j FILIPINOS UNFIT
I FOR INDEPENDE!
Commission's Report T
nutted to Congress,
Washington, Feb 2.-The
dent today transmitted to co
the report of the Philippine co
sion comprised in the first volon
second vol?me to be issued
merely relating to the climat
natural resources. The repo
signed by Prof S chu rm kn, A<
. Dewey, Col Denby and Prof
cester.
The commission announces
unqualifiedly in favor of a gc
ment of the Philippines an?logo
that of a territory of the U
States with a governor appointe
the president. They say it is di
ble that the inhabitants of the z
pe?ago should enjoy a large mei
of home rule in local affairs,
towns to enjoy substantially
rights and privileges of towns
territory. Tbe provinces shoul
vested with substantially functio:
a county in a territory. This
tem might be applied to Luzon
the Viscayao islands at once am
initiated on the coast at Miana
The Sulu archipelago calling
special arrangements with the sui
the commission say, need no!
considered in this connection.
Filipinos could manage their <
town and county affairs through ti
own officers whom they cc
elect with no help from Amer?
officials except such as would be
. volved in control from the cen
government at Manila The suffr?
should be restricted by educatio
or property qualifications or bo
Thi-3 system would necessitate
sojail body of American officials
great abH?ry and integrity a
of patience and tact in de
ing with other races and
this account the commissi
says \hey could be called advisors
commissioners and that one for eve
?50,000 natives should suffice, tlx
v to report to the centrai goverame
at Alanisa vTheir main functk
would be to advise iowa and count
councils in the ois^hirge of tc
dutier. and to watch the collection i
revf ;:ue at.d it? expenditures Ol
gove,-.-:meo: of the Philippines, th
commission insists must be adapte
to the F?tpinos The commissio
discounts ?. proposed protectorat
like that of the British over the M y
layan peninsular and any simulatio
of the relation between Australia an
Canada 3i:d Great B.itain, the, cot
ditione di?ering The protectoral
desired by the insurgent leaders i
one under which the United State
wou!d assume ali responsibility io
protecting Philippine governmeu
against aggression while their owr
officials would collect revenues. No:
could thc liability to foreign nation!
be reduced without permitting then
directly seek redress, and such ;
course would, it is to b>'; ?eL-red:
speedily ?ead to the approportion o.
the Philippine, islands by the grea!
powers, who would not need to seek
far for pretenses of intervention.
Clearly the plan of a self governing
colony, ilse commission saj's, is a
misfit lo the Philippines, nor are the
British crown colonies and colonies
havicg representative institutions
but no responsible government,
typified by British Guiana, and Hong
Kong respectively, applicable. The
commission takes a basis for the gov
X-ELJli W A X UJ
ernmeut proposed the territorial
organization of Louisiana. The act
is 6et forth in full. It provides for a
governor and secretary of treasury, j
and vests the legislative power in a j
council appointed annually by the ;
president Courts are also provided
for
Nearly all the offices will, nader this j
form, of goveromeot, be filled by Fill- I
pioos aod the merit system mu-t be
adopted acd lived up to. The patron?
age or spoil system, the commission
say?, would prove fatal to good govern?
ment io the Philippines. The email
number of American officials needed
inolude io the first group governor,
secretary, attorney general, certain
judges and other officials of the terri
torial government aod io the second
group heads of postal, customs and
other departments. The officers of the
first group should be appointed by the
president and of the second transferred
from the home service In neither
case should there be examination. The
Filipino?, they say, are of unusually
promising material possessing admira?
ble persona! and domestic virtues and
being naturally peaceful, docile and
deferential to constituted authority.
In connection with the subject of
government the commission reaches the
foilowing conclusion :
1. The United States cannot with?
draw from the Philippines. We are
there and duty binds us to remain.
There is no escape from our responsi?
bility to the Filipinos and to mankind
for the government of the archipelago
and the amelioration of the condition of
ita inhabitants.
2. The Filipinos are wholly unpre*
pared for independence, and if inde?
pendence were giren to them they
could not maintain it.
Ceder the third head is [^eluded a
copy of Admiral Dewey's letter to Sen
ator Lodge which was read in the sen?
ate the other day, denving Aguinaldo'* j
I
claim tba: he was promised independ- !

