READY FOR SELF-RULE;
IF
In view of the departure of Bur
ton Harrison, the new WHioji Gov
ernor General of the Philippine*, who
mailed Wednesday from 8«.n Pran-
dsco for Manila, and the declared
Intention of the I>emocratlr C'ongrea*
to give to the Filipinos absolute in
dependence eight years hence, the
following article, by Blahop Fallows.
Is Illuminating
Bishop Fallows traveled 10,000
miles among the islands to satisfy
himself of conditions there and he
concludes that independence for the
Filipinos now or within a few years
would be a calamity. His article fol
lows:
Bv SAMUEL FALLOWS
(Bithof) of Chicago oserf Noted Edu
rational Authority.)
There shortly comes from the Phil
ippines a man who has a valuable
and timely message for the American
people. He is Dean C. Worcester,
recently Ferret ary of the Interior
the American who has had the long
est and most Intimate contact with
Philippine affairs.
Many years before our war with
Spain, wi.en to the popular Americah
mind Manila and the Philippines
were indefinite and hasy points on
the map, Mr. Worcester made two
extended tours of the archipelago.
As a member of scientific expedi
tions, gathering data and specimens,
he twice traveled the length of the
group given into our keeping, and
when President McKinley needed the
counsel and assistance of men ef
knowledge. Dean Worcester was one
of the first to whom he turned.
President McKinley appointed him
a member of the Schurmann Com
mission, and when William Howard
Tftft was chosen to found civil gov
ernment in the Philippines he con
tinued him as member of the com
mission. which remains to this day
e* tile senior governing body In the
Islands.
Mr Worcester was made Secretary
of the Interior in the (.Government in
stituted by McKinley and approved
by Congress, and continuously re
tained the post until a week ago
Monday, when he resigned to make
wuy for a man chosen by the Wil
son Administration.
In this capacity he organised and
directed the Bureau* of Health,
Land. Forestry and Science, besides
becoming the guardian of the million
non-< 'hriitian tribesmen numbered
among our wards in the Orient. Taft.
Wright, Me. Smith, Moses and other
veteran administrators of the Phil
ippine Government finished their la
bors and passed to other fields, but
Worcester remained fourteen years.
Notable Service to Nation.
i>can Worcester's service to the
nation has been a notable one in
many respects, but hie guardianship
of F e wild men, m extraordinary tsle
oj service and adventure, mu*t make
Y* ° largest appeal to us at home. The
H 'finish Government and the Chris
tian peoples of the Philippines appear
to have given themselves little con
cern as to their wild neighbors. A
few hardy and devoted missionaries
ventured among them, but contact
seems to have been largely accidental

Du son, living in wildly picturesque
and formerly inaccessible mountains
These superb but primitive peoples
have engaged In Inter-tribal warfare
throughout their history and this ter
rible condition wai accentuated by the
repulsive practice of taking and pre
serving as honor* ornament® the head®
of their enemies From this custom
they derived the name of headhunter*
Their feud* were both tribal and per
®onal. and all the people were touched
by the malign hand of vengeance and
fear
Rapacity had marked the attitude
of the I’hriitian Filipino in his deal
Ings with these unhappy children of
the mountains, and when Worcester
and hi® men went among them they,
too were received na enemies. Their
first greeting* were challenges to bat
ties, and It was only through superb
courage that they won a hearing In
the flrrt place, while endles* patience
and infinite tact were necessary to
the establishment of the confidence
and friendship which has re®ulted in
the acceptance by the wild people of
clvllifcofl law
Worcester not only won an<1 re
tained the friendship of the wild peo-
l>b but brought peaoe to them and
turned their thought* and hand* to
tha more useful thing* of life. War
ring tribes were brought together In
friendly relationship and the rivalry
of athletic® took the place of forays.
Schools were started, lnduetry and
husbandry encouraged and the once
inaccessible mountains *ere bisected
and crosscut with roods and trails,
largely constructed by the wild men
themselves. Occasionally a head I*
taken but the custom may be said to
have almost disappeared
Under the old order the men were
•o bu®y fighting that farming wa*
neglected and frequently large num
ber® of people were in want. The
termination of warfare, individual and
collective, ha* sent thousands of men
buck to the fields And the food supply
is now always ample to meet all the
needs of the people and leave a con
siderable annual surplus
Gained Their Friendship.
The wild tribe relationship in the
Philippines offered at the beginning a
veritable hornets’ neet of Rouble for
tile l nltod State* Government, tha
possibilities of which are strikingly
Illustrated by the experience of the
Japanese In For mom and the Dutch
in Java, where costly and endless war
has been waged against the hlllmen.
Had the die been cg®t for war rather
than peace with the hlllmen of the
Philippines, it would have been a
formidable and epdles* fssk to con
quer ami control them. The tribes are
numerous and their men are big, up-
stand|rig fellow's, born of forebears
who never knew peace Fear is not a
quality of their warriors, and they
would have been a troublesome en
emy.
