Blount, Who Was on Bench in
Philippines,
Former Federal Judge Jameu, H.
Blount, who haa recently returned fiVon
his poet In the Philippines, addressed
the members of the legislature s( the
capitol Monday night on the subject of
self-government for the Philippines.
Judge Blount made some startling
statements In regard to native condi
tions and during the evening took oc
casion to score the present administra
tion and its policy toward the Inhabi
tants of the Islands, one of tho most
Imiairtant statement.! he made was
when he declared that the Filipinos are
perfectly callable of self-government
and should be given the same lights
and privileges ullowed to the Cubnox.
The *i>eiiker quoted that plank of
the platform adopted by the last Dem
ocratic national convention In regard
to the Philippine policy of the party,
which pledged the Democrata to give
tndeiiendenen to the Islands when they
were In a |K>aitlon to take it.
"And," continued Mr. Blount, "If the
Democratic party again so declare* In
the national convention of ion*, and
carrlea the country In the presidential
election of that year, those rock-ribbed
and ancient shores of Asia will behold
an Independent republic lifting Its
head from th* depths of the China sea
before thla country la a decade older."
He referred to the possibility of Bry
an’s nomination and election, and ex
pressed himself as heartily In favor
of It.
Judge Blount referred to the Bacon
resolutions, and stated that had tin
been passed by the senatajvhen the
Paris treaty was ratified In IMS the
outbreak of 1190 would have been jj-e-
vented.
The gravest charge which wm*
brought against the administration by
the speaker was that the local constab
ulary In trying to rid tho Islands of
bur.dlttl are pursuing the same policy
of reconcentration which made Wey-
ler’s neme a word of hetred end re
proach In (Tuba In 11*7, and by thl*
means thousands of Innocent people
are subjected to the grossest outrages
and the loss of their property without
due process of law.
Judge Blount wns frequently Inter,
rupted hy outburst* of applause during
his spech, and at the conclusion waa
given an Impromptu ovation by his
hearers.

In the shape lie bill came trom the

that the committee was not averse to
th* general principle of the measure,
but that In Its present shape It would
accomplish nothing.
Suggestion* as to amending met with
disapproval, owing to the fact that Vie
session Is so nearly over. This action
probably means the death of the bill, as
the senate will hardly override the

London, Aug. 14.—The long drawn

modesty and at the same time not In
terfere with the publicity of her Action,
has taken a new turn with (he publica
tion of her latest book, "The Treasurer
of Heaven,” which has Just been given
to the booksellers.
At last she has condescended, at the
special request of the publishers, Ar
cht^ald Constable 48 Up., to allow, a real
photograph of herself'to go before the
public. It appears as the frontispiece
of the new book, which la her sixteenth.
Even mere- surprising, as a bit of
vanity, I* tho "author’s note,” which
goes with the frontispiece In the Eng
lish edition of "Tho Treasures of
Heaven.” She declares that a portrait
of herself was taken In the spring of
this year and she explains her feel
ings about It.
Mitt Corelli on Physiognomies.
“I am aomewhat reluctant," she
writes, "to see It so placed, because It
has nothing whatever to do with the
story, which Is told In the following
pages, beyond being a faltli/ul likeness
of tho uuthur, who Is responsible for
this and ninny other previous books
which have had the good fortuno to
meet with a friendly reception from
the reading public. Moreover. I am not
quite able to convince myself i*,at ipy
pictured personality can ligvc any In
terest for my readers, as It hjs al
ways seemed to me that an author's
real being Is more disclosed In hls or
her work than In any portrayed pre
sentment of mere physiognomy,
"But, owing to the fact that various

visable that an authentic likeness of
myself, as I truly am today, shau'd
now be Issued, In order to prevent any
further misleading of the public by
fraudulent Inventions.”
Then Miss Corelli tells how she con
cealed her Identity from the London
photographers for whom she posed, by
using the name of a “lady friend” and
hnvlng the various proofs q?nt to he>
address.
8nappsd as an Ordinary Person.
"That I thus elected to be photo
graphed as an unknown rather than a
known person,” Miss Corelli explains
further, "waa In order that no extra
pains should bo taken In my behalf,
but that I should be treated Just us an
ordinary stranger would be treated,
with no lass, but at the some time cer
tainly no more care.”
"For the benefit of those who may
feel any further curiosity on the sub
ject,” Miss Corelli writes that no por
traits In any way resembling her have
been published, anywhere, with the ex
ception of a picture taken In her own
house by an amateur photographer.
This remarkable "note” ends tnus:
"My objection to this sort of ’pict
ure popularity' has already been pub
licly stated, and I here repeat and em
phasise It. And I venture to ask my
reader* who hove so generously en
couraged me by their warm nnd con-
scant appreciation of iny literary ef
forts, to try ami understand the spirit
In which the objection Is made. It Is
simply that to myself the personal

