IT was announced some time ago
that the terms of the members of
the state board OF examiners would
expire In May but the opinion held
by those who know is that they will
not be up until the end of their
terms in July. The law changed
since the appointment of the old
board and the beginning of the
term was made in May instead of
July. The old members however
expect to serve out the time as if
there had been no change in the
law.

at hand the making of an excellent harbor.
At the same. time, there is a second project
for line to run southeast from Tifiis, in
the Caucasus. to Erivan on the border of
Armenia and Persia, and thence to Tbriz,
Teheran and Ispahan, probably crossing at
right angles the line from Herat if Bushire
is chosen as its terminus. If these two
roads are built it will be possible for russia
quickly to disp,tch troops from both the
Black and Caspian seas. About one hun
dred miles north of Tiflis, with a practi
catIe mountain pass intervening, is a rail-
road line which has through connections
with Moscow and St. Petersburg. With this
gap closed the capital of Russia WILL ac
cording to present plans, be in direct rail
connection with the Indian ocean, thus
realizing a long-cherished ideal. 1t is sig
nificant that according to the Tageblatt
dispatch French capitalists are furnishing
the money for the construction of the

The Philippine commissions report is of
particular value in that portion which notes
that the inhabitants of the archipelago at
present utterly lack the essentials of ma
tionality. They form an aggregation of
tribes Of dissimilar habits and languages
without any unity of purpose or desire
Few of the islands present similar eco
nomic conditions. The natives have in
fact. never considered themselves as a
body. but have insisted upon preserving
their tribal differences. For Aguinaldo TO
assume therefore. to act and speak for the
Philippine people is the sheerest nonsense.
Not even in the indecisive revolts which
preceded the war between Spain and the
United States did the natives in arms as
sumo to act a unit for national inde
pendence. They were as assembled indi
viduals, seeking for a redress of certain
specified grievances. The fact that there
was unrest under Spains rule at various
points in the archipelago merely reflected
the general inadequacy OF Spains admin
istration. The practical conclusion which
the commission draws from this phenome
non Is that there is nothing to hold the FIJI
ipinos together in case they secure nominal
Independence. no spirit of nationality. no
common speech, no mutual confidence
while there Is everything to separate them
and cause them to fall to fighting among

No Promise to Aguinaldn

One of the favOrite tricks of the Agun-
aldo Aid Society has been to urge that IN
dependence be granted now to the F'ilipinos
because 1t was promised to Aguinaldo by
Admiral Dewey before the American power
was established at Manila. From various
sources have come repeated refutations Of
this yarn yet it has regularly reappeared
after season and perhaps has been be-
heved by some people Now comes the
Philippine commission with a report which
contains memorandum from Admiral
Dewey, one Of its members, denying in the
most explicit terms that he had any under
standing as to Independence with Aguinaldo
or that any promise was ever extended to
MIN. 1t having been represented to the
naval commander that the TagaI agitator
was IN a position to give assistance in the
campaign against Spain, word was sent 10
nave Aguinaldo hasten to Hong Kong To
see the commodore before he was com
PEELED under the neutrality laws to leave
port. Agulnalon was slow in responding
and missed the squadron. Later he was
allowed to go to Manila and was permitted
TO land and organize an army. which he
forthwith proceeded to use as means of
MS own ACKNOWLEDGMENT. This plain state
ment from the one best qualified to speak
on the subject ought to bury the fiction
forever out of sight

Persons Who Have No Flag.
ON the New York Tribure.

L
What deep and lasting contempt the
whole world feels for the man who has no
country and is loyal to no flag! Little
Americans need hereafter to be called un
Americans. Born participants in the grand
est government on earth, inheritorS of
share in the glOries of a flag second to
none. they prefer TO cast dishonor that
flag to aid the enemies of their government
and to go through life without a country
or a flag because their personal vanity is
not satisfied. What contempt they get and
ever will get from the loyal citizens of
every country they must realize if they
consider how English politicians would
now be regarded if they should rejoice in
the successes of the Beers.
Any American fit to have part in the
grand heritage of this people knows beyond
all possible doubt that their government
makes for u higher civilization everywhere,
for larger freedom and greater justice,
than any rule that is possible by Tagal in
surgents. He who knows this and yet
helps the insurgents and battles against
his government. because it has not soothed
his vanity by accepting his notions about
every detail, deserves to be, as he is in the
estimation of all loyal people of every race,
a man not tit to have country or a flag.
How many such voters are there? No
election returns can tell, because those who
are too ignorant to know why they are
voting for any ticket, and the slaves of
prejudice or habit who vote for a party
without caring what that vote means, can
not be rightly counted having any opin-
ION. But the millions who have enough of
conscience and of sense to stand by the
nation and the flag will not be found on the
side of the TagalOgs when the votes are
counted. There ought to be enough of
american states are ruled by American pa
triots.

