SELF GOVERNMENT AP-
PRECIATED BY FILIPINOS
Now York World:

New York World:
We have not had TO wait long for
an answer to the doleful prophecies of
the opponents of the bill granting To-
cal self-govcrnment to the Philippine
Islands, which passed Congress in
August, 1916.
Six hundred thousand men were en-
franchised, the American commission
was abolished and natives were ad-
mitted to both Houses of the Legis-
lature. With a Constitution and a
Bill of Rights like our own, sovereign
ty at Washington was retained condi-
tionally for the purpose of guarantee
ing the independence and liberty of
the people.
Manuel Quezon, President of the
Philippine Senate, now constituted
mostly of natives elected by popular
vote but formerly appointed by the
President, notifies the United States
that $4,000 Filipinos are organizing
for war and will be ready and subject
to order in ten months. What this
means in military way and wholly
aside from the matter Of sentiment
will be appreciated by American SOL
diers who in times past have met
Filipinos in action. We have gained
more than an ally; we have acquired
a state.
When the Philippine Act was passed
Mr.. Quezon, then a delegate in Con-
gress, speaking with evident emotion
said it was the greatest blessing that
had been vouchedsafed his people in
the $50 years of their existence as a
nation. By adhering honestly and
courageously to our own democratic
principles in their case, We bestowed
bencdiction upon ourselves as well
as upon them.

THE DOGS OF WAR E

Red Cross Magazine
On all war fronts in Europe, up
ward of 10000 mcrciful dogs of war
are working, every one of them a
soldier. Some of them mentioned in
dispatches are decorated with the in
sigma of valor bestowed by their re-
spective countries. And most of them
are 'just dogs" queer mixtures of
Airedale, mastiff, bull and hound
with a touch of retriever here and
there; for it is character alone that is
demanded.
France has produced no greater idol
than Prusco, mongrel wolf-hound
that after one battle saved the lives
of more than 100 wounded soldiers
He located them where they had fall
len into brush and depressions from
which they were unable to crawl. One
after another he dragged to shelter
Thus the name of Prusco-"just dog"
has become immortalized on the re.
cords Of the army of France.

MIR. WILSON'S REPLY

Perhaps the strongest statement in
the presidents message to the pope
that statement that will be remembers
ed longest, is:
"The object of this war is to de-
liver the free peoples of the world
from the menace and the actual power
of vast military establishment, con-
trolled by an irresponsible government
which, having secretly planned to
dominate the world, proceeded to car
ry the plan out without regard, either
to the sacred obligations of treaties,
or the long established practices and
long cherished principles of inter
national action and honor, which chose
its own time for the war, delivered its
blow fiercely and suddenly; stopped at
no barrier either of law or of mercy;
, swept a whole continent within the
tide of blood, not the blood of soldiers
only but the blood of innocent women
and children, also, and the helpless
poor, and now stands baked but not
defeated-the enemy of four-fifths of
the world"
The above quotation will go down
in history as one Of the strongest in
dictments of the German military
power ever written.
New York Times: "To the pope's
proposal that the allies meet Germany
in friendly and mutually trustful ne
gotiation the president answers that
there is no one to negotiate with. On
one side there are men whose words
can be taken, on the other are men
whose words cannot be. The negotia-
! tion would result in scraps of paper.
When that government Germany
went morally bankrupt, it left a vac
ancy on the other side of the peace
conference table. There is no one
there; there is no one whose word we
can take. The German people can fill
that vacancy if they will; but until
they give us negotiator whose word
is as good as ours we cannot exchange
pledges over that table. We are done
with trickery and broken oaths."
New York Sun: "In his answer to
the pope, President Wilson has hit the
nail on the head. What Mr.. Wilson
said in his first declaration of war,
that we fight not the German people
but the rulers of the German people,
he makes still palmer now"

The editor of the Mining Congress

and will deprive mining communities
from receiving money that they ought
to have, and will work an unneces-
sary hardship and that there is no
call for legislation of that kind any
way. So you will see am not going

II you can collect any data to help
Mr.. Taylor, or secure the passage of
any resolutions by public bodies, now
is the time to do it. 1t is not true
that there are idle men who would
be deprived of jobs. On the con-
trary it is almost impossible to get
men to do the mining and actual de-
velopment work on hand, much less
dig thousands of ten foot holes or do
other waste development work that
gets nowhere, and has only been de-
manded in peace times so that per-
sons would not hold good ground in
a sort Of dog-in-the-manger manner.
This situation is different. Write Mr..
Taylor If you are interested.
