A Washington special TO the local Demo-
cratic organ says that the general pol
icy which will be pursued by the Demo-
Gratis In Congress is now In the forma-
tive stage" This would seem TO imply
that it has heretofore been without form
and void II one may judge from the pro-
topiasm as outlined in the recent Demo-
cratic caucus the result after it has passed
through the formative stage will be a
chronic intestinal disturbance with Bryan
ism and Crokerism fighting for mastery.
But IL is hardly worth while specializing
about the future OF a party that never
gets beyond the formative stage and is
always in the process OF transition.

Manager Watts said yesterday that an effort would be made to have these two professional teams stop over in Arizona on their way east. If they could secure couple of games in each Phoenix, Tucson and Bisbee, it would be an object for them to do some ex- hibition work at least, and with Jones and Hartwell and the other good play CTS here it might be possible to afford the 'big guns" at least a little vio- lent exercise.

Andrew Jackson,s Wife.

In his "Recollections Of Lifetime" ("
General Roeliff Brinkerhoff gives de-
lightful picture of the wife Of Andrew
Jackson. Il have often wondered" he
says "what it was in this diffident,
retiring, uncultured woman which so
won all hearts that came within the
sphere of her influence"
"When l went to the Hermitage" /"
continues General Brinkerhoff, "Mrs.
Jackson had been dead for nearly
twenty years; yet the aroma Of her
presence filled the air and penetrated
every nook and corner of the neighbor-
hood. She dominated the volcanic ma
ture Of her fiery husband as the sun
dominates the humid vapors of the
morning.
There never was a moment in Jack
sons married life but he would have
died for her upon the rack or ut the
stake. Even in death her influence
ceased not, and at the White House
her memory with Jackson was more
powerful than congress, cabinet or
kings. 1t controlled his passions; it
curbed his tongue; it held him true to
his convictions Of right and duty.
''In public and private life, in the
White House and at the Hermitage,
down to the day Of his death, Jack
son never retired to rest without TAX
ing from his bosom the miniature por-
trait Of his wife and placed it in such
Il position, propped up against his Bi-
bic, that it should he the last thing

dreams and the first to greet him with

scription, written by her husband:
"'Herc lie the remains of Mrs. Ra-

1928, aged sixty-one. Her face was
fair, her person pleasing, her temper
amiable. her heart kind; she delighted
in relieving the wants of her fellow
creatures, and cultivated that divine
pleasure by the most liberal and I'M

mary instruction must be brought up
in contact with the Filipinos them
selves. This is especially important
for those charged with elementary
teaching, but should be extended as
far as possible to include also the high
er. education.
Fourth. University studies and the
collegiate courses should be open to
every one The standard required for
continuance at the universities and the
colleges should be high and the exam
nations should be rigorous.
''Fifth. No department of knowl-
edge, however lofty, sublime, or abs
tract it may be, should be considered
as above the native Filipinos. The
mere question of race must not be al
lowed to decrease the opportunity the
native may have for education since
experience shows that aptitude for the
very highest studies is not lacking at
least among chosen members of the
race
"sixth. 1t is of the greatest i'm
portance to arouse and develop special
attention in agriculture and in the
manual arts, and to encourage the ac-
QUESTION Of the technical knowledge
necessary for the advance and i'm
provement of these methods of gaining
a livelihood. Agricultural and techni-
cal schools should be established at
various well-chosen points of the ar.
chipelago and model workshops, espe-
cially for the carving and engraving
arts, should be fitted up. If technical
instruction can be obtained without
much expense, there is no doubt that
the Filipino will take advantage of it
and that the result will very soon be
perceived"
The Irish standard., 1901-04-20

tlllplnoS best by personal contact have
come to a conclusion in their regard
very similar to that which it has taken
our people nearly forty years to work
out. AS the result of their study of
the Philippine character, the Jesuits
insist that for education of the people
of the archipelago two things especial
ly are needed: First. general clemen-
tary education: second, special tech
nical training In this chapter on eth
nology, they say:
speaking in general, it is conceded
that the Filipino race is intellectually
inferior to the European races. This
does not prevent native Filipinos. how
ever, from demonstrating greater apti-
tude for certain work, and especially
for manual occupations, in which the
active use of intelligence is very little
required. They are for example, usu-
ally very good penmen, good wood
carvers, engravers, and the like. In
such occupations, given equal instruc-
tion, they surpass the Europeans. 1t
must be recognized, moreover, that
they are very clever at the reproduc-
tion, putting together, imitation, modi-
fcation, accommodation, and even the
invention Of apparatus, instruments
and machines for definite purposes.
Duly instructed, many of them become
and have become skillful mechanics.
In the use of their hands they easily
excel foreigners who come in contact
with them.
''In the fine arts they are wanting
in genius, inspiration, and power of
conception. Usually, too, they lack
sentiment and good taste. But they
reproduce and copy with great fidelity
and exactness anything beautiful
which they see. In music and poetry
their defects are not so noticeable. In
these they possess certain force and
variety Of expression which is missed
entirely in their painting and sculp-
ture. 1t must be remembered that in
strictly scientific and abstract knowl-
edge there have occurred among the
native Filipinos some minds far above
the general average of humanity.
"In all the classes of our Municipal
Athenaeum natives have frequently
distinguished themselves in purely in
tellectual work even in competition
with Spanish fellow-students. The
same thing is true in other institutions
Of learning here in Manila. In all the
professions, and even in the faculties
of the various educational institutions,
they have always been native Filipi-
nos and Indians Of pure race, who
have obtained distinguished positions
and merited renown by their intellec-
tual attachments"
AS to the question of limiting the
education offered to the Filipinos be-
cause they are unsuited for the higher
education, these very conservative, yet
progressive views, are advanced:
1--WE believe that to solve the prob
lem of the education of the Philippine
people the following opinions will be
found Of practical service:
First. Primary, elementary in
struction must be diffused as widely
as possible. In the larger centers of
population high schools must be
founded.
Second. The higher education
should be decentralized. Independent
colleges should be opened, in which a
complete college course will be given
and salutary discipline established.
Third. Those in charge of pri-

COMPROMISED.
The Suits in the Stidhdm
Gases Settled Out OF
Court Yesterday.

A suit which was of great in-
terest in the north part OF
the county and was expected to
be quite sensational was set
tied out of court Yesterday, beip &
the suit of the administrator in the
David Stidham estate against certain
heirs.
Mr.. Stidham died, leaving a very
large estate and a will; but on going
to make settlement the admins
traitor failed to find certain
notes and other papers
which other heirs claimed
should b- in existance. There were
certain children-Mary E White and
Sarah L. Thomas and the children
of John Stidham, deceased, who live
in Tennessee, who were dissatisfied.
The administrator brought suit
against Aida Stidham, 1.-THE widow
VIM A. Lillian Stidham; and Bart
and lydia Johnson; demanding the
production of the aforesaid notes and
other personal property, claiming
the conversion amounted to con
siderable sum.
Yesterday the attorneys in
the case Kirk man, Johnson,
Shiveley and the Studys-
representing all parties concerned,
met aud agreed on a compromise.
The heirs against whom the suits
were brought waived any interest in
the balance of the estate IN favor OF
the other heirs The amount thus
relinauished is about $3, 500 which is
considered fair as each of the other
children had received farm apiece
about eleven years ago. It avoids
what would have been tedious and
very expensive law suit.
