.n!
?a. ~
Based on American Lines, With Their
Guarantees, Provisions and
Limitations.
El Renacimlento, a newspaper published
In Manila, Philippine Islands, In Its Issue of j
December 9, 1901, discusses the question of
the future political relations of the Philip
pines to the United States, and the govern
ment of those Islands, In a long editorial
addressed to the Congress of the United
States, of which the following is a partial
translation:
"The treaty of Paris having vested In the
United States the power of providing a
political government for the Philippine
archipelago, it is to be presumed that be
fore a resolution Is adopted on this im
portant matter the situation of these
islands will be carefully examined, and
nothing left undone to secure a solution
which will be of mutual and reciprocal ad
vantage to both countries.
"We do not intend to expound theories,
but we are going to deduce only from prin
ciples which we consider American and
within the period of the history of the
United States, a form of government for
this country which will allow us to have a
voice in the fulfillment of the natural ends
of life. Surely, In view of the experience of
nations of Saxon origin, wo have no reason
to doubt that we will be given a just and
liberal government, which shall not limit
the future of the people In any manner
whatsoever, but on the contrary tend to the
development of its native forcts and secure
present and future rights.
Recommendations to Congress.
"The following is recommended as a
basis for the political relations of the
Philippine Islands to the United States:
"1. Sovereignity over the Philippine Is
lands is vested in the United States, and
therefore said nation is vested with all
the attributes of national sovereignity.
"2. The United States cannot, against the
Interests of America and the Philippines,
cede nor alienate the territory of the Phil
ippines to a foreign power, either In whole
or In part.
"S. The Congress of the United States In |
which Is vested the power to legislate for
the territory, cannot require said territory
at the proper time to become a state of the
Union, nor can it deny its right to be in- I
1 corporated as a state of the Union or to
adopt some other form of organization,
suitable to the then existing conditions.
"4. All the prohibitive precepts of the
Constitution shall lwive full force and ef
fect in tho Philippines, and shall limit the
powers of th? sovereign nation and those
of the territory. Therefore, Congress will
not have the right to impose unreasonable
or unconstitutional conditions upon the
territory of the Philippines, nor take from
the Insular tretrsury any amount of money
for any purpose Other than those fixed
in the Constitution, tior dispose of any part
of the territory for- th<> permanent use of
the United States, to the damage of the
int^rtsta of tne inhabitants of said ter
ritory. < ?
"b. The constitution of the Philippines
will not be a permanent pne, and there
fore the legislative chambers of the coun
try may submit for the approval of the
Congress of tfre United States such amend
ments as they may consider just or en
titled to. f- ?
Form of Government.
"The following, form of government for
the Philippines.is al^o recommended:
"Executive power?The governor shall be
appointed by the President of the United
! States and cannot be reappointed in more
than two presidential terms. He shall be
responsible for the acts of the executive
| council and for his own acts to the powers
j of the nation. The right of veto which he
' will exercise over the acts of the legis
lative chambers of his territory shall be
similar to that of the President of the
United States over Congress. The Philip
pine chambers shall have the right to de
mand his removal for just cause. There
shall be no race distinctions with regard
to the appointment of this official.
"All other duties and rights not opposed
to the foregoing and usually granted to
governors of territories are vested in the
governor of the Philippines.
"The executive council shall be appoint
ed by the governor and confirmed by tho
Philippine senate. Its members shall act
as counselors to the governor and shall
not be held liable, their duties being simi
lar to those of other administrative offi
cials. They shall have a seat in the cham
bers as members ex officio, without the
right to vote, and shall act as governor by
! order of seniority, in case of the lutter's
death, sickness or absence. j
"The legislative power?The senate and
the lower chamber, appointed by suffrage,
shall have similar rights to those of the
Congress of the United States, in so far as
the enactment of rules for their own gov
ernment is concerned, with tin- limitations
prescribed by the Constitution of the United
States. It shall be necessary in order to
be a member of the chambers, if not native
bern to have resided in the territory not
less than ten years, among other quali- j
fications, to own property valued at ?1,?*?0
at least, or a proportionate income. A i
residence of five years will be necessary to j
be qualified to vote.
' "The judicial power?Is vested in a su
preme court appointed by the President,
and in lower courts established by the j
' territorial powers, excepting the executive
power. Trials by jury shall be provided |
for when the proper time arrives." .
NEW NOSE BUILT FOR BOY.
Surgeons Perform Unusual Operation
With Success.
