THURSDAY. OCTOBER II, 1907.

We hear "A great deal Of talk these
days about the improved condition
OF the Filipinos, and Secretary Taft
Is now on a mission TO the Philippine
Islands TO be present at the inaugu-
ration of government for the
islands in which the natives are to
hold a prominent part, so it is said.
This all sounds very nice TO those
who get their information only from
administration sources, but unpreju-
diced and impartial Information does
not paint the picture in so roseate n
hue. The Ri. Rev. Charles II. Brent,
bishop of the Philippine Islands, in
an address before the Episcopal Con
vention in Richmond on Tuesday
last, on the contrary. presents a
most gloomy view OF the conditions
In these islands. He not only draws
a dark picture OF the condition of az
fairs there, but charges many OF its
evils TO the policy which this govern
ment has pursued towards the ma
tives. He charges that the American
guardianship has been unjust and
unfair throughout. He declares that
the Filipinos are at least 100 years
behind the Cubans, and will never be
able to govern themselves if the gov
eminent continues its present policy.
Bishop Brent's analysis of the situa-
tion is no doubt the true one. and it
is certainly nearer true estimate of
the situation than the report of any
official of the government which j.
responsible for the condition in these
unfortunate islands. There is one
thing which this status of the Philip
pines Islands indicates. and that is
that this government proposes to
hold them for good and all.
