Tho President's Message.
Washington. D. C. Nov. 11.
Since Presidont McKin:ey's return
froin the west be baa beeu givon con.
niderable attention to tbe preparation
of bis annual message to congress
Tho urincimd Dart of tbe message
will h devoted to consideration of
the future of the islands which have
beuome the property of the United
States as a result oi tue war.
Thn resident will take tbe crouud
that these islands shall uot be a bur
den financially or morally to the
United States. He will recommend
the orcunization of native recriments
to garrison the islands of Cuba and
Porto Rico aud tbe Philippines ana
Uuam under tue command or ivmer
icau officers.
He will nlso recommend that sen
arate tuiiff systeuis shall be provided
for these islands so ns to make them
Stir supporting.
He will also strontrlv favor the
budding of the Nicaragua canal uu
tier American ausmces.
Tbe president will recommend that
Porto Kico. tUe ruiUppine croup
fliiam und CuLa. until un indepen
deut government can be estublhbetl
they ubull be treated as colonics ami
not iih territories like Alaska. He
will suggest that as the people iu
iIicho iHlaud oiOL'ress in civilization
aud iu their uu Jerstandiug of Ameri-
can ideas there may come a time iu
ilia f ut..re wbon tbe United States
will be willing either to unuex theHC
territories us constitutional prts of
this C'niutry or establish indepen
dent forms of government thereon
uudor the supervision tif the Ameri
can federal government.
A highly importuut feature of the
president's recommendations will be
the BiiL'ryestion that 80 para te tariff
systems be provided for tbe differ-
ent isluuds.
The president does not believe
that it would be wise to estubltsb
free trade between the United
States and these islands and he will
take tbe sround that the American
pioducers must not be allowed to
suffer as a result oi tue expansion
of American territory nnd that they
honld be protected from the cheap
labor and climatic advantages of the
islands.
Tim nreaident will recommend
that the croverntnent of these islands
. - - . .
be eft for some years at east i the
whom he will suy a good clean ad
ministration of ufluirs may be ex
pected.
