THE WA TER CURE.


The investigation being made
at Washington by the Senate
committee on Philippine matters
has revealed some peculiar
methods used by the Americans
to teach the obstinate Filipino
how to enjoy the blessings of
Christian civilization. Of course
these stringent measures are
employed only in the case of the
Filipino who entertains the fool
ish and REASONABLE hope of
being free and independent.
Shooting him full of lead is one
way to impress the native with
the superiority of American
government and is the one most
in use, but this method is con-
sidered too drastic and does not
give the victim sufficient time to
~recant. The water cure" has
been adopted as the most eff
fective process to bring the
hard headed islander to his
senses. According to the evil
dence adduced before the Senate
committee the water cure" is
administered in the following
manner: The recalcitrant is
stripped to the waist and his
hands are tied behind his back.
He is held under a tank contain
ing 100 gallons of water and his
mouth, which is held open, is
placed directly under a faucet,
and in this way he is compelled
to swallow all the water which
is allowed to escape. If this
process fails to carry conviction
to the mind Of the offending per-
son, he is pumped full of salt
water with a horse-syringe, one
end of which is applied to his
nose. This last method gener-
ally does the work, as the man
does not care to longer permit
himself to be used as a drainage
plant and he Surrenders uncOn-
ditiOnally to the cause of good
government. In other words,
he comes out of the ordeal thor
oughly assimilated, benevolently
and otherwise
All this may seem like the very
-oefinement of cruelty to tender
hearted people, but it must be
remembered that we are
strictly Christian nation and the
untutored mind of the Filipino
must be disabused of it's crude
notions regarding human rights,
independence, self-government
and other things which have long
ago become obsolete.
High army officials in the
Philippines are of the opinion
that an intelligent and scientific
application of the water cure'
is the most powerful argument
that can be used to convert the
benighted Filipino to our parti-
cular brand of Christian civiliza
ton. In the event that the
remedy should fail to produce
the desired results when applied
with faucet and fresh water,
the horse-syringe with salt
water is said to be absolutely in
fallible.

YE TIE rs PROGRES
SIZE.

Inc oHecC OF Ule movement
to establish an industrial college
at Lafayette has been to stimuli
ate public sentiment all along
the lines of progress. 1t was
the first step in the right direc-
ton. Had the State cold -bloodedly
provided this college in it's en-
tirety or had some philanthropist
made great donation, by which
all local self-help became unne-
cessary, the industrial school
movement would have had no
such effect as it has had.
THE contest for the domicile
of this college was spirited. La
fayette won out, not alone by it's
needs or it's natural advantages,
but by arOusing public sentiment
and stimulating the public mind
to the necessity of giving and
doing for the public good. The
seeds planted have sprung up
and brought forth good fruit.
Lafayette helped itself to secure
the Industrial, and it has gone
on helping itself in schools. light,
water and general public i'm
prOvements. It was only last
week that the taxpayers of that
town voted on a proposal to tax
themselves for new school
house, and for improved water
and light service. There was
spirited campaign. Among the
features of the new school
building movement was a grand
rally of the pupils of the town on
Thursday before the election.
There was a street parade Of all
the school children in Lafayette,
followed by mass meeting in
the public square and add resses
by prominent citizens. The
spirit which secured the Indus
trial prize won out again, and
Lafayette is to have still another
school building and more and
better light and water.
Pretty soon they will be re-
ferring to that section as the
Athens Of Louisiana, rather than
as the poetic and entrancing re-
gion where sweet Evangeline
wandered and was lost. Baton
Rouge Advocate.
In behalf of the town The Ga
zette thanks Col. Jones for his
encouraging words. The victory
recently won by the friends of
progress will be of incalculable
benefit to this community. De-
feat of the prcpo sition to have a
new school house and improved
water and light facilities would
have been a severe blow to the
town, the ill-effects of which
would have been almost impos-
sible to overcome
The result of the last election
shows that the people of this
town have learned the principle
of self-help. 1t demonstrates
that the spirit of the ''knocker"
no longer prevails here, that
while the unprogressive citizen
may still have his say, he is in
and his power for harm
is minimized. Shreveport, Lake
Charles, Crowley, Alexandria
and all the other towns that have
shown desire to travel out of
the old ruts have forged to the
front by applying the principle
of self-help to their needs as

boast of a modern public school
building. With the Industrial

school-house and several private
