" The government and nil the conditions of life of 7,000,000 men , IN omen and chil dren , Inhabitants of the Philippine Islands , liavo been profoundly affected by the de cision of the Paris peace commission. It is a llltle singular that -while the disposition of the Islands has been thoroughly discussed from the point of view of the Americans , the English , the Germans and the Japan ese , the Filipino has hardly been consulted as to his dcslree and Inclination * regarding the future. Ilimon Ueyes Lala , a native of the Philippine Islands , educated In Eng land nnd now temporarily a resident of the United States , who Is thoroughly familiar with the conditions In the Philippines , ap ( pears us the champion of his people , and In tAo following article ho makes some ex ceedingly valuable suggestions for the future government of the Philippines , showIng - Ing vividly the needs and hopes of his countrymen ; There has been not a little curiosity ehown by the American public as to the future of the , Filipino , and. not a few wlsc- ncros bate croaked most dolefully about his -worth as a citizen. I therefore wish to show that my countrymen are not as black as they have been painted nnd that there Is enough stamina ln > the race to warrant cultivation and ft high citizen ship. ship.True True , wo hove no world genius to show you , wo have no grand literature , no dis tinct national art but there are , I think , enough evidences of our capacity for these things io caupo Americans to give us a genuine. Yankee welcome. For opportunity to prove ourselves , our manhood , our tnlenta nnd our hopes Is all that wa feel entitled to. Let the American people help us to a reallzntlon of this lopg-detilred opportunity , and they will win our eternal gratitude. Wo have , I repeat , already given evidence of a capacity for clvlo functions. Though living amid the most discouraging condl tlons and under the most oppressive govern ment In the civilized world , my countrymen hate over proved tractable and law abiding , whcro the law was based upon equity and right , Nay , they have done more than this. It Is said by all travelers that no other people - plo In the world would have endured as much as the Filipinos , and therefore they can surely not be accused of a rebellious disposition. And when , finally , the dogs of war were let loose , It can surely not bo said that these "blood-thirsty and cruel Malays" did much" havoc among the hundreds of de i fenseless Spaniards who were In their \ power.

Ion that I would base the right of my countrymen to citizenship. I claim that we lave shown for generations ever since the Spanish occupation , and even long before he capacity to govern ourselven , for the most of the gobcrnadocilloH or governors of ownshlps , and many 'of the provincial gov ernors , have been native Filipinos. As the ownshlp , under an American regime , would lso be the unit of government , It follows .hat the same administrative talents that lave made the Filipino communities models of domestic peace hitherto will keep them the same. An to the larger offlcea of state , he majority with us , as well as with you In America , arc palpably untltted. And yet wo lave men among us who would. I think , befit fit to assume any task that the United States night Impose upon them even to the gov ernor general of the colony Itself. Agulnuldo , though young for such a posi- .ion , has surely shown remarkable ability , and would , I believe , always handle himself with discretion. Agonclllo Is another man who has slioun an uncommon talent for nf- Falrs whllo Oayetano S. Arellano , the emi nent Manila jurist , is. In my mind , as capa ble ns any American whom It has yet been my fortuneto meet. This man Is a pro found lawyer , and Is of untarnished rcouta- tlon. Ho Is Nvldely traveled , and conversant with the history of other countries : is well as with every detail of the llfo of his own. He should bo put at the head of the supreme premo court of the islands , If the United States decide to assume the task of govern ing them , for no other man so well knows tbo Intricate Spanish laws , the customs and the- character of the people. I have merely made mention of thcso names to prove that a few of us nt least are ready for even the duties of American citizenship high as these are and I do not underrate them when I say this. Indeed , we can show not a few others who would rank on the same Intellectual plane with the gentlemen mentioned above and there Is no reason why , In the course of a genera tion , there should not bo thousands whcro no\v there are scores. It will cause Bomo surprise when I state that no subject possesses - sesses greater Interest to the Filipino mind than civics and law. There are today al ready more than 1,000 Filipinos who are full-fledged lawyers graduates of the tlnl- verity of .Manila , and some of them of the best schools In Europe. The average native also Is much Interested In the affairs of his village , and there Is usually as much desire among them to hold public office as among the rulers of free America. 1'orlU \nne\atlon. . Annexation will possibly have the pe culiar effect of changing family names In the Philippines. As a paterfamilias the Filipino has no superior , here or elsewhere ; for nowhere. I verily believe. Is there more family affection than among the natives of my country , but the mother U really the head of the home ; her word Is law and she gives the surnames to her offspring , who hold her In peculiar awe. Necessarily much of this will be changed by the advent of western civilization and I confess that I [ am sorry , too , for there Is a great deal I tliat Is lovely In these eastern domestic cus , toms. However , the elastic nature of the Filipinos will easily adjust Itself to new con ditions and will retain Its Inherent virtue. I do not believe , as some of my country men do , that the Filipino will disappear before the Incoming tide of American emi gration , 'is did the American Indian. There are good reasons for thU belief. One Is , we are of the tropics tropical anil not even a hundred generations could completely ac climatize the American , nor adapt him to the conditions of this sultry zone. There la no more danger that wo will be sup planted by the Americans than that the Dutch will supplant the Malays In Javi. The body of the population must ever be iiMlfe-born and In that physiological nec essity and ethnological fact lies our na tional salvation. Therefore , even In the event of American annexation , the Filipinos OMAHA'S GREATEST CLOTHING EVENT !

