Th roir.nilsslon announces itself unquali fiedly In favor of a government of the Phil ippines analogous to that of a territory of ho United States , with a governor ap- rointcd by the president. The commlsMcn- ers say it Is desirable that the Inhabitants of the archipelago should enjoy substan- * tallv the rights and privileges of towns In a territory Hi-alnnlnir Mn } lip Mndi * nt Once. The provinces should be vested with sub- a'an'Ially the functions of a county In a tcr- " torr this system might be applied to > Luzon and the Vlscayan Islands at once ati'l v beginning might be made on the coast of Mindanao. The Sulu archipelago , call ing ' < n special arrangements with the sultan 'be ommisslon sajs , need not be considered in 'bis connection. Th Filipinos could manage their own 'o n and county affairs through their own offl' era whom they could elect with no help from American officials , except such as ' would be involved In control from the cen- ral go\crnment at Manila. The suffrage should be restricted by educational or prop erty qualifications , or both. This system would necessitate a small body \merlcan oQVials of great ability and Integrity and of patience and tact In dealing with other races and on this account the commission recommends that they should be paid high salaries The . ommisaion sa > s they could be called advisers or commissioners and that one for eiprv JjO.OOO natives should suffice It would be the duly of such commissioners to report on their work to the central gov ernment at Manila. Their mam function would be to ad\ise town and county coun cils in the discharge of their duties and to nat h the collection of revenue and Its expenditures Our goxernment of the Phil ippines the commission Ineists , must be ' adapted to the Filipinos. The commission discusses the svstem of goxcminentby" a protectorate and board over the Majajan peninsula by Great Brit ain. deeming such -H protectorate iaad\isa- hle it having been Instituted for the reason that England had no sovereignty there. The United States , hich possess.es sovereignty o\er the Philippines , need not concern It self wrh such a scheme The mass of .the people except In the Sulu group and some portions of Mindanao and Pala van. which are without chieftains or rulers are with out distinction of birth or rank , in other words are a pure democracy. The kind of a protectorate which the insurgent lead ers desired , the ( .omrnitsion sajs , is one in whi h the United States would assume all rcsprnnblllty for protecting the Philippine goxernment against foreign aggression , while its oun olllciala would collect revenues.

But neither style of govern > - ment. the commission points out. after lengthy argument , should be applied to the Philippines A territorial government , it concludes. Is a desideratum. The commission takes as a baste for the government proposed the ter- rltorlal organization of Louisiana. The act Is set forth In full It provides for a gov ernor and secretary of the treasury and vexts the legislative power In a council appointed annually by the president. Courts ire also provided for "This schema of government ' soys the commission , "possesses , besides Its Intrinsic merits , the historical interest attaching to origination with the author of the Declara tion of Independence Jefferson had outlined - . lined a first sketch as early as November. I | 1808 He seems to have felt no Incon- } grulty between the principles of the Dccla- i ] ration of Independence of the thirteen sell- j governing colonies nnd this scheme of ? ov- ! eminent for the politically Inexperienced In- I habitants of Louisiana. Indeed , he com plains with some bitterness. In Decem ber , 1S03. when differences of opinion de veloped as to the manner of disposing of Louisiana , that 'although It Is acknowledged that our new fellow-citizens are as yet as incapable of self-government as children , yet some cannot bring themselves to suspend - pend Its principles for a single moment' " In connection with the subject of govern ment the commission reaches the following conclusions I The United Slates cannot withdraw from the Philippines. We are there and duty bids us remain There Is no escape i from our responsibility to the Filipinos and to mankind for the government of the arch- ! ipelago anil th amelioration of the condi- | tlon of its Inhabitants II The Fillplnob are wholly unprepared for independence , and If independence were given to them they could not maintain it Under the third head is Included a copv of Admiral Deweys letter to Senator Lodge , which was read in the senate the other day. denying Agulnaldo's claim that he was prom ised Independence IV There being no Philippine nation. but only a collection of different peoples. there is no general public oolnlon In the archipelago , but the men of property and ed ucation , who alone Interest themselves in public affairs. In general recognize as in dispensable American authority , guidance and protection. V Congress should , at the earliest prac ticable time , provide for-tbe. Philippines the form of government herein recommended , or another equally beneficial. VI Pending any action on the part of congress , the commission recommends that the president put in operation this scheme of civil government in such parts of the archipelago as are at peace VII So far as the finances of the Phil ippines permit , public education should be promptly established , and when established made free to all. VIII The greatest care should be taken In the selection of officials for administraj tion. They should be men of the highest character and fitness- and partisan politics- should be entirely separated from the gov ernment of the Philippines. PUN-IONS ? FOR WEisTEU.N VETEIH > J ? .
