We can well believe that, it Congress were asked to sanotion the sending of American troops into Mexico it would enact a solf- denying ordinance, as it did at the time of this declaration of war against Spain, and state in ex plicit terms that the United States intervenes in Mexico simply to restoro order, and not to acquire territory, The United States intorvone in the Philippine Islandis in 1808, with such pro tostations, and remains there.

Force of circumstances compels the United States to hold the Philippines, and it is highly probable that if the United States once intervened in Mexico on the grounds of humanity and pro tection to national interests, she would remain there for all time. In opposition to this view. it is said that at the present [1058 time there is no "forward "school"
of politicians in Amorica, and that least of all does the American: want to incorporate into the American political system a peo- ple with such a large infusion of the negro and Indian blood as the. Mexicans. Amories did not want Hawaii and the Philippine Islands before she took possession of them, but the fact that tliase islands are inhabited by people of Indian blood has not led to their abandonment.

communiquo was published

It also stated that Router was premature in an nouncing that the British Govern ment, had consented to the cessation of the importation of Indian opium, upon, the coin- pleto suppression of the growth by China and also to a triplo in crease of duty and the sale of # stocks in troaly ports without a time limit, the agreement mean- ing the extinction of the trade within two years.
