Empire and Imperialism

THE United States government in the Philippines has issued a circular, of which the following is a copy:—
United States Military Government in the Philippines. Department Public Instruction.
A Department of Public Instruction for the Philippines has just been established, and I write to ask if you can aid us in the civilization of this new part of our Empire by sending such reports, bulletins, school laws, etc., now or to be issued, as you may have for distribution.
As you read it, did you notice the words, “this new part of our Empire,” and empire spelled with a big E? How long can an “empire” continue without imperialism? And how can an “empire” be carried on without imperialists, and by a republic?
