In short, the proposition of those opposed is to continue all the obligations in the pines which now rest upon the Govern ment. only changing the relation from the principle which now exists to that of surety Our responsibllity is to remain, but our power is to be diminished.

As the soverelgnty power we can initiate action and shape means to | ends, and gulde the Filipinos to self-develop- ment and self-government. As & protectorate power, we could not initiate action but would be compelled to follow and uphold a people | with no capacity vet to go alone. In the one case we can prevent both ourselves and the Fil- ipinos from being involved in dangerous com- plications; in the other we could mot protect even the Filipinos until after their trouble had | come. Besides, If we cannot establish any govern- ment of our own, without the consend of the governed, as our' opponents contend, then we could not establish a stable government for them or make ours a protectorate without a | ople’ mor the minority me {t.

Whether It s paramount to any other not. it is whether we shall be responaible | r the government of the Philippines with the ereignty and authority which enables us to safoty guide them to regulate and progress, or whether w ble for the foreible and arbitrary of a minority without so thority on our part, and ¢ ment of a protectorate, which draws us into their troubles without the power of preventing | them. There were those who two years ago were rushing us on to war with Spain who are now unwilling to ac- | cept its clear consequences, as there are those among us who advocated | the ratification of the treaty of peace, | but now protest against its cbliga- tions. Nations which go to war must be prepared to accept its resultant ob- | ligations, and when they make trea- | ties must keep them.

Liberty is the great Re- publican doctrine for which the peo- ple went to war and for which a mil- | lion lives were offered and billions of | dollars expended to make it the law of the legacy of all, without the con- sent of the master or slave. There is a strain of ill-concealed hypoerisy in the anxiety to, extend the constitutional guar- antees to the people of the Philippines while their nullification Is openly advocated at hom Our opponents may distrust themselyes, but they have no right to discredit the good faith and patriotism of the ma- Jority of the people who are opposed to them. They may fear the worst form of im- perialism with the helpless Filipinos in their hands, but if they do, it is because they have parted with the spirit and Taith of the fathers and have lost the virility of the founders of the party which they profess to represent. The Republican party does not have to assert its devotion to the Declaration of Independence. That jrumortal instrument of the fathers re- mained unexecuted until the people under the lead of the Republican party in the awful clash of battle turned its promises into fulfillment. It wrote into the constitution the amendments guaranteeing political equality to American citizens and it has neyer broken them or coun- eeled others in breaking them. It will not be guided in Its conduct by one set of principles | at_home and another set in the new territory belonging to the United States. | If our opponents would only prac-l tice as well as preach the doctrines | of Abraham Lincoln there would be no fear for the safety of our institu- ' | lands, have been watched and prayed —_— tions at home or their rightful influ- ence in any territory over which our flag floats.
