The United States has come into pos.
session Of the Philippines and all the
political and strategical responsibilities
entailed BY this movement. The particl-
patton In, and suppression of, the Boxer
rebellion. the expanding recognition Of
the supreme Importance to the future
Of American trade, Of the open door, the
realisation that, with the exception OF
Japan. no country IL 70 we'll situated
% the United States, industrially and
geographically, to make the most and
the best Of the development Of China.
These and other events have trans.
formed American indifference to the
fortunes Of the Far East into a real,
live, tingling and vigilant concern.
Logical Commercial Events.
1t did not need the Chinese boycott
Of American goods, or the outbreak Of
the trouble with Japan over the mmi-
grafton question, to convince an Impair
tial onlooker that Americas relations
with the powers of the Far East would,
before long, be more immediate, of
greater moment and possibly Of greater
hazard than our relations with the
powers of Europe. The American feet
has foreshadowed the systematic asser-
tion of American power in the Pacific.
American interests in that ocean, COM
mercial, political and territorial, have
been neglected far too long.
Father Of the Philippines.
Mr.. Taft Is In a sense the father Of
the Philippines. It has been his kindly,
constructive statesman's hand that
evolved order out Of their original
chaos. In his report submitted to Con-
gress, as a result of his visit to the
Philippines to be present at the opening
Of their first Assembly, he made four
recommendations. First-action by Con-
gress admitting to the United States
Philippine products under such condi-
lions that they would not interfere
with American tobacco and sugar in
dustries; second, the removal of re.
strictions as to acquiring mining claims
and lands: third, further legislation
authorizing the government to carry
on an agricultural bank, which is now
authorized only as a private enterprise;
fourth, the repeal of the law applying
to the Islands the coastwise laws of
the United States.
Philosophy of DEVELOPMENTS.
Our nation has grown by obeying the
instinct of development. We are to-day
entitled to be called Greater America.
but that greatness will be lost II We
forget the political philosophy which
has made US great-expansion Of Amer
lean thought, territory, mechanical skill,
civilization and philosophy. This 10 an
suspicious time for the creation and de-
velopment Of our expert trade. The un-
explored and undeveloped markets of
Asia furnish the opportunity. All other
fields have been occupied, and to at
tempt to wrest them from other nations
would be Of doubtful expediency. In
the Orient the commercial possibilities
s1ceed the dreams Of the optimist.
Are the American people ready to
abandon such a situation and leave It
to the mercy Of the Democratic party
with its failure Of flfty years looking
at 10 from the past?
