we might not have been able to throw off
| the British yoke a century ago. French
assistance was more directly sought by
us than was American assistance by the
Filipinos. and our obligations to France
were much clearer than the obligations of
the Filipinos to us. But we should have
regarded it as an outrageous usurpatlon
| if the French had set up claim to the
United States because they had helped us
the last drop of blood. By what process
of reasoning can we arrive at the conclu-
sion that our claim upon the Philippines
is any better than was the claim of
France upon the United States, or the
right of the Filipinos to decide upon and
than ours was century sago9 Isn't it a
fact that in taking possession of the Phil
ippines we are giving might the pre-
oedence of right, and are completely turn
ing our backs upon the principle laid
down in orr Declaration of Indepen-
deDce that government derives it's just
powers from the consent of the governeds
We know that it is urged that the con-
sent of the governed theory only applies
to people capable Of self government, and
that the Filipinos have not the requisite
qualifications but the doubt about the
ability of the people of Cuba to govern
themselves is scarcely less than the doubt
about the Filipinos, yet we propose to let
them make the experiment and only gov
ern them ourselves when 1t has been
demonstrated that they are incapable of
self government. Why are not the Fill
ipinos entitled to be treated with like
considerations In short what is there in

the governed that we can consistently

sary for our own protection that we per-
manently hold and govern the Philip

ON THE CAMPANiA.
A Great Crowd Saw the Peace Commits
sfoners Sail Away.

New York, September II. There was a
large gathering of people at the pier
when the Campania was being made
ready to start on her trip to England,
with the American Peace Commissioners
on board. The latter, during the voyage
across the Atlantic, will occupy suites of
staterooms on the upper deck of the
steamer. Some of the members of the
retinue are accompanied by their wives
and daughters.
The staterooms Of the commissioners
were filled with flowers which had been
sent to them by friends. The luggage of
all the party is quite extensive and the
Department of State and the United
States seal. They are addressed to the
United States embassy at Paris, France.
The commissioners reached the steamer
at a little before one O'Clock this after
noon. 1t can be stated that the commits
sion goes to Paris fully prepared to fol-
low a course of action calmly mapped out
or them.
It is said that sx-Secretary Of State
Day, who is at the head of the commits
sion, previous to his appointment as
peace negotiator, expressed his opposition
to the acquisition of all the islands of
the Philippine group, and that Senator
Davis is an ardent expansionist.i Senator
Frye is believed to be in favor of retain
ing the Philippines. This is also said to
be the idea of Whitelaw Reid, but Sena-
tor Gray is thought to be adverse to the
holding of foreign territory.
The commissioners refused to affirm or
DENY the sentiments which they were
months ago said to have expressed. They,
however, declared that personal ideas
would not prevail at the sessions of the
commission, because their instructions
covered every point that could possibly
be raised by Spain S representative at the
hoard.

1t is difficult to see how we can consis-
tently object to the proceedings of Aguin-
aldo and his national assembly looking
to the establishment of government for
the Philippines. AS far as appears the
insurgent leader has undertaken to con-
suit the people who are to be governed as
to what kind of government they will
have. now that Spanish sovereignty has
been ended. On what ground can
we oppose such a proceeding as
that Our Declaration of Independence
asserts that governments derive their
great powers from the consent of the gov
erned, and if that be trae, powers which
they derive in any other way, by force for
instance, are not just. Aguinaldo, ap-
parently. is trying to set up a govern
ment founded upon the consent of the
governed, and If he does that on what
ground can we take exceptions to it. We
whipped a Spanish fleet at Manila and
subsequently took possession OF the city
with our troops, but how can we derive
form either or both these acts any right
TO set up a government there without the
consent of the people to be governed? II
may be said that except for our assist
ance the Filipinos would still be under
the dominion fsSpain, and that is proba-
bly, true, but it may be replied that
except for the assistance Of the French

A GREAT ARMY.
1t VIII be Needed for some Time to
Come.

