looking al the situation broadly,
there is one fundamental thing to
which the United States has pledged
itself, viz: To establish and maintain
a stable government in the Philippine
islands.
Gives Freedom.
The real significance of the Amer
lean work in the Philippine islands
has been giving freedom to millions
of people really held in serfdOm. The
premature withdrawal from the is
lands and the premature r~elinquiSh-
ment of control will set back the
hands of the clock. undo the work
rises and sets. return these people TO
the bondage from which we have
partly delivered them.
My recommendation has been and
still Is that we proceed along What
] consider the only safe lines of pro-
ce0ure. namely. that of evolution, that
we fll the lower branches Of the
service with %Fflipinos, let them grow
up with it. give them careful, wise
and thorough Supervision and promote
them as a result OF proved efficiency,
giving them only what is good for
them. not always what they want.
But Jet US not let go the firm an
Choir of the assured sovereignty Of
the United State, and try TO tie up To
any silly rope OF sand such rs 'neu-
t~ralizatiOn. Naturalization rests on
nothing more than agreement, and
agreements among nations are kept
only so long as il is in the interests
OF those nations to keep them.
How. IL we give up control. are
we to protect the lives and property
OF the citizens Of the SignatOry pow
ers 10 the agreement? To show you
most graphically the position we
should be in. j have only one ques-
ton 10 ask: Is not one Mexico

Factories That Float.

Floating factories have become an
important part of the development
of the forest resources of India. In
certain parts of the country forests
are only accessible through the water
courses, and the great expense Of
erecting land plants for the utilization
of the lumber resources makes such
a course impracticable. Therefore
sawmills and other manufacturing
establishments are built on floating
platforms and moved up the streams
as they are needed.
After the lumber is prepared in a
sawmill it can be packed in a way
that makes transportation much more
economical than any system of log
.ging. Plants for the preparation OF
tannin extracts have also been estab-
lish in this manner. The plants are
built on fiat boats, 200 feet long. by
27 feet wide, capable of carrying a
load of 470 tons,

No Intervention, Says Bryan.

Washington.-That the Wilson ad-
ministration will not intervene in Mex
leo or participate in any drastic move
ment for the sole purpose of protect
ing the financial interests of Ameri-
cans in Mexico has just been re-
iterated with emphasis by Secretary
of State Bryan.
To a delegation of nine Americans,
representing approximately s250,000,-
900 worth of interests in Mexico, Sec
retary Bryan is said to have made 1t
plain that there will be no interven-
ton to save the property, that there
will be no participation with other ma
tions in a message of warning to
HuNta or the Mexican people against
the destruction of property of for
eigners, and there will be no change
of our policy of neutrality to the ex-
tent of letting the revolutioinists and
the government alike get all the arms
they want from this country to the
end that the revolution may be fought
out decisively.

Affection Causes Dogs Death.

Natural affection on the part OF
dog was instanced in remarkable
manner at Beaumont, in the province
of Soane-et-Loire, France, a few days
ago. One of the inhabitants drove out
of the town into the forest to gather
firewood. taking with him the dog.
which he left to guard his coat and
basket of food while he wandered
about gathering wood. In his absence
the dog gave birth to three puppies,
and the wood gatherer, when he start
ed home, forgot to place the puppies
in the cart with their mother. During
the night the dog jumped over fence
and ran the whole distance. some ten
miles. to the spot where the puppies
had been left, and brought one back
in her mouth. Then she made two
more Journeys in order to bring back
the other two. Altogether she COW
cred a distance of about sixty miles
in the night The next morning her
master found her dead in the yard
by the side of her puppies. which were
alive and well.

TO ENLARGE FREE LIST SCHEDULE
SENATE COMMITTEE INCLUDES
CATTLE, SHEEP, HOGS, GOATS.
modities Balanced to Relieve
High Cost Of Living.

