Now. let iiae leave that branch of the case and go on. Gentlemen may say in answer to my argumient. "The Army will finally be draivn away from the Philippines. and even if that country is kept as a part of the United States or as a possession or dependency " (and I care nothingibout languagecall it what you please--let us differ about ideas if we differ at all) "that Army will be reduced or entirely done away with." I do not believe it. and I have behind me in my unbelief the history of the world. There is not a single instance in which a white or European race has held in subjection an Asiatic race where it has not been found necessary to keep up an immense army of occupation. Great Britain has found it necessary in the East Indies and in Egypt. France finds it necessary in Algiers and in Madagascar.
