Bill Before Congress an Outrage
and Betrayal of Our
Trust.

From no point of view" said DR..
RAIDER last evening, '.are the FflipinOs
ready for self government. They are
making splendid progress along every
line. If we can only coach them
awhile longer, there is every reason
to believe that they will present such
an effective type OF democracy in the
Orient that all the surrounding people
will demand that form OF government.
Democracy to Break Down.
"If there is decrease in efficiency
and purpose just now, democracy in
the Philippines cannot help breaking
down. There are two score Or more
OF dialects in the Philippines that
have divided the people into clans or
tribes that have been more or less
warlike toward each other. Under
the American government, all these
people are learning English and are
therefore wiping out racial differ
ences. But they have not progressed
far enough as yet.
Just Beginning.
"The English speaking generation
is just beginning to come into proml-
nence. There is no question but that
the Spanish reactiOnaries will endeav.
or to undo all that our democracy has
accomplished thus far. The Philip
pines have reached the stage OF the
l5.year-old boy A boy might'be turn
ed loose at that age and make a sue
cess Of life. but the chances are all
against him.
Japan Would Benefit.
ut is the conviction OF not only all
the Americans In the Philippines, but
OF large number Of the lFilipinos
themselves, that immediate independ-
ence would result in their speedy alb
sorption by Japan.
'rhere is strong national spirit
among the people. II it were not for
thai, there would be very little hope
for the future"
DIR. RAIDER is connected with the
Methodist Episcopal work. He has
been district superintendent at Manila
for nine years. The work Of the
church there has grown very rapidly.
The church has now nearly 10000
members in the Philippines.
1.-The Filipinos are spiritual
minded people," he continued, land
very susceptible to the influence of
the gospel. They are very musical
people also.
Stamped Out Disease.
''The death rate in the islands has
been reduced 60 per cent, record un-
excelled in any country. They have
stamped out smallpox, cholera plague
and other tropical diseases. The pro-
gress along this line has been remark
able. - 5'lr,
Thirteen years ago there were
more than 5000 lepers at large. Mr..
Taft said that the first thing to be
done was to segregate them. They
were collected from all of the islands
and taken to Culion. a small island
that was given over to them. They
have a republic of their own and
every comfort is given them. The
department of science at Manila has
performed wonders in experimenting
in leprosy. The germ has been sep
arated and for the first time treat
ment has been applied and cures ef-
fected in several instances. For in
stance, more than ZOO cases were
cured and sent home.

That the fighting before the fortress

before the communication was issued,
the Russians had lost 5000 men killed.
West Front Quiet.
Both Berlin and Paris report that
there have been no important develop
ments on the battle line in France
and Belgium. On the Russian front,
there have been artillery engagements
and isolated infantry attacks at var
iOus points.
The Italians are still engaged in
shelling the positions taken from
them recently by the Austrians on tho
Rombon sector.
That one of the Zeppelins in the
recent raid on England was damaged
by the British gun fire, and another
lost at sea, and that there is good
reason to believe another had been
damaged and had been put out of ac-
ton, was the statement made in the
house of lords by Earl Kitchener, the
British war secretary.

Germany has notified. the. Dutch
government that the investigation OF
the sinking of the Dutch motor vessel,
Arthemus, early this month, has estab.

Take Up Shipping.
The government again found itself
on the defensive in the house Of COM
mons today. Yesterday the subject
was air raids; today it was the con-
troll OF merchant shipping.
A score of members attacked the
governments method of dealing with
the merchant marine. Arthur j. Bal
four, first lord of the admiralty, and
Walter Runciman, president OF the
board of trade, replied to the attacks
explaining that while the situation
was far from being satisfactory, the
government was doing it's utmost to
make things better.
The complaints of the members Of
the parliament were mainly to the ef-

Washington, Feb. 17.-v5he United
States in its submarine controvers!
with Germany will laccept nothinl
short of full and complete agree
ment covering all the points for which
it has contended as to assurances
that the warfare in the future will be
conducted in accordance with the es

law.
In announcing txat. fact today, Sec
retary Lansing let it be known thai
the state department considers Ger

the Entente allies, to be Inconsistent
with the assurances given previously
by the Berlin government.

