1hE-Ctick of q Traveller Has

On Maple Hill, one mile west of the
village of Geneva, stands one Of the
largest tTres in this state. 1t is 100
fe": high, lis feet in diameter, meas
urcd through the branches. and the
diameter of the trunk is eight feet.
Maple Hill is the home Of Charles Bean.
1t is the highest ridge in the vicinity
OF Geneva and the tree can be seen
for many miles from nearly every
point of the compass. For many years
the turnpike (now Hamilton ~strcct),
on which the tree stands, WAS an In
dian trail. The trail became 4 state
road in 1894.
Somewhere about 100 years ago,
lays the Buffalo Express, a prospector
named Ephraim Lee passed through
the present site of Geneva. on n trip
over the Old Albany aud Buffalo turn
pike. On his journey around the foot
OF Seneca lake he cut n stick TO helm

earth and, lying down. went 10 sleep.

story preserved the tree, when the
forest was cleared all about it. and in
1913 the trunk was driven full of
spikes. so that an unscntimcntal road
master could not cut /, down. 1t is
believed that the iron is the cause of
its wonderful. thrifty old age. When
Gen. Ia Fayette visited Geneva he was

AN APPALLING LIST.

A copy of the civilian salary lists at
Manila under the American government
there has come to light. As reported by
the Chicago Daily News, it is an exposure
1t to make any sensitive American blush
for shame. These salary lists carry 4,6U6
names. OF that number OF Office holders
2,044, or nearly As per cent, are Ameri-
cans, and 1862, or slightly more than So
per cent, are Filipinos. The annual
salaries of these 1905 office holders
amount to $3,OS6, $3.50, mild average OF
ONLY $780, But OF this amount the Fill
pinos get but $SO8,945, or about 26 per
cent, while the Americans get 50 ,2SO, 044,
or about "A per cent. 1t appears, there
fore, that only 26 per cent of the salaries
20 to IS per cent of the officials. who are
Filipinos, and that "A per cent of the
salaries go to IS per cent of the officials,
who are Americans.
Gov. Taft receives 100000, which is
double the highest salary paid to the
governor OF any state. Four American
commissioners receive $4,000 each, or
three times the salary Of members of
congress. Other salaries. drawn almost
exclusively by Americans, vary from
IS 900 to 1880. AS these salaries are
paid by the people of the Philippines,
the circumstances are not altogether UNI
like those of which the Americans COM
planned so bitterly in 1875, when, in the
Declaration OF independence, they
charged George III with having "erected
a multitude OF new Offices, and sent
hither swarms OF officers to harass our
people and eat out their substance.

SOME NEEDED CHANGES.

CITY Clerk Black and Water Commits
sioner Linn are making an effort to clean
up the delinquencies in the water collec'
tions at the close of the year, and are
diligently drumming up delinquent con-
sumers, After the first OF the year con-
sumers will not be permitted to become
more than ten days in arrears for water.
If bills are not paid by the 10th Of the
month the supply will be cut off.
A difficulty now encountered, in cut
ting off the supply Of delinquents, is that
in a number Of instances several con.
sumers occupy one building and some
pay and some do not. The non-payers
cannot be cut off without stopping the
supply of those who pay, and thus the
city loses considerable revenue each year.
The way to avoid this is to adopt the
system, in force in most cities, of fixing
a water rate for each building and hold
ing the owner responsible, and let him,
not the city, look out for the tenants.
Another matter that should be attend
ed to with the beginning of the year is
the system OF accounts kept by the city.
No individual or corporation could do
business with the Aberdeen system Of
bookkeeping. Under that system it
would require an expert for week to
render an intelligent statement of the
expenditures of the city for the year. A
statement that would show the exact
amount expended for each item of the
city's expenses is almost impossible un-
der the present system. A book similar
to the current expense account" kept
by the county auditor would cost but
little. and the posting OF it make very
little work. With this account anyone
could inform himself at a glance just
what any particular branch Of the city
government was costing.

The Game Warden.

The presence Of a gams warden in Che
halls county has had a salutary effect the
present year. The mere fact that there
is an officer in the county ready to enforce
the existing law, has brought to the
minds Of sportsmen the fact that
there were limits and restrictions beyond
which it was unsafe 10 pass. We have
not heard as in former years, Of the kill
ing Of ten or fifteen elk by one hunter.
Sportsmen generally have procured cop.
les of the game law and inform them.
selves as 10 the seasons when they might
kill various kinds OF game. The wild
game Of Chehalis county is one OF it's
valuable assets, to say nothing OF the
pleasure it affords to MANY hundreds of
hunters. The game warden office has
paid for itself during the present year !;
and has afforded reasonable protection
to the game Of the county. To abolish
the Office now would he serious mis-.
take.-Vidette.

