The Mot of these propositions goes flatly counter tu the elaborate theoretical arguinent Cit occupies nearly all the space of Mr. Ilryan's speech. if, indeed, the Filipinos postiess, as he egirms, the absolute right to govern themselves, then we can have no business to establish a stable government or any other kind of a Severnment among thorn.

Would he be justified in withdrawing our troupe mid the Isletain In the hands of armed insure-ems, who deny tho sovoreignty that we officially assumed in the eyes or the whele world when we ratified the peace treaty that Air.

Only Way to Grant Indepentlenee.

In it not thno to coin' down out of the clouds of theoretical reasoning almut the inalienable rights of man, in orticr to look plainly at the actual situation? We have been fighting in the Philippitien for a year and a hair; and we 'mist tical with the utlo api vve find it at the end rattler than at the beginning of thet period. In contests of this kind It is cuetomary for one side or the other to win. We can admit ourselven worn out, and therefore practically defeated by the Filipino insurgents, and in pursuance of such confession we can achnowltdgo their Independence and withdraw exactly as the British witMrew from this oountry in :71. In that came, nothing could more abaurd than to make the conditton that we ehould stay by, establish bitable form of government, withdraw WIWS we saw nt, keep permanent possession of the principal harbor, and then maintain a permanent protectorate. George Washington did not deal with the Initial' on any such bash; as that.

If, indeed, we have made a mistake In tho Philippines. and If we have no right or business to be there, and If Aguittaldo is another George 'WtratIngton, and If the Filipinos are eminently capable of self-government, thou Mr. Bryan reasons to a roost unaultable conelltsien. We should acknowledge our pomition in the Philippines to be morally and physically incapable of maintenance, should make a treaty of peeve meter which we ehould withdraw completely, Seknowledging the independence of the Filipinos, giving them am their due and proper right the public property that we took over from Spain. We should ItlIVO the Philippines aa Spain has ieft tho West Indies.

Propeletle of the ease. Under those to ask (Mtn to give IIS a harbor and coaling-etetien would be as impertinent as it would he for them to ask um to give them Honolulu. An it would be still more impertinent Pm us, our behavior to them and in dorious attempt to defeat them on their ON01 111011, to offer to be their eponsor and protector in taco of the world Lit large. The English fought us in the revolutionary war until they thought the game we no longer worth the candle, und then they acknowledg; our holeatinience. They had their grim VO dOlibtS aboilt onr to form a slit ble government: and they looked on tittle we floundered through our wretched experiment with the articles of confederation btfore we establinffird our sound and stable framework of under the censtitution in 17,.9.

limit they did not propone to establieh our government for us while aeknowledgiug our independence, our yet to exercke a protectorate over us in perpetuity. I.et have the menlinesm to do the one thing or the other In the Philippines. the Fillpinos have won their Ind, pendellee, totd deserve It, let us eschew ()grilse facts, and eome1101110.

But we do not believe that Aguinaldo is a George WaehMelon or that there eximts any elicit thing as a great and promking Filipino natton moved la, the spirit of political progress nnti lighting Intelligently for Independence and a place In the Camila oh nations, What we 110 biAtilVO Ia OSA there II! a largo population in the Philippine isiande that need and order and that, am matters now stand, the only outlook they can poseibly have for those ordinary conditions that make life worth living 11144 III the suppreesion of the warfare maintained by guerrilla heroin of Tagale and a chrome for Anterlean adminintrution to ehow what It can do, Wo have gone so far in thin matter that true economy of human blood, effort and trenattre lies In our going a little further and completing our work.

Soto CioNe leletinetions. It is hard to see what difference there im for really practical purposes between that higher 'authority over the Philippines that Mr. Ileyan would exereise under the Rubio of a protectorate and that responsibility which we should more openly and directly aselline under the theory time, for purpmes Of internetional recognition, the movertdanty of the Philippines and adjacent waters Wua under the Stmet and lit it not true that, doing away with mere rhetoric and forms of words, the Filipinos e.re just as independent under one method as they are under the other? Stuble government In the Philippine islands under American auspices is what Mr. Bryan demande, and he aserrtm the demund without the slightest reference to the question whether or not the Filipinos themselves want to Weblish a stuble government or take them in the future under our care and protection. There is no need to be mincing of language.

