MANILA, Oct. 6, via Hongkong, Oct. 11. | The administration of Manila's civil courts by Filipino magistrates, &hich has long been scandalous, is now agtracting | public attention more than ever, ®nd has been brought to the Taft commission's attention with requests for rectification. The courts are composed of four Justices of the Peace and four primary courts. | The magistrates are all Filipinos, and de- velopments have proved that the incum- | bents are utter failures as administrators of justice. The dissatisfaction with ahd | complaints against the existing courts are | unending. Natives and foreigners dread | litigation, knowlng. the facts in the case. Charges have been filed and evidence is in the hands of the authorities which, it | claimed, will show that the magis- | trates have been guilty of the grossest corruption and malfeasance in office. One | magistrate was recentl; suspended on | suspicion of criminal abuse of power and | attempt to defreud. { The monthly collection of fines of the | four native Justices is estimated at $6000. | The amount collected by the primary courts for the same period is much great- er.

It is further claimed that the magis- | trates are in collusion with the native po- | lice in compromising offenses on the basis of “cash for freedom,” and that in many | instances magistrates who committed men | to jail over a year ago are now liberating thém without trial, the explanation beln the effectiveness of a Hhbeas corpus anE‘ the designation of a special officer to in- | vestigate the cases. resulting in the free dom of many persons illegally committed as prisoners.

Woe 1o the man who reaches such a doctrine to our people! Woe to the man who appeals to and ex- passions that lurk in mankind as wild beasts lurk in a jun- gle. Sometimes it is possible 1o bring out the passions; once aroused it is another matter to quell them. Danger of imperial- ism? Ave, but the danger will never come until our people are foolish enough to al- low anarchy, mob violence to take the place of that orderly liberty under the law which we. have erited as the most precious. heritage from our fathers who went before us. There comes the only danger to the permanence and stability of our institutions. We ean make this Gov- ernment what we will. Oh, my fellow countrymen, if only we will cnoughl, And I appeal to you for fearles justice, giving it to and exacting it from all men. Mr. Bryan said the other day that we were concerned only about money and not about human liberty. Has Mr. Bryan not yet had time to turn his eyes to North and South Carolina? He was greatly concerned over the imaginary wrongs of a Tagalo bandit shooting at our men in the Philippines. Let him be con- cerned over the real wrongs of our brethren of duskier people, some of whom fought beside you in the great war; some of whom I saw r‘hnrf(‘ at Santlago and win_their right to full citizenship by the trail of dead and wounded they left be- hind them. It him remove the beam from his own eye, the beam that blinds him to the wrong done the black man of the South, and then turn with clearer vision and he will see that we are bring- ing liberty and peace to the brown man in the Philippines. “To leave those islands would mean to leave them to be trampled into bloody mud beneath the feet of the warr.ng tribes, who would scramble for power and work their wicked will on one another, We have got to stay there for the sake of the people themselves. We have got to stay there for the sake of our own honor and natlonal greatness.

In Reply to One He Declares the Democrats Are for “16 to 1.” ANN ARBOR, Mich,, Oct. 11.—Much dis- | order characterized W. J. Bryan's visit to | Ann Arbor this afternoon. The students of the State . which is located here, were at the meeting in large num- bers, and each one made his presence felt. A platform had been erected beside the courthouse, and the whole side of the square and street was packed with hu- manity, a majority of those nearest the stand being students. Mr. Bryan had no sooner shown his face than the boys began a clamor, which did not cease for ten or fifteen minutes. Even after Mr. Bryan advanced to the front of the st the din continued, but it ulti- U “l am glad to talk to | “4f v vou,” he began, u are willing to listen "W voices respondec We are will- ing."” “If 1 were an imperialist,” Mr. Bryan went ‘on, “I would call ouf an army to ss'you, put I am no s sally seemed to please the, young , 4nd most of them laughed and | Jeered.

At the time of the tudents Mr. Bryan's attention was not | called to th t, and he did not know | of it until after the close of the meeting. When informed of what had been done he immediately sent the following telegram: “If it is true, as I am informed, that | some of the college boys were arrested for disturbing the meeting, please:ask for their discharge. I am sure it was the re- sult of boyish thoughtlessness, and not of malice.’ Mr. Bryan took up the trust question at the beginning of his speech and asked: “‘Are you willing to defend a system by which a few men control a great branch of industry and sell to the people at trust | prices, buy of the people at trust prices and then employ labor on such terms and conditions as the trust may fix? You young men_do not want that Kind of gov- | ernment. You don’t want a government that can punish a horsethief but cannot | the kind of government you have now." Mr. Bryan was asked about the ice trust and the cotton bale trust and made his usual reply. A voice asked what he would do about trusts, and Mr. Bryan replied: “We have a remedy, and our remedy is, first, to put every trust-made article on | the ‘free list; second, we propose that | Congress shall provide that before any corporation does business outside of the State of its origin it shall take out a M- cense from the Federal Government, and | this shall only be given when the corpora- tion shows that it has no water in its stock and that it is not attempting to monopolize any branch of business. I be- lieve that that would be a remedy for the trusts. 1 believe that no private monop- oly could exist.” RIS DEMOCRATS AS RECRUITERS. Scheme Adopted Whereby it Was Hoped to Terrify Farmers. CHICAGO, Oct. 11.—The TInter Ocean will publish to-morrow a story given out to-night by the Republican managers to the effect that the Democrats have had agents representing themselves prac- tically as recruiting agents at work among German and other foreign farmers getting the names of all men eligible for military duty in the Philippines and China next spring.
