MANY ROWING DATES
American and English Oarsmen Sched-
ule Long List of Meets.

uAC ALOIs 1lSL VI 4NlSNeles
New York Jan. 21.-ColIegiate and
amateur rowing dates for the coming
season will be assigned at conferences
of oarsmen associations to be held
here within the next few weeks it was
learned today Owing to the possible
ity of considerable international COM
petition this summer. the arrangement
of the customary regattas is one of
unusual difficulty. 1t appears proba-
Bile at present that the United States
will be represented at both the Eng
lish Henley and the Olympic rowing
championship.
With these foreign invasions in
view, local regatta dates must be
scheduled TO conform with the Euro
pean events as far as possible. This
is the task that confronts the officers
of the various rowing bodies, includ-
ing the inter-c collegiate rowing asso-
citation and the American rowing asso-
citation which meet here next week.
The same problem will be considered
at the meeting of the national asso-
citation of amateur oarsmen which
holds its annual conference later.
While it is realized that none of the
varsity Fights of the eastern colleges
can compete at 1.-The English Henley
owing to the proximity of that event
and the championship regattas of the
university crews, the Olympic events
are a magnet that is already proving
a strong attraction for the oarsmen.
Several college rowing authorities
have expressed a willingness to permit
their crews to continue training after
the final inter-varsity races if the
American Olympic committee will lend
| assistance in financing the trip to Bel
GUM.
What action will be taken on the
point cannot be forecast but the ma
| jority of regatta dates are being fixed

P0LYGAMY IS DROPPED
Girls in the Philippines Are Aban-
doning Old Ideas.
UpIift Through Education and Assocs-
alton With Christians Affecting
Even Sultan Of Sulu's DOMAINE

Manila, P. I.-Practice of polygamy
In the Philippine islands is being re-
duced through education Of girls OF
the leading families Of the outlying
provinces. according to Frank w. Car
penter. retiring governor Of the de-
partment of Mindanao and Sulu.
Mr.. Carpenter is here to turn over
administration Of his office to the sec
rotary Of the interior, who will act
through the bureau Of non-Christian
tribes, in accordance with a new terri
torial law.
This law leaves in effect a treaty
under which the sultan OF Sulu re-
nounced all pretenslons to temporal
sovereignty. but gained recognition as
ecclesiastical head Of the Mohamme-
dan church In the Sulu archipelago.
The treaty guarantees to the sultan
and his people "the same religious
freedom had by all adherents Of all
other religious creeds. the practice OF
which is not In violation of the basic
principles OF the laws of the United
States"
ut is important to note" said Car
penter in one OF his messages written
as governor, "that this includes a lin
itation as TO religious practice which
necessarily includes the abandonment
Of polygamy.
"An effort to impose upon the peo-
pie of the sultan at this time the In
valuation of polygamous marriages
heretofore contracted, the prohibition
at this time Of polygamy or the dis
continuance OF divorce. must unavoid-
ably result in the active resistance OF
a people imbued with fanatic determi-
nation TO die rather than submit to
privation of their religious liberty In
matters they believe TO be fundamen-
tai and sanctioned by divine author
ity."
Mr.. Carpenter said that girls OF
prominent families in Mindanao and
Sulu are being sent TO Manila public
schools where they associate with
Christian girls and gradually become
imbued with the homogeneous Ideas
held by the Christians. When they re-
turn 10 their own people their infiu-
ence tends TO eliminate plural mar
riages, according TO Carpenter, who
predicted that the practice will be vir-
tually wiped out in the course OF a
few years.

cal as its interest In farm studies re-

washington.-Unlike campaigns will
be conducted this year by the rival
candidates for president Of the two
big political parties. Senator Hard
ing. the Republican nominee. will stay
at home in Marion, Ohio, while Gov
ernor Cox, the Democratic candidate,
will take to the stump.
These announced programs make Of
interest the experiences Of the rivals
in the past, and yet a comparison does
not prove the efficacy Of either. What
has been victorious for one, may have
meant defeat for the other.
When Washington was first elected
president In 17SS, the campaign, such
as II was, was confined TO a strip Of
country 200 miles wide, from Massa-
chusetts to Georgia. Then, the popu-
lation was four million, and now the
country, ten times as great In area, Is
more than twenty-five times as large
In population. But this difference in
territory and population is more than
Offset by improved transportation, and
the accessibility of the people through
the daily press.
Twice Washington was elected unan-
imously. When he left office, the po-
litical parties had lined up. but 1t was
for Andrew Jackson, the fighting Dem
ocrat, to be the first candidate for
president to change the method Of
campaigning, which before his time
was conducted with considerable de-
corum.
John Adams and Thomas Jefferson
did not try the stump, because, we are
told, neither was an orator. Henry
Clay, however, was great speaker,
but was silent while candidate.
Jackson and Harrison toured their
own states, but did not attempt long
tours. Cass, Scott, Fillmore and Blu
chanan made u number of speeches,
but in 1856 Fremont kept still and let
his friends do the campaigning.
