FEARS PROGRESS IN THE PHILIPPINES Tuft Thinks Wilson Jh Oeing Too Fust. TalkH of 1?H Hun. New York, Nov. lit. -Speaking on "Holding tho Phlllioplnos' before, tho Brooklyn Institute of Arts and science tonight, ex-l'rosldcnl William II. Taft attacked tino policy of the Wilson ad ministration as demonstrated In lio nets of Oovornor General Francis Hurton Harrison slnco he took over the rains of govornmout of tho Islands early last month. Mr. Taft spoke al length on the history of the American occupation with which he bad boon connected as governor general, secretary of war ami as president almost continuously from Hint) to 1013, ending this pan of his discourse with the statement that in his belief the great uneducated ; mass of the IMilllplnos, which must bo protected, was not ready for self gOVOrnmeilt and would not he ready for another generation. He took exception to the policies of President Wilson in grunting more powers In tie- government and legis lation to the Filipino "politicians." "Are wo to t It'll those islands over to an oligarchy of orators who be lieve in aristocracy, have no real con ception of lud Vidual liberty aiol no capacity for successful popular gov ernment"? Mr. Taft asked. Continu ing, he declared that the "minute the strong background of a powerful gov ernment is withdrawn the difficulties between the Moros, who have a racial hatred for the Phlllplnos, will at once develop. The Moros have notified us that they will not stand Filipino gov ernment. "The declaration of the administra tion,'' contlntued the spdaker, "that they are looking forward to ultimate Independence has been accepted by the Filipino politicians as a great boon, although Mr. McKinley. Mr. Iloosovell and I promised it from the first, hut wo were a little more definite in saying we did not think it was Coming for a generation or more. The present administration llxos no time but their attitude heretofore has !.u such that the mere declaration of their intention to furnish ultimate In dependence is accepted by the Fili pinos as a promise of early Independ ence. Fear I be Put lire. "When tlie Filipinos Und they are no nearer independence under Demo cratic than they were under Republi can administration they will think themselves deceived, 'ibis may lead to disturbances which will have to bo put down with a strong hand. "Upon the arrival of Mr. Harrison, he called for ti e resignation of the heads of important bureaus in the islands and announced his Intention of appointing Filipinos to some of those places and American from th ? United states to others. These bu reaus require a thorough knowledge' of the Islands ami a technical famil iarity with especial statutes and bu reau regulation. I hope this removal of competent officers is not the rasull of a tendency towards the spoils sys tem. He Hull! 11. "Word conies that advice from Fil ipinos was sought by Mr. Harrison, but none from Americans. It is re ported that this attitude and the sud den removals, together with rumors of reductions of salaries of American officials, created a panic among the American civil servants so widespread that Mr. Harrison in the Moro coun try found it necessary to send a re assuring dispatch back to Manila on the subject. If tin- American civil service in the Islands breaks down, disaster certainly will follow. "When, by whatever hard knocks,! his representatives shall learn tho truth as to the conditions in the Is lands and communicates it to Presi dent Wilson, I have confidence that he will direct them to retrace any steps which have led them away from the COUl'SO marked out a decade ago by McKinley and Hoot and success fully followed down to March I. 1013. My Confidence is based on the lan guage used by President Wilson In bis work on constitutional government in respect :>) our duty in the Philiplues." | PHY IT N1TKKDN Premixe IPs for One Thing Only, and I.aureus People .ipprcclutc This, Nothing em ho good for everything, Doing one thing well brings suc cess. Donn's Kidney Pills are for one thing only. For weak or disordered kidneys Here Is reliable evidence of their worth. Mrs. C. Todd, Broad St.. Clinton. S.

The above is not an isolated case, Mrs. Todd is only one of many In this vicinity who have gratefully endorsed Doan's. If your back aches if your kidneys bother you. don't simply ask for a kidney remedy -ask distinctly for Doan's Kidney Pills, the same that Mrs. Todd had. r,oo all stores.
