Filipino assembly which meets in
Manila sometime in October, the first
sessions of which l shall attend In
order to give you my impressions of
the way they take hold.
1t should be remembered that this
body will be the cream de la cream of
the Islands, and in no sense repre-
sentative of the whole people. An
American State Legislature is repre-
sentative of the whole people. i. e.,
the people left at home are ION all
fours'' with the men sent to the legIs-
lature. Here it is quite different.
In the forthcoming elections only
about 10 per cent of the people Will
be permitted to vote, so the Filinlno
legislative assembly will be repre-
sentative of that 10 per cent only.

Political Education.

This often happens: An audience
composed of prosperous people will
assemble in grove or hall. Every
person in the audience knows be is
making money; that times are better
than ever before, and that his country
is the best on the face of the earth.
A politician who does not work will
step out on the platform, and say the
American people are being imposed
upon worse than the Russian people
are being imposed upon; that the
country is going to the dogs, etc.
And the fat, prosperous people in
the audience will cheer
Afterwards, they will say of the
speaker: "There is a mani" And
this in spite of the fact that the man
has said nothing that is not as un-
truthful, petty and mischievous as
anything ever peddled from house to
house by village gossip.
Iu his recent address at the old
soldiers reunion at Seneca, DIR.
Boyle, of Atchison, became little
impatient with politicians, and pitch
ed into them. People have long been
impatient with the politician, but an
individual voice in protest here and
there makes no difference. But poll
ticians are quick to recognize public
opinion, when 1t asserts itself. So
long as the people Will cheer reckless
and untruthful abuse of busy men
made by idle men, the reckless and
untruthfuI abuse will continue. AS
soon as the people show disposition
to be fair, the politicians will quick
ly take the .-Atchieson Globe.

From Our Exchanges

The Preston School of Industry
shipped to Sacramento Thursday a
miniature of the assembly hall which
is to be built at the school. The
miniature Structure is wired for
electricity throughout, contains a
stage, equipped with footlights, cur
talns and wings, together with the
auditorium on the lower floor, and
the large assembly hall on the upper
floor. 1t is built of reinforced con-
crete and is the work of the boys of
the school. Ihe windows and doors
are in place and the entire miniature
structure presents a very attractive
appearance. 1t is to be exhibited
during the irrigation congress and
state fair and will no doubt attract
great deal of attention. One OF
the darky boys, big fellow six feet
tall and weighing 100 pounds, was
sent down in charge of the exhibit,
without guard. This is a good ex-
ample of what the Preston school is
doing for the boys sent ther Echo.
Harry Stewart was called to Pacific
Grove last Saturday, on account OF
the serious illness of his son Percy,
who was reported by the physicians
to be suffering from an attack of
appendicitis. A telephone from
Harry shortly afternoon on Thursday
conveyed the intelligence that Percy
was operated upon and that the
operation revealed a condition much
worse than the physician had anticl-
pated. The operation was performed
at the st. Francis hospital in San

THE P0PE-S NEW
MARRIAGE LAW

Within few days an extraordinary
sensational and revolutionary law
interesting allCatholic clergymen and
Iaymen in the United States, and af.
fecting directly all Catholics in Am.
81 lea, will be promulgated by the
Vatican authorities.
Until now the church law has been
that American Catholics can contract
marriage validity, although iIlIcItly,
by going before Justice, or even be-
fore a protestant minister, when duly
licensed by the civil authorities, but
under the new law all these marriages
will be regarded as null and void
among catholics.
The new law which, is contained in
a decree of the congregation of the
council drafted by special request of
His Holiness Pope Plus X, ordains
that from next Easter no marriages
among catholics shall be valid unless
they are contracted before a duly au-
thorized priest in the presence of two
witnesses.
$ There will be only two exceptions
to this law, which Is to be universal
for all countries of the globe.
The first is that when there is i'm
minent danger of death, and no duly
authorized priest is obtainabIe, then
any obtainable priest can perform the
ceremony in the presence of two wit
nesses.
The second is decidedly revolution
airy.
1t Is that when there is no priest
obtainable in the district man and
woman may contract marriage that
will be valid merely by announcing
their consent or intentions in the
presence of two witnesses.
This latter is the most important
change made ID the marriage laws of
the church dnring the past three
centuries.
1t introduces radical overturning
of legislation in every country of the
world, and is regarded as the vsry
first Indication of sweeping changes
that are to be introduced in the code
of Plus which has engaged the labors
of the most learned body of ceclesias-
tical authorities in the catholic church
for the past four years, sand which
eventually will cover the entire field
of church legislation.

Passing of Colonel Seymour.

The death is announced of Col. onel F. H. Seymour, president proprietor of the Torres & Prietas railway, as having occurred at Pasadena, California, on the 14th inst. As related heretofore by THE OASIS, the deceased gentleman had been very ill with pleuro- pneumonia, and was taken to Cali fornia some weeks ago, with hope that the change would be beneficial.
 Colonel Seymour was native of England, and served with distinc- ton in the British army many years, rising to the rank of lieuten- ant-colonel of the Third Yorkshire Light Infantry, with which rank he retired, devoting himself to the profession of civil engineering, in which he is credited with some nota able achievements, in England, on the Isle of Wight and in Spain, at Salamanca. Infhis time he built several railways, and had charge of important mining enterprises, in both the Old World and the New.
 In England he was known as fearless cross-country rider, and there was no horse he feared to mount, nor any fence too high nor ditch too wide for him to negotiate if it were possible for his mount.
 He was sent to Spain by an English company to manage inn portant mining and railway inter- ests at Salamanca, and thence was sent to Sonora by the same people to take charge of the mines at Ce- ITO Blanco. While at the latter place he acquired the Grand Gen. tral Mine, at La Colorado, which he operated upon his own account, refusing a fiattering offer to go to Honduras for the same people he had represented in Spain and So- nora. After several years of suc- cessful operation of the Grand Gen. tral he sold the property, and in- vested his capital in construction of the Torres X Prietas railway, which he owned and operated up to the time of his recent fatal ill., ness. In all particlars Colonel Seymour was a man of affairs, and his demise Is a loss to the state and republic of his adoption.
 Surviving the deceased gentle man are his widow, Mrs Myra $. Seymour. daughter, Miss Maria Seymour, and son, MT. Gordon c. Seymour, who have in their sad loss the sincere sympathy of wide circle of friends in Sonora, Arizona and California.
