became hopeful young nation, at
our southwest doorway. And soon
Texas applied for admission into the
Union as a state, with the proviso
that it could in the future become
four states if it so desired
The proposition was declared un-
constitutional There was high debate,
for in those days the wings and the
"knownothings" battled the demo-
Gratis. But Texas came in, and she is
with US yet, God bless her" And in
time she may become four states. But
will again.
Freeing of Slaves.
During the deplorable American civil
war, the chattel slaves were declared
free by proclamation of the Presi-
dent. That. was unconstitutional,
plainly 50. as that 'institution" was
written into that document in sew
eral places. That is why the act was
proclaimed as a war measure. and
made a condition of peace after the
surrender" Then it was made con-
stitutional by the thirteenth amend
ment. All of which simply and elo-
quently goes to show that written in
struments cannot stop tt inward
march of human progress prog
ress will compel a chan a any
writing that dares to stop its unfold
ing course.
Manifest Destiny"
One more illustration. After the
Spanish-American war, in 1889. We
had the problem of manifest destiny
and the anti-imperialists on our
hands. Senator Hoar and Speaker
Reed did not agree with President
Mckinley, though of the same political
party. The President stood for IMAM
ifest destiny" But the nation was all
agog as to whether the Constitution
followed the flag, or the flag followed
the Constitution" Anyhow, the Con-
stitution weathered the tempest. So
that the great changes" which 'our
manifest destiny occasioned. some
twenty years ago. left the old Consti-
tuition with US still.
If the league of nations be now
our manifest destiny. why not accept
it and adjust our fundamental law
to take over the new duties of the
new age, for there is no denying
that some change-aye, many changes
have come to the world, even since
1S9s-even in the past few years.
Purposes of League.
The league of nations aims mega
lively to prevent wars; positively to
protect and promote in all the world
stable, free governments.
The Monroe doctrine stood guard
to keep old world monarchism off the
American continent. The league of
nations has similar but larger work
in view. 1t is composed of free peo-
pies, who propose to safeguard de-
mocracies in the whole world. And
the world seems ready for that work.
If Great Britain consecrates her
vast empire for this high purpose.
can the republic of North America
hesitate to take her stand at Britain's
us, change it. as we did following our
own great civil war. But let US not
fall behind, or fail to keep step with
the manifest destiny now upon US.

WILSON PEACE PLAN
URGEDF0R IRELAND.
Justice Cohalan Says Self
Determination Should Be
Guaranteed All Peoples.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa. February %.
Speaking before the convention of
the Irish race. which opened here to-
day, Justice Daniel F. Cohalan of the
New York supreme court said that
unless the doctrine of self-determina-
ton be applied to Ireland there can
be no just and permanent peace COM
ing out of the work of the peace con-
ference.
when our great President laid
peace was to be made. a just durable
and permanent peace" said Justice
Cohalan, "he placed no restrictions
upon the application of those doc
trines. He said that elf-determina
ton was to be given to all peoples,
without condition or qualification.
Protests partial Application"
IF now that doctrine is to be ap-
piled only to those peoples who were
oppressed by the countries that were
in arms against America then our
struggles will have been largely in
vain, and no just or permanent peace
can come as the consequence of this
partial application of the Presidents s
doctrine of lf-determination.
II the war just ending was fought
only for the purpose of breaking
down one form of militarism in order
to establish more permanently an
other form of mflitarism, the war
VIII not have brought about the end
for which the people fought and bled
and sacrificed, and war and a contin-
uance of war, instead of peace and
permanent peace, will be the neces-
sary outcome of the settlement which
fails to apply the doctrine of self
determination to all those who seek
to be free"
Justice Cohalan took exception to
the statement that the Irish question
was one of domestic policy with the
British empire.

Former "Perils" Are Cited.

Do our devoted patriots who SO
watchfully guard the Constitution re-
call how many times that honored
instrument has been endangered? And
yet it has survived the very perils
that statesmen declared would wreck
it.
In 1908 Thomas Jefferson was Pres
ident- Mr.. Jefferson did several things
which help very much to make
the history of his age instructive.
But he was blamed for ignoring the
Constitution when he bargained for
and bought Louisiana from France,
or from Napoleon. His political op
ponents, New England federalists. and
some of his own party declared his
conduct plainly unconstitutional
contrary to any intent or purpose of
the fathers. the founders of the fed
eral republic, etc.
But Mr.. Jefferson closed the deal
and called upon Congress for fifteen
millions. and got it. of couNe. after
everybody talked a-plenty. And the
Constitution survived the shock. And
everybody was happy later, for now
that territory makes a dozen large
states in our federal Union and has
put twelve stars in our national flag.

ITO be or not to be, that is the ques-

tions Voices from over the seven

chorus that is all-compelling.
The object of the league of nations
may be stated briefly to be: First. to

mote democracy, or free peoples.

Concerning Objections.

But we hear objections. Two stand
out mainly: 1t is not constitutional; |;
and, it endangers the life of the Mon
roe doctrine.
Mr. Taft. eloquently argues for the
league, and one thing he believes is
that the league is but the principle
of the Monroe doctrine made world
wide
If the league supersedes the Monroe
doctrine it cannot harm the Consti-
tuition, for the Monroe doctrine has
lived for ninety-six years in comrade-
ship with the Constitution. each help
ing the other. And why? Because the
Monroe doctrine stands to protect free
people on the western hemiSphe re.
The league of nations object is to do
the same work for the whole world.
No monarchies, no autocracies, no
wars.
If the league of nations endangers
the life of the Constitution, how has
il thrived so well supporting the Mon
roe doctrine? 1t is not written intoSit
it is a doctrine and mode of action
drawn from its spirit.
