ION this occasion found that Dato
Tumai had built for himself with his

larger piece Of land than was any
other Moro on the islands and setting
good example to the people. All in

betterment of the Moros at Palawan
are beginning to bear fruit. ~ ..-
1T is my personal opinion that the
lack of uniformity observable in the
results obtained in dealing with the
people in the different parts Of the
Moro province is chiefly due to the
frequent changes which have been
made in the men through whom gov
ernmental control has been exercised.
Heretofore the district governors have
almost invariably been army officers
or constabulary officers. The Moro
knows nothing Of policies, but under
stands individuals uncommonly we'll,

equation is Of vital Importance.

guard their arms, their Moro boatmen
treacherously murdered the sentries

turned them over to a dato named
Tumai. The provincial governor, Lieu

of the constabulary company concern
ed. with a force of constabulary SOL
diers, promptly attacked Tumai's town,
the mountains, where he sought ref
uge, attacked him again and recovered
nearly all Of the guns. Tumai prom
ised to behave, but with the lapse Of
time grew troublesome, and later,
when Governor Miller landed to hunt
near his place, surrounded him with
strong force. of armed men. The gov
ernor narrowly escaped losing his life.
Awaiting himself of his right under
the law to compel members of non
Christian tribes to take up their resi-
dence at designated place if such
course became necessary to the proper
maintenance of law and order, Cover
nor Miller then ordered Tumai to take
his people and settle among the CON-
paratively friendly Moros along the
east coast. This Tumai promised to
do within a couple Of weeks. but he
failed to keep his promise. On his
way back to the provincial capital
Governor Miller was drowned.
"When l visited Tumai's country
few weeks later in company with a
newly appointed governor the Moros
mistook me and my party for Cover
nor Miller and squad of soldiers and
prepared to ambush US. When they
discovered their mistake it was too
late for them to readjust their plans,
but they attacked nevertheless, and for
the first and last time in my eighteen
years of dealing with Philippine wild
tribes l was forced to allow my es-
cort to fire. After the resulting I'M
pleasantness eleven Moros. who had
been disarmed and compelled to sit
down during the fight, were set at lib
erty after having their weapons re-
turned to them and were directed to
inform Tumai, who was not himself
present, as to what had occurred and
to direct him to come to the east coast
and explain the conduct of his people.
Tumai started to come. but two other
recalcitrant chiefs advised him to fight
the Americans. and he decided to
do so. 4,