The tentative communication de
signed to end the Lusitania case, still
in the possession of Secretary Ian
sing, will not be accepted formally
until such assurances regarding the
future are given, although the com
munication in so far as it relates tC
the Lusitania itself is acceptable.
State department officials also con
slider that the Austro-Hungarian mem

not in accord with the assurances
given by that government in the ne
gotiations over the sinking of the
Italian steamship. ATtonA a--~,

Views Explained.
The views of the United States
were explained in detail today by
Secretary Lansing to Count Won Bern
storff, the German ambassador. The
ambassador was informed, it was in
dicated at the state department, that
the United States desires the Ger
man declaration regarding merchant
ships to be modified. ...
lOnlgnL IL was stated clHpniltledliJ
in TeutOnic diplomatic circles that
the Berlin foreign office would not
modify the declaration of their in
tention to sink armed ships or inform
the United States the previous assur
ances still were binding, unless Great
Britain should give assurances OF
some kind that submarine which
warns iEritish steamship armed os
tensibly for defensive purposes would
not be fired upon.
Another note from Sweden, has
been addressed to the state depart
ment through Minister Ekengren, ap
pealing to the United States for CO.
operation with the Swedish govern
ment and other neutral nations to
maintain the preservation Of rules OF
international law, concerning the pro-
lection of neutral commerce and navi'
cation.
Action is proposed particularly
against Great Britain because OF the
detention of mail by that country and
other aggressions against trade re-
garded by Sweden as unwarranted.
Secretary Lansing informed the min
lister, it was learned today, that he
could not answer the note until the
controversy with Germany over the
I.usitania case was settled.

SCHMIDT MAKES HIS .
FINAL STATEMENT
Former Priest Will Be Electro
cuted in Sing Sing Prison
Today.

New York, Feb. 11.-Hans Schmidt
the former priest, who is to be execut'
ed at Sing Sing prison tomorrow
morning for the murder of Anna Muel'
Ter, issued statement tonight
through his attorney, Alphonse e.
Koelle, declaring he was fully recon
ciled to die and willing to accept
death as retribution for his frailty."
Schmidt asserted, however, that ne
will be executed for "lieing and not
for murder" because Miss Mueller's
death resulted from an operation, and
adds:
Il felt wholly responsible for the
girls death, and in honor could not
drag those to ruin who took part in
the operation at my solicitation.

Oriqin OF Word Cigar"

The appeal of American soldiers in
Mexico for tobacco recalls the fact
that the word edgar" is derived from
a spanish word 'cigarral,' which
means garden, but how many know
from what "cigarral" Is derived?
When tobacco was taken to Spain
from the newly discovered America
the people planted it in their gardens.
When offering a smoke to a friend a
Spaniard would say, "Es de mi cigar.
raj ut is from my garden)." Through
misunderstanding on the part of for.
eigners this expression was corrupted.
The word "cigarral' was supposed to
refer to the tobacco and In time was
shortened to "cigarro" and finally to
cigar" "Cigarral" is derived from
the word "cigarra." meaning a grass
hopper, because the g~rasshopper
ahounded in the gardens and there
sang the loudest. The original Of

provided for this purpose. A wash
stand is provided, SO that the men
can wash up as they come in to their
meals.
From the Mushroom a door leads d.
rectly to the combination kitchen and
dining room. These two rooms r
combined so as to secure a large place
in which there will be plenty of room
to feed the large number of men that
are present at certain seasons of the
year, such as in threshing time. Such
a combination Is often made so that
the work of feeding a crowd of hun
cry men will be reduced as much as
possible. The combination here gives
a that is 20 by Is feet, which
will readily handle quite a few men.
This combination room can also be
reached from the front hall and from
the side porch.
One bedroom is provided on the
first floor and will be of considerable
use to the men who are kept on the
farm the year round.
The living is in the front part
of the house, and is cut off from the
back part by the hall, so that the pri-
vacy of the family is insured.
The stairs to the second floor are
in the front hall that opens to the
front porch. The second floor plan
calls for three bedrooms and a bath.
A central hall makes all the rooms
readily accessible. One of the fea-
lures Of this floor is the ample closet
