THE WILD lGORROTES
Famous Head Hunting FilipinOs
at Iowa State Fair.

The flower of the fighting men of the
warlike Bontoc Igorrotes, with their
women folk and a cute boy baby, from
the remote mountain Businesses of the
Philippine Islands. are to be seen llv-
ing in TYPICAL village at the great
Iowa State Fair, Des Moines, August
20 to 20. and fine opportunity will be
offered to visitors to study at close
range the most remarkabl primitive
agricultural people in the world.
For generations untold the Igorrotes
have lived in their simple tribal life.
untouched by outside culture, and are
today as wild as weeds. Fierce hun.
ters of human heads and constantly at
was with their neighbors in surround
ing towns, they are true children of
nature. They are of Malay origin. and
superb 'pbysiques which their scant
attire displays to fine advantage.
The village will be completed with
all the various types of houses, and all
their crude industries will be in opera
tion. There will be a spirited exhibi-
tion of their war dances. tribal songs,
spear throwing, mock battles, and
other sports and pastimes.
The village comes to Des Moines
with the highest endorsement of the
press where it has been shown, as we'll
as of exposition and public officials,
and is an educational exhibit OF so high
character that every man, woman
aud child should visit it and learn at
close hand of one of the hundreds of
problems which the panish-American
war laid on our shoulders.

MOB VIOLENCE DEPLOR.
ED BY j. C.. REID. a

That mob violence, bayonets
and bullets will never solve the
race problem is the opinion of
Rev. J. Cornelius Reid, pastor of
Mt. Zion baptist church, who in
sermon last evening discussed
at length the racial troubles at
Springfield, Ill. "Let right pre-.
vail, uphold law and order, and
the Negro problem will take care
of ITSELF" was the theme of his
sermon. The preacher said in
part:
1.-The city of Springfield, ILL.,,
now takes its turn in furnishing
the world with new and bloody
chapter and mob cowardice and
race hate. The parallel COMPARE
son of the Atlanta riot and the
Springfield mob reveals the same
spirit; reason dethroned, sane
minds rendered incompetent,
peaceful and harmonious relation
ship becomes farce, religion a
dream, the ties of brotherhood an
echo, the power of education as a
civilizer thing of contempt, all
because of the usual crime
The burning of homes, beat
ing and killing of innocent peo-
pie, is an evidence that all who
were in the pathway of the mob,
whether Negroes or protectors
of law and order, we're accessories
after the fact to the usual crime.
The psychology of mob of sup
posed rational beings is hard to
determine. Can it be that this
uncomfortable thirst for human
blood comes from an honest de-
sire to mete retribution to the Of
fender regardless of race, because
of such crime? Or is it an in
herent hatred of dispicable race
that is trying to claim all the
rights of full manhood? The
mob's indiscriminate action to-
ward innocent Negroes will not
in reality intinidate them, but
will make the problem more intri-
cate in its solution.
'.The American Negro possess
es the same progressive spirit,
alertness of mind, keencss of OBJ.
servation, braveness of heart, in.
ate power Of resentment of a
wrong, as the American white
man, and justice alone can har.
monize these similar forces. The

tice Of the Peace. In aspiring to that
Office ! would just as soon ask a Re-
publican, as a Democrat, Socialist or
nonpartisan for his support, as the
office should be and during my in
cumbency always has been conducted
without regard to politics.
! have resided in Clatsop County
for 81 years, my whole interests are
here, and ] expect to remain here.
! have tried to conduct the office
with impartiality and fairness and
with due regard to the interest of
the taxpayers. The annual appropria-
tions of the County Court FOR the
Coroner's office which includes, physi-
clans, jurors and witness fees and
other necessary expenses such as
boat hire have been 100000 and the
actual expense has often been muchS
below this figure. have always
deemed it an honor to be Coroner and

my reelection to the voters on my
