Asks to he Sent to Philippines.

"In view Of the above considerations,
make the request that be authorized to
proceed to the Philippine Islands. taking
with me ten men whom may select from
Cuba and Porto Rico. whose assistance has
been found useful In promoting friendly
relations between the people Of those Is
lands and the United States. and who could
properly explain to the Filipinos the bene-
fits their people have derived through
friendly relations with this country. and
while there to give such directions as
may deem advisable and judicious for the
best disposition of the United States mil
itary forces. to the end that they may &C.
cupy the most healthful and strategic posi-
lions, with due regard to economy, and be
afforded the greatest comfort and benefit;
also to take such measures as will tend to
restore, as far as possible, confidence to
the people of those islands, and demon
strate that the purpose OF our government
Is promoted by the highest sense Of Jus
tice; and that on returning be authorized
to bring to the capital such number OF rep
resentative Filipinos as I may think adj
yisable, in order that they may see and
know the advantages OF our civilization
and realize the disposition of our govern
ment toward them. at the same time af-
fording an opportunity for full consulta-
ton, whereby intelligent and definite ac-
ton may be taken concerning their future
destiny 1t is confidently believed that
such measures could then be taken as
would be satisfactory and beneficial to the
10, 100000 Of Inhabitants OF the Philippine
islands and highly creditable to our govern
ment.
"By this means we would be fully in
formed Of the condition and wants of the
people of those Islands, and they, on the
other hand, would become fully apprised
of the purpose and final disposition of our
government toward them. This need not
reflect In the slightest degree upon the
services of the military, nor Interfere with
the civil governments that have been or
may be established.
SHOULD this request be approved, am
confident II would result In a better condi-
tion of our military forces in that division.
in the cessation Of hostilities within rea-
sonable time, thereby permitting the re-
turn of a large number of our troops from
those remote and unhealthful stations.
and should hope, in an amicable ad-
justment of affairs In those islands which
would be satisfactory to the inhabitants
thereof as we'll as to the people of the
United tSates.

ITALY IS GROWING FAST.
Resent Estimates show That Her
Population IL Increasing with
Rapid Strides.

Italy is almost the only Latin coun-
try in Europe which shows steady
growth of population. France has
for years been on the decline, but
latest states show it is nearly sta
tionary, the death and birth rates
being nearly equal. The returns Of
the recent census in Italy are now
published and they show crafty
ing though not extraordinary
growth of population in the PENN
sula, despite the large emigration
and the hard times which have pre-
vailed there in late years. In round
numbers the population of Italy is
now 32,500,OOO. That is an increase
of more than 100000 in the last 20
years. That is not large increase,
but it Is, on the whole, satisfactory.
1t is not, of course, the whole in
crease of the Italian race. In these
20 years more than 100000 Italians
have emigrated to other lands. The
actual growth of the race has, there
fore, been more than 100000 in 20
years, or more than one per cent. a
year.
This does not, however, confirm the
common idea that the Italians are
an exceptionally prolific race. The
growth of other nations has been
proportionately more rapid. That
of France has not been. That Of
Russia has been effected by conquest
and wholesale annexation. That Of
the United States has been due to
enormous immigration, as well as to
high birth rate. But while Italy
in the nineteenth century increased
from 100000 to 32,50O,O0O, or only
a little more than doubled, Great
Britain grew from 100000 to A.
OOO, 900 and Germany from 24,000,000
to 100000 and each of these coun-
tries suffered as great loss from
wars as Italy and considerably
greater loss through emigration.
Telephones Hurt Roads.
1t is an odd fact, but true, that some
steam railroads have complained OF
the harm done to their best class OF
passenger traffic by the long-distance
telephone, while hotels in western
cities have also attributed reduction
of patronage to the same cause.
Travel between this city and st. Louis,
for example, is said to have been APP
preciably cut down by the telephone.
Such result would seem difficult to
trace tangibly, although one meets
people daily who, to avoid weary trips,
have governed themselves ON the in
Junction: "Don't travel; telephone
But the telegraph and the mail have
also been deterrents, and if there is
any validity to the alleged reason the
high-speed electric travel Of the f,i.
ture may restore the former condi,
tions. Chicago Chronicle.

Minnesota Forest Preservation.


The hopes of Minnesota champions
of forest preservation have been some
what dashed by recent developments
in connection with the Chippewa In
dian reservation. 1t was proposed at
first to save the whole tract Of ancient
pine lands for scientific care as q ma
tional forest. The wishes of lumber
men, some pressure from other quar-
tiers to open the lands for settlement,
and the willingness of Minnesota rep
resentatives to please both classes
have led to a considerable modification
Of the original plan. The segregation
Of forest lands is to be limited, accord,
ing to present proposals, to 225,0O(
acres, and these are not to be turned
over to the department of agriculture
until the pine timber, or all but five
per cent. of it, has been removed.-N

Regrets Action Of Miles.

There has not yet been time for the
report to be made. and the direction for the
investigation can only just now have
reached Manila. It is to be regretted thai
the officer of the highest rank In the army
should assume the truth Of charges reflect
ing upon the credit OF the army in advance
Of the investigation which has been or
dered, and without giving Gen. Chaffee.
upon whose particular command the
charges reflect. an opportunity to be heard.
Gov. Tafts letter shows that the civil
governor Of the Philippines was unwilling
to accept the charges as true without an
Investigation.
