EDUCATING The FlLlPlNOS.

One of the special points made by
the advocates of compulsory civiIlza-
ton for the Filipinos Is that we have
established schools for the children.
Think of that when any one questions
our kindness We are taking the lit
tie Filipinos and making useful men
and women of them. They do not
give us any details of the school work,
but leave us to infer that 1t Is all that
could be desired A few days ago,
The Citizen published dispatch from
New Haven, Conn, giving an extract
from a letter written by Miss B. M,
Hull, who had gone out to the Philip
pines as a teacher. Miss Hull says
We have here histories that no child
In my school will be able to UNDER
stand in five years. biographies 'hdt
dismiss the Philippine islands In two
sentences. and arithmetics that no
child will be able to work with. Ihis
might be forgiven and attributed to
the ignorance of the needs when first
sending out books. were 1t not that
only recently we have received another
installment equally valueless. One
set consists of nature studies, extracts
from John Burroughs.
OF course small considerations like
these would have no effect upon great
intellects such as shed their sweetness
and light in the editorial columns OF
the Phoenix Republican. A school Is
a school. and II the measly Filipinos
do not learn when schools are provid-
ed, 1t is their own disgrace But a
thing like this illustrates the diff
culties in the way of attending 10
other peoples affairs, even when in
tentions are of the best. OF course no.
body can say whether intentions were
OF the best In this case. The school
book trust may have been unloading a
lot of emblamed books on the govern
ment, the Territories and the border
States being no longer available for
enterprise of that kind. That Is one
of the probabilities that can not be
entirely disregarded.
But supposing that the action was
honest, we meet the probability that
1t was due to some educational 'ex-
pert yersed In advanced pedagogy.
who assumed that the stuff which had
been decided to be for the best inter-
ests of American school children
would, of course, be the best FOR the
little Filipinos. We are not at all
certain that the studies outlined are
best for American children--certainl
there should be more attention given
to fundamentals In the schools--but
from the quotation given above 1t is
evident that they are not what are
needed in the Philippines, And natur-
ally enough: who Is there In this
country who can be supposed to know
what Is needed there?

The COMMON SENSE OF IT.

1t was inevitable, of course, that
some one should find parallel
between the destruction of Sodom and
Gomorrah and the disaster at St
Pierre, Martinique. Perhaps the idea
has occurred to others, but the dis
tinction of announcing II to wonder
ing world belongs to a former consul
of the United States at st. Pierre.
My first thought when / read of the
catastrophe, he says, was that 1t was
simply the history of Sodom and Go
morrah repeated. The morals of the
inhabitants OF st. Pierre were very
bad. / can not picture the vice and
immortality of that place vividly
enough"

TIE PIMA NARROW GAUGE
BONDS.

The affirmance of the validity or the
Pima narrow gauge bonds by the su-
preme court of the United States Is q
clear demonstration that injustice can
be done by the highest tribunal known
TO our laws and system of govern
ment,
There never was clearer steal. 1t
is even an offensive steal, for the
methods of the bunco man were en-
ployed to rob the people. The whole
affair, from beginning to end, reveals
premeditated robbery.
And the thieves can ask as Boss
Tweed asked on certain occasion,
What are you going to do about 1t?
For twenty-five years the county
judges of Clay county. Missouri, have
been elected to go to Jail in the inter
est of the taxpayers. Bonds similar
to the Pima county narrow gauge bonds
were issued to railroad company, or
An alleged railroad company, when the
county was governed by Republicans,
soon after the civil war. The bonds
we're issued to the railroad company
as an inducement to 1t to construct a
railroad within the county. The rail-
road company did not construct the
road. made no pretense of constructing
it, performed no service whatever for
the people, and in due time the county
properly repudiated the bonds. Suit
was brought and the case carried to
the supreme court of the United States,
where the validity of the bonds was
affirmed, just as in the case or the
Pima county narrow gauge bonds.
compelling the judges OF Clay county,
who have the same jurisdiction and
functions as supervisors in Arizona, to
make tax levy to redeem the bonds
and pay interest The Clay county
judges ignored the mandate, and
have kept on ignoring it for quarter
of a century. The judges are either
fugitives from officers OF the United
States, or are regularly taken into GUS
tody as soon as they qualify and re-
main in Jail during their term of office.
The outrage, the wrong the robbery
committed on the people Of Clay
county, Missouri, was not more griev
GUS, and not quite SO offensive. as that
perpetrated ON the people of Pima
county. Arizona 1t remains to be
seen if the people of Pima county are
made Of as good stun as the people of
Clay county
1t would have been impossible to
c0nsummate the robbery of the tax
payers of Pima county but for the ac-
tion of faithless public servant.
That man was Nathan Oaks Murphy.
He leagued with the bond thieves to
rob the people of Pima county when he
was the Delegate of Arizona to the
Congress Of the United States. Muir
ply was sworn officer. He was
elected to protect the interests of the
people of Arizona Instead he joined
with the robbers OF the people. and
this act alone should forever make
him infamous in the annals of Ari-
zona.
The Tucson citizen., 1902-05-21