Mr, Brystn's program, reduced to practice, makes eve Filipino pee-pie the wards of this nation irrespective of their will, presumably for their good. And in our capacity as guardian Mr. Bryan would have us theittily obtain a transfer of the title from our comparatively helpless ward to an extremely valuable pommeesionwhich in his opinion is all that we happen to need of our ward's propertyand which in the international market is by all odds the ward's moat Important soiset. And yet Mr. Bryan (mutes Senator Lodge's Philadelphia speech with deep moral disapproval, because Senator Lodge was frank enough to say that he believed that the promo, Bon of our commercial intereets in the Philippines and the far east was entirely compatible with our treating the Filipino people both honorably and beneficially, and that it was a distinctly proper object of the work of our government In its diplomacy and external relations to promote the expansion of our teethe Pt, ilippine Neeetionelly Dependent, The people of the Philippine islands cuuld not peasibly take their place as a member Of the family of nations with to responsible backer; because, if for no other reason, they would not be admitted into family fellowship.

The Americae. flag as the symbol of the larger and external status of the Philippine islands clues not mean anything in any sense humiliating to the Filipinos. Their Weetionto the Swinish flag armee solely teem the most protracted and Stine misgovernment on Spain's part, and not from tiny instinctive development among the Filipinon Of the spirit of national unity and Independence. There has never any evidence of the existence of such a spirit. Dr.

Meal, who was the real head and inepiration of the revolt that produced Aguinaido as one of Its military chiefs, was merely contending for too carrying out of certain ptomised reforms In the Spanish colonial administration. As a matter of recent history, Mr. I3ryan himself stoutly defended the treaty tweed upon at Paris under which Spain NN as eihninoted from the Philippines by th.t procems of transferring such title as ehe had to us. Nothing could be more contrary to the spirit of sincere critleinin than the Militant aseertion that we went into a Flay market and bought the Filipinos at $2.50 a head, when, in point cf fact, as the easiest way to settle certain prcperty quemtionsthe ownership of various public buildings and other valuable Property unqueetionably belonging to Spainwe paid the sum of ta0.000.0e0. The truesaction was perfectly honorable on both aides, and did not in any way effeet the future political atat a of the Filipino people.

If that treaty of peace had been promptly ratified, as it ought to nave been, the war between our troops and those of Agninaido which began a yeer find a bait ago would, in all human 'trot-totality, never have occurred. We should have proveeded to establish good government just as rapidly as possible. and it would have been both estsy ii71(1 safe to have coneeded to the Filipinos IncornFertility more than they had ever ettked irom the Spaniarde. A Condition Not Theory. There is not a Imman being In the United Stutes who lass ever wanted to hold the Filipinos In a libitTtioft or vamainge.

But the events of the past IS menthe have at once illuetrated and brought about a con-di Lion of thinee under which it is clear that Filiptito independenee would be impoesible fur a long time to come. As a matter of mere preference, most of us want neither colutdee, possemelone, nor preteclorut es in tho Orient; and leant of ell do we want military campaigns, whether in the Philipcines or in China, But in the Philippinte, as cell, as in China, Ito lees than in Cube two years ago, we ere merely doing a part of the ugly but needful Police duty of civilization. Our soldiere are muffering in the Philippines( beesuce Filipino guerrillas decline to accept the American amnesty proposals; and. their refusal is said to be based largely upon the theory that their positten in the football of politics, anti that the lection of Mr. Bryau could mean the triumeh of their mune.

Jr dem, Mr. Bryan should be elected in November it is to be Inferred that the ilemee of the insurgent cause would be rekindled everywhere. But Mr. Bryan NVOtild ryttintri a private eitieen until the 4th of next Mandl; and Mr. Mcihtley's odminietration would, for four menthe, be in a moat difficult predicament.
