Wns?i I ngt on .-"The
appointed hour la
here: let the Phll-
IjJplnes be free."
This was the key-
note of a speech by
Congressman T2d-
wnrd J. ICJng of I1U-
nols, (Republican)
In which he review-
ed the American oc-
cupation of the 1 >
lands from the first
day to the present
Congressman Ed- «rae- He declared
ward J. King that the Unit ed
of Illinois. States wns honor
bound to grant In-
dependence without further delay.
Congressman King Is one of an In-
creasing number of Republicans In the
House who are urging quick action
on Philippine Independence. Mr.
King Is the author of a bill which pro-
vides that within one year the Philip-
pine government, under presidential
proclamation, may assemble a conven-
tion and frame a constitution.
After the constitution Is ratified by
the Filipino people the President may
recognize the Philippine Islands as "a
separate and self-governing nation."
The transfer of authority is to be
completed within one year. Provision
Is made for safeguarding American In-
vestments In the Philippines and for
the providing of coaling stations and
submarine liases In the islands by the
United States.
Word from the Philippines Is that
the people expect early Independence
and will be sorely disappointed if they
do not get it.
"No nation has the right," said Con-
gressman King "to hold another people
in peonage, even though It may be
argued by the professoriate that the
condition Is simply one of 'tutelage.'
"A little more observance of the
golden rule in national and Interna-
tional affairs would soon dispel that
desire for exploitation, the fiercest foe
of freedom In the world today.
"When we went to the Philippines
we declared before the whole world
that we were not actuated by any self-
ish desire of conquest or territorial
aggrandizement, but solely by humani-
tarian impulses."
Congressman King called attention
to the fact that Filipinos are now
raising funds to erect a monument to
Admiral Dewey, which he said wns In-
directly a tribute to the American peo-
ple as well as to Dewey. He recalled
the cable that Dewey had sent to
President McKluley, which was as
follows:
'In my opinion these people (Fili-
pinos) are superior in Intelligence and
more capable of self government than
the natives of Cuba, and I am familiar
with both."
Congressman King then recited the
preamble to the Jones law, passed
August 20, 1910, and declared It was a
definite pledge of Independence. The
preamble stated "It is as It has always
been the purpose of the people of
the United States to withdraw their
sovereignty over the Philippine Islands
and to recognize their independence as
soon a* a stable government can be
established therein."
Congressman King stated there was
no question but that the Filipinos' had
established the specified stable gov-
ernment and, therefore, it Is the
solemn duty of the United States 4o
grant the promised independence.

Oklahoma cotton farmers are band-
ing together In the Oklahoma Cotton,

cotton direct. No individual farmer
has enough cotton, to aall in tkis way,
nor has he the axperiefcee In cotton

age.
Growers representing ft production,
of 300 thousand "bai-'S or more, can,
however, by pooling their cotton and
hiring marktotlhg a; eclaiists equal to
those employed by the big private cot-
ton firms, deal direot with the apln-
ners.
This is what the members of the
