the news spread to the clubs and no.

BUENCAMINO TESTIFIED.
He Said FiIipinos Would Like to Have
Their Political Status
Declared.

Washington, June 2.-Felipe Buen-
canine, former secretary of state III
the cabinet of Aguinaldo, was heard
Saturday, for the first time since his
arrival, by the house COMMITTEES on
insular affairs. His testimony was in
part:
Under the Taft system, he said, the
Filipinos have greater liberty than
they would have enjoyed, under the
Aguinaldo government had it been es-
tablished. Governor Taft was nov
the ideal of the people. He said the
people of the Philippines would like
to have their political status fixed,
whether they axe Americans or Fill
pinos. He preferred that they should
be Americans. The happiness Of the
people depended upon American SOY
ereignty.
He spoke of the many schools and
the improved educational methods
the Filipino families no longer find
ing it necessary to send their children
to Manila. as the local schools we're
ample. Instead of 1900 American
teachers, he said, there should be
5000, and the salaries should be
doubled in order to secure the best
material.
Large Percentage of IIliteracy.
Among the facts he stated were the
following: Eighty-fye per cent OF
the people are illiterate and cannot
read or write. There are many dia
! lects, which may be reduced to eight
main dialects. If education means
protection to life, property and rights
then the Filipinos are as we'll educat
ed as any other people; if it means
culture, then they are uncultured.
"Are the people capable at this tins
of Independent self government?" he
was asked.
cit would not be advisable" he
said, turning to the map Of the archi
pelago. Russia was near at hand, al
Port Arthur; Japan also was near;
Australia and other British posses
sions were nearby. Beside, he said

that result would be accepted" an
swered Senior Buencamino, "but con
gress would become responsible if the
Philippines were devoured by othel
nations, and the Filipinos would be
left to damn the congress for bring
ing about such result"
He contended that annexation was
the solution satisfactory to the PEG
pie.
The witness said the Moros would
fight to the death to retain their
slaves.
