AGUINALD0S ATTITUDE
His Speech at the Recent Celebra-
tion at Tarlac.
PHILIPPINES FOR THE rIL1PINOs.

In a Speech to Cubans General Gual--
berto Gomez Declares That RevoIu-
tIon VIII Inevitable Return Unless
Cuba Is Declared Independents.
Manila, July 13.-A copy of Tho;
Independencia has reached ManiiaTon%
tanning a speech which Aguina1dos:
made during the recent celebration at.
Tarlac of the anniversary of the proc-s
lamation of Filipino independence. II
is in part as follows:
"FilipinO-beloved daughter of the
ardent sun of the tropics, commended
by providence to the care of noble
Spain, be not ungrateful to her
who warmed you with the breath Of
her own culture and civilization. 1t
is true she sought to crush thy as
piration for independence, as a loving 4
mother opposes separation forever
from the daughter of her bosom. This
but proves the excess of affection and
love Spain feels for thee.
Filipino, delicate flower of the east. n
scarcely eight months weaned from tbs
breast of thy mother. thou hast dared
to brave great and powerful nation,
such as is the United States, after
barely organizing and disciplining thy
little army. Yet we reply, we will be
slaves to none. nor allow ourselves to
be deceived by soft words. Let us con- .
tinue to defend our fatherland until
independence is assured, for this Is
Justice. We shall see at last that the .
great American nation will ackn0wl-
edge the right which ia on our side. 8
That doctrine of the great Monroe. II
that America is for Americans, Is not
forgotten. Just as we affirm that the
Philippines are for the Filipinos.
Some states of the American Union
have arisen in our favor. Especially Is
the Democratic party convinced that
both victors and vanquished will lose
precious lives. Thus many Of the peo-
pie and many statesmen censure Presi-
dent Mckinley as inhuman for having
ordered his military representatives at !
Manila to seek means to bring about
hostilities with the Filipinos. These
facts prove that they wished to try US
to see if we are able to live up to the
second color of our banner, red, which
signifies courage, heroism and martyr
dom.
In spite of their expressed desire to
dominate all the Philippines, well con- !
vinced are they that we fight with JUS
tice and right on our side and that n
autonomy is all show of deceit, only
serving to save certain accumulated
wealth. We have meyer concealed our
aspirations, that we aspire but to in
dependence, that we will struggle on y
to obtain it, perhaps from those who n
are now our enemies and tomorrow
will be our allies, as they were for the
overthrow of the power of Spain"
