Democrats are shrewd in poll

out circulars to postmastere ask

AguiasIdO's SCheme ESPoscd-No Promises Have
Been Made Admiral Dewey Signs end Endorses

american Sovereignty Must Be Maintained.

The commission appointed by
President Mckinley to investigate
conditions in the Philippines has
submitted preliminary report
The commission consisted of ].
6. Schurman, Admiral Dewey,
Charles DENLY and Dean c.
Worcester. After reciting how,
at the suggestion of Admiral
Dewey, Aguinaldo was permitted
to go to Manila and showing that
there had never been any prom :
Uses of independence or anything
else made to the insurgent chief
and how afterwards he insisted on
looting Manila, the report goes on
to say:
CHOW for the first time rose the
idea of the national independence.
Aguinaldo issued a proclamation
in which he took the responsibility
of promising it to his people on
behalf of the American govern
ment, although he admitted freely
in private conversation with mem
bers of his cabinet that neither
Admiral Dewey nor any other
American had made him and such
promise"
The report states that Aguin-
aldo wished to attack the Ameri-
cans when they landed at Parana-
que, but was deferred by lack of
arms and ammunition. From that
point on there was growing
friction between the Filipinos and
the American troops.
"Tere was no conferences"
says the report, "between the Off
GERS of the Filipinos and our off
GERS with a view to operating
against the Spaniards, nor was
there cooperation of any kind ..
y
"There never was any precon-
certed operations or any combined
movement by the United States
and Filipinos against the Span.
iards."
Reference is made to Aguinal'
dos demand that he be allowed tc
loot Manila and take the arms OF
the Spaniards. The latter demand
is said to confirm the statemen
that he intended to get possession
of arms to attack the Americans
Further evidence of the hostile in
tention of the Filipino5 was foun'
in the organization of the "Popu
lar Club" which later on furnish
ed local militia to attack the Am
orleans. The DEGREES of the Fill
ipinO congress are also cited a

1t is shown that a considerable
element in the Filipino congress
wished to address to Presiden
Mckinley request not to aban

stage the Paris conference wa

ippines.) The president was ais
to be asked his desire as to tn
form of government he wished t

was understood the attack wonl

iS4 al N1CIIlI, tHTOugh
a commission, to arrive at a mu-
tual understanding with Aguinal-
do, as TO the intentions, purposes
and desires of the Filipino people.
This brings the story to the out
break on the evening of the 4th
OF February, with the attack upon
the American troops following the
action of the Nebraskan sentinel.
The commission, in concluding
this chapter, says: "After the
landing of our troops, Aguinaldo
made up his mind it would be ne
cessary to fight the Americans
and after the making Of the treaty
of peace at Paris, this determine
ton was strengthened. He did
not openly declare that he intend
to fight the Americans, but he ex-
cited everybody and especially the
military by claiming independence,
and it is doubtful whether he had
the power to check or control the
army at the time hostilities broke
out. Deplorable as war is, the
one in which we are now engaged
was unavoidable. We were at
tackled by a bold, adventurous and
enthusiastic army. No alternative
was left to us, except ignominous
retreat. 1t is not to be conceived
that any American sanctioned the
surrender of Manila to the insur-
gents. Our obligations to other
nations and to the friendly Filipi-
nos and to our flag and to our
selves demand that force should
be met with force. Whatever
the future of the PHILIPPINES may
be there is no course open to US
now except the prosecution of
war until the insurgents are re-
duced to submission. The COM
mission is of the opinion there has
been no time since the destruction
of the Spanish squadron by Ad-
miral Dewey when it was posi-
bic to withdraw our forces from
the islands either with honor to
ourselves or with safety to the in
habitants."
The efforts at Cancellation with
Aguinaldo and his various COM
missions, are set forth in detail.
These commissioners were as
sured of the benefcent purposes
of the United States and the pres
ident's readiness to grant the Fill
ipino people as large a measure
of home rule, and as ample liber-
ty as was consistent with the ends
of government, "subject only to
recognition Of the sovereignty Of
the United States-a point
which, being established, the
commission invariably refused
even to discuss"
The commission adds that moth.

AguinaIdo's emissaries were with,

Courteous reception was accord
ed to the insurgent commissions
and earnest appeals made to stoE
further bloodshed, all witnessing
"the spirit of patient conciliation,'
exhibited by the American com
mission in endeavoring to reacl
an amicable adjustment with th'
insurgents as well as the obdur'
acy of Aguinaldo. The repor
sums up the result of these fruit,

"The Filipinos are not a nation,
but variegated assemblage Of
} different tribes and peoples; and
their loyalty is still of the tribal
type
Concerning their intellectual
capacities, the commission says
GAS to the general intellectual
cpacities of the Filipinos, the
commission is disposed to rate
them high. But, excepting in a
limited number of persons, these
capacities have not been devel-
oped by education or experience,
The masses Of the people are I'M
education. That intelligent pub
lie opinion on which popular gov
eminent rests does not exist in
the Philippines. And it cannot
exist until education has elevated
the masses, broadened their in
tellectual horizon and disciplined
their faculty of Judgment And,
even then, the power of self gov
eminent cannot be assumed with
out considerable previous train
ing and experience under the
guidance and tutelage of an en-
lightened and liberal foreign pow
er. For the bald fact is that the
Filipinos have never had any ex-
perience in governing them
selves"
"The most that can be expect
ed of them is to cooperate with
the Americans in the administra-
ton of general affairs, from Ma
Mia as a center, and to undertake
subject to American contro or
guidance, Gas may be found nee
essary), the administration of pro-
vincial and municipal affairs.
Fortunately there are educated
Filipinos, though they do not con-
stitute a large proportion of the
entire population, and their sup
port and services will be of meal
culable value in inaugurating and
maintaining the new government.
AS education advances and ex-
perience ripens, the natives may
be trusted with larger and more
important parts of the govern
ment; self-government constant
ly kept in view as goal. In
this way, American sovereignty
over the archipelago will prove a
great political boon to the people
"Should our power by aNy ia
tally be withdrawn, the commits
sion believes the government o.
the Philippines would speedily
lapse into anarchy, which wOulc
excuse, if it did not necessitate
the intervention of other powers
and the eventual division of the
islands among them.
"Only through American Oc'
5 cupation therefore, is the idea 0
: free self-government and unit
