Philippine question, «!•:
' "I m delighted with the Phil-
ippine Island*. I have no doubt
that a little push and energy thi*
fall will crush out the Aguinaldo
insurrection. Out at 9,000,000
people in these islands, I do not
think that lie has more than 10,•
P00 soldiers, and in. a square fight
6000 Americans would tear then
to pieoes. All that it necessary
to ornsh them out at onoe is for
the army to get at them and keep
at them until the work la done.

the United States in asserting
that the people of the Philippine
ought to nave independence does
a great deal of harai Mid assist#
Agninaldo in maintaining the in
surrection, ss he publishes all as-
sertions by Americans of that
character, and he tells his sup-
porters tbst, if they hold out un

We shall not be at all surprised
if within a year there is a stronger
eentiment in the South in favor
of retaining the Philippines—
least until the Fillipiaos are fitted
for self-government then in a
other section of the country. a
noteworthy instance of the change
that is going on in the nositio
of pablic men on this Philippine
mstter is the recent letter of Sen-
ator Tillaum of Sooth Carolina to
the manufacturers of that state.
Senator MoLaurin has always
held the opinion that the Phdip-
pinoe ought to be retained, but
the senior senator has held a dif-
ferent opinion.
The Sooth Carolina maanfac
terers naked Senator TUknsa to
support the Administration in ad-
vancing American commercial in-
ts in the far £aet. In hie
er he said: "I opposed the
annexation of the Phiuppinea, but
ready to vote anea aad mo
ay to prevent the Asiatic market
being cloead to our manufactur-
ers. In the coerce of hiaaa
•wer the senator said that be had
been of the opinion that the com-
mercial internets of this oountry
in tbs fnr East could he protected
without the Philippine*, but the
foregoing extract indijaten that
his views on tbst subjsct are un-
dergoing, if they have not already
undergone, a change.
Just at present the Narsjos out
la Arinona are becoming obstre-
perous and government troops
are to be sent to discipline them.
It mny be that Mr. Edward At-
kinson will soon issue n new trea-
tise on the wickedness of govern-
ment without the consent of the
governed.

It is said that early ia the con-
