even the Kansas City convention felt
that they. had to propose some policy.
What they propose Is that we should
first rive them q stable form Of govern
ment; second, independence, and third,
protection from outside interference. BY
the order in which they put these propo-
sitions they showed their estimate of
their importance. Well, what we are do
ing now is precisely and exactly to try to
securefA stable form Of government IN
the Philippines. and the chief obstacle
in our way is the support given to the
bloody Aguinaldian oligarchy by their
sympathizers among the people that were
represented in the Kansas City conven-
ton. Moreover, now we are seeing that
no outside nation interferes in the island.
After We have secured q stable govern
ment We then intend to give them self
government as rapidly as they are fitted
fot 1t. Our opponents say that they wish
now togive them independence. To give
independents" now would be precisely
like giving independence" to the widest

mean the turning over Of the most peace

The Goodwin oxen were out again. To
,ne unacquainted with the fractious
b4asts the statement may lack interest,
ort there was not a soul in South Hama
ford who would not have been keenly
alive to the possibilities consequent on
tbeir getting out. For when the Good
min cattle broke bounds nothing was
safe. No precincts were zoo sacred for
them to enter, nor was there anything
green that was not esteemed of their
palates. The Rev. Sigourney Hardwicke
had seen a whole cabbage patch disap-
near. down their huge threats while he

and that was not a tenth of the unusual

No fence out of barbed wire could re-
sst their seductive horns, and as George
Goodwin did not believe in wire fences,
the two oxen used their spare time in
finding out new ways to escape from the
fve-acre lot in which they were con-
fined and where the pasturage was sweet
and the water abundant. A love for mis-
chief is not generally set down among
an oX's characteristics, but the Goodwin

pot and hurled them at the wicked pair
and both were hit on the head. And then
the race began. With tossing horns they
tore southwark down the road. He re-
covered his treasured feather buster and
sprinted after them, his drapery stream
ing in the wind, his red slippers slapping
his heels rhythmically with each
stride and the feather buster gyrating
in the air like a drum majors
baton. Once he fell and marred the
snowy whiteness of his toga, but jump
and shake and a plunge forward with
lowered head and he had regained the
space he had lost by falling. And once
more the feathered dart hurtled through
the air in a manner suggestive of bull
fights, although 1t fell short of its mark.
He had not thought that oxen could be
so fleet, but their feetness would but
serve to put lengthy distance between
them and his grounds. He would chase
them TO Canton if need be, but they
should not again disturb his nocturnal
musings or cry havoc and let slip the
dogs of war in his garden.
AS they crossed TibbalIs bridge he
dropped a slipper. He picked it up to
hurl at the oxen, but true to its name it
