After having killed little child in
Jacksonville the street cars of that
city are to be provided with tenders.
Several years ago certain wild-eyed
newspaper men and other radicals"
made an effort to have the street cars
equipped with tenders, but the COM

the aid of certain benevolent city Of

The newspapers didn't make any

Filipino POLICY a FAILURE
Useless to Try to Civilize the Islands
Thru the Medium of
the Army

The Military Order of the Cara

a banquet the other night in Wash
ington. Some songs were sung, and
now it will have to get along with
out the name of President Wilson as
an honorary member. The president
doesn't feel that he can club with
people who sing a song which runs,
Damn, damn, damn the insurrec-
tos,' and which is sung in the YER
nacular with "Filipinos'' in the place
Of ''insurrectos.' So he has with
drawn his acceptance Of member

The incident has a deeper mean
ing than a difference of opinion
about songs, or taste in revelry.
1t means that the army hates the
F'ilipinos, and despises Wilson and
Bryan for pursuing any course to-
ward the Filipinos which smacks of
anything but force and subsection.
1t means that the government can
count on the army when the army
army agrees with its policy; but that
when that policy becomes offensive
to the hates and prejudices of the
| army there will be no whole-hearted
| cooperation on the part of our own
army servants.
1t means that the feeling which
| once made Taft the butt Of army

was governor general Of the Philip
pines, the phrase little brown

pinos; and there was a song which
ran He may be a brother to Will

1t means that the army is no
proper agency for the dissemination
OF brotherhood or the spread of dem
ocracy.
1t means that the whole Philip

priestess in the temple of Diana and
that the figures are to be draped.
