Spooner's Eloquent Plea for the
Philippine BUI Spirited Colloquy
With Hoar Pettus and 31c-
Laurin Spoke
Hissing: In the Senate Is bo unusual
that -when It occurred, In the course- o
the Philippines debate, yesterday. It
created a. sensation. Spooner was speak
lngr, and referred Incidentally, to the
story that 1000 Filipinos had been put
to death by American troops In trenches
which they -were compelled to dig.
Lodge said the story had been denied
by the father of the edldler who had
started It, and that the "War Depart
ment had cabled to General Chaffee to
ascertain the facts. Carnjack Inter
rupted to say that so doubt the soldiers
would deny the story, as all soldiers In
the Philippines had been required to do.
HIa remark was greeted with hisses
from the galleries, the demonstration of
disapproval calling out a sharp rapping
of the gavel from the chair.
"WASHINGTON, May 3L Spooner oc
cupied nearly five hours of today's session
of the Senate in concluding his speech
begun Thursday. His eloquence and
earnestness attracted the attention of all
Senators and of hundreds of occupants of
the crowded galleries. He maintained
that the United States could not leave
the Philippines "like a coward," and aban
don people who had come under our pro
tection, thus surrendering them to "tyran
ny and chaos." He did not believe in
the admission of the Philippines to the
Union as states, but in the conduct of the
islands nothing savoring of imperialism
had been suggested for party purposes.
In the course of his speech, Spooner be
came involved In a spirited colloquy with
Hoar, during which Spooner read a stat
ute of the State of Massachusetts, which
offered a reward of 100 for the scalps
of male Indians over the ago of 12 years.
Hoar declared that It was a cruel and bar
barous law, and Spooner himself did not
rttempt to Justify it, simply cklng It as
an instance of cruelty in the lighting of
savage natives. Pettus discussed some
of the legal phases of the Philippine ques
tion und McLaurin (Miss.) insisted that
the Democrats in the Senate had not slan
dered the Army, as had been charged.
At the conclusion of routine business
consideration of the Philippine bill
was resumed. Beveridge presented cer
tain excerpts from the testimony taken
by the Philippine committee arranged
carefully with reference to certain phases
of the Philippine question, and requested
that they be printed In the Congressional
Record. Beveridge explained that they
covered particular points In the testi
mony arranged in logical sequence, and
It was perfectly fair and just.
Hoar said that he thought a compila
tion of the kind ought to have the sanc
tion of the Philippine committee, and he
moved thit the matter be referred to
that committee.
Beveridge said that the widest latitude
had beeny afforded the minority in the
publication of matter of record, and he
thought it scarcely fair that objection
should be made to the request. Allison
hoped Hoar would withdraw his motion,
and indicated some criticism of the Mas
sachusetts Senator's action.
As Hoar would not withdraw his mo
tion, Beveridge withdrew his request, an
nouncing that later he would read the
matter, if nccessarj. to get it in the
Record.
Spooner llennmcx Ills Speech.
In resuming his speech begun on Thurs
day, Spooner referred to a statement of
Hear, a minute before, that ought not to
be saddled on this Philippine debate. One
trouble, one of the weaknesses of the
discussion, and one of the wicked ele
ments, he said, is the fact that there
had been, and were now, sides in this
question. He thought there ought not to
be "sldefe" on this Philippine debate.
"It is," he said, "a question ihlch be
longs to the American people. It is a
problem of deJicacy and of some danger,
and a weapon of no man and of no par
ty. The Interest of all men in public and
private'lifc is to get at the truth with
out private opinion or party strife.
"I have not been in favor of perma
nent dominion over the Philippines," slid
Spooner, "but I do not mean by that that
I have been in favor of the United States
running away like a coward and aban
doning a people who have come under
our protection or surrendering them to
tranny, anarchy and chaos."
He said he never had been able to con
template with equanimity the admission
of the Philippines as a state or states.
Nothing was dearer to him, except his
home ties, than that this Government
should be confined to this continent. No
question of imperialism, he said, had been
raised in this problem, except for party
purposes.
