POLICE FOR THE SOUTH. PRESIDENT ISSUES HIS PROCLAMATION Appointing a Day cf National Thanks* giving. NOVEMBER 27TH IS THE DAY Sb. The President Calls Upon All the People to Return -Thanks for the ; Bounty of the Year. Washington, Special. — President Roosevelt has issued his proclamation • designating Thursday,. November 27, as a day of thanksgiving. The procla mation is as follows: "According to tlie yearly custom of o«r people, it falls upon the President at this season to appoint a day of fes tivity and thanksgiving to God. Over a century and a quarter has passed since Ih is1Country took its place among the nations of the earth, and during that time we have had, on the whole, more to be thankful for than has fallen to the lot of any other people. Generation after generation has grown to man hood and passed awayl Each has had to bear its peculiar burden, each to face Its special crisis, and each has known years of grim trial, when the country was menaced by malice domes- . tic or foreign levy, when the hand of the Lord was Iieavy upon it in drouth or pestilenc-2, when in bodily distress and anguish of soul it paid the penalty of folly and a froward heart. “Nevertheless; decade by decade we have struggled onward and upward; we no.w abundantly, enjoy, material wellbeing/ and under*' the favor of the Most High We are striving earnestly to achieve moral and spiritual uplifting. The year that has just closed has been one of peace and of overflowing plenty. For this we render heartfelt and sol emn thanks to the Giver of Good; and we seek to praise Him not by words only, but by deeds, by the way in which we do our duty to ourselves and to our fallow jnon. ' “Now therefore, I, Theodore Roose velt, President of the United States, do hereby designate as a day of general thanksgiving, Thursday, the 27th of the coming November, and do recommend that throughout the land the people cease from their ordinary occupations and in their several homes and places of worship render thanks unto Al mighty God for the manifold blessings of the past year.” Evidence Not Valid, New York, Special.—The prosecution in the Molineux case rested Wednesday after the defense had secured an im portant advantage in the decision by Justice Lambert • that the reading of the testimony given at the first trial r by Mamie Meiando and Detective Far rell, both of whom are beyond the jurisdiction of the court, was inadmissablc. - Miss Meiando was the first witness at the first trial to connect Molineux with the blue crescent paper and Farrell tesT tified that he saw Molineux in Newark with a small package the day the bot tle-holder was bought in that city. “Now that your honor has ruled,” ex-Governor Black said, "I want to say that neither I nor any of the counsel defending have done anything, procur ed anything or know of anything done to keep witnesses from the State of New Jersey or elsewhere, from coming hero to give testimony. I have not dodged any issue, I have made the fight against that evidence strictly within my legal rights as counsel for the defense.”.?* “I cannot quite see the relevancy of those remarks,” said District Attorney Jerome in^ reply. “There have been no proclamations and no charges.” The greater part of the session was devoted to the examination of Daniel T. Ames,^a handwriting expert, who, like all those who have preceded him, testified .that one hand wrote the poi son package address, the Barnet and Cornish letters and letters admittedly WTitten by Molineux. The presentation of the case for the defense is expected to occupy not more than two days and interest centers in the question whether Molineux will testify in his own be- haif. :> THE MILL MERGER Progress off the Movement to Com* bine Milling Interests.

