TAFT AGAIN TAKES GARRISON TO TASK Hits Non-Partisanship Claim in Philippine Service New Haven, Dec. 7,—Ex-President ‘William H. Taft, last night issued a statement in reply to Secretary Gar- rison’s answer to his statement as a result of an attack by the secretary upon his stand regarding the admin- istration’s conduct of affairs in the Philippine Islands. In this second statement, Professor Taft takes up again the claim of no partisanship in the dismissals in the Philippine service, claimed by Garrison, and goes into quite a review of the ma- jor cases in which dismissals oc- curred. In the statement he says, in part: “I earnestly and sincerely hope that the American people will not be pre- vented from realizing the truth con- cerning the present administration’s and its effect in the Philip- by what 1 must call the spe- pleading with which Mr. Garri- buildings, 19; permits issued for new toilets in old buildings, 97; permits | surprise that he could so deceive him- issued for -new bath-tubs in old | self.

Garrison to have denleu, and I ac- cept his denial, that he said in the public press at Honolulu that he took a sardonic pleasure in removing re- publicans. Yet his first act when he reached the Islands was to force the resignation of Col. H. B. McCoy, who had served the government since 1898, first as a soldier, and then in various positions in the civil service until he won his way to be collector of customs, the highest fiscal posi- tion in the commission. He was most tisanship and its meaning in this con- nection. There is the partisanship in a democrat with power of removal which prompts him to dismiss trained republican officeholders with out re- gard to the injury to the public ser- | vice. That kind we have just been considering. | For Patronage Purposes. “Then there is shown another kind of partisanship even more injurious. That is the making of vacancies by forcing resignations of competent and trained American civil servants for | the purpose of giving patronage to | Mr. Queson and his group of Filipino | politicians and enabling them to se- cure official berths for their hench- | men in Filipino politics. Then there | is partisanship in removing competent | Filipinos from office for the same pur- | pose. There were three Filipinos, members of the commission, one of them the secretary of finance and Jjustice Araneta, all faithful, loyal, | public servants of years training, whose heeds were demanded because | they had been in the previous admin- | istration. tice, Araneta the Islands.

I have explained the importance of the office in the sale of the Friars Lands and in the set- tlement of land of titles generally in the Islands. With Sleeper’s organi- zation, the sinking fund for the Friar's Fund Lands of was growing successfully. With organization and a competent and trained land court of five judges, there had been settled and recorded thou- sands of land titles. The uncertainty of tenure and boundaries was one of the great evils of the Tsland Sleeper had conducted accurate su:- veys and increased the land registra- | tions to 60,000 in his last year. What | did this new non-partisan regime do? They removed Sleeper as soon as Mr. Harrison reached the Islands, and his assistant, Wilson. later. If the record shows that Wilson voluntar- ily resigned, so much the worse for the record. So humorous have the records as evidence in this regard be- come in the Islands that the word “resigned” with quotation marks is a recognized term in the vernacular. In the copy of a record sent me by Mr. Worcester, I find McCoy, Sleeper, Wil- efficient. No charge is made against him of inefficiency, unloyalty or of his integrity. He was removed be- cause he held the largely nominal position of national republican com- mitteeman in the Philippines. There were no elections in the islands for him to take an interest in. There was no opportunity to become an offensive partisan or to neglect his office in politics. It was not a vio- lation of any civil service regulation. Except for the partisan motive, the act is not explained. Could Have Kept McCoy. “If Mr. Harrison had wished to re- tain for the public service a highly trained veteran and had really thought his holding an official rela- tion to a political party was improper, the mere suggestion would have led to i its severance. Mr. Garrison seeks to fasten on to Presidents McKinley and Roosevelt and myself responsibility for the course of the present adminis- tration in the islands in removing Americans and replacing them with Filipinos and in enlarging the power of Filipino politicians by insisting that it is only a continuance of our avowed policy. If that were so, why was it necessary to make a clean sweep of the commission of trained Americans with no politics and substitute parti- san and active democrats and one progressive ? If the policy was to be the same, what is there in the argu- ment that the executive officers of a colonial service trained by years of experience and faithful service are like cabinet officers at home, and should be felled by one blow of the political axe? Such commissioners, it | goes without saying, were much more competent to continue such a policy | than mere tiros who had never been | in the islands and did not know the i language or the people. The import- ance of continuity in a colonial service is shown by all the great world suc- cesses in this field and such a sudden sweep as Mr. Garrison seeks to justify in conclusive proof of the partisanship that prompted it. As a make weight | in his defense of the clean sweep, Mr. Garrison says that vice-Governor Gil- bert and Mr. Worcester resigned Does he mean to intimate that they would not have been forced out if they had not resigned and that it was not a deliberate purpose to make a clean sweep of them as well as the others? “Let us not be confused as to par- son, Leech, Hogsette, all as having resigned after satisfactory service. The work of registering the land ti- | tles in the Tslands has thus been halted and the record of 60,000 cases for a year under Sleeper is a dream of the past, and the reorganization of the courts greatly contributed to such a halt. Looking for Dismissals. “The number of cases like those T have cited justifies the conclusion that Mr. Harrison was looking for dis- missals and seizing any pretence for making them. All this is explained by the circumstances that Mr. Harrl- son’s policy was the result of a ser- ies of long consultations on his long trip together across the Pacific witn Mr. Queson, the delegate, whom he confessed to be his creator, and who was thus enabled to secure rich pa- tronage for his political group. Tn some instances the vacancies made by removals of bureau chiefs were filled by American assistants lower down, but in such case the opportunity for vacancies for Filipinos of course fol- lowed. | “Mr. Harrison seeks to justify the wide employment of Filipinos in tha internal revenue system by the report of Mr. Nolting, when he was internal revenue collector, that Filipinos worked well in the positions unde him. Now it is true—it was so ‘n my day—it was so in Mr. Forbes' doy —that American heads of bureaus were loth to increase the number of Filipinos under them in the subor- dinate positions because of the addi- tional care and responsibility that the supervision of such subordinates involved.” “Letter From Forbes.” ‘“After my article appeared T re- ceived the following letter from Mr. Cameron Forbes, formerly governor- general of the islands.
