will be able to stand, if not entirely
alone, yet in some such relation to the
United States as Cuba now sttpas,"
and because Secretary Taft in remarks
before the House committee on Ways
and Means used language that led
many to believe that the administration
was lukewarm on the policy of retain
ing the Philippines.
1t was pointed out at the time by
some influential newspapers that the
remarks of the President and the Sea-
rotary of War were unfortunate, be-
cause susceptible of being misinter-
preted to the disturbance of the Fill
pinos and to the injury of the business
interests of the islands.
The remarks were misinterpreted by
men in public life and by business men.
Among others, John N. Blair, a bust
ness man of New York city, wIote the
Secretary of War asking for a definite
statement of the policy of the admins
tration, in view of a prevailing impress
sion that it was the purpose of the adj
ministration to give independence to
the Filipinos in the next four years.
This impression, Mr.. Blair stated, had
raised a doubt as to the future of the
islands and had produced great tim
idity about investments in the Philip
pines.
In his reply Secretary Taft said; THE
policy of the administration is the in
definite retention of the Philippines"
This is clear and definite, and covers
the ground so far as this administra-
ton is concerned. But Secretary Taft
adds:
What shall be done in the future
when the people have reached a condi-
ton where they can be safely trusted
with their own government is a ques-
ton which will doubtless have to be
settled by another genration. -
Should the Philippine people, when fit
for self-government, demand independ-
ence l should be strongly in favor of
giving it to them, and I have no doubt
that the American people of the next
generation would be of the same opin-
ion. 1 think it much more likely, how
ever, that after the Philippine people
shall have been associated with the
American people for a generation or
more and shall have tasted the pros
perity they will find behind the national
tariff wall they will prefer a relation to
America like that of Canada or Aus
tralia to England. to one of absolute in
dependence.

ARTHUR JENNINGS ENCOUNTERS
TWO HIGHWAYMEN ON SEC
OND STREET.
One Yves Short and the Other TALL
Victim Relieved of 81 and Told to
Keep Going.

Arthur Jennings, a pRRman, en-
ployed in a local printing establish
ment, was held up by two men at the
corner of Second and Walnut streets
about $3.50 o'clock last night and rob-
bed of 81. Mr.. Jennings rooms at the
corner of Chestnut and Second streets
and was on his way home when the
holdup occurred. AS he passed Eagan
avenue he noticed a short man steI
into the street in front Of him. AT
in behind him and the three proceeded
on out Second street. Mr.. Jennings
thought nothing Of the occurrence un-
til Walnut street was reached, when
the man in front suddenly turned
and started back toward him.
Drawing a big revolver. the short
man commanded Mr.. Jennings to ele-
vate his hands. Throw up your
hands or die," was the way the high
wayman put it. A second later the
tall man behind rushed up and grabbed
bed Jennings, and while the short
man intimidated him with the re-
yolyer the tall stranger rapidly went
through mis- pockets. Seven dollars
that Mr.. Jennings had put away for
Christmas were deftly transferred into
the tall mans pockets. After search
ing him the tall man ordered Jennings
to clear out, intimating that the live
lier ne stepped the better it would be
for his health. The highwaymen then
turned and sped down Walnut street
and through the Lincoln school mouse
Yards Mr.. Jennings attempted to CAL
up the police, but the telephone was
out of order and as it was too far back
to town he decided to let the matter
drop. as there was little likelihood OF
the robbers being captured.

NEW YORK. Dec. 22.-Stephen M.
Smith, assistant treasurer, and
Charles A. Preller. auditor Of the Mu.
tual, were witnesses in the insurance

Vanderpool, chief examiner of the
department, was recalled. He testi-
fed that he knew the Mutual was not
making reports of profits and losses
from sales of securities, but he did
not think it was necessary for the
company to report such matters to
the department.
Hughes suggested to Vanderpoof
that the Mutuars method OF making
reports concealed the marking down
of book values of the company's real
estate and the concealment Of profits
from the sale of securities. The wit
ness said this was true, but that
other companies resorted to similar
juggling He mentioned the New

PACIFIC AND THE
NORTH COAST FIGHT FOR
STRATEGIC POSITIONS.
Backing of the North Coast-Not
the Northwestern.

The number of deeds being filed
with the auditor of Klickitat county
by which the owners along the banks
of the Columbia river sell rights of
way to the Wallula Pacific and the
Portland & Seattle railway compan-
les indicate that the fight for the
fight for rights of way between these
rival concerns is now at it's height.
So keen is the contest that at places
the two lines form almost a continual
railroad, sections of which alternate
ly belong to the Wallula Pacific, be-
lieved to represent the Hartman in
terests, and the Portland & Seattle;
known more familiarly as the North
Bank road, is the report that comes
from Goldendale.
The latter was the first in the field
for right of way, and worked in a sys-
tematic and thorough manner. The
Wallula Pacific people, on the other
hand, went direct to strategic points,
jumping ahead to pick up the line in
canyons and places where cost of con-
struction is heavy, and leaving more
level country for later negotiations, if
any are decided on.
Rival Owns Land.
At one point in this county, it is
rumored, the Hill line had already Sc
cured an agreement with a farmer
and completed construction work val
ued at s25OO when the Wallula Pacific
agent came on the scene. He discover
ed that the farmer based his claim on
a soldiers additional homestead filing,
and at once purchased a relinquish-
ment of this, filing the scrip claim at
the Vancouver land Office, thus giving
him title to the land, and, it is claimed,
to the improvement work done by the
rival company.
Protection by State Law.
Instances of similar transactions af-
fecting one or other of the companies
are said to be common. They can
not absolutely prevent the building
of railroad, though they may en-
hance the cost of construction. At any
