! : the better or to make salutary laws
for th? ir government. Thc talk about
Americanizing the islands is heard
lit rc as well, but il mean- somewhat
. rc than when used by th? good pen
plo at hollie, for we recognize more
fully the dillicully ol' ?ts accomplish
ment, b'p tn thc present lime the Fili
pino? have as much \:\\\ pilli /.cd th? for
eigners as, they have forcigni/.cd thc
natives, so to speak. Their customs
arid habits, both social and commer
cial, arc fixed. They soon have their
influences upon newcomers, ami they
have affected in some degree the Kng
1 i sb and (?crinan business men of
Alanila.
Tho watchword ol' thc people of all
nations assembled here is .manana,"
"to-morrow." This Spanish word
seems to cast its paralyzing spell upon
ail countries where Spanish influences
prevail. Whether thc ancient Filipi
nos ever had a better appreciation of
the value of time or a higher Hense of
devotion to duty than they have now
is doubtful. At all events they have
for years learned thc lesson of delay
and insincerity from their Spanish
masters, until it is in the bone, blood
and flesh as deeply ingrained as though
their savage ancestors had transmitted
it to them a? a racial inheritance.
Strange to say that is, strange in thc
eyes of Americans-its blighting spell
has fallen upon the Europeans who do
business here, until they abo are as
indifferent to the pressing needs of thc
hour as the natives. This suggests
the thought that it maj' bc possible
that Americans coining here may he
I'ilipinized. as have been thc (lennans
and thc Knglish, instead ol' working
the great revolution so cheerfully pre
dicted. Certainly they will have the
forces of numbers, custom and climate
to contend with, and these are no
mean antagonists.
Let us take, for example, one cus
tom, that of the afternoon siesta.
Kven business bows to this. One can
go through thc chief business streets
between Iii and li o'clock and easily
imagine himself strolling on a Sunday
in an American town, with a well
enforced Sunday-closing law. Kven
the qtiilez drivers have gone home to
sleep. When thc hour of noon conics
the merchants politely follow their
customers to thc door and lock thc
portals, and open them mm again until
li, or, perhaps, .'. o'clock, liven thc
Knglish banks arc not open for busi
ness ?if importance between those
hours, ami if ?me enters the institu
tion ?>n business intent, one of the [li
llians snoozing on a bench will arouse
himself sufficiently to say that the
clerks have all gon?" to eat and sleep.
This he does by poking his fingers at
his mouth to indicate thc taking of
food in genuine Kilipino style, and by
laying hts head over to one side on thc
palm of his hand and closing his eyes,
to signify sleep. A little exclamation
of disgust may bring a compassionate
smile and "a las dos, .->cnor.'' which
means that he is sorry for you, but
you must wait until li o'clock.
A few davs ago I entered a photo
graph gallery, presided over by an old
Cennan and his two full-grown sons.
1 was going to say "operated by." but
"presided over" fits the case better,
for all three of them entertained mc at
thc .same time, and no work of any
kind was done during the half-hour I
was there. I mude a selection of lid
views from thc sample-book, and was
informed that they might possibly
have them printed for mc in two
months. I insisted upon one week,
but they shook their hoads and said.
"No: it is not possible; wc have so
much work so much trouble." Then,
it being 12 o'clock, one ol' them fol
lowed mc down stairs, locked thc ?loor
after mc, and all lay down to sleep off
thc afternoon. Of course, one knows
that in the tropics one must keep out
'f the sun during thc middle of thc
day in summer, but it scarcely sectus
necessary to suspend all business dur
ing the comparatively cool winter sea
son, unless it be tho necessity of habit.
Hight here comes iu thc question.
Will the Americans change the habit,
or will the habit capture the Atneri
cans? I am inclined to subscribe tc
thc latter alternative, in spite of th(
talk 1 hear on all sides about "getting
a good American hustle on thc town.'
Thc Filipinos do not hustle and can
not be made to do so, except for t
spasmodic spurt of a few minutes un?
der. thc stimulus of vigorous mule
.driving Knglish. lt may be that th<
Knglish and Germaus here once pro?l

