Gratefully Accept His Declaration*. i mad Acts, Taking Them to be Full of Good Omen to Themselves and Their Country. The answer of the Phillipines to President Wilson’s message delivered through Geverno/ General Harrison came by cable Tuesday In the form of a resolution adopted by the Phil- lipine assembly. Emphatic belief In the right of the Filipinos to be free Is expressed In the resolution and the president’s words are gratefully ac cepted as "a categorical declaration of the purpose of the nation to recog nize the independent of the Island’’. The text of the resolution made public by the war department fol lows: “We, the representatives of the Filipino people, constituling the rhIUlpine assembly, solemnly declare that It is evident to us that the Kill ptno people have the right to be free »nd In 'ependent so that In advancing atone along the road of progress it » U on Its own responsibility work oai its prosperity and manage Its deiatlnlea for all the purposes of lit«.

We ara convinced that every onward ■tep while relieving the American government of Its responsibilities In the lalands, will, as In the past, fully demonstrate the present capacity of the Filipino to establish a govern- naeut of his own and guarantee in a permanent manner the safety under such government of the life, property and liberty of the residents of the Is lands, national as well as a foreign. “We do not wish to say by this that there will not be difficulties and embarassments, nor do we even ex pect that the campaign, open or con ceited, of the enemies of the Filipino cause will cease soon, hut we feel flmre that throughsa conservative use of the powers entrusted to us the PHlptno people will, with God’s favor aad the help of America, emerge tri umphantly from the test, however difficult It may be.” Good K tract. No Georgia Industries have been ahut down as the result of the new I'nderwood-Hlrqmons tariff bill, ac cording to country-aide reports On the contrary manufacturers every where appear to be optimistic as to the outlook. They assert that, with the period of uncertainty over, busi ness appears to be picking up. In the East mills are running as usual. £ugar beet farmers In the West are not pleased with the outlook of free sugar, but as this Is three years off they are not worrying. Steel mills are supplying the Increasing demand. In the South, where it was feared the new cotton schedule might cause trouble, manufacturers assert that the mills will do better under the new tariff than they did under th% Payne-Aldrlch schedules. High price of cotton In the South is mak ing that section of the country un usually optimistic. In Philadelphia not one plant has been shut down on account of the tariff. No industry In Northern Illi nois has shut down. The rumor that the Illinois Steel company was laying off men has been denied by the com pany. There is no evidence of a de crease in the demand for steel in the Pittsburg field, and there Is no Indi cation that portends a decrease in the near future.

Olemson College, through Its va rious professors and their extension bulletins, offer the farmers of the State a very good service, devoted practically to every farm need. Among the more recent bulletins is sued from their press is one dealing with the strawberry plant, and Its corrert planting in this State. Prof. F. J. Crider, Associate Professor of Horticulture, is the author of the fol lowing article: "A portion of every home garden should be devoted to the growing of strawberries. By planting the proper varieties and renewing the old bed, a continuous supply of fresh fruit may be had from early in the spring until late into summer. They are very e?sy to grow and do well on practi cally every kind ctf soil and In all cli mates. "From now until the last of Octo- bed Is the best time for planting. The strawberry plant delights in a cool season and if set during the fall will become well established bv spring and tie able to resist the drought which occurs more or less every summer Many failure are due to ttie fact that the plants are put out too late in the season "In selecting plan's for the new bed, only the strongest and best of the pres.-nt year * runners should be used To dtsDng’fsh new plan’s from the old 'he roots a r e always white In color whle those of oil plants are always b ack It Is deslr able prev'nus to p SOI Mf to ref, .ve all tb*. younger lea»ea allow.ng otilv a few o' t’e o'j*-r or.wu to r»n.s n wV. h w!". 1 «• * w n e> a po r a t! ■ > n a a,. •*.*> e r. * a ' t*-. e rivo'a ahoull t>* | a^ <-a r ed tn ' > sb .j' or * 'Mrd ' > on* ta'f !' t'ev are terj I •> - * W h 1 1 • p ar t! - g ca-'? ’be ; an’s a s put: oft TWENTY EIGHT KILLED Ship Was tin Final TrUl Pending Ac ceptance by G ornu4n Government. —Explosion Causetl by Ignition of Gas, Causing Airship to Drop 000 Feet.

The twenty-eight men repre sented the entire personnel of the admiralty board, which was to con duct the final trial of the dirigible looking to its acceptance by the gov ernment as a new unit of the Ger man aerial navy, the pilot and crew and invited guests.

No blunder that Con gress can possibly commit will kquM the error in such a case of an nb.tbet surrender to outside Influences. Op position to banking and currency re form now rests chiefly upon the as sertion that bankers and not politic ians must determine its scope and that banking principles and not polit ical principles must be our guides. Yet, says The World, the present scandalous financial system may be traced much more directly to bankers who have kept it alive. It. is bankers who for flTty yeays Ijave tailed or re fuse to improve upon it. It is b^nk-- ers in the mmn who haqe profited by It. If'we are to wait unt\l those, who are controlled only by. banking prin ciples get ready to act, tri^e reform will never be had. ,\Ve mi||^ ^t a central banking monopoly ^pi vthe course of time, but not much elSe. In this respect the banking and currency abuses resemble the tariff abuses, very recently cured. When those who had grown rich by the tariff lost at the polls, they held that what politicians had done politicians were not competent to un do It wvs argue! that taxes bur dening millions for the benefit of a few, originally imposed by plain rep resentatives of the people, could be removed or lowered only b> men of science It was admitted that thu ;eop|e of tie ’ n '♦•!

In response to Inquiries by mem bers of the board, the record showed that Mrs. Pankhurst detailed In brief the history of her life, particularly with reference to her activities in the cause of woman suffrage. She admitted having been Imprisoned five times for various offences against British laws, three times for attempt ing to present petitions for woman suffrage to the king or authorities of the British home office, the technical reasons for her arrest these times, was, she explained, interference with police. The last time she was ar rested she was charged with “con spiracy” for delivering addresses cal culated, to incite her suffragette fol lowers to acts of violence, to the de struction of property and possibly of life. She was convicted and sen tenced to three years’ servitude but was subsequently released when she Instituted her “hunger strike". She explained that while she was relied on what amounts to parole, she had delivered other speeches since her release and no obstacle waa laid in the way of her departure from Great Britain. “What was vonr purpe* i n coti- ing to the United State*”’ she was asked. “To tell the true «tory of the wo men'! light In BngUnd.” the replied. *'I come exactly aa Parnell aad R*4- off a* l b, * v app**- a. tbs' '!.* *nt!r*. s'r-wg'h of tb* p ant • b* V • *.

For the highest grade berries, the plants should be allowed to fruit only once and a new bed set annually. “In planting strawberries, there are a large number of varieties from which we may choose, yet only a comparative few are especially adapt ed to Southern conditions.
