1t is altogether probable that every
Republican vote in the Senate can be
secured for the ratification of the treaty
by adopting the Bacon resolution before
u vote is taken ON the treaty. This reso-
luton Is as follows:
Resolved, That the ratification of the
pending treaty Of pence with Spain shall
in no wise determine the policy to be
pursued by the United States in regard
to the Philippines, nor shall 1t commit
this government to colonial policy;
nor is 1t intended 60 embarrass the es-
adjustment of a government by the PEG.
pie of those islands whenever conditions
make such proceeding hopeful of sue
cessful and desira BILE results.
There Is nothing in this resolution that
Is incompatible with the position the
advocates of the treaty have taken. since
debate was begun in the Senate. On the
contrary it is merely putting into the
form of a resolution declarations which
have been made over and over again by
their spokesman in the Senate. 1t is not
q definite statement of what our policy
shall be when we get possession of these
ISLANDS. but merely a disclaimer that the
ratification of the treaty commits US to
any particular policy in regard to them.
Congress can still treat them as 1t sees fit
can directly annex them, can treat them
rs colonies to be governed in different
manner from our existing territories,
can treat them as Cuba is being treated,
or do anything else it pleases not In
defiance of the constitution. All the res
olution does is to declare that we are not
committed by the ratification Of the treaty
TO any particular policy in: regard to
them. That being the cass. it is difficult
to see why there should be any objection
to it, unless thare be sinister purpose
on the part of some of the ;Iuperialists
to claim in the future that the ratification
of this treaty constrains US to a certain
line of policy--the line that they favor
in regard to these islands.
