.. AZORES AT A sTanDsTlLL
Population Has Shown Little Change in Last century-Lost Trade in
 Sugar and Tobacco.

The population of the Azores is about 245, ,00O, the number of inhabi- tants having changed but little in the last century. and if anything. having diminished. This fact is probably due more to various political and social conditions than to climatic, agricul- tural. or other conditions of the islands. Tn the early days the Portu- guese literally raised cane" on the islands, and established a large sugar trade with England and other coun- tries. Tobacco and fruits were also produced in great quantities, but, with the discovery and settlement of Brazil and other South American countries, Portugal rather discouraged produc- tion in the Azores in order to aid her colonies in South America. With the sugar and tobacco trade snatched from them. the Azoreans began the cultiva- tion of the vine, and the making of wine and other liquors became one of the chief industries of the islands. The population consists mainly of Portuguese, Moorish. and Flemish set tiers, with few negroes and fair sprinkling of English settlers.

Novel Apartment Building.

A San Francisco woman realty oper- ator has planned novel building. Her idea is to utilize steep bluff $50 feet high. On 1t she proposes to erect a series of apartments running in stair step fashion from the street down to the water Of San Francisco bay.
 It Is proposed to have each apart ment equipped with its own elevator entrance. pergola and roof garden, with a glass-covered inclined elevator connecting all with the private wharf for fishing and boating. Other fsa- lures projected are specially warmed sea-water bathing tank and glass in- closed and a heated playground for children on the beach. Steam heat, hot water, laundry, gaSage, billiard. club and ball rooms are to be provided as matters of course. The site com mands fine view of the Golden Gate and the sea outside, according to the prospectus, and 1t is said the apart ments, which will rent at prohibitive (for most of us) price, are already under lease, even before the building has been started.-Kansas City Star.

 There are hundreds of thousands of acres of land lying Idle in the Philip pines, which have greater area of fertile land than Japan-this in spite of the fact that the population of the Philippines is 11,o0000 while that of Japan Is around 55,000,O00 There in every reason to believe that some day the Philippines will have a population as large as that of Japan today. The Tilipinos are the only Christian people in the orient, and their young men are working night and day to preparw themselves for the responsibility ef citizenship in the Philippine Republic, which they believe to be near at hand

No, reader, this corn was not grown by one of our local farmers It wasn't grown in the United States, even. It was grown in the farofr Philippine Is- lands by Filipino schoolboys. Two fine crops of corn year are produced in the Islands.
 The Philippines are doing some won- derful things in the agricultural line. The Philippine government has fine az rfcultural schools throughout the is- lands, and the Philippine legislature, composed entirely of Filipinos, is each year making larger and larger appr'- priations for this important work.
 The staple food of the islands Is rice, but corn is coming right along in popu- lar favor. Its use was given great i'm petus in the last year because of rice

This is the season of the year when the Philippines become the playground for the entire orient It is carnival season in Manila.
 In 1908 the first Philippine carnival was held on historic Wallace Field in Manila in February, when the climate of the islands is at its best, and each succeeding year there has been larg- CT and more elaborate celebration. The 1920, or Victory Carnival, will be the greatest event of its sort ever held anywhere in the Far East
 There are commercial and govern ment exhibits in connection with the carnival, and on no other occasion is it possible to gain at once such a com prehensive idea of the production and

development of resources of the archi- pelago as that which Is offered the visitor at the carnival city.
 In the evenings the carnival becomes the center of Philippine and oriental social activity. A huge open air audi torium serves for the elaborate nightly balls, and on its mammoth floor thou sands of couples swing together to the strains of music furnished by the fa- mous Constabulary and other military bands. Probably at no other place in the world will one see an equally lm- pressive cosmopolitan spectacle.
 The Manila visitor who can plan his trip to arrive at the Pearl of the Orient for carnival time may well deem him self fortunate.

A ROBUST AMERICAN.

IN AN interview in yesterdays Herald H. o. Bursum, republican
national committeeman from New Mexico, gave his impression OF
: Senator Harding, gained at first hand during the notification
ceremonies at Marion. These are the Impressions rapidly gaining
gbund throughout the country; that the republican nominee us
of the finest type Of robust, sincere Americansm, with the ability
to state his policies plainly and the courage and vigor 20 carry them
out IL he is elected. There is a strong trend toward Harding even
at this early stage of the campaign. Such trends are easily noted IN
this nation where the people are quick to grasp the character OF a
candidate. This trend, or drift as political observers term it, is
noticeable in the Rocky Mountain states where Senator Harding is
least known il is quite plainly noticeable in New Mexico. The re-
publican candidate is of the type that most commcnds itself to the
American people. He has come up from the ranks and has won upon
ability and high character, not great wealth, but great respect
among the people of his home state; in the senate where he became
n powerful factor very quickly.
As the returns from his address of acceptance come in, through
the editorial comment of the country and from leaders of his party in
all sections, II is clear that Senator Harding has made n profound
impression upon the nation; an impression of sound, common sense
Of balance and Of clear thinking, together with a thorough under
standing Of the present most pressing needs of the nation. Adverse
comment upon the Harding address is confined entirely to the parts
an opposition. It is plain that republicans are united in his support
1t will not be surprising il Senator Harding election in November
is by an overwhelming majority. Elections sometimes go that way in
the United States and when they DO it is usually forecasted by such
a trend or drift as just now is clearly noticeable toward Harding
throughout the country. His campaign has all the marks Of a
winner.
