AS ONLY 800 recruits q month Tor

whole country last year, and as the
term of many Of the troops will
soon expire, the new army bill provides
for enlistiDg force of twelve thousand
Fiipinos for service against their own
people 10 their own country. The his
tory Of all times and all countries
proves that troops Of that sort are very
unreliable. Their own women are
against them, let alone their own men,
aud it is hard for human nature to with
stand such an influence, especially in
the interest OF an alien and foreign race.
Filipinos would fight against Chinese

out of their way to confer rank and

when such Congressman accept person

not strange that they should feel under
