JZS&ttSSSESi i I'huroday, Jan. 20, 18951. POSSESSION THROUGH CONQUEST. The right of the United States to obtain trans-marine possessions by eon iiiest, being incidental to the war tnakiDg power, is beyond dispute, and the case of the H'loridns affords a precedent tor governing them with autocratic powers, 30 long as circum Mtances shall seem to call for the exertion of such absolute authority. Conceding, however, that We have the right, shall we, also, say that it is expedient to use it? Mr. W. J. Ilryan replies in the ilegative. He insists that American who fought for their own independence should not withhold independence from the Fli linos, who covet alike blessing for themselves. This has a plausible sound, but Mr. Bryan can hardly mean all that his words imply. There is no reason to doubt that, in 1 77(1, the majority ofthe negroslavea in the thirteen American colonies were quite as civilized as the Tagals of Luzon are now. Yet our fore lathers, who put forth the Declara tion of Independence, did not apply it to their own slaves. Does Mr. Bryan think (hat thev ought to have done so'.' Again, will Mr. Bryan tell his supporters in the Southern States thai, mi hi- opinion, it was tight and wise after our Civil War to confer the suffrage upon the em ancipated slaves merely because the latter were assured by their leaders that thev needed? Does be not think that negroes are incomparably better r off to-day in those Southern States, hob ene gWt w os der boo short ner leit wileera eldra farleiehtawen where they arc practically excluded aer hot Nix Well ic) ma M , dtieg '! voting by the State Constitu- huy ioh Wog i( lete mt ma haisasede leit "blue-blooded aris tions, than they would Ik- in 1 ayli, s.lko.,)lu.k mirril Bhpon-sake?"

We see, tin n. that we cannot lay down with out qualification the principle that complete independence must be given to any people that choose to ask for it. Sane other propositions nut forth by Mr. Bryan, when speaking at the Jackson Banquet at Chicago, are scarcely warranted by history. He says, for instance, that the capacity for self-government increases with participation in government. That is true only of certain races. It cer tainly is not true of die black race: witness Hayti, San Domingo and Liberia. Neither is it true of races in which blood has been diluted by ' idmixtore witii negro or indigenous I American stocks: witness almost all of the Latin-American republics. Iii very few of them has the capacity of the people tor self-government liccn developed by the nominal right of participation in government. Neither can we acoept Mr. Bryan's further assertion that, while the Filipinos are not far enough advanc ed to share in the government of the people of the United States, they are competent to govern themselves, and will be able to establish a govern ment as nearly perfect as they are comcpetent to enjoy. To say, as Mr. Bryan says, that, if we give the Filipinos time and opportunity, by which he means, i( we leave theni to fjUJUH.
