Yet, some Senators say, Mr. President, that we must give up the Philippines to Aguinaldo and his followers and let them do a» they will, reckoning them as fit to establish government and pro- mote peace and order throughout the archipelago. What stu- pendous folly: What height of blindness! Is it possible that they have studied the acts and doings of these marauders? Are they conversant with their conduct at the taking of Manila? If so, they must know that it took all the efforts of the America...n Army to restrain these outlaws from sacking and looting the city, and in- stead of aiding our soldiers to carry the city, they retarded them seriously in their operations. Their sole idea of war seems to be the enriching of themselves at the cost of the vanquished. Pro- fessor Worcester, of the late Philippine Commission, in a speech before the Hamilton Club of Chicago last November, after review- ing some of the outrages perpetrated by the Filipinos upoa their own countrymen, says: In Cafvite province, just south of Manila, the insurgent troops had robbed the inhabitants of the principal towns, and had committed very numerous assaults on women.
