AGREE ON PHILIPPINE BILL
Come TO UnderstRnding as
to Action.

WASHINGTON, June 30.-The conferees
Of the two houses of congress on the
Philippine civil government bill have prac-
tieally reached an agreement. They prob
ably will present their report to the sen
ate during the afternoon.
The understanding provides for the
elimination Of the coinage question from
the bill, thus postponing that question
another session for independent action.
sy> senate conferees held out for their
n, standard provision and the house
=, Just as firm in their contention
foi ~ standard.
The se provision for a territorial
legislatu. . retained in modified form.
The democratic members Of the conference
were not present at the forenoon session,
but 1t is not believed that they will make
any effort to change the agreement.
Many of the provisions Of the two bills
concerning currency, however are retained,
including the senate regulation for subsid-
iary coinage. There is, however, no effort
10 the present agreement to FIX the money
standard That Is left for the future.
The house provision for legislative as
sembly is amende. so as to require that its
establishment shall be preceded by census.
Two years after this census the president Is
authorized to direct through the Philippine
commission the election of a legislature, II
in bis opinion the conditions Justify such a
course.
The house provision for the sale of the
Philippine public lands was accepted, but
$500 acres is the largest area to be dis
posed OF to any one person or combination.
The Philippine civil government bill, as
finally agreed upon today, provides for a
Philippine legislature of two houses, one
the Philippine commission and the other
an assembly elected by the natives, except
the Moros and Pagans. But this legislature
is not to be created until after a census
has been taken and a condition Of general
peace and good order shall have prevailed
for two years. The legislature is to elect
two commissioners to represent the Islands
in Washington. The powers Of the legsla-
ture are defined and an extended bill oil
rights sets forth the individual rights OF
citizens and their protection against un-
Just laws.
Authority is given to issue bonds for
the purchase of the friar lands, and when
purchased these become part Of the public
domain. The public lands are to be open
to homesteaders. similar to the American
system and to prevent corporations from
absorbing the lands, corporations holdings
are limited to 1,024 hectares, or $500 acres
Corporations also are strlngently regulated
In holding mining and agricultural lands
The money standard and the permanent
money system are left for future settle
ment. The banking system is also post
poned. Provision is also made for sub
sidiary and minor coins. Authority is giver
to issue bonds for harbor and other i'm
provements.

enactment of a law regulating the

tana is at present the dumping
ground for all the low grade oil that
the Standard Oil company is, pre-
vented from disposing of in other
states. Nine-tenths of the oil that
is used in the state is OF such low
grade that it could not be sold in
an other state. Such oil burns with
smoky yellow glare and is posi-
lively dangerous, because it volatizes
at such low temperature that ex-
plosions are apt to occur.
In the cities where electricity is
used for lighting purposes the ques-
ton is not one of Importance, be-
cause but little kerosene is used, but
IS per cent OF the people are still
obliged to use kerosene, and they
should be protected from the greed
of the Standard Oil monopoly. 1t is
bad enough to be obliged to pay three
prices for oil without being compelled
to use low grade stuff that is danger
Gus to both life and health.

AN IRREPARABLE LOSS.

AS a little child falling to sleep, c.
on Thanksgiving morning at half
past eleven o'clock Although com
paratively young man, Mr.. Conrad
accomplished more in the brief span
of his life than many men of mature
years who have been called great.
He was the real founder of Kali
ispell, and coming here as the repre-
sentative of the townsite company
he was obliged to shoulder the I'M
popularity which that company en-
gendered by reason of business riv-
airy with individuals. By sheer WORT
and integrity that popularity was
overcome and at the time of his
death Mr.. Conrad numbered as his
sincere friend almost ever person in
Flathead county.
A pioneer among pioneers, Mr..
Conrad was one of the foremost in
wrestling northern Montana from the
hands of the savage and giving it to
the husbandman for the building of
happy homes and cheerful firesides.
Coming to Montana a poor boy, he
gathered for himself and his family
princely fortune, anu he wronged
no man in gathering it, for every dol
lar was created by his own industry
and ability, and none of it came from
the wreck of any other fortune. But
it is not as a founder of cities or a
gatherer of wealth that c. E. Conrad
will be remembered by his friends,
but rather as devoted husband, a
loving father and a warm and loyal
friend, and had he left no estate nor
any achievement in the world of bust
ness his loss to the community and to
his friends would be none the less,
nor would it be less keenly felt.
Words are barren things at best
and they are inadequate to express
the sympathy that is felt by the en-
tire community for the noble wife
who has suffered more than words
can tell, but he who reckons even the
falling sparrow will provide strength
for the trials that are sent and the
legion of friends left by Mr. Conrad
will not forget his widow and chill
dren.
