Philippine Islands. 1
Washington, April 9.?General a
McArthur, in answer to a question J
by Senator Carmack, in the committee T"
of the Senate on the Philippines, said 1
that the Filipinos were by no means v
the corrupt, cruel, degraded race that ^
?
they have been described to be by
some of the men who have visited ^
?
the islands. They are a people of
considerable native intelligence, apt
and generous. General McArthur
0
believes that the occupation of the
islands by the Americans is of great
importance and that the American
people in the islands are to be the 1j
instruments of accomplishing great
t*
things.
The House Republican bill provid- v
ing for the civil government of the j
Philippine Islands, submitted today !
to the fall committee for consideration.
is different from the Senate bill
in some very important respects. It j
provides for a Philippine legislature g
as soon as peace shall have been establisbed,
in which the provinces of ^
the islands shall be represented.
The Senate bill as reported by a sub- ^
committee a few days ago provides
for the establishment of free coinage
of silver, but the House bill estabg
~^^ Tf o 1 cn r*r\vs
liKUCB bUt? ^UiU otauuax u* jlu oaov w?u ^
tains provision for the granting of
&
civil rights to the Filipinos.
The House decided by a vote of
q
177 to 80 to take up the matter of
* E
Cuban tarin in committee of the *
whole. The vote W39 not along party
lines, and would seem to indicate that
the Payne bill wili be passed. The q
fact was shown in the vote on the
question as to whether the matter c
should be taken up in committee of j.
the whole, that the Republicans will
need considerable number of Demo- .j.
cratic votes to carry tHe measure, it
was also shown that a number of the
Democrats will favor the measure. ^
Sixty-one of the Democratic members
voted for the motion to take up
the bill in committee of the whole, j.
and thirty-eight Republicans opposed
it.

It is said that Columbia will have 1j

this year. The more the merrier: I w
but Congressman Lever's friends say j ^
the voters of the district will not re- j *
move him until he shall have had a j *
fair trial. Mr. Lever has unquestion- |
ably been very active in the discharge !
of his official duties and he has
6
doubtless done as much as any one ^
else could have done under the cirr
cumstances. His record and the
i
general feeling that a man should !
have a fair opportunity to prove his | .
merits are both in his favor. I ^

To the Editor of the Dispatch. j (
Cousin Paul Craps. I am sorry to !
see you jump on our wise Legislators. !
I want good roads but it is wrong ! <3
I
>efore God, to charge the poor man
me dollar to keep up the roads,
^or people always have their house
ull of little children. Some men in
jexington county have no wagon
md no horse, yet they have got to
)ay one dollar to keep up the road
or the rich man. May God bless
he man that made the bill and all
rho helped to carry it out! Work
rour reads by taxation. Cut some
oen say it will help the negro. Well,
)ur Father freed them only thirtyive
veais a??o, and they don't get a
ortuce for their work now. Someof
heir children have hardly bread to
at, and what right has any man to
oake the poor white man pay a tax
o catch the coon. The poorest man
n theiState pays as much to keep up
he roads as the richest. It is not
ight and I hope the next Legislature
rill take off the dollar.

. Plain Talk; Very Plain.
Charlotte (N. C.) Observer.
This talk about the consent of the
governed is, when you get to the botom
of it, mostly rubbish. We
)eopie of the south, for intance, who
lave for years been cheating niggers
it elections and kept it up untill we
:oncluded that it was cheaper to disranchise
them by legal enactment,
tow shed crocodile tears on account
if woes of the Filipinos and cry aloud
hat ali just government derives its
.utbority from the consent of the
;overned.
The south didn't consent to the
government that it got for several
ears after* the Civil war. The
outhern negroes are not consenting
o the government they are getting
ow.
We talk about the consent of the
overned and taxation without representation
when these arguments
un our wa}: but we forget how often
hese principles have been
iolated in our own country today
rith oar approbation and as the reult
of cur own acts. Consent of the
overned! Taxation without repreentation!

A certain learned professor was intruding
a class of schoolboys about
he circulation of the blcod. To
nake sure that they understood he
)roceeded to question them:

Prcpossd ETew County.
Newberry, S. C, April 9?The
i question of the formation of a new
! county, fco be composed of portions
' of the present counties of Newberry,
| Union, Laurens and Fairfield, is bej
ing agitated a good deal by the peo.
pie of these counties living in and
i around the point where Newberry,
| Uniou and Laurens join. No definite
steps hare jet been taken, however.
Tee county seat of the proposed
new county would be Whitmires. j
i Taking Whitmires as a centre the j
j " ^
i county would be bounded by New|
berry, Lauren?, Union and probably
! Fairfield and the extreme eastern
point would probably reach nearly to
J the southwestern corner of Chester, j
As has been stated no definite j
8tep3 have been takeD, but the peo- i
! pie of the section to be embraced by ,
the proposed new county want to get |
i nearer a court house and are agitat:
ing the question a good deal among
themselves.

Cultivate Com Well.
A faimer should plan his work so j
the corn receives careful and thorough \
cultivation. The object is not merely ;
to kill the weeds, but to retain the !
I moisture in the soil. If cultivated |
land is left unmoved, it is only a mat- j
ter of time when all the available |
moisture it contains will Oeevaporat- j
ed. On the other band, if the suri
face is regularly stirred the inter- |
course between the atmosphere and |
' the soil moisture is cut clT to a very I
great extent, and thus the needed |
dampness is retained for plant |
growth. There are men who claim 1
they can aid a crop in a dry season i
to a material extent by regular cultiva- j
tion. They do it by keeping the i
surface well cultivated, and retaining j
j
the moisture. Cultivation is just as
important previous to planting as
afterward, for the seme reason.?Ex- !

Last fall I was taken with a very j

annoyance. After trying several
prescriptions and rheumatic cures, I
decided to use Chamberlain's Pain

the South Jerseyman. After two
applications of this Remedy I was
much better, and after using one
bottle, was completely cured.?Sallie
