Who is there in this country that ever hadany doubt of the result of the war in the Philippines? Eighty million AngloSaxons have been enabled to conquer 10.000.000 Orientals. effeminate by nature and effeminated by centuries of tyranny and misrule. But we may well remember in considering the course that we shall pursue toward that people. even at this late day. that those 10.000.000 Orientals came to our aid as one man in our war with Spain. that those 10.000.000 -ientals who helped us to fight our battles are the only men of the Asiatic continent or its outlying islands who in all history have aspired to liberty and independence and have had the courage and the hardihood to fight and to die for it. that those 10.000.000 Orientals who helped us fight our battles and are singular among all their kin in tleir aspirations for liberty we have decimated by fire and sword and famine and disease. have wasted and desolated their land. destroyed their homes. scattered their families. and sowed the bitterness of death in every heart and its haunting shadow in every mind. -sWhy have we done all.that? Because we are a great. philanthropic nation. Who owed those people so muc h that we could not trust them to the tender mercies of others. but must extend to them our powerful protection and elevate and uplift them by the influence of our humane Christian civilization.
