NATIVES NOT SEL F. -GOTERNING

The United States Philippine COM
mission is hearing the leading resi-
dents Of various natio nalities, priests
and Spaniards, on the subject of the
future of the islands. The questions
put to all are: Do you believe the ma
tives are capable of self government
in the townships? Do you believe the
natives are capable of govern
ment in the provinces? Do you believe
the natives are capable of self gov
ernment in the archipelago?
All those who have been intorroga-
ted, including natives who sympathize
etically with independence, have
replied to the third question, with re-
markable unanimity, in the negative.
Independence, they say, would result
in chaos, endless tribal wars and Eu-
ropean Intervention. A few of them
think the provincial government
is practicable, but most of them favor
government in townships, with a
form of American supervision pro-
tecting the Inhabitants against the
populations and extortions which their
experience with the Spaniards regime
has led them to consider the natural
perquisits of officialdom.
The commercial classes urge the
sending of detachments of American
troops, each numbering about one
hundred men, to take possession of
towns in the southern provinces and
in the Visayas island, now held by
small bands of Tagalogs. They de-
clare the natives find the Tagalog op-
preston worse than Spanish oppres
sion, and that they will welcome the
Americans. The case of the inhabi-
tants of Gubat, in the province of Sor-
segon, is cited as a typical instance.
The Spanish taxes amounted to $18,-
600, but the rebel Tagalogs, extorted
$112, 1000 from the people of Gubat.
Aguinaldo's brother lin law, the pro-
vincial governor, is said to be despoil
ing the people numerically.

STEPHEN j. FIELD.
tiVes.' )

| In the death of Justice Field the
country has lost one who through his
! long service as member of the Su-
preme Court won the confidence of
those whom he associated and of the
masses of people throughout the coun
try. Mr.. Field was an able and fearless
justice and his opinions were render
ed in clear and concise manner. The
following is a brief sketch of lis life.
Stephen Field was born in Haddam,
Conn.,, Nov. Il, 1916. Before he was
three years old his father moved to
! Stockbridge, Mass. At the age of 10
| the future United States Justice ac
companied married sister, mis-
sionary, to Smyrna, to familiarize
himself with the oriental languages.
On returning he entered Williams Col
lege, graduating in 1887 at the head of
his class. Subsequently he settled in
New York city and begun the study
of law in his brother David's office.
| After his admission to the bar he was
admitted as a partner in the firm,
which connection he severed in 1848,
spending year in European travel.
In November, 1849, he went to San
Francisco, where he began the prac-
tice of his profession. A few weeks
later he was among those who found
ed Marysville, becoming it's first al
calde, ,sand continuing as such until
the organization of the judiciary un-
der the constitution of the state. He
was elected to the first legislature
held after the admission of California
to the Union.
In 1857 he was elected judge of the
supreme court of California for a
term of six years, continuing in Office
nntil his appointment to the supreme
bench of the United States by Presi-
dent Lincoln in 1868.
During his tenure of this Office his
career was notable. Among the con-
spicuous decisions in which he was
concerned was the famous test oath
case, in which he gave the casting
vote, and wrote the opinion of the
court annulling the validity of the
e'ironclad" oath. His dissenting opin-
ions in the legal tender cases, the con-
fiscation cases, and in the New Or
leans slaughter house case have also
attracted national notice.
In 1864 Judge Field received the de-
gree of LII. d. from Williams College.
and in 1869 he was appointed profess
sor of law in the University of Cali
fornia. In 1873 he was chosen by the
Governor of California one of the
commission to examine the code of
laws of that state, and to prepare

amendments to the same for legis1a-
tive action. He was also member
of the electoral commission in 1876,
and voted with the Democratic mi
nority. In the Democratic national
convention in 1880, Judge Field was a
candidate for the nomination for the
Presidency of the United States, and
received IS votes on the first ballot.
His retirement from the supreme
court in 1897, after continuous SER
vice of 35 years, marked the termina-
ton of the longest term of office ever
held by Justice of the United States
Supreme Court.