"There never before has been an in
stance," he declared, "where a portion
of the American people have sought In
cessantly and, I think, unfairly, to put
this country in the wrong and to stain
the honor of the country with dishonor.
They have formed a narrow and squint
eyed view of every question cf fact."
He said the United States never would
seek a. war, but if attacked we had the
power to resist, and when the time came
to dictate terms of peace, "the United
States might demand and accept acceded
territory that is inhabited without first
securing the consent of the Inhabitants.
Spooner declared that there was little or
no similarity between the conditions of
Cuba and those of the Philippines.
"Those Senators," he insisted, "who
cannot see the difference between the
Philippines and Cuba have some sort of
mental strabismus. An attempt has been
made to show that the reconcntrado es
tablished by General "Weyler In Cuba has
been imitated by the United States In
the Philippines, but the only testimony
in support of that statement Is from
ambush, with all traces of Identification
destroyed.
"If weiad left Spain In control of the
islands," said Spooner, discussing our
taking of the Philippines, "never as long
as we live would some portions of our
people have ceased to denounce us lor
having sailed away from Manila like a
batch of cowards, leaving the Filipinos to
come again under the tyranny of Spain,
or, still worse, to lapse Into anarchy,
civil war, murder, loot and violence."
DIviion for Party Purposes.
Spooner pointed out how harmful the
division upon the Philippine question
among Americans was, and declared that
the division was largely for party pur
poses. "If Congress had recognized the inde
pendence of the Filipinos," said he, "in
ftcad of being there as we arc now, with
a title which the Supreme Court of the
United States says is complete, which
the Senate has accepted as complete,
which Congress paid for as complete,
which the world recognizes as complete,
which gives i the power to do what is
generous and noble and right and up
lifting to that principle, we would bo
there on the slutting sands of contract
wjtt) a former tyrant, J thjpk that 3d
has saved us from that unutterable folly.
It would have been worse Infinitely
worsethan the proposition to recognize
the Republic of Cuba, which would have
( subjected us to- an order to leave Cuba
uii uaj.
Later, Hoar said if the Inhabitants of
the Philippines- were not t people, there
were millions of men acting: together, who
raised an army, selected a General,
turned Spain out of all territory except
only the City of Manila, and agreed upon
a constitution, republican In form.
"They would be a people," replied
Spooner, "If that were true."
"It Is true," said Hoar.
"I deny it," Insisted Spooner. "I deny
thit there Is more than superficial truth
In It." He referred to the FIHplno Army
as a collection of miscellaneous persons
who now constitute bands of bandits and
cutthroats.
Carmack interrupted to Inquire If Ad
miral Dewey had dealt with that kind of
people.
"I suppose," said Spooner, "that the
Senator from Tennessee will claim thit
tle Filipino Army was composed of liberty-loving,
patriotic and law-abiding cit
izens." Carmack said he assumed that it was
not an army made up of outlaws and
ruffians.
Spooner said that one of the leading
Generals of the Filipino Army Pio del
y
L. A. McNARY
. i.
v, , & -SSIrW KSS ..O - ZX?
REGULAR REPUBLICAN NOMINEE FOI? CITY ATTORNEY,
Pilar was notoriously the leader of a
band of cutthroats and outlaws.
Carmack declared that. If the "charge"
of Spooner was accurate, Admiral Dewey
should be branded and turned out of the
Navy.
Spooner retorted that that was only
one of the Democratic charges against
the Army and .Navy. He declared Agul
nildo's army was an army which had de
manded to enter Manila for loci and
rapine; which had violated the rules of
civilized warfare: which had perpetrated
atrocities not only upon American pris
oners, but upen countless thousands of
Filipinos, and had respected neither sex.
Spooner referred to the diary of one of
the officers of Aguinaldo. who described
the peregrinations of Aguinaldo. Spooner
said Aguinaldo had "a government .of
proclamations, of confiscations and assas
sinations, and the evidence all shows It."
Spooner quoted from the diary referred
to to show that Aguinaldo had said that
once the Independence of the Filipinos
was declared, he (Aguinaldo) and his
friends would, take a trip to Europe with
an allowance of 51,000,000 for expenses.
