David Starr J o’rd:niltei'n;ats His Cele- brated Lecture on the Lessons of the War. We should give the people of the Phil- ippines a chance to take care of them- selves. Lend them Dewey and our army and send them men high in all the pro- fessions of art, industry and learning to educate them. The sensible thing for our Government to do, however, is to pull out some dark night when nobody is looking, get out as suddeniy as we gat into this matter of the Philippines. This was the summing up of the ques- tion of territorial expansion, so generally discussed by Americans since the close of the war, that David Starr Jordan made in & lecture last night. The distinguished educator chose for his text the line from Kipling’s master- plece, “The Recessional’: ‘‘Lest we for- et.”” This is the second time within a ortnight that he has delivered the lec- ture here, His broad grasp of the pres- ent situation in this country will appar- ently bear many repetitions, judged by the appreciative applause which marked the progress of his lecture. The trend of his remarks was against imperialism, against the acquisition of territory which the United States could never govern properly under its constl continent. 3 He sazid the majority.of the inhabitants of the Philippine Islands never heard of Spalin, nor of the United States, and do not know that there has been a war.

They are still by returning They hope that he will soon put in an appearance, and end their sus- pense. This hope is based on the com- plete knowledge of the country they knew him to have possessed, due to his long residence there, and on the fact that his brother Dave, now in Juneau, will surely discover his whereabouts. The diepatch stated that Martin had been found with his throat cut and that $4000 he was known to have had with him was missing. The crime, it there was one, has been charged to native Indlans, but his relatives affirn: that, the charge is unfounded, as the missing man was known and loved by them. They cite as an in- stance of their affection that when Martin was dangerously ill they cared for him in their crude way. If he has been murdered it is chargeable to the rough element that has gone into the snow-covered land. Mr. Martin has earned some fame in the land of the midnight sun through his partnership with. “Jim” Dalton, well-known in those regions. He alded the latter to cut the long and now use- ful trail that bears Dalton’s name and assisted in -other pioneer work. The supposedly dead man entered the barren country with his father when sixteen years of age.
