M'ARTHUR ON
THE PHILIPPINES
The People Of the Islands by Their Unaidsd
Efforts Cannot Establish a
Republic.

The ualtsd States Must Retain tho Archipelago |. a
Tulilonary Annex and Must Plant lts Institutions
There and Contend for The Commercial
Supremacy.
THE DUTY OF THIS NATION

Washington. April 3O.-General Mac
Arthur today gave further testimony
before the senate committee on the
Philippines. He said that the people of
the Philippines own unaided efforts to
accomplish self-regeneratio would, in
all probability, prove abortive. Under
the tuitionary control of the United
States the body polite would be rapid
ly nodded into a consistent, self-sup-
porting commonwealth. American
withdrawal from the islands would, in
his opinion, result in the permanent
failure of republican institutions in the
east and fratricidal war, which
would continue until suppressed by
some exterior force. The broad gener-
alization, he said, is reached that the
United States must retain the archipel-
ago as a tuitionary annex; we must
plant our institutions there, and must
contend for commercial supremacy and
perhaps combat for political suprema-
cy to overcome the inherent difficulties
of the situation. Macarthur denied
that there has been any unusual de-
struction of life In the Philippine war.

ROCK ISLAND PLANS.
The System will Not 30 Extended to tho Coast for the
Present. Line 10 Salt Lake.

The first official confirmation of the
plans for western extensions of the
Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific rail-
road was given by R. R. Gable. chair
man of the board Of directors Of the
company who passed through Los An
geles returning to his home after hav-
ing spent the winter at Santa Barbara.
Mr.. Cable said that westward extern
sion from Denver would be. the first
undertaking Of his company. A line
through to the coast, he said, would
not be undertaken, because present
joint traffic agreements with the South
ern Pacific We're so satisfactory that
there Is no need of another line. When
the rumored new line through north
ern Colorado to Salt Lake was men,
toned, Mr.. Gable said:
THAT line will be built can't say
anything about details, or tell how
soon the work will be done. Those are
matters to be determined upon further
and surveys. There is
a rich country in northern Colorado not
reached by any railroad that offers
many inducements to railroad builders.
The line projected to run directly west
from Denver across the mountains
would be shorter by at least $50 miles
than the Denver and Rio Grande and
shorter than the Union Pacific"
Mr.. Cable would not talk on what
,opnllcctions would III made by the pro-
jected new line to Salt Lake, whether
lit would reach the coast over the
Clark road, or if the agreement now
existing with the Hartman lines would
| be extended and the Central Pacific
and the new extension of the Oregon
Short Line would be the outlet.
There are evidences of an alliance
between the Clark road and the Rock
Island. During Mr.. Cables stay In
Santa Barbara officials of the Salt
Lake road have been in repeated con-
ference with him. The Rock Island is
reported to have become interested In
the Los Angeles terminals Of the Salt
Lake road, and the new trains for the
Salt Lake road and all its building ma
terials are shipped west over the Rock
Island

The delegation of western Gait cmen

leg islation on Monday called upon Com.
missioner Hermann of the general land
Office and asked if he would approve a
plan of legislation providing for control

The delegation also appeared before

under favorable conditions, which con-
ditions have prevailed during the past
two years. An abundance Of the finest
water can be procured at a depth OF
from IS to 80 feet. Windmills dot the
country. "
Back from the farming section are
great ranches, where Craze upon the
rich grasses thousands Of cattle, sheer
ana horses. Portales Is one of the
greatest shipping points on the Pecos
