DEBATE IN OPEN SESSION.
Speeches by MessPs. Berry, o. III. Platt,
Bacon and Teller.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-During almost
the entire morning hour to-day the Senate
had under discussion the policy of this coun-
try to be pursued in the Philippine islands,
Mr. Berry, in speech on the resolution
offered by Mr.. Vest, discussed the policy of
expansion without a reference to the con-
stitutional point involved in the Vest resolu-
ton. He spoke from notes, stating his OBJ
iections to the pending treaty of peace. He
declared that he would never vote to place
upon any people policy against which Lee
fought and against which Jackson gave up
his life.
An attempt by Mr.. Bacon to secure a vote
on his resolution, which, in brief, declares
that the United States government will not
make war upon a people seeking for their
freedom. precipitated lively debate. which
was participated in by Mr.. Plat, of Con-
necticut. and Mr.. Teller. Mr.. Bacon de-
cared he would not vote for the treaty UNI
less some such declaration were adopted by
Congress. To this Mr.. Platt took excep-
ton, and delivered a speech in which he
carefully analysed the situation which con-
fronts this country in the Philippines. The
situation, he said, lis critical. Aguinado
is in arms. lie is using arms furnished to
him by the United States. That is the sit
udllOu w NOM SASC Dul liIS CilllCd states
is he in arms against? The ratification of
this treaty VIII give the United States the
right to say to Aguinaldo: We are in con-
troll in these islands. Attack US if you dare
In a short time the defiance of our authority
will melt away and government will be es-
taDlished in those islands UNNECESSARILY su-
perior 10 any that Aguinaldo could possibly
make
Mr.. Bacon interrupted Mr.. Plat to say
that the adoption OF his resolution would
insure the ratification of the treaty
Mr.. Piatt maintained that the situation
presented was not reasonable. No declara-
ton of policy could now be made What"
he inquired with emphasis will some SEN
ator tell me- is the administration to do?
Are we to recall Dewey and Otis and our
troops from those islands? l say that the
man or body who would do that would just
Iy receive the condemnation of all
After again discussing briefly the resolu-
ton, Mr. Plat inquired of Mr.. Bacon: DO
] understand the senator will not vote for
the treaty unless this resolution is adopted2"
Mr.. Bacon replied: THAT is true Con-
tinuing, however, he said he would modify
his statement by saying that he would not
vote for the treaty unless some declaration
embodying the principle of his resolution
was adopted.
In other words" said Mr. PIatt, IF that
Is the policy Of the government it must be
declared now?"
To this question Mr. Bacon replied in the
affirmative. Further explaining his position
Mr.. Bacon, In answer to question by Mr..
Teller (Col), said he would not vote for
the treaty unless the resolution adopted by
the Senate had also been adopted by the

this was always done even when the circuit
included other counties-therefore,
Resolved, That this meeting views with
alarm the passage of this bill in the in
creased burden that it will impose upon the
people in maintaining court Which We re-
gard as unnecessary.
Resolved, That we appeal to the Legisla-
ture to refrain from imposing upon the peo-
pie of this county any additional burden for
the maintenance of courts, believing that
existing demands are already beyond rea-
son, and we further appeal to the Legislature
and ask that it repeal the law establishing
Laporte county, and we believe, from in
quiry and investigation, that if left to a vote
nine-tenths of the taxpayers would concur
in these resolutions"

Nor do l." said Mr.. Bacon, but I am

markable. Outside the Senate it would be

warning against a similar failure Of self
government from similar causes.
