ley. arrived 10 the city Friday morn
ing on the lookout for tramp, who,
his said, had broken into their residencs
and stolen about S240 belonging Il
Miss Coakley. Soon after the robbery
was discovered, Mr. Giles armed him
self and boarded southbound ireigh
train. At Monroe he saw the tramp
walking along the track, and LEAVING
the train, walked up to him and at tn
point of a pistol demanded the return Of
the money. After some parleying, the
stranger handed over to Mr.. Giles $40,
and as Mr.. Giles was placing it in h;s
pocket, the tramp struck him a heavy
blow, knocked him down end began
cutting at him with knife. Fortu-
nately, Mr.. Giles was not wounded, al
though his clothing was cut IN several
places, and the front of his shirt had a
number of gashes il it. In the strug-
gle, the pistol was discharged, and this
so alarmed the thief that he beat 6
hasty retreat.-[LyDchburg Advance.

THE PHILIPPINES.

The question as to the Philippines Is
not one Of annexation. We cannot an
mex them If we would. They are not
equal to the right of suffrage. II they
are in any way attached to the United
States after the period Of military gov
ernment to restore order 1t must be as a
dependency, without right Of represen-
tatiOn at Washington and with only a
partial voice as to the government Of
their affairs
1t may seem inconsistent for nation
that is moving toward democracy to
take any stand OF this sort. II such a
thing is done it will be by accepting the
idea Of standardization, lifting an in
ferior people to higher plane, This Is
not inconsistent. A nation that is able
to look after itself is surely able to lift
others up.
But this necessarily requires that we
should straighten up bit-that is, If we
are going to be an older brother to the
Filipino-and advance toward democ-
racy more rapidly than we should have
done had we not had this Spanish dis
turbance. This means that we must not
make our Indian policy a precedent we
must give up the spoils system and send
men to rule on merit; lin short, We must
ft ourselves for the responsibility.
Otherwise we shall go the way Of the
unfit
This situation means that the Repub-
lican party will be obliged to abandon
several important features of its past
policy or it will be thrown out Of power
with a thud. President McKinley's
threatened attack on civil service does
not seem to indicate that he realizes this
fact.

Planting Timber.

Thomas H. Douglas, the veteran forest
tree planter Of Waukegan, Ill, gives the
following graphic description Of his ex-
perience In planting trees for timber and
shelter:
A number Of years ago we planted a
section Of land for a railroad company
in Kansas. About the center Of the Sec
tiOn they had planted few acres to
black walnut and Usage orange four by
four feet apart. Two years after plant
ing the latter 1t would have been impOs-
sible to cultivate them with horse un-
less he wore leather leggins. They have
no dude" horses out there, so they had
to go uncultivatetd. When they were
four feet high the branches met, making
through, but they did make safe har-
bor for rabbits, which would come out
In the night and girdle the more valuable
trees in the vicinity. / shot over forty
with o shotgun in the Usage plantation
one morning. BY getting down close to
the ground, between the rows, one could
see under the arching branches for at
least fifteen rods. In the afternoon l
took rife and killed over twenty that