4. There being co Philippicc cacios, j
hut only a collection cf different pec
pie's, there is no g?nerai pubiic opinion
in tbs archipelago, bur the mea of
j
property and education, who alone j
interest themselves in pubiio sfTiirs, in j
general recognize as indispensable i
American authority, guidance and pro- j
tectioo.
5 ^Coogrts? >hcald. at the earlies*
possible time, provide for the Phil p
pines the form of government herein
recommended or aoother cquaily lib?rai

that the president pur. in operation ibis

[
parts of the archipelago ?s arc a' j

7 So far as thc finance of ?be
Philippines permit, public education
should te prcmptiy established, and
when established made free to all.
8. The greatest care should bo taken i
ia tbe selection or officials for adminis?
tration. They should be men of the
highest character and fitness, and
partisan politics should bc entirely
separated from tbe government of the
Philippics
The commission are unable to find
any means of assimilating thc tariff of
the Philippines with thai cf the United
States, saying that the differences are
fundamental and irreconciliable, and
thar so long as the existing chasm
remains between the economic and
social conditions of the Philippines and

8-CENT COTTON FOR
SOUTHERN FARMER.
j
The Dream of ibe Cotton
Producers at Last Realizad. |
I
August* Chrouicie, February 4.
Toe cotton market was the topic of |
conversation io the eoirmoreiai circle
of Augusta yesterday.
Toe quotations io yesterday's Chron?
icle io reference to fbe local ms<koi,
and the interestiog letter of Atwood,
Violet & Co., published io the same
issue of this paper, caused considerable
comment, not only on Cotton R >w, but
io ali busioess circles.
There was a new impetus given to
all business ventures and an atmos?
phere of hope buog aroood the
community. The farmers' dream of 8
oent8 cotton had beeo realized, and the
realization has crystalized ism a halo
of promise, of hope and of good cheer,
hovers all the south.
Knowing that the cottee men would
be discusing the situation, a Chronicle
reporter sauntered around on Cotton
Row and sought interviews on the i
subject .with several of the most
prominent factors ot tbe cit? Io
speaking of the market one of these j
gentlemen said: j
"The French statistician, Pascb. and j
that ally of Eaglisb spinners H M
Neil, at 'he beginoing of the season j
charged that the southern farmers bad
entered into a conspiracy to raise the
price of cotton, and that they were
raising a great hue and cry about a
short crop. We C3Q now see who were !
the conspirators, and that those very I
men who were charging this bigantic j
crime to the southern cotton producer, j
were themselves the arch conspirators. !
Neil and his allies have done ail in j
their power to prevent a ri?-e in tbs j
price of the stapie, bu:, their dastardly
efforts have failed, as present prices j
show." I
Another factor, who is thoroughly i
conversant with the 6?'uatioo, said :
"There is one feature of tbs situa j
tioo which you might srress. Thc j
factories have maoofactured 150 OOO I
tons of fertilizers less than the corres- j
pooding date for last year. There i? j
a shortage of 2,000,000 bales of cot?
ton, as compar?d to the seasoo cf j
*98 '99. This means 60.000,000 I
bushels of cotton seed less than* las* j
year. With a decrease io the fertiliz?" j
output and a shortage of pixty millions j
of basho's of cotton seed the firmer? '
will hardly use as much fertilizers Lr j
thc coming crop as was used iast and i
previous seasons As tho use of
fertilizers materially ?ffeers tie pro j
diction, we o:-.y reasonably expec j
the crop of 190f? to ce short is pro?
portion to the decrease in the u^e of
fertilizer:-. A farmer can eel*, his crop
tcday for i*ext fail's delivery ar 7 I 4
cents, and it, is not likely that price
wiil go beiow thar D?T.:e, unless
present indications count for eaugh*.'7
ATWOOD, VIOLET & CO'S COT?
TON LETTER.
New York, Feb 2 -?tless-s Atwood,
Violet & Co. of New York, have jost
irsuec fbe ?oi?ow?u? circular :
"The corroo expert? from Acerina !
from Jan 27. h to Aug 31?*, 1899, !
both inclusive. w?re 4 129 000 baie?, j
"From Sept l^r, 1S99. to Jan 27rb. |
1900. there had been r-xpert^-d from j
this country nearly 1,900.000 bales
loss than from 'Sept Is*, 1898, to Jan j
27th. 1899.
