somewhat different effects as to time and classes

higher industrial activity and a greater degree

that it does not fix artificial prices nor advance
them except as a result Of greater general pros

pervaded with a spirit of soberness and truth.
And the fact that he Is accredited by THE

any suspicion of prejudice against the Filipino
leaders or of partaty toward ''imperalstic"
designs or criminal aggression"
The picture which this correspondent draws
Of the washington of the Philippines and
his associates Is not an engaging one He tells
US that the Fiipinos, as a rule, are almost in

1t is customary to regard the North American
Indian as in process of extinction. but when the
subject is examined 1t is found that he holds
his own. and shows with each census enumera-
ton a healthy rate Of increase. 1t is expected
that in the coming one he will score a record Of
a quarter of million. taking in all the tribes
receiving Government support. and his numbers
may reach three hundred thousand. l. New
York the remnant OF the Six Nations exceeds ten
thousand; at the West the Choctaws number
over fifteen thousand, and The Creeks are not
behind them, while the Cherokees. the most
civilized OF all, are the most numerous, showing
census returns OF more than thirty thousand
In general the tribes. instead OF diminishing,
exhibit a rate Of increase not differing ma
terially from that OF the white population
around them. The Indian thus survives the
buffalo. which was a chief element In his sup
port for unknown ages. and bids fair to wander
down the aisles OF time as long as Uncle Sam
is willing to support him. Ethnologically. in
dustray and morally he is. with few excep-
tions Just about where he was. and the rational
expectation is that he will stay there.
