sh flag and last vestige of authority de-
parted from the islands never to return
The soveignty of the United States was
established and recognized by the natives
with all conditions imposed. excepting the
Philippines or more properly speaking. the
Tagal tribe. When Dewey destroyed the
Spanish feet SPANS ability to maintain
order in the islands was destroyed. It then
developed on the United States to protect
life and property. This was not matter of
choice, but of duty. The United States could
not avoid this responsibility without dis
honor. We could not invite Spanish author
ity back to the Philippines. We could not
relieve ourselves of responsibility by trans
ferring authority to Aguinaldo, who repre-
sented an organized revolt against US. What
is our duty in those islands? It is to provide
them with government at least better
than that they enjoyed under Spain. We
can not leave them founder in their attempts
at self-government It is our duty to de-
velop in those people capacity for self
government. The Creator endowed man
with rights to life, liberty and pursuit of
happiness, but not of self-government. Self
government is not right but capacity.
capacity. We are given the providential OPP
portunlty to develop this capacity. What
nation is better fitted for this task than ours?
The late war worked great good in our
borders. 1t has buried sectional differences.
There no wounds to be longer healed, or
stings of defeat to be cherished, and we go
forward to solve the problems that confront
US as united prosperous nationality.