An Unique Measure to Prevenl Vagrancy and Crime. It is announced from Atlanta that Mr. R. B. Blackburn will father at the present session of the general as sembly of Georgia a bill providing for the selection of about 10,000 additional police officers in the State. As explain ed by its author, the bill commands it self to prompt passage for Georgia and to adoption as soon as possible by every other Southern State. It means order, safety and prosperity. Tho bill provides for the choice by the grand Jury of each county in the State of seven men in eachymilitia district to act as patrolmen. Bach group of sev en is to select a captain, and to his call the patrol is subject. Under such a- system, and wherever the necessity arises, patrolmen may be provided up on a basis o£ one for every six square miles of the State’s area and for avery two hundred and twenty of its popula tion, and the officers thus provided will be specially charged with the ar rest of all suspicious charactei'3 and in- dlviduals who may be leading a pro fligate or an Immoral life. The bill en larges the vagrancy law so as to bring within its purview all persons who have no fixed abode, and who may be found tramping through the country with no visible means of support. The proposed measure seems to seek a revival of some of the features of the old patrol system of the South, a:id should it succeed it would not* only prove a deterrent of crime and misde meanors costly to the State Iii many ways, but would also be an effective means for the prompt administration of justice, and hereby effect a saving. It strikes at the root of many' evils, social, economic, industrial, agricul tural and financial, in reinforcing va grancy laws. One of the curses of the South is vagrancy, increasing with tho means for improper schooling o* negroes, and vagrancy is the parent of divers offences against persons and property , and a constant drain upoi the strength of a community. This is especially the case in rural districts, of others, the inevitable criminals of wheratlie idlers and drones, living upon the honest and dishonest exei'lious of others, the inevitable criminals of the future, are not as easily restrained as they may be in the cities whither many of them drift. The knowledge that at any moment the country patrolman may appear will have the effect of checking the tendency to vagrancy, with all its possible dangers. There fore, the law as proposed will be of in estimable value to the country neigh borhood, making more secure life and property there, and will do much to ward a settlement of many of the difii- cuties which have cultivated the un healthy migration of valuable elements of the population from country to town. It will not only induce stability in that class of the population, but will add to its numbers. The author of the bill believes that the law as framed by him may be ex ecuted almost without direct expense for the State. That feature will un doubtedly make it popular. But the expense should be regarded of minor importance. Georgia could well afford to spend for a few years half a million dollars annually upon such- a police system, and every other Southern State would do well to make a similar in vestment in proportion to its needs. Such an expenditure would have the immediate effect of enhancing ,farm values and of increasing the density of the country population of the South, and th03a of ultimately increasing the ability of the State to make the ex penditure, and at the same time of re ducing to a'minimum the necessity for il. It is an investment which will be gin to pay interest immediately, and which will require no sinking fund for the extinction of obligations arising from it.—Manufacturer’s Record.

Mentioned as Being Enlilled to the Bifliest Credit BRAVERY IN THE SAMAR CAMPAIGN Captains Porter and Bears Hentioned as Being Entitled to Highest Credit for the Courageous Hanner In Which They Routed the Enemy. SOUTHERN INDUSTRIAL Washington, Special.—Major Gen eral Charles Heywood, commandant of the United States Marine Corps, in his annual report presents In detail the operations of Major Waller and his courageous band of marines on the coast of Southern Samar. Major Wal ler is quoted as saying that the expedi tions early in last November in the Sohoton district, were, the most im portant of the campaign, so far as their effect on the insurgents was con cerned. A graphic account is given of the operations of the main expedition in the Sohoton district. The attack was on the fortified cliffs and caves which had been reported to be practi cally impregnable. The plan of attack was that two shore columns were to unite at the enemy’s stronghold and be joined there by a river column un der Major Waller. Concerning the re sult of the attack the report says: “On the 17th of November the? shore column struck the enemy’s trail, which was followed, and the detach ment soon came upon a number of bamboo guns. One of these command ing the trail had the fuse burning and Acting Corporal Harry Glenn rushed forward and pulled out the fuse. The attack of the marines was a perfect surprise and the enemy was com pletely routed, 30 being killed. After driving the insurgents from their posi tion the troops crossed the river, scaled the cliffs on the opposite side and destroyed the camps there. The enemy fired two volleys and then fled. Major Waller says that he himself was not in this attack, being in the river below and unable to reach the firing line in time, but he mentions Captains Porter and Bears as being entitled to the highest credit for the courageous and skillful manner in which they routed the enemy, : j the face of ap* parently insurmountable obstacles. In order to reach the enemy’s position the trcops had to climb the cliffs which rise sheer from the river to the height of about 200 feet and are honeycombed with caves, to which access is had by means of bamboo ladders and also, by narrow ledgea with bamboo hand rails, Tons of rocks were suspended in cages held in posi tion by vines, and in readiness to be precipitated upon people and boats be low. Instant destruction would have undoubtedly been the fate of the boats had they undertaken the ascent of the river before the shore column had dis lodged the insurgents. The effect ot the capture of this last stronghold upon the insurgents of Samar cannot be overestimated, as they had spent years of labor upon the defenses and undoubtedly considered the cliff forti fication impregnable. The report contains an account of the march of 190 miles across Samar of Major Waller and his men and of the incredible hardships they en dured. The command was engaged ac tively and continuously against the in surgents for three months. General Heywood says that preliminary steps have been taken to erect new bar racks at Norfolk, Va., at a cost of $100,000. He renews his previous re commendation, that Congress appro priate liberally for main barracks and quarters at the Charleston, S. C., naval station. Minor AJenSion.

