In HONOR OF M'KINLEY.
A Proposition TINT VIII Meet Public
Favor 10 ne-Chrisfen the Philip
nInes the Mckinley Islands.

Washington. Sept. 30.A sngRea-
tion emanating from a high source,
and which Is meeting with widespread
favor. is TO change the name OF the
Philippine islands TO the Mckinley ISL
ands. The object is. of course, 10 per-
petunte the name and Rlory Of the
martyred president and mis- adminis-
tration. II Is intended TO bring the
proposition before the next congress,
and IL IN not doubted that IL will be
accepted without question II present
ed in the proper manner
The appropriateness of The suggcs-
tion Is generally conceded. AS, saYe for
the foresight and persistence OF Prtsi-
dent Mckinley, the Philippines might
to-day occupy different and far less
intimate relation TO the United States
than Is now being shaped for them.
N is pointed out that this proposed
change would link his name with lbe
government of the country for all
time, and also would be constant
and conspicuous reminder 10 future
generations throughout the World
that IL was in his administration that
the republic expanded its bcnedcent
influence 10 the orient, and there eB-
tabIished In enduring form It's insti-
tutions and systems.
The proposition, though at present
entirely tentative, contemplates n
complete change Of nomenclature iH
the whole archipelago. For example,
the entire group is 10 be naIued the
Mckinley islands, and the process OF
Americanization is to be carried out
to the minutest detail BY giving 10 the
different islands the names Of dis
tignuished Americans Of tine past and
present time. This part of the scheme
embraces the idea Of bestowing upon
the different islands and provinces
the names Of the men most promi-
nent identified with the acquisition
