As tor q 5PrOtectorae.

H&pfug given the Filipinos stable

give them their absolute independence
and then protect them from the inter
ference Of other nations If it is our
duty to establish a stable form Of gov
ernment, it follows that it is our
| duty to sBe that such a form Of gov
ernment lis maintained, for without
It, We caEnot afford them adequate
protection against other nations, II
we assume a. protectorate over the
lsis1ands, foreign governments would
expect and require, and WOULD have
right to, expect and require that we
maintain a stable governments there.
A government that would project. the
life. property and commerce Of. for
eigngrs to the same extent as aanogg
1.-The civilized nations of the worfds. z.
Without such a. governments we
would, before t1Bg world, have no more
rightfto say in foreign nations, you
must keep out. Of the Philippines,
than we have too say to foreign na-

The Protectorate' Humbug.
If e~were to assume protectorate
over China it would be: our duty to see
that China accorded ample projections
to the lives, property and business of
foreigners. And recent events have.
demonstrated what a. task this would
be. Andi the Filipinus,. in all their
entirety, with their more than eighty
different tribes and their varied and !.
inferior degrees of ciVilization,z are far
less fitted for self-government than
the Chinese, who have maintained an
organized government for centuries.
| Aguinaldo and his chiefs represent
the most civilized and Intelligent ele-
ment of the native races, and yet we
know it was their purpose to burn,
sack and loot Manilaa and to slaughter
all foreigners in thee city. The indie
pendence the Filipinus-s would enjoy
under such leaders as" Kguinaldo and ;
his chiefs would be such independence
as the people of Haiti and Santo Do
mingo enjoy-brute lawlessness, part
ly restrained by brute force, and reyo-

i It is a singular fact remarked upon
by the inhabitants of Newspaper Of
fees that the .cockroaches, once SO nu-
merous in such places, have almost
disappeared. Time was when the little
brown pests fairly overrun the homes
of the press. Not NorIy did they exist
by thousands in the mposing-rooms,
but they also got down into the ed

say that the disappearance of: the
:cockroach began with the introduc-
ton Of typsetting: machines. This is
believed to be true. for In the big city
offices they have, become scarcer. and
scarcer ever since about 1883. Now
one is seldom seen there. Whether

JAPANESE FUNERAL POMP

To be buried with pomp and ceremony l is the lifelong ambition of a Japanese. The higher the rank the greater the dis play. When the empress dowager died in 1897 no less than s700000 was appro- priated from the national treasury. The ceremonies occupied several weeks. as
 they were conducted according to anci- ent usage. few days ago the funeral of lady of the higher class in Tokio was attended by vast concourse of people and with large expenditure of money. Large edifices were erected
 near the family vault for the mourners.
 The service was chanted by 30 Buddhist
 priests, and principal of whom pro- nounced warm and sympathic oration in memory of the deceased lady, whose noble character had won universal es- teem. Last week, while out in iinri- kisha, we saw a great concourse of people assembled in front of a silk store, and learned that one of the firm had died and this was his funeral. We 1ur- ried on and took position near bridge that led to the temple First in the pro-
 
 ics. These were followed by great number of Japanese in their silken robes, that set off their fine, intelligent faces. Then came the priests with their shaven heads, over which men carried large red Japanese parasols After these company of men with a queer head-coverng of straw. like an invert- ed bread basket, carrying in their hands sprlgs of paper lotus.

REVOLUTION IN RICE CULTURE.
An Opportunity for Southern Planters

An Opportunity for Southern Planters The main trouble with southern agri
 culture in conservatism, iron-bounG
 habit, ruts To get out of the ruts is | the first remedial consideration Learn how to produce something besides cot ton. Use labor-saving implements and employ new methods No single indus try will suffice but a multitude of mi nor ones. There is no excuse for im-
 porting food products, and yet we irn-
 port millions of dollars worth annually
 of so common and necessary articles as
 sugar and rice, which the south can pro-
 duce. The rice crop of last year is re-
 ported at 36990, 720 pounds, of which
 Louisiana produced TOT, ,792, ,000 pounds.
 and the imports were 204177,2 ,293 pounds
 Yet rice lands abound all over the south and upland rice can be grown on mill lions of acres. Yet 1t is more than two hundred years since rice was introduced
 During the war the colored rice-grow- CTS were driven away from the sea is- lands, and they never could be induced to return, and rice culture has dwindled to small proportions, no way having been found to- rehablitate the industry oliHeTly aDuuI all the rlCe grown was on the Atlantic coast, but within ten years Louisiana and Texas have extend ed cultivation till they produce three- fourths of all in the United States.
 And here must be unfoded a marvel ous tale of development, which is the grandest object-lesson recently given in southern agriculture, and which furnish es the key to her future agricultural progress crop diversification and gene- ral prosperity. It Is breaking the chains of conservatism overturning and burying old methods. introducing the very lateSt improvements in machinery, new inventions for specific uses, and making use of fertilizers and irrigation processes for rice culture.
 The theater of this transformation is found in the prairies of southwestern Louisiana and southeastern Texas. hitherto an unoccupied and apparently useless waSte-the most remote and hopeless-looking region for development | In the entire south

| impossible, if a new theory, and not an i accomplished fact, which has already i given fortunes to many enterprising promoters of this industrial revolution
 few farmers from the northwestern states settled on these prairies of south western Louisiana, and finding them suited to rice-growing began to adapt their machinery to the requirements of this industry The gang-plow, disc harrow, drill and broadcast seeder were soon adjusted, and the obstacles en- countered with the twine- binder were overcome in a year or two. Where lev el prairies were found with an interest ing creek, levees were thrown up around them by the use of a road grader and fields of forty to sixty acres were flooded. Few lateral ditches were required. The work was done by ma chinery, as on the bonanza wheat farms; great crops at little cost result ed, and fortunes were made. A success sion of dry years followed, and failure threatened, but these farmers were &C., customed to defy failure. Then pump- ing machines were employed, and sur face canals built to receive the water
 
 run on divides. not to cross streams, and to give flow to the irrigating waters. First commenced in 1890 in small way, now, in parishes Acadia Calca- sieu, Cameron and Vermilon, some four hundred miles of mains and eight hun dred of laterals have been built at a cost of $1500,000. In 1894 a canal forty | rect wide was built fifteen miles, with l ten miles of lateral Then the Crowley | canal, thirty-five feet wide, eight miles long, with ten miles of laterals.
