The PHILIPPINES.
XXII-The Igorots.
By Frederic j. Haskin.

1t has frequently been explained in
these series Of articles that the Philip
pines wild tribes and Moros constitute
barely one-tenth of the archipelago's pop
ulation of SOOOaO0. but this seems neces-
sary because of the erroneous impression
in this country that the Igorots seen al

uans in various small wild tribes.
The 10000 Igorots are found in eleven
provinces of northern Luzon. They vary
widely III development. ranging from the
barely civilized down to the widest head

around Baguio are the tamest. while the

Other Questions Uppermost.

The public mind has been occupied with
'Mullhall-ing'' it is said rather to the
exclusion of contemplation of impending
changes in the system of taxation. When
the law actually confronts them, requir-
ing every man with an income of $4,000
or $1,000 whatever sum is fixed, to
yield up a percentage of his income in
cash as a tax, the public sentiment may
be sounded.
All that the statesmen have to go upon
now is the fact that the country by an
overwhelming vote through the Estate
legislatures supposedly representing pop
ular sentiment practically unanimously
ratified the constitutional amendment
making this legislation possible and they
assume that in this regard, too. the peO-
PIE are being given what they have been
demanding.
So, the Congress and the administration
are going steadily ahead to carry out the
will of the people as expressed at the
polls last November" If it is urged that
the party now in power came In by a
"fluke' and does not represent an actual
majority of political sentiment, democrats
answer that they have every reason to
believe that the republican progressives
whose detection assured the democratic
victory. are as eager for tariff reduction
and the income tax as any democrat.
Nothing short of another election will
precipitate the floating elements of spec
ulation and fact in that argument By
ing that the democrats shall go as far as
they like and as swiftly as may be with
their policies, and give them a "try-out''
on the country.
