For President WILLIAM M'KINLEY, Of Ohio. For Vice-President THEODORE ROOSEVELT, Of New York. AMERICA IN THE PHILIPPINES AND FAR EAST. John Barrett. With the Democratic nominee for president claiming that the United States Is following a policy of "Im perialism" as a result of our occupation of the Philippine Islands, It ie well to note a few salient facts bearing on both the moral and material side of the question. Let us be fair and. In recog nition of the difference of opinion that exists amoong men as to politics, en deavor to reach the truth. Let us first note the moral relations of our country to the Philippines. We miut always re.THmber that while the United States is a material power, it Is above all things a moral power; while it is a commercial nation It Is supremely a Christian nation. If we have not a moral right in the Philippines, we should not consider the material ad vantages of their possession. FIRST-When Dewey destroyed the Spanish fleet In Manila bay, it was not possible for him to sail away without bringing about disastrous results to his fleet, to his country ard to the Philip pines. Necessary repairs to his ships after a great battle, the presence in Muthern Philippine waters of a lesser Sparlsh squadron of fourteen gun boats that could have swept the Ameri can merchant marine from trars-Pa-:ilc seas, the possibility of another Spanish fleet coming out from Spain, the maintenance of Spanish sovereign ty in the Philippines as a means of continuing the war for a long drawn out period, the protection of foreign, 'rs from native aggression, the Ina bility to secure coal to take his s.hlps across the Pacific, and various lesser influences, compelled him to remain. SECOND As he remained new re sponsibilities developed, the American army wag gent to the Philippines to fight Spain, and while our country was busy at war with this enemy, unex pected complications developed with the natives. These might have been pre vented If our foresight were as good as our hindsight, but they were the con tingencies of war. If the United States could have landed an armed force of WjO men at Cavite simultaneous with PITY AND BEAUTY The most beautiful thing, in the world, is the baby, all dimples and joy. The most pitiful thing is that same baby, thin and in pain. The dimples and joy have gone, and left hollows and fear. It is fat that is gone ; gone with it, comfort and color and curve ; all but pity and love. The little one gets no fat from her food : has had none for weeks: she is living on what she had stored in that plump little body of hers. She is starving for fat; it is death; be quick! Scott's emulsion of cod-liver oil is the fat she can take. It will save her. We'll laid yon t little to try if you like. ECOTT & BOWNE, 409 Pearl etrtet, New Tori trie ..tWriieijon.. of the Spanish fleet, that force coulil have "gone all through the Islands and would have been re ceived everywhere with welcome and acclaim, meeting with no opposition ex cept from Spanish sources. Then there would have been no Insurrection and no opportunity for Agulnaldo to have re turned. Fate and fortune were against us, however, and now we have the ead picture of the Democratic party taking advantage of the nation's embarrass ment In war to raise a political Issue. THIUD-If it had not boon for Don Cmllld Agulnaldo. there would never have been any Insurrection In the Phil ippines. His desire for personal power and fame, supported by remarkable cunning and executive capacity, under the cover of assunvM patriotism, Is en tity responsible for the warfare against America. Taking advantage of the conditions under which he was al lowed to go to Cavite, when he was never promise independence In any shape or form, he favored every ef fort to educate the masses of the people, who were at first kindly dis posed towards us. against the United States, our Institutions and our people. KOURTII-lf it had not ben for the methods of Aguinaldo and his associ ates, of ex-Spanish civil servants who hated us. of foreign auxiliary Junta, and of American sympathlxers, we would have established peace, order and good government, and might even have Klven the Filipinos, after they had proved themselves capable, the very In dependence which they now claim. The United States army, naval and civil official may have made mistakes In dealing with the Filipinos, but they were Insignificant In influence com pared with the agencies which were at work al! over the Islands under direc tion of the unscrupulous control al ready mentioned to educate the masses that America and Americans were in finitely worse than Spain and Span iards. History will prove beyond ques tion that the United States did every thing In its power to prevent the out break on the 4th of February. 