AGulNALDo's GOOD SENSE

In connection with the continued agitation for
independence of the Philippines. General Emilio
Aguinaldo and the organized body Of veterans of
the Philippine Revolution of 1899 have resolved
! 10 refrain from opposition to Governor General
I, Wood.
The radical element which seeks independence
has charged that Aguinaldo is thus placing an
obstacle in the way of Filipino aspirations through
his friendship for Wood. To this Aguinaldo has
replied that Wood is not against ultimate independ
enee, IL the Fipinos seek it through cooperation
instead of antagonism. In a recent statement
AguinaIdo said
my personal feeling is that we would gain
more and show capacity for existence and
independence in winning Wood over to our side in
stead Of antagOnizing him."
In this attitude the former revolutionary
leader shows good sense and his advice might well
be followed FiipinOs win not get very far on
the road to absolute independence by violent talk
action against the constituted authority of Uncle
! Sam. The really patriotic element realizes that
American rule would be only nominal right now if
the agitatOrs were eliminated. They also possibly
realize that the protection of the United States is
Of more benefit to them than an unstable indie
pendenee. menaccd by political adventures would
be.
Theoretically, the Fnpinos should have com
plete independence. Practically. at this stage Of
their development it would probably prove 10 be

PUBLIC LIBRARIES

Local citizens lodges and organizations of
every kind should extend the Womans Club every
aid and cooperation possible in the maintenance
Of the public library in this city. Key Vests pub
lie library is not what it should be- and it is up to
the people of this city to rally to its support help
the Woman's Club to get this very essential in
stitution upon substantial, busness-like basis,
raise its standard and increase its efficiency.
Forty-five per cent of the American people
have no access to any public library, according to
report presented before the Southeastern Library
association.
The American people clearly from the be-
ginning that there must be school in every town
ship, since education of the youth of the land is
essential to the success of democracy. But
education, properly conceived, does not stop when
child leaves school, 1t is only begun. There
should be facilities everywhere through which
adults can keep educating themselves right along
The library is almost as essential the school, and
it is strange that so many American communities
have not perceived that truth.
We have in America millions of people whose
minds at stage of arrested development They
their minds to a certain extent but when they quit
school they quit learning, and settled down into
state of mental inertia, which is harmful to their
own chances for advancement, and which prevents
them from developing into intelligent citizens.
Public libraries operate to keep such people
mentally awake and growing. Many of them of
course would never take books out of such an in
stitution, and yet their children probably would,
SC that the family would constantly be rising to
higher level of intelligence.
The states vary greatly in the amount of at
.tention they have given to library development.
Some states have placed a library in every town,
while in some they exist only in a small proportion
of the larger and more advanced places We need
nation wide movement to place library in every
for national progress
Key West cannot expect to advance along all
other lines if the constant cultivation of the in
tcilect is neglected. Intelligent people visiting
Key Vest expect to find the library here that the
city could well afford They are disappointed and
often inconvenienced because they do not find it
here. Every one appreciates the sacrifices made
and the loyal service of the present librarian and
friends of the library, and visitors are surprised
tc learn that the institution has regular and
substantial backing worth mentioning.
This state of affairs is a reflection upon Key
West and it should, and could, easily be remedied

DID WE FIGHT FOR NOTHING?

The impression seems to be entertained by a
good many people. that the United States made its
vast effort and sacrifices in the world mostly
for nothing. 1t is argued that we did not under
stand the conflict going in Europe, that were
misled as to the purposes of allies, and that
things are no better now than they at the
start, so that this country would much better have
kept out Of the whole foolish strife.
However, the German government invaded
neighborng countries contrary to its treaties also
for years the German government resisted all eff
forts to reduce armament. That government pro-
claimed the idea that nations attain prosperity
only through ability to defeat their enemies in
war.
AS long such a government in power
over country having such vast resources, and 50
trained for military action, it bound to be a
menace. 1t would keep adding territory, and
constituting more and more Of The
world could not make any substantial progress, so
long it being threatened by such power.
Conditions may seem bad over in Europe, but
at least they have thoroughly got rid of that
menaeing power. Nothing seems likely to take its
place. The Russian and Italian governments talk
in menacing way, but their people lack the re-
sources or desire to attack foreign powers. So
the world has reached the point where, if it will
just learn few lessons from the recent war; it is
in position where it can make substantial
progress.
This result could never have been attained had
rot America made its great sacrifices Time will
show that these sacrifices paid But considering
all that has happened it is not likely that the Unit
ed States win send an army to Europe again.
