DELEGATION COMES
To PROTEST
APPEAL
RESIDENT FREE HOLDERS OF Ar.
LEE SCHOOL DISTRICT TO
FIGHT DIVISION.

Armed with petitions bearing the
signatures of nearly 80 per cent of
resident freeholders in the district, a
big delegation arrived from the reser-
walton yesterday to meet with the
county commissioners today and urge
the board to sustain County Superin-
tendent Edna Reinhard in her refusal
to. divide the. Arlee school district, No.
%, and to make of 40 avail the appeal
from her decision that has been en-
tered by some of the persons residing
about Arlee and in the southern sec
ton of the. district who seek the di-
vision. Among those who came from
Roman and ST. Ignatius and surround
ing places are Ross Lemire, Joseph
Grenier, D. N. Mason, Andrew Beck
with, H, C. Stansbury, l. L. Long, r. S.
Logan and John S. lines. A big dele
cation from the Moiese valley will ar
rive on this mornings train.
The visiting delegation proposes to
present a strong argument against the
division of the district. The Arlee
school district is n of h largest in
the whole country. 1t was created
when the reservation was first
opened on a plan which seemed to be
for the best interests Of all the new
settlers. There are II schoolhouses in
this district. Three of these, those in
the southern part, were. built and
equipped with the districts money. The
other IA were constructed at the ex-
pense of the residents. The plan for
the. district was M of consolidated
schools and ONE advance has already
been made in the scheme.
Those opposed to division propose to
show the county commissioners that
practically all of the taxable property
that furnishes the revenue for the dis
trfct is in the southern end and con-
sists Of the Northern Pacific railroad
lines. If this is cut off from the north
ern half, as is proposed, it would leave
this north section practically without
funds to carry on school in the build
inEs which the residents have them
selves built.
The strongest argument, however,
will probably be the showing made on
the petitions to he presented to the
board today. These, it is stated, plain
ly show the preponderance of senti-
ment against division at this time.
County Superintendent Reinhard's
decision in the matter was rendered
some weeks ago and today is the date
set for the hearing of the appeal.

A Remedy That Has Shown . Most
Remarkable Purifying
Effect.

The word medicine is one of the
most abused in our language. There
are certain medicinal properties just
as necessary to health as the food we
eat. Take, for example. the we'll
known tonic medicine S. S. S. This
famous blood purifier contains medic
inal components Just as vital and
essential to healthy blood as the ele-
ments Of wheat, roast beef. the fats
and the sugars that make up our daily
ration.
AS a matter of fact. there is one
ingredient In S. S. 8. which serves the
active purpose of stimulating each
cellular part of the body to the healthy
and judicious selection Of its own
essential nutriment. That Is why 1t
regenerates the blood supply; why II
has such a tremendous influence in
overcoming eczema. rash, pimples, and
all skin Affections.
And In regenerating the tissues
S. S. S. has a rapid and positive anti
dotal effect pom all those irritating
influences that cause rheumatism, sore
throat. weak eyes, falling hair, loss Of
weight, thin, pale cheeks, n that
WEAKNESS of muscle and nerve that is
generally experienced as spring fever.
Get a bottle of S. s. S. at any drug
store. and in a few days you will not
only feel bright and energetic, but
you will be the picture Of new life.
s. s. S. is prepared only in the labora-
tory Of The Swift Specific Co., 1877

ment. where all who have any blood
disorder of a stubborn nature may
write freely for advice I'd a special
book of instruction. s. s. s.. is sold
everywhere by drug stores, department
and general stores.

A good sampler of wine, unlike the

Then he must drink quantities of water.
Certain of them go to the trouble of
gargling the throat before drinking the
water to keep the sense of discrimina-
ton absolutely intact. The sense of sight
is first brought into requisition by the
sampler, then that of smell, the palate
serving to confirm or refute the intima-
tons thus gained.
The inspection demonstrates various
things For example. new wines are
clear, the older more yellowish in tint.
While old wine is better than new, yet
the old wine Is never clear, while 1t is
bad sign if the new is even slightly
turbid. Contrary to what is generally
believed. 1t Is by the odOr that the ex-
pert Is able to determine the vintage and
to detect adulteration, IL there be any.

of the wine; whether it be harsh or mel

tire surface of the tongue. and keeps
it there until 1t Is warm. 1t happens

but. with repeated hastings, this effect
wears away, and it shows body and evil

OUR SAVAGE Wards, THE NEGRIT0S

The early Spanish explorers. noting
the resemblance to the African, called
them "Negritos," meaning literally Tit
tie negroes" In the various dialects OF
the islands they are called "Baiugas
(mixed bloods) and "Mamanuas" labor
ig1nes).
There is something quaint, picturesue
and interesting about these new wards OF
Uncle Sam. Their shelters-not worthy
the dignity of the term ''house"-con'
sist usually OF a few poles inclined
against two trees and matched WITH
grass or leaves. Beneath this rude roof
slight protection indeed against the driv.
ing rains of the typhoon season. they
seem content and happy. Inelr agricui'
ture is in the most primitive stage. they
merely scratch the soil. without clear
ing on the underbrush and scatter
about the seed. They never homestead
upon piece or grouno. Tne princlpa
crop consists of a tuber something like
potato, called "camote." These
are planted in widely separated places
AS one crop ripens II is eaten, new
one planted, and the Negrito moves on
to the next patch.
A Race of Dwarfs.
In stature they are a veritaple race o,
dwarfs. The fuIl-grown men stand about

are of a dark brown color with some
thing OF suggestion OF a yellow unoer-
tone. One cannot help but be attracted
by the queer tattooing which is preva-
ent upon the breasts and backs of both
ben and women. Unlike the lndenple
lgfnts with which some Americans and
Europeans decorate themselves, the Me-
grlto designs are MADE by cutting the
flesh with a sharpened piece of bamboo

