During the past ten years, under a
constructive ltcpubllcau policy, the
United Statics has assumed a position
in the Pacific Ocean which is destined
to give her the bulk o f the vast com-
merce o f the countries situated on the
greatest body o f water on the globe.
Some o f the things accomplished by
the party o f enlightened freedom and
patriotism have been: The securing
o f the open door in C hina; the preser
vation o f the integrity o f the Chinese
Em pire; the acquisition of tile Philip-
pines; the establishment o f coaling sta-
tioim across the Pacific and tii.ally the
transfer o f the American flees o f'b a t
tleships from the Atlantic to the Paci
fic to modestly remind the Orieutal na
tions that, having assumed the. posi
tion of a world [lower in the Pacific,
we are prepared to maintain it against
uil comers.
