I tcctorntc Snlil to lie the Onlr Solu
tion.
Of tho latest war nows tho Item that
most closely concerns tho far cast is the
nnnouuconieut tlmt tho futuro of tho
Philippines, concerning which tho Unit
cd States gorcnmicnt is clearly unable
to mako tip its mind definitely, is to bo
considered by n joint commission of
JVmoricau nnd Spanish delegatus. That
Btatoment, if authentic, as thoro iaovery
reason to suppose it to bo, may woll
glvo cnaso for anxiety to nil who are
interested in tho maiutonauco of tho
balauco of power in tho far east, who
desiro to eco peaco provail and com
morro prosper nml who aro convinced
that by retaining n lnrgo degreo of con
trol over tho Philippines tho United
States would thereby bo doing no moro
than nssnming that position as n great
power on tho Pnciflo that it is right and
nocossnry for her to acquire
It may well bo asked why, in tho nn
nouueement of tho proposed institution
of a Hispauo-Amcricau joint comiuis
clou for tho determination of tho futuro
of tho Philippines, thcro should bo up
prohended any possibility of peril. Our
reply is that tho danger Is to bo found
In tho presumption, in tho fact of tho
creation of such n commission, that tho
rosult to bo arrived at must bo of tho
nnturo of a com prom I so between tho in
terests of tho two parties to tho discus
sion. Compromise, to our thinking aud
according to our ostimnto of tho situa
tion, would in such n matter bo fatal to
tho canso of lasting peaco.
To compare, in passing, tho rclativo
positions of tho populations of Cuba and
of tho Philippines under Spanish rulo
It is truo to say that whilo tho easier
opportunity for American intervention
was apparent in tho Cuban caso, partly
owing to proximity and tho resultant
commingling of commercial interests,
yet tho diro necossity for intervention
from somo humane quartor or other was
far moro clamant in tho caso of tho
Philippines. It is proper to nssumo that
in both cases, Cuba and tho Philip
pines, tho main features of Spanish ad
ministration call it maladministra
tion if you will wcro practically iden
tical, and that therefore all tho conse
quent grievances nud disabilities that
ensued to tho dit-advantago of tho two
populations wero similar in nuturo and
perhaps in intensity.
Had that been all tho mild and tract
ablo Filipino population might uovor
havo showod intoh r.incoof Spanish rule
in tho way in which their brothers in
misfortuuo in Cuba havo dono. But
within thoPhilippinostherohas oxistcd
for centuries a dominant power that
has absolutely overridden tho entiro
civil and military executivo and by its
influence over theso has in effect held
in tho hollow of its hand tho lives and
fortunes of each individual Filipino bo
yond all hopo of appeal for protection
to tho ordinary tribuuols of tho law.
Wo refer, of courbo, to tho great roll
gious fraternities who sway to their arbi
trary will every power of church and
stnto in tho Philippines. Thoir mem
bers, in many instances, aro grasping,
unscrupulous and vicious. It bus been
related by tboso who know that tho
honor of wifo or tho virtuo of daughter
of tho unlucky Filipino is hold at tho
disposal of tho frailo on demand. Ito
slstanco to such a demand means certain
denouncement of tho victim to tho oivil
power as a "Freemason" or a "sympa
thizer with insurroctos. "
Tho civil odlcial knows much bettor
than to quostion any chargoof this kind
omanatiug from snub n sourco, aud tho
tmluoky man vanishos, porhapi forover,
from his family. What goes on in
Philippino prisons without trial in tho
way of torturo, misery, thirst, starva
tion, mutilation aud murder has boen
of lato a common enough thomo. Theso
religious orders havo, it is well known,
boon expelled from Spain. Thoyhavono
existonco in Cuba, but tho unfortunato
Spanish colony of tho Philippines has
boon thoir happy hunting grounds for
many generations.
It is against tho intolerable ocnturios
of oppression and extortion at tho hands
of these religious incorporations and
thoir pliant tools of tho civil powor that
tho Filipinos havo ontered upon thoir
struggle, now at last crowned with suo
cess owiug to tho encouraging influence
and aid of Admiral Dowoy. By this in
stitution of n joint Spanish-American
commission as to tho Philippines what
is likely to ensuo? First of all, it is to
bo roniombered that tho American dele
gates will not bo ablo to forget that
Spain has boon defeated, her flcots havo
boon wiped out, Cuba romoved from her
jurisdiction, Porto Rico surrendered,
whllo tho United States declines tccon
Bon t to tako over nny of tho undoubted
immense pecuniary indebtoduoss of ei
ther Cuba or Porto Rico. Knowing nil
that and going into conferenco with tho
delegates of tho defeated powor with
tho express object of treating with thorn
ovor what has been apparently deliber
ately left us nn open quostion tho dos
tiny of tho Philippines can it humanly
bo wondorcd at if tho tendency in tho
mind of tho American dolcgatos will bo
irresistibly toward concession and alio
viation of tho terms, so as to onablo
Spain to say that ont of tho general
wreck of her colonial fortunos kIio had
laved eoino fihreds of hor ancient digni
ties and possesions?
