whould b. managed rr the benefit of
th inlands.
From the outset however the com-Hyp-elon
believes it mfe ami desirable
o expend to the FiLplnos larger lib-
erty of self government than Jefferson
approved of for the inliabltants of
Louisiana assuming that in the Sulu
Hiroh1pelaKo and such portions of the
ither Islands as are occupied by tribes
of Indians th government will be con-
id u cited through the agency of their
sultan or chiefs. The cximnVsslon be-
lieves that the people of the remainder
f the Inlands should be permitted to
elect at least member of the lower as-
sembly w1Ui such safeguards in Ameri-
can hands and a qualified veto power
for the governor genet al Including the
right to suspend Ute law for a year
even after Its pasewge by a Vote of two
thirds of 'tire legteiaiture over his veto
'this plan of government which is on
'the lines of the constitution prepared
)' those Filipinos who sought to ad-
just the claims of the insurgent leaders
to the right of Anferloan sovereignty
"would be adquate for the purpose of
Bood government. This is especially
true the commission soya since con-
Ktcp may nnd should retain the right
to veto territorial legislation. Nearly
all the offices will under this form of
government be filled by Flllp'nos
(themselves and the merit system must
lie adopted "and lived up to. The pat-
ronage or spoils system the commlss on
eaye would prove fatal to good govern-
ment in the Philippines. The oom-
anlsaion suggests that a civil service
Tjoard to uncertain by competitive ex-
amination of a practical character the
tluallflcaMons of Filipinos seeWng of-
fice should be instituted and that there
Bboukl he promotlonH for merit and
tenure during the efficiency and good
ibebavfoT. The omall number of Ameri-
can offidaJs needel woukl include in
the ilrst group governor seoremry at-
torney general certain Judge 'and other
officials of the territorial government
and in the (FeeJond group heads of postal
custom and other departments. The
officers of the flnt group should be ap-
pointed by the president and of the
Hecond transferred from the home ser-
vice. In neither use whoukl ithero be
examination. The commission cB.e uhe
oaee of British Itidte. with an nreo- of
1600000 square nillae and a popula-
tion of 300.000000 where the executive
ind Judicial work is performed by a
(thousand British officials to show that
only a small nurrtbtr of American
would be needekl "as the dreottng brain
oi the civil administration.
The 'commission reaches the following
conclusions:
1. The United States cannot with-
draw from the Philippines. We are
there and duty hlda us remain. There
la no escape from our responsibility to
Uhe FiltpiJnoa and to mankind for the
Eovornmont of the archipelago.
2. The Filipinos are wholly unpre-
pared for independence and if Inde-
Vslence wore given to them they
tould not mta-lntaln It.
Under the third head is Included a
copy of Admiral Dewey's letter to
iJenator Lodge whloh was read in the
senate the other day denying Aguin-
alda'a claim that he was promised In-
dependence. 4. There being no Philippine nation
hut only a collection of different peo-
ples there is no general public opinion
in the nrehipetago; but the -men of
property and education who alone In-
terest themselves In public affairs in
general recognize as indiepensible au-
thority guidance and protection.
5. Congress ehoukl at the earliest
practigal tione provide for the Philip-
pines th form of jpvrnmenJ6 Herein
recommended or another equally liberal
land benellcient.
6. Pend ng nny action on the part of
jngres the commission recommend
the president put fn operwthm this
Mheme of civil government lit mich
parts of the archipelago as ire at
peace.
7. So far as the finance of tlw
Phlttppme penroit puhllo education
should be nromptiy established and
wh-n estahUJjd made frne to all.
K. Tlie greatest care should lie taken
In uhe sefcetlon of officials for adm n-
Jetratore. They should he men of the
highest diameter and fltnoes and par-
tisan poUdes should he entirely epa-
rated from the government of the
Philippine.

For year j I have felt that I oucht to write you a testimonial for the benefit of women suffering from ailments peculiar to their sex. My wile miscarried with her first
child. Iter feet hands face and whole body swelled so bad she could not stand on her feet. The doctor said she had the dropsy lie doctored her (or three or four
weeks. I asked him If Wine of Cardul would help her. He saidt "It's not worth a d ." Seeing my wife steadily going down hill I went to our drugeistand told
him of the doctor's remark. The druggist said his wife owed her life to Wine of Cardul that it had twice saved her and for me to take a bottle of It and II it did not
help my wife he would give it to me. Before she had taken a whole bottle she was able to pick cotton and did at times pick 250 lbs. a day. Alter our next boy was
born wife had the falling of the womb. The doctor examined her and said she was so bad she would have to wear a supporter. I thought we would try Wine ot Card tl
again and got her another bottle and that bottle brought her back lo good health before it was used up. With the next child she used it to prevent miscarriage with
good results. Alter the child was six months old she began to IIoJ badly and kept it up for months. We got Wine of Cardul again and it brought her around stout
and well. Our last little girl is two months old. Wife has been weak all the time with aching limbs weak back and no appetite trembly spells etc. We got Wine
of Cardul four days ago and already It is showing Its wonderful effect. My wife looks at this great medicine as an "Angel of life." We have gotten many of our friends
to use it. The same doctor that said it was no good is now using it in his practice A. M. EDWARDS
so long u the existing chanm remains
between the economics and social con-
ditions of the Philippine nnd thoe of
the United States so long it remains
impracticable tto identify tlieir tariff.
They therefore recommend that for
the present at least no attempt be
made to readjust tdte tariff 'to our
basis