In gaining their friendship Worces
ter and hi# men tendered large serv
ice to their country and the onus* of
civilisation and set In motion a work
thnt le unique in the whole relation
ship between civilisation and *av-
agery These peoples have great pos
sibilities of development and there
falls to the successor* of Dean
Worcester in the Philippines an Im
portant duty to carry forward the
task upon which he made such a
splendid beginning
The most Important relationship
that Dean Worcester ha® had toward
the rest of the Filipino people ha®
been on the side of sanitation and
science.
It was necessary to wag* the bat
tle from many sides. The first requi
site was an up-to-date scientific In
stitution that would furnish the best
fighting material, and there wag cre
ated. under Worcester's direction, a
great laboratory that has won more
acclaim in Ehirope than it has In the
United state*
Another necessity was a modern
school of medicine and surgery that
would train Filipinos to minister to
the needs of their own people, and
Kuch *n Institution was founded Ho*
pltals wore another dir* necessity,
and these were created. Clinics were
another need, and they* were pro
vided. Nurses were needed every
where and training schools for
young Filipino women were started
Thousand* of lepers m ere scattered
throughout the archipelago, and these
were slowly gathered In a great col
ony founded at Cullon Island Slowly
through the years there was a steady
guln against disease and the opposi
tion of the j>eople. only s decade was
necessary finally to turn the tide
Hospitals and clinics which once
aroused the fear of the people and
were deserted are now unable to
meet their dally demand*. Manila
General Hospital is now the largest
ami busiest institution in the capital
and the Manila Free Clinic ha* grown
to be the third largest in the world.
Dean Will Tell of Filipinos.
Freed from long official service and
the restraints which it consciously
and unconsciously imposes, Dean
Worcester is coming home to talk to
the country about the Philippine* He
say* that he intends to travel from
coast to coast telling what he knows
about the island* ami their people*,
and his message is going to be worth
hearing He knows more about his
subject than any other living man.
Mr Worcester ha* prepared a se
ries of nine addresie#, and their sub
let is are as follow * "Among the
Wild Tribe* of the Philippines.” "The
Headhunters of Northern Luson ”
"What the United State* Has Done
for the Wild Tribes of the Philip
pine Islands,” "Forest Resources of
the Philippine Islands/’ "Commercial
Possibilities of the Philippine Is
land*,'' "Health Work In the Philip
pine Islands, "Rducattna the Fili
pinos." "Modem Manila/' and I*
Philippine independence a Present
Possibility ?*’
To supplement and Illuminate his
lectures Mr Worcester has made an,
extraordinary collection of Philippine
motion pictures These cover in i
striking manner the wild tribes, hs:
well a* many other teat urea of island
life. J

War Department Asked for Jew
elry Taken by Noted General
on Invasion of South.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 13.—Two
persons giving the names of Lori
and Lady Banff called at the Treas
ury Department yesterday and
claimed a quantity of Jewelry and
silver plate said to have been stored
th«re for safe-keeping during »he
Civil War They were referred u
the Wtr Department, where records
are being searched in hope of finding
the valuables.
Lady Banff, who acted as sopkes-
man. told a dramatic story of how the
jewels were sent to the Treasury by
General W. T. Sherman from a con
vent in Columbia. S. C. A record, she
s*aid. was sent to the War Depart
ment.
During the war. according to the
story, the people of Columbia became
alarmed lest the Federal* would rob
them of their Jewelry and silver. They
gathered their goods together, made
up a list and hid the valuables under
the floor of the Ursultan Convent
there.
Nuns Revealed Hiding Place.
When General Sherman arrived »n
Columbia, he set fire t the convent,
and the nuns, fearing that the valu
ables would be forever destroyed, re
vealed their hiding place.
General Sherman took charge of the
property, it is said, and sent It to the
Treasury, making afull report to the
War Department
Yesterday’s visitors saw Byrom
New’ton, private secretary to Secre
tary MoAdoo, and told him the story.
Mr. Newton, on investigation, found
that during the war a great deal of
jewelry and silver plate had been
turned over to the Treasury for safe
keeping. This was kept there, he said,
until about ten years ago. w’hen it
was sent to the War Department. The
visitors were sent to that department.
On arrival there they met John C.
Scofield, assistant and chief clerk,
who referred them to Colonel H. O.
S. Heistand, Acting Adjutant General.
They told Colonel Heistand the same
story, asking him to let them look at l
the report made by General Sherman. J
Lady Banff explained that her I
mother had placed some of the fam
ily Jewels in the lot, and that she now ,
wanted to recover them.
Unable to Find Report.
Colonel Heistand made an exam
ination. but failed to find any report
made by Gemfral Sherman. He called
in some of the oldest clerks of the
department, but they, too. were un
able to remember anything of the
kind. Lady Banff instated that it
was there, declaring that when she
\. as a girl she had visited the War
Department and had seen it.
Colonel Heistand said that he
would make a further Investigation,
and that he would notify the visitors,
who are living in Washington, in
Sixth street northwest.
This couple has been living in
Washington for some time and has
on several occasions been prominent
In the news. The man claims the
title of the Rt. Hon. Robert Walter
Finlater Ogilvie, Lord Banff and heir
to the earldom of Finlater, Scotland.
He is a graduate of three universities
— Princeton, Columbia, and West
Virginia. Lady Banff was a Southern
beauty, it is understood.
