The Press and Banner. By W. W, and W. R. Bradley. HUGH WILSON, Editor. % ; ABBEVILLE, S. C. 1 c aTl'nbilshed every Weduesdt1 ??. fl year In advance. Wednesday, July 20, 1904. The PbilipplueM. A plank of the Democratic Platform touch Ing the disposition of the Philippine islands Insists that we should do for the Filipinos what we have done for the Cubans, and tbat It Is our duty to make such a promise now with suitable guarHDtles of protection to I citizens of our own and other countries recIdent there at the time of our withdrawal. It j states further tbat we should 6et the Filipino people on their feet, free and independent, to work out their own destiny. The Filipino has had a taste of self government, and th<result Is that he is afraid of It. Now be would like very much to have self government if he had at the same time the United States Army to back him in keeping In line all ' ? 1~ inanrfocl. maicom.uukts.auu ?u rtuuuum* orsand in guaranteeing protection to his life and property. This In reality Is tbe sell government the Filipino is clamoring for today. The Republican administration haitreated the Filipinos with more consideration than they deserve, In many Instances the government has made pets of tbem. Almost every thing they ask Is granted except self government. The Government holds out Its franchises and begs tbe Filipino to take them when Amerlcane are begging lor them. When tbe commercial Junta of Hollo asked some concessions In behalf of that city, the Govenor wrote back "the Philippines lor tbe Filipinos." When tbe apprentices, young Filipinos, In tbe government Printing office In Manila asked that the Government give them boys to wash type, handle Ink, sweep and do tbe disagreeable work of tbe offices, tbegovernment granted their request, which is more than they would have done here. Tbefaolt of tbe republican party is not 1 to trootment of th? Flllnlnos Thfiv hRVF been treated like lords. Tbe trouble lies Id the Republican policy of developlug the Islands. Now comes the Democratic party wanting to tbrow away all tbe work the Republicans have done because it was done by Republicans?discard tbe Philippines; liberate the Flllpln^, wben today he is lreer than he ever was or will be, if he Is turned over to himself at this time. From tbe Democratic point ol view it would seem that tbe Cubans and Filipinos are one and the same people, bui such Is not tbe case. There are no Sultans, no slave holders, no bead hunters in Cuba. The Cubans bave no Malay blood in tbelr veins, and what would be good policy touching one might not be good for tbe other, k No. The thing for the Democrats to do is to B revise the tarlrt^ let In Chinese labor; aDd Sa t bus encourage capital to come to the Island. V This would do more to wake the FllipiDo from his lethargy than all else besides. He don't work; then make him work or starve him, and the Chinee Is the man to do It. Let tbe Government grant franchises to Americans to build railroads, run steamboats, out tl mber, mine, etc., and the Filipino will then come to bis senses and go to work; at present he knows nothing about such industries and does'nt care to know. Surrounded by tropical affluence be is satisfied to eke out an exlstance rather than risk a Peso on industries of any kind. We agree with Gov Taft in bis message. The Philippines lor tbe Filipinos, but we go further and say the Philippines for the Filipinos and Americans Let us derive so me benefit from the Islands We have paid a good price for them In blood and money and we should reap some reward. Tbe Philippine Islands produce a great many things which cannot be produced here and some things which are not produced else where in tbe world. As a business proposition we should intro duce into tbe Islands energetic labor and develop tbelr resources. To turn them loose absolutely Is to lose forever the millions we have expended on them. To develop them by an aggressive policy of Interval Improve menlwlllln time bring to this country a certain reward. >. Death of MImm Mary . Pritchar^l. Miss Mary C. Pritcbard died at tbe borne ol tbe Misses Cater In tbe city of Abbeville, four o'olock of the afternoon of Monday, July 18, 1904. Tbe funeral services were held at tbe home where she died on Tuesday morning. Rev P B. Wells, pastor of tbe Methodist church conducted the luneral services, assisted by Rev. J. iiowrle Wilson, D. D. pastor of the Presbyterian church. The burial took place at Long Cane cemetery, where the bodies of her father, mother and sister await tbe resurrection. In life they were united and in death tbey were not separated. Her two brothers, Mr. T. W. Pritcbard of Charlotte, and Mr. S. R. Pritcbard of Blacks' burg, Va., were with their beloved sister in her last hours. One brother was already here, * when she realized that the end was near. Friends Informed her that her other brother was coming and asked her to try to live until he would come. This sl^e readily answered In the affirmative, and when the brother came she recognized him and spoke wltb him, and then she fell into that great sleep wmcn men call deatn. Her father, Rev. C. H. Prllchartl, was a member of the South Carolina Conference^ and of course had no permanent abiding place, yet It is true that he and his wife and talB two rianffhtern rtIprt amnnpst n. neonlfi who loved and revered them. Because of the purity of hlB life and the sincerity ol bis friendship all loved the father and all nad the strongest attachment for the members of hlB household. Miss Mary C. Prltchard, whose death we now" announce, came to Abbeville several weeks ago on a visit to friends In Abbeville, and she made her home with the Misses Cater, between whom and the deceased a warm friendship existed. Miss Pritchard was known to be in leeble health, but if anybody bad any fears of an early dissolution we are not informed of the fact. Like her sainted father, she exemplified In her dally walk and conversation the beauty and the sweetness ot the religion thatglveB uh the hope that there is a spirit world for the blessed. In (he Race. Some of the Democratic newspapers believe that the Democratic Jackass will outrun the Republican elephant in November, or words to that effect. BILL10USNES3 IS DANGEROUS. ? When the bile 16 not flowing freely into the bowels, it is taken up by the blood and is deposited in all parts ol the body.
