PARL LAMENT FOR
THE PHILIPPINES
Secretary Taft to 90 There
Next Spring to See New
Feature Installed.
PRESIDENT KEEPS WORD
IT WAS PROMISED THAT ISLAND
Frs SHOULD GET A LEGISlA.
TIVE BODY ON GOOD BEHA-
VOR-AGITATION SHOWN.
publishers PressI

washington, Oct 30.-The president
Is preparing to redeem his promise
made TO the Philippine people through
Secretary Taft, that they shall have
a parliament of their own, conditioned
apon their good behavior for term
of two years, and it is understood that
Secretary Taft himself will proceed
to the Philippines next spring to wit
ness the installation of the new form
of representative government Marcn
81, 1905, the Philippine census was
published and consequently two years
from that date, March 81, 1907, under
the terms of the act of congress, the
president will direct the Philippine
commission to call a general election
for the choice of delegates to what
will be known as the Philippine assem-
bly,. This body is to take over all
legislative powers heretofore eXer-
cised by the Philippine commission In
all that part of the archipelago not
inhabited by Moros Or non-Christlan
tribes.
AS this date draws near the Philip
pine people are SuOWlAS Signs "a 49,
tation and to the officials here 1t is
evident that they are expecting some
benefits that cannot at once be real
lied. For instance, the assembly OF
provisional governors recently in ses-
sion in Manila, with the view to ar
ranging the preliminaries for the
meeting OF the Philippine assembly, is
reported to have recommended that
the suffrage be widely extended. 1t is
pointed out here that this is not pos
sible, for the reason that the act OF
congress, under which the assembly
will be convened, expressly states the
qualifications of voters. These in
brief, are that the voter must be at
least % years OF age (Which was the
Spanish requirement.; must be able
to read and write either Spanish or
English, or must own certain small
amount of property, or must have
been in the past an officeholder un-
der the Spanish government.

written in a digniied, conservative
style, yet with certain briIliancy
that arrests attention at once. They
will tell story in way that in
terests and instructs, and bring to the
front many important facts about
a business never previously stated

man lives so closely TO his work that
he does not appreciate the fact that

communicate with Mrs. Pinkham, at

private illness TO a woman; thus has
been established the eternal confidence
between Mrs. Pinkham and the women
of America which has never been
broken. Out of the vast volume Of
experience which she has to draw from,
it is more than possible that she has
gained the very knowledge that will
help your case. She asks nothing in
return except your goodwill, and her
advice has relieved thousands. Surely
any woman, rich or poor. is very foolish
If she does not take advantage of this