ships and cruisers, thereby putting an
absolute stop to the building of any
new fighting ships for the navy.
eff, duridg the years to come, any
disaster should befall onr arms, af1oat
or ashore, and thereby any shame
come to the United States, ,eremember
that the blame will lie upon the men
whose names appear upon the roll
calls of congress on the wrong side of
these great questions. On them will
lie the burden of any loss to our SOL
diers and sailors, of any dishonor to
the flag; and upon you and the peo-
pie of this country will lie the blame
if you do not repudiate, in no unmis-
taxable way, what these men have
done. The blame will not rest upon
the unframed commander of untried
troops; upon the civil officers of a de-
partment the organization of which
has been left utterly inadequate; or
upon the Admiral, with insufficient
number of ships; but upon the public
men who have SO lamentably failed in
fore thought as to refuse to remedy
these evils long in advance, and upon
the nation that stands behind these
public men.
$50 at the present hour no small
share of the responsibility for the
bloodshed in the Philippines, the blood
of our brothers and the blood of their
wild and ignorant foes, lies at the
thresholds of those who SO long de-
layed the adoption of the treaty of
peace, and of those who, by their
worse than foolish words deliberately
invited a savage people to plunge into
war fraught with sure disaster for
them; war, too, in which our own
brave men who follow the flag must
pay with their bood for the silly,
mocking humanitarianism of the pratt
tiers who sit at home in peace.
'EIn the West Indies and the Philip
pines alike we are confronted by
most difficult problems. 1t is cow
ardly to shrink from solving them in
the proper way; for solved they must
be, if not by US, then by some stronger
and more manful race; if we are too
weak, too selfish or too foolish to
solve them some bolder and abler
people must undertake the solution.
Personally, [ am far too firm be-
lever in the greatness Of my country
and the power of my countrymen to
admit for one moment that we shall
ever be driven to the ignoble alterna-
tives."

Prince Albert undertook the study of
animal life at the bottom of the sea, and
through his researches in this direction
he has become an authority without
peer. His scientific bureau in Paris con-
tains his manuscripts, his printed
works and his specimens without num-
Der, all of them resulting from his tire
less, energetic execution of the work
which he undertook as mere pastime
nearly Is years ago. He has photo
graphed the bottom of the sea, he has
analysed sea water taken from all
depths, and he has preserved all kinds
of specimens of animal life taken from
the varying depths at which he has
worked. He has invented apparatus
without which the work of other in
vestigators would be greatly hindered.
Principal among these are sounding
| machine and an instrument for study
ing the density of water.''
Everything that this unusual young
specimen of royalty does, from the
building of French country seat to a
study in research, is done in very
royal fashion, and the fact that he is
dependent upon the quips and cranks
of Dame Fortune, whose tickle touch
| makes or mars thousands of lives in the
palatial gaming rooms of Monte Carlo,
goes to prove that no matter how false
she be to the eager fortune seekers she
is faithful to the prince in his rock
bound home on the Mediterranean.

Senator j. B. Foraker served. Mr..
johnson was born in Clermont county,

private with his regiment in Kentucky,
West Virginia and Tennessee, and in
1864 took part with it in the march from
Atlanta to the sea and from Savannah
back toward Washington as far as
Goldsboro, N. c., where in March, 1865,
he was ordered to report to Lieut.. Col.
Putnam, commanding the Forty-sec-

troops, for assignment as second lieu
tenant. His commission as such was
dated May 10, 1865, and he served in
that capacity until he was mustered
out, January 81, 1866. Mr.. johnson has
long been identified with G.. A. R. work
and has been commander of his post, be-
sides holding staff positions in the state
department. During the national en-
campment held in Cincinnati last year
Capt. johnson, as he is generally
styled, earned the thanks of thousands
of comrades by his intelligent thought
fulness in providing for the comfort of
visitors. He served as chairman of the
committee on public comforts. At that
encampment he was unanimously
elected vice commander in chief. In
business he is hardware merchant.
He holds membership in the COM

Nor does even this comparison do the

65 feet in height. Each of them will

NeErnea In Porto Rico.

