TOO MUCH RED TAPE.
In short, an inadequate system, poor
facilities, red tape, necessary observance
or army rules and resultant lack of con-
s1deraton of commercial needs and gen.
erai mismanagement of the port have
brought about these increased freight rates

know they are working hard and doing all
they can to help matters and that they
must obey superior orders and observe reg
ularions. The incompetence and mismange-
ment are seen when il is realized that we
nave been here two years and have vet done
SO little TO improve conditions along the
water 'front.'. And the fact that for t1No
years We have been collecting a high Span-
ism tax on all goods entering Manila to
be devoted to improving harbor facilities
and have done practically nothing with the
very large sum of money thus derived. does
not add TO the content of the taxpaying

II sufncient to say in this respect that the
duties on all imports into Manila are COM

sAMoANs FOR SOLDIERS.
Commander Tilley Asks Permission to
Enlist About Eighty.

WASHINGTON, July 6.-The Navy
Department has received a report from
Commander Tilley, the naval governor
of the Samoan Island of Tutula, show
ing the satisfactory working of the new
government established there by the
navy. The natives appear to be per-
fectly satisfied. and Commander Tilley
is making many small improvements in
the conditions, giving special attention
to the lighting and marking of harbor
approaches. He has asked permission
of the Navy Department to enlist as
landsmen in the United States navy
eighty of the natives of Tutuila, whom
he proposes to organize into a military
police corresponding to the United
States Marine Corps. The commander
says the natives are fine, stalwart fell
lows, and would make excellent police
men.
A report has also been received from
Captain Leary, naval governor of the
Island of Guam, filled with details of
the administration of the island affairs
and embOdying copies of several for
midable proclamations which the ener-
getic naval officer issues from time to
time to correct the faults of the natives
and bring about administrative reforms.
1t is belived at the Navy Department
that Captain Leary has already been
relieved of his command as governor
of Guam, as Commander Seaton Schroe-
der, who was ordered to relieve him, is
about due at Guam.

is IT RIGHT

From Sylvan Valley News, Brevard
N. c.
1t may be a question whether the
editor of newspaper has the right 10
publicly recommend any of the various
proprietary medicines which flood the
market, yet as a preventive of suffering
we feel it a duty TO say a good word
for Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy. We have known
and used this medicine in our family
for twenty years, and have always
found it reliable. In many cases a dose
of this remedy would save hours Of suf-
fering, while a physician is awaited.
We do not believe in depending i'm
plicitly on any medicine for a cure, but
we do believe that If bottle of Cham
berlain's Diarrhoea Remedy were kept
on hand and administered at the incep-
tion Of an attack much suffering might
be avoided, and in many cases the
presence Of a physician would not hn
required. At least this has been rul'
experience during the past twea'v
years. For sale by all dealers ~

BONDING THE COMPANIES
BIG SOUNDING SCHEME MEANS
NOTHING.
Oceanic and Pacific Mail Steamships
Affeotcd-Duties Collected Here
Foreign Ships Sun Barred.

The statement of yesterday that the
Oceanic and Pacific Mail Steamship
companies had been bonded to carry app
praised goods between Honolulu and
san Francisco means very little when
fully diagnosed
The new rule applies only to goods
imported from abroad, through the
Mainland States to Hawaii: and the
advantage is that in place of the inn
porter paying the duty i'm New York he
Will pay it here. For instance, a pack
age of silks from Paris would come to
New York, where the duty would be
assessed it would then be turned over
to bonded railroad which would de-
liver 1t tu one of the two new bonded
steamship companies; the package
would then be delivered to Collector
Stacklble. who would receive the
amount due.
If this arrangement were not made
the importers would have to send the
amount of duty on European goods
coming through the States to New
York.
on the Mainland nearly all the rail
roads are bonded this way. For in
stance, at Denver, which is not a sea-
port city, the duties assessed at New
York or San Francisco, as the case
may be, are collected by the bonded
railroad companies and turned over to
the Government. All inland duties on
foreign importations are collected in
this way. Here, where most foreign
importations are by sea, the rule is of
little advantage, and the privilege will
hardly ever be awaited of.
On the streets it was assumed that
foreign vessels, British and japanese
for instance, would be permitted to
bring these appraised goods under the
bonds of the company. Such is not the
case. The rule does not alter the iron
clad law that coasting trade must be
carried on in American bottoms, and
under the Stars and Stripes.

To Parents of Children in the
 Public School.

The success of your child de pends very much in his prompt ness and regularity at school. Nothing but the very most serious and unavoidable cause should ever make the pupil tardy or absent. Those who have observed these matters know that pupil often tardy or absent soon loses interest in his work and does no good. Ii you cannot spare the pupil from home to be i'll school on time and al- most every day, you had just as we'll let-him quit school. So important is this matter that all good schools have very strict rules concerning it. The Conway board have a good rule and it is most reason able one. Pupils who are tardy or absent must bring written ex- cuses, signed by parents only, giv- ing cause of tardiness or absence. Five cases unexcused in any con- secutive twenty days suspends the pupil for twenty days" The school owes to every patron good faithful work. Every patron owes to the school hearty cooperation. Nothing but such cooperation can ever give the best results. One careless remark, in criticism of a teacher, made in the hearing of a pupil may cause that pupil to lose interest for a whole year. Parents should sympathize with and ell courage their children. There is no easy road up the hill of learn ing at best.
 Respectfully,
 D. l.. PAISLEY.

Conway should be elated over the splendid showing she makes i'll the last census. By some 1t was hoped that the official figures would give Conway 2,5oo and thus entitle her to be a city of the sec ond class. To these the census may be somewhat disappointing, but on the whole it is very encour- aging. It shows that we have the largest town on this road between its terminal points, Little Rock and Van Buren, and we have known for some time that we had the best town.

His Noble Record.


 Mai. Mckinley is man with a record. It is too long and too va ried to recount ill single article, but few salient points may be re- called with profit.
 He has made war without legal authority on our allies, the non slave holding Christian monoga-
 nists of Luzon. 1 He has recognized slavery and polygamy in the Sulus. He bought peace from the Mo- hamedan barbarian slave-holding polygamist despot and is paying him and his retainers large subs . dies for the maintenance of their harems.
 He has said in an interview that he could deny the right of suffrage, of trial by jury, of the writ of hebeas corpus, the right to bear arms, the right of representation and all other rights to the inhabi- tants of "our new possessions, {" while imposing upon them arb tra- " taxes.
 l He declared ill a message to con- gress that forcible annexation un- der our code of morals would be ciim nal aggression. He then en- gagged in forcihle annexation. He told congress that 1t was our plain duty" to give Porto K co 1 free trade, Immediately thereafter he exert ed all the power of his aaninist1a- ton to compel congress to impose tariff upon Porto Rican comss merce both ways. Mir. Gxnard of the Sugar Trust had seen him F.
 later.
 He paid Spain $eo, 1000, 900 for a title she had lost and secured an insurrection in which Spain had been whipped.
 He has since spent more than $2oo, 900 ,ooo in trying to get what Spain is supposed to have agreed to deliver. And now he is asking the peo- pie of the United States. to ratify his illegal and immoral acts and to give him chance to complete his schemes of imperial conquest and exploitation.
