SINGLE OFFICERS IN DEMAND.
They Are Preferred Because of the
Crowded Condition of Uncle
Sans Military Posts,

The overcrowded condition of the
residential quarters of the various
military posts in this country, due
to the return of regiments from the
Philippines, is embarrassing the mil
itary authorities, reports the Wash
ington Star. The trouble is not so
much with respect to housing the of
fcers themselves as with the men,
bers of their families. The situation
has reached a point where bachelors
are favored over benedicts in assign
ment to stations with limited living
accommodations where such discrim-
ination is possible. And it is even as
serted that where there is no other
choice between two young candidates
for commission it is bestowed on
the single man in preference to one
who is married. Even then it is rec
ognized, however, that the bachelor
appointed is not likely to continue
long in single blessedness. The pow
ers that be admit that their author
ity does not reach to the extent of
interfering with subsequent affairs
of the heart. It is made plain that
there is no official prejudice against
matrimony-but just at the present
the military posts would afford bet
ter accommodations for more officers
If it were not for the family attach
ments of some of them. Congress
provided literally for the army in
this respect during the session just
closed, but It will be many months
before the additional quarters author
lied are ready for use.

TAXES WERE TOO ONEROUS.
An Old PennsyIvRnian who Thought
the Government Was Pressing
Him Too Hard.

From Pottsville comes a story OF
an old chap who is proud to describe
himself as the original anti-expansion-
list, says the Philadelphia Times. Soon
after the breaking out Of hostihties
with Spain and the passage of the war
revenue act by congress he began to
crate against the new taxes as an ex-
hibition of federal tyranny. He would
fairly froth at the mouth as he de-
nounced the war tariff and would
darkly hint at the possibility of lat
ter day Patrick Henry and a new
awakening Of the people to sense of
the injustice. A severe cold laid him
low and his doctor, finding him asleep
one day and thinking little blister
ing would do him good, applied a fine
large mustard plaster to the old fell
lows back. The burning, singing
bite of the heated mustard awoke the
crusty patient, who rolled over in
agony for a minute or two, clapped one
hand behind him, felt the plaster and
frantically tearing 1t off roared:
"Has it come to this that an old
man like me can't even die peaceably
in his bed without having the govern
ment come along and clap revenue
STAMP on him2"

PILGRIMING TO EOLYWELL.
ing Relief at Miraculous
Spring in Wales.

Anyone who thinks that supersti.
ton is no more in Great Britain
ought to pay visit to Holywell, in
north Wales. The little Welsh town
is overrun in the summer by an army
of sufferers from all sorts of dis
eases who come there to be made
whole by the miraculous" powers
of the water in the spring of st.
Winifred, says a London paper.
The "holy WE'LL" from which the
place gets its name, has been
famous throughout the entire coun-
try for centuries. The legend runs
that st. Winifred lived near the
spring and endowed it with the pow
err of relieving all ailments, and ever
since history began to be writ in
Wales hosts of people, most of them
Roman Catholics, have journeyed
from all parts in the hope of being
cured of their respective maladies.
The spring is surrounded by a
small chapel which is supposed to
have been built by Margaret, mother
of King Henry. The candidate for
cure enters and kneels on a stone
ledge beside the water, and then, ac-
cording to the cherished legend,
whatever allied him once thereafter
ails him no more. Anyone who Wis
its the little chapel at almost any
time in the year, will find it full of
the lame, the halt and the blind,
most of them people of the poorer
classes, and the villagers of Holywell
tell of endless miraculous cures that
have taken place before their aston
ished eyes.

FILIPINO CAPACITY.
Mistaken Impressions Regarding the
Mental Capabilities of the
Tagalog People.

Lack of capacity to develop mentally
IS frequent charge against the Fill
Ipinos, says James A. Leroy, in At
lantic. 1t is forever put forward by
friar writer's; one comes to believe
finally that this is to excuse the fail
ure to advance the natives further.
Just how deficient the past education
of the Fihpinos has been, just how
narrow and medieval has been the
atmosphere of thought, one cannot
realize until he has come into direct
contact with its evidences. Often the
best educated Filipinos cannot them
selves realize it, The fact is, no one
has the right gratuitously to assume
that the Filipino is purely initiative,
that he lacks the logical, mathematical
qualities of mind, and that, while
bright when young, he soon reaches
his limit and can go no further. He is
entitled to honest trial, and the entire
deficiency of past instruction is
summed up when it is said that he
has never yet had it. Pending a thor
ough trial of the new system of educa-
ton, beginning, as it does ct the bot
tom and working up gradually, no one
has the right to be positive as to the
capacity or incapacity of the Filipino.
l have in mind one Filipino who,
though in other lines exhibiting per-
fectly his Manila college training in
circumlocution and scholastic chop
logic, will, on economic matters, with
in his scope, reason as closely and with
as great a devotion to practical exam
pies as any devotee of the research
method. He certainly never got this
quality from his training. In fact,
a real acquaintance with Filipinos,
such an acquaintance as will finally
lead to a frank exchange of senti-
ments, corrects various preconceived
notions. 1t is frequently asserted, for
instance, that the Tagalog has no
sense of humor; quite the reverse is
true.

The Ninth District.
Old Dominion Sun.

Old Dominion Sun.
The Republican Congressional Com
mittee for the 9th district of Virginia, met
at Bristol, Va, on the 9th and unanimously
determined to call convention to meet
at Abingdon, September 3rd, to nominate
a candidate for Congress. There are a
number of eligible Republicans in the
Ninth to select from for the honor OF the
nomination.
The Ninth is Republican district on
fair vote and count, and this will be clear
" demonstrated We hope in November
next. The exposures made before the
congressional committee to which was sub
mitted the contest of Walker VS.. Rhea,
was such as to disgust all men who desire
honesty in elections, and conspicuously
established that Mr.. Rhea was declared
elected by methods offensive to every fair
minded man in the State and grossly un-
just to the Republicans, In fact. Mr.. Rhea
was not legally elected at all, as the
record plainly shows, but by some subtle
mental process or ethical alchemy, the
committee reached the conclusion that
while the election laws and their ex'
ecution were freighted with fraudulent
intent, the seat was awarded to Rhea. The
contestant, Walker, it is true, died during
the consideration of the case, and to have
decided against Rhea would have created
a vacancy in the representation from that
district, but this should not have infuen-
ced the committee to perpetrate wrong
against the Republicans of the Ninth. A
vacancy should have been declared and
the matter referred back to the people.
1t would have been better to Fave had no
representation than to have one tainted
all over with fraud and precedent estab-
lished to condone fraudulent methods and
thus encourage gross wrong doing on the
part of election officers. The facts devel-
oped in this contest ought to be forceful
argument in favor of the Republican can
didate and give him such majority as
would leave no..room for a contest from
his Democratic opponent.
