Burned Beveridge's Speech. Washington, -Sept hundred thousand copies of Senator Beveridge's Philippine speech have -been consigned to the furnace in the Senate folding room. The speeches were burned by order of the Republican campaign managers, who. it is supposed, 'reached the conclusion that the documents would not prove successful as vote-catchers in the present campaign. It is understood that the speech had printed "by order of the managers, folded and wrapped ready for mailing-, placed in large number of mail sacks, all this work being at a heavy -cost to the tax-payers, Uncle Sam footing all the -bills.

Assistant Superintendent Brewer received orders the other day to see that every of the speech was consigned to the furnace, anil it was done without the subordinates asking any This speech by Senator Beveridge was delivered on the- 9th of January; and in support of a joint resolution defining: tie policy of the United Stales relative the Philippine islands. It will be remembered that the Indiana Senator had made an extended tour of the Philippines and the Far East and this speech in the Senate was in the nature of a report upon his observations. Among other things, said the Philippines belonged to thf 3 United States forever, and just beyond the Philippines are China illimitable markets. "We would not," he declared, "renounce our part in the mission of our race, trustee, under God. cf the civilizatioa-bf the Future wars, he said, would bo wars commerce.

The power that ruled tile Pacific would he the power that i.he world, and with the Philippines the power would forever be the American republic. Senator Beveridge reviewed at great length the wonderful value of China's trade, ana said that with the Philippines could get the better part of it. "And yet," he said, "American statesmen plan to surrender this commercial throne of the Orient where Providence and our soldiers' lives have placed us." It is known that the political editors labored seriously with Beveridge's speech endeavoring to eliminate any portion of it which wou.il not catch votes.
