SLAVERY IN THE PHILIPPINES.

Two girls were sold into slavery In this
city a few days ago by Georgia Torres.
one gringing one hundred and fifty pesos
and the other one hundred pesos.
The thirteenth amende ment TO the con-
stitution Of the United States declares
that involuntary servitude shall not be
permitted. that the stares and stripes
shall stannd for Virtue. Liberty and In
dependence" but the American flag con-
tinues to float over slavery in these is
lands
A numebr of case sahve been reported
from time 10 time where young girls have
been bought and sold and where they
have been sold even BY their own parents
into slavery and life OF shame in order
20 satisfy small claim Of some debtor.
Girls can be bought in the provinces
at an Insignificant figure. and there are
a numebr OF human vultures in this city
that are engaged IN the business Of buy
ing and selling girls. something that
should receive the attention Of the autho-
rities.-Manila Cable News.

that it is insincere, or unimportant. or

Last year live bird shooting at the traps
was practically made illegal IN the state
Of New York by the repeal OF the law
which specifically sanctioned IL. The Is
sue had been carried over from the leg
islature OF the previous year. The anti
pigeon shooters won.
Last year the New Jersey legislature
had the matter OF live-bird shooting al
the traps under consideration. but no
decided action was taken on II. This year
the anti-pigeon shooters had an anti-pig-
con shooting bill before the New Jersey
legislature almost az soon as the session
began. and it has now progressed 50 FAR

which has IT in charge
Several other states have the matter
under consideration more or less formally.
or Informally, and are likely at any
time to prohibit il.
So long as the trapshooters remain un-
organized politically or as trapshooters.
they cannot hope 10 make good their con-
tention when opposed by organized bodies.

press.
The history of past struggles on this
issue shows that the trapshoOters do not
consider the matter important enough

many Of them. who approve OF II, would
not care 10 make II matter of public
discussion at all as while they believe
in the sport as being good. they do not
consider II important enough TO make OF
II a political issue. II IL is prohibited,
there are still many other forms OF

Without any formal organizations or

cANADA,s HOPE AND CAUTION.

Much attention has been attracted in
Canada and in England by the remarks
made by its general manager at the re-
cent annual meeting of the Canadian
Bank of Commerce, held at Toronto. The
statement is well worth reprinting here
/ in part, because of the light it throws
on Conditions beyond this country's north
ern border. and, indirectly, on conditions
in this country:
In trying to estimate the commercial
position of our country at the moment
the strongest and most universal feeling.
/ doubtless, is that we are in the full tide
of prosperity. 1t is safe to say that even
the very sanguine are more anxious to
be assured of a continuance of present
conditions that of any other further i'm
provement. Indeed, the fear is growing
that by undue speculation or by pushing
even legitimate expansion too far We are
likely to break the charm and bring on
the discomforts of a period of debt-pay.
ing and liquidat ton. \ year ago it seemed
as if the speculative element was more
than temporarily checked but the spring
and summer brought stronger forces than
ever into play and Stock Exchange spec

in Canada The punishment administered
in October and the following months has
been so sharp that we can but hope
that such dearly bought lessons will do
some good in our community in the fu-
ture.
1t is not easy, perhaps not possible. TO
draw a definite line between legitimate
enterprise and gambling in securities. But
this much is clear. that the buying of
stocks on a margin by people who have
no source from which 10 make good a
loss except the margin is one Of the most
foolish forms of gambling. and the public
cannot be too often warned against 1t.
As TO the volume of speculation Incl
dent to the promotion of companies, only
the pressure of the unfavorable money
market is likely 70 check it. as We have
good crops and an expanding volume OF
business What is really necessary Is
that the public should exercise greater
discretion, and should try. at least. to
avoid the many enterprises which are
clearly not founded on conservative ex-
pectations of profit. But whether new in
dustrial ventures are essentially sound or
not. the supply of money available 10
carry the shares in such ventures will
sooner or later be used UP unless the
volume of fiotation is lessened.
