REPUBLIC OR EMPlREq

Representative Cochran of Missouri in his recent
forcble speech the Philippine question in the house
of representatives prefaced his remarks with the text
from Job: Should wise man utter vain knowledge
and I'll his belly with east wind? Should he reason
with Improbable talk or with speeches wherewith he
do no good2'
It is of sad significance that American statesman
should feel moved quote so bitter text aud that
his fellow citizens throughout the country should at
once recognize its application
The republican administration and the republican
majority in congress have gone mad on the question Of
imperialism knowledge uttered TO them is vain rea.
son to them Improbable talk and the ablest speeches
can do immediate good. The speaker who ad.
dresses them only hope that his words will bear
fruit in season in the future IL with the recalcran
republicans az least with tho voters of the country
when election time comes round IL only the other
day chat prominent republican said in congress that
congress could do anything in the Philippines that the
car OF Russia could do Ia his dominions What would
the continental congress Of which the present congress
is the successor. have said that? Would they not
have said. We, therefore. the representatives Of the
United states OF America in general congress assem-
oed appealing TO the supreme Judge of the world for
the racutude OF our intentions do soemny publish and
declare that the Philippine islands are and OF right
ought 20 be- free and independent" That is what the
continental congress would have said
If our present congress would act more In the spirit
@, tast Mpat,ous body the country would be pulled
up short In its downward course and the world would
oo spared the spectacle Of the eclipse Of the greatest
nation in the world DO the present congress would act
according to the established traditions Of the country
would prefer al1or and wight to al the islands of tho
sas. it would start back In shame from playing the
