'FILIPINOS NOT

Ex-Governor Osborn Talks to Pres.
ldsnt About the Philippines

chase :. Osborn, former governor of
Michigau, met President Wilson re-
Gently i'm Washington and talked for
more than IS minutes about affairs in
Persia and In the Philippines. The
Michigan man brought To the president
messages from americans living i'm
both OF these countries of the far east.
The length OF the former governors
stay in the executive offices indicated
that the president was very much in
terested IN what was told him.
While Mr. Osborn did not care to
repeat Just what he told the president
about Persia. il is known that the
conversation related to the admins
Jration Of Morgan Shuster, the Ameri-
can who acted as the financial agent
of Persia, and who was dismissed at
the dictation Of tin Russian govern
mcut. The former governor believes
that there was sufficient excuse for
the dismissal OF Shustor. but there il
a wide difference of opinion of this
point. and many Americans side with
ShuStCr.

was asked.

will tell you that it is all rot; abso-
utely rot. The United States has
done more in the islands for the well
fare of the people in the last 10 years
than has been accomplished before in
all the years 81 their history. Health
conditions and economic conditions are
good all through the Philippines. This
state of affairs will continue under
American rule, but any one who has
Travelled from one end of the archi-
pelago to the other and throughout the

Editor News, Calumet, Mich
Dear Sir-Your article of June
ON motorcycle speeding has come to
my attention, and as president. ! am
glad To find The News fighting with
the Federation of American Motorcy-
clists, and for the same things for
which we are striving.
We stand for the use of the motor
cycle and not for its abuse.
There is a right way and a wrong
way To do anything-and riding a mo-
torcycle is no exception. We recognize
the fact that the man afoot has rights
as well as the motorcyclist and it is
our desire that each be properly OBJ
served.
The Federation has no sympathy
with or for the "speedcr" who hurts
himself through the streets or roads
imperiling the life and limb of all who
may come before him. Ii stands for
law and law observance; for courtesy
and gcntlemanly conduct and it is
bending every energy in these direc-
tions.
The objects of the Federation Of
American Motorcyclsts are To encour-
age the use of motorcycles and to pro-
mote the general interests of motor
cycling; to ascertain. protect and de-
fend the rights OF motorcyclists; to
facilitate touring; to assist in the good
roads movement, and to govern and
administer the sport of motorcycle
racing and other competitions in which
motorcycles engage.
We know that az an association we
can promote the general interests OF
motorcycling" only through law OBJ
servance. courtesy and realization
of the rights of others. These ends we
are striving TO attain.
In the last two years the member
ship Of the +. a. NJ has increased from
$4,000 To almost 2S000-and il is grow
ing larger every day. The motorcycle,
as vehicle, has made place for it,
self in pleasure as well as business. II

way, it will he respected and hold a
dignifed as we'll as a useful position in
this motor-d driven age.
dislike the open muffler "hend" cor
dially-and so does the +. A. NJ.
believe there is only one place for
"speeding"-and that is on carefully
constructed race track. There the rid
or alone takes chances. And through

OF the r. A. NJ, these are reduced to
minimum
So, | believe we stand together. and
If there is any way I can cooperate

showing. The rock tonnage handled
was not great deal under that mined
