The PHILIPPINE PROBLEM

According to recent Hdvir> from Manila,
Governor general Harrison and Nirr-@"vrrn"r
Martin HAY" declared THAI they would elevate
the larger part Of their energy and activity in
he islands 10 the. spread Of education and the
development of agriculture, hoping thar results
accomplished would com>1irul" the ir enduring
monuments.
Their predecessors must surely then h" rrrl-
tied with havin" provided the p'1'>taI> for
such memorials. the foundations they laid
in the Philippines were both broad AMI deep.
In all branches of scientific huSbandrv the
Philippine agricultural department. iudging
from results set forth in it's regular contribu-
tionS TO the photographs of tropical ayricul-
tur, is scarcely second to any similar govern
mpnt organization in the world. As to general
education in those islands, unless the MANY
Amtri teachers that lately were let out there
be replaced. there is room for mSgivingS con-
corning the success Of the present adminis-
tratiOn.
In recent issue the >Mindanao Herald, hay
ing stated that for several years it had been
giving expression "to firm faith in the ability
of the masses of the Philippine inhabitants, I'M
fder proper tntorShip. eventually to acquire fit
ness for participation in autonomous govern
ment, and expressed the belief that the public
school system should be ''the prime instrument
for racial upift," remarked:
ut is then with profound regret that We see
this uplift work hampered by the rapid elimina-
ton of American teachers whose noble work
here. has but opened the vast field that awaits
conquest. When the first stroke of a Filipnizel
Legislature sewers the tap-ro0t of the country $
only hope for acquiring fitness for representa-
tive government, what part Of the governmental
structure will he reduced to chips when the axe
is in full swing with all guidance from Ameri-
can influence removed? Our earnest hope is
that such guidance may not be soon removed.
A sincere, kindly interest in the Filipino people
prompts this hope

FIEANCIER'S VIEW OF IT

"C0mfUrt and satisfaction may we'll he de-
rived from the result of the election in the Soy
enth Congressional District Of New Jersey is
the opinion Of the Commercial and Financial
Chronicle one Of the OracleS of the mainland
financial world. The result comes to the New
Workers "at q time when there is much to
diShearten and discourage in the industrial
world For this indicates that the public has
put the seal Of disapprOval on political ten
denotes that have proved a source of great dis
turbance in the business world"
According to this authority the entire business
administration was on trial. The Presidential
endorsement and personal appeal was behind the
unsuccessful candidate. "Plainly the election
demonstrates that it is quite a different thing
for the President to undertake to compel Ohedi-
ence to his wishes and desires on the part of the
electorate from what it is to secure acquiescence
on the part of Senators and congressman. These
latter Yield their convictions out of a fear that
they may incur the displeasure of their con-
stituents in failing to support a chief executive
of the same political faith. No such considera-
tions, however, count with the electorate
Threats avail nothing and Establishments, no
matter how winning the methods, are of no eff
feet"
TO the claim tnat the ulStflcI was NORMALLY
Republican, the Chronicle replies that the same
may be said of the state of New Jersey. Mr..
Wilson's personality carried the present Demo
cratic Governor through and also the previous
Democratic candidate in this former Republican
Congressional district. But Mr.. Wilson used
his personality to the limit to pull this last
candidate through, and the result was a two
to one vote against him.
The conclusion of this New York authority is
interesting as showing the tenor of the financial
centers 1t believes that the electorate of the
Seventh New Jersey, district took emphatic
means of emphasizing the fact that, while they
still like the man (Alr. WILSON, they object very
decidedly to giving him further lieutenants in
aiding him in the self-assumed task of promOt-
ing legislation calculated to upset and disturb
the existing order" "There is only one all-suff-
cient explanation, namely that Mr.. Wilson has
been committing his administration to policies
that threaten the security and the stability of
things both politically and economically, and
that this has created widespread distrust i'll the
business world as well as among the voters. The
present weeks upheaval is evidence of the ma
ture and extent of this distrust"

WORTH FOLLOWING up

Hawaii is obtaining gratuitous advertising of
an excellent character from the Bird of Para
disc" play. 1t combines drama with local
color" the display heading of a favorable
critique in late Montreal paper says, the article
itself stating that 1.-The educational value OF tie
piece appealed quite rS strongly, perhaps more,
indeed, than any of it's merits as dramatic pro
duction. AS lesson in geography the work is
unique and acted as it was by an aIlround ca
pable gathering of actors and invested with a
plenitude of that most necessary quality termed
atmosphere it proved strong drawing card,
and has apparently lost none of the attractive
ness which characterized it's first local preSen-
tation.
Then comes Il synopsis of the play in review
style, with remarks on eXcellenceS Of acting by
different performers OF the one that persona
fed the Hawaiian princess, "Luana. it is re-
marked that 'it was difficult to believe that she
was not one of ilawaii'S own people, 50 natural
and SO satisfactory was her performance.
The idea occurs that whprcvtr the Bird Of Par
adiSe" has spread her ThrSpian wiIfg rs should be
a eIl-preparcd field for exploiting the attrac-
tonS of the pageantS descriptive of ancient lia-
wall which have come to form one Of the rS-
SentiaI features of H0nolulu's annual Carnival.

