Another Independent and distinct race is
supposed to be descended from Indian Sc
poys who formed part of British com
mand during the military occupation of
Manila in 1863 and remained in the country
after the troops withdrew. They are Chris
tians and are the most lawabiding and in
dustrious people In the island. Their fea-
lures and boards are similar to those of the
SikhS.
There are several other wild tribes and
bands Of common Malayan origin, having

furnish the larger part Of the population In
Luzon. and the Moros or Mahommedans
(for the two words have the same meaning),
who occupy and control the southern
islands. During centuries of association,
the Tagalogs not only acquired whatever
civilization the -Spaniards were able to i'm
part, but intermarried with them extern
sively and furnished the basis Of the pres
ent population. While Spanish has been
the language of the courts, commerce and
official communications for $50 years. the
Tagalogs have retained their mother tongue
and have considerable literature In fiction,
poetry and dramatic dialogues. Three news
papers are published in the Tagalog Ian
guage in Manila today, and Tagalog plays
are regularly produced In theaters of this
city. When we speak OF a Filipino, we
mean a Tagalog or a mestfzo Of Tagalog
and Spanish blood. There are several dia-
lects of the Tagalog language. and repre-
sentatives of that race living In one part of
the island often find 1t difficult to under
stand and communicate with their neigh

that all of the uncivilized tribes must ac-

submitted, and their descendants also, were
to be forever exempt from forced labor and
