LOOKING back over the events of the
war and since, it will be seen that
every advance of our conquering arm
lippines, has been followed by the i'm
mediate establishment of q civil admi-
nistration that utilized the native ele-
ments as far as possible and was free
and dominated by the single purpose of
lettering conditions and insuring the
we'll being of the natives. In Porto
Rico the American administration has
been notably successful, and the people
are we'll satisfied with the new regime.
The natives and the native press are IN
animous in declaring that the Ameri-
can government of the island has been
to the best advantage Of all. They are
made to feel the responsibility OF gov
ernment, while at the same time the
strong arm of the United States army
is behind the civil Officers to compel

this wanton attack on our troops, at q
time when everything was tending to
an early restoration of peace. The
United States had to wait until the
peace treaty was ratified before she
could take any defioite steps to establish
local self government in the islands.
And then on the very day before the
treaty was to be voted on. whose ra-
LITIGATION would restore peace and
tranquility to the philippines and en-
able free, honest, and stable govern
ment to be established, the Filipinos
attacked our army and brought down
upon themselves the courses of this
great country. There was only one
thing then for the United States to do;
that was to restore and peace assure alb

power of the United States in the Phi

THE article by Ramon Reyes Lala,
reprinted on this page today, is strik-
ing one. 1t shows that we really owe
nothing whatever TO Aguinaldo or to
the faction of his adherents, because of
any sentimental sympathy with his re-
bellion. Aguinaldo has sold himself
out before, and has shown himself to
be man OF low motives. He sdoes not
represent the Filipinos in any sense,
and it is likely that time will show the
islands to be generally in favor of
American occupation. At any rate we
ought not allow ourselves to be led as
tray by the mouthings of this little
brown man.

will give the same cash guarantees

the city might look at the proposition
more favorably. The proposed fran
chise only covers the streets at pres
ent occupied by car lines. What be-
comes of the north side and the east
end? Ell Paso wants system that will
be of some use to people other than

SINCE the United States army first
set foot on the island of Luzon, the
policy has been to work in harmony
with the natives, and to use their es-
tablished institutions and governments
as far as possible. With the advance
of the American armies and the occu-
patton of towns. native civil govern
ments have been set up, native insti-
buttons reOrganized and utilized, and

could be done without sacrificing the

THE attitude of the traitors and cop
perheads who are denouncing the pres
tdeut for trying to put down armed re-
bellion in the Philippines is disgrace
full. Consider the time that has clap
sed. The sixth day of February was
the first on which the American COM
manders in the islands could feel that
they were really working in United
States territory. That was the day the
treaty with Spain was ratified. There
fore that day was the first that can
rightly be considered as Offering OPP
portunity to establish effective native
rule under American protection. But
the very day before the treaty was act
ed on, the Filipinos wantonly attacked
our troops, the movement being pre-
arranged and deliberately executed
with view to aiding the anti-Ameri-
cans in America, in the senate and else
where, to combat the presidents policy.
Why did not the Filipinos and admin
[stration haters wait little while in

Admiral Dewey proposed to do to bet

ably injured themselves by making

IF Dewey had left the Philippines
after his great victory, or if the is
lands had been relinquished to Spain
in the inal settlement, Germany would
undoubtedly have taken them. The
United States has many times the
commercial and strategic Interest in
the Philippines and the coast of Asia
that has Germany, and why should we
give up the great advantages gained
by the fortunes of war for the grati6
cation of few b1eating lambs in this
country who are afraid for the nation
to assume q new responsibility?
