I FACTS ABOUT
THE PHILIPPINES.
era HE Philippines are essentially
heterogenous. Some of tbe islanda
are mountainous, and others are
flat; soine are muddy, ayampy, and
feverish, others are porous limestone,
well-drained and healthy; some -are en
tirely wooded, some are entirely bars.
The Inhabitants present like diverg
ences. Tbe Morns or tbe aouw are war
like, active. Intelligent, with a civiliza
tion as advanced as Turkey's. Tbe
Negritos are a diseased and dying pig
my tribe, absolutely animal to their ex
istence, less advanced than any known
people. The term "Filipino' embraces
Manila rabble and secluded Islanders,
mountaineers and seamen, priests and
the cannibals. It Is necessary, there
fore, to use only the broadest terms in
describing the group collectively.
Tbe archipelago is a group of 1,200
Islands situated In tbe Pacific Ocean,
extending from latitude 21 degrees
north to 4 degrees 43 minutes north.
Its length Is thus about 1.000 miles; Its
greatest width la 640 miles; the total
land area, aproxlmately, 113,000 square
nilles. The nearest mainland Is Asia,
300 miles to the northeast Ban Fran
cisco la 8,000 miles to the west. The
archipelago lies wholly within the Una
of Capricorn and the equator. Its
characteristics, food products, and peo
ple are tropical.
The climate Is hot and moist; regu
lar observations have been taken only
at Manila, where the temperature baa
been found to vary betwtfn 00 and 100
degrees. The excessive humidity
makes this degree more difficult to en
dure than In the temperate tone. As
on progresses toward tba swampy,
low-lying Islands farther south the
heat, and especially the humidity, in
creases greatly.
There are two seasons, the wet and
dry the former lasting from June to
November being the most disagree
able and dangerous to health. Fever
and dysentery are the diseases most
dreaded by foreigners, bnt dangerous
localities are known and may be
avoided.
Tbe Philippines are the seat of na
ture's passions. Earthquakes are com
mon snd violent; the volcanoes are the
most dangerous In tbe world. Luzon
Is the cradle of that terrible sea storm,
the typhoon.
. Islands' Ex tarsal HUtorr.
On Aug. 10, 1319, there started from
Bpaln with a fleet of five ships Fer
nando Magellan, a Portuguese navi
gator. His object waa to discover a
passage from Europe, west to the Pa
cific. Magellan had vainly endeav
ored to Interest the King of Portugal in
nia project; bad become a naturalized
Spaniard, and bad obtained from
Charles I, of Spain tbe wherewithal to
equip his fleet
He reached the western coast of
South America In December and
turned south. As the season became
harsher and the weather colder the
ships' commanders mutined, desiring
to winter on shore. One was executed,
another marooned. However, one ship
did desert and another was wrecked.
With three ships the great explorer con
tinued south, snd on Oct 28, 1520,
passed tnrough the Straits of Magel
lan to the waters of the Pacific. He
now shaped his course west by north.
and in midsummer, 1321, reached Min
danao, of which he took possession In
the name of the King of Spain. He
next landed at Cebu, In August 152L
and was welcomed by the king of the
island. Tbls monarch was baptized
and took the oath of allegiance to
Spain. Shortly after Magellan be
came Involved In a factional quarrel
between two native chieftains and was
killed. Many members of tbe expedi
tion bad died, but the remainder, with
two ships, again sailed west and dls-
covered Palawan. Later one of the
two was- lost, dui me otner piucklly
continued Its way and made the first
complete Journey around the world.
In 15C5, nnder the direction of Phllln
IL, the second Spanish expedition
reached the Islands. The object was
the saving of native souls; Inquisition
metnods were employed, and conver
sions, though not valuable, were nu
merous. In 1571 Manila was seized
and proclaimed the capital of the
Islands, to be called henceforth the
Islas Filipinos, In honor of King Philip.
Tbe Chinese Emperor resented the
Intrusion Into celestial domains. Be
tween 1573 and 1575 he sent forth ten
expeditions to oust, the Spaniards.
Severe battles followed, but the Euro
peans managed to keep their foothold.
They never, however, forgave the Chi
nese these attempts. At various times
fits of resentment against Chinese
blood would sweep over the Spaniards
and crusades were organized In order
to kill or drive then) out In 1003 23.-
000 were murdered, and In 1039 35,000.
In 1762 England took Manila from
Spain, but peace was soon proclaimed.
and the islands were returned.
Tbe natives have been apt to revolt
at any time. When they did so Spain
used Are and sword liberally, not only
to subdue, but to punish after surren
der. Beaoarce of the Islands,
The resources of tbe Islands are
varied. Bice was introduced from
China centuries ago. It has since be
come the staple food of tbe natives on
account of tbe ease with whlt-b It Is
produced. The quality Is excellent At
present all the rice produced Is con
sumed In the Islands, but much good
land Is not cultivated.
Sugar cane is grown extensively
throughout the archipelago. Of late
years beet sugar bas cut into the profits
of this business, but with tbe removal
of the various Spanish export taxes,
with tbe supersedence of buffalo power
by steam, and witb the opening up of
tbe back country by railroads, or at
least highroads, the Philippine planta
tions will reduce tbe present Have
meyer prices.
Abaca, or bemp, Is grown widely.
Tbe gathering of abaca Is an operation
necessitating considerable care and
conscientiousness. - The natives pos-
cess neither of these qualifications,
and, employing primitive methods, ruin
tbe Oner fiber of tbe plant Observers
say that machinery capable of preserv
ing these delicate fibers Is feasible. In
that ease abaca could be used for gar
ments, napkins, sheets, and even hand
kerchiefs. At present the hemp Is
used chiefly for sails, doormats, and

