Gov. Taft's Way of Putting Our Duty
in Philippines.

Washington. Feb. 20.-Before the
Senate Philippine Committee to-day
Gov. Taft said the Intervention of the
United States in the Philippines was
the best thing that could happen for
the Fiipinos, but that it would have
been better for our own country If we
had not gone there, and added:
"If the result in the end proves to
be in the interest of the general well
fare, then we can possibly justify our
selves on the ground that ave have
only taken our share of the burden Of
civilization in bringing out an uncivil-
lied people,"
do you believe that what we are
now doing in the Philippines is best for
the Filipinos and for the people Of the
United States as well?" asked Senator
Allison.

pursuing there the only course open to
us and it was absolutely impossible for
us to pursue any other course than
the one we did pursue and are pursuing
there. If the senators on the other side

Senator Culberson-If a safe and
honorable opening for withdrawing
from the Islands should present itself,
do you think the United States should
avail itself OF it?"
GOV. Taft-That question assumes
that there might be such an opening;
