EDUCATION IN THE PHILIPPINES
Former School Superintendent Re-
counts Progress Under American Rule.

dispatch from ST. Louis last night
says: At today's session of the National
Educatio Association E. b. Bryan of
Bloomington, Ind, former superintendent
of education in the Philippines, talked on
education in the Philippines He said he
wanted 1t known that the Igorrotes. the
Moros and the Negritos not Filipinos.
'"They do not resemble the Filipino" he
said "ethnologically, historically or in any
other point, excepting that they all occupy
various portions of the Philippine archipel-
ago. I very much fear the visitors TO the
exposition will visit the Philippine reser-
walton simply to see the Igorrote dance.
and will not enter the educa tional exhibit
or interest themselves in the educational
development of the inhabitants of those
far-off islands
He described the plans carried out by the
expectation of educators from the United
States to the Philippines and reviewed the
great results accomplished by three years
work among the natives. After centuries
of speaking Spanish and living in ignorance
the natives were given opportunities by the
United States government to rise above tho
low level that had for so long chara ctertzed
their existence, and five years after Adj
mrai Dewey's victory In Manila bay not
less than 300. 600 natives of the Philippine
archipelago speak and write the English
language and have made vast strides In Ia.

LONDON ALCOHOL EVIL.
Women and Children Take Drinks
 in the Bakers shops.

m Lne bakeTS S0OPS.
 London St. James Gazette.
 A new encouragement to feminine vic
 tins of the drink habit has arisen in re- cent years in London. and has become such glaring scandal that at last 1t Is Ireceiving the attention of the Confection- CTS Union and also the licensing trade. There are in London scores, of pastry cook shops holding licenses for the sale of wines and spirits, and at which scenes more regrettabie than are witnessed in
 many public houses take place daily These bakers shops" are patronized all most entirely by women, who go there to consume drink ab libitum under the gulse of buying bun. They have more pernicious influence on the female mind than the much-criticised grocer's license. They capture women who would scorn to enter a public house. or shrink from having drink charged as tea" on their grocers bill. The ''baker's" is less notorious; he does not parade the fact of his license. its existence even is little known to the general public, and so q woman with a weakness for intoxicating drinks, secure in the belief that her ob- feet Is unknown. enters the shop to drink, for a bun or piece of pastry is the limit of her actual refreshment.
 Tn the West End these bakery pubs are common ana lleiT dDu5S udB grown infamous.f hlbticans feel strongly on the matter. bl -dse under more favorable and privileged conditions these shops com pete with them. and yet at the same time have developed into businesses worse, if anything. than the regularly licensed house. since the customers are only wo- men and children. The organ of the candy trades, The Confectioners' Union, is taking up the fight for the reputation Of the non-licensed section of their trade.
 "We have long recognized the growing scandal of the thing. and am not sur pT1sed that public attention has at last been called to it." remarked an officer Of the Church of England Temperance Un- ion There Is really no restriction on the customers, and women sit for hours drinking wines or spirits without interfer- ence. Another serious phase of the ques- ton is that these women are frequently aooompanied by children. l have seen women come from these places the worse for drink-women who would blush to be seen entering a public house. It is a diff n, ,ilt problem to deal with. however. These confectioners find it easy to secure uc enses. The authorities cannot see what evil there can be in an innocent baker's ship, and it IS hard to convince them But think action will soon be taken"

At the evening service. Rev MT. Craw- ford found his text in St. John fl, 14-15, and Numbers xxi, 6-11.
 The subject of his sermon was: "The brazen serpent. type of Christ"
 The three points brought out and dis cussed by MT. Crawford in his sermon were:
 First-The people of Israel bitten by ser pents.
 6econd-The brazen serpent on a pole, a cure for a bitten Israelite.
 Third-A look at the brazen serpent cures the bite
 The parallel facts drawn from these passages and from his text were:
 First-Sinners poisoned by sin.
 Second-Jesus Christ on the cross-a cure for every sinner.
 Third-Faith in Jesus Christ saves the sinner.
 The services will begin promptly at 8 o'clock tonight, and everybody is cor dially invited to attend this weeks revival meeting.

The Conner Comedy.

