AN INTERESTING PARALLEL

Governor W. II. Taft, in his report Of
affairs in the Philippine islands, made
public on January 1, 1899, sayt:
Condition in the Philippines have
made it necessary for the islands to buy
about s~l5,GoO.O00 worth Of food on
which TO live -. The bane OF Philip
pine civilization in the past was ladron-
ian, and the present conditions are
most favorable for it's growth and main
tenance. Were there inducements to
agriculture, we're there prosperous con.
ditions in the country, it would not be
a troublesome matter to deal with; but
when want and famine arc staring the
people in the face, the life Of the free
booter forms to the desperate ind the
weak q very great attraction, The nat
ural discomfort with the government
when suffering is at hand, promoted rs
it has been by the cholera restrictions
and the high prices Of rice and other
commodities, which have been greatly
enhanced by the depreciation OF silver,
might well have caused a new breaking
out OF the resurrection. 1t may be that
as the conditions gro y worse-for they
are likely to do so before they grow bet.
ter-it will be necessary in a province
like Cavitc, where ladronism seems IN
bred in the people, to proclaim martial
law and even to call in the military
finally to suppress it; but it is still
hoped this may be avoided. =. On the
whole there is before us Il year OF the
hardest kind OF work relieving the peo
pie from the hardships and sutferngs
likely to follow the failure OF the rice
crop, and su%ppressing ladronism and
other disturbances due to economic dis
tress.
In his speech at Arlington, May 30.
1902, President Roosevelt said:
Whenever in the Philippines the in
surrectiOn has been definitely and
finally put down, there the individual
Filipino already rnioys such freedom,
such personal liberty under iii rule, ns
he could never even dream Of under the
rule OF an Independent ~Aguinaldian
oligarchy.T
The president. in his speech at Mem
phis, Tenn, November 10, 1902, said:
1The progress of the islands, both in
material well being and as regards
order and justice, has been astounding.
-. The islands have never been as Or
derby, Ls peaceful, or rs prosperous as
now. and in no other Oriental country,
whether ruled by Asiaiics or Europeans
is there anything approaching to the
amount Of individual liberty and OF
self government which our rule has
brought to the Filipinos."
In his annual message to congress ON
December =, 1902. President Roosevelt
said:
Each Filipino cnjoya such rights to
life, liberty, and the pursuit Of happi.
ness "a he has never before known
during the recorded history Of the isl.
ands. . . No policy aver entered into
by the American people has indicated
itself in a more signal manneI than
the policy OF holding the Philippines,
-. Taking the work OF the army and
the civil authorities together, it may
DO questioned whether anywhere else
in modern times the world has seen q
better example Of real constructive
craftsmanship than our peoplr have
given in the Philippine islnnds.--Ex.

TENNIS TOURNAMENT.
Montgomery to Be Represented in New Orleans.


 Commencing next Tuesday, one of the largest tennis tournaments ever held in this section of the country will be held on the courts of the New Orleans Lawn Tennis Club, the championship honors of the entire South. Among the entries already made are teams from San An tonic, New Orleans, Mobile, Memphis Atlanta and Montgomery.
 The Montgomery Tennis and Golf Club will be represented by W. T. Seibels and l.. w. Tyson, both of whom have always made excellent showings in the tourna- ments held in this city and Atlanta and who may be counted on to uphold the reputation of the local club in every sense of the word.
 An article in one of the New Orleans papers refers to MT Tyson as one of fhe strongest entries, for singles, no doubt based on the hotly contested match in the semi-fnals of the tournament in this city two years ago between he and Mir Eskrigg, probably the strongest player in the Crescent City. Seibels and one of the fastest teams in doubles in this section.
 The recent continued rains have very materially interfered with the practice of the local players, and the further fact that the matches in New Orleans are played on turf courts. may, to some ex- tent handicap the Montgomery team, but their friends in this and other cities are sanguipe in the belief that they will at least De heard from in the final round.
 The matches will begin on Tuesday at noon. and the local team will leave for New Orleans on Monday morning.
