123.
3 lb., vol. i., p. 58.
372 American Occupation of Philippines thousand people, officially admitted to be still in insur- rection within less than two weeks after the announce- ment of the inauguration of a civil government, which included them, with its implied assertion of a state of peace as to them.
If to the three provinces above named you add the province of Samar, later of dark and bloody fame, you have a fourth province as to which not only had there been no "civil" government organ...- ized on paper, but no claim yet made by any one that we had ever conquered it. We had been so busy in Luzon and elsewhere that we had not yet had time to bother very much with Samar.
The area of Samar is 5276 square miles, and its population 266,237. (See the census tables already cited.) In their report dated October 15, 1901,^ you find the Commission admitting that "the insur- rection still continues in Batangas, Samar, Cebu" and "parts of" Laguna and Tayabas provinces.
Now the euphemistic limitation implied in the words "parts of" is quite negligible, for any serious pur- pose, since our troops kept the insurgents rather constantly on the move, and the population in all the "parts of" any province that was still hold- ing out backed up the combatants morally and materially, with information as to our move- ments, supplies, etc., whenever the insurgent de- tachments, in the course of their peregrinations, happened to pass through those "parts." So, to make a recapitulation presenting the political situa- tion admitted by the Commission to exist a little over three months after the inauguration of civil govern- ment, we have the insurrection still in progress as follows : ' War Department Report, 1901 , vol.
