Lawton,s Health Report.
rth American Review


1t cannot be too emphatically insisted
upon that the Philippines are. for all prac-
teal purposes, country of possibilities
rather than of any considerable present
value. The soil is for the most part of that
rich volcanic character which seems, in
conjunction with tropical heat and .ains, to
produce the richest vegetation of the most
valued kinds; the natives, while entirely UNI
civilized, and practically independent, which
really means without government of any
kind, are not as rule hard to deal with,
nor are they usually uEfriendly to strangers
or averse to Europeans; and the influence
of Christianity, so far as it has gone has
prepared the way for that intercourse with
superior races which lays the foundation of
civilization. On the other hand, it must not
be forgotten that the native races of these
islands have all the vices of their condition.
Less even than those of Luzon are they at
all inclined to exert themselves to do any
useful work. At present they Rave no idea
either of self-government of permitting
anyone else to govern them. Accustomed to
the domestic tyranny of their chiefs as
their normal condition, and to small tribal
wars as their common employment, they
present by no means a very hopeful field
for the operations which are to develop
their resources or to elevate their condition.
