There Is but one force of which this coun-

science. This country IS familiar with diff

1t is said that Aguinaldo is savage
do not know whether he is a savage or
not, but | do know that certain documents
emanating from his Government. of which
he is the reputed author, indicate not
merely civilization. but high degree OF
intellectual culture And l say moreover,
that whatever ne may be, 1t does not ie
in the mouth of This nation to impeach MS
civilization or his capacity to make war
II he be a savage, then we have MADE al
lance with savage to make war on
Christian people, and our own position as
a civilized power is impeached. 1t was
by our act that he was landed at Manila
IF there We're no other objections 70
this policy of Conquest it would be enough
to say that 1t involved the existence OF
standing army. Barbarlsm places men
hands at each others threats in destrnc-
ton: civilization employs them on the
bosom of the earth in production Men are
civilized to the extent that they can dis
pense with arms.
These be things which the admins
tration would do well to ponder over.

Everybody knows Bourke Cochran or
knows of him. He is universally rec
ognized as one of the foremost orators
OF America, deep thinker, a careful
student of events, and man who is
not afraid to say what he thinks under
all circumstances.
Mr.. Cochran made an address in Chi
cago last Wednesday, before the Anti
Imperialistic Convention, and he took
a good deal of hide off the administra-
ton. His address cannot be repro
duced as whole, but few specimen
remarks will indicate its tenor:
In dealing with the fruits of the late
war TWO courses are left open to us. One.
tie old course of treating our success as
an opportunity to wrest from the con-
quered Toe the utmost he can be made TO
Yield the other, to establish new stand
ard of justice in the dealings of nations
With each other by refusing to accept eth
er tribute OF territory for ourselves and by
making the conditions OF peace provisional
for improving the conditions OF men.
If, on the other hand we conclude to
accept no other reward than the estab-
l1shment OF free and beneiicent govern
ments in the territories wrested from
Spain, we will show that we did not take
up arms for conquest or piunder bur for
Justice and humanity.
The President proclaiming such a poll
icy SO novel and so enhghIening would
take place in history as alstinct and con-
spleuous as that OF Abraham Lincoln,
White this country would acquire a moral
influence among nations unprecedented
and unparalleled.

sdeeming a the close of successful war

zeIs Tor no other purpose than for the res
cue Of a suffering people from intolerable
oppression, would produce such an effect
any other country to make war for baser
IT would be an inspiring answer to the
universal aspirations for peace which
Brought into existence the recent confer
Sence al The Hague.
"Our Eastern Complications prevented us
from rendering a priceless service TO hui
manity and gaining unreasonable glory
for ourselves at the Hague, but the OPP
portunity is by no means .ost. The policy
of civilization and E,s-aanily may stfl be
adopted by the American people, even if
the President fail to initiate ii, aye, even
II ne should oppose It Indeed, the glory
OF establishing ourselves in the primacy of
civilization will be Increased, not lesseaed

officers who control our government;

be discredited in the eyes of the world if
we .disarmed them by justice and Kindness
rather than by bullets and steel. Nobody
doubts our capacity TO subjugate these
islands The Filipinos themselves do not
dispute it. They do not deny that we can
exterminate them. They only deny that
we can subjugate them.
This country has become great because
of the justice which has always governed
her. There is one thing, and only one
which this nation is not strong enough TO
do, and that is to perpetrate a wrong
