Expected to Be the Most Important
Document of the Kind Since the
Civil War.
Wasuinutok, Oct. 18. 1'reBident Mc
Kin ley's message to tbo next congress in
xpected to bo the most Important docu
muiit of the kind sinco the civil war.
After the president's Western trip, there
can uo longer be any doubt as to his in
teutions regarding the Philippines, for it
has been amply demonstrated that he
will recommend that the islands become
tbo permanent property of the United
States, leaving their treatment to con
greas, but asking that a policy bo early
outlined, in order to quench tho Filipino
hope tnat there will be a change in pub
lic sentiment in the United States which
will result in the domination of tboanti
expaunion element.
Tho president hopes to see marked ac
tivity in the legislative branch of the
government, us well as in the army, and
will early take active steps to undermine
the purposes of the anti-expansionists,
undermine their cause, and force them
to fall back upon silver as an issue.
The president's sudden determination
with regard to the Philippines is very
gratifying in administration circles, and
has upset the common supposition that
be would throw all the responsibility on
congress.
Aside from this issue, the president
will probably recommend that legisla
tion be enacted which will provide for
Homo control of the trusts and combina
tions. Tho establishment of a colonial
department to control affairs pertaining
to the new island possessions will ulso
lit) reeommeuded.
While President McKinley has not
been disappointed in public sentiment
us he hue found it during his tour, hiB
openness in advocating a permanent
American sovereignty over the Philip
pines and the hearty indorsement of the
course by the people everywhere has
occasioned the anti-expansionists some
concern, not because they hoped for a
different policy from him, but because
they acknowledge him to be an accurate
measurer of public sentiment when lie
gels among tke people.
