Pani, head of the National railway, for Charles A.. Douglas, Carranza's Washington at torney.
 It is understood that the statement will be included in one to the state department. Pani asserts that Obre- gon is idolized by the poor and that, conditions are due to the adroit op- erations of wealthy residents.

GOOD ROADS MAKES
 COAST SEEM CLOSER

The Holtville cutoff plank road to Imperial valley will be completed in less than ten days, shortening the distance by about fifty miles from Yuma to HOltyille, and the stage line will make the distance in about three hours.
 Later, the stage line will extend to San Deigo and make the trip in less than a day, so that among the possibilities of the near future, the Yuma business man can visit San Diego over Sunday. Leaving Yuma n the early morning, the mid day will lind the traveller in the cool mountain passes and reaching San Diego in the cool of the evening, thus making the trip even in the summer a most en- ioyable one-from Yuma to the coast.
 The Arizona & San Diego railroad in process of construction to Yuma will also furnish another short line to San Diego (but just when, no one who knows will telD. So the auto mobile is destined to furnish the first and best method of quick transit for Yuma and the Imperial valley to San Diego and the coast points.
 Good roads alone have made this possible, and the good roads boosters or of

 It seems clear, however, thai official action in favor or Confucianism has not affect ed the people at large to any extent, but that in so far as there is any religious reaction amongst the people it is a re- turn to the domestic, social and spectacular forms of idol atry, which are once more en- toying a wide popularity. Even among the educated, there is a decline of enthuSi- asm for the spread of Con- fucian doctrine.
 Opportunity in Philippine
 The FiIipinos represent 5 population strata. The abo- riginal stock is represented by the more than 23,000 little dwarf NegritoS, a people at the lowest level of social de velopment, who survive in re- mote parts of the islands. The first migration of MalayS survives in the wild, unc0n- quered tribes who live in the mountains, a savage people among whom head-hunting still persists, though this GUS tom is practically extinct in LuZon.
 A second migration of the early centuries of the Chris tian era, is represented by the civilized, though primi- tive tribes that dwell on the littoral plains, and numbering over six out of the seven mil lions of inhabitants, and con- Stitute the chief base of the present population.
 A third migration, also Ma lay, of the fourteenth and if teenth centuries, is represent ed by the Moro tribes on the island of Mindanao, a fierce Mohammedan people, who brought their religion witt them from Borneo. As . re suit of the mixture of the Ma lay blood with the Chinese, the Japanese, and the Euro peans who have from time to time dwelt in the islands, there is the "meStizo" popula- ton, which constitutes not far from a third of the entire population.
 Generally speaking, the FilipinoS are a simple, primi- tive, lovable, teachable and dependent people. They are kindly and hospitable. They have shown themselves to be capable of marked develop ment under the leadership and supervision of a strong race, and, with advance in education and self-direction, will become capable of ulti- mate independence.
 So far there have been i've social claSses-the educated, governing class chiefly mes tizo" and constituting about two per cent of the popula- tion; and the ignorant ruled class, which constitutes the laboring portion of the pop ulation. The present excel lent American public school system is creating a third ed- ucated and efficient class. It is in this third and middle class that the hope of the Philippines for the future lies.
 There are four distinct types of religion in the Phil ippineS.
 The aboriginal Negritos and the savage mountain people are animiStS. It is re- ported that among the wild tribeS human flesh ic Ctiil

pied the islands in the six ! teenth century they brought
 with them Roman Catholic
 ism, and within a very short
 time these tribes were nomi- 'nally Christian.
 Since the American occu- Ipation, a vigorous Protestant mission has been carried on
 by the various boards, with
 the result that there is now
 a strong and growing Pro-
 teStant constituency in the
 Philippines.
 American occupation be- gan with the signal victory of Admiral Dewey in Manila
 bay in 1898. Our nation sud
 denly found itself in posses sion of these islands, and con-
 fronted with grave respon- ISibility. A new day had now
 dawned for the Filipinos.
 The ideals of the Ameri-
 can government in the Phil ipDineS are the development of the natural resources ot the islands and their preser- vation for the Filipinos, the filling of government posi- tiOnS with Filipinos as rapidly IS they are fitted to bear the responsibility, the execution
 of speedy and equal justice
 10 all, the promotion of uni verSal education and higher ieducatiOn and the bettering I0f health conditions through sanitation.
 Facts that Count
 It is said there are no less than 100000 people in America doing distinctly Christian service. There are more than 15O,OOO ministers.
 For every missionary the churches send abroad they hold fifty-four at home. If Charity begins at home,"
 America has certainly made "a beginning.
 The running expenses of all the churches in America jn 1900 was $158,OOO,OOO. In. that year the Protestant Epis- cOpal church spent $14,6O6,- 900 for running expenses; the Presbyterian, $2O,375,- 900; Baptist, $12,348,OOO; Methodist, $28,269,OOO; Rom an Catholic, $31, 1855, ,OOO; Christian, $1O,OOO,OOO. These figures do not include the fabulous sums given colleges, libraries, etc. In general, the American church spent 94 cents at home for every six cents they spent for the evan- geIiSm of the non-Christian world.
 Christianity has a standing army of more than 24,OOC missionaries, and an annual income of $5O,OOO,OOO, with total of $7,OO0,OOO of native contributions.
 Upon invitation of the of ficialS of a city in China, a C0nfucian temple was used | for the last annual conven- ton of the Christian church | in that city.

Americas Right to Ship Arms Con-
Ceded, but Food Should Be Free

Philadelphia - DR.. Bernhard Dern-
burg, former colonial secretary of Ger
many, protested at Sundays session of
the annual meeting of the American
Academy of Political and Social Sci
ence, against declaration at recent
meeting of the academy that Germany
had declared against the right Of the
United States to sell and distribute
arms to belligerent countries.
DR.. Dernburg came here as listener
to the discussions on the effect of the
European war on Americas interests
and at the close of the session made a
brief speech in which he said the
declaration was absolutely false. !"
The address in which the statement is
said to have been made was delivered
by Charles Noble Gregory, of Wash
ington, d. c., who spoke on "The Sale
of Munitions of War by Neutrals to
Belligerents." )"
DR.. Dernburg explained that Ger
many had only complained of the in
equality of the treatment that his
country is receiving in that foodstuffs
are shut out of Germany, whereas
there is free transit of arms to Great
Britain.

that better results are obtainable from

from heavier coats. OF course, II
takes longer to do the work. Paint
put on In thin coats and allowed to
dry, lasts much longer and will not
flake off as is often the case when
heavier coats are applied. When very
fine results are wanted rub down each
coat after 1t has thoroughly dried.