Dwar6sh Race that Has Re-

shippers and Their Intelli-
Sgence Is Limited.
BY a Soldier in the Philippines.

Events of nearly four hundred years
have been woven into the fabric of his
tory since a daring Portuguese navigator
pledged himself TO King Charles the First
of Spain to seek the rich spice islands,
supposed to be lying off the coast of Asia
in that half of the world which, by papal
decree, had been allotted to the Spanish
empire.
The history of the thrilling voyage of
Magellan. the tales of his discoveries, and
the tragedy of his death are stories now
familiar to every American schoolboy, but
few there are who know Of the strange
races he found in the Philippines, and
which remain to this very day much the
same as when he found them.
Those were restless days of chiyalry.
and a daring race Of priests and soldiers
were quick and glad to follow-for con-
quest or conversion-in the wake of his
ship Of discovery. Stanch men and brave
were they-cast in no meaner mold than
that which fashioned the indomitable Cor
tez and PiZarro.
Spain, England, and America have fiut-
tered from the capitol at Manila, but still
there remains, within three hours jour-
ney from the city, a strange race of wild
men who, through the ages, have proved
themselves unamenable to civilization and
its influences.
Running north and south through the
length of Luzon. the largest island Of the
archipelago. are great cordilleras and
their ramifications. Heavy timber and
light underbrush in most places cover
these ranges. Here, roaming through the
forests; living upon roots, fish, game and
berries; armed with a bamboo spear or
bow and arrow; naked, ignorant, and
pagan. is to be found a nomadic race of
pigmies approaching more nearly than
any yet discovered type the popular con-
ception of primitive men.
For many years the origin of this di-
minut!ve race of men has been an in
teresting and difficult chronological prob
lem. Scientific research seems TO point
to their origin in the Malay Peninsula,
where the human race is by many be-
lieved to have been Graded. Tnat this
may be the original type OF men-the
parent stock OF humanity-is the theory
of some who have tried to solve the
question of their antecedents.

A rftfful Example.

Four hundred years of oppression left
the Filipino people a ptiful example Of
backward, stifed race. Fifteen years
ago the blasts from Dewey's guns sound
ed the death knell of oppression and pro-
claimed the dawn of better era. I'M
mediately following the Inauguration of
the American regime. the wheels Of pro-
sress, rusty with the inactivity of CEN
turtles. again began to turn. Schools were
established where the ordinary primary
education is taught. Trade schools put
skill in idle hands. The fertile acres
given from time immemorial to unpro-
ductiveress are miraculously transform
ing into gardens.
The English language, fast supplanting
Spanish. is proving the means of solidi-
flying into a nation the members of
many different tribes. The leaven of
civilization is working. In every prov
ince great progress can be seen. But in
the mountain forests the little wild men
still cling to their old customs, their did
superstitions, and their old religion.
Happy, ignorant, pitiful children of ma
ture-wkat has Uncle Sam in store for
them? Shall they vanish before our
progress as Is vanishing the Indian I?
Shall they be down-trodden by the more
powerful! and more progressive neighbor-
ing tribes? Shall they live on thr rough
history a backward, half-beast race?
Or, better, can we find in them one grain
Of worth and from 1t nourish a worthy
race?
This is but one of the many problems
met by America in her colony beyond
the Pacific. There are man. other nom
Christian races with which we mus. deal
Two hundred thousand Cigarettes. a race
of head hunters, live in Northern Lu-
ION! In Neuva Vizcaya the nongots
deem no young man worthy of a bride
until he can present to his intended wife
human head. In Mindanao is a queer
race OF devil-worshipping Bilans. Be-
sides these are the Mangyans, Tagbanu-
as. Terurayes. Subanos, Bagabos. &C.
Fiercer than all, however. are the war
like. Christian-hating, Mohammedan
tribes OF the southern islands. Here all
tho baneful customs Of that religion are
practiced. The life Of no Christian is
secure, Tor any minute a Moro may seek
to obtain seat beside the great prophet
by striking OF the head Of an unbe-
lever.
Much has been done by the Unit I'D
States government to- educate and devel-
op these people. But the end is not yet.
our shoulder has just been put to the
load. Several generations may yet be
born before the great task il completed.
Our duty. though perhaps unpleasant. II
plain. The task, though dificult must
not be dropped unfinished. When igno-
rance gives way to wisdom, when racial
hatred vanishcs by the adoption OF q
unifying language. when superstition.
paganism. and Mohammedanism are sup
planted by the sweet tenets Of Christian
ity. then will our duty to the Filipino
b done.
