the man who is working hard for a
few thousands doesn't know how the
stealing is done.
''Do you imagine for a moment
that men could take fortunes out of

where big profits are made at the ex-
pense of human lives were it not for
the code which values a life at sim

BACKS JOHNSON.-Frank John
son, first assistant to States Atty
Hoyne, ought to be elected judge next
Monday. He has been Hoyne's right

prosecutions ever handled in Cook

JEWS IN RUSSIA.

Russia has the largest Jewish pop ufation of any country in the world. Although tn cir lot has not always been an enviable one under the rule of the .Tsars, the great war has found them loyal citizens of their northern fath- erland willing and anxious to contri- bute their sacrifices to the success of it's cause. According to private let ters and dispatches from Russia, many Jews have come forward to en- list; they have opened and equipped hospitals for the soldiers. and dis played an eagerness to aid with their goods and their labor The warmth of their patriotism has been a surprise in Muscovy.

LANGUAGE PROBLEM
 IN PHILIPPINES IS NOT FOR ESPERANTO.
English Bound Soon To Sup plant Fifty Native Tongues
 of the Archipelago.

Mohonk Lake, N, Y. Oct. 22-ftThe Language Problem in the Philip pines was one of the subjects of dis cussion at today's session of the Lake Mohonk Conference on the Indian and Other Dependent Peoples.
 Dr. c. Everett Conant, professor of Modern Languages in the University of Chattanooga, who was formerly government translator and interpreter at Manila, said:
 There are more than 50 native languages of the Malay-Polynesian family spoken in the Islands. The majority of these languages are so different from 8one another as to be mutually unintellfgibIe. There is be- sides an indefinitely large number of local dialect varieties of speech, many of which are rapidly becoming extinct owing to increasing intertriba1 inter- courses.
 Fully 90 per cent of the Philippine Malays still speak their native tongue in the home. The language situation is therefore a, real problem. A com mon medium of speech is essential for the social, commercial and political unidcation of the polyg1ot peoples of the islands. Before American occupa- ton the Spanish language served only to g. limited extent as a common language, as only a comparatively small number of the population had the opportunity to learn fit.
 f'In recent years there has been much talk of adopting Tagalog. the language of Manila and the surround ing country, as the common language of the islands, but very few of the six millions of non-Tagalogs are in favor of the movement. for although Taga1og is the speech of the capitol, it is spoken by less than one-haIf as many people as speak Bfsaya (Visa- yan1.
 ..The adoption of an artificial Ian. guage, like Esperanto, while advo- cated by few. has never been seriously considered by the people as a whole.
 Since the introduction of the American public school, the problem of a common medium of speech has rapidly been approaching solution. While most of the school children speak their native languages in the home, they use English in conversing with children whose native language differs from their own. Thus, while the indigenous svernaculars will live on for many generations-per for centuries-Eng1ish is destined to be- come in the neAr future the Hngua franca of the entire archipelago"
