On July A last, on the 10Th anniver-
sary Of the declaration of independence,
peace and amnesty were promulgated in
the Philippine islands. Not only does
each Filipino enjoy such rights to life,
liberty, and the pursuit of happiness
as he has never before known during
the recorded history of the islands. but
the people taken as a whole now enjoy
a measure of self-government greater
than that granted to any other Orientals
by any foreign power and greater than
that enjoyed by any other Ofientals
under their own governments, save the
japanese alone.
The receipts of the postoffice depart
ment for the fiscal year ending June 80
last amounted to 1921 ,S4S, O47.oG. an
increase of S10,216,s53.S7 over the pre-.
ceding year, the largest increase known
in the history of the postal service.
The magnitude of this increase will
best appear from the fact that the en-
tire postal receipts for the year 1860
amounted to but $S,51S,067. Rural
free delivery service is no longer in the
experimental stage; is has become
fixed policy.

cattle, aggregating at least 1900 ami
mails, are now under quarantine in
Massachusetts. Several herds were
Guaranteed in Vermont yesterday and
III Rhode Island several places have
been found where the disease has APP
peared. What to do with all these ami
mails is the question of the hour The
milk cannot be used, to allow the ami
mails to live will prolong the presence of
the disease, and if they are killed the
question arises, what shall be done with
the beef? According to DR.. Bennett it
was never known that the disease was
conveyed to man through the meat but
certainly there will be prejudice
against it on the market and possibly
some danger from injudicious handling
DIR. Salmon. head of the United States
bureau of animal industry, will decide
these questions. He is on the way to
Boston and with him, or soon after,
will come an army of veterinary sur
geons. Everything possible is being
done in advance by the local authori-
ties, so that when DR.. Salmon comes he
can see at a glance what is needed and
go to work without losing any time.
Some provisional plans will be laid be.
fore him by DR.. Bennett, all worked
out in detail, for his acceptance, moditi.
cation or rejection, but it may be stated
on good authority that whatever is an.
dertaken will be done thoroughly, no
matter what it may cost, and the ex
penses may have to be borne by the
federal government.
