WESTERN METHODS IN LUZON.
Rabbit Hunting Way of Fighting
the EilfnfnOa.

the FilfpfnOs.
Hunters in the west will be interested
to find that their methods have been
copied by our army in the Philippines.
There Is one district that has been
troubled more than is fair by bandits
and brown Washingtons, and the
army, seeing no better way, has de-
cided on a round up. 1t will do as the
rabbit hunters in Colorado have been
doing. A Gordon of troops inclosing an
area of something like IL square miles
has been created. and this line will
slowly draw inward, the distance be-
tween the men narrowing at every step.
All inhabitants of the inclosed region
will be compelled to retire to the CEN
ter Of the pen, and when the whole
company has been corralled and the
troops are a fairly solid line about it.,
the officers will demand the surren-
der of the thieves and trouble makers.
IF this surrender Is not promptly made
there will be no kill and burn order.
yet There Is d vague IhoS hS AAA .
Devery put it, "there'll be somethin'
didin'."
In dealing with Filipinos we have
discovered no such desperate courage
as is shown by our Indians In their
battles. In one or two engagements
with the red men things like this have
been attempted: but the Indians re-
fused to be meekly driven in. They
stood on their rights and blazed into
the advancing lines with muzzle load
ers, revolvers and any other weapons
they had been able to buy and steal
and the final round up was not made
until the grass had been dewed with
extensive blood. But we can rely on
the tilipinos not to do this. They may
be as willing to kill as the Indians are,
hit they are treacherous and In their
view it is honorable, and 1t Is as GUS
tomary to stab in the back in the dark
as it is to fight face to face In the light.
Suppose, however that our men had
miscalcula, Led the strength of the band
its. Suppose that instead of handful
of men they were rounding up bri-
gade that was falling back to base
of supplies? Well, then there would be
"somethin' didin'," too.

He CHANGES RIVER CoURsEs.-David
Neal, of Fort Calhoun, Neb., Is engaged
in the work of changing the course of
the Missouri river at point near Boon
vile, where the stream threatens the
tracks of the Missouri Pacific railway.
The work is being done under the su-
pervision of the company's engineer.
Mr.. Neal, who is past 6S years DID, is
the inventor of what is known as
"prush rip-rapping." He owns 1,50O
acres of valuable land along the Mis-
souri, river front near Fort Calhoun.
and twelve years ago the current on
his side of the stream commenced to
cut away his land at fearful rate. He
spent considerable money trying to
save his property, and finally figured
it out for himself. He made large cone
shaped wooden frames fifteen feet in
diameter, and these he covered with a
heavy layer Of heavy nails and wire.
When the huge cone was thus covered,
it was rolled into the river and anchor
ed. The result was that it soon filled
with mud This was the first noticea-
BILE impeachment in the big stream. and
the dixie was extended fifty feet into
the water. Within three months time
the channel of the river was thrown to
the opposite side. and land along over
five miles of snore was saved.
That encouraged me to go into the
business" said Mr.. Neal last night.
"and have been in it ever since, doing
work for the government. I have ma
chinery for making the cones, or frames
and if the necessary brush is not handy
l ship it in. I can control any running
stream in the United States. kansas

TROPICS AT OUR DooRs.-Americans
live better, perhaps, than the people
Of any other part of the world. They
are not content with the products Of
their own country, but draw largely
upon the tropics for condiments and
delicacies that add to the pleasures
Of the table. The increase In the con-
tributions of the tropics to the daily
life Of man has been general through
out the countries where prosperity or
an activity in manufacturing and COM
merce is the rule, but 1t seems to be
especially marked in the United States,
which now imports more than $1,00O,-
600 worth of tropical and subtropical
foodstuffs and raw materials every
day in the year.
The increased reliance upon the trop-
les is probably greater, proportionately,
in the United States than In most other
countries, since a much larger share
of our sugar Is drawn from the tropics
than is the case with other, and espe-
cially the European, countries, which
in most cases now produce their own
sugar from beets.
The United States have during recent
years consumed nearly one-half of the
cane sugar Of the world which enters
into international commerce, and more
than one-half Of the coffee of the
world.
In the year just ended the importa-
tions of goods usually considered as of
tropical or sub-tropical production
amounted to $4OO, 900, or considera-
bly, more than s1,OOO,OOO for every day
in the year, including Sundays and hol-
idays, while 80 years ago they amount
ed to but $143, 900 or less than $780,
600 per day.-Cleveland Plain Dealer.
AS TO ERRoRs.-A Massachusetts,
business firm prints this paragraph at
the top of its letter head Errors
we make them; so does every one.
We will cheerfully correct them If you
will write to us. Try to write good ma
turedly If you can, but write to us
anyway. Do not complain to some one
else first or let the matter pass. We
want first opportunity to make right
any injustice we may do" The little
sermon deserves wide audience. Few
people that have not had occasion at
some time in their lives to regret the
sending of a harsh or hasty note Of
complaint. 1t may be necessary to as
sert ones rights in subsequent letters.
but there is no better rule Of cores
pondence than to make the first one
good natured.-Youth's Companion.

Against the Army Canteen.

To the Editor of the Indiana polls Journal
In your issue of the I'd inst. / notice
clipping from the Pittsburg Chronicle-Tele-
graph upon the ubiquitous question, the
Army Canteen" The writer evidently
thinks he states the question in a nutshell
when he says: THE army canteen ques-
ton has resolved itself into this-whether
it is better to allow the sale Of beer within
government reservations under careful re-
strictions, or to forbid its sale therein and
permit the soldiers to go outside and drink
all sorts Of liquors. sold by INSCRIPTIONS
and irresponsible persons, and to fall into
other temptations.

issue with the writer, and deny that such
is the question. Suppose we admit that
saloons Of conducted by subscriptions ir-
responsible persons" they have no right to
a government license) have been allowed
to grow up around the military posts since
abolishing the canteen, and further admit
that drunkenness has increased and dis
cpline suffered, where does the fault lie
and what is the remedy? The Chronicle
Telegraph writer would have us believe
that the cause was abolishing the canteen
and the remedy the restoration of the same
