Frank W. Carpenter
Frank W. Carpenter was an American colonial official in the Philippines who served as the first civilian governor of the Department of Mindanao and Sulu from 1914 to 1920, after the military-run Moro Province was abolished. He pursued a policy of integrating the Muslim south into the Philippine state through schools, roads and Filipino officials, and in 1915 negotiated the agreement by which the Sultan of Sulu gave up his temporal powers.