.'Consequently, ro equi) the total i
?xport?; from Sept I-f, 1898, to Aug
31st. 1899. thero must be exported
from this country, from Jan 27th, to
Aug 31st, 19. 6,500.000 bales of
cotton ' ? ?show the impossibility ot
esr,, ^.i any such quantity, wc sub
mil ? following :
.'The total visible supply of Ameri?
can cotton in this country ou 27th\iostaot j
was 1,748,000 bales, and on the same
date, the amount marketed of the pres?
ent crop, accord".g to the Financial
Cnrooicie. had been 6.578,819 bales.
"Assuming as we do ttat this crop
will realize 8,750,000 bales, it means
that the invisible supply in this coun
try was, on the 27th instant, about
2,200.000 baies, which, added to the
visible supply, gives a total of both
in this country, on the 27th instant,
of about 3 94^,000 bales
"The Financial Chronicle of the
27th instant, makes southern con?
sumption to that date since Sept 1st,
1899, 611,000 balee, and northern
mill takings to same date 1,583 393
bales, au aggregate of 2,193,000
bales.
"The total of northern spinners
takings and southern consumption,
for all o? last season was 3.589,494
bales Consequently. if this country
consumes no more than iast season
( when as it will consume 250,(100 to
300,000 bales i?: excess of last sea
son), it means that to equal it, 1
396,000 bales wili Lt; required be
tween Jan 27 til arni Aug 31st, I OOo,
for domestic consumption, in audi?
tion to 2,193,000 bales, as above, to
the 27 th instant
"Then, again, there must bo car
tied over on Sept 1st, next, in this
country, at ?east 400,000 bales ot
visible and invisible supply, and
deducting these two amounts frons
3.948,000 bales, it shows that there
will be left for export, not only to
Europe, but to China, Japan, Mexico
and Cauada, from Jin 27th to Aug
31st, 1900, about 2,152,000 bales,
against exports during the same
period last year of 4,129,000 bales
.'These figures are startling be?
cause of the supply, particularly
when taking them in connection with ?
the world a consumption of Amen" i
can cotton in regard to which we j
have to say, as follows :
"According to the authority on
European mill stocka and consump?
tion (Mr Thomas Ellison) the aggre |
gate amount consumed by Engiish I
and Continental spiners is now 163, !
OOO bales weekly, of ail kinds, of 500
pounds each
.'Taking the daily report of the
Liverpool market, it shows that the
proportion of American cotton sold,
to that of all kind*, is about 90 per
cent, and, no doubt, the same pro
portion is true of the daily conti
nental sales of cotton of ali kinds
! Assuming, however, that only 85 per
cent of European consumption is
American cotton, and this represents,
? out of 163,000 bales weekly, about
139,000 bales of American
' The weekly consumption of south?
ern mills, according to the Financial
Chronicle and Secretary Hester, is
30,000 bales
"The consumption by nothern mills
? must certainly be 40,000 bales week
ly, or a total of 209,000 bales
"To this must be added the con?
sumption of American, by China,
Japan, Mexico and Canada, aod
elsewhere
.'Assuming that this aggregate ia j
only 6.000 bales weekly it gives a
I total weekly consumption by the
? world of 215,000 bales of American,
or 11,180 000 bales per annum
"It can be safely said, however,
that the spinning world is today
consuming, of American cotton, an
amount per annum of 11,250,000
bales, equal to the largest oonsump !
i tiou on record-that of last year, I
i when it was largely stimulated by !
j the low price
I "The world's buying power, how
ever, has increased so materially
during the past twelve months, as to j
show that the higher prices for cot i
toD, instead of lessening consump?
tion, is stimulating the productive?
ness of the world's cotton raanufac
turing industries.