Spooner referred to the last Presidential
campaign and the candidacy of Mr.
Bryan, and to the assertions of the Fill
plno leaders that the success of Dem
ocracy meant the Independence of the
Filipinos. Then after saying that the
American people had passed upon the
Philippine question at the polls, he said:
lou cannot charge upon the ratincatlon
of the treaty, nor upon the sending of our
Army to the Philippines, all the blood
shed or all the cruelties that came to
that Army."
Encouragement to Tannin.
He thought it was an unhappy thing
that words of encouragement, words de
nouncing the Senate for havi.ig bought
unconstitutionally the sovereignty of the
Philippines, should go to the Philippines,
saying that we were violating the
Declaration of Independence and promis
ing that in case of Democratic success at
the polls the Filipinos would be granted
independence under a protectorate. Those
statements had prolonged the war. em
barrassed the operations of the Govern
ment and made it difficult speedily to
carry to fruition the blessings which the
United States desired to confer. Refer
ring to General Smith's order for the
killing of all inhabitants of Samar above
10 years of age, Spooner quoted the wit
ticism that the Pilgrims on landing first
fell upon their knees and then upon the
Indians. He read from a statute of
Massachusetts)f 1722 offering a reward of
.100 for every male Indian calp, 12 years
old and upward, and of 50 a scalp of
those klKd in battle.
Hoar Interrupted to say that the Purl
tans had bought and paid for every foot
of land acquired from the Indians, and
that the statute of 1722 was cruel and
barbarous. "Do you approve It?" he de
manded, "when, at the beginning of the
20th century, you moke it a precedent?"
"I think." said Spooner, "that our fath
ers bought the lands of the Indians In
Massachusetts and then proceeded to buy
their scalps. Senators who denounce our
policy in the Philippines In general lan
guage on ex parte testimony ought not
to forget that our forbears, brave men In
war, found It necessary to resort In war
to what, in time of peace, no man on
earth would approve."
"Does the Senator approve of that or
der," demanded Hoar, "In war or in
peace?"
"If it were necessary," suggested Spoon
er, "to make the order In Massachusetts
so that the Pilgrim might protect his
home from destruction, his wife from de
bauchery and his children from cruelty,
I would have done wnat he has dbne."
"It never was necessary to do It," Hoar
declared. "It was a base and, wicked or
der, and when the Senator talks of for
bears, I am happy to say that the man
of that generation who bore my name
Incurred obloquy and Indignities through
resisting things then as I do now." (Ap
plause.) Hoar said he thanked God he never
had found a man in a place of power
who would not stand up for the right.
"And you will nevor find any man,
thank God." declared Spooner, "who can
proporly impeach the American Army for
acts that ought not to have -been com
mittedthe acts of a few Isolated in
stancesthe Army as a whole."
"Our Army," replied Hoar, "Is com
posed, of bravo anfl humane men. In V
war of this kind cruelties always have
occurred, and the responsibility for them
I rests not upen the Army but upon those
who are responsible for the policy.
"I stand for the army. of McKInley,"'
declared Spooner, "fo'r the Army that has
been charged with the mission by the
1 American people who supported these pol
icies at the polls."
Spooner said to Hoar that If he did not
believe his party was right and could not
act with it, he could vote for the other
party.
This elicited quite a long reply from
Hoar, who paid a tribute to Spooner, to
McKInley and to Roosevelt, Hoar said he
did not believe the Democratic party was
right in its view of the question. He be
lieved that the Republican party would
work out the problem right in the end.
but that it should be shown that its pres
ent policy was wrong. He could not be
expected to abandon a party in whose
I policies in the main he believed to Join.a
party to whoso policies he was opposed.
Reference was made by Spooner to the
alleged letter that had been written by a
soldier about 1000 Filipinos being com
pelled to dig their own graves. This had
been repudiated. Lodge said that the "War
Department bad caused an investigation
to be made by questioning the soldier
himself.
"No doubt," replied Carmack, "under
this suggestion the soldier will repudiate
It, as every soldier In the Philippines has
been required to do."