REPUBLICAN CRISIS WILL THE PARTY DIVIDE ON TARIFF REVISION ? E p sak ei H euacrfioutB P ro te st A uainat th e lo w * Xtlca Ia lfe s th e F orm o f a K e- fusa! to Be a C andidate F o r Iie-K lcc-tion to Congress. What is known as Uie Iowa idea has blossomed and borne fruit. It blos somed at the Republican State Con vention of la3t month in the shape of a resolution which pleads guilty to the Democratic Jndictment charging that the tariff is the mother of trusts by advocating such modifications of the tnriff as are required to prevent mo nopoly from sheltering itself under the wings of protection. Additional buds have since appeared in tile form of public statements by the authors of that platform, Governor Cummins anil Director of the Mint Roberts, to the effect that the people are being plun* dered by trust-estortions and that the otlly remedy lies in the introduction of foreign competition as a means of breaking down domestic prices. So much for the blossoming of the Iowa idea. Now for the fruit. It ap pears In a letter from David B. Hen derson, Representative in Congress lowingof the Third Iowa District and Speaker of the National House of Rep resentatives, declining ‘ the xenomina- tion already tendered him by the unani mous voice of his district on the ground that he cannot consent to make the canvass on a platform wliieh in flicts a vicious stab upon the doctrine of xiroteetion to American labor and industry. Speaker Henderson’s letter is as follows: C. A. Albrook, Chairman Kotifieatiou Committee, Eldora, Iowa: “My Dear Sir — I have - never an swered the kind notice communicated by you and your associates advising me of my nomination for the eleventh time by acclamation as the Republican candidate for Congress for the Third Congressional District of Iowa. Re ported conditions in the public mind in my district upon public policies in duced me to make this delay. Sincc my .return to the district I have made a careful study as to the sentiment in the district and State, and I believe there is no little sentiment, and a growing sentiment, among Republicans that I do not truly represent their views on the tariff question. Believ ing this condition to exist and knowing that I do not agree with many of my people that trusts, to which I am' and have been opposed, can be cured, or the people benefited by free trade, in whole or in part, I must decline to ac cept the nomination so generously and enthusiastically made. I have devoted twenty of the best years of my life to the service of my people and my coun try, and I have fought for what I be lieve to be best for the fanner, the la borer and the business interests of this district and State. I am grateful for the devotion that has ever been ac corded me, arid to the hour of my death I will liold in a grateful heart the mem ory of that devotion. I will give later on in some detail 'niy view's and convic tions on our condition^ and on public questions, and will state my reasons why the Republican party and its policies should continue in the confi dence of the voters of the United States, and why the doctrines of the Democracy should find no lodgment in the faith and teachings of the Re publican party. Very truly yours, “D. B. HENDERSON.” Like-a bolt from the blue came this remarkable letter. It was the political sensation of the decade. It astonished people of all parties. It shocked and stunned the leaders and the rank and Iile of the Republican party. .Toy and gratification it brought to all Demo crats and free traders; pride and ela tion it possibly brought to those gentle men of whoso “progressive” machina tions it was the direct consequence; consternation it undoubtedly brought to all who are genuinely devoted to Republican principles and conscien tiously . concerned fcr the country's best sind highest good. To the Presi dent aiid his group of senatorial ad visers ip confidential conclave at Oys ter Bay the announcement was a bombshell. Promptly the wires flashed the following urgent message to Speaker Henderson: “Oyster Bay, September 17. “Most earnestly ask that you recon sider your determination not tp run. “THEODORE R'OOSEVELT.” J. Vt. Babcock, chairman of the Re publican Congressional Committee, wired from New York: “Hepburn and Hull are here and all enter our earnest protest against ac tion of this kind by you. • The Ilepab- Ik;an party that you have served so long, and .faithfully cannot part with your services now.” Froin an organization which for more than 'twenty years has been un swerving in its devotion to the cause of protection and prosperity went for ward this earnest' appeal: “New York, September 17,1902. “Hon. D. B. Henderson, Dubuque, Ia.: “We heartily approve position which you take in favoi .of protection, blit