AMERICAN EXPANSION
DE ARMOED SAYS IT Is ONE
THING AND COLONIAL
EMPIRE ANOTHER.
DEMOCRACY is OPPOSED 70 LATTER
he Declares the Minority in Congress
Favors Expansion as Our Faith
ers Understood It-sums
Up Party's Position.

WASHINGTON, June "a. -Represen-
tative d. A. De Almond, OF Missouri,
to-day made a forceful speech in the
House in opposition to retaining the
Philippine Islanps. Mr.. De eArmond's
remarks were taken as final utterance
Of Democratic position on the vexed
question Of the Philippines and re-
ceive d the closest attention frosa both
sides Of the House.
Mr.. De Almond summed up the at
titude Of his party on the much dis
cussed question Of Imperialism and ex-
pansion when he said:
"The Democratic party is not op-
posed TO expansion founded upon
American principles Expansion is
one thing; colonial empire another.
The Democratic party is anxious to
see the country expand, as expansion
was understood by our fathers. Ex-
panslon upon the American continent,
North or South, is the Democratic

miles beyond our border"
REpUDIATEs REPUBLICAN, CHARGE.
This statement, delivered with
great earnestness, aroused prolonged
cheering from the Democratic side OF
the House.
Mr.. De Almond repudiated utterly
the oft-repeated charge that, in crit
icising some Of the acts OF army OIL
GERS in the Philippines, the opposition
to the present Philippine policy has
slandered and assailed the American
Army.
In conclusion, Mr.. De Almond told
Of his presence in Havana May 20 when
the American flag was lowered and
the flag Of the Republic Of Cuba
holsted. To him, as an American cit
izen, he said the sight was inspiring.
"Far more inspiring, . he continued,
ethan If the American flag had re-
mained put in Cuba and the faith Of
the American people violated"
