all of us concerning the propriety and
utility Of keeping our heads inside our

A BAREFACED UsURPATIoN.

Mr.. Schurz then takes up the eX-
cuses given by Mckinley for his per-
fidity and answers them. Quoting
the Presidents words: 1--WE must
either hold the Philippine islands or
turn them back to Spain" Mr..
Schurz answers:
In the first place. the order was issued
six weeks before the treaty of peace was
confirmed-that is. six weeks before the
United States acquired even a technical
title of sovereignty over the islands. The
assumption of that sovereignty by the
President Of his own motion and the or
der to the army to enforce it constituted
therefore ore of the clearest, most bare
faced usurpations of power that can be
imagined-a usurpation of power strik-
ing so flagrantly at the very foundation
of constitutional government that, if it
passes into ruling precedent we may
we'll tremble Cor the safety of our free
institutions. There were times when a
President daring to do such thing would
hardly have escaped impeachment.
In the second place. that order was
such an insult to the Filipino people, our
late allies. so direct a provocation of
immediate violent trouble. that General
Otis, fearful of it's effect. found himself
compelled to assume a most extra ordi-
nary responsibility for military officer
the responsibility of suppressing proc
lamation of his chief. and of substituting
one of his own. But in spite of the Cen
erals precautions the Presidents order,
his direct declaration of war against the
FiIipinos standing for freedom and indie
pendence, did become public, and soon the
bloody conflict was on. And now Mr.. Nc
Kinley blandly tells his countrymen that
the disturbance was all owing to the pes
tilent Filipinos fiercely assailing a most
benevolent and considerate ruler.
