The policy of the present administration is
identical with that initiated by General
Harrison.
Again he urged that all questions aris-
ing out of annexation should be left to the
future and to the just and benevolent pur-
noses of the United States When PreSi-
dent Mckinley issued his instructions for
the government of the Philippines, he not
only followed the Hawaiian precedent, but
guaranteed the FiHpinos just and beneyo-
lent government according to the principles
and purposes of the United States
Regarding the probable action Of the Su-
preme Court. he said:
But these questions will soon be decided
by the Supreme Court, says General Harri-
SON That is impossible. The Supreme
Court cannot and will not decide them land
even If it attempted to do so. its action
would be revolutionary and void. Can 1t
mandamus the President? Can 1t enjoin
the Congress? Can 1t prohibit this sover-
eign nation from exercising Its sovereignty
over conquered territory? Unless it over
rules the precedents of a century. and re-
pudiates a practice that has prevailed since
problems of a strictly judicial character.
refuse to pass on those Of political nature
and relegate their further consideration to
the political departments Of the govern
ment. 1t will thus settle few. If any. of the
great problems discussed by General Harri-
son and now agitating the American pub
lie.
Undoubtedly the court will follow the
construction of national power first laid
down by Chief Justice Marshall. and unit
formly adhered to since that this Is q
sovereign nation and can annex territory
absolutely or sub modo. and upon any
terms and conditions 1t pleases. Having
decided this much 1t will logically follow
that 1t must dismiss from further consid-
Grafton the pr0priety. Of, the particular
terms Of annexation ~ matters within the
exclusive Jurisdiction OF the President and
Congress-
