Secretary Taft, who will soon begin
the preparation Of an extended report
on his observations In the Philippines,
in recent interview expressed himself
as highly pleased with the progress al
ready made In the islands. Peace, he
says, prevails throughout the Philip
pines to greater extent than ever be-
fore in their history, and agriculture is
proceeding without fear from preda-
tory bands. He finds the natives re
ceptive to education and to modern
western conceptions OF religion and
politics and says there is no difference
between the educated and the ignorant
Filipino that cannot be overcome by
the education of one generation. The
secretary thinks the people should not
be intrusted with self government I'M
I'll their primary and Industrial educa-
ton is complete, and this may require
more than It generation owing to a lack
of funds for educational purposes. AS
TO the fitness of the islanders for the
jury system and the responsibility of
bearing arms he takes a negative
view. believing that these things should
wait for the development of a greater
sense of individual responsibility an5

Mr.. Taft in a frank conference with

his present position might be an en-
barrassment to the administration dur

excitement but the president urged
him to remain, expressing perfect con-
fdence in the integrity of his official
acts and believing that certain lines
of his work as war secretary could be
better carried on by him than by any
other man.
