money. To overcome their antiQuated
ideas of trade we have established
markets for them in the leading towns
where they meet to buy and sell.
Some day AIindanao will be one of
the leading countries of the world for
the production of rubber. The rubber
tree grows wild there in great pro-
fusion. Although the industry is as
yet undOmesticated, exports from a
single locality have reached nearly
100000 pounds in year. The island
also produces much hemp. as well as
tapioca, cOcoanuts and other tropical
fruits.
We have been successful in giving
railroads to that part of the Philip
pine archipelago occupied by the Fill
ipino. even though foreign capital had
to furnish the money, but we have
danao. the greatest and richest of the
islands of our insular frontier. Bor-
neO. distant only a stones throw from
ZambOanga, Mindanao's metropolis, is
far ahead of Moroland in everything
save natural wealth.
Mindanao has larger colony of
American planters, engaged mostly in
hemp cultivation, than any other spot
in the islands, Notwithstanding that
the people there have always been
hostile to trespassers. Many of these
have been wantonly murdered. but the
fatality list is growing less right
along, an evidence that the people are
being converted to new order of
things. Many of these brave Ameri-
cans started business on what they
saved from soldiers wage, and to-
day not a few of them are Oriental
nabobs.

Defended bv Human MALL

According to legend, the ancient
castle OF Hapsburg, overlooking the
Rhine, was founded in 1920, and was
without surrounding walls for defen-
sive purposes-a strange omission in
those warlike days. A friend, com
ing to stay at the castle, so greatly
deplored the absence of the usual de-
fenses that it's lord declared that, be-
fore sunrise on the following morn
ing, his stronghold would be surround
ed by impregnable walls. Naturally
the visteor smiled and did not believe

tn HERE was one rich and un-
ruly realm the Spaniards were
glad to rid themselves of fol-
lowing the battle of Manila
bay. The huge Island of MindanaO,
pronounced as though spelled Mind-a-
now, known in the Philippines as
Moroland, had the reputation of being
largely unconquered, as much by The
military as by the missionaries. The
MOros clung to their religious beliefs
as tenaciouSly as they opposed Span
ish domination in government, writes
Monroe Woolley in the Utica Satur-
day Globe.
But the Moro archipelago today is
not what it was when we first took
up stewardship there. This means
that it is not the uncOnQuerable en-
pire 1t was when the Spanish essayed
to rule and run it,
Known to and thoroughly explored
by white men for centuries past, Min
danao is today just beginning to be
lifted from a savage past into the
limelight of civiliz; ton. The rich
realm has never been exploited be-
cause the Inhabitants were always hos
tile to any outside interference. Min
danao, with the Sulu archipelago

worth reconstruction, and it is per-
haps this fact which has made US so

Largest of Philippine Islands.
Mindanao itself is the largest island
by far in the entire Philippine archi-
pelago. 1t is about the size of our
own state Of Mississippi, and is big
ger than Indiana or Ohio. 1t would
make seven states like New Jersey
and is by far much larger than sew
eral of our Atlantic coast states COM
bined. To be precise. it has an area
of 1921 square miles.

scholars. Datto Piang, one of the
powerful chieftains, has himself erect
ed two costly schoolhouses in Min
danao solely at his own expense. A
Moro doing anything of this sort in
olden times would have been hanged
by his own people.
Baseball Has Helped
Baseball has helped wonderfully
with the Moros, as it did with The
Filipinos, to cement affections for the
Americans 1t is claimed by learned
Filipino who recently toured Min
danao that in two decades the Wis
itor in Moroland will not be able. so
far as dress and manners are con-
cerned. TO distinguish Moro from a
Filipino. No American baseball fan
really knows what fun is until he is
privileged to see hotly contested
game of ball between Filipinos and
Moros and gives an attentive ear to
the game vernacular as it is spoken
by our wards in the excitement of the
sport.

the Moro is acquiring some chivalry

reached the acme of politeness when
he asked the popular daughter of one
of our ex-presidents, at the time Wis

blushing declination, at which the
dusky ruler was probably chagrined.
But the incident goes to illustrate that
the American. as well as the Christian
Filipino, is for the first time making
himself and his institutions accepta-
bic to the remade Mohammedans of
our farthest-fung frontier.