This assertion brought out a small vol
ley of hisses, but the disorder was soon
supprassed.
Dlscusting the bills offered by the ma
jority and by the minority, Spooner said:
"We will go ahead with an honest pur
pose, with your help If we can get It (ad
dressing the Democratic side); if not, we
will go on without It, and it will not be
the first time."
In conclusion, Spooner declared that if
the Democratic party ever obtained con
trol of the Government, no such "fatuous
and cowardly policy" as suggested by the
minority would be followed.
At 5:15 P. M. the Senate took a recess
until 8 o'clock.
The Night Session.
At the opening of the night session Car
mack. who had made severaj speeches dur
ing the day. took the floor. In explana
tion of the protracted nature of the de
bate, he said it had been carried on by the
minority in the hope that the bill would
be purged of its most objectionable fea
tures. All hope of substantial amend
ment for the bill was now abandoned. He
scoffed at Morgan's theory that the Fili
pino insurgents were the "tools of wicked
conspirators at Hong Kong," saying that
that was the dishonored plea .of despots,
the plea of conquest and murder and rob
bery in all ages. He proceeded in an ex
ceedingly sarcastic vein to reply to aome
of Morgan's arguments. He said he did
not know of a more dangerous doctrine
than that advanced, by Morgan, that the
Army was more representative of the peo
ple than Congress. He did not believe
that the United States had reached the
stage of degeneration and decay when the
custody of Its liberties rested in the
Army. Carmack insisted It was the plain
duty of the majority, to everybody con
cernedthe American people as well, as the
Filipinos to proclaim what Is to be the
ultimate purpose of the Administration's
policy in the Philippines.
The charge that Democratic Senators
had defamed and slandered the American,
Army he (Carmack) denounced as a
"truthless calumny." He and his col
leagues had only assailed the policy that
.sent the Army to the Philippines and a
few of the officers who had disgraced the
uniform they wore. He specifically de
sired to disclaim any intention of attack
ing the Army as a whole. He quoted ex
tracts from many Republican papers de
nouncing the brutality of General Smith's
order. Yet, he said. Lodge had found In
the tortures Inflicted in the Philippines
only natural acts of vengeance,
"Tne apologists of lynchlngs In the
South," he continued, "will find able sup
port In the statements of the Senator from
Massachusetts. I have never sought to
uphold mob law or the practice of lawless
vengeance on any criminal, no matter
how black his crime."
Proceeding with the discussion of out
rages committed upon the natives, Car
mack declared that in order to offset the
revelations that had been, made, the au
thorities here were as busily engaged in
furnishing details of every outrago com
mitted by the Filipinos a3 they had been
earlier In the. war In suppressing the truth
relative to the Insurrection.
Carmack referred to President .Roose
velt's Memorial day address at Arlington,
saying that he judged from what the Pres
ident had said about lynching In the South
that that cry was to 'be the Administra
tion's favorite ground of defense of its
policy in the Philippines. He had thought

that tho waving of the bloody shirt was
an effort to revive sectfonaV hatred.
"But I admit I was mistaken," said he,
"Th,e Republicans used to keep the South
ern outrages mill grinding; holding up our
terrible and bloody deeds to the execra
tion of mankind. That was. for political
purposes. Now they are seeking prece
dents to excuse their policy In the Philip
pines. The President gives the cue. He
says It Is the same old rebel yell, the
same old people who vilified Grant and
Lincoln as they are now vilifying the great
and magnanimous Smith-.
"Oh. Mr. President, you cannot throw,
dust In the eyes of the people in that way.
This attempt at diversion will not do.'1
At 10:20 P. M. Carmack concluded and
the Senate adjourned.

THE SECRET.
How Doctors Prote'ct Themselves
From Contagious Diseases.
Doctors rarely catch contagious diseases.
Almost everybody knows this, but few
know how they escape. Many believe
that the doctor has some charm or antf
septlc which protects him. Dr. Hartman
lately made the truth of this matter pub
lic, that all might realize its benefit. Con
tagious diseaeos are conveyed by minute
organisms known as disease germs. These
germs find their entrance into the sys
tem through the mucous membrane. If