Baldwin Times.
 The legislature of Alabama passed a law at the last session giving to the rail road commission absolute mandatory powers to regulate the railroads of the State.
 Our readers, we are quite sure, vii. agree with us that the best interests of the State could not be subserved by the election of a radical partizan to a posi- ton in which he will have 1t in his power to hamper, embarrass and cripple these great arteries of commerce. In crippling ttese industrial agencies. any intelligent man must know that he will thereby tn- lure every class of our citizens.
 Alabama is in its infancy in railroad dtvelopment The interests of the rail- roads and the people are mutual and in- ter-dependent. It behooves all of us to do all in our power to foster and upbuild existing railroad lines. and to promote and encourage the building of others, un- til >our State shall be perfect network O. railroads. similar to the States of New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana and others.
 By reference to a map of the States mentioned, as compared with a map ot Alabama. 1t will be readily seen that our railroad mileage Is insignificant, and fl the people of Alabama wish to have eN cry portion of the State penetrated oy great railroad lines, it would certainly seem that a radical man like MT. B. B. Conner should not be placed. In charge with mandatory powers. to harass and hamper these institutions and inevitably throw them into bankruptcy. With their fall the State must suffer.
 To believe MT. Comer"s arguments is t) believe that we are in a bad way in- decd. We believe that the efforts to de- Iude the voters of Alabama will be frowned upon by the people of the State and they will not elevate any man to a position in which his selfish prejudice nay have an opportunity to manifest it. self to the detriment of all of us.

 MT. Crawford win have no assistance during these services, but will himself preach each night during the week at o'clock.
 The growth of the Cumberland Presby- terian Church in Montgomery has been remarkable The Church was organized with some fifteen members in the fall of 1901.- Now they are a band of vigorous workers. 150 strong, and own one of the prettiest and most conveniently arranged churches in the city.

not been exaggerated was amply proved by MT. Braithwin, the manager of one Of the largest West End bakeries, who said that fully 90 per cent. of those patronis- ing the licensed pastry cooks were women and children. Pastry was purely second ary, and the receipts on drinks far ex- ceeded other ''takings''; in fact, he said. pithily, ''buns filled the windows. but whisky filled the tables. Women came straight from the draper's to the bakers. and sit drinking-they eat very little wine or spirits as long as they please. It Is to be condemned on all grounds. These places are working far more evil than public houses where they exist They do not work under restrictions, are a greater temptation from their respec- tabllity and sham appearance, and are direct inducement to deception and ex- cess"

(Communicated.) The R. R. Commission.

The Hustler.
 The thrusting into politics the railroad interests of the State is, in our humble opinion, TO forward step in the purity Of our politics. But no man need cen sure the railroads of Alabama for the desire to protect their interests from an avcwed enemy.
 The truth is any man of ambition who wil. pose as the friend of the merchant and of the people may ride into power as a railroad commissioner when he is as bribable. as corrupt, as tricky as man was ever made. It is ne safeguard to the people. Who viii be benefited by Comer's election. Not one man who walks between the handles of a blow. If the merchant be benefited the people would never know it, the results would be so insignificant. That which appeals most to us is the fact that Alabama will no longer be considered a safe field for the investment of capital We need hundreds of miles of new railroads. Will we get them? The truth is the grasping greed of the man who sells flour and other necessities of life to the farmer who mortgages him all he has and all his crop at high rate of interest is the cause of his backing Conner. And he is tho man who points his finger at honest toll and says, T am furnishing you! Vote for Conner" That is no bribery o'l no! But 1t is a species of intimida- ton, "bossism'' of the lowest kind. On this the friends of Conner depend for his election.

The Greensboro Record.
 The first and eighth pages of this issue is devoted to the correspondence between Mir. W. E. Knox and MT. B. B. Conner, who Is candidate for the presidency of the Railroad Commission of the State of Alabama. This correspondence goes to show that Mir. Conner in more than one instance attempted to defraud the rail- reads out of their lawful rights as com mon carriers. A careful reading of this correspondence Is invited by our readers. MT Conner aspires to become a judge of the rights of the railroads and of the people. If he could deliberately attempt fraud upon the railroads, as this cor- respondence goes to show. could he be an unprejudiced and an impartial judge when the question arose between these roads and the people of the State, whose interests alike he would be called upon to decide7 The people of the State are t0 choose for themselves, and by that de- eision must they abide.

NATIONAL WARFARE AGAINST SALOONS

While most other states tax the man
who runs saloon from $500 to S20O per
year Ohio assesses him only $3.50, and il
he diseontinues business at any time during
the year he is granted a rebate
In most states there are rigid restric-
tons as to the place where a saloon Is
conducted and the character of the man
who conducts it, especially in the point of
his obedience TO law. In Ohio there is
practically no restriction.
saloon may be conducted next to a
church schoohouse or home. Many are
