Victor s. Clark in his report on

prints an extended statement made by
a n American contractor, in which he
asserts that Chinese labor is not need
ed or desired in the Philippines.
"Amerieans are themselves respOn-
sible for most Of the present labor
troubles. They came into a country
where the prevailing rate Of wages
adjusted to the standard Of living and
to the cost Of production in eompeti-
tion with other countries, was about
321h cents silver currency, or what
would be IA cents American currency
at present exchange rates. Aetnated
partly by motives Of sentiment and by
inexperienee with tropical labor, the
government authorities in employing
men, raised wages nearly 900 per cent,
or TO Al American a day in many cases
and, / may add, they raised the labor
cost Of works a nearly equal amount

Saturday evening about 8 O'Clock. The

grain or the separator were fruitloss.
Both were a total loss, with no insur-
anee. The grain consisted Of wheat
and oats, and was estimated at be-
tween 1900 and 1000 bushels. They
had been threshing in the field but a
short time when the FIRE started, and
only about 100 bushels had been
