They blame wartime incompetence and Aguinaldo's leadership while General Otis and General Anderson face scrutiny. The piece traces multiple retreats and shifts in stance as supporters call for peace and criticise recognition of a Philippine republic.
The piece argues Aguinaldo aided Spain’s defeat with American arms to create U S control, cites Dewey on non alliance with insurgents, and condemns the Independent Order of American Copperheads as forced from defense of peace treaty. It predicts further retreat by these critics while asserting U S banner advances.
An interview with Lieutenant Homer Rickards discusses the Philippines, noting the rebellion’s backbone broken at Calumpit and predicting a swift end after the rainy season. He criticizes American forces’ manpower, analyzes Aguinaldo’s aims, and asserts that American occupancy is favored by informed natives. The piece also mentions General Weyler’s Madrid floor remark and cremation of Colonel Ingersoll.
