THE RIGHT OF CONQUEST

demand. the surr°nder of the entire Philli ine group of islands that they

peace protocol was signed. The war was ended by both parties on' the basis of Spain ` surrendering her sovereign rights in the West Indies. The demand for the Phillipines is clearly an afterthougltt on the part of the President. Neither he nor the nation he rules had made up their

man. H

but has -‘changed cause agenralqi disappointment. it is to lie-remembered that once

minds to take the Phillipiues at the time the protocol was signed Spain

would be called upon to make theat sacrifice. And it is hard to now find grounds to justify a demand that was not intended to he made or receivyd by either of the contracting parties itt, ‘ the signing of the peace protocol. The claim of conquest by force of arms will not hold good If it had _been a i vslifl claim it would huv.~_» been as- serted month-t ago. ' The conquest. of the Phillipines is made in the Paris commission, and was not made on the battlefield. Spain has no alter- native but to admit- the conquest on this basis or renew the war.

found that the feeling of bps western countrymen was in favor o capturing and retaining as much territory as possible,and he proceeded to strength-

len his discourses along that line until

the expansionists were fully satisfied that the President would carry out their wishes, as he is now doing.

The claim tothe possession of the

Philippines by right of conquest is a rather doubtful one at best- We say this, although the prevalent de- sire of both the British and Canadian people is to see the United States in possession of the group. But an in- finitesimal portion of the islands was either occupied or conquered by the United States arms One port on one

indeed captured but that fact can hardly furnish a ground to claim all the islands by conquest. The same thing is largely true of both Porto Rico and Cuba, but very small por- tions of either of those islands hav- ing been conquered. The principal strongholds in the Spanish

been attacked at the time of the ter- 'tmination of hostilities. But there is this noteworthy diference between the case of Cuba and Porto Rico on the one hand and the Phillipines on the other. Spain had been compelled by stress of the American arms to con- sent to renounce her sovereignty in the West Indies. The cession of Porto Rico and the withdrawal from Cuba were embodied in the protocol which ended the war. But it was not thus with the Phillipines ; they were not conquered by the United States arm- ies, nor did Spain consent to their surrender. _

It may be said that the Republic

could have driven the Spaniards out of the Pbillipines. Equally it might be said that the Republic could have

driven them out of Madrid and cap- tured the Spanish capital. The latter fact would hardly be admitted as
