PHILIPPINE PHILANTHROPY,

i Assimilation, AUGMENTATION, Education Christi anza-
| ton, Pacifcation and Civilization.
This is the task which the United States has cheerfuy
undertaken in the Philippine Islands, 1t sounds little
dsoya to say that looks like of foolish rushing
but must be acknowledged that something sus-
piconsy of that appearance The varegted population
lof the Philippines consists of the Tagas moRgrel mix
ture of the Malay, Chinese and Spanish of which the
we'll Remembered Agunado is the highest type; the vi
sayan, of which little to be known except that
they speak dialect used by any other people, and
totally incomprehensble the chatering of monkeys
They chiefly savages, who live by fishing and shoot
stab all strangers sight, the Moros who are supposed
be Mohammedans and notable for suddenly sweep
| ing down from the woods on the little coast
towns, stealing everything they lay their hands on
carrying the women into captivity and numbering the
men; the Igorrotes who go entirely Naked shoot with
bows and and hunt heads for version the Sups
who have sultan who has harem OF slaves and an as
sortment of uncassifed tribes who are eannbas and
Hworshp anything at ALL far can be ascertaned
small army of teachers male and female has been sent
out to ciyilize these interesting peopleo Chrisanze
and make them WISE" How the teachers propose to 90
about it, remains little vague The president of the
commission says I'VE mean to naugurate as conn pre-
hensve school system throughout the sands as circum
stances will permit"
Whether the roseate dreams Of the commission are de-
stined to be realized not admits Of doubt big black
and portentous but at all events thrilling and strenu
GUS time awaits the teachers In the first place the tte
gorrotes and SO forth must be caught like Mrs. Glass
hare and it will behove the teachers to look well to it
that they themselves do n0pay the roll Of the hare The
average school teacher not be emptngy tender
the gorrote cook probably not fastidous The situa
:ion is full of inerestfor the teachers 1t will call
absorbing vigilance on their part to avoid beng caught
by the patrons of the schools well as to impress upon
the youthful Igorote the chatecism and the mysteries of
Philippine spelling and geography Possibly It would bel
well to leave the chatechism out of the curriculum in
OF the Sutanof Joos recent proclamation that there
was no good reason why Americans should be killed. as
hey were really not Christians The American Milan Of
vilizing the Philippines will doubt amuse the nations Ia
'ut not the teachers the Islands ever become desr LIP
bile as settlement for white people their civilization and
discrimination will take place speedily enough but it
Vl be accomplished by cYlzing the natives off the face
the earth and not by teaching them to spell.