But what will all this moan? Jf it
moans, in ony dogreo, a survival of
, vJBpaush authority; if it moans tbo con
' tlnuod action of tho slenderest powers
til tho obnoxious, cruel and extortiountn
religious fraternities; if it means that
thoso (as of necessity nlwoys) aro to re
tain nn arbitrary powor of bending tho
civil, magisterial and judicial ofllcinls
to their irresponsible will, thon indeed
will tho last state of tho pcoplo of tho
Philippines bo worse than tho flrtt, for
tho very first Impalso of tho Spanish
powor, as mum ns may bo left of it, Ju
iplrod by tho deadliest animosity of tho
frailos, will bo toward tho crushing,
tho extermination, of ovory man and
woman who Jiwl dared to utrfvo for
equity, justice, 4nuaUul govopraent
froodom wid liborty of thought, speech
wl ftctiott in tho Philippines. For
i
America tho question is this: "la Amer
ica, after rousing hopes, aftor counto
uanclug tho shedding of blood in aspira
tion to thoso blessings of liborty aud
justice which aro tho root and founda
tion of national llfo of tho United
Statos, to abandon tho slniplo people of
tho Philippines to n fa(o which to com
prohoud is to shnddor at?" Of courso
America does not know. How can sho?
But it is right nud fair to say, from an
absolutely impartial aud unbiasod point
of view if thoro bo bias at all it is in
tho direction of a desiro to vindlcato
American honor nnd roputntlon for
justico that, whatovor tho canso of
tho Cubans bo worth, that of tho Fi
lipinos, from the poignancy of thoir suf
ferings nnd tho hopolossness of thoir
sighs for tho barest rights of humanity,
deserves mi iuflnitoly deopcr nnd moro
practical sympathy. Thoir spiritual
rulers wo do not refer to tho simplo
villago secular priesthood, most of thtm
truo Filipinos havo boon practically
so many Torquemadas to them. Every
body should know nud understand what
that monns. If, thou, tho joint commis
sion is to imply tho smallest reasscrtion
of Spanish authority ovor tho Philip
pines aud tho temptation to accord it
is no small one tho American pooplo,
or thoir mandatories, will bo responsi
ble for tho boginuing of an intorminablo
civil war in tho Philippines, whoro
now, within tho jurisdiction of Agui
naldo nnd his civil magistrates, all is
peaco ; llfo and property, ovon of Span
iards, rospected; rovcuuopcnoofully col
lected nnd applied to public purposes,
nnd nil tho doceuoies of good govern
ment nud justico faithfully nnd impar
tially observed. Is that to bo undone
forover, with nil tho bitterness of disap
pointment and despair suoh n result will
cntnil? America must answer tho ques
tion ; sho alone.
But it is moro than civil war that
President McKiulcy will bring in sight
if ho sanctions so obviously risky a
thing ns this joint commission, with all
its inevitable programme of compromise
nnd concession to Spain, unthinking of
nil that that may mean to hapless mil
lions who liuvo burned thoir bridges bo
hind them and gouo hand in hand with
American soldiers nud sailors to tho
liberation of thoir country from n rulo
that has proved itself Cbiueho in its
barbarous indilTerenco to tho miscrlos
of tho ruled. Wo cannot boliovo it. If
in America they could realize tho facts
of tho situation in tho Philippines! But
by tho fact of tho creation of this com
mission thoy too clearly know not what
they do.
Thon, again, is it not easy to eoo that,
onco grant Spain tho most nominal re
covery of hnr authority over tho Phil
ippines, or oven n portion of tho Philip
pines, tho wny to oxterual iutrlguo on
tho part of foreign nations, whom it is
needless to specify, is thrown thorcby
wide open. Spain has been beaten in
tho war. Does America think that Spain
will forgot this or forgivo it? What
will bo tho inevitablo weapon of ro
vengo? A foreign combination certainly.
And how can that best bo promoted?
Obviously by tho opening up of a way
for foreign intervention in tho Philip
pines which will bo of sucli n character
as to challenge nnd to break up nny ar
rangement that n joint commission may
como to which recognizes nny concur
rent status of Spain and the United
States in tho Philippines nnd nny of tho
dopeudencies thereof.
To tho thoughtful and impartial ob
server thoro iB hut ono wny only ouo.
Tho Unitod Statos must so net aa at
onco to secure tho permanent happiness
and liborties of tho hitherto oppressed
Filipino nation and to prcsorvo tho is
lands from becoming tho theater of ex
ternal intrigues, connhed at by Spain,
which shall havo for thoir objoct tho
oxtinutioii of tho nowly exerted uiid al
together beneficent iuilucuco of Ameri
ca in tho far east and tho disturbance
of political power in such n manner aa
to paralyzo tho action of tho pcaro lov
ing and commerco promoting nationali
ties already woll established on tho
bhores of tho Pacific Britain, Japan
and tho United States. Tho collcctivo
interests, political and commercial, of
thoso powers are of un absolutely over
whelming character, nud tho loss tho
chanco of conspiracy to disturb thoso
interests tho hotter for humanity nt
largo.
Does America deliberately moan to
abandon in tho far eatt ita present mag
nificent opportunity of usefulness to
civilization? Wo refuso to bcliovo it.
Tho joint commission idea, even with a
Filipino representation thrown in to
glvo geuuiuo ovidonco and too fair play,
is n peril to tho interests of tho Unitod
States and to tho general interest of ull
pucifiu nations that, too, evon if it
wero hold at Manila, as it would need
to bo. The only solution la nn American
protectorate, ostensibly temporary, pos
sibly, ovor tho Philippines, thus nt onco

and elevation of a long oppressed and
much onduring pcoplo nud n' security
against tho intrusion of disturbing in