Russian Railway Through Persia.

The Berlin Tageblatt prints a dispatch
from St Petersburg that the construction
of the projected Russian railway in Persia
: assured This is important news. If true.
The persistence with which Russia Is con-
srructiug railway lines into virgin territory
Is one of the marvels Of the time There is
a deep political motive behind her enter
prise. Of course. and Yet the commercial
and sociological value Of these projects
should not be uuderestimated. In the pres
ent case, for instance. Persia is at this time
absolutely without railway facilities saw
ing Two ridiculous little lines which respect
lively run from Teheran. the capital. to
Shah Abdul Aim. III the suburbs. about
ten miles away and from the little town OF
Mahmudabad. on the Caspian sea, to the
city Of AmoL of ten thousand inhabitants
about fifteen miles from the coast 1t is
easy To- foresee that the penetration of the
country by railway lines connecting with
the sea and with other lines will greatly
facilitate the development of commerce
and agriculture in this ancient region.
Russia. however, has her eyes on other re-
suits She wants quick independent mil
itary route TO the Indian ocean. Therefore
she plans two distinct railway lines
through Persia. one OF which is that men
toned in the dispatch from St Petersburg
This Is projected to run southwark from
the city Of Merv. in Turkestan which il
traversed at present by the great Trans
Caspian road constructed by the Russian
government. There is already an extension
from Merry two hundred and fifty miles
southwark 10 Kushk just over the bordar
Of Afghanistan. and according to recent
accounts. 1t is being quietly pushed on IN
Herat, the capital Of Afghanistan This of
itself Will give Russia control of the north
western part of that country. But it will
not suffice to afford outlet for Russian
troops 70 the shores of the Persian gulf and
the Indian ocean. so concessions have been
secured from the Persian government for
an extension from Herat in a southwest
direction The Tagebiatt dispatch states
that II IS as yet uncertain whether the ter
minus will be at Bushire or Bandar Abbas,
both of which are on the Persian gulf, the

A Filipino Peace Propositions.

1t is again asserted that the Filipinos
in revolt are to be represented at this
capital the coming winter by a peace
delegate" Is it possible that any individ-
ual bearing such commission will present
himself here and ask recognition by the
government? When the Modocs were in
the lava beds some years ago defying the
government, had they sent Shacknasty Jim,
or Steamboat Frank, or any other worthy
to Washington with terms of capitulation,
would he have been received? Is there any
difference between American Indians and
F'ilipinOs in revolt? American authority
covers both races. and when either one goes
on the warpath it is to be dealt with only
by force. The white flag is the only peace
commissioner the government will recog-
nize. A parley about any other terms but
unconditional surrender is out of the ques-
ton.
According 30 report the Filipino junta at
Hong Kong is as yet undecided to the
man for the mission. Senor Agoncillo who
was here last winter, and a Senor RegidOr,
now in London, are mentioned. A London
cable gives this information
''Senor Regidor says that whoever goes
to Washington will Stipulate that the Fill
ipinOs shall have complete internal indie
pendence. The Filipinos, he says. will not
tolerate any form of American government,
or any American official governor. If
they obtain autonomy they will welcome an
American representative and will agree to
an American proteCtorate, provided such a
protectorate only means the control of the
foreign relations of the Philippines"
The present is of all times the most inop-
perfume and unpropitious for talk like this
While England and the Transvaal are at
war as the result Of such a prOtectorate,
this Filipino proposes that the United
his people by which it is to be all powerful
IN keeping outsiders at distance, but
absolutely powerless in all matters relating
to the internal affairs of the islands The
archipelago will be developed and advanced
under the guidance of the white race and
yet 1t is to remain for the Filtpinos to pre-
scribe the terms upon which the white race
shall live there.
The United States will commit no such
blunder as that. 1t, and not the Fiipiuos
Will prescribe the terms upon which people,
white or brown. shall live in the islands
The local government must be so ordered
that intelligence and progress shall be
favored instead of being repressed, to the
end that immigration of a desirable kind
shall be invited. A close corporation
whether in South Africa or in the Philip
pines, is hardly the form of government
suited to this era.
