The Filipino has been much misrepresented in the United States. This is largely because the Sunday supplements have made a specialty of portraying the semi-naked - non-Christian hill tribes as “typical” Filipinos, which Is far from the truth. : The total population of the Philip_pines is 10,350,640, of which 9,495,272 are Christians and civilized, and have ‘been so for 300 years, possessing a’ culture and refinement that will compare favorably with that of other countries.

We would accept that as a solution of our problems. If not, let us have absolute independence in whatever form we can get it.” President Quezon declared that if the question were put before the Filipinos for a vote, 98 per cent would favor absolute independence.

The Philippine government Is encouraging the immigration of Filipinos from the. thickly populated sections into Mindaneo. This is the second largest f the islands of the archipelago. It is still sparsely 'oetzed, although It Is one of the richest and moset productive islands in the world. Many Americans have - established plantations there and become rich. . Filipinos are using the stories of the many successful Filipine homesteaders as an argument for Independence. They make the polut that a people that can go out into a tropical wilderness with no capital save their patience, perseverence and energy and win homes or themselves, have the hecessary stamina to run their own affairs. -
368, and only a small percentage of them are uncivilized. They are fast becoming educated, and will ultimately make good citizens. ' Seventy per cent of the inhabitants of the Philippines over ten years of age, according to the last census, are literate. This is a higher percentage of literacy than that of any South American country, higher than that of Spain, and higher than that of apy of the New Republics of Europe whose independence is being guaranteed by the Allles. : :
A TEST OF FAITH
(Chattanpoga News.)
We have frequent occasion to protest against the efforts of Japan to impose her dominion upon unwilling peoples, yet we have thus far falled to exemplify the ideals which we recommend to Japan. If we should with. draw our sovereignty from the Philippines, in accordance with our repeated promises, we could the more consistently ask Japan to follow a simlilar course toward Shantung, Manchuria and Siberia. Our plea would have a great deal more force if we could make it with clean hands. To say that the Philippines are not ready for Independence is merely to express an arbitrary, gratuitous opinion. It is perfectly easy to create conditions—in one's own mind—that no people ever could comply with. Our delay about respecting our own pledge is a reflection on our nationn! good faith and a constant invitation to international complications in the far east
INDEPENDENCE OF PHILIPPINES
(Atascadero (Cal) News.)
« « . The Philippines should be given absolute independence, which is their natural right, even if we are well aware that they have not yet reached the full stature of Americanism.. We ourselves have not reached it so long as we insist upon governIng other peoples against their will.

HOW ASIATICS TAME EAGLES
Spirits of Fierce Birds Are Broken by ~ Deprivation of Slesp for Long
The Asiatic eagle is the golden eagle. It is a big bird, many pounds in welght, and exceedingly swift in flight, as well as ferce when attacked. Indeed, to see the natives on horse back carrying golden eagies on thelr arms s a strange sight, for the birds are usually tame, when one considers how they act when free : The eagle fancler has a problem In taming, wuch less tralning, a golden eagle. The eagle hunter finds where an eagle frequently rests dur ing the day. He climbs to this place and ties a live fox there, trailing the rope Into some beaped-up stones to form a cavern in which be hides, firmly grasping the rope. When the attention of the soaring eagle Is attracted by the fox, the eagle drops down and kills It. So intent Is the greedy bird on tearing his prey that he doesn’'t notice the dead fox is slowly belng drawn along the rocks. When it is within easy reach the hunter casts a net over the eagle and secures him.
Kept absolutely In darkness, and with drums beating night and day 850 [t cannot sleep, the epirit of the eagle is broken. When he shows signs of submission the trainer feeds him a little at a time and gradusily wins his respect, if not his affection. With the passage of moanths the eagle attaches Itself to the man who feeds and trains him.—Detroit News.
GNORED WEALTH UNDER FOOT
Spanish Treasure Seekers Mocked by Fate When They Overiooked Vast Mountain of lren.’
Near Mercado mountain, Mexico, a legend goes, Spanish soldlers siew an Aztec chief, who sald that the hil was the upthrust finger of the Spir it of Fury, and that it would some day avenge the folly of Spain. The Incident was in time related at court, and the fine men and women there laughed over It, . Like the gold scekers who overlooked the fortunes that were under thelr feet In the wonderful sofl of the English portions of the United States, the Spanish silver sleuths looked with unseelng eyes upon a naked, blood-colored hill worth more than all they were to take out of Mexico and Peru in a century. Mercado used it to hang his name on, and rode away after the metal he had come to regard as the only form of real wealth,
Just what effect the discovery of this greatest body of iron ore above ground In the world would have had, had the explorers grasped its real value, is hard to say. But there Is hardly a more mocking incident In history than that of the Spanish soldiers, when Spain was surfeited with sliver and destitute of irom, circling around one of the most perfect iron supplies on the face of the earth, and cursing their luck because they had found nothing of value beyond the mountains,
