. Work Is JTon-Beotarian.
The national committee, the secretary,
ef whioh is Kenneth B. Day, and which
has its headquarters at 80 Church street.
New York city, has for its aim the ral a
ing annually of a fund sufficient to car
ry on the non-sectarian work that Bish
op Brent has planned for the Moro
tribes.
Bishop Brent has been in the Philip
pines since 1901, and ha devoted his
life to this work In the islands. He
I has ' already accomplished great good
among these ward of the United State.
- For Instance, in one section families
who were dwelling in tree- tops two
years ago now have comfortable homes'
.In decent villages, and are cutting; their
grass with American lawn mowers. The
'. telephone, telegraph, sewing machine,"
atuomoblle, railroad, artesian well,
, farming tool, and other modern inven
tions are increasingly welcomed and
.used by the natives, who are not devoid
of intellectual capacity and have con
slderable manual dexterity. The mats
and bead work of the women, the
brasses and wood work of the men, dis
play artlstlo ability and have real In
trinsic value even in their crude state,
Blshdp Brent's plans, take in the so
cial, industrial, educational and evan
gelical work among the million or more
pagan and Moro inhabitants. He hope
to cure-them of their chronic ills, such
as malaria, hookworm, black fever, and
.the like, and teach them how to live so
as to avoid the tropical diseases most
of whioh are due not to climate but to
unhygienic habits.
v He plans to help them .to found real
homes and maintain, civilized communi
ties until their savagery is , fully out
grown. The Industrial work planned by Bish
op Brent is one of the chief features,
lie will work to the end of making the
, Moros become self-supporting and mas
ters of several trades and occupations.
He will teach them how to reclaim thou
sands of acre of productive land; how
to build and care for sanitary dwellings;
and. In 'short, through the trade school
. bring them out of their present bondage
of poverty and degradation.
Teach Children Citizenship.
: In his educational work Bishop Brent
will teach the boy and .girls thedutles
of citisenshlp, and give them such
ethical and moral guidance as win pre
vent the cruelty and Immorality so pre
valent among their elders. At the pres-
' ent time only a thousand pagan and
Moro children out of an estimated total
of 300,000 are receiving school advant
ages. For more than ten years Bishop
Brent has tolled, prayed, written and
planned to bring about.' the education
and civilisation of these Moro savages.
He ha been aided by the gifts of money
sn from churches and philanthropists
in America, by the earnest efforts of
civilian", military and naval Americans
in the Philippines, and by the loyal de
votion of native helpers. Hospitals,
homes, industrial schools, . a cathedral,
and other institutions of civilization
have ' been established, chiefly In the
Island -of Luzon. ?.:.. :t t.

of the state and my one ambition is to
repay them in such constructive legisla
tion as will remove abuses which have
become their burdens and thu make for
better government. I regard the work
men's compensation act as one of the
greatest steps yet taken in this; direc
tion and therefore most earnestly appeal
to the working men and women of this
state to give it their support .
"Vote 'res' and' you will not onlv brine-
prompt relief to many helpless wives
and babes, but to our congested courts
and our overburdened taxpayers."
In his appeal State Printer Harris
say:
"I was one of the three who rep
resented' labor in compiling the com
pensatlon act. The committee of nine,
representing the Grange, the employer
and labor, worked with the utmost
frankness and perfect harmony in pre-
paring the measure. Concessions were
freely made by each of the interests
represented, but the greatest conces
sions by , far were made to the wishes
of the labor members, and further lm
porta nt concessions were made to them
during the. consideration of the bill by
the legislature. .
"Certainly it, is not a perfect meas
ure, out experienced - men pronounce
it the best one in existence up to this
date, it Is a step forward, a founda
tion on which to build. Its effect will
not in any way retard, but will alto
gether promote justice to labor and
will greatly accelerate the -action of
publio sentiment toward a greater and
better protection of the veterans and
martyrs of Industry. ,
Will S Godsend.
"I haVe listened as open mlndedly
and as conscientiously as any man can
to the objections of those of my friends
in the labor movement who oppose this
measure, anoY with-certain of their ar
guments ' I am , in hearty accord, but
in asking defeat for the measure they
are certainly overlooking a very large
proportion of unfortunates to whom It
will be a godsend.
"It seems to me there should be a
willingness on the part of those who
are better protected to make some con
cession to those who are comparatively
without protection, particularly so when
the latter . represent the greater need,
if not. also the greater number."

