heard each child recite a lesson
learned by memory. The chief sub
ject taught was the church catechism.
Now we have a good system with a
general superintendent at its head,
ten assistent superintendent, one
thousand American teachers and
about three thousand native teachers,
all paid by the Insular Government.
Books and supplies are furnished free
by the government; the towns each
pay their native teachers and give
the school house. English is taught
entirely. We have ten months school,
April and May being vacation. School
hours are a. III. to 10 a. M; 10 to II
teachers class, as the native teachers
must learn English as well as the pu-
pills; in the afternoon $50 to 5. Each
American teacher usually has a class
of young men at night also. Pupils,
big and little, must begin with a
chart, primer and first reader; object
lessons and conversation are part
of our daily work. The children learn
our language and learn to read per-
haps more rapidly than American
children. In writing, drawing or any
thing they can initiate with their
hands they are more apt than our
own children.
My advanced class completed the
econd reader and began to speak in
telligent English after five months
study.
The war, so far as the Christian ma
tives are concerned, is over; the Moros
are liable to give us trouble at any
time and they are the fiercest fighters
in the islands.
Americans are not loved, but the
people realize that America is in earn
est about governing the islands and
they know it is useless to resist the
American soldiers, so they have re-
solved to give the government an OPP
portunity to show what it can do for
them. If they are treated kindly and
firmly and educated to American
standards they will never rebel.
The severe measures used by the
army since last December were most
timely. Officers like Chaffee, Smith
and Bell will have the credit of bring
ing peace to the land by making
"war hell" while others like Otis
only prolonged the bloodshed by
kindness. The most disgraceful poll
tics in recent years are those of the
opponents of the administration since
1898. While they encouraged the in
surgents to resist our soldiers and
now for political capital only they
attack the army and by putting fact
and fancy together they try to de-
ceiye the people.

PEARRE By A((LAMATION.
The Sixth Congressional District
Convention Selects Him
With Cheers.
A GREAT REPUBLICAN LOVE FEAST.
Resolutions Endorsing His Course In Con-
gress, Praising Senator McComas and
UNFOLDING the Administration Passed.

Our friends the enemy" may sneer
and carp as usual, but there is no
mistaking the fact that Hon. George
A. Pearre has a great hold on the
hearts of the masses of the Republi-
can party. He was honored at Hagers-
town Thursday as few men in poll
tics are honored. From every county
in the Sixth District men of nearly
every avocation came in large num-
bers to again formally present him as
the Republican candidate for the
House of Representatives.
The voice of discord was not once
raised. All united in saying that the
district could not well stand the loss
of the services of this sincerely pa
triotic, Jealous servant. Col. Pearre
is one of the hardest working mem
bers of the House and his constituents
know it.
Thursday in the convention Col.
Pearre made the speech of his life.
All his friends unite in saying this.
Never other than captivating speak
er, Col. Pearre as he approaches the
noon of manhood and as his educa-
ton increases in the school of exper-
fence, he shows Increased usefulness
and as one who is courageous, faith
full and loyal, he deserves the great
measure of success which he is at
tanning.
Charles H. Hoffman, of Allegany
county, called the convention to Or
der at 1890 o'clock.
On motion of Delegate Miller, of
Montgomery county, Gist Blair, of
Montgomery county, was unanimous
ly elected chairman.
Col. A. G. Sturgiss, of Garrett, and
George L. Kaufman, of Frederick,
were unanimously elected secretaries.

ton was made permanent, and the
credentials of all delegates were ac-

State Normal School No. g.

The fact should not be forgotten.
especially in educational circles, that
State Normal School No. ., Frost
burg, Md, will open at some date in
early autumn for the tuition of those
intending to prepare themselves for
the profession of teaching.
1t can be stated also with equally
reasonable certainty that the school
will be in charge of a corps of teachers
trained for the special work of teach
ing teachers how to teach.
Above these the members of the
State Board of Education, of which
the Governor of the State is presl-
dent, are e1ofcdO, trustees of the
school, including also the State Sup
erintendent of Public Education.
The Journal voluntarily makes
this notice in order that all of the
many who are doubtless interested
may be advised without necessarily
awaiting the official notice which the
trustees will doubtless announce so
soon as they can mature their plans.

The Christmas season declares the

Christ. his Son This is the good news
that Goats down from heaven at Christ

sen why Christianity is glad news Is
found in The fact that it reveals Goa DO
man. Never, until Christ came, was
the greatness Of mans capacity TO re-

value. Heaven paid such price for
man that man himself was ast1nished. "

His sheep, Christianity is a perfect re-
lgion FOR sinful men. IL is a religion

A King.
The second keynote Of the an GELS song
is that the child Christ was to be a
king. Christ first saves and then be
rules. He is the worlds deIiverer and
the worlds Lord. All power and glory
belong unto Him because Of His divine
nature, AS His work Of redemption
progresses he becomes more and more
crowned in the hearts, thoughts and the
aiairs Of men, The world feels His pres
ence and His power in its history. he
wields the scepter OF universal authority
AS the waters Of an rivers pour toward

experiences Of nations contribute to-
ward the ultimate triumph Of Christ's

is that all events point toward the fact
that Christ viii be one day the King

tanity is optimistic. It has filed the
world with hope. Christ is both the
