PEACE AND ITS PROBLEMS.
The peace which the signing of the
protocol by the United States and
Spain has ushered in brings some
serious problems to this country.
Peace which carries with it an ac
cession of territory usually entails
political difficulties. We shall have
to provide a new system of govern
ment for Porto Rico, for the one
Xadrone island which we obtain,
and for part or all of the Philippines.
A protectorate we shall have to set
up over Cuba until, sooner or later,
and probably sood, the Cuban peo
ple, in reaching a decision between a
separate republic and annexation, de
clare for the latter. Then some
torm of government for that island
must be 'devised. Hawaiia's needs
in the same direction will also have
to be attended to. Thus a larger
task in the way of framing a system
of polity for newly acquired lands is
about to be thrown upon us than we
aver encountered at any one period
in the past.
No person familiar with American
history, however, has any fears as to
the outcome of our new work in em
pire building. We devised an ac
ceptable species of government near
ly a century ago for the vast region
of Louisiana, which was greater in
area than the whole previous extent
of the United States. Florida was
furnished a stable and orderly gov
ernment, preliminary to the terri
torial regime. The immense ex
panse comprised in California and
New Mexico was satisfactorily dealt
with. Alusfca, our most recent ac
quisition previous to 1898, has had
a reasonably efficient government
during the third of a century of its
American connection, although it
has not yet attained the full terri
torial status. In framing a govern
ment for our new possessions the
constitution gives congress a free
hand. Congress ma', if it desires,
devise a different scheme for each of
the islands or groups. It can legal
ly run all the variations between a
crown colony and a stale.
Thus the people, through c.ongress
and the president, can deviie a gov
ernment for each island suitable to
its necessities and capabilities. At
the outset our regime in the Louisi
ana province, in Florida and in all
our other accessions was a military
despotism. True, it was a benevo
lent despotism, but it was a despot
ism. This was soon superseded by
a scheme in which the element of
force was not quite so obvious, but
it remained until it was changed by
congress, and the will of congress
dictated the time and the manner of
the change. This experience will be
repeated in the case of our new ter
ritory. The task will be a large one,
but the country is equal to it. No
partisanship and no considerations
of personal favoritism will determine
our policy. There is sufficient in
telligence and public spirit in this
country to render it certain that the
work of caring for the political wel
fare of our new wards shall be wise
ly performed.
If any mistakes are committed
they can easily be rectified. This is
one of the advantages of democratic
government. It is very safe to pre
dict that even in the preliminary
stage of the work of adjusting our
acquired territory to its new condi
tions none of its inhabitants Cu
bans, Porto Ricans, Philippines or
others will have cause to regret
the fate which has made them a part
of the American republic.
Though few of the volunteers
will get a taste of war this time, the
country knows that the specimen at
Santiago was a fair average of what
all would do under the same circum
stances. A Honolulu paper prints an arti
cle sa3ing: "Porto Rico must be
ours. JNow let the , Forto Kican
journals expand on the theme: "The
Philippines ere essential to our Tan
tee nation."
