WHAT WILL wRIGHT7s POLICY

Now that 1t is settled that Gov. Taft
is to leave the Philippines and that
he is to be succeeded by Gen. Wright
there is considerable speculation as
| to what the policy of the latter will
be with regard to the Americans who
| are residents of the islands. AS is well
known there is a large number of
Americans there who are not connect
ed with the army and have no con-
nection with the administration. They
are mainly a disappointed crowd and
have only bitter words for the adj
ministration of Gov. Taft, because of
his policy that the philippines are
for the Filipinos." They think they
should have all of the best Offices and
be permitted to grab the lands, mines
and franchises that have any value.
That they have not been permitted to
do this has made them enemies of the
Taft administration.
Now the question is, will Gen.
Wright adhere to the policy by which
Gov. Taft has been guided? 1t has
been intimated that he wouldn't; that
being Southerner he hasn't as much
respect for men of colored skins as
Gov. Taft has, and that he will have
very little use for them. Evidently
those who want to get rid of Gen.
Wright are throwing out suggestions
of this sort. They know probably
that he will adhere closely to the
course pursued by Gov. Taft. and,
hence, would like to get rid of him
and have put into his place some such
man as were most OF the carpet bag
governors of the Southern states dur
ing the reconstruction period.
Gen. Wright can be depended upon
to see to it that the Filipinos are dealt
with justly and are given all they
are entitled to. That they ought to
have the Offices and the franchises
there is no doubt The country is
theirs There is no purpose on the
part of the United States to permit
a lot of adventures to rob them of
it. Simply because Gen. Wright is
Southerner it doesn't follow that he
doesn't know how, and will lack the
inclination, to do what is right in deal
ing with the little brown men of the
Philippines.
If the offices are given to the Fill
pinos it is probable the Philippines,
administration will be freer from scam
dals than it would he if they were
filled with Adventures from the United
States. Indeed, it would be a good
thing for this country if Americans
were not encouraged to seek official
positions in the islands. There have
been no scandals of importance in the
Philippines-such scandals as there
were in Cuba--and the reason is
probably that the offices have been
filled, as a rule, with Filipinos.

why the widOwer Loved Her.

A lady from Alexandria, Va, visit
ing in Philadelphia quite recently, says
the Philadelphia Telegraph, told an
anecdote of her retiring cook which is
good enough to be told again:
Myra, the colored cook, gave notice
to Mrs. Richardson of her intention to
leave at the end of the week. Mrs. r.
highly priced the cooks abilities in the
culinary line, and proceeded to inter-
view her in an effort to learn the rea-
son for her departure. The following
conversation ensued:
"Myra, are you not satisfied with
the wages and the home I give you?''
Yes, Mis- Richurson, 1 allus bin

that brought to bear by the English

OF Miss Bee Drew, John Drew's

her childhood she asked her father how
often a certain paper, the Daily -,
appeared, says the Boston Post.
THE paper is called the daily, isn't
it," Mr.. Drew asked.
Yes" said the young girl.
Then mustn't it, of necessity, appear
every day?"

Drew.

Undertakers often show business zeal
that marks them as hustlers. The pair
of negro undertakers of Charleston who
fought over a corpse in the effort to
see who should bury it probably hold
the record. Though our dispatch did
not say, it is to be hoped that neither
of the men was permitted to take
charge of the body.

Our Atlanta dispatches say that a
Florida woman has promised to sell
her home in that state, which cost
her 5000, and give the proceeds to
the Christian and Missionary alliances.
1t is not stated, but it would be in
teresting to know if that is the only
home she has and if she would be
left without means to buy another.
If such is the case, such sacrifice
should not be accepted.

If all Southern women were as cour-
ageous and as capital pistol shots as
Mrs. w. H. Irwin of Austell, who fired
on an intruder in her home, they would
enjoy grea ter immunity from ruffians.
Most, or many, women feel a dread of
firearms, and the very idea of practic-
ing with a pistol frightens them. Yet
there are many Southern girls and
women who oan use pistol well.

The only way the story of the mon

for those who claim they saw it to
catch it and put it on exhibition. I'm
til they do that they may expect to
be advised to drink another brand. Odd,
anyway, how whisky acts. Get snake
bitten and take a lot of it, and you
will get cured. Take a lot of it an
other time, and you will see snakes. 1t

Some operator. working powerful
transmitter on shore during the yacht
race last Tuesday, began sending
snatches Of poetry, bursts of profanity
and collections of obscenity out into
the atmosphere. These got all mixed
up with the messages that were being
sent to the shore from the course of
the yachts. The result was that a lot
of meaningless gable reached the
shore stations. and they could not tell
whether the Reliance or Shamrock III
was winning. About the most nauti-
cal message that they could unravel
from the tangled skein that came in
to them was the Wreck of the Hes
perus." This had been fired at them
by the shore transmitter. Two former
races had been reported well by the
wireless companies. Representatives of
the Marconi and DeForest companies
declare that the interference was due
to spite. as the president of tele-
graph company had asserted that he
intended to put them out Of business.

Chamber of Commerce, who is on a

that 1t is but question of time when

is but a question of policy. If the
United States want a great navy. they
have every resource from which to
draw to secure one. He then proceeds.

really not to be desired. He considers
that Great Britain has reached her lin

Gov. Terrell has given vent to no
Phillippics against race suicide, yet to
him neighbors turn for aid for the
Virginia man and wife who have just
had triplets added to their household.
Virginia, Tennessee and Georgia being
the names given the infants, it was
probably thought that the Governors
of those states would be glad to see
that their namesakes were literally
provided for. At one time or another
President Roosevelt has expressed SEN
timents that would mark him as a sort
of godfather to this trinity of infant
patriotism. Nothing has been heard re-
Gently of checks sent by the President
to parents who have sought to dispel
his fears of race extinction. Evidently
opportunities to exhibit his apprecia-
ton substantially have been showered
upon the President in a way to make
him realize that even a $4,000 salary
would be full of holes if he should try
to add to the JOY of all parents of lit
tie Theodores. In the case of the Vir-
ginia triplets he would probably gladly
yield to the doctrine of states rights.

During the noon hour, when the

little old woman rushed in front of
car that had just started after taking
on passengers.
The conductor rang the bell, fearing
the woman would be caught in the
crush of vehicles, and the car stopped
so suddenly that the one following
bumped into it.
Reaching out to help the woman on
the car, the conductor was not a little
"jarred" TO see her stop near the car
and address a young man who was on
the platform.
