For Politics Only.

In terming the Philippines scuttle a
shameful abandonment" Of a noble work
which would cause future generations OF
Americans to blush, Representative Nc
Arthur, Of Oregon, has stated the case
against the Clark bill vigorously and sue
cinctly. That project, to which the United
States is as much committed as the policy
Of the present Administration can commit
it, is a proposal for the benefit of pollti-
cians-of Democratic politicians here
who hope to make campaign material out
Of it, and of Philippine politicians of The
Quezon brand, who see ahead of them a
pleasing vista of jobs. appropriations, con-
cessions-all that political control can be
made to yield. What the result for The
Philippines and for this country would
be seems hardly to have been considered
seriously.
The Harrison administration in the
islands has already given much patronage
TO the Filipino politicians. Inevitably, the
prestige of the United States has suf-
fered; the actual work Of government in
the Philippines. for which the United
States is responsible. has suffered likewise.
Tribal jealousies have been fomented.
This is merely foretaste of what may be
expected if the pending bill should actu-
ally be adopted and the flag hauled down.
A population with radical racial and
religious differences, inferior in civiiza-
ton to the Mexican poems, used for cen
turtles to being ruled, will be unable to
assume the responsibilities of government.
Factions will quarrel over the spoils. The
head-hunters will resume operations. Riot
and revolution will spring up. Amerl-
cans who have in recent years done 50
much 10 develop and civilize the Phil
ippines. accurately interpreting the signs,
arc already preparing to evacuate the
territory as soon as news Of the bills be-
coming a law reaches them.
Congressman who back this bill seem TO
be going on the theory that the people of
the islands are an entity, capable of united
action, DESTROYS, in general, Of political
autonomy. 4NOthiHS OOulN ~ III WIZ
from the fact. Most of them are as in
different to any project for self-govern-
ment as they are incapable Of taking part
in it. Philippine autonomy is merely an
excellent slogan for Philippine politicians.
If the Democratic leaders want to hand
over the islands to the Filipino politicians,
regardless of Americas pledges and du-
ties. they should at least stop talking
glorified nonsense about it and get down
TO facts. The United States undertook a
lob there which it is doing tolerably well.
If it backs out the country will deserve
no crown of laurels for heroic action-it
will deserve the reward of the simpleton
who is buncoed into quitting.

Roosevelt, True Citizen.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: | am heart and soul with your many
letters on Colonel Roosevelt. ] consider him
the foremost American citizen OF to-day. His
fight for righteousness and honesty in pub
lie affairs, his sterling integrity and love
Of country, his fearlessness, his patriotism
are qualities that proclaim him the true
citizen.
Our country to-day is dishonorcd in the
eyes Of the civilized world by reason OF a
weak Executive. The person who is respon-
siblc for this condition Of our country to-
day IS Boss Barnes, a person who is not
worthy 10 loosen the latchets OF Colonel
Roosevelts shoes. ! carried gun during
our Civil War, and cast my first vote for
Lincoln for President. am member OF
two defence leagues lately organized, and am
recruiting for them. | would not honor
Boss Barnes by asking him to become a
member of either. His sneering remark that
Colonel Roosevelt is a perennial candidate
shows spite and hatred.
Is not Boss Barnes an unceasing candidate
FOR political power or ofic. and influence
Let those who have the right throw this
Jonah out Of the Republican party. and
the organization will be the better for it.
In my school days there was piece We
used to declaim, "Renzi," by Miss Milford:
yet We are Romans. Why. in that elder
day 20 be Roman was greater than king!"
SO may say at the close OF our Civil War
to be an American citizen was greater than
to be king. We had an army and navy
superior to any nation on the globe and

TWO SMALL FIRES
CALLED BOYS OUT
Roof on Japanese Laundry,
and Reinhoel Grocery
Damaged

"Where's the fire. demanded the
chief as the auto pumper came TO stop
in front of the Japanese hand laundry
at 445 Ferry street, last night at 6:45
o. o'clock.
''No fire." replied the Jap as he
stood in the doorway and beamed on
the chief.
The latter allowed his gaze to drift
upward. A wreath of smoke was curling
under the roof. He yelled to the fire
men and dashed upstairs. 1t took half
an hour to put out the fire which had
started around q flue and gained consid
erable headway beneath the tin roof.
The Jap didn t know his house was
afire until the department arrived and
wouldn't believe it then. Peter Andre
sen, engineer in the Bank of Commerce
building turned in the alarm as he saw
the flames from neighboring build
ing.
The building is owned by Frank
Hughes. Loss will be about 800.
Later in the evening the department
was called to Capitol and Union streets
TO fight stubborn blaze in the Rein
hoel grocery store. The loss is estimat-
ed at about 5000

TO WARD OFF SUMMER
COMPLEXION ILLS
x 4 x x x x * x y x X X x

To keep the face smooth, white and
beautiful all summer, there S nothing
quite so good as ordinary mercolzed
wax. Discolored or freckled skin, so
common at this season, Is gently alb
sorbed by the wax and replaced by the
newer, fresher skin beneath. The face
exhibits no trace of the wax, which is
applied at bedtime and washed off
mornings. Greasy creams, powders
rouges, on the other nand, are apt to
appear more conspicuous than usual
these days of excessive perspiration.
Just get an ounce of mercolized wax
at any drugstore and use like cold
cream. This will help any skin at
once and in week or so the complex
ion will look remarkably young and
healthy.
Sun, winds and flying dust often
cause squirting and other cOntortions
which make wrinkles. You can quick
ly get rid of every line, however caus-
ed, by using harmless wash lotion
made by dissolving ! oz. powdered sax
olite in l-2 pit, witch hazel.