70 hear not only Doctor Nab!e tonight
at Central Union, but Will also be faN-
OrAd with the opportunity TO listen
TO Mrs Helen p. MONTGOMERY, quite
as much OF a celebrity in her way as
is the doctor.
Some of the most interesting mis-
siOnary features have been written by
Mrs Montgomery, and her work on
the various publications OF the Bap-
fist denomination has won for her a
wide circle OF delighted readers. AS
president OF the WOmen's Board Of the
Union. she is in close touch with the
activities of the wOmen'S missionary
societies all over the country and
finds it impossible to meet all the
calls that come to her for addresses.
A woman of rare charm and fine lit
erary power, she has made for her
self wide audience and many main
land cities would envy Honolulu this
opportunity to hear her vivid impress
siOns of the mission fields she has
just visited while they are still fresh
in her mind and before the keeness
of recent experience has been effaced.
Doctor Mabie speaks from the
riches of a long acquaintance with the
Oriental and other foreign missions.
While his address tonight will deal
with the trip he is just completing,
his previous visits to the countries he
describes will give him valuable basis
of comparison. After notable pastor
ates in Illinois, Indiana, Massachu-
seets and Minnesota, he was APP
pointed corresponding secretary Of
the American Baptist Union and in
1890 made an extensive trip visiting
missions of the union in Japan. Chi
ma and India. including Burma, AS
sam and the Telugu field, with a brief
visit to Egypt, Palestine and the con-
tinent of Europe He was also dele

Shanghai in 1907.
The general public is cordially in
vited to attend this important meet
ing at the Central Union parish house

Mr.. Wrandall stiffiy. your motives
were doubtless good Will you be so
good as to conduct us to a room where
we may-may be alone for a short
while?"
There was something tragic in the
mans face. His son and daughter
arose as IL moved by an instructive
realization of duty, and perhaps for
the first time in their lives were sub
missive to an influence they had never
quite recognized before-a fathers
unalterable right to command. For
once In their lives they we're meek
in his presence. They stepped to his
side and stood waiting, and neither
of them spoke.
Mr. Wrandall laid his hand heavily
on his wife's shoulder. She started,
looked up rather vacantly. and then
arose without assistance. He did not
make the mistake of offering to assist
her. He knew too we'll that to ques-
ton her strength now would be but to
invite weakness. She was strong. He
knew her well.

piecing this and that together he be-
came assured that she had told the
simple truth regarding the relationship
to Florence's mother. A cablegram
had given him all the facts in her his
tory: there we're no gaps or discrep-
ancies. It read clear and frank. Trust
a Russian secret agent to know what
he was talking about
so Norton's suspicions--and he had
entertained some-were completely
lulled to sleep. And he wouldn't have
doubted her at all except for the fact
that Braine had been with her when
he had introduced Hargreave. Har-
greave had feared Braine; that much
the reporter had elected from the but

you. l am not asking for mercy"
Hetty impulsively threw her arms
about the rigid figure, and swept a
pleading look from one to the other
of the four stony-faced Wrandalls.
They turned away without a word
or a revealing look, and slowly moved
off in the direction Of the boudoir.
They who remained behind stood still
motionless as statues. It was Vivian
who opened the library door. She
closed it after the others had passed
through, and did not look behind.
Half an hour passed. Then the door
was opened and the tall old man ad-
vanced into the room.
I'VE have found against my son,
Miss Castleton." he said, his lips
twitching. "He is not here to speak
for himself, but he has already been
judged. We, his family, apologize to
you for what you have suffered from
the conduct of one of us. Not one but
all of us believe the story you have
told. 1t must never be retold. We
ask this of all of you. 1t is not in
our hearts to thank Sara for shielding
you, for her hand is still raised
against US. We are fair and just.
If you had come to us on that
wretched night and told the story
of my sons infamy, we. the Wrandalls,
would have stood between you and the
law. The law could not have touched
you then; it shall not touch you now.
Our verdict, II you choose to call 1t
that, is sealed. No man shall ever
hear from the lips of Wrandall the
smallest part of what has transpired
here tonight. Mr.. Carroll, you were
right. We thank you for the counsel
that led this unhappy girl to place her
self in our hands"
"Oh, God, / thank thee-I thank
thee!" burst from the lips of Sara
Wrandall. She strained Hetty to her
breast
