Conditions Examined.

Let us, therefore, consider first the conditions
that exist in the Philippine islands 1t is ncces-
sary to do this in determining whether we can
Immediately withdraw from them, or IL we stay
for a short time, whether We can then give them
scf.govcrnment and withdrawn other words,
whether we can safely pursue another policy
than the one inaugurated by the present national
administration.
The population Of the Philippine islands is es
timlto1 at ahout 1O.nOOOOO people These peo
pies are divided into hostile tribes, the chief
among them being the TagolaS who are led by
corrupt scoundrcl named AGuinaldo, who first
plotted the murder and massacre OF the soldiers
Of the United States. and foreigners resident in
Manila, aud after being discovered made a night
attack upon our troops. OF the sixty tribes into
which the Philippine population is divided many
are continually at war with each other. The
population is largely Malay, and has among its
members not few naked savnges and even can
nihalS 1t is indoent and its leaders are un-
scrupuous and corrupt
In his speech before the Hamilton club, OF Chit
csro in November, Professor Worcester, Of the
first Philippine commission, in the course OF a
considerable discussion OF the crimes committed
by the Philippines upon their own trbcsmen
SAYS:
''In southern Luzon the Bicos had arisen
against the Tagalos at several points and were
asking for help. The Tagalog general. Iucban
had eXtorted some S20O,0OO from the inhabitants
oi Samar and Leyte and had put in into his
pocket The people Of Iiohol were calling for
aid The Moros AMI insurgents had fallen to
fighting each other in Mindanao, where we had
not landed a man Tomas Aguinaldo an in.
surgent official and cousin Of the dictator. had
gone to Mamburao, on the west coast Of Min
doro, and had there organized a genuine pirdt-
ical expedition with the avowrd Object of plum.

amanes islands Palawan, Masbatc, Subuyan,
and Romhon. This plan hos been carried out
and he had returned to Mdnburao heavily laden

Consent of Governed.

II the Democratic party is so solietious that
there shall not he any government without the
full and free consent OF the governed, | would
ask them TO agree to count the ballot Of the
black men in the south before they offer il to the
miciyilized savages Of the Philippines.
And / say to you that II these semi civilized
peoples are to be dealt with justly, humanely
and tenderly, and lifted up into better and
nobler civilization, they will fare better with the
party OF Abraham Lincoln and william Mckinley
than with the party of Benjamin r, Tillman, OF
