Show Next Monday the Senate will voe on the ratification of the treaty with Spain and the question of whether we keep the Philippines Philip-pines will bu decided. The expansionists ex-pansionists and anti-cxpautionists have been discussing the matter for some time. We see that Senator Sen-ator Rawlins, in a speech on Wednesday, i3 against the retention reten-tion of these islands and says that their retention bodes nothing but evil. We believe he is right on ibis question and that he will be supported by many of the farmers and laborers in this and other states. The best way to settle this question is to give the people of those islands i; government of their own as soon as possible the same as is being done in Cuba. |