the keen desire to Improve In that

MR. CAL VINADVOCA TESBILL
FORA GRICUL TURAL SCHOOLS
A few days ago the* house passed,
by a large majority, the bill of Mr.
Perry, of Hall, which contemplates the
erection In each congressional district
of a school of agriculture.
A Georgian reporter asked Mr. Cal.
vin, of Richmond, as to the scofie and
the probable results of such a system
of schools. Mr. Calvin, who had given
the measure enthusiastic support, re
plied.
"As staled by Colonel Perry In his
strong and eloquent speech. Governor
Terrell had early pressed upon the at
tention of the general assembly the
necessity for such a cordon of schools,
but It was so new and so broad a
suggestion that neither the legislature
nor th* people were prepared for It.
Colonel Perry took hold of the Idea
at the psychological moment. He
had hls own clean-cut conceptions of
the subject, and spiritedly addressed
himself to the development of the
same.
At the 8upremo Moment.
"I am a great believer In the Scrip
tural 'fulness of' time,’ The Conner
agricultural college bill was brought
forward at the aupreme moment.
"The history of the bill In the house
Interests one deeply. I do not recall a
measure, except the Gordon statue bill,
which had so little promise, so little
hope of success, on the day It was
called up. A whisper went round the
house that the bill had ngt the re
motest chance of even a complimentary
vote. Indeed, the committee on agri
culture reported It favorably more out
of regard for Colonel Perry’s Intense
earnestness than for any other reason.
It was gravely suggested that the bill
might stand In the way of the ‘greater’
agricultural college to which the whole
people are looking with so great ex
pectancy.
“The fact Is we have gone back to
first principles—educating from the top
down. However much the plan may be
animadverted against. It I* capable of
most satslfactory results, as shown by
the post in this state.
An Early Impetus.
"In 1821 the general assembly ap
propriated half a million dollars for
the establishment of an academy of
high grade In each county In the
state. The academies capped the sys
tem of classical schoola which flour
ished In the country sparse and In the
city full. They were a connecting link
between those school* and the colleges
of the state. They afforded boys and
girls, rapidly approaching their ma-
, ority. opportunity to obtain a train
ing which stood them In hand for self
culture, If It so chanced they had
nut the means to go to some college or
university.
"The thought In those days was that
i to the great body of the prop!,- 'he
state would aid the children of those
only who could not themselves edu
cate them. The state provided In a
measure for the few through the agen
cy of the academies. The classical
schools, referred to, were, of course,
private schools, but thousands of wor
thy and ambitious boys and girls
whose parents could not contribute a
penny to those schools, were permit
ted to drink at the fountain and later
by their career, honored the courtesy
extended them.
Educated the Masses.
"That system of education did this
for Georgia. Through the few who
were carefully trained and fully
equipped she educated the masses; that
.1*. thoroughly Informed them on all
public questions—the genius of u re
publican form of government, the
rights of the states In the territories,
the right* which the states yielded to
the general government and the great
and Indestructible right of local self-
government which the states reserved
to themselves.
"Tljat system of schools turned out
young men, who. If they were ambi
tious of becoming soldiers, were sel
dom, if ever, rejected at West Point,
except for physical disability. That
fact alone tells of the thoroughness of
the work done Indhose schools.
"The Perry bill proposes an agri
cultural school In,each congressional
district, and appropriates the fees
from the Inspection of fertilizers, oil,
etc, except such amounts now other
wise appropriated.
"The concession of the fertiliser fees
was most striking evidence of th*
gradual and masterful hold which the
bill took upon the house aa the debate
progressed. It Is rarely that speeches
control In the disposition of a blit In
cases where the house manifests, at the
outset, a persuasion unfavorable to the
measure. Debate did shape and make
the destiny of the Perry bill.
How ths Law Will Operate.
"The agricultural schools will b*
called Into existence one after another.
The most active congresalonal district
will take ths lead. It may be a year
or two years before another district
will attempt the work. But, one by
one. Inspired by the success of other*,
each district will organise a school of
agriculture.
"These schools will be the cap-stons
of the common schools of the several
districts. They will constitute nn In
spiration and nn Invitation to the more
ambitious boys and girls to come up
higher. They will lead to the atate
college of agriculture hundreds alio
would never cherish the hope of reach
ing that Institution. They will lead
not a few to the other colleges of the
state. They will equip thousands for
the battle of life. . ;
Will Rais* the Brows of Children.
"I said of the Connor bill not long
ago that It would raise the brow of
every Georgia farmer an Inch. I sa.v
of the Perry bill that It will raise the
brow of every Georgia boy and girl
In the country wide an Inch—giving
them new hope and blessing them with
an Inspiration that will be uplifting
and triumphant. ....
"J slncereiy trust that the Perry bill
will so favorably Impress the senate
that that body will pasa It by a unan
imous vote.
"This done, with what the legisla
ture has already done at this session In
furtherance of agricultural education,
Georgia will stand before bsr sister
states of the South an exemplar of
high rank—truly a great state."