.'With the crop this season of j
even 8,750,000 bales, and adding to
it 11.000,000 bales brought over on
I September 1st last, of the world's
I visible supply of American of 1,962, j
1000 bales would still leave on !
i September 1st, 1900, a deficit be- j
j tween supply and -consumption of \
j 1,500,000 bahs, but it wouid also
leave the world's visable suppply
dangerously smalier than on Septem
! ber 1st. of any year since 1889, the
crop of wnich season was 7,311,000
baies arid at which time the price of
middling cotton in New York was
llj cents against 8| cjnts today
'.'Any one eau reasonably antici
pate from these statistical conditions,
as we have presented them, an ad
var-cs of great proportions, and, in
giving this data as herein contained,
we do so in order to show what has
been, for a long time past, the basis |
of our bullish views for the staple, \
and which we have continually put
forth, in our market letters to the
incal and southern press, during the
past five months.

THE PAULIST MISSION.
The mission conduced by Father Barke at
St Jo?e. b's Cbapel. was well attended. Uce
of th'-' most interest i g fa-.tures of the mis?
sion wa* the Q lestion Box A great man?
qie ticns were answered to an inre?igen*
n,ant.er ov Father Burke We print beiow
his remarks ?n ref--rence to the infallibility of
the Pope : al3o as to why be was a Catholic :
"Doe3 rbe infallibility nf the Pope raep.o
that he carjr.ot cocstrit sin ? ' Father Burke
replied in substance HS foilowa;
Such a question could arise ooiy from a
mistasen nation of what is the Catholic doc
Mine of iri?a'?r.iiity. In the first place let
mi* teil yon what it is not. Wren we say the
pope is iotVt? li - le we do not mean that he is
imyeccaole ; we do not maan that be cannot
commit s;ri h would be j m as reasonable
to say that a judge or the suprexe court, in
virtue ct his > r5:e, could not, in his private
life, be guilty of a oreacb of the lavr as to
Say that the pope, becaase be is infallible,
cannot como.it a sin. What, then, is infalli?
bility ? Let us come to it in th's way Sup?
pose you happened to be traveling io R^me
and you met the pope You asked bim some
questioo about belief or moral conduct. He
aoswered you. Would bi3 word be infalli?
ble ? No, it would not. Suppose again, you
went to St Peter's and heard the pope preach
upon some point of faith or morals, would
his utterance be infallible? No, it would
not. Suppose trae pope wrote a letter to you,
or wrote a book, would the opinions or be?
liefs there set down be his infallible tiecisioct?
No, they would not.
Again, suppose you were to ask the POD tiff
bis opinioo, let us say, about Sooth African
politics, or about bimetallism, or any ether
questioo, would not the Pope's words on
any of these points be infallible? Most assur?
edly not. The infallibility of the Pope does
not, therefore, mean that be is inspired as
Holy Scripture is inspired, or that he caa re?
ceive cr give to meo a new doctrine other
than tboee taught by Christ aod His apostles:
it does oot mean that he cao decide matters of
science or Net entirely independent of doc?
trine; it does not mean that be cannot err
when be writes or talks or preaches on nut?
ters of religion.
The Pope is infallible only wheo, as a
teacher of the who e church, be pronounces
that a certain doctrine of faith or morality
is contained in the deposit of faith "
"Why I am a Catholic " The discourse
dealt with the fundamental reasons why
a Catholic sees in his church the meaos of
salvation. Ia one portion, dwelling upon
the necessity of a living, infallible teacher,
Father 3urke said :
.'Unparalleled as the Bible'is as a writren
work, divinely inspired as no other word is,
the otject cf the deepest reverence of all
Catholics, there is one rbing wbicb it ia not
and enano: le, tbat is the soi? guide to our
fanh
J*su3 Christ did cot leave one siegle docu?
ment behind bim. Christianity existed for
nearly ten years before the first word of the
New Testament was written ; it existed for
nearly sixty years before toe last booii wes
written; it existed for nearly.four hundred
years before the C^non of the Scriptures was
fixed. It existed tor nearly fifteen hundred
years before th* invention of printing, op to
winch ?i2!e it was impcssib!c to spread the
written tvotd sufficiency to mike it the
teacher cf men. We must have another guide
to religious tn.h therefore, ?nd that wq Snd
in a living, infallible Church, divinely guided
to lead men, and wi>n necessary to inter?
pret the Scriptures themselves."
