LETTERS TO"GREENBOY.

You overestimate entirely tho im
portance of the issue which holds up
its head under tho designation of im
perialism. That cheap term "imperial
iera" Hoes tot incorporate an idoa. It is
merely a word used to frighten timid
und apprihonsivo people. When Grant
was prosidout, ox-Mayor A. Oakoy Hall
of Ifew York contributed loading ar
ticles to tho New York Herald. They
wero full of expressions of fear that
General Grunt would proclaim himself
omperor. They wero for tho roost part
heuded "Dangers of Imperialism." Just
na tho reference to tho "cross of gold"
was borrowed from a Massachusetts
congressman, tho word "imperialism"
us nppliod to our institutions was
borrowed from Oakoy Hull, IheEcaro
crow Is us hurmloes now us it was then.
Both had a coat of mail on the outside
und straw on tho inside.
Imagino for ono moment William Mc
Klnley with a crown on his hoad, order
jog peopio.to bo crucified on a crocs of
gold somo dozen or more overy morn
ing before breakfast. It is to laugh.
For all practical purposes imperials
und militarism are synonymous terms.
Imperialism moans to conquer with
U:o nnd sword and militarism to bol J
by brutul force. Tho democratic parly
protonda to foar that tbis is tho treat
ment wo have in storo for the Filipino
ialunds. Bryan & Co,, proclaim that
tho Filipinos having fulU'n into our
hand9 by the fortunes of war should not
only bo given independence, but pro
tected from outside interference while
they work out their own destiny. That
is exactly what wo of the republican
party are trying to do. Congress is the
proper body to determine what shall be
done with the islands after Aguinolrio
has boen licked. And licked he will be
tako my word for that.
When the war is over two influences
will be brought to bear upon members
of Congress for the retention of the
Filipino islands as United States terri
tory. One of them will be the com
mercial, the othor the church interest.
The forn.or will claim that extension of
our foreign trade requires annexation.
The lutter will claim with groat fervor
that tho savage3 (and they are not
savBgea) should bo civilized. You are
too eimplominded to realize what such
pressure means. But in time you will
learn to realize it and then you will do
some thinking.
Consciously or unconsciously, willing
ly or unwillingly the democratic party
has placed itself iu the attitude of tur
render to armed antagonists. Tho re
publicans know full well that they can
not bo beaten by uny party which de
mands a retreat under llr The demo
crats cannot combat a sentiment which
is part of tho nature of every human
being the repugnance to acknowledg
jog yourself beaten. "Tho war is a
failure" will continue to cling to the
democrats and to Bryan as it did to Mc
Clollan.
The withdrawal of our troops from
the Filipicea at this time would Epoll
neither anti-imperialism nor anti-expansion.
It would spell national dishonor.
We would be the laughing stock of all'
nations. Ridicule, that sticks is a
woapon that will slay everything in its
path.
It is my opinion that in paying twcn
ty million dollars to Spuin wo havo ac
quired a defective tittle. But that does
not vitiato tho justico of our present
aggrecsivo policy. Wo do not uccept
the proposition tha't wo ean bo beaten
by anything on earth kast of all by a
race like tho Tngale of Luzon. Theso
charming pooplo aro entitled to their
independence. They aro not our kind
of people and wo do not want them.
When we get through with them, they
are welcome to set up housekeeping for
themselves. Tho exigencies of trade
and religion do not requiro their assim
ilation. If in tho futuro other nations
cast a longing oyo on tho Filipinos, lot
them keep out of troublotbo beet they
can.
When wo havo taught Aguinaldoa
lesson we should bo magnanimous und
enlightened enough to expoct neither
tribute nor territory, And although
tho democracy ma continuo to mietako
its target and tiro at the nution instead
of tho republican party, that party will
settle the Filipino question to suit tho
nation, It this is imperialism, make
tho most of it.
