one year been discussing imperialism
and l tried TO distinguish between
such extension OF the nations linee
and limits az would not change
the character OF the government, and ex-
pansion which converts a homogeneous
republic into heterogeneous empire.
When annexation of any given territory
Is under consideration. the question Is,
frst, whether the people want to come
in; second whether the pc ople are cspa
ble OF sharing in the government and
destiny OF the nation. believe all peo-
pie are capable OF governing themselves,
and the Filipinos should be allowed to
govern themselves, but | do not think
they are sufficiently advanced to
share with us In the government
OF the nation. II the Philippine
islands are annexed the people there
must either be citizens OF subjects. | am
not willing to admit them as citizens
and do not believe the republic can have
them as subjects, therefore want this
nation to give them Independence, and
then protect them from outside interfer-
ence. Zach proposed annexation must
be considered upon its own merits. But
In considering these merits, the condi-
tion Of the people should have more
weight than geographical position or
commercial advantage"

body OF the British people, who were. In
his opinion. victims Of gigantic bunco
game. and had been led into war by the
politicians and demsgogues OF Great
Britain. "It seemed to be the rule Of Eng
lish warfare" he said, never to attack
anybody with clothes on, never strike
anybody unless he was down. and never
to hit above the belt. save when that was
the only vulnerable point. In dealing
with the Dutch, Great Britain broke
every pledge made to them. The truth
is that the British want their land and
must have Tito make possible the scheme
Of Rhodes and Chamberlain for united
British South Africa"
