II heard it said that if only 4 frac
ton OF the Filipino population is /,
arms agalns us, and that the grea
majority of the people are ready to &C
cept American sovereignty, why is i
we are compelled to send q great arm,
to the islands? / answer, first, be-
cause we are waging the most humane
war in history. If it was simply .
matter of killing, we should not need
SO large an army. Two regiments o
troops could go where they chose in
the islands of Luzon today and kill tc
their hearts content without serious
risk. 1t is because we are ATTEMPTING
TO protect the peaceable inhabitants
from the depredations of the lawless
that we need SO large force.
FINALLY as TO the way out. Is i,
conceivable that we should withdraw
our troops, abandoning our friends tc
the vengeance of our enemies and the
people at large to civil war and an
archy? There IS but one answer to
this question. Our troops must STAY
until armed resistance has ceased and
public confidence has been fully re-
stored. The day will come, sooner OF
later, when native soldiers under
American officers, under officers OF
ther own, will do large share of the
work that remains to be done. In the
matter OF autonomy, we have already
made safe beginning, and the expert
ments in municipal and provincial
governments which are even now in
progress will eventually furnish safe
basis for congressional action.n
In closing, let me say. that there
does not live an "anti-imperialist'
who has more sincere regard for the
protection of the Philippine islanders
or keener interest in their present or
future welfare than myself. have
great faith in them. believe that
under our guidance they will make
rapid progress in civilization and will
soon be able to take an important
share in the burden of their country,
but l know that if the full weight of
that burden were thrown upon them
today they would inevitably sink un-
der it."
"Those who affect to believe that we
are creating bloody disorder by our
presence in the Philippines, that the
natives would continue to hate us if we
gave them good government, that they
would be better off under a very bad
government of their own than very
good one administered in part by onrs,
and that the only logical and honora-
BILE course open to us is to withdraw
our forces and leave the peaceable and
law-abiding natives of the Philippine
islands at the mercy of Aguinaldo and
his army, may be sincere in their con-
victions, but by freely giving voice to
them, they are encouraging the ambi-
tious Tagalo leader to prolong hope
less struggle. The prolongation of this
struggle is costing us millions of dol
lars and, what is far worse, good
American blood. Let history fix the
responsibility for it.

q business man who is in position

the lands in view are mostly IN Paci-

tiguous to Willapa bay, Grsys Har Dor

On the point of price demanded,
Mr.. Weyerhauser said: Fifteen years
ago half dollar per Thousand stum-

He agrees that the shipping facilities