Washington. September 17.-Gen. Miles
and acting Secretary of War Meiklejohn,
called on the President today concerning
several important questions involved in
the reorganization of the army on the
basis of the changed conditions arising
since the war. This, 1t is stated is not
to be peace basis. but rather an inter-
mediate state between, war basis
and peace basis owing to the many re-
ouirements in Cuba, Porto Rico, the
Philippines, Hawaii and elsewhere.
AS result of this talk with the .Presi-
dent the changes to be made were pretty
fully matured, but they will not take
the form of definite orders until early
next week or soon thereafter. In general,
the plan consists in reducing the volun-
teer army about one half, which branch
of the work is already well under way
and then redistributing the remaining
forces, regular and volunteer to our new
possessions and dependencies, viz: Ma
Mia, Hawaii, Porto Rico, Cuba, the La
drones, etc., at the same time maintain
ing sufficient garrisons in the United
States The number Of men required
for our outlying possessions is now being
carefully considered, but final decision
is dependent somewhat upon the decision
of the commissioners at Havana, San
Juan and Paris.
In the redistribution of troops, new
military department. will be created, IN
Guiding Cuba and Porto Rico. 1t was
thought at first that the garrisons IN
these islands would be made part OF
one of the southern departments OF the
army. Gen. Miles is satisfied, however,
that they should be kept distinct from
the army organization within the states
and a separate department. for the An
titles will result. The name OF the new
department has not yet been fixed.
Besides determining the number Of men
for the several garrisons in Hawaii,
Manila, Porto Rico, Cuba and elsewhere,
the question of selecting the regiments
for the several duties is being gone over.
The whole subject is being considered.
not so much as a war measure, as there
is little idea that the troops will be called
into actual service in any quarter, but
rather as q means of establishing adequate
military and policing forces to sustain
the military form of government which
necessarily must be kept in operation in
all these localities save Hawaii for some
time to come.
The Portland daily press. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1862-1921, 1898-09-19

1t seems to be admitted that the peace
commissioners have received def mite in
structions from the administration as to
the demands to be made upon Spain, and
that they will not be permitted to vary
them in any important particular. Our
demands will be laid before the Spanish
commissioners as soon as they meet, and
q speedy answer required. If it be in the
affirmative the commissioners will pro.
coed to arrange the details and draw up
a formal treaty of peace. If they are re-
jected the fact will be reported to Wash
ington, and unless modifying instructions
are received the commission will dissolve.
1t is scarcely possible. however, that the
Spaniards will reject our demands what.
ever they may be, though they may hag-
gle little. The effect of rejection would
be to reopen the conflict, and eventually
impose upon Spain severer demands.

1t is gratifying to see that Republican
conventions are generally resolving in
favor of an investigation to determine
the truth or falsity of the charges made
against the commissary and medical de-
partments of the army. Whatever the
facts may be the public has SO thoroughly
absorbed the idea that there was serious
mismanagement in these departments
that it will not be satisfied until an in
curry has been made, and. in case the
charges are proved, the guilty parties
punished.

The case of Marion Grace Perkins is a
very remarkable instance of mistaken
Identification. Not only had the father
of the girl recognized the features of his
daughter in the dsad body as he sup
posed, beyond all doubt, but other per-
sons who had known Miss Perkins were
equally positive. Nor did the indentifca.
ton rest upon general resemblances. A
dentist testified that the filling in the
teeth of the dead girl was precisely like
that in the teeth of Miss Perkins. The
Identification had apparently impressed
everybody connected with the case as

The Spanish ministry has received
srom the Cortes and the Queen the au-
thority needed to enable them to cede
territory to the United States. This prac-
tically amounts to vote on the part OF
the Cortes to abandon Cuba and Porto
Rico, and the philippines if we demand
them. 1t was bitter pill for the Cortes
to take, ard it is not strange that it was
not swallowed without many violent
ohiurPations.
