modelled after those of their Central
African ancestors, and live life in
most instances little above that of the
savage. The island is in a continual
turmoil Of political upheaval, yet the
bulk Of the people know little about this
and care less. They know their local
chief. or ''jefe," and do as he bids them.
His Is the local over-lordship just as II
was in England in feudal times. He
calls them out to fight for this Presi-
dent or that pretender, and they go or
not, as they feel inclined The merits
of the case they know nothing Of The
local "jefes' owe in turn allegiance to
higher chief. perhaps the Governor of
the Province, and he in turn is the ally
OF the President or of his opponent, as
he sees fit.
Chaos I'm Government.
The result Of this sort of thing, Of
course, Is chaos in a Government nomi-
nally of and by the people. The only
way out Of 1t is q dictatorship on the
part of some man strong enough to rule
the contending factions by his person
ality. This is what happened in He
reaux's time. and what might have hap
pened since had Hereaux left behind
him any man strong enough to do it.
But he did not. The number of his po-
litical enemies whom Hereaux is said
to have killed in cold blood is set at
1000. Every time man gave evidence
Of such strength 1t was his death war

VIII They Improve.
Whether the Dominicans themselves
have in them the vigor which will make
them outgrOw this state of savagery
leavened with the feudal system and
ornamented with a modern republican
constitution. remains to be seen. One
fact Is surely in their favor. They are
gentle, honest, teachable, and in many
instances eager to learn. Outside the
cities there are few schools and few
opportunities to learn. Yet many Of
the municipalities do what they can to
provide schooling. and find eager and
responsive scholars. This is particular
fine city among the hills OF the interior,
and OF Santiago Province, which is the
wealthiest and most advanced Of any in
the island.
Education.
In the commune of Santiago, which
includes the city and it's suburbs, are 81
schools attended by nearly 1000 schol-
ars daily, these numbers being made up
of the sexes In about equal proportions.
The Republic has it's normal schools.
from the graduates Of which these
teachers are selected, and the branches
usually taught i'm our own grammar
grades are taught, as well as French
and English. In the outlying towns of
this Province similar hopeful conditions
prevail. In Puerto Plata, the largest
town on the northern coast of the
island, there is population of about
5000. Last year, out of the city's bud
get of 100000, $12.8O0 was spent on the
schools Nine hundred scholars between
the ages of five and IA attended
