14 ÆäÀÌÁö - The truth is that, from a political standpoint, the unlimited introduction of the Chinese into these islands would J>ea great mistake. I believe the objection on the part of the Filipinos to such a course to be entirely logical and justified. The development of these islands by Chinamen would be at the expense of the Filipino people, and they may very well resent such a suggestion.
15 ÆäÀÌÁö - ... laborers, who may contribute to the construction of buildings and the making of other improvements, and who at the same time by their labor may communicate to Filipino apprentices the skill which the Filipinos so easily acquire. Such skilled laborers might be admitted under bond of their employers that they shall be returned to China at the end of three or five years, the bond containing a provision also that for every Chinaman imported and employed a Filipino apprentice should be employed. Further...
9 ÆäÀÌÁö - July of this year, and since that time an American soldier has not been called upon once to discharge his weapon. The country has been policed by the constabulary, a force of some 5,000 or 6,000 men. It may be that as the conditions grow worse — for they are likely to do so before they grow better — it will be necessary in a province like Cavite, where ladronism seems inbred in the people, to proclaim martial law and even to call in the military finally to suppress it; but it is still hoped that...
27 ÆäÀÌÁö - ... adopted a reconcentration policy on a small scale, and the effect of that has been to bring the ladrones in from the mountains to surrender in considerable numbers, and the province is being rapidly rid of this human pest. The conditions in Cavite, however, have not been so favorable, and it is with the greatest reluctance that any rifles are distributed to the municipal police, because the sympathizers with the ladrones in the towns are so many that the rifles may be stolen. There have been...
16 ÆäÀÌÁö - The conditions of war and of disturbance throughout the islands for six years have led the men to form loafing and gambling habits and have interfered with their regular life of industry. Where such restlessness prevails industry is apt to be absent. The Filipino laborers must be given three or four years before an intelligent and just verdict can be pronounced upon their capacity for effective labor. I am confident that it will be greatly better than the suffering merchants of Manila anticipate....
10 ÆäÀÌÁö - ... than those of banditti. They have stirred up in some of the provinces the organization of so-called secret societies for the purpose of securing agencies with which successfully to conduct their robbery and to sell the fruits of it. In other parts of the country, notably in Tayabas and in Samar, the restlessness succeeding the war, and the poverty and difficulty of living, have induced many of the ignorant and superstitious people to withdraw to the mountains, under the leadership of leaders...
33 ÆäÀÌÁö - Aglipay in this movement was Isabelo de los Reyes, the former editor of an insurrecto paper, published in Madrid, called Filipinas ante Europa, and an agitator of irresponsible and irrepressible character. Padre Aglipay has secured the active and open cooperation of a number of native priests, 15 of whom he has appointed bishops, himself having the title of archbishop. He has held mass in many different places in and about Manila; his services have attracted large gatherings of people. Most of the...
34 ÆäÀÌÁö - In the case of a church at Pandacan the women of the parish, in the temporary absence of the priest, took possession of the church, obtaining the keys, and Father Aglipay celebrated mass in the church. I sent for him and for his counsel and advised them of the unlawful character of the action of the women, and directed them to see that possession was restored. They promised to do so, but found the women so obdurate that I called in the women and after a somewhat lengthy discussion told them that...
34 ÆäÀÌÁö - Aglipay. I turned the keys over to the chief of police and have put the regularly appointed priest in possession of the church, and quiet now reigns there. Yesterday (Sunday) I am informed that Father Aglipay assumed the robes and functions of an archbishop, holding services in the town of Cavite and in the neighborhood. I have taken occasion to say, whenever an opportunity occurred, that the insular government desired to take no part whatever in the religious controversies thus arising; that it...
34 ÆäÀÌÁö - ... appointed bishops, himself having the title of archbishop. He has held mass in many different places in and about Manila; his services have attracted large gatherings of people. Most of the churches in the Philippine Islands were built by the labor of the people of the respective parishes and devoted to the Roman Catholic Church; but the people have a sense of ownership, and when a majority of them separate themselves from the Roman Catholic Church and accept a new faith, it is difficult for...
