dc.description.abstractThe victory of Admiral Dewey over the Spanish squadron on that memorable battle of Manila Bay on May 1, 1898 ended the despotism and tyranny of Spain over the people of the Philippine Islands; and, at the same time ushered in a new order in colonial administration. The idea of a dependency on the other side of the Pacific was wholly new to the majority of the American people. To many of them the thought was repugnant. Many looked with grave concern on the entrance of the United States on a policy of expansion because they believed that it might bring them into political entanglements and possibly wars with which otherwise they had little concern. The administration at Washington, likewise, was gravely concerned with the new problem period that the Philippines must be taken away from Spain, President McKinley was certain. The question that brought him a great deal of worry was the problem of disposing the islands once taken away from Spain. His decision to take the Philippines “to develop, to civilize, to educate, to train in the science of self-government” is now a vivid memory but nevertheless real.en_US
