Our duty to J.he Filipinos Is far from

For educational, sanitary and political
reason, tho nrcsldont said, this country
should not consent to grant Independence
at this time.
"If the task wo have undertaken la
higher than that assumed by other na
tions," continued tho president, "It ac
complishment must demand oven more
patience. To confer Independence upon
the Filipinos now Is, therefore, to sub
ject tho great maun of their people to
the dominance of nn oligarchial and,

course will be a cruel to those people as
It would bo shameful to us."
In addition to his advice In regard to
legislation and his opposition to pending
measures, the president discussed the
prosperity of tho nation, its financial con
dltlon and the proponed system of a na
tional budget showing proposed expendi
tures and revenues and called attention

The first I heard of MoNaraara'a usina-

Vhy was it that as an executive of
this union, yon didn't know of these

The waterways congress also passed a

borne commerce afforded by said law

Htylo farm mortgages could bo replaced
with short or long term farm bonds. A
A chain of new banks throughout the
country to be authorised by the varloua
legislatures under a uniform law nnd n
listing of the bonds on stock exchanges
aro contemplated.
Under tho terms of the resolution, the
bill to bo drafted by tho corijmlttee shall
bo submitted to the governors of all the.
states and must bo approved, by two
thirds of them before It shall be went to
tho legislatures. 1
"I hold In my hand," sold Governor
Blease, whon he rose to defond himself,
"tho fourth letter threatening my life
that I have received today! I was
Imhded that just now by 'someone I did
not know, and It was address od me In
oare of, the governor of Virginia.
"I know nothing of the letter, sir," re
torted Governor Mann of Virginia. : "I
never heard of It before; I did not re-
delve It; I know nothing of its contents."
Order la Restored.
When the vigorous rapping of the chair.
man had brought order ho continued:
"You are making yourselves ridiculous
In the eyea of the nation. Why do you
have to declare against mob law? They
ought to know you back In your homes.
They ought to meet you each one at tho
railroad station with a brass band and
say, 'Governor, we're glad you didn't en
dorse the utterances ot that South Caro
linian.'
When. I said I never would order out
the mllltla to piotect the black brute who
UUd his desecrating hands upon, a white
woman I spoke the truth. Isay It now
again. That' Is my position, gentlemen,
and If you don't ajrreo with me. In the
words of tho great Virginian, 'Go to ltl' "
The four governors, who voted against
the resolution declared emphatically that
they opposed, mob violence. They voted
III the negative, they said, because they
thought they would exceed the rights of
the conference and violate the courtesy
due a colleague should tboy vote to rep
rimand. On the final ballot Governor
Bloase did not vote. After the result had
been announced he arose and said:
"I did not vote, gentlemen, because It
makes no difference to me, one way or
the other, what this conference thinks or
does."
Says lie W'u Mlsrrpresented.
"It doesn't matter," continued Gov
ernor Btease. "I speak nobody's opinion
but my own. The newspaper headlines
have misrepresented me. When. ! spoke
yesterday about the marriage of Jack
Johnson In Chicago, I did not say he
would bo lynched In South Carolina; I
did say that the laws ot my state forbade
the marrluge, nnd T did say that I did
not know, If the marriage had been per
formed In Bouth Carolina, -whether the
law protecting him would have been
poralblo of enforcement or not
"Now, what I want to say to you la
this: I don't care one whit whether you
adopt this resolution or not. You may
expel me for all I care. On the 21st day
of next January I will begin my second
term as governor. On the fourth of
March, 191$, If God spares me, I will bo
sworn In as a member ot tha United
States senate. I snap my fingers at your
resolutions, for all the resolutions and
all the motions you may aet on will not
avail to keep me out.
"Long after many of you gentlemen
here today are resting In the shades of
private life X will be reaping the rewards
of publlo service. Long after you good .
governors are uo longer ' governors tho J
white women ot South Carolina will pray
for me with their arms around thtlr girls',
and will arise from their knees to ktsa
their husbands and beg them to go to
tho ballot box and vote for Blease to
protect them from their dally terror." I
A faint round of applause rippled over
the conference hall, succeeded by a storm
of hisses.
A dozen governors, thinking the South
Carolinian had concluded, clamored for
recognition, but he held the floor and
smiled at the turmoil.
"What care I for your biases?" he
shouted, shaking his clencBed fist at the
chairman and turning to face his col
leagues. ' Hiss If you must! , Only snakes and
geese hiss."
Again his voice waa drowned In the
storm.
