is not fixed by the greed of
some giant corporation. We are at
the threshold of another national cam
paign. The issues upon which 1t is
to be fought will be made by the Dem
ocratic party. What shall they be?
Anti-imperiallsm, anti-monopoly and
death to trusts"

SPAIN'S CLAIM IS DENIED.
America VIII Not COncede Her Rights
to Islands In Philippine Group.

WAsMSGToN, April Il. - Secretary
Hay has formally notified the Madrid
government that the United States can-
not accede TO its claim that Sibutu
island and CaSayan Sulu, Of the Philip
pine archipelago, belong TO Spain.
This action was taken in the light Of in
formation in the possession Of the Gu-
thorities showing that Germany is TAX
ing deep interest III the controversy.
IL is likely that the Spanish governments
will endeavOr TO answer the American
note, and perhaps, will go 80 far as 70
suggest arbitration Of the claim.
II is appreciated by the administration
that the only reason why Spain desires
70 obtain possession Of the island IL 70
sell them 10 third power, probably
Germany. which bought all the islands
in the far cast not acquired by che
United States.
For stHtegcal reasons l. Is desirable
that these islands should remain the