DR.. H. X. Carroll, of Plainfield, N. j.,
the presidents special commissioner to
examine into the political and social
conditions in Porto Rico, was much i'm
pressed by the high character of the
negro population there. The most ca
pable builders, carpenters, bricklayers,
masons, printers, plumbers and arti-
sans generally are negroes, he said.
They mingle with the white workmen
on terms of perfect equality, and, so far
as DR.. Carroll could find, there is no
color line. When he held public hear
ings in the different towns on the is
land to get at public sentiment, repre-
sentatiyes of the artisans. guilds or
gremios came before him. More than
half of the delegates selected by the
gremios to meet him were negroes. he
found them, he says, practical and
hard-headed thinkers.

THE HOUSE CHAPLAIN
Rev. Henry N. Couden and His Stir
ring Public Career.
Lost His Sight While Serving as a
Defender of the UniOn-Aftervvard
Studied for the Ministry and
Won Success.

Five or six years ago the relations be-
tween England and the United States
were strained over the Venezuelan af-
fair, and it seemed as if only a spark
were needed to ignite the flames of war.
But the country was slow to understand
the humiliation of the diplomatic de-
feat that England was preparing for US,
and congress was pretending not to see
how far England was going in her ag-
gressions.
One morning DR.. Couden entered the
chamber just on the stroke of the clock
and was taken to his station below the
desk of the speaker. He was nervous,
for he had not been long in the house,
and he was not quite certain of his
ground. But he began with apparent
confidence, and, speaking distinctly,
prayed long and earnestly for peace be-
tween the two nations.
He prayed for Gods blessing upon
the congress and the speaker of the
house of representatives. Then, as he
neared the end of the prayer, he raised
his voice so that it could be heard in
every corner of the vast hall.
Heavenly Father" he said, ''let
peace reign throughout our borders,
yet may we be quick to resent an insult
to this our nation!''
To-day DR.. Couden's home life, says
the Philadelphia Saturday Evening
Post, is as full of quiet and sweetness
as his younger days were of hardship
and vicissitude.
His reading is done by Mrs. Couden
who keeps him in touch with the doings
of the world, and reads aloud the books
which he uses in preparing his sermons
and other writings. She is his lost
sense regained.
At the outbreak of the civil war DR.
Couden was boy of II, overfowing
with life and spirits, and ardent in his
patriotism. So, when President Lin.

ALBERT OF MONACO.
His Highness Rides a Strange Blu,
Harmless hobby.
Delights In Studying the Currents of
the Ocean and the Speed Of Their
Flow Has Invented Sew
eral Instruments.

Whether it was the fascinating novels
of Jules Verne that imbued H. r. FL.
the prince of Monaco with desire to
study the wonders of the deep or the
fact that the home of his fathers is
perched upon a rock overhanging the
great blue pulsing Mediterranean and
the constant sweep of it's winds and the
tapping of it's waves have made him
child of the sea, we are not told. But
some of the princes experiences in the
study of ''Oceanography," several pic
lures of his unique little kingdom, of
his yacht, Princess Alice" in which he
takes his trips, and of himself, appear
in the Metropolitan Magazine and pre-
sent a very readable and interesting
little sketch of the 'royal scientist"
Prince Albert began his scientific
studies in humble way, but poorly
equipped. He explored the Atlantic as
far as the coast of Newfoundland in a
little sailing schooner, the Hirondelle,
accompanied by ii men who constituted
the crew and helped him in his work.
The wonderful revelations of old Nep-

tend his explorations in more scien-
tific and elaborate way. The result was
the construction of steam vessel of
1,4oo tons, the "Princess Alice" perfect
ly fitted out. The writer says:
"Prince Albert's first study of the
ocean was confined to the currents Of
the Atlantic, and he made maps follow
ing the lines of his experiments which
are to-day consulted as authorities by
seamen and scientists alike. Beyond
discovering the currents themselves
and separating them, Prince Albert also
settled, as nearly as possible, the speed
Of the flow of these currents, and his
figures thereon are still authoritative
1t was after he had pursued his study
of currents as far as possible that
