ton has been trying to get a foothold for
commercial and naval purposes In east
ern waters-Germany, England, France and
Russia. Through the fortunes of war the
United States obtained, rghtfully and
without chicanery the best and most
strategic position possible, giving us su-
perior naval and commercial advantages
over the other nations What sort of COM
mon sense would 1t be for us to give up
such a position?
Look here" said the admiral, turning
to large globe of the world which stands
in his office suppose we should dispose
of the Philippines and Japan should &C
quire them. See how the Islands stretch
along the coast. Here are the japanese
islands, here is Formosa which Japan owns,
and then come the Philippines. If Japan
had them, she would command every gate
way to the orient and the United States
would be completely shut out.
Field of Commercial Operations.
Every one comedies that the orient is the
future great field for the principal CONNER
cial nations of the world. We ought to be
the. leaders, but we must at least have
share in the enterprise, and in order to DO
so we must maintain the position we have
occupied through lOfce OF circumstances
in that region. l am talking now of the
purely commercial phase Of the question, and
l think it Is plain that we must have COM
mercial base of operation such as Manila
furnishes And then, in order to protect
our commerce, we must have naval base,
and at Subig bay such base is now being
developed. Congress has recognized our
needs in the Philippines and has appro-
priated literally for fortifying the islands.
Modern guns are being mounted, a large
dry dock has been located in Subig bay,
troops are stationed in the Island of Luzon.
and in every way Congress has shown its
desire to protect the islands from foreign
aggression and also to establish base for
possible military operations.
1T has been frequently said that the
United States has assumed responsibilities

CHICAGO, September 21.-Fo,lowing the

Mr. Sims believes the financial condition

and that if the company's obligation should
be limited to 81 100000 it might dispose OF
the property and could be held liable for
only that amount.

but to large circle of friends in this
community.
She taught one year in the Manches-

for the purpose of study. She had q
good knowledge of the French and
German languages, but she desired to
so complete her attachments In these
languages that she might be able to
teach them with thoroughness and ac-
curacy. She Travelled with her party
during the summer months, but in the
autumn took up the study of German
in Germany, and later the study of
French in Paris. She was absent
about one year and half. She re-
turned in 1888 and the following Sep

sition she ably filled for term OF
eleven years.