rope. The Philippines will probably
retain a practical monoply of this
crop; Its cultivation has been attempt
ed in many other places, but never suc
cessfully except in the extreme north
ern part of Borneo.
Native tobacco bas always been In
digenous to Luzon, but the quality Is
strong and bitter. Early In the seven
teenth century missionaries Introduced
the Mexican plant with great success.
Tobacco plantations multiplied; the
business became more and more pros
perous until In 1781 it wss made a state
monopoly. Laws were enacted that all
sales Should be to the government
planter might not smoke a cigar of bis
own make under penalty of S7 fine.
Tbe government was not always
prompt to pay for goods received; na
tives refused to cultivate their land
and fled to the mountains; soldiers fol
lowed and killed whom they found; at
night the natives returned again and
fired the crops In the Held. In this way
Mlndoro'a once flourishing business has
been annihilated. Spain now took an
other step; not only must all tobacco
raised be sold to the state buyers (on
credit), but every family should own
and care for at least 4,000 tobacco
plants. Tho sbuses resulting from
tbls last statute became so horrible
that even Spanish officials protested
to the borne government; the Caatlllan
statesmen, realizing the sponge waa
squeezed dry, repealed the monopoly
laws in 1882. Even under such aus
pices the tobacco remained excellent
Since the business baa been open It has
Increased tremendously. Manila num
bers scores of factories native, Chi
nese, and Spanish; several of them
have over S00 operatives.
Coffee Is grown to a considerable ex-
tent; the quality is unusually good.
Little, however, finds Its way out of
the archipelago. Tbe cocoa plant was
Introduced from Central America early
In the seventeenth century. Philippine
chocolate Is always spoken of well by
returned travelers.
Various minerals are found tn paying
quantities. Especially is this true of
Luzon and Mindanao. Gold and sul
phur will prove of Talus to prospec
tors; silver, mercury, copper and tin
bave furnished returns, but the extent
of tbe deposits la a matter of Investiga
tion.
On many islands tbe ax has never
been raised against the Immense virgin
forests; In few bave Its depredations

ent varieties of wood bave been classi
fied. Among them we And teak; naga.
resembling mahogany; tlpolo, for mu

The Inhabitants of these islands are
a strangely mixed lot Malay charac
teristics generally prevail throughout
The many attempts to classify the peo
ples Into various district tribes snd
races bave failed, for the reason that
pure blood of any sort Is rare.
It is safest to divide tbe native Fili
pinos into Christianized Malays, pagan
Malays, and Mohammedan Malays.
Tbe first named comprise Ave and a
half millions of the total population of
eight millions. They resemble our ne
groes In msny ways. Tbey are music
lovers, fond of tbe sunshine, supersti
tious. Though usually good-natured,
tbey are subject to fits of murderous
passion. Nature In tbe tropics It so
Industrious that man need not assist
her to any great extent In order to live
comfortably. Tbe Filipino will not work
as long aa be is not about to starve.

COMPREHENSIVE MAP OF THE PHILIPPINE
The natives of the northern islands
are called Tagalos. Tbey are the small
est and least brave, but also most
treacherous and tricky of the Filipinos,
and always bave been reckoned as the
poorest fighters; bave always been
most completely under Spain's domina
tion, and bave suffered most accord
ingly.
The central group of Islands Is term
ed tbe Vlsaya group. Tbe Inhabitants-
called Vlsayos are somewhat larger,
stronger, more Independent than tbe
Tagalos. Tbe difference, however. Is
far lesa marked than between our dif
ferent Indian tribes. Travelers, In or
der to strengthen tbe force of thel
distinctions and comparlosns, are apt
to push them a little far. Tbe sharply
drawn distinction between the Taga
los and the Vlsayosa is not Justified.
The Moros or Mohammedan Malays
aggregate less than a million. Tbey
Inhabit the Sulu group at tbe south of
the archipelago, parts of Mindanao,
and tbe southern third of Palawan,
One Sultan, whose residence Is Sulu, Is
acknowledged throughout these Isl
ands. The Moros are a fierce, fanatl
cal, searanog race, wbo were never
conquered by Spain. It Is unsafe for
a white man to venture among tbem.
To kill Christians is part of their re
ligious belief.
Tbe aborigines of tbe Islands are tba
Negritos, a puny, miserable, dwarf
race. Aa tbe Malays swept up through
tbe arcnipeiago mo rsegritos were
driven Into tbe most remote and uncov
eted parts. Though not of true negro
stock, they are much blacker than the
Malaya, and their Intellgence Is far
Iawer. Tbe total number Is estimated
at 30,000.

Luzon It the largest, most populous.

five-eighths of the whole population.

contain! fifty tlmea as many foreign
ers at all tbe rett of the Islands put to
gether. Luzon It supposed to support
6,000,000 inhabitants. Of these, 80 per
cent are civilized to a certain extent,
In development Luzon, though the
most advanced of tbe Philippines, la
disgracefully backward. There Is one
little, badly managed railroad, 120
miles In length. Tbe highroads, twen
ty miles Inland, are either lacking alto
gether or are merely trails. There are
no flat-bottomed steamers on tbe larger
rivers, though tbey could do a thriving
business. The sugar mills are operated
by buffalo power. In consequence, par
tially exhausted sugar land near Man
ila, or other ports, brings over $100 an
acre, while further back In the coun
try land a third more fertile brlngt $30.
Manila sprawls over a good deal of
ground, being built up on both sldel of
tbe River Paslg, and including rice
fields and other submarine territory.
Its population It about 300,000, which
is small considering Its area, but large
considering Its opportunities. Of this
number two-tblrds are natives, 30,000
Cblnete, 30,000 Chlneee half-breeds,
15,000 Spanish half-breeds, and 3,000
Spanish. Previous to the war tbe
Americans and English together num
bered 400. Contrary to general belief.
