The only way in which II can be
learned precisely what the people OF
the Philippines want IN the line OF gov
eminent is TO restore order absolutely,
repair the ravages OF war, give the peo-
pie an opportunity TO contrast intelli-
gently the government which the United
States viii set over them with that
which Spain gave them. and then, IL
necessary and advisable. submit to
them whether they prefer the govern
ment or protection of the United States
or not; always keeping in view the fact,
however. that the basic principle of a
democratic form Of government. is the
rule Of the majority. No matter how
vigorous the objections OF the Tsgal
minority in the Philippines may be IN
remaining under the dominion Of the
United States. II the majority OF the
inha bitants OF the islands think other
wise, no provision OF the Declaration Of
Independence and no theorizing can
alter the fact that the consent OF the
governed means the consent Of the ma
jority of the governed. not of each
separate one OF the factions into which
a minority may be split. II majority
of the people Of the United States and
a majority Of the people of the Philip
pines each desire that the islands
should be independent. then independ-
enee can and will be granted them.
Failing such an expression OF opinion,
the islands VIII remain under the Juris-
diction and control OF the United States.
This is government by consent of the
governed as understood and practiced
in any democratic republic.
