Thomas R. Marshall in a speech at

wholly inexcusable is that system
which teaches a man to be ashamed
OF his life work, which convinces a
boy that it is better to live by his wits
than his muscles, which turns a natu-

PHILIPPINE GOV ERNMENT
HELPING SUGAR PLANTERS

The Philippine government has set
aside $750,000 to be loaned to sugar
| planters to assist them in making and
marketing their crop for the current
year. This money is to be loaned
through the bank of the Philippine
islands on the crop now being harvest
ed. No loan shall exceed 81 per picuI
t133 1-3. pounds). Sugar usually sells
in the market for $1.75 to $3.50 per
picul.
The government, through the bureau
of science, is making strong effort
to save government growers from the
annual loss entailed on their industry
by unscientifie methods of handling
the crop. Special attention is being di-
rected to the practice of crushing cane
before maturity. It is estimated that
hundreds of thousands of dollars are
annually lost through this practice. It
is due in part to custom and in part
to lack of sufficient machinery and
labor to handle an entire crop within
the period of riDening and subsequent
deterioration Planters begin to crush
their cane some time before it has
reached the point of maximum sugar
value AID continuing into and through
that period. This practice results in
several grades of sugar and causes
pecHniary loss.
The sugar experts of the bureau of
science have figured cut plan where
by the shortage of labor may largely
be overcome by carrying on the plant
ing at the same time with and by the
same labor that does the harvesting.
A campaign OF education is being car
Tied on to wean the planters from
their expensive traditions.

A week or two ago the Record Herald had some comment to make on the fact that Fl Pueblo de Nues- tra Sonora Ia Reina de Los Angeles. q painfully proper, moral and pro grcssiVe village, had decided in it's superior way not to get after the dice game About the same time it was discovered that dice games were Dc ing run in the cigar stores and other business centers of this city and it is not too much to say that this is the greatest discovery since tobacco was first used by white men. The remarkable thing about it is that there has been no time for months and Nears that the petty gambling has not been going on. but the sec ing eye has been wanting.
 While the physical fact was so pat ent that there was no escaping it. such was the dullness of the mtntal vlsica that, except the few who are always on the trail of the serpent, nobody thought a word about it. Then a sensation sweled up and burst The gas escaped. but the dice remain. Does this mean that the gambling is to tolerated now and forever as a bushes attraction? Chicago Record Herald
