HEARD IN
HOUSE
First Representative Of
Ills People, Against
Free Trade

Washington, April 2.-The voice O,
tho Filipino for the first time was
hoard today in the executive halls or
congress- Ii was rather In protest
against the system OF free trade.
which the Payne bill seeks 10 establish
with the Philippines.
Standing In his place in the house
OF representatives. Pablo Ocampo de
Leon. resident commissioner OF that
far island possession OF the United
States, criticised the proposition for
free trade because, he said, II would
cause decrease In the revenues or
tho islands, and act upon the truste
In such a way as TO preclude the pos
sibilitV OF independence. Speaking
for the Filipinos and yoicing their
sentiments. Mr. Ocampo de Leon
pleaded for such, independence.
He spoke In part as follows:
"As soon as the measure becomes
operative" 1t will Immediately cause
in the first year a decrease in the
revenues of about six million pesos
from which the Philippine govern
ment obtains the greater portion OF
its income for the support OF the ad-
mipistratdon- This decreasE would
augment every year as foreign impor-
tatione gradually fell off owing 20 the
advantageous position which American
products would have In the market,
position which inevitably would annul
foreign competition.
Living under the protection OF this
country, the Bilipinos would willingly
grant the greatest preference for Am
erican products, we're they not con-
vlnced that such preference means
ruin for their country. Once foreign
goods are driven from the PhihP-
pine markets. the importer OF Ameit-
can products would control the sit
uation- j..
THE decrease OF the customs reve-
nues would inevitably compel the Phil
ippine government to go into bank
r,iptcy. because there arc no other
sources from which to obtain reve-
nues to meet its financial obligations.
'"Viewing the question In its polti-
cal aspect. is there not danger tnat
future independence OF the Philip
pines would be hindered by the ues
consequent upon the establishment OF
free trade? The trusts and other cor
portions. that would establish them
selves IN the Philippines. encouraged
by free trade. would place rorrnid-
able barrier against Filipino freedom.
The only reciprocity we ask is
that our sugar and tobacco be admit
ted free Of duty, and In exchange al
low all agricultural machinery and I'M
nlements of manufacture free admis-
SION in1o all parts OF the Philip
pines"
The commissioner said he voiced
the sentiment of 100000 Fiupinos in
asking congress to grant them inde-
pendonce.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Ocampo de
Icons remarks. Mr.. G2ulden new
York; made the statement that at
public dinner in Washington. before
he WAS President. Mr. Taft declared
that, when he went to the Phiiip'
pines, he was creditably Informed that'
il he could get the influence and sup
mort of Mr.. de Leon, he would haAe
no trouble in pacifying the Filipino
people.

How indians Poisoned Arrows.

Indians took fresh deer liver,
fastened it to a long pole and then
went to certain places where they
knew they would find rattlesnakes.
The bucks would poke the first rat
tier with the liver. The snake
would repeatedly strike at the liver
with its fangs until its poison was
all used up. Then the pole was car
ried home and fastened upright I'M
til the liver became as dry as a
bone. The liver was pounded to a
fine powder and placed in a buck
skin bag. This powder would stick
like glue 10 any moistened surface
and was used to poison arrows
