General Otis Pays Tribute to Island

Washington, D. c., June 12.-GeneraI
E. S. Otis, in an interview, praises the
Filipinos. He declared that they were
without question the best of any of the
Asiatic races living on the Pacific coast
Islands. He paid high tribute to their
acquisitiveness, saying that young and
old were alike anxious to learn from
the Americans. and quick to do so, if
given an opportunity.
When Spanish American school books
were scarce. the Filipinos begged for
American school books, and declared
that their children could learn from

case, and says that in the course of a

Even the old natives con the text books

their minds.
General Otis said he looked upon this
educational movement as the only So

was confident that the spread Of Am

schools would in the end make good
citizens of the EilipinOs.

Henry Miller, whose engagement

staunch admirer OF Utah scenery and

nounces Campbell.
Butte. Mont, June 1.-THE Demo-
Gratis who left the Silver Bow county
convention yesterday and organized a
convention of their own, today named
a full delegation to represent this
county in the state convention Sen
ator William A. Clark heads the dele
cation.
The resolutions set forth that the or
ganization of a convention was neces-
STATED by the tactics of the faction in
control of the party machinery and
the refusal of the convention of yes
terday to accord the other side my
voice in the proceedings. The audi
torium convention is denounced and its
action repudiated; the methods of
those controlling it condemned, and
the following plank is on the senC -
torial question:
1--WE cordially and heartily endorse
the actions IF the Hon. William A.
Clark, senator of the United States
from the state of Montana, in his
endeaVors to prevent the iebasement
of the ballot in this state. That we
regard with pride the record he has
made since his election to the senate;
and we condemn the action of those
who, for the qualification of personal
spite, and contrary to the wish of the
Democrats of this county and of the
people Of this state generally, have at
tempted without success to bring him
and the Democrats of Silver Bow
county and state of Montana into dis
reDute."
The platform favors election Of SEN
ators by the peoples direct vote.
Congressman Campbell's course in
congress and in the senatorial inVesti-
CATION is bitterly denounced. Camp
bell is a delegate to the state conven-
ton on the auditorium ticket.

EVENT FOR LUMBERMEN.
Utah and Montana Dealers to be
Taken Into the Hoo Hoos.


Taken Into the Hoo Hoos.
Seth Morrison of the firm of Morri-
son, Merrill & Co, is in receipt of
letter from Secretary r. w. Stewart
of the Colorado, New Mexico & Wyo-
ming Lumber Dealers association,
whose headquarters are at Denver. 1t
is not unusual for Mr.. Morrison to re-
ceive such letters, but in this particu-
lar missive there is something that
ought to interest the people Of Salt
Lake.
Mr.. Stewart says there is talk Of an
excursion to Salt Lake after the con-
vention of the association, which is at
Denver on July 8, and as there are $50
members, all good, jolly fellows, they
will certainly make things hum in Zion
if the excursion is worked up. The
idea is to get as large a number of
lumber dealers as possible to join the
Hoo HOOs, an order composed entirely
of lumbermen, and the initiation cere-
monies are to take place here, a big
barbecue to be included.
In talking with a Montana dealer
last night, Mr.. Morrison learned that
there are a great many lumbermen up
there who are willing to come down
and be initiated, and the probabilities
are that the big event will come off
here about the 18th Of July.
