SECRETARY TAFT'S KEY
NOTE ON PHILIPPINES
Policy Will Be that of the Philip
pines for the Filipinos in Deal
ing with Them.
LAST SPEECH IN LUZON

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29-The Philippines
for the Filipinos will be the keynote Of the
policy of Secretary Taft towards the far
Eastern archipelago. In almost the last
speech he made before leaving the Philip
pines for home he reiterated this keynote
which he first sounded when he was in
augurated Governor of the Philippine
islands. This speech has been published
by the insular government in al. official
form and has just reached the War De-
partment In it Governor Taft declared
that this doctrine did not exclude the en-
enlargement of American enterprise or the
American investment of capital in the Phil
ippines, for the reason that nothing. not
even education a free form of govern
ment, can make more for the elevation
and civilization of the Filipino people than
the investment of American capital in the
material development of these islands"

fear that harvest hands will be scarce this
year, owing to the rush to the lands, Of
the Rosebud reservation, and that exorbi-

unforeseen calamity such as a severe
windstorm of wide extent, can now pre-
vent South Dakota from raising another
bumper crop. Barley and rye have been
rapidly ripened by the extremely hot

hot weather will soon become general In