American annexation will give us not the rule of a hated foreigner , but the oppor tunity of political equality where each In dividual can work out his own destiny on lines of Individual choice. Oilier 1C flee tn of Annexation. The Filipinos are by nature agricultur ists. The farm suits them better than the store or factory. The Chinese and the for eigners , Indeed , almost monopolize the trade of the Islands , the natives being In the main producers or else In the professions And right here will come the great opportunity for American commerce , for the carrying trade of ttio Islands , as well as the various kinds of manufacture , will soon bo In Amer ican hands , and the chances for largo profit will soon draw many investors to these golden shores. The hemp , tobacco , sugar , lumber , Indigo , rice and cocoa Industries will thus alone re ceive a magnificent Impetus and the pro duction of these articles of export will be stimulated , so that within flvo years their yield will bo Increased threefold. Hitherto there was little Incentive to work hard for oneself , since the profits were sliorn for the benefit of the oppressor. Woo to the Filipino pine who prospered ; ho was fleeced In a thousand ways by the officials of the state and of the church. Thus ambition was atrophied and enterprise of every sort was dwarfed Into apathy. Foreign Investors also were similarly encouraged and many were only allowed to leave the scene of their un profitable Investment after they had lost their last dollar. I remember two English men who had discovered a great ledge of coal. They were allowed , at great expense , to develop It until the point when It was about to become profitable. Then the gov ernment began to Impose restriction after restriction until every further endeavor was attended only with loss. The Investors were finally forced to give up In despair , as the Spaniards Intended that they should , and both of them left the Islands In disgust. Another Investor , an American friend of mine , Thomas Collins , went Into the lumber business and seemed on the high road to great wealth , when ho became Involved In a lawsuit which a corrupt judge decided against him , leaving him penniless as the result of an unjust decision. It can thus bo easily seen why the na tives have manifested go llttlo business en terprise In the Inglorious past. Delleve me , let them once know that they will profit by the results of their labors and they will bo encouraged to labor and to Indus trial art. American I.liiuor * nnil I'olIHe * . Millions of acres of arable land are yet untllled. They wait an era of demand to impel them to frultfulncss ; and America will create that demand by an Increasing commerce that will redound to her double advantage. For , In exchange for the prod ucts of the Islands , she will give the thous and and one articles of civilization maiui- factured In America. Send us ] prayer books ttml missionaries tor our rlco and hemp If you wish ; but keep out American liquors and American politics. No one can drink the strong bev erages of the temperate zone In the Philip pines and live. Many foreigners , It Is true- , Insist upon their arrival In Manila on callIng - Ing for whiskies nnd brandies ; but such in dulgence la sure , even If continued only mod erately , to superinduce a fatal fever or some other tropical disease. Many of the for elgners who have tiled there owed their deaths to the daily tipple alone. For thi reason the climate has not b en so danger ous to the natives of wine-drinking conn tries llko France and Italy. American troops should be cautioned In regard to this insidious danger and strong liquors , both for your take and ours , should be kept out ot the colony , 1'rottutanllsin will not nourish In the Phil- ippines. The pomp and ceremonial of the Catholic church appeals most strongly to he native Imagination nnd no religion which is wanting In splendor and In grand music ivlll find a foothold In the Islands. There Is thus llttlo danger of the Filipinos over jecomlng Quakers. They are a very musi cal people. Every village has its native orchestra - chestra and In the processions of which the latlvcs are so fond and which occur every 'ow days Ihe music Is the chief feature. Indeed , It may be said that every Fllplnn plays some Instrnraent and even little chil dren 5 or C years of ago play the piano or guitar amazingly well. It Is refreshing to go through the suburbs of Manila on a fine summer's eve and to hear the happy people on the wide verandas of their houses singing nnd playing popular airs which ths passersby below will take up so that the whole street resounds with melody. Music truly a great clvlllzer and It has doubtless been a powerful Instrument In the hands ot the church to win the natives to the stand ard of the cross. To the native , however , all music Is divine , and it Is music of the stirring , operatic sort that most appeals to him. It must be full of movement. The soft , tender airs of sentiment or the music of emotion do not affect him. Thus In the churches and at funerals It Is a common thing to hear lively