Secretary Taft, speaking at a ban
quet in Manila, made some important
declarations.
The colonial policy in the archipe
lago has undergone notable change,
as is evidenced by the words of the
American Secretary of War.
Mr.. Taft has spoken of an autono-
mic government, has said: Tile PAili
times jsy the PAsllitsxos, and has furt
her stated that the American functio
|nariss who are not in sympathy with
the natives should be removed frem
their positions.
The American colonial policy, as
can be seen, has undergone great
transformations.
The old talk about liberty, redemp
|tion and americanism no longer counts
for anything, and the superior beings
who have heretofore indulged in it are
convinced of its uselessness.
Now, in order to obtain some ap-
plause at the conclusion of banquet,
it is necessary to offer autonomy, a
form of colonial government which
the continentals previously declined 70
recognize.
Nothing of American methods, not
hing of exotic systems; the PHILIPPINES
want self government. which the Sc
cretary of War, Mr.. Taft. offers them
after sumptuous banquet,
The PHILIPPINES have powerful rea-
sons for doubling the fu6lment of
that promise, since something more
than that was offered them in 1898
and on a more momentous occasion
than that of post-prandial oratory.
But now the PHILIPPINES can feel
confidence. Things have happened
near their shores that could not do
otherwise than impress the governm-
ent of the United States and cause it
deep thought and preoccupation. The
right of force has just had one of its
most stupendous manifestations, and
events have proved that races consid
cred inferior, when least expected,
may demonstrate astonishing traits
of conquerjng power, and display in
certain parts of the world the sceptre
|of supreme strength which must be
respected as we'll as feared.
Founded On these causes, since the
former governmental informalities do
not warrant Our attaching much con
Efdence to the offer, the promises of
Secretary Taft may this time be full
filed.
Whether the looks of gratitude of
the Philippines are turned towards
Washington or Toxic. the Ex-Govern-
nor of the ArchftA2laso wants to direcl
them towards himself, affirming that
what he has promised is the policy of
the American government.
The PAilHtime, for the PAtIIipm0s.
Secretary Taft has not expressed
similar views regarding Porto Rico.

Had he visited as he would aogb-
thess have passed rapidly through 1r
Island, without expressing any viJSs;
possibly too absorbed in the con-
temptation of Our panoramas and ma
tural beauties; too much engaged
in meditation on the promises made
by General Miles; perhaps he would
fear that were he to announces the
removal of functionaries who were not
in sympathy with the natives, it would
be necessary to decree general clea-.
ming out Of the members Of the con-
gregation and their acolytes, who have
given abundant proofs OF their aggres-
sive enmity towards everything that is
native.
Through here he would no doubt
pass with great velocity, as shadowy
spectre, as has been the case with all
the phantasm commissions which have
visited us from time to time.
We are very distant frem the Phi
|llipines, far away from the great sta
|ge on which is being acted the most
amazing spectacles, and where have
occurred the most unlocked for trium-
|phs.
We are close to the United States
and We are merely an Island.
For these reasons, Mr. Talft's words
are not intended for us. For US are
the words of Willoughby, Post, Van
Buren and the words of many others
who have talked nensense and been
insolent to the natives
When the policy Of the American
government is inspired by national
lconscience, when the Caesar. when
Mr.. Roosevelt. obeys other dictates
than those of his pleasure or cenve-
nience, when there is true respect
for Democracy, and the cultivation of
