courts would, it mu ST be con-
coded, have worked a hardship
on the old Spanish and native
lawyers, but they are few, and
the interests of the coming gen.
Grafton should not have been
sacrificed to them.
The substantive laws, aside
from the acts of Congress-, the
Commission, and now the legis-
lature, are the Spanish Civil and
Penal Codes and the Code of
Commerce. We are therefore
administering side by side the
two great systems of jurispru-
dence which divide the world
the English Common Law, and
the old Roman Civil law, as
modified to meet the needs of the
people and embraced in these
Spanish codes. This affords not
only most interesting and in
structive study in comparative
Jurisprudence. but will in time
result in the blending of the two
systems in the Philippines to the
great improvement of both.
PHILIPPINE EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM
Without diffusion of educati on
among the masses of the people
free ms itutions and popular gov
eminent were impossible. 1t being
the generally accepted policy of our
government (although without any
express declaration to that effect
by Congress- the only department

and In hope thai at some distant
time we might be able to com il
to them their own destiny, and the
sole management of their affiirs,
and free ourselves from further re-
sponsibility for their welfare and
protection, among the first of the
things done by the Civil Govern
ment was to establish a department

and put into into operation primary
and secondary public free schools
throughout the archipelago under
the management and direction OF a
bureau of education. One thousand
American teachers, male and temal :,

States in the beginning; and never
before in the history OF tie world
was such an eff)rt male all at once

first question, therefore, to be d.

wisely determined upon tor the
reasons that it is the language in

a common language would faciliate
the administration OF the govern

BUTLER ACTIVE
IN STATE SENATE

To solve il possible the difficulties
which have arisen over the construc-
tion of the Shellrock road along the
Columbia river, in Hood River county,
Senator r. r. Butler, of Hood River
and Wasco, has introduced a resolution
calling upon the governor or some
other authoritative person or body to
investigate and determine by what
tight the Oregon-W ashington Railroad
Il Navigation Company can keep the
county from constructing a county road,
says a dispatch from Salem.
The difficulty arose last year be-
tween the company and the county and
Governor West was also involved In
the difficulty from the interest he had
taken in the construction of the road
and from the fact that the state had a
large band of convicts working there.
The railroad company enj0ined the
county from doing further work, under
the claim that it would interfere with
the operation of their trains. The
county desired the railroad company as
| did the governor, to move over por-
tion of its tracks to allow the road to
90 around a certain Toint, but the com
pany refused.
Governor West called off his convicts
and the road work was held up.
Senator Butler declares that he
wishes to see searching investigation
made into the question.
Senator Butler is very active in his
efforts for his constituents, declare re

THE ADVICE OF GOVERNOR LISTER

LESS boosting and more actual de-
velopment," the advice given by Gov
ernor Lister, of Washington. to north
western development organizations, is
well taken A reaction seems to have
pervaded the whole west coast. 1t has
been found that some of its citizens
and organizations have devoted all
of their attention to big talk and
have been little doers. Every man
should express confidence in his
community and the right kind of boost.
ing and publicity is a good thing, but
the man who does nothing is too often
the one who raises the big hue and cry,
and he paints his pictures in such rain
bow colors that they become laughing
stocks.
Governor Lister is right when he
says that more actual achievement
should be the end of commercial organ
izations. But we believe that but few
of these organizations need the warn
ing. Everywhere they have seen the
better results obtainable when affairs
are run on a more conservative basis.
A new era seems TO have set in, one of
more solidity. We have already seen

HLLIACUS WILL 0PER-
ATE MODEL CREAMERY

III. G. Zilliacus, who came to the val
ley from Massachusetts last fall and
purchased a West Side ranch, has be-
come imbued with the great opportuni-
ties for dairying here. He was i'm
mediately attracted by the wonderful
scenery of the region on his first visit
to the valley and was not long in decid-
ing to make his home among the beau
tiful scenery of the mountains, as he
expresses it. He at once noted the
lack of interest paid to dairying here
and began to lay plans to operate one
himself. He recently made trip to
Portland and the Willamette valley and
secured a number of cows. As yet he
has not secured his full number, which
will be Is head of the best mixers that
money can procure. 81 am going to
have Jersey and Durham cows he
says.
Mr.. Zilliacus has just completed an
addition to his barn and now has one
of the largest barns in the valley and
one of the most up to date dairies and
creameries in the state.
Before coming to the valley Mr..
Zilliacus was merchant in Massa-
chusetts. He is native of Finland
and graduated from a university there
as we'll as from an agricultural school.

cmGpan eNS

People should have the privilege at
least, of being able to believe t1e ews
that appears in the newspapers as
facts. Since the local power and light
conflict has prevailed rlmber o.
statements have appeared IN the Hood
River News and in the Portland Jour
nal that have been altogether errOn-
eous. The news statements have beer
so colored as to lead those who read 70
draw very misleading conclusions.
Only last week the Hood River News,
in news item, reported rumors aad
then drew conclusions, which the gen
eral reader, glancing hastily at the
week news, might take as a true re-
port of facts. Last Wednesday after
noon, the local correspondent Of the
Portland Journal fu,siished the readers
of that paper with yery cleveriy
punched lot of rumors. The cop
reader of the journal evidently does
not know news from rumors pd tte
story was played up with cig basd
lines stating that the "P. =. e. L.

the general public to believe but that
the Pacific Power g. Light Go. had
gained control of the Hydro Electric
Combany's pantl But this isn't news.
In such cases the news columns of go
called newspapers are used to mislead
the public.
After one took time to analyze the
reports. after they had been disseeted
and one had taken into consideration |
the number of 'it is believeds," " it is
found there is not direct statement
in the whole story. The writer has
drawn bis colored conclusions and these
are direct statements. it is true. How
ever, they have all been based on
very delicately woven bits Of rumor,

printed as legitimate news. When the
news writer makes his rumors, then he

umors of last week were only rumored
Ifter they had appeared in the news

The Glacier has always made an en-
eavor to print the news. When ru
nors are general, then its columns may
ontain statements of them. If the
'aciiic Power and Light Co. should

lower and lighting field, then the Gla |
,ier will endeavor to get at the true
ource of the news and give the facts
o its readers. Or if by chance the

make an endeavor to furnish the true
facts of such deal.