QUITE A RESEMBLANCE.

The resemblance of the British "inter.
national police duty" in South Africa to
the American international police duty
in the Philippines is much closer. even
in detail, than is commonly supposed.
The fact is sharply illustrated by re-
cent incident in the experience OF the
American Transvaal League. Among
the recipients Of circular from this
league was an English gentleman tenn
porarily resident in Nice. This gentle
man courteously acknowledged the cir
cular, which admonished him to help
"Make England Fight Fair" and con-
tanned some disagreeable facts about
British reconcentrado camps. In his
acknowledgement he asked "why the
American people do not act fairly by the
Filipinos-grant their independence and
evacuate their territory?" By so doing,
he added, "they would earn title to
take other nations to task" In justifi-
cation of his question, this English gen.
tleman inclosed several news clippings
from Reuters special service, undermining
the pertinent parts. These clippings in
dictate that the United states is doing in
the Philippines precisely what Ameri'
cans complain of Great Britain for doing
in South Africa. We quote some OF the
underlined sentences:
"Manila, Oct. 25.-Among the Ameri'
can troops in Samar an intensely bitter
feeling prevails against the Filipinos,
and if they can meet the enemy in the
oper they are prepared to infiict severe
punishment. Gen. Smith,
commanding in Samar, has issued a
notice ordering the people to concentrate
IL the towns, and declaring that other
wise they will be considered public
enemies and outlaws and will be treated
accordingly.
manila, Oct. 23.-Most OF the towns
in the south OF Samar have been de-
stroyed."
The fact is that both Great Britain and
the United States are descending to the
barbarous methods OF Weyler in Cuba
for the very object that Weyler had in
view-the subjugation of weaker peo-
pie for the sake of their lands. The
event goes far to prove that when the
Spanish caricaturists four years ago pic
tured Uncle Sam as greedy hog, they
were disgustingly sagacious.- The
Public.

Aberdeen playgoers are acquiring an

Aberdeen playgoers are acquiring an
unenviable reputation as suckers among
the fly-by-night theatrical companies,
whose sole claim to the artistic lies in
their autographed posters and their i'm
maculate gall. No matter how grievously
disappointed by performance, our lovers
of the stage are sure, with Micawber-
like hope, to turn up at the next. Com
panies of size and merit, whose perform
ances on the Sound and at Portland are
commended by the press, have got into
habit of running down to Aberdeen
when they have an off date, with part
of their company and scenery to work a
film fam on the unsophisticated denizens
of this locality. This was worked to a
turn by the Jules Grau Company last
week, who came down here with "a
people-although the full company con-
ssts of fifty persons-and gave an imita-
ton of the opera of Fra Diavalo. To say
the large audience was disappointed and
cold, is drawing a mild bow. They were
disguised. But, with the serene hope
fitness alluded to, they. probably, may
be relied upon to bite at the next, If the
bait be autographed in eight colors.

RATHER INCONSISTENT.

Instructions have been given through
out the island of Luzon to celebrate an
nually in the public schools "the birthday
of Jose Rial, the Filipino patriot who
was executed by the Spaniards. Such
is the order of the American superin.
tendent OF public schools in the Philip.
pines, according to Manila dispatches
published on the 9th. The dispatches
add that "the life and history Of Rial
will be recited on this day." What is
the meaning of it all? Rial a "patriot !!
Did he not "rebel" against the authority
OF Spain? We recognized Spain's right
to govern the Filipinos when we paid her
$2O, 1000, 900 for her title. We recognize
it now when we are spending $ll9, 0O0, 900
a year to maintain that title against the
inhabitants. Ii the Filipino who resists
our authority is "rebel," a guerrilla, I"
bandit" surely the Filipino who re-
sisted Spain's authority was also a
'rebel," guerrilla" and "bandit. :"
Not even President Roosevelt's adeptness
in twisting logic and language can make
our title one whit better than the title of
the country from which we got it.
If Rial were still alive, resisting our
invasion as he resisted Spain's occupa-
ton, he would be, in the language OF
President Roosevelt's recent message,
deserving OF no more respect or sympa-
thy than an Apache Indian. Why, then,
this order styling Rial "patriot' and
Aberdeen herald. [volume] (Aberdeen, Chehalis County, W.T.) 1886-1917, 1901-12-26

directing the annual celebration OF his
birthday? 1t is q dangerous experiment.
If we are to keep the Filipinos in subjec'
ton our officials in Manila should see to
it rather that the word "patriot" is
blotted from the dictionary. They
should also prohibit the importation or
printing of copies of the Declaration OF
Independence. References to patriotism
and just government resting upon the
consent of the governed can do no good
in country that acknowledges our SOW
ereignty only at the muzzles of a hundred
cannon and 1900 rifles.
