connection refers to the Pan-American

States of the United States that thoseI
countries and states will make an
unique. interesting and instructive ex-
hibit peculiarly illustrative of thelri

which is about to close."
President McKinley expresses satis- l
faction over the outcome of the Peace}
Congress held at The Hague. and‘
hopes for beneficial results from thin
permanent tribunal for arbitration ce-QA
tablished by it. He calls attention to
the fact that in signing the conven-‘
tion. the representative of the llnltcdi
States carefully guarded the historic:
position of this country ancnt the
Monroe doctrine.
in a brief reference to the uumbrr’
of men comprising the» army of the

came to ihc l'nitcd Staten by the
terms of the treaty with Spain. and
says that he has every reason to ic-

aspirations of the great mass of ll.e

Mr. McKinley then tells of the ca-
tabllshment of a government in the
Island of Negros. the first island to
accept American sovereignty. and gives
to Congress the principal features of
the Constitution tinder which its sf-
fairs are. now being carried on pro-
vlslocaliy.
He next tells of the succession of the
United States to the rights of Spain
over the 8qu islands. and concerning
the article which provides that any

"The future government of the Phil-
lppincs.” says the President. "rests
with the Gangrene of the l‘nlted Sitter.
Few graver responsibilities have ever
been confided to us. if we accept them
in a spirit worthy of our race and our
traditions. a great opportunity comes
with them, The islands lie under the
shelter of our flag. They are ours
by every title of law and equity. They
cannot be abandoned. if we «insert
them we leave them at once to anar-
chy and finally to barbarlsm. We fling
them. a golden apple of discord. among
the rival powers, no one of which could
permit another to seize them unques-
tioned. 'i‘hcir rich plains and valleys
would be thc some of endless strife
and bloodshed. The advent of ilcwey's
fleet in Manila flay instead oi being.
as we hope. the dawn of a new day
of freedom and progress. will have
been the beginning of an cm of misery
and violence worse than any which
has darkened their unhappy past. The
suggestion has been made that We
could rcnuuncc our authority over the
.iulunds and giving them ludepcndem-c.
muid retain a protectoraic over them.
This proposition will not be fouml. i
am sure. worthy of your serious atten-
tion. Such an arrangement Would in-
volvc at the outset a cruel breach of
faith. it would placc the peaceabie
and loyal majority. who unit nothing
better than to accept our authority at
the mercy of the minority of armed in-
insurgenis. It would mnlre us respon—
sible for the acts of the insurgent lead-
era and give us no power to control
them. it would charge us with the
task of protecting thcm against each
other and defending them against any
foreign power with which they choose
it) quarrcl. in short it would take
from the Congress of the l’nited States
the power of declaring war and vest
that tremendous ororogative in thr
Tagal leader of the hour."
The Prcsldent does not deem it de-
sirablc to recommend at this time till
specific and final formal government
for the island. leaving that to Congress
when peace is frilly reslorcd. But he
believes that reconstruction should not
begin by the csinblishmcni of one cen-
tral civil government, with its seat at
Manila. but rather first establishing
municipal government and then pro-
vincini governments and central gnv.
crnments at last to follow.
Concerning Hawaii. President Mc-
Kinley says it is important that an not
should be passed erecting these lslnnie
into a judicial district. and provide for
the appointment of a judge and other
ufllcers
He then calls attention to the nee
easily for an immediate legislative re-
lief in the territory of Alaska. the pop- .
ulatiou having increased so rapidly
that more ample facilities for local
recommends that legislation to the
same end he had with retcrence to Put-
to Rico. ~
Mr. McKinley repeats in his mes-
sage the words used in his inaugural
address concerning Iynchingn in the
l'nited States. Mr calls upon the poo.
pic of the country to faithfully uphold
the right of trial by jury.
The last subject in the message in
Civil Service. Th4 President says that
the amendments promulgated by the
executive order of May" 29. less to the
‘order of May 6. 18m. were made when
it became evident 'o the heads of do
partments that the amendments were
necessary to an efficient and harmon-
ious administration of the depart-
ments. He claims that the results
obtained show that the p'ibllt‘ service