for the Bell Interests on the Pacific
coast, testified- In the hearing before
a special examiner there early, last
month, some of the statements he made
conflicted with evidence he had given
before the grand Jury, according to the
grand Jury testimony which Mr. Smyth
held in his hand, and from which hel
questioned Pillsbury. It was then that
the defendant attorneys made . the de
mand for the grand Jury evidence and
the papers.
Carey stated this morning that it was
necessary In the suit to have a trans
cript of all evidence presented before
the Seattle grand Jury last February.
He explained that Smyth allowed them
to have th Pillsbury testimony before
the grand Jury, but that he has con
sistently since that time refused to
turn over any of the rest of the grand
Jury evidence.
ays Government Had Advantage.
The government had all the advan
tage in preparing the case, stated Carey,
in having the files and letters of the
company, while the telephone companies
were laboring under the disadvantage
of not even having their own papers.
Admitting that it was an exception
for grand Jury proceedings to be made
public, he contended "that there waa
very ' great need of relaxation of the
rule In thla caae.
"There is no question," he declared,
"that the things' that were investigated
by the grand jury under the criminal
section of the Sherman act formed the
basis for the civil suit
"We believe in this country that there
Is nothing to allow the United States
to empound our files and keep them in
secret from the defendants. We must
believe that the United States attornjy
general has Issued instructions to keep
these records secret.
Spirited denial of this charge was
made by Constantine J. Smyth In trie
argument asking for denial of the mo
tion, ; Smyth declared that the govern
ment was ready at this time to turn
over to the defendants Copies of their
letters,, files and contracts, , of which
there are. 200 or more. As for the grand
jury evidence, Smyth said, the govern?
ment , was decidedly unwilling to turn
over any. portion of It. " . , .

-"They (the defendants) have no right
to this matter." he declared. "Thev have
contributed nothing to it and have paid
none or tne -expense or securing it. if
it waa a private plaintiff instead of
the government in..thls case, that Plain
tiff could not be forced to turn over hi
private Information to the defendant.
Decision were - read . to show that
the government could not be forced
to turn- over records of thla kind, and
that the department of jnstic cannot

It is subservient to the ' orders of ; any

Further argument was taken up by
Judge Carey this afternoon. The mat

An Emphatic Success
Those who thought they knew the Lipmari & Wolfe store last year
will find it a different store this year. This great organization,- after
a year's development is now demonstrating its power. It is made up of
many men and many women each a specialistso that when we an-,
nounce a sale in this store it means that the man or woman to whom:
the task ' is assigned knows his or her business thoroughly t&bRE
thoroughly than in other stores where buyers are compelled to buy
for many departments,
In This Great Lace Sale
Women expressed themselves surprised, astonished, puzzled that this;
store should have its counters heaped high with the most fashionable '
laces that at regular prices it is difficult to secure, to find that these
laces were sold at half and less than regular prices. . ,
That Genius, Paul Poiret
Dominates the world of fashion in women's apparel. With his origi
nation of the La. Minaret costumes he set his hand and seal upon the
vogue of laces. It's lace lace lace on everything, ' ,
How fortunate it was for us that this sale was schemed, prepared and
worked out months ago. Had it been an "overnight affair this sale
would not have been possible but then this store neveridoes 'hold
"hurried overnight" sales. That is one of the reasons why alPbur
sales are so weir attended. v-' ,