marches and the latest waltz while the audlenco listens entranced keeping time with hands and , feet. Filipino * 111 Art. Strange to say the Filipinos , notwith standing their great love for music and their wonderful Ingenuity In Inventing and constructing musical instruments , have no distinct school of their own , preferring to play the compositions of European com posers than to take tbo trouble to write their own. I believe , however , that they are capable of a high order of composition , for one of the gifted Luna brothers , hem I knew very well , composed some pieces of extraordinary merit and I am sure others also have genius to do HO. I must make some reference also to the Filipino in the realm of art. We have produced few great painters and yet nn- other of the Luna brothers , who studied In Madrid , took > prlzes In the art academy there and gives promise of a remarkable career. This , however , shows of what the race IH capable , and I am convinced that we hive many Lunas. Out of primitive conditions , also , wo have evolved a style of architecture eminently suited to our environment. The prevalence of death- dealing tornadoes and of destructive earth quakes those Iconoclasts of the Philip pines has forbidden the erection of splen did temples and of Imposing piles. The finest edifices at present are of Spanish design , but how could It bo otherwise , when the Spaniards superintended the construe tlon of every building In the colony ? Prohibition of I-arKre KxtntPN. I believe that large estates should be pro hibited by law , for I fear that a few scheming Americans may soon own a greater part of the Islands , and will there fore soon have a great part of the popula tion on their estates , educating them for a future of dependence and for political subserviency. At present every native owns his own house and. his own little patch of land , and is contented and happy. Let him continue undisturbed In his humble possessions. The chief necebslty of the Islands are good schools , and we hope that the. Americans will not long withhold from us this long desired boon. Coraparatl\cly few natives have had the advantage of modern methods. At present the educational facilities arc most meager and the methods of the native schoolmasters , as well as of the Spanish priests , are most antiquated. Only Spanish books have , as a rule , been allowed , anil the whole course of colonial education has had a theological bias. The groundwork ol superstition , however reared with such In- finlto labor during the centuries of Spanish priestcraft Is fast giving way. The eyes of the natives have at last been opened. They will no longer tolerate the delusions of the past , but will eagerly embrace the loctrincs of the now. Under American lomlnlon a glorious future awaits the Fili pino. He will for once be able to hew out of the rock of opportunity the statue of his own worth. HAMON HBYES LALA.

To the Editor of The Dee : The biennial crop of legislative bills Is now blossoming with Its wonted exuber ance. What the full fruitage will be Is not so much a matter ot speculation as dread. It Is not open to argument that many bills Introduced are inherently harmful In their tendencies. Others there are which create UCNV and unnecessary public boards , only to Increase the already unwieldy character of btatc administration , provide places for po litical workers and augment the burden of taxat'on. Legitimate life Insurance has at tained such a meritorious and prominent po sitionamong the Etato financial institutions of our"day that It has become a special mark for this class of legislation. A case in point Is the recent bill Introduced Into the Ne braska assembly by Senator Talbot. A care ful study will show It to bo ns useless as It Is radical. It repeals all existing laws on the subject and among Its features provides for an Insurance commUaloner to be ap pointed by the governor , levies the Impossi ble * tax of n per cent on the gross Incomes of "foreign" Insurance companies doing bus iness In the state and an annual license fee of 1500 ; but exempts the Nebraska assess ment concerns from supervision or tax. It Is claimed that the bill , if It becomes a law , will coat the Insurance companies (200.000 annually. That Is , the policy hold ers will bo called upon to pay that much more for their Insurance in Nebraska. Now , any legislation which makes It more difficult for the thrifty nnd provident < o se cure llfo Insurance that really Insures is vlcloua. Thli bill Is an attempted protection to that flats of experimental insurance of which the senator Is a leading exponent. Legislators can easily dig their political pra\cs by tampering with Interests so vital to the prosperity of Independent homes and families as life Insurance. The people have come to recognize the standard organizations as first among fiduciary liibtltutloiiB. They are mainly owned by the policy holders and the latter must suffer or prosper with the companies. Such bills should carry In their opening clauses a statement that they pro pose an additional tax on prudence and thrift. TOLlcy IIOLDEH.

