years doctors pronounced it a local disease,

EXPANSION.

! a
lfest Destiny was the watchword
OF American progress. Expansion
was in the air, and In fact was the
very breath of the American peo-
pie. From that day to this sex
pans1ono has animated our most
progressive statesmen. and we
might as we'll try to stop the flow
of Niagara as to try to stop the
growth, grandeur and mighty
forces OF America. In American
veins flows the masteriul blood OF
histosy--English, Scotch, Irish,
German, French and Scandlna-
vlan-natlon builders all, rugged
as the heather covered granite
hills of the highlands, gentle as
the green wales Of Killarney, dom
lnant on land as the English on
sea and with love for native land
as strong, deep and lasting as the
German affection for the Father
land. There has not been an hour
from the moment the Pilgrim faith
ers landed at Plymouth to the
bright May day when Dewey
humble9 the flag of Spain in Ma
Mia bay, when Americans have
not been the missionaries of lib
erty.
The Revolutionary was for lib
erty and expansion on land; the
war of 1912 was for liberty and
expansion on sea; the Mexican
war WAS for liberty and expansion
to the west and south. the Rebel
hon was for liberty and union
everywhere and the country Is
still in the morning of its history.
The imperialism Of the Ameri
can idea gave the French people
power to through off the old re-
gime and enter into the dominion
of individual sovereignty. 1t has
made half score OF Latin Ameri
can republics strung along the
Andean mountain cham, every
one of them children of American
thought and of American example,
and still sheltered under the
strong arm of American brotec-
tIon. America never consulted
with cowardice or took counsel
With the fearful. She rejolces as
a strong man to run race, and
cares not how hard the task may
be providing it is Just.
The Republican party which
has so long guided the destiny of
republican America has been Just
and generous, opening the door
of opportunity to all, opening mar
kets that looms may spin, furnac-
es blaze, chimneYs smoke, trains
fly and ships sail, making work
maintaining wages and paying
honest toll and American skill
the highest wages In the best mon
ey III the world.
The Republican party stands
for the imperialism of opportun-
ity, the dominion of achievement,
the kingdom of manly labor, roy
al remuneration Tor loyal service.
If this be imperialism let the en-
emies of the republic make the
most oft The party which freed
| the black man, gave work to the
white man ard deals justly with
the brown man docs not hesitate
to go before the sovereign voters
OF the country and ask for en-
dorsement

Representative Marsh Of Illinois
has introducen in the house a bill
to extend military instruction to
the public schools of the country.
1t has been duly considered by the
committee on military affairs, and
the committee has decided to re-
port it to- the house during this
session of congress and recommends

The bill provides that, whereas,
the national defense must depend
upon the volunteer service of the
people of the several states, and,
whereas, cities and towns which
shall adopt system of military in
struction in their public schools are
entitled to the assistance of the
government, therefore the presi,
dent may assign retired officers and
noncommissioned officers, sergeants,
corporals, etc, Sin public schools
of the various cities of the United
States where such instruction shall
have been authorized by the educa-
tional authorities thereof, and
where the services of such ins true
tor shall have been applied for by
said authorities. 1t is further pro.
vided that the city or town author
tiles shall pay the cost of commuta,
ton, of quarters and the extra duty
pay of the officer so assigned, and
that the secretary of war shall issue
ordnance stores to the public
schools of any city or the norma
schools of any state which shal
adopt military instruction as a part
of its public school system.
