Why Not Get Together?

What is the need OF any further con-
tention between the Bryan Democrats
and Republican expansionists over the
future of the Philippines? We do not
understand that anybody is contending for
the annexation of those islands to the
United States. No organ or leader of
any party proposes, desires, or expects
that any OF those islands will ever be
Incorporated into our Union. Such a pur-
pose has been distinctly disavowed by the
Republican press, and We know Of no
Republican statesman or politician who
Is not in sympathy with that disavowal.
Mr.. Bryan's proposition is ''independ-
cnce for the Filipino5 under a protector
ate To be sure. that is not quite clear.
for nation under a prOtectOrate cannot
have fun measure of independence But
il Is fair 10 assume that Mr.. Bryan means
such a kindly and unselish protectorate
rs would look toward and lead up to in
dependence. The sovereignty of the ISL
ands must Of necessity remain In posses
sion Of the protecting power.
The Bryan plan would compel the
United States 10 be responsible 10 all
nations for the good behavior Of the Fill
pinos and would require all necessary in
reference in their domestic concerns. In
fact. 1t would be just the sort Of arrange
ment that Is contemplated by most, If not
all. Americans who believed. with Mr.
Bryan, that It was the imperative duty Of
the Senate to ratify the treaty.
We know of no advantage that the
United States would sacrifice in adopting
the relation of protector toward the Fill
pin0s. IL would not diminish our respon-
siblities IN the slightest degree nor would
II cdrtal our authority. We have never
intended and could not possibly intend TO
deprive those people or such participancy
in their government as they might be
found capable OF. on the contrary. II Is
the desire Of the administration that they
should qualify themselves for the man
agement Of their own local affairs. We
cannot flnd any definition Of the word
'prOtectOrate" that would leave ground
for an issue between the friends OF that
plan aud their feliow-citlzens whom they
call "imperialists."

THE President Has Justified Himself"

The ST. Louis Republic Is one OF the
few regular Democratic papers that ind
themselves able to do Justice TO the Pres
ident ia their discussion of his address
before the Home Market Club in Boston.
While such independent Democratic jour
nails as the Brooklyn Eagle, New York
Times. and Louisville CoUrier-Journal
take occasion to express satisfaction with
the Presidents frank deliverances on that
occasion. most of the regular organs
those which stood for Bryan in lsS6-unite
with two or three iEcoTTigibie Mugwump
papers in grumbling because the Presi-
dent did not lay down definite line of
policy in relation TO the Philippines. They
ignore the fact that he virtually referred
the whole matter 10 the people and the
peoples Congress, where ii belongs. Had
he taken any other course. and especially
if he had done just what they attack him
for not doing, they would have assailed
him as a usurper, dictator. and thrown
out sundry hints about the man On
horseback"
But the Republic. which represents a
very large Democratic constituency ina
Democratic State and section has the
manliness 10 say that the President, in
that much-talked-of speech. has presented
in a clear and cogent manner the facts
which caused American authority to arise
in the Philippines. and the complex con-
ditions which make it a moral obligation
upon the government 10 retain them I'M
I'll peace and order and stability have
been secured TO their inhabitants. The
Republic Is especially pleased with the
fact that in answering the question
What shall be done with the islands,"
Mr.. Mckinley SAYS that their future, now
that the treaty has been ratified. is in
the hands of the American people. The
whole subject, he declares. is now with
Congress. and Congress is the voice, the
Judgment. and the conscience Of the
American people. Mr.. Mckinley" the
Republic says in conclusion. has justi-
fed himself, but not the imperialists, by
his Home Market speech"