The atflrmance Of the Pima county
narrow gauge bond steal by the su-
preme court will be an additional in
ducement for rejoicing when Murphy
retires from public life-this time for
good.

The jury Commissioners.

The Clerk of the Court, the Treas
urer and the Auditor, who are made
without solicitation on their part, the
Jury Commissioners, are deserving
of much credit for the promptness
with which they have acted in draw
ing the jury within the time pre-
scribed by law 30 as to make the
February term of the court possible.
Immediately after the bill became
the law the two first of these officers
received official notice, and the
Auditor, who was in the country
attending to his duties, was sum-
noned. The jury list was then pre-
pared and the jury drawn. By this
time nearly all of them have received
their summons and will doubtless
promptly answer to their names next
Monday. The juries drawn are said
to be composed of exceptionally good
men.

West, We commenced our journey
for Pelion with as light spirits and
cheerful countensnces as were posi-
BILE under the adverse circumstances.
After rough experience we arrived
at the comfortable and cosy home
Of Lucius Wise and were soon toast
ing or frozen bodies before cheer
full FIRE. Mr.. Wise is the son OF
the late lamented Lieutenant Jere-
miah Wise, Co. K, Goth regiment, un-
der whom We served during a por-
ton of the four years war for Con-
stitutioual liberty, and possesses all
of the sterling qualities which
characterized his father. He is the
efficient manager Of the large and
widely extended business interest OF
Mr.. D. B. Sphalar at this place and
his genial disposition has made him q
general favorite. He has charming
home which is gracefully presided
over by a lady of refined and cultured
taste and beauty Of character which
makes her an ornament to the place
in which she resides. A large num-
Der of taxpayers met US who were
served to the satisfaction of all. The
place has made but little improve
ment. MIR. j. G Fort, the father of
Pelion, has With his usual liberality,
erected a large building which
is to be used jointly ss church and
school house. We dined that day
at the hospitable home of Mr.. D.
F. Shumpert's and our treatment was
such as to make US wish to 60 there
again.
Being in the vicinity of our friend,
Mr.. John McCartha, We could not re-
sist the temptation to spend the night
beneath his roof. he is kindness
personifed and warmer or truer
heart never beat beneath the shirt
bosom Of any man. We delight to
visit him and greatly enjoy being
in his company. He has an interest
ing family of young ladies and gen
tlemen who are exceedingly popular
and number their friends by the
score.
From there We went to Luther
Gsntt's for the purpose of interview
ing the taxpayers who desired to
make their returns. About the usual
number of persons met us and we had
a pleasant time chatting with those
sturdy sons of Lexington. After en-
jnying a delightful dinner, which had
been prepared for US, and of which
we partook heartily, we left for our
next appointment.
When We arrived at Williams We
proceeded Immediately to serve all
the people from the Edisto and the
Black creek sections and thereby
saved them long trip to the Court
House.
On account of the extreme cold
weather we were forced to stop at
Mr.. Glover Able's, were everything
possible was done for our comfort
AID happiness. We were warmly
welcomed and kindly treated, fed
well and roomed warm and comfort

report from the monkey cage
CT Barnum's Circus ever since
the keepers began dosing the
monkeys with SCOTS Emil

ing off two thirds of them
every year and the circus had
to buy new ones.
One day a keeper accident

Emulsion near the monkey
cage and the monkeys eagerly
Tapped it up from the floor.
This suggested the idea that il
might do them good. Since
then the monkeys have received
regular doses and the keepers

consumption. OF course it's
cheaper to buy SCOTS Emul-

that suits the circus men.
