'1DEAR Boy LETTERs-No. 6.
nv Dear Boy:

Ny Dear Boy:
So your employer, Mr.. Skinner, says.
that 1.-THE Filipinos ought to have their
liberty and United States soldiers ought
to be in better business than making war
on an innocent people and s~trangling the
life out of a new republic"
Since Mi. Skinner has put in a nutshell
the substance Of Mr.. Bryan's speech, T
shall dispose Of Mr.GBryan and the whole
anti-imperialist crew in answering Mr..
Skinner. I know that you have but little
time to read and shall use the fewest
words possible, as I shall endeavor to
give you q clear, intelligent view Of the
situation over in our new possessions.
J.. Our soldiers are not s~trangling the
life. out of a new republic, for the very
good reason that there never was any
republic in the Philippines. A republic
is a government by the people through
their chosen representatives. The people
of the Philippines never were consulted
about the so-called Filipino Republic.
Its head was a tricky young Tagalog
named Aguinaldo, who proclaimed him
self dictator and e%ndeavored to. make
himself so by force Of arms. Republics
are not governed by a dictator. The form
of government which took the place of a
constitution in the so-called republic was
a lengthy personal decree Of Aguinaldo
himself. It was not a republic but a
despotism which he sought to establish.
The people Of the Philippine Islands are
made up of many different tribes, Negri-
tos, Tagalogs, Moros, Visayans, and more
than fifty others. These tribes are sep.
arate in blood, sympathies, and to a large
extent in language. In addition to them
there are thousands Of Spaniards, Ger
mans, Americans, and people Of other ma
tons who are resident there. and whose
persons and property are to be protect
ed. In addition to all these are large
numbers Of Mestizos, people whose moth
ers were native %Filipinos, but whose faith
ers were Japanese, Chinese or Spaniards.
There is no probability that one-half
or one-third of all these vast numbers Of
people would consent to be governed by
Aguinaldo and the Tagalog tribe which
he represents. Many OF them would GER
tainly fight against it. The abandon
ment Of the islands by the United States
army would mean, not liberty to the peo-
pie, but wal among themselves, result
ing in either despotism or anarchy.
2. The United States has never made
war upon the Filipinos. We have not
even been engaged in war, offensive or

FARMER BRYANS NIGHTMARE
HUGO DENKENSPRUCT
A Wisconsin Farmer and Ex-Justice
of the Peace to His Nephew.

Yes, Jonathan, that indianapolis
speech as you say, is very fine and lots
of 1t. Mr.. Bryan Is a schmart man
enough. but I kvit him for the sake OF
his sixteen to one" humbug, and the
demonstration at Indianapolis makes ME
kyit him more. He says he was right
then and the people wrong, and that lie
is right now and the good people must
now apologize by ~electing him President.
The other fellows in the convention at
Kansas City have not SO much faith, but
they have hopes, so they compromise
with Mr.. Bryan and raise a crop OF ca
lamity imperialism mixed with the six
teen to one" old seed, saying to them
selves. Where one don't grow the other
will"
Did you ever try to drive in the barn
with your hay-load too big on one side
too much haw on one side and too much
wheels on the other? Yes. you did: and
you didn't say "Uncle Hugo, we needn't
unload. all we do Is to back out and
paramount another big. lot OF hay on the
other side; then we drive in the barn all
right"
! will tell you a little true story which
reminds me Of this loading up at Kansas
City with the reafirmation business md
the paramount Imperialism on the top.
GERMAN INDEPENDENCE.
A very nice talking man called on my
father one day to enkvire for sheep and
calves to buy. They soon struck a bar
gain in which he was to pay twenty dol
lars for two calves and six sheep. That
was before greenbacks. He offered my
father a twenty dollar bill, but as he was
afraid Of wild cat money" (there was
plenty of it in those days. my father said
he wanted hard money. After much nice
talk from the man my father said: "No,
I rather have the sheep and calves"
Then the man e on with his fine talk
and complimented the Germans, saying
pleasant things about the German indie
p%endence OF character"
So they were about to part on friendly
terms when the dealer took an awful
lkyick fancy to one of our horses. Pretty
soon a bargain was struck for one hun
dred dollars. When the buyer came to
pay, however, he pulled ont eighty dol
lars in silver and gold and that same
twenty dollar bill. Then there was talk
till you couldn't rest. but my father said
Mt last: mo, l rather have the horse"
The stranger answered.: well, I give
you my note for the BILL" but my father

Bryan on Pensions.

Mr.. Bryan's utterances about the SOL
diers of the Civil War are worth repeat
ing. MI. Bryan, rs editor of the Omaha
World-Heraid, passed this Nov. 10. 1892:
"The mex session Of Congress will
have to wrestle with ono deficiency OF
$36,000,000. This is on account Of PEN
sions. The appropriation for next year
must be not less than S150,OO0,00 0 It Is
therefore a $ arithmetic to perceive that
the appropriation that Congress must
make must aggregate not less than $780,
100000. This tremendous sum would
in itself be enough to run a reasonable
government. One would not complain
IL it were an honest debt, but a large pro-
portion is not a debt because 1t was new
err earned by any act Of patriotism or
heroic service. The government is held
up and despoiled Of no mean portion of
this and 1t seems helpless to defend it.
self. One cannot help being curious to
know how many more years 1t will take
to exhaust the generation which feels
itself injured by the war. It is safe to
say that never did generation display
such remarkable longevity"
Isn't 1t about time that Mr.. Bryan was
attacking the Spanish war pensioners?

defensive, against the Filipinos as a peo-
pie. The Filipinos number probably ten
millions of people and two millions Of
men capable Of bearing arms. II, they
were united In var against us, the little
army which we have there would scarce
" be a circumstance in their way. But
the majority Of the Filipinos are a quiet,
-dociles people, not disposed to fight and
not engaged in the insurrection now prac-
tically quelled. Aguinaldo had compar-
atively few supporters outside of his own
tribe, the Tagalogs, who comprise prob
ably one-tenth Of the whole mass of Fill
pinos. He, In his mad effort for abso-
lutte rule, attacked the forces Of the Unit
ed States, and we were compelled to quell
the instruction.
8. The United States troops are in the
Philippines for the protection Of the peo-
pie from murder, rapine and misrule, and
for the preservation Of law, order and
property rights. For many years there
have been robber bands in the mountains
who would from time to, time light down
upon the villages and rob and murder the
people. The Spaniards paid no attention
to the interior. but protected only the
coast. Last spring one Of these bands
attacked a Filipino village and, in addi-
ton to the robbery and killing, carried
away thirty Filipino women to the hills.
Two companies of United States soldiers
pursued them, attacked and dispersed the
band, and restored the women to their
friends. We are bringing to these islands
true liberty, Liberty protected by law
4. The possession and control of these
islands came to us pro%videntially, unex-
pectedly and unsought. They are ours
by treaty, and a treaty which Mr.. Bry-
an approved. We are responsible to the
nations Of the earth and to the Judge
of all the earth for their care. We ac-
cept the responsibility in the fear of God
and the love Of humanity. I may not live
to see it, my boy, but If you live twenty
years you will see the most marvellous
development in the worlds history in the
Philippines. Good roads, good schools,
the development Of agriculture, manufac-
lures and mining, the Introduction Of
American push and energy among the
people, railroads. and a hundred other
means of transformation. You will see
there twenty millions of contented and
prosperous people who will rejoice in
their liberty and their privileges and be
proud Of their relations to the greatest
of all nations, the United States Of Amer.
