The C7.fiicso legation brought the matter to the attention of the Washington authorities, at whose request the investigation is being made. The PhilipWashington, Jan. 29. pines for the Filipinos," will be the keynote of the policy of Secretary Taft toward the Far Eastern archipelago. In almost the last speech he made before leaving the Philippines for home he reiterated this keynote which he first sounded when he was Inaugurated governor of the Philippines. This speech has been published by the Insular government in an official form, and has just reached the war department In it Governor Taft declared that this doctrine does not exclude the encouragement of American enterprise or the American investment of capital in the Philippines, for the rear son that nothing, not even education or a free form of government, can make for the elevation and civilization of the Filipino people more than the investment of American capital in the material development of theso islands."

Is there any good reason why the world should wXt for the conclusion of war to summon a similar council?
