TAFT ' SHOWS

Of SELFISHNESS.
WANTS CONSTITUTION AMENDED
Says Our Treatment of the Philippine
Islands Has Not Been
rai
Wants to Enlist Sympathy of Missouri
in -Effort to Rerise Laws Wants
Free" Trade , With the Islands Says
We Should Show Good Faith.
KANSAS CITY, Nov. 20. Secretary
Tait as the ixest of honor at the an
nual banquet of tluj Commercial elob
ail, in r-?poniling to the toast "The
rhilipjunes:" :. Tbe Philippines are
ours and must le ours for a generation.
It is quite ' probablj that those 1 who
will be called upon to act as legislators
wilfi not live tiAwe the day wh;n a
separation, consistent with the welfare
of the Philippines can be made." The
occasion of the banquet- was the an
niversary of the signing of the John
Jay commercial treaty. ThousanbV of
persons greeted the se'er-tary during
the day ami everywhere he was given
the most enthusiastic reception, lie
left for Chicago immediately after din
ner. Henator Warner aeteti as toast
master. The secretary wa givn an
ovation wh.n he arose to speak.
Mr. Taft said in part:
'ln all the legislation for which eon-
Zrea is responsible affecting the Phii-
ippins islands : there are but two acts
whitfh can be criticized an havinz a
wTnsh motive. "One is what we might
rail the coastwise act, the effect of
which is to require that after July 1,
lOOfi, all freight from the Philippine
islands to the United States and the
reverse shall lie carried in American
lottoms and the other is the law by
which then is iinjiosed on products of
the Philippine islands corning into the
United States 75 per cent of the Ding
ley rates. Jf the coastwise act is per
mitted to come into effect, and the tax
upon I'hiiippine products w not remov
ed, we have congress assuming the ut
terly indefensible pos'tion that for thC
purjwse of the sal-j- of the Philippine
products by the Filipinos the Philip
pines shall be regarded as , treated as
3 foreign country, while for the pur
pose of furnishing business to ' the
American merchant marine they shall
he treated as a. domestic country and
shall be made to pay the higher rates
of freight which such a coastwise provision-'
necessarily entails and implies.
"The object of my coming to jvan
tas City is to enlist your sympathy in
an effort so t amend the constitution
in otir statute books' so that we shall
lc consistent in our treatment of the
Philippines and shall repeal laws which
will give th.- lie to every assertion of
disinterestedness and food faith in our
dealing with our wards of tne Pacific.
"The legislation proposed for the re
lief of the FhilipHnes is an act post
poning the application of the coastwise
trading laws to the trade, between the
Philippine islands and the United
States until VMM, the reduction of the
tariff on. sugar and tobacco from
per cent to 25.1"r r"t tf the Dng'y
rates and on 'other products of the
Philippines, free trale until 19, when
there shall be complete free trade in the
products of either.'
Secretary Taft snid that tho two in
terests in this country arrayed in op
position to free trad? with the Philip
pine, islands are the sugar interest ami
the tobacco interest. I hes are inter
ested on th? ground that all the bene
fit and all th gmMl whim the country
proposes to confer njwn the Philippines
would result solely in an injury) to the
sugar and tobacco interests and at their
exjiense alone, without any cost to the
rest of the country,
"It will be found," said he, "that
thes complaining interests are not ob
H'tinjf to this measure of justice to the
Uhilippines because it is going to cause
them immediate loss but leeauae tney
suppose in years to come, with the en
couragement that the! American market
will Rive to the prnhiction of tobacco
and sugar in the Philippines theremay
come a time when the tobacco and 'su
gar from the Philippines will enter into
competition with that which tney pro
dnc in this coiintry. The attitude of
these men,, who really know the facts,
cannot be describe JT ns other than the
quintessence of nclnshoess in opposing
the graihml betterment 01 the proine
tion of sugar and tobacco in the Phil
ippines by opening the American mar
ket, when their feaf t injury is found
ed on presumption most improbable."
He kc fared 1 that nnl-ss the Philip
pines, importations J into ike United
States roust increase from less than
50,000 tons as it now is to 1,800,000
tons, it will not affect the price at
wlikh sugar will b sold fn the' United
States. "But it is said," he contin
ned, "that i.f yon. open the markets of j
the United 'states to .the Philippines
sugar the increase in its production will
be unlimited and no one can say howi
enormons ' ths s Philippines production
will become. " The greatest amount of
sugar ever prondced for exportation in
the Philippines was in 1893, when the
total exportation reached 260.000 tons.
The total consumed in the Philippines
i about 30,000 tons. Now the proposi
tion that the American market, is going
to- offer such a motive for the produc
tion of sugar in the Philippine islands
as to increase its exportation from
100,000 tons a year to 1,800,000 tons is
palpably bsrd. "
Other toasts responded to were as

Nvcr ln-fore in the history if thfl

prehensive as is the r'jHirt for lti4,
which has just b"n published. The
number of mine owners who refuse to
report their prtMluction is ii"W extreme,
ly shihII, and there is, in fact, a very
large and growing number of eoutpiiiiies
that nil longer make a nee ret if their
prtMluction -.of gold and silver. A.r.
Waldemar Lindgwii, geoltigisl;, who is
well known in the most important gold

The Production 01 Oold.
The production of gold" in tlwj United

721 fine ounces, valued at H0,S.1.,r,S.
This represents an increase of 7,21.1,

a periixl of v-ery rapid advance in the
gold prduction from 1MH2 to 1.hm, tlur
ing which an increase from $.1.'1,0(Iii.iiim
to 7l,l"l0 took place, there follow
ed two years of nearly stationary out

risen again with a bound to record -fig

The Production or Silver.
