WAS, .ITGTON, February 2, 1900
Senator Hawley did patriotism a
service when he objected to state
ments Of Senator Pettigrew alleging
shat Admiral Dewey recognized the
Philippine republic, saluted the flag
and promised Aguinaldo independ-
ance, on the ground that it was trea-
son. In his own words, II object to
the statement, because it is treason
It is lending aid and comfort to an
enemy of the United States, and the
senator has been doing that for
months" Senator Lodge character
lied the statements which Senator
Pettigrew was trying to make from
pamphlet written by Aguinaldo as
"a mass of falsehoods. a tissue of
lies and read the following letter
from Admiral Dewey, written this
week: 'Dear Senator Lodge: The
statement of Emilio Aguinaldo, AS re-
Gently published in The Springfield
Republican, so far as it relates to me,
is a tissue of falsehoods. [ never
promi sed, directly or indirectly, in
dependence for the Filipinos. [ never
treated him as an ally, except to
make use of him and the soldiers to
assist me in my operations against
the Spauiards. He never alluded to
the word independence in any con-
versation with me or my officers. The
statement that I received him with
military honors or saluted the So
called Filipino flag is absolutely
false" The American people will
agree with Senator Lodge, who said

The Otis celebration.

It is said that something like one hun
dred thousand dollars of public money vii!
be squandered under one or another cover,
by the Administration to make politi-
cal event of the reception to Otis in
Rochester. For some inscrutable reason
Mr. Hanna seems TO think that military
celebration and parade on the occasion
will make the country forget that the
man the Administration seeks to honor
was a total and offensive failure. and is
responsible for the extent and violence of
the Luzon insurrection from the spring of
1899 TO the present time.
We do not deny that Otis may be en-
titled to the credit OF having obeyed orders
from Washington. at the cost of his repu-
tation for military ability and verbal ac-
curacy. But in any other sense he has
displayed no qualities while viceroy and
captain general at Manila, other than
those of ineficiency. meddlesomeness, and
a singular prudence which never per-
mitted him to witness a field operation.
Interference with generals who would have
been successful If left TO themselves con-
tinualiy hampered the Philippine army.
His doddering policy OF compelling Lawton
and Macarthur to take and abandon the
same town or district half dozen times
over, within few weeks. filled American
graves with men killed in action or ex-
hausted by disease. and gained for our
arms the contempt Of the Tagal rebels.
The country knows Otis. and estimates
Kim at his true worth. The massing Of
regular troops at Rochester. at public ex-
pense. to give eclat to this official favor
ite's return will not serve to obscure the
facts of history in his case. Mr.. Mckinley
should bear in mind that the attempt to
glorify a certain naval failure has not
done him much good. 1t would have been
far wiser TO tuck Otis away out of sight
until after November. than TO faunt him
in the face OF the country at this time,
when his record in the Far East is a
matter of recent memory.
