Argument for Philippine self governance and consent
A long passage argues that the United States acted from moral duty and consent of civilization to expel Spanish sovereignty in the Philippines, establish peace and beneficent government, and guide self governance, asserting no imperial designs and a future of liberty under American guidance. It stresses that the treaty and peace must precede any questions of liberty, while the Filipino welfare and rights are central to the mission.
