Philippine observations from an American officer letter 1890
In a letter from First Lieut. Edgar F. Koehler of the 9th U.S. Infantry dated December 22, 1890 from Tarlac, the writer describes brutal heat, frequent sickness, and squalid living as well as endemic disease, rainfall, and flooding. He notes social conditions, church land ownership, education, and population trends while commenting on potential wealth from rice, sugar, and timber and predicting future disputes over colonial interests in Asia. He compares colonial powers and laments sanitation and labor conditions, concluding with a personal note about acquaintances and a humorous poke about American women in the Philippines.