1599, which has given the Democratic nom inee his cry of Imperialism. FIFTH The sum and substance of the whole Philippine question is this: The United States Is today In the Phil ippine Islands. Is putting down Insur rection, and Is maintaining sovereign ty and endeavoring to establish order. as a result of meeting our unavoidable mora! responsibilities growing out of the war with Spain, which waa a right eous war supported by Democrats as well as Republicans. If insurrection (and the so-called issue of imperialism) has resulted from the establishment of American sovereignty In the Philip pines, It must be remembered by Demo crats and skeptical Republicans that this sovereignty Is the result of a treaty of peace which was favored by the Democratic nominee for president as much as by the Republican presl; dent. Which will the voter follow the man who, having urged the ratifica tion of the treaty, now shirks the re sulting responsibilities and favors a scuttle policy, or the man who, having advocated the same treaty, now says that America shall meet her resulting responsibilities, that there shall be no scuttle policy, and that we shall pursue our duty and not be guilty of desertion. SIXTH-Looking at the material side we note that the Philippine archipela go, comprising 115.000 square miles, and holding 8,00,000 people, is the geograph ical, and can be made the commercial and- strategic center of that entire won derful coast line, Just across the Pacific from our own shores of California, Ore gon and Washington, which winds In and out for 8,000 miles from Australia on the south to Siberia on the north, and upon which debouch 800,000,000 of neople with their increasing trade and wants, and which sustains an annual foreign commerce of 32,000,000,000, of which America's share is only $200,000,- 000 where It should and can be 31,000, 000,000 if we retain possession of the Philippines. If Spain developed an an nual trade of $32,000,000 in the Philip pines with h?r depressing methods. America with her enterprise will eas ily increase this to $150,000,000 per an num. The $20,000,000 which the United States Is credited with having paid to Spain for the archipelago la a mere bagatelle compared with their material worth. If It be contended that we are spending hundreds of millions of dol lars and sacrificing thousands of lives in the Philippines, such millions and such lives are nothing compared to the millions we must spend and the lives we must sacrifice some time In the fu ture If we would regain the prestige, influence, honor and commerce, not only In the Pacific, but throughout the world, which we will now lose If we fol low the policy of the Democratic par ty, withdraw our flag and forces from the. Philippines., and ccme back to .America In 'll.'grac ftnd dishonor be ;ro 1 na loiw. 'SEVENTH -li conclusion, let us con trast with ili words of the Nebraska oolonel who Is a candidate for presi dent, and wIm wit never upon th !lr ing line and never within 1000 miles of ttv Philippine, but who says that our flag must come down and that we are guilty of Imperialism In the Philippines and ore responsible for the present con flict, those words of brave Colonel Stot seiiberg, of Nebraska, who Just before he died In the Philippines said to the American newspaper correspondent: ''The responsibility for the outbreak between the Filipinos and the Ameri cans docs not rest upon the American arm or the American government, and if our country would survive, our people must remember that when our ling Is fired upon deliberately by the enemies of the United States, as I know It was fired upon by the Filipinos, there con be no cessation of the conflict except that of unconditional surrender." It Is exasperating to one who knows Foley's Honey and Tar, and knows what it will do, to have a dealer rec ommend something else as "Just the same" or "Just as good" for colds, coughs, croup, la grippe, etc. When a woman drives a man to drink he always makes a good time record. Don't be deceived or humbugged by people who claim the discovery of some hitherto unknown herb or root in swamps, or on some mountain or prairie, for the cure of kidney and bladder troubles. Any doctor or drug gist will tell you that such claims are fraudulent Foley's Kidney Cure sim ply contains remedies that are recog nised by the most skilful physicians as best for these complaints, so don't be credulous or foolish. A young man tiever burns Ms candle at both ends if he has to pay for the candle. TO STOP A COLD. After exposure or when you feel a cold coming on, take a dose of Foley's Honey and Tar. It never fails to stop a cold If taken In time. The stepping stone in front of a sal oon leads to success for the saloon keeper. "I have always used Foley's Honey and Tar cough medicine and think It the best in the world." says Chas. Bender, a newsdealer of Erie, Pa. Take no substitute. A man always has a rattling old time when he throws dice for the drinks. The editor of the Fordvllle. Ky.. Mis cellaneous writes as a poetcrlpt to a business letter: ''I was cured of kid ney trouble by taking Foley's Kidney Cure." Take nothing else. A nod is as good as a wink to the intelligent dispenser of soda-water. A CARD. The manufacturers of Banner Salve have authorized the undersigned to guarantee It for burns, cuts, sores, ul cers, tetter. ecuma and all skin dis eases. You have your money back If It doesn t do all It claims. Remorse and economy are always faithful followers of the races. BRtOHT'S DISEASE. High living. Intemperance, exposure and many other things bring on Bright's disease. Foley's Kidney Cure will prevent Brlght'g disease and all other kidney or bladder disorders If taken In time. Take nothing else. A stag party Is known by the num ber of horns mads to disappear. IT HEALS THE LUNGS. When suff?rlmr from a racking cough take a dose of Foley's Honey and Tar. The soreness will be relieved and a warm, grateful feeling and healing of the parts1 affected will be experienced. Take no substitute. Many a man who Imagines he Is a wrestler, can't even throw dice.
