Renewal Of Agitation Over Our
Pacific Possessions Again
Raises Question, Is Popu-

p Government? Con-
fIicting Opinions.

TATHAT shall we do with the
NV Philippines? That question
has bobbed up again, this
time in more forceful polit-
ical form than on previous occasions
and also with a sinister note Of sig
niicance. Americans do not want to
bother with another insurrection, but
Aguinaldo, the Filipino soldier who
headed a revolt whose object was a
republic under native rule just before
this country came into undisputed pos
session of the islands eleven years ago,
has recently been reported to be very
active in the aus Of Independence.
Political agitation owe the Philip
pines has been stirred up in Washing
ton to a great extent by Manuel l..
Quezon. delegate to the house of rep
resentatives. Delegate QueZon is a
high class Filipino, who talks good
English, delivers strong and eloquent
arguments and misses no opportunity
to further the cause he represents.
On the other hand. not only many
Americans Of prominence. but many
Filipino men Of affairs declare that the
time is not ripe for independence, that
the Filipinos are not vet fitted to gov
ern themselves. If they We're it would
be most remarkable and a glowing tes-
timonial as to the beneficent influence
Of the United States. for only a dozen
years ago q large proportion of the
population Of the islands was made ul
of savage and s~emisavage tribes.

liam Howard Taft, whose experience
as governor general of the Philippines
and dealings with the Philippine ques-
ton as president entitle him to con-
sideration on the subject.
Action In Congress Is Expected.
With Democratic Endorsement of the
Jones bill and presidential approval OF
that measure, the indications point to
definite action Of some sort in the six
ty-third congress. The Jones bill
would allow the Philippines i%ndepend-
ence in eight years. In that time four
different congresses will have been
been elected, two more presidents
chosen. and it is quite possible that the
congresses hereafter elected may be
Republican, in which event they would
have power to repeal the independence
legislation.
In New York city June 9 last was
| held the first annual dinner Of the new
ly formed Philippine society, dedicated
to "a more sympathetic interest be-
tween the people Of this country and
the people of the Philippines.' At
this dinner the society launched its
propaganda to ''diffuse among Ameri-
can Il more accurate knowledge Of the
Philippine Islands; to benefit the peo-
pie of the islands by cooperation in
the fields Of religion, philanthropy, edu-
cation and commerce, and to promote
social intercourse in the United States

But the Right Rev. Charles Henry
Brent. Protestant Episcopal missionary
bishop of the Philippines, who also
spoke. expressed his conviction that
the Filipinos are not yet ready for self
government.
Moral Question-Bishop Brent.
Every man who in his heart has
the highest interests Of the Filipino

ly was quoted as saying, "will do his

great Christian altruism. l have been
