The Tagals lumber about 10000 o people.
The map shows that their domain comprises all
the central parts OF Luzon. on which Manila
stands. and they have been slowly encroachinR
upon the other populations OF the island. They
have also gained the upper hand In the neigh
boring islands OF Mindoro and Martinique.
They are met everywhere along the seaboard
OF these islands. Most OF the native population
OF Manila is Tagal. and the most civilized
factor among the islanders is the Tagal people.
Thu Visayas. however. are still more numer-
Gus. comprising about 2.5OO.0OO people. and
they occupy a larger area of the islands. They
have given their name to the central group OF
islands. and Ilollo and Cebu. the two largest
ports after Manila. are in their territory. They
have also occupied the northeastern part OF the
great southern island OF Mindanao. The mis-
slonary work OF the Spanish clergy has been
chiefly among these two peoples. and as they
have come into relations with the foreign trad
ers and the enterprising Chinese. who are a
large factor In the business. particularly Of
Luzon. they have made far greater advance in
civilization than the other half OF the natives.
