The | Presid: says that in the of | any contrary expression of the will of Congres, he has used his authority to | uphold the sovereignty of the United | States. and he declares that our forces | have successfully controlled the great-| er part of the islands, overcome the or- | ganized forces of the insurgents and “earried order and administrative reg- ularity to all quarters.” And then comes the assertion that in the spring of this year “the effective opposition of the dissatisfied Tagals to the suthor- orl States was virtually absence ity of the Uni ended.” But until Congress shall decide what is to be done with the Philippines, the war which was ended so successfully and beneficently last spring is to go on, and from 45,000 to 60,000 soldiers will be needed to prevent the Filipinos from forgetting that they “are under our fostering care” and under the flag which is the revered symbol of liberty, enlightenment and progress. There fore the President asks for authority to maintain an army of 100,000 men. The President haviog passed the re sponsibility for settlement of the Phil- ippine question up to Congres-, it is to bz wished that Congress would so deal with the islands thst 60,000 bayonets should pot be required to demonstrate to the inhabitants the justice, the geu- erosity and benevolence of our inten- tions toward them. Forcible annexation is an expensive operation, and the profits are not dis cernible. It costs more in dollars than the islands are worth, not to speak of | priceless lives. The business sense of the country must condemn as an un- profitable iuvestment the expenditure of hundreds of millions to obtain by force the trade advantages which we could secure by amicable agreement, and the nation's sense of justice is of fended by the policy which seeks to in- culeate reverence for the symbol of lib- erty Ly shooting it into the hearts of a people with Krag-Jorgensen ballets.
