Every Filipino in the employ of the
government can rest assured of his
place so long as he maintains himself
as an upright, honest and patriotic cit

his being thrown out of employment or
his pay being filched from him. He said
the competitive system of appointments
has been the greatest instrument for
success in the Philippines. The appli-
cation Of the system to Porto Rico has
not been SO extensive as it has been in
our Pacific ocean possessions because
the Porto Ricans. unlike the Filipinos,
had a civil establishment that had to
be replaced more tentatively. But
there the new system as in this country
was gradually supplanting the old The
competitive system has taught the ma
tives the necessity of education and it
has acted as an incentive FOR the par
ents to send their children to the pub
lie schools 1t is also causing the par
ents themselves to seek an education

ample in history where a great nation
has overcome a weaker people and
turned over to it the entire machinery
of government. The example of the
governmental the United States in thus
eliminating all political influence in the
appointments in our insular possessions
has tendency to react on our own peo-
pie and will awaken a spirit for better
government and efficiency at home. He
paid a high compliment to President

PETITION FOR PARDON.

To his Excellehcy, Governor A. H. Lon.
ginO. Governor of the State of Missis-
sippi:
We, the undersigned citizens of Perry
county, Mississippi, and vicinity, re-
spectfully petition your excellency to
pardon Isham BoOthe, convicted of
arson at the October, 1901, term of the
circuit court of the second judicial dis
trict of the county of Perry, state Of
mississippi, and sentence,' to u term of
five years in the penitentiery, tor the
causes set out below:
First Because his conviction rests
alIlo-t entirely upon circumstantial
evidence of an indefinite. unreliable and
misleading character, upon which we do
not believe conviction should be al
lowed to stand;
Second. The principal state witness,
Will Lang, is wholly unreliable and
unworthy of belief, and but tor his evil
dence, we do not believe a conviction
would have been permitted to stand:
Third. We believe, es a matter Of
fact. that the said defendant is innocent
of said charge and was enormously con-
victed, because of testimony unworthy
of belief (not criticislng corrt ur juryl:
and
Fourth. We believe, that although
the defendant were guilty, the ends Of
Justice have been met,-that he is re-
formed and will make a law-abiding
citizen from this time forward; and we
relieve his record in the penitentiary
will confederate this view.

The Biloxi Review cannot see how
it is that Notwithstanding an increase
in the property value of Harrison
county there is no decrease but an
increase in taxation. Perhaps Har-
rlson, like Perry and several other
counties, levied a special school tax.
Perry levied one and a half mills for
that purpose which makes our taxes
six and half mills, little higher
than Harrison, but several mills low
er than some other counties.

Just where the Clarion-Ledger
gets its information that the insur-
ance companies are a trust and that
1t is trust and not the people who
are clamoring for a special session
of the legislature to repeal the valu-
ed policy clause OF the insurance law,
is one of those problems fellow can
not solve. But admitting that it is a
trust what benefit would be derived
by the insurance people if the clause
is repealed or not repealed? The
cotton raised in this state, the last
bale of it, will be insured by these
companies, though not until it leaves
the state. 1t is true it will knock
ont the local agents, but not the COM
panles. So it is very poor argument
to contend that the insurance COM
panies are a trust and are making
this fight for their. own benefit only.
There is perhaps not bank in the
state that is not helping the trust
in this fight, and yet no one has
charged the banks of being a trust.
They are making the fight from a
business standpoint, and concern
that does not fight for business and
