One of the few sensible Democrats
in the senate is Morgan, of Alabama,
who yesterday made speech support
ing the governments policy in the
Philippines. He read an editorial
from an Alabama newspaper, which
he adopted as his own sentiments.
That editorial held that as the United
States had put its hand to the pillow in
the Philippines,it could not turn back.
The instruction in the islands, Mr..
Morgan said, was broken, ami the
duty was left to this government to
provide just and equitable govern
ment for the people. Division in the
council in this country, he believed,

field. When that division was settled,
peace in the islands, in practical
way, could be assured.