Quietly and without even a parting cheer the two remaining battalions of the Twenty- second infantry started Friday afternoon on their long journey to the Philippines , and then the post was deserted except for the sick men , the post guard loft behind to pro tect the property aud a detachment ot twelve recruits for the Sixteenth Infantry which came In about noon. All Friday morning great signs of activity were visible. Orderlies hurriedly crossed the parade ground on errands for the ofllcera , the commissary wagon rattled back nnd forth from the quarters to the waiting baggage cars and In the different squad rooms the I men wcro kept busy making up their packs and cleaning up the muss caused by the ] packing up for departure. Ileforo leaving , each squad room was swept and scrubbed In order that the incoming regiment might havn no cause for complaint upon Its nrrlvul at the barracks. lly 11 o'clock the baggage and rations of the Second battalion were aboard the Hock Island train and dinner was hurriedly dis posed of by the Impatient men. At 11:41 : the assembly sounded nnd the companlc.4 formed In heavy marching order on the road before the quarters. The roll was called nnd a hurried but rigid Inspection of arms and equipments by the first aergeants followed , and by noon the four companies were aboard the train. A few minutes later the hospital corps and band arrived at the depot aud by 1 o'clock the train had pulled out for Omaha. On this train. besides the Second battalion were the regimental headquarters , the non-commUaloned staff and half a dozen of the officers' wives and children. The train wan run In two sections each with a double header , the first uectlon being closely followed by the second. Captain Lockwood was In charge of the first section , whllo Captain Krcppa was In command on the second. With the headquarters were Chaplain Fitzgerald and Captain Kulp , as sistant surgeon , who will look after the health of the men during the trip. Deln ) ' In Gellliitf Off. Hardly had the Rock Island train departed when the Third battalion formed for in spection. After the ceremony the men marched to the sidetrack behind the com missary building and boarded the tourist blecpera that awaited them. For the officers u I'ullman bad been provided. Considerable delay was experienced In getting the train off on account of the great amount of bag gage. Muring the morning the commissary wagons liad been kept busy handling the baggage of the Second battalion ami the re maining luggage hail to bo loaded after the departure cf that section of the regiment. \Vhcn It ls remembered that besides the baggage there wcrs flvo days' travel rations for more than 400 men It will bo Bern that tlici capacity of the two baggage cars wai > severely taxed. In addition to their regular traveling ra tions the companies had provided nut of their company funds special food for the trip to San Francisco , In most cases about 1M ) pounds of boiled ham had been prepared , besides bologna , clicoto nnd apples , K > the men will cot bo compelled to subsist fur the next flvo days on canned "horse , " hard tacil and railroad coffco altogether. At 2:30 : all was icady and the- lust section of the regiment left over the llurllngton via Oreupolls. Some disappointment was ex pressed nmong the otllcers , who had imtlcl- patod being allowed to spend a couple of hours In Omaha. At the unloo depot In this city a number of women who hail friends In that portion of the regiment 'that ' travels over the Hock Is land watted the arrival of the train tram early morning.

Lieutenant Stanley Ford , who Is now at Fort Crook making preparations for the re ception of his regiment , the Sixteenth In * fan try , had not up to a Into hour lent night received any news ns to the probable tlmo of the regiment's nrrhal. The Sixteenth was duo at Fort frook Friday noon , but It was understood from the Mlpsourl I'aelflo people that nome delay had been experienced at Kaunas City and that the probabilities were that the regiment would not arrlva until late In the night or early thli morn ing. Lieutenant Ford stated that if the tioops arrived during the night the cars would bo t < ldetrnckxl niul no attempt made to occupy the fort until morning.
