BRYAN=TAFT
DEBATE

New York, Oct. 20.-The two pres
idential candidates, William H. Taft
and William J. Bryan, appear as joint
contributors in the issue of Every
body's Magazine, published today, in
articles dealing with the Philippines.
Mr.. Taft has for his text, What the
United States has done for the Phil
i~ppines,'' and Mr.. Bryan discusses,
why the Philippines Should be In
dependent" Eleanor Franklin Egan
also contributes an article on Amer
ica's Record in the Philippines" 3
In opening his discussion of the
subject Mr.. Taft declares that after
the treaty of Paris was ratified the
question as to the wisdom of the ac-
QUESTION of the islands no longer was
an open one. There could be no diff
renee thereafter, he argues, as to
the extent of our obligations to- the
Philippine people.
Party lines were not drawn in the
senate when the vote was taken on
the question of the ratification of the
I4Solss odOS NIL. III
tors voting evidently dealt with the
subject from a purely non-partisan
standpoint and as involving a great
question of national policy, as they
should have done. Democrats were
found voting for the treaty and Re-
publicans against it, and vice versa.
Mr.. Bryan appeared at the Capitol
and was in conference with doubling
and opposing Democratic senator's,
urging them to vote for the ratifca-
ton of the treaty; and it does not
admit of doubt that but for his eff
forts and influence the treaty would
have been rejected"
That these circumstances led Mr..
Mckinley to make the commission
which was to establish civil govern
ment in the Stands non-partisan is
Mr.. Taft's conclusion, and he goes
on to say that mo consideration of
partisan politics at any time entered
into the question of appointing the
numerous officials and employees of
the government. There were perhaps
as many Democrats as Republicans
thus appointed. This policy has new
er been departed from, and today the
Governor-General of the Philippine
Islands is a lifelong Democrat. The
underwriting policy of the Commits
sion, however, has been as fast as
vacancies occurred which could be
filled by Fflipinos as well as by
Americans, to give the former the
preference. AS a result Of this poll
cy, today three members of the SUI
preme u of the islands are Fill
pinos- The attorney general of the
Islands is a Filipino. Fully half of
the judges of the courts of first in
stance are F%ilipinos. The governors
of provinces and a majority of the
provincial boards are Filipinos. All

material prosperity in the Philip
pines" adds Mrs. Egan, has kept
pace with progress &along other lines.
The mits important problem which
confronted the pioneers of develop
ment, as it did the teachers in the
agricultural and trade schools, was
the difficulty of ~impressing upon the
heart and mind Of the Filipino a
sense of the dignity of labor: for the
better class Filipino has always con
sidered any kind of physical effort
degrading. But, in spite of this, there
is to the credit of American capital
and enterprise the making of deep
water harbors where no harbors
were before: the perfecting Of the
coast survey n the lighthouse ser
vice, which renders navigation com
paratively safe in all parts of the
archipelago; the development of inter
island transportation, which gives the
producer in all the islands regular
opportunity to market his produce:
the building and maintenance of roads
and bridges; the beginnings of the
development of the country's miner
al resources; the construction and
extension of railways. and the sur
vey of new lines in various parts of
the islands; and, finally, the further
ing of agriculture"
Mrs. Egan concludes as follows:

ing with Mr.. Taft thai there is no
reason why the success of our nation

No man in public life in this
country IS better qualified than
Judge Taft TO take the lead in re-
forming court procedure. The de-
fects OF our Judicial system as COM
pared with England, for example,
have been recognized for years,
but the recognition has been aca-
demic. No one has addressed
himself persistently 10 the task of
arousing and educating public
opinion TO demand a reform. NJ
Taft regards the reform of co
procedure 70 do away with the
laws delays and inequalities as
the greatest issue before the pub
lie today" It's safe to say, there
fore, that his interest in the ques-
ton IS more than academic. He
addresses himself naturally to the
reform of the federal judicial sys-
TEN, where, it is objected, the
faults which he points out are by
no means as prevalent as in the
state courts; but a beginning of
reform has TO be made somewhere,
and if something is accomplished
to make justice quicker and cheap
er in the federal courts the states
will not be slow to take up the
improvement.
