ONORATO IFTY years ago, this August 29, an elated Filipino watched President Woodrow Wilson sign into law the second or- ganic act of the Philippines. As the newsreel cameras and F photographers recorded for posterity the signing of the Jones Act, Manuel L. Quemn's mind must have wandered back over the years of bitter acrimony, long hours of debate, thousands of miles travelled in an effort to win support for the Philipipne cause, and hundreds of cipher cables that flowed between him and Sergio Osmeiia prior to its enactment by Congress. Maybe, in that moment of triumph he shut out the years of frustration. But whatever he was thinking at that historic hour, he must have reflected, for even a moment, on the alternations that this measure would cause in the relation- ship of the Philippines to the United States.

PREFACE To Abraham Lincoln, the Civil War was essentially a people's contest over the maintenance of a government dedi- cated to the elevation of man and the right of every citizen to an unfettered start in the race of life. President Lincoln believed that most Americans understood this, for he liked to boast that while large numbers of Army and Navy officers had resigned their commissions to take up arms against the government, not one common soldier or sailor was known to have deserted his post to fight for the Confederacy.

ABSTRACT “The Peculiar Status of Puerto Rico: Neither a State, nor an Independent Nation” is a study of the creation of the peculiar status of Puerto Rico. The research traces the steps from the American acquisition of Puerto Rico from Spain in 1898 to the granting of US citizenship to Puerto Ricans in 1917, cementing the ambiguous status of the island. The burgeoning industrial and agrarian economy of the late-nineteenth century United States generated an overproduction of goods without sufficient domestic and foreign markets. At the same time the closing of the frontier halted continental expansion, thus limiting the available free soil sought by the new waves of immigrants and their pressure pushing native populations westward. The combined economic forces of overproduction and the closing of the frontier led to social problems like unemployment and labor unrest, which consequently led to political problems subsequent administrations attempted to tackle. In search of new markets, the United States sought expansion into Central and South America bringing the US in conflict with Spain, still holding Cuba and Puerto Rico in the Caribbean.

    TRIUMPH OF THE NEW SOUTH: INDEPENDENT MOVEMENTS IN POST-RECONSTRUCTION POLITICS Volume II Brooks Miles Barnes Onancock, Virginia B.A., University of Virginia, 1972 M.A., University of Virginia, 1973 A Dissertation Presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Corcoran Department of History University of Virginia May, 1991 MISSISSIPPI The final years of Reconstruction in Mississippi saw both Republicans and Democrats abandon their efforts to attract the politically undecided. Instead, they began to cultivate the party faithful--the Republicans the black majority, the Democrats the white minority. Burdened by the heavy taxes levied by the Radical regime and disgusted by its incompetence and corruption, the Democrats resolved in 1875 to redeem the state by fair means or foul. They drew the color line, imposed strict discipline in their ranks, and used persuasion, intimidation, and violence to cow Republicans both black and white. l l William C.

  • The Taft Commission Was Created by President William Mckinley on March 16, 1900
    The Taft Commission was created by President William McKinley on March 16, 1900. The Commission acted as the Philippine’s legislature with William Howard Taft as its first head, hence its name. Taft served as head of the Commission until 1904. Between its inception and August 1902, the Commission issued 499 laws, established a judicial system, including a Supreme Court, drew up a legal code to replace antiquated Spanish ordinances and organized a civil service. The 1901 municipal code provided for popularly elected presidents, vice presidents, and councilors to serve on municipal boards. In January 1899, President McKinley appointed Dr. Jacob Gould Schurman to chair a commission to investigate conditions in Philippines and make recommendations. Fighting had erupted between U.S. and Filipino forces in February, and the non- military commission members found General Otis looking at the commission as an infringement upon his authority when they arrived in March. In the report that they issued to the president the following year, the commissioners acknowledged Filipino aspirations for independence; they declared, however, that the Philippines was not ready for it. Specific recommendations included the establishment of civilian control over Manila, creation of civilian government as rapidly as possible, especially in areas already declared “pacified” including the establishment of a bicameral legislature, autonomous governments on the provincial and municipal levels, and a system of free public elementary schools. The Philippine Organic Act of July 1902 approved, ratified, and confirmed President McKinley’s Executive Order establishing the Philippine Commission and stipulated that their legislature would be composed of a lower house, the Philippine Assembly, which would be popularly elected, and an upper house consisting of the Philippine Commission.
