A Ford car, occupied by three men
from Columbia county, on their way to
State College, on Saturday, about noon,

the L. & T, railroad, and practically
demolished. The motor truck, used by
the Coburn section crew, was on its way
home from delivering lights along the
line when the Ford car and truck met on

to up-end the heavy truck and throw off
the three men riding on it, Frank Au-
man, of Coburn, was badly bruised
about the arms, The men in the Ford
escaped unhurt. The car is a wreck

Le Roy, N. Y.
The 10,500,000
mhabitants of the
| Philippines are
practically unani-
mous in thelr de-
i sire for independ-
ence,
This is the
i strongest Impres-
sion that 1 have
brought back with
me after touring
the islands from
one end to the
other, and after
having come In
contact with all classes of the people,
1 found, however, that the viewpoint
of Americans in the Philippines, and
Americans in the United States, on the
subject of independence, is not the
same, ¢
The attitude of the American gov-
ernment, and the great mass of the
people of the United States, is to con-
sider the Philippine question from the
unselfish viewpoint of what is best
for the Filipino people Ninety-five
per cent of the opposition to inde-
pendence emanates from American in-
vestors In the islands who are quite
naturally more interested in the size
of their dividends than the freedom of
an alien people.
The unfortunate feature of the =it-
uation is that the opponents of inde
pendence, in order te convince the peo-
ple of the United States that the Fili-
pinos should not be granted thelr in-
dependence, find It necessary to libel
an entire race. To tell a sensitive

principally te the fact that in the
Jones law America gave the Filipinos
her word of honor that as soon as a
stable government could be establish-
ed we would withdraw our sovereignty
from the Pullippine Islands,
It might, at first thought, seem
strange that In thelr sincere appre
ciation of all that we have done for
them the Filipino people should place
most emphasis on the promise to grant
them thelr independence. For it can
not be successfully denied that on the
whole the United States has treated
the Filipino people better than any
nation ever treated a dependent allen
people in all the days since the curtain
rose on the dawn of civilization, If
we do not gpoll it, it 18 a record that
we can be proud of.
But it really isn’t so strange that
the Filipino should love us more for
our promise to give them sovereignty
over themselves than for eur other
good works, for which, after all, out-
side of army and navy expenditures,
the Fliipinos have been taxed, and
properly so, for every cent of the cost
If we but reverse the situation, and

Filipinos, which cannot be sald to be

it is not strange.
