Why Any Declaration NOW:

A resolution declaring purpose on the
part of the United States to retire from
the Philippine Islands Immediately upon
the ratification of the treaty of peace Win
Spain would not receive a single vote in the
Senate. The most extreme of the ant-eX-
pansionists concede the existence OF DIM
Guilty there and the necessity for American
occupation and control for awhile. They
do not undertake to say for how long, be-
cause that is beyond their ken. They are
leaving that for the future to decide.
Their proposition at best is vague, and be-
ing vague is unwise. Why should Congress
at this time make any declaration at all
on the subject of the Philippines?
1t cannot be asserted too often or with
too great emphasis that the case of the
Philippines is not analogous to that of
Cuba. We are committed to free govern
ment for Cuba, and when it is organized we
can oversee with ease and entire safety
its start in the world. We can give it
from time to time, while necessary,
steadying hand. The western hemisphere
is the home of republics, and the United
States is at the head of them, and possesses
ample power, it can take the ffedgeling I'M
der its wing.
But in the matter of the Philippines We
Siioulu LHoNe, III any OlTecIlOn, Win the
greatest caution. Free governments in that
quarter of the world are unknown, and
undesired. If one is to appear it will be
our work, and we must be willing and pre-
pared to help sustain it. 1t will necessarily
be subjected to a very heavy pressure from
both within and without. The east is the
home of intrigue, and all the problems
there just now are unusually threatening
For US to set the Filipinos UP in business,
therefore, and then retire from the scene,
leaving them to take care of themselves,
would be like launching a cookie boat to
the mercy of storm.
While the United States remains in the
Philippines there will be no foreign inter-
ference there, the people of the islands
Will enjoy the best government of any
people Whereabouts, and the interests of this
country in the commercial DEVELOPMENT of
emma will be amply safeguarded. Are not
those considerations sufficient for the
present?

Japan's Bear Pen.

Ihey are rapidly getting the pace of Iegis-
iatlVe government over in Japan Recent
dispatches from there indicate that the diet
has been having a regular reichsrath sort
Of time. Indeed. some of the scenes en-
acted in the name of elaboration upon the
affairs of the nation rival in their intensity
any of those which were witnessed in the
Austrian bear PEN a few seasons ago.
One of the representatives. Momma nv
name, is said to have become so violent in
his presentation of an urgent notion
that he was ordered out of the chamber
But he refused to go or to be dragged
forth, holding on to the desks with his
hands despite the efforts of officers to re-
move him. This caused further disorder.
1t is said, and after several members had
been elected the president dissolved the
sitting and was chased out of the chamber
by Tanakana. The trouble arose from the
efforts to increase the taxation to meet the
new burdens. The opposition is radical in
its determination to resist all efforts to
press through the diet any proposition to
increase the taxes. Japan is learning that
one of the first essentials of representative
government is seif-control 1t is not to be
questioned that this intelligent, progressive
people will eventually come to understand
all the duties pertaining to citizenship and
administration and establish a safe. COM
pact and rational system of public man
agement which will conserve all of the ma
uonal energies and resources and permit a
wholesome expansion in all directions
Meanwhile these scenes in the diet may be
taken as ebulitions of feeling naturally fol-
lowing a change in the national organiza-
ton
