Democracy is keen on liberty-theoretically American democracy says the Filipinos ought 10 be free to vole so long as they rute right. So we gather from the following despatch in the Manila Cablenews :-
Washington, Argust 1.-The result of the election for delegates to the first Philippine Asurably has created consternation in the United Statem, Maby newspapers comment on the subject and point out the ignorance of the Filipinos as shown by their choice of legislator.
The Washington Post says the election shows the necessity of radical changes in the government here, and the ruling of the natives better methods, and ones calculated to by produce different results than those obtained in the election.
A number of eminent Congressmen through- out the country have been interriewed on the subject and stole their belief that recommen- alations will be mide to the next Congress for ach aging of the status of the islands.