Such a thing as the delivery of goods
from retail stores is unknown, ami
even wrapping them up to bc carried j
by thc purchaser is not considered a j
necessity. If otic goes into a tobac

ed to him over the counter unwrapped.
If he. by pantotninc or thc usc of his
'Spanish at a glance," succeeds in
conveying the intelligence that he de
sires his purchase wrapped up, a
scurch is instituted for a piece of
newspaper, and if this he found, thc
box is enveloped in it and handed to
him with a courtly bow but without
string. A few bakery-wagons may be
seen going from house to house, and
ice-carts and soda-water carts; but be
yond these, regular delivery vehicles
arc unknown.
Nor is the early morning made mel
odious by the clatter of milk wagons,
(?enuiuc cows' milk is a seiree article
I here. The water buffalo supplies most
of the milk used, a snow-white liquid
containing little cream and having a
flavor nomi too pleasant to thc Ameri
can palate. There are a few Austra
lian cattle kept in the suburbs of Ma
nila, apparently of Durham and Devon
extraction, but their milk is liquid
gold in comparison with thc other. I
have seen many small doer-liko Anda
lusian cattle, much resembling Jer
seys, but they give only a thimbleful
of milk, anda number of the white,
humped, 'sacred cows of India" we
used to stare at in thc menageries, but
thc latter are of little value either for
mill: orbecf. Instead of milk wagons,
bare-legged milkmen trot about with
long-necked jars or bainboocd cylin
ders hanging from either end of the
pole curried on the shoulder. All but
ter is imported in tins and is a lusury
for thc rich only. Wit a luxuriant
growth of grass thc entire year, this
ought to be a paradice for cattle, and
perhaps Americans will develop its
possibilities in this respect.
Thc substitute for the butcher cart
and the grocer's wagon is the basket
of woven bamboo carried from the
market on thc head of the customer,
almost invariably a woman, a term in
cluding girls of ten yearn and tooth
less crones. Everything to eat is sold
at the "'Mercado." of which there are
half a dozen in the city. But let not
the reader think of a fulton market,
where crisp vegctableu, fresh meat, or
clean fish tempt the eye. Let him
rather picture to his mind a large
building, an open court, or a group of
bamboo stalls, dirty, vile-smcning.
and unpleasant to the ey?, where
crowds of women, sprinkled with the
male servants of white residents, make
their daily purchases and haggle as
long over a ten cent bargain as a white
man would over a railroad contract.
There are stalls that contain nothing
but rice, much inferior to that seen in
American markets. Another has a
few bananas, squashes, radishes, pota
toes, including a poor quality of sweet
potato, beaus, peppers, tomatoes of
small size. etc. Another has a little
joint of meat, generally pork, and an
other several kinds of tish, including
a miniature specimen, of which a dozen
could bc picked up on a spoon, and
which arc eaten raw as a great deli
cacy by the natives.
Otto stall has small clams, another
the little native oysters, and another
shrimp or prawns. Still another is
devoted to chickens, the great edible
staple of the Filipinos next to rice,
and more often seen on the table than
beef. Kggs, both of chickens and
ducks, are the sole stock of other ven
ders, while cakes of brown native su
gar and a kind of chocolate paste
occupy thc baskets of another. In
the summer season green corn, both
roasted or boiled and fresh, finds a
? place in thc market. It is not bad
; corn, but is brought to thc market
; hard, lt requires a great deal of
urgent talk to make thc Filipino mar
. kct woman understand that the Amer
i ican purchaser prefers the corn in thc
. milk, but when this has been accom
plished it is possible to contract for a
; special picking to eater to this taste.