The New York' World of today says:
Breathing through a brand new nose, little
Hugh McAleenao. who lives with his par
! ents at No. 712 East KISth street, has be
gun life anew after suffering torture for
years. The lad is eight years old and has
had a deformed nose all his life.
| When he was .born he could breathe
through but one nostril, the left one being
entirely closed "and Uhe entire nasal organ
dwarfed in sl$ipe distorted, llis par
ents were at a) joss know what was best
to be done for him. When he grew older
and his deformity ffew more serious, his
growing body requiring more inhalation
and the nose XaiiiQii to grow in proportion
to his general physique, the boy suffered
greatly. t ^
I In his sleep fte would almost strangle and
i his gasping for breath was pitiful. Recent
i ly he has had convulsions and his condi
tion became sfrioua?. Doctors were called
in and held aiconsuMation. It was decided
to perform aaj operation, the like of which
ts said to be entirely new in surgery?the
boring of a new nostril and the building
up of a new nr#Ae. *?'
Dr. Pullman-'Of Noj 248 West 125th street
and Dr. Sheedy of the staff of the Post
Ciraduate Hospjtal did the operating. They
cut open the left , nostril and chiseled
through a mags of ftpne to the base of the
nose at the left eVer and then established
an opening through the natural nasal chan
nel down to the throat. Then they folded
back the skin over tiny wooden spliinters
and fashioned the nose on this frame work
in the shape it would be if normal.
The boy can now breathe through both
nostrils freely arid the physicians are
watching the case with great Interest.

THE CHARGES DENIED
Alleged Maladministration of
Indian Schools.
DISEASE AND MORALS
CONDITIONS MET BY THE EDTJCA
TOBS.
Statement of John Flinn, Superintend
ent of the School at Cham
berlain, S. D.
Mr. John Flinn, superintendent of the In
dian school at Chamberlain, S. D.. who has
been In Washington for several days, and
who called upon President Roosevelt yes
terday afternoon to talk over the condi
tion of the Indians in his state, is emphatic
in his denial of the charges recently made
in a resolution introduced in the Senate
that Indian schools are conducted in a loose
and improper manner.
Disease Among Indian Pupils.
"In behalf of the many good, Christian
workers, who are engaged in the arduous
labor of educating the Indian youth, whose
characters have been smirched by the reso
lution, I desire to present to the public tha
other side of the question," Mr. Flinn said
to an Evening Star reporter today. "The
resolution charges that many of the reser
vation schools in this country, as well as
many non-reservation schools, are con
ducted loosely and without proper super
vision; that tuberculous pupils and pupils
suffering from contagious diseases are
housed in dormitories with other children
and without any attempt to segregate them
or protect the healthy children from conta
gion.
"To a person not familiar with the Indian
schools it would appear that this was a
serious charge, and that the superintend
ents of the schools are criminally negligent.
I have been actively engaged in the Indian
service in the lield since 181)4. and what I
say is not hearsay. We take pupils into
our schools for a term of two, three or five
years. At the time the pupil is enrolled he
is examined by a physician. He may be in
perfect health at the time, and yet inside
of two or three years he may die of con
sumption. White persons die of consump
tion under similar circumstances.
"When a case of tuberculosis develops in
my school, the pupil is taken to his home,
if he has any home. Otherwise he is iso
lated as much as possible. If consumptive
pupils and those suffering from contagious
disases are allowed to mingle with the
sound and healthy pupils it is not so much
the fault of the superintendents in charge
as It is that of Congress. The superintend
ents would be only too glad to keep the
diseased pupils entirely separate from the
healthy ones, if only adequate means were
placed at their disposal by Congress.
"It is also charged in this resolution that
Indian children are taken by force from
their reservations and sent to far-distant
schools, which system has resulted In an
appalling mortality among such children
by reasons of climatic changes, want of
proper attention, absence of friends and
familiar surroundings, and otner causes in
cident to such a system.
Taking Indians From Their Homes.
"Any one who knows anything about the
question knows that for several years the
following law has been inforce and has
been diligently enforced by the present
commissioner of Indian affairs: 'That no
Indian child shall be removed from any
reservation to a non-reservation school
without the written consent of the parent
or guardian.'
"To show how cruel superintendents are
when collecting pupils for the schools, I
l will be frank and tell you of our horrible
practices. Now, this is how we proceed.
I have done it many times and know Ghat
I am talking about. 1 go to the reservation
and first call upon the Indian agent and
meekly ask permission to secure, if possi
ble, a few pupils for my scnool. Generally,
the agent refers me to the superintendent
of the reservation school. I call upon him
and he provides me with a list of the pupils
whom he thinks might be benefited by at
tending a non-reservation school and who
are physically fit to go.
"I then call upon the pupils whose names
have been given me and ask them if they
would like to come to my school. If they
express a desire to go I then go to the
parents or guardians and get their written
consent, if I can. In the majority of cases
I don't succeed in getting the written con
sent. The father may be a progressive In
dian and want his child to go, but the
mother, and invariably the grandmothers
(and there are generally from one to three
around) object, and so the poor child is
saved from being carried away by the
monster whose sole and only desire is to
force upon that child an education.
