PROF. LADD,
Formerly a Hudson Col
lege Student,
Now One OF the Leading Instructors at Yale, Gives
Warning of the Nations Peril In Trying
to Hold the Philippines.

of cruelty in their warfare. Our troops
also have never been accustomed to
give strict obedience to the orders Of
their superiors, and the danger has
been accentuated on this account.
1--WE are now listening to complaints
against the cruelty Of the Russians in
China. In spite of the fact that the
Russian private soldier is much less
educated than our own, his training
in strict obedience to superiors secures
him against such excesses. When the
Russians take a town and their Off
GERS forbid them to loot it, the order
prevents the soldiers from doing so.
How has it been in the case of our
own troops? Both officers and men
have looted towns. A comparatively
recent example, from trustworthy
sources, is that of eighty persons who
were killed in a single Filipino village
to avenge a private quarrel in that
village.
''It would have been possible not to
have held the Philippines. / suppose
that the State department wanted to
pay Great Britain back for indirectly
assisting in the Cuban war. Great
Britain wanted no other nation to take
the Philippines, and so we were in
duced to take them. In three or four
years we have gone over to the policy
of backing up our strife for CONNER
cial supremacy with an army. That
lis what all the world is doing, but the
policy is disastrous and wicked. It is
directly contrary to the genius of this
nation. sa
"The Philippines can learn to gov
ern themselves just as we have learned
to govern ourselves. They are, for
that matter, better prepared than were
we few centuries ago. Just see what
the Japanese have done in the last
century in adapting themselves to mod
ern civilization. No troops in China
have behaved themselves more splen-
didly than have the Japanese. Yet ii
is but fifty years ago that they were
in the dark ages. There is probably
much the same blood among many
of the higher Filipinos that there is
| in the Japanese. We might have given
the Filipinos some such friendly as.
surance as we gave the Cubans. Peo'
pie are going to be deceived who think
that the end is coming quickly. The
chances are that the Filipinos will al
ways keep in rebellion till they either
have self-government or are extermin
ated.
"Thc question which is on trial in
this country is whether we are fit our
selves for lf-government. We don't
need to take any more government
jobs on our hands,

A New Haven, Conn.,, dispatch to
the New York Times ultra Republi-
cam announces that Prof. George T.
Ladd, head professor of the depart
ment Of philosophy and psychology
at Yale University, who has just re-
turned from trip around the world,
has become an ardent anti-imperialist
through his personal investigations in
to conditions in the Far East Prof.
Ladd spent about four months in ia
pan and the whole of one winter in
India, and came into contact with
many of the foremost educators and
statesmen of the Orient. He personal
ly looked into conditions in the East
and the prospects for American and
Western civilization, and has come
to the conclusion that America is
making a great mistake to enter the
Philippines as ruler and possessor.
Prof. Ladd's utterances are given
an added interest to Summit county
people by reason of the fact that he is
quite we'll known here. He graduated
from Western Reserve University,
Hudson, having been a member Of the
class of 1864. Judge E. w. Stuart,
chairman of the Summit County Re-
publican Executive committee, was
a member Of the class of '62, and Mr..
w. G. Parsons, Akrons' we'll known
manufacturer, was a member of the
class of '63.
For several years Prof. Ladd preach
ed at Edinburg, Portage county. Com
menting upon the Philippine question
he says:
"The attitude of the United States
in retaining the Philippines is en-
tirely unjustifiable. 1t was wrong from
the very beginning, from the moment
when the Commissioners of our gov
ernment forced Spain to sell us the
islands. 1t is impolitic, immoral, and
contrary to all our traditions. But
now that we are responsible for the
islands, the question has become a
difficult one to solve Holland has
had long experience with similar tribes
in Sumatra, and they are constantly
in rebellion. Even in India the Brit
ish, who are the most gifted people fol
governing colonies known since history
began, find the problem of governing
growing yearly more difficult.
'The history OF the world shows
that in every case where higher tribe
has tried to subjugate a lower one
the lower one pulls the other down
to it's level. This is seen in the history
of our own troops in the Philippines
In spite of the fact that our soldiers
went out there with good intentions
and from civilized communities, they

pleased to know that it is to be seen
at the Grand opera house Friday, Oct.
18th. The play has been rated by the
critics of the principal newspapers Of
America as one of the greatest of its
kind ever seen on this continent. 1t is
a play dealing with stage life, and
dramas of this character and of any
note are comparatively few in number.
"Dayid Garrick" has long been popu-
lar. "Trelawney of the Wells" is one
of the most recent successes of this
character. Plays within plays have
been fairly numerous since Shakes
peare wrote Hamlet and therein in
troduced the idea. Both. of these de-
vices were made use of by Alexander
Dumas in 'The Royal Box" and were
forcibly brought out by Mr.. Coghlan
with daring originality. The real au-
dience viii impersonate the supposed
audience of the play within the play.
The Prince of Wales and his friends
occupy one of the real boxes, which,
decorated with the Royal Coat Of
Arms, is supposed to be the Royal
Box at Drury Lane Theater, London,
1910. The Drury Lane manager comes
before the real curtain, and announces
that although the leading character Is

THE GREAT SECRET

OF womanS preservation of her beauty
lies in the intelligent care of the womanly
health. So close is the relation between
the health of the delicate womanly organs
and the health of the whole body, that
whenever the feminine functions are de-
ranged or disturbed the consequences are
felt by every nerve in the body. Severe
headache, backache, pain in the side, and
bearing down pains are borne with by so
many thousands of women that one who is
in sound health is rare exception. Most
women would give anything to knoaO how
to be cured. The way is very plain. Fol

million women who have been perfectly
cured of wo'nanly ills and weakness.
