Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Report of the Tenth Annual Meeting of the Anti-Imperialist League: November 28, 1908 and Its Adjournment, November 30
Permit me, gentlemen of the Chamber, to declare solemnly before God and before the world, upon my conscience as deputy and representative of my compatriots and under my responsibility as president of this Chamber, that we believe the people desire independence, that it conceives itself capable of leading an orderly existence, efficient both in internal affairs and externally as one of the concert of free and civilized nations, and that we believe that if at this moment the United States should grant the suit of the Filipino people for liberty, that people, upon assuming responsibility, could dis charge to the full its obligations toward it self and toward others, without detriment to liberty, to law or to justice.