"Is it not a wise and just law? The wis
dom of it is sublime! The white inhabi
tants of many of our states have compul
sory school laws. Poor things! How far
behind the ti/nes they are! They should
awake, throw off their shackles and refuse,
absolutely refuse to have their offspring
blessed with an education unless thev, the
parents, first give their written consent.
But to return to the story. If I am suc
cessful in obtaining the parents' written
consent or their marks. I then must re
turn to the agent and consult him. In
some cases the agent or superintendent of
the reservation school, or both, may object
to a pupil's transfer, and that settles it,
110 matter if you have the pupil's and the
parents' constnt.
Immorality Among Pupils.
Again, It is charged in this resolution
that there is intermixture of the two sexes
in such schools, without proper supervi
sion In many cases, with the result that
many of the female children are debauch-d
and the morals of the children of both
sexes perverted and destroyed. Whoever |
wrote this charge knows nothing or little ;
about our Indian schools, or white schools !
in particular, and human nature in gen
eral, or he has stated that which he knows
to be false.
"What does the author of this charge
mean? What would he have you believe?
Evidently his Intention is to eonvev the
idea that the superintendents and the em- j
ployes of the schools are low, immoral '
persons, and that the high moral status I
of the Indian youth is being destroyed by
being forced to attend these Indian schools.
Is it not a fact that our white children,
around whom all the safeguards that lov
ing parents can devise are thrown, whose
inherited tendencies are against immoral
ity, whose home influence Is against im
morality and debauchery: is it not a fact.
I ask. that some of them go wrong?
Is it not a fact that, even in our white
schools, presided over by watchful and
Christian teachers, that immoralities oc
cur? And. mind you, that the white child
is in the public school only six hours out
of the twenty-four and during the rest of
the time is with his parents in his Lome,
' or should be.
"Now on the other hand, what has the
superintendent and the employes of an In
dian school to deal with. They have to
deal with children who come from homes
in the majority of which moral Influence is
unknown. From homes where even the
common decencies of life are not observed;
where the father, mother, children, mar
ried sons and daughters, strangers, visitors
and all live, eat and sleep in one room with
out any care as to privacy. I have been
among the Indians of New Mexico, Ari
zona. Minnesota and South Dakota, and
will say that there are many who are.try
ing to lead Christian lives and want their
children to be moral and become good c!tl
zens. 1 do not desire to show the Indian up
in a bad light and to show that he is licen
tious and Immoral, but to show what we.
as educators of the Indian youth, have to
overcome and contend with.
Educators of the Children.
"We have to build up the moral charac
ter of the child from the very foundation.
We have to be watchful and guard them.
I will venture to say. and I will stand by
the assertion, that the Indian schools as
conducted under the able'administration of
William A. Jones, commissioner of Indian
affairs, and his corps of assistants, are as
free from immoralities and scandal as an
equal number of white scuools would be
under the same conditions, and possibly;
under the existing conditions of the re
spective schools. I wHl go further and sax,
that considering the inherited natures ana

DER BY THE USE OF SMITH'S GREEN
MOUNTAIN RENOVATOR.
Most everything that can possibly be the matter with a person is due
to bad blood conditions, and these are in turn due to bad liver and kid
neys.
If your blood is pure, rich and plentiful, disease simply can't get into
your system. The trouble is, though, that people neglect a lazy liver and
diseased kidneys, and the moment they fail to do their work properly the
impurities which they are intended to get rid of pass into the blood;
then the trouble commences.
Women with thin, poisoned blood suffer from all sorts of diseases
peculiar to the sex, and men have rheumatism, scrofula and other dis
eases, as well as getting into a condition so weak and enfeebled that
they are scarcely able to attend to their usual business.
All this can be avoided by keeping the blood pure and rich by the
use of SMITH'S GREEX MOUNTAIN RENOVATOR. This medi
cine doesn't waste a moment's time, but goes right to the spot where
the trouble is, and, as it name indicates, renovates and cleanses until
everything is working in perfect order, and you are on the high road to
health and strength again.
This medicine is made just as it has been made for many years from
the roots and herbs of the Vermont Mountains. Nature intended these
roots and herbs for just the purpose we put them to in this medicine,
and when you follow Nature's leading, you can't go wrong.
This medicine has always been highly popular in its own home, al
though it was not advertised. Now everybody can get it. Its present
owners are distributing it all over the country, and we are the sole
agents here.
Take it in the spring as a matter of precaution, because everybody
needs its cleansing powers then.
Take it all the year 'round when you don't feel right, and it will do
you good.
If you find that it doesn't, you are always welcome to your money

moral Christian men and women. Of

Indian service with whom I have worked
for years and that 1 know are Christian
men and women."
