The extreme View on one side ia that

to that view therefore. .le United States

BY the other extreme view the United
States government IL free TO do lust as II

Perhaps there Is justification for this
last View In the fact that the Fnlplnos
were Spanish eubiects nomlnally when
they broke the terms OF the protocol and
thereby released the United States from

tina, which is likely to be followed Is that
General Otis Is justified In doing anything
that Is necessary to protect ais army and
all American and foreign interests in Ma
nila, even though this obliged h,m to as
sumo the offensive ana to go outside Of
the old lines in pursuit Of the insurgents
who may be seeking to reorganlze ana
an intention OF attacking again or even
threatening the Americans.
