OF nation by way Of colonial establish
ment. l look upon the proposal of the
Republican party to Hold the people Of
the Philippine islands in permanent sub

of the constitution of the United States
as treason against American institutions
and l deem it of the greatest Importance
that this attempt toward a colonial sys-

Of an increased standing army and mill
tarism and the corruption that every
where follows such a condition of things,
shall now be checked and condemned
''It is true that the Republicans say
But we have the title to- the Philippines
by treaty, and what are you going to do
about it?' My answer is that what we
shall do about it is a practical question,
that the rape perpetrated by the So
called Paris treaty must not be Con-
doned; that whatever faults, whatever
great national wrong and sin against
republican institutions was then COM
mitted must be righted, and that it can
not be righted by the party that perpet-
trated and supported it; that it must be
righted by the party that faces the other

cans will support the party that pro-
poses to bring the nation back to true

Democrats in this campaign and working
as ardently for the defeat of Mr.. McKin-

take occasion as soon as have time to
make a public speech to elaborate my
views upon the question:
Democratic leaders at state and national
headquarters were greatly elated yester-
day when informed that Mr.. Moran had
come out for the Democratic ticket. Mr.
Moran is forcible speaker and it is be-
lieved his support Of Bryan in Illinois
will have a telling effect upon the Demo-
cratic vote in Illinois.
Ex-Judge Moran is reputed to be one
of the ablest lawyers in the West. He
has served on the circuit and appellate
benches in Chicago, and was the youngest
judge ever electeA to the circuit bench
He always has taken an interest in ma
tional politics and his declaration for
Bryan is said to be a political weather
vane on the so-called gold Democratic
vote of Chicago and Illinois.
