ARaUMENr OF IMPERIALISM.

The principal arguments, however, adj
vanced by those who enter upon a defense
of Imperialism are:
First: That we must improve the pres

and enter into international politics.
Second: That our commercial interests

Third: That the spread of the Christian

been the over ~hadowing political fact of
the nineteenth century. 1t has made this
HdlIOH CONSPICUOUS among the nations ana
given it a place in history such as no other
nation has ever enjoyed. Nothing has been
able to check the onward march of this
idea. I am not willing that this nation
shall cast aside the omnipotent weapon of
truth to seize again the weapon of physical
warfare. I wou liz not exchange the glory
of this republic for the glory. of all the
empires that have risen and fallen since
time began.
The permanent chairman of the last re-
publican national convention presented tho
%pecuniary argument in all it's badness,
when he said: S
I'VE make no hypocritical pretenses of
being interested in the Philippines solely
on account of others. While we regard the
welfare of those as a sacred tyast, we re-
gard the welfare of the American people
first. We see . sur duty to ourselves as well
as to others. We believe in trade expan-
sion. BY every legitimate means within
the province Of government and constitu-
ton, we mean to stimulate the expansion
of our trade and open new markets."
This is the commercial argument It Is
based upon the theory that war can be
rightly waged for ~pecuniary advantage.
and that 1t In profitable to purchase trade