in Iront of the Hotel Oriente, that has
been receiving thc attention ol' a gang
ol' workmen between naps for about
two months. Thc work of thc street
gangs is thorough, but painful to wit
ness from a utilitarian point of view.
A small patch having been properly
coated with the rock and gravel, a
do/.cn Filipinos line up in two ranks
on opposite sides of six tamping blocks
with long handles, two grasping each
handle. One of them starts a march
song, and the blocks are raised about
six inches and allowed to fall at
each beat in the measure, the bodies
of the men swaying in rhythm with
the music, their feet being moved tq
the right or left, forward or back, like
the step in a schottische. This is
done for about live minutes, and then
all squat down to rest and smoke ciga
rettes for ten minutes, and in this way
thc whole dozen accomplish about the
work of two good Irishmen of an
American paving gang. Iron rollers
seem not yet to have been heard of in
Manila.
The keeping of the streets in good
condition by wetting them is also an
artistic performance. A street sprink
ler consists of three men, 20 feet of
hose without a nozzle, and a water
plug key. One man turns on the wa
ter, another operates the hose, using
his lingers fora sprayer, and the third
squats on his haunches and bosses the
job. In this way half-a-dozen blocks
may be sprinkled in the course of a
day._
A Disgrace to the Klag.
,1 ACKSON vi i.i.K, FI.OIUHA, March Iii.
William Willard Howard, general man
ager of the Cuban industrial relief
fund, of New York, passed through
Jacksonville this evening on his way
home from (.'nba. He goes North to
purchase agricultural implements and
seeds tor the use of the industrial relief
station which he has just established at
1*nines, Cuba. Mr. Howard said:
"The condition of Cuba, so far as my
observations have gone, is really worse
than it was at. this time last year,
when i made my first investigations.
In tin1 rural districts little has been
done to restore the island to its normal
romlitiou. The fields are vacant ami
the farmers idle. Thc people still re
main in the towns and cities, where
army rations are isstted to them. They
cannot return to their abandoned ('arm's
because thev have nothing to return
with.
'(Mir lGovernment has ?lone, and is
doing, nothing to enable farmers to re
stimethe cultivation of their lauds. All
that it pretends to ?lo is to distribute
rations through local committees of
Cubans, (iovernor (Jouerai llrookcaud
the ollieers under hitit realize keenly
thc condition of things, but they can
not give any assistance except food.
Ours is not a paternal government.
..The condition of the widows and
orphans of Cuba tire heartrending-.
There are thousands upon thousands
of these poor creatures scattered over
the island. They have neither homes
to live in, food lo cat? nor clothes to
cover them. due cannot think of their
future without a shudder. I am espe
cially concerned for the poor little or
phan girls, who ronni the streets, scan
tily clad, asking for a bit of food with
which to keep their little bodies and
souls together. What will become of
these girls? Their future, for good or
for evil, lies with HU? people of the
United States.
"Among these widows and orphans I
have as lately ns lust week seen indi
vidual cases of-destitution and physical
emaciation worse than anything that1
saw in Armenia during the two years
that I gave to Armenian relief work.
And to have these wrecks td' humanity
stand and look up to the Stars and
Stripes waving over their City Hall
gives one a queer sensation. The gen
erous American people surely cannot
understand the condition of Cuba, or
these poor creatures would be taken
care ot.
*I ?ht not speak of the sick, tho in
firm, or of those who hobble about,
covered with loathsome sores, resulting
from starvation. I cannot speak of
them, for the Knglish language is inad
equate to the task. Thev should have
been cared for in hospitals long months
ugo. Why it has not been done 1 can
not understand.
"The condition of Cuba is it reproach
to the America'.! people timi a blot upon
civilization. We are going to do some
thing to improve that condition and
we invite all lovers of humanity in the
rutted States to help us for the good
name of the American tlag. -Mir ting
diould mean something to those home
less, helpless orphans and destitute
country people. Money for these or
phans or for our industrial relief work
should be sent to the Continental Trust
Company, MO H road street. New York

I have been afflicted with rheuma
tism for fourteen years and nothing
seemed to give any relief. I was able
to be around all the time, but con
stantly suffering. 1 had tri*id every
thing I could hear of and at last was
told to try Chamberlain's Fain Halm,
which 1 did, and was immediately re

Falling Off in the Tax on Fertilizers.
The receipts from the inspection and
analysis of fertilizers have fallen off
this year. Tho receipts to date have
been but $34,000, against 8150,102.75
last year, and i-U.-'is:!.?.") the year be
fore.
In 1H?>H for the entire year the re
ceipts run up to over .*00,(KK), and it may
be that there will this year be u pru
jiortionate gain until the mueh-tlesired
minimum ot' J?40,OOO is obtained.
All of this tax has heretofore been
given to Clemson College. That Insti
tution this year asked for an appro
priation of $40,000 from the State, or
rather stated that that sum would he
all that would he needed to operate the
institution.
Thc privilege or inspection or tug tax
caused the legislature, more trouble
than any other except the dispensary;
for the proceeds of this tax arc devoted !
to a special institution, and it has been
decided by the United States supreme
court that sucha tax tor tlie mainten
ance of a special institution is not con
stitutional. Several attempts wove
made to reduce the tax from 25 cents a
ton, hut the ti nal outcome was that the
law was amended so that on its face it
complied with the constitution and
still permitted the funds after passing
through the State treasury to he tie
voted to Clemson College avowedly for
the purpose of remunerating that in
stitution' for the expense attached to
the inspection of fertilizers, all inspec
tions being made at Clemson.
That hill has not become a law, UK it
has never been signed bv Governor El
leihe.
The falling ott*in the receipts from
thc inspection of fertilizers then is due
to the fact that fertilizers are not find
ing, and may not timi, such a heavy
sale this year, or that, the planting sea
son is long in coming anti uncertain in
its outlook, and farmers are afraid to
contract for fertilizers under suelrcon
ditions.-77ie State.

Experts disagree on almost everything,
but when the subject touches upon the
great Superiority of. .
THE GREAT SYRACUSE TURN PLO
There is but one opinion, and that is that it is the best Plow ou
earth. Syracuse Plows aro designed right, made right, gold
right. They will turn land where others have failed, and
build for themselves a demand wherever introduced. The pop.
ularity of this Plow comes from genuine merit. Competitor*
will tell you that they have something just as good, but don't
be deceived-there is but one best, and that is the 8YRACU8E.
We also sell the
SYRACUSE HARROWS,
And Syracuse Harrows, like Syracuse Plows, are thoroughly
Up-t >Date. See us before buying.