Washington. - The agricultural
schedu,. OF the Underwood tariff bill
was suddenly upset again Monday by
the majority members of the senate
finance committee when a motion was
made 10 reconsider action taken ear
lier in the day approving the free
listing of i've stock and wheat, sub
iect 10 Il cOuntervailing duty.
The proposal now is to strike out
the provision for a cOuntervailing duty
and leave cattle, sheep and hogs and
wheat on the free list unrestricted.
For weeks the equalization of agri-
sultural raw products and finished
products which We're differentiated in
lem for the democratic senators in
which President Wilson has taken an
active interest.
The house put fresh meat and flour
on the Tree list, leaving live stock and
grains dutiable at 10 per cent ad va
loren and 10c a bushel, respectively.
The senate finance subcommittee,
soon aHer receiving the schedule,
agreed to equalize the rates and event
uaiiy voted to make the raw materials
and the finished products all dutiable.
No sooner had this conclusion been
reached than Senator Simmons and
other democratic members of the
finance committee determined that the
1. h. lnA ,-in lx-
if left that way They were of the
opinion that all products which enter
into the high cost of living should GO
on the free list and President Wilson
agreed with them.
Senator Simmons communicated this
information to the subcommittee and
Teconsidered its action, placing al
these products on the free list. Later
it was announced that the committee
would add a countervailing duty
clause which would make the prod
ucts free only from countries which
did not make them dutiable from this
country. This would operate against
the free entry of live stock from such
countries as Canada and Argentine.
The committee Monday further en-
larged the free list by voting to take
hemp ramie from the dutiable list
The Underwood bill rates on flax were
from 1c to 112c per pound and OF
hemp and ramie from y to l cen
per pound, according to grade. L
was argued that these products shoulC
class with other products OF the farm
and that by free listing them, the cos
of living might be beneficially affect
ed. Rates on finished products from
these materials were materially re
duced.
Bananas, which have never beel
subject to tariff tax, were put on tn
dutiable list by action of the commit
tee.
Mohair was also put on the free list

Gone was the brightness of the

quickness and there was scarcely a

piled:

MEXICAN FEDERALS LOSE HEAVILY |
REVOLUTION IN MEXICO ADDS
MEN DAILY TO REBELS.
General Castillo in Mutiny Quits
Huerta for Gomez-Whole Coun-
try Is in Revolt.

FL Paso, Tex,-Six hundred federals
were killed or wounded in a battle
faw days ago at Saltillo. according
TO reports reaching FL Paso Monday
from the southern part of Chihuahua
state.
After this victory over more than
1000 federals, the insurgents under
Generals Villa, Choa and Hernandez
marched north toward the state capt.
tai whence the parral garrison had re-
treated. They were reported as hay-
ing taken Cusihuirachie, a mining
town west of Chihuahua City.
The 400 federals who Friday evac-
uated MADEIRA were met Saturday by
Villas men at Bustillos. The rebels
poured a hot fire into the federal
troop trains, killing the engineer and
fireman. The train retired.
General Mercado, acting military
governor. has called in all other out
lying garris0ns TO the defense of the
capital. The insurgents are maneu-
vering to prevent these movements.
Some 500 federals at Juarez alone
remain unaffected by the generals or
der. Juarez is threatened by a move
ment of constitutionalists from the
Ominaga district below the Texas bor-
der, according to military reports re-
ceived at Fort Bliss, Texas.
Practically every railway line in the
state is out of commission as a result
of rebel activities. There is no traf-
fic on the Mexican Central railway
north or south of the state capital.
The Mexican Northwestern railway is
operating below the border only as far
as Casas Grandes.
The only armed force in cOnse-
! quence in the Casas Grandes district
| is led by General Castillo. a mutineer
from the federal ranks He has pro
! claimed for the Nasquez Gomez rey0
LUTON which is not connected with
| the constitutionalist movement.
After taking Pearson last week
| Castillo was joined by Braulio Her
nandez, who previously was reported
| executed. Hernandez, a former secre
tary of state of Chihuahua. is said tc
be organizing a provisional govern
ment under the Nasquez Gomez ban
ner in the Casas Grandes district
which was left unprotected by either
| federals or constitutionalists as fan
south as MADEIRA.
Almost surrounded by the constitu
tionalists, the city of Monterey is il
a most desperate condition.
The poor people are suffering from
! hunger and the constitutionalists have
cut off all avenues of supplies. Ever
carts carrying corn are not allowed
to reach the city. and this product i:

Industry within the city has beeI

not operating, and railroad traffic i
