MANILA, Dec. 1.-The financial situation
in the Philippine islands is causing con-
siderable alarm. In an interview published
in Manila Henry c. Ide, chief of the de-
partment of finance and justice, referred
to the probable enforcement of an altera-
ton in the immediate future of the present
government parity of two Mexican dollars
for one gold dollar The United States
postoffice here now refuses, except to gov
eminent employees, to issue money orders
in exchange for Mexican silver. The banks
of Manila have been making from 6 to
per cent. on exchange. Merchants and
others are forced to carry their accounts
in Mexican silver.
The commercial community had relied
upon the United States Philippine commits
sion to continue the ratio Of two Mexican
dollars for one gold dollar, which the COM
mission itself created. The commission is
unable to act in the matter without the
authority of Congress. This authorization
has been requested. Charles A. Conant,
special commissioner of the War Depart-
ment to investigate the state Of coinage
and banking in the Philippines and report
for remedial legislation, who is now in
Washington, was the bearer of the commits
sions views on this matter.
The stores OF Manila are compelled to &C
cept two Mexican dollars for one gold dol
lar while Chinese spectators are paying
high as per cent. premium in American
paper money for American gold.
Local bankers say that If the salaries
of all insular employees were paid in the
local, or Mexican, currency Independently
of the fluctuations of this currency, and
if the government had not attempted to en-
force rate of exchange the present finan-
cial situation would never have arisen.
The Commission on Municipal Laws and
Regulations is about to change the terms of

probably, what they saw was the con-
stellatiOn known as the PleiadeS, thinly
yelled by atmospheric conditions.

All this grandstand play to the
galleries on the part Of certain eau
casian editors about this being a
"white mans country" is the most
peurile rubbish that could be dished
up to the average reader. No one is
doubling or denying but this is a
white mans country, and when a
hundred japanese get employment
at some point OF place it is no proof
that japanese labor is supplanting
white labor, and the rule might be
applied to any other nationality that
is getting employment in this coun-
try. If we make no mistake there
are other countries besides the
white mans country in which the
white man is playing a rather con-
spicuous part in such country's af-
fairs just now and it might be well
to give and take in these matters.
