How the Filipino Flag Triamphantly
sailed the Seas.

Manila, January Within a few hours
of the proclamation issued by Gen. Otis
in behalf of President Mckinley, the
agents of Aguinaldo handbilled Manila
with manifesto which attracted con-
siderable attention. The revolutionary
President protested against Gen. Otis
signing himself military governor of the
Philippine islands. .Aguinaldo declared
he had never agreed at Singapore, Hong
Kong or elsewhe TO recognize the
Sovereignty of the Americans here, and
insists that he returned to the Philippines
on an American warship solely to con-
ouer the Spaniards and win indepen-
aenoe. In conclusion, Aguinaldo declares
that he had native foreigners as witness
es that the American forces recognized
not only by acts thkt Filipinos were
belIigerent, but by ppblicly saluting the
Filipino flag as 1t piuinphnntly sailed
the '.seas before the eyes OF all nations. 4"

Dur esteemed compatriot,

Our esteemed oompatriot, Gen.
Aguinaldo of Luzon, whom some
OF our ELUSIVE statesmen used to style
the George Washington of the Philip
pines" when they we're making touching
appeals to the American people not to
abandon him, has apparently lost caste
with our lingo friends. As long as he
was engaged in liberating his country
from the Spaniards he was George Wash
inQton, but now that he is disposed to
insist that no government shall be set
up In the Philippines without the con-
sent of the governed-he has evidently
been studying our Declaration OF lndepen-
dspce written by MIR. Thomas Jefferson
he has ceased to be George Washington
and is more like Benedict Arnold. There
Is no longer any claim sat up that we
ought not to abandon him. Indeed our
lingo friends are evidently very sorry
that he was not abandoned long ago; and
the thing that is bothering them particu-
larry now is how to abandon him. II be
were only obliging and would take q
lump sum and go to Hong Kong where
we plckoo uiIu up ~ WouAu " sieae
relief. But apparently calling him
George Washington and extoiling his
patriotism has pulled him up, and he
wants to keep right on being George
Washington and set up government
resting upon the consent of the governed.
But this Is not exactly what our lingo
friends want. They wanted him to stop
being George Washington just as soon as
he had liberated his country from the
Spaniards. This he refused to do. Now
they are sorry they called him George
Washington at all, and wish they had
represented him as he really was a
boodler and brigand. After appealing
to the people with tears in their eyes
for several months not to abandon him
because he was such o patriot 1t is rather
awkward to recommend shooting him f;
but apparently this Is the only way in
which he can be effectually abandoned.

the coming week in arguing the constitu-
tionality Of annexing territory without
the intention of making it into states.
Senator Hosr is going to speak along that
line and so are Senators Mason and sew
eral others. While discussion of this
sort may be interesting it is not likely to
be very profitable. If the Philippines are
annexed by Legislative action the prospect
that the Supreme court will interfere is
SO small rs not to be worth talking
about. The real argument against an
nexation Is that 1t is inexpedient, be
cause 1t will impose upon us tremendous
burdens without any adequate recon-
pense.