LONDON FEE. 1 In the house of
commons Ujday Mr. Broderlck affirmed
the accuracy of a statement of Count
Von Buelow the Gerrraun indnlnter of
foreign affairs as to the British en-
gagements regarding searching vessels.
He explained that the government un-
dertook fthaJt itheire should not be any
search at Aden or ait points more dis-
tant from title seat of war. The gov-
ernment he added hod nut surrendered
any right. On Uie representations of
tihe German government tuKl nssu nances
of ihe mail steamer company Great
Britain had agreod pending further
arrangements not to arrest maJl ships
except on the gravest susplslons.
Mr. Broderlck ulso iini'd 'the govern-
ment had mi knowledge of any com-
munication having passed between the
Netherlands and other governments
with relnf.lon to the war.
Attempts mnde to lllum'nnte the con-
nection of Mr. Joseph Chamberlain
wltJh the Jamison raid did not meet
with much success.
Mr. Chamberlain -being asked Jn re-
gard to a letter sent by "Mr. B. F.
Hawksley count! 'for (the British South
Africa company to Barl Grey formerly
Brlfsh administrator of Mnsholand in
which he mid tlrrut Mr. Chamberlain
would have no one hut himself ':o
blame if the cable dispatches of 1895
were produced before the parliamen-
tary committee replied that they were
communications between third parties.
John MacNe.il aaitt-Parnellte mam-
ler for South Donegal enlivened the
session by asking quasrtuns regarding
the Irish mrlitia. Among other things
he asked why the Irish militiamen Avere
nt away from Ireland to which
WMliMm Johtufcon promptly Interjected:
"Because they wre rebels."
This caused Mr. John Dillon Irish
nations licit to exclaim: "Irish rebels
are good enough for you to fight be-
JiHid In i. he Tranevanl!
The debate on the amendment to the
address in reply to the speech from 'the
throne "was then resumed.
After Mr. Jame Briee. llboral mem-
ber had wrverely censured the govorn-
mont for "provoking an unjust war'
Mr. George J. Goschen first lord of the
admt'rality declared thnlt the oablnot
assumed full responsibility and pro-
ceeded to rebut the charges of provo-
cation. At this Juncture the Irish
monitors showed a dlsiioaltion to dis-
turb the proceedings.
Mr. Redmond invited Mr. Gosohun
to try U talk sense whereupon the
speaker Mr. Gully ranonstralted and
air. Bwdmond withdrew his expression.
Continuing. Mr. Goschen assured the
hours that since the outbreak of the
war there had been an unbroken tension
at he admiralty. They haul regard
for the situation at the polrft of vlaw
of the empire and nut firom tlhat of
South Africa atone. It would have
been a crknjnw act to do otherwise
but It would be unwise to parade their
fiteenpth.
If Germany or any of the great
powers had been in our posMton woukl
hy have been more patient?" Mr.
Goschen asked. He then said he real-
ised the position was serious hut he
addvl there was no reason for a Deal-
ing of insecurity. While the navy was

A MILLIONAIRE
Wlioie ICntlre WiMilLli Wu Invonted In
tho Paper on II la Wall.
"WI1II0 In Johannesburg 1 saw a
sample of what was probably the most
valuable wallpaper over used In a
house" say8 a traveler recently ro-
ttirnod from South Africa "It was a
share certificate In one of the richest
gold mines of the fland. In the early
days an Englishman who worked In
one of the first mines opened took
his pay partly in caBh but chiefly lu
Bcrlp of shares of tho company. For
many years tho mine yielded little
and the company was unable to pay
dividends. Aftor a time tho Bngllsh-
nun got discouraged with wonting the
pick for these nicely engravod but un-
marketable pieces of papor and loft
the place for another part of the coun-
try where he continued to work hard
for a living barely making both ends
meet. The miner's wife ueod the
share certificates with some odds and
ends of prints from papers sent to
them In papering tho wnllB ol tholr
cabin and Uioy remained there as a
grim reminder of tho hollowneas ol
man's expectations. Thing got
worse and the minor nnd hli wife
were near starvation when one day
a broker newly arrived from ISngland
hunted up tho cabin and made an
offer for the wallpaper. The price he
mentioned was so largo ns to excite
the miner's curiosity nnd on JiivohU-
eatlon he found that lie was & largo
shareholder In one of tho most proilt-
able gold mlnos In tho world. He kopl
his share and today ho la one of the
biggest mining kins. H"t oven he
probably hug had no wallpaper sine
that time that represented as much
wealth aa did tho covering of tho walli
of his little cabin."
