One of the chief officials directly under
the governor general is the executive sec
rotary. who has duties assigned to him
which are combined in no one official in
our government. The executive control
vested in the central government of the
Philippine Islands over provincial and
municipal governments is exercised di-
rectly by the governor general through
the executive secretary. He also con-
ducts much of the correspondence of the
governor general in his name.
The man who has some of the most
arduous work of the whole governmental
service in the Philippine Islands is the
secretary of the interior. One of the
control over and development of the more
or less uncivilized tribes. all of which
widely differ in customs, dialect and pur-
suits. and even i'll race. With more than
half million of these people. many of
whom formerly practiced head-hunting
and had little respect for justice or right
as it was practiced on them, the problem
of winning their friendship and co-opera
ton has been most difficult one. Until
the advent of the Americans these people
were exploited commercially by the
Spaniards and more intelligent Filipinos.
but under the present form of civil gov
eminent they have come to look upon the
Americans with genuine regard as friends
who will protect them in their rights as
we'll as sternly punish them when they
Offend Through this means of attrac-
ton, impartial justice and the gradual
growth of confidence, the American In
fiuence is being extended farther and
farther into the hitherto trackless and in
accessible regions. bringing more and
more of them into peaceful occupations
and lessening every day the depredations
and intertribal conflicts of the past The
sharply drawn tribal lines of old are dis
appearing and Igorrotes. Ifugaos and Kali
ingas now visit one another's territory in
peace and meet in friendly contests OF
strength and skill. The practice Of head
hunting as A method of settling quarrels
or gaining prestige is lessening. and the
use of the courts and appeals to the
American governor are becoming more
and more the method of settling disputes.
In many instances these people are being
successfully employed to police their own
country Cnspeakably filthy towns have
been made clean and sanitary. and they

The Fflipinos feel that they ought to be

that there is no basis for this claim either
in Justice or eXpediency and by calling at
tention to the fact that wherever the peo-
pie of these tribes have been under the
jurisdiction of the local Filipino govern
ment they have not been protected In
their rights or helped to Il higher plane
of human existence. These tribes even
hint at offering armed resistance to any
attempt to take them from under the di-
rect supervision of the American officials.
The interior department of the Philip
pines covers a large range of activity
One of the bureaus under its charge is
that of health. 1t operates the Philip
pine General Hospital, the Civil Hospital
and a number of other hospitals through
out the archipelago. 1t is now engaged
in using the moving picture show as a
method of bringing knowledge of the
necessity of sanitary surroundings to the
people of the Philippines. 1t is also en-
gagged in taking care of the public ceme-
teries of the island by enforcing regula-
tons with reference to their establish
ment and proper maintenance. Under
these regulations one no longer sees in
the provinces local cemetery assuming
the form of tropical jungle. partially
inclosed by broken fences. which permit
hogs and dogs to despoil the shallow
graves of the dead. The bureau of health
also maintains free dispensaries, and
otherwise looks after the health of the
people
Owing to incomplete returns. vital sta
tistics are yet restricted to Manila. The
death rate per thousand among FilipinOs
in Manila is very high. being 1865 for
1910. as against 1905 for Spaniards, 1927
for Americans. 14.32 for other occidentals
and Is Ga for Chinese. Two-thirds of this
shocking Filipino mortality is among
children of less than five years of age,
and if it We're not for the remarkably
high birth rate they would eventually die
out In Manila nearly fifty children to
every thousand of population are born
annually. While complete and fairly re-
liable vital statistics are not yet avail
BILE for the Philippine Islands as whole,
the facts relative to government employees
are definitely known. The death rate
among them for the fiscal year 1910 was
iS2 per thousand. Insurance companies
now write insurance for residents of these
islands on the same terms they would
give them in the United States.

these troubles. the modern Elijahs suay-

him. and he SAYS. 1.-THE Lord has been
good to us. and the Lord will look after
his little flock meaning the Holy Ghost
ers.
1t was in this vein that he talked as
he told the story of the cruise of the
Coronet on their month trip when
they sailed from the west cofast of trop-
ical Africa to within 600 miles of frigid
Greenland.
Set Sail for Africa.
1T was just about a year ago." began
the Holy Ghost leader. as he srroked his
blond-gray beard reminiscently that
the CorOnet and the Kingdom left Chesa-
peake bay together. The plan was to
sail to the west coast OF Africa and to
carry the gospel to different countries
along the coast. not to establish colonies
as has been reported. We We're to start
first for the Cape de Verde Islands, and
to meet there, if We didn't keep together
all the way. We met at Cape de Verde
all right, but the Kingdom lost us on
the way to Africa. 1t was not until we
sailed into Bathurst one day in the early
spring that we learned that the barken-
tine had been wrecked, and that the sur
vivors were there. We took them aboard
thirty-three in all, and set sail again.
I'VE have sixty-six persons aboard our
little schooner and she was uncomfort-
ably crowded. but l couldn't very well
leave them in Africa, possibly to the
mercy of savage negro tribes. 1t was
certainly right for me to bring them
home.
Soon our series of troubles began. Al
most every one on board was taken down
with African fever, which in the major
ity of cases proved fatal, but the Lord
was good to us. and. wonderful to relate
not one of all those afflicted died.
FINALLY June ~ we made a port in
Haiti. Up to that time we had expert

time until the present we have met with
terrible hardships Seven of our flock
died and were buried at sea. Scurvy set