regrot deeply that you should decline nomination. We earnestly aslc tlsat you will allow your peopin to renomi nate you aud accept nomination on platform satisfactory to yourself. Cause of protection needs you more than ever befare at 'Washington. “THE AMERICAN PROTECTIVE TARIFF LEAGUE. “Charles A. Moore, President; Wilbur Waketnan, Treasurer and Generai Secretary.” ' To. ths above the following reply was deceived: “Dubuque,. Iowa, September 17,1S02. “Hon. Cfcasi'.A. Moore, President Amer ican Protective TariH-League1 135 West '!'wfenty-third street, New York: “Your telegram sincerely appreciated, but I do not feel justified in w ith drawing declination. But my harness will never be taken off while the battle for protection lives. I believe that my actios will sti-eHgthen the great cause of American protection. - “D. B..HENDERSON." . Other telegrams of the Same -tenor were sent by members Of the Nationaf Comsnittee-and the National Congies- eJonal Committee. Senators ■ Allison, Hanna, Spooner, Lodge, Fairbanks and others. Despite these and a host of other dispatches imploring him not to aban don the field, the Speaker refused to reconsider his withdrawal. To Lafe Young and S. W. Rathbun he sent this reply: “Cannot reconsider, for after an age spent in fighting for my country, State and district I cannot'acquiesce in ad ministering free trade poison to curc the trust evil which I abhor.” The enemies of Republicanism and protectionism hail this»event as the first pronounced symptom of dissen sion and division in the ranks of the dominant party, as the beginning of the end. They may be right. Much depends upon what the responsible leaders of that party propose to do about it; whether they shall coddle or condemn the base betrayal of Repub lican faith by which an honest and a conscientious Republican Is forced from a position of exalted usefulness to his party and to his country; whether, in short, the Iowa idea shall be palliated and excused as an expres sion which, after all, really means nothing hostile to true Republicanism, or whether it shall be denounced and repudiated as the false and treacherous thing it really is. Much, we say, de pends upon the manner in which the Iowa idea shall be treated by those high iu authority and control in the Republican party. The responsibility is a heavy one, and just as it shall be discharged with timidity or with fear- lessness sa will the outcome be to the cause of Republicanism and protec tionism. As to this we venture no opinion at present. It is a fact that we must face and contend with. The fact is that in consequence of the action of Speaker Henderson, and the causes compelling that action, the Republican party at this moment confronts a crisis. To weather that crisis bold, brave men with dear, cool heads are needed, men who correctly gauge the peril of the situation and are prepared to act up to the full measure of their duties and responsibilities.

No one supposes for a 'moment that revision means any raising of present rates— it means cutting down. As we are all selfish, let us see where tbe interest of the Iowa man who wants “tariff re form” comes iu. The people who buy and eat beef, say cheaper beef. Very well, let us take off the tariff on cattle from Canada aud Mexico. How would the Iowa farmers like to compete with cattle raised on fifty dollar an acre land with those raised where grazing is free? Suppose the tariff on leather was reduced, so as to give us cheaper shoes and harnesses; let hides iu free from South America ? And if we let wheat grown in Canada in free wouldn’t flour be cheaper? So about, woolen goods. They might be cheaper if we had free wool from Central and South America, but where does the Iowa farmer who raises sheep come in? In short, where is there an articig that can be placed on the free list or tlie tariff reduced upon that it does not hit the Iowa farmer? Won’t some- body tell us?—Hampton (Iowa) Re corder.

The Republican party never won a victory so grand as that of ISytJ1 when the money question was defined and made so plain that there was no chance for a man to be a Republican and a bimetalist or double standard man. This year there is no chance for a man to be a free trade Republican unless lie waives bis principles. ThJ part; will win this year anyway, but wiil win much more honestly and proudly if the platform is made for Republi cans and not to catch free trade Demo crats, a number of whom have been voting the Republican ticket, because “tiere was no place else for them to go.”—Des Moines Capital.

A round, chubby face so tanned that the con trast made his big blue eyes snem lighter in color than they really were, though even then they matched the mass of yellov,- hair that ended in curls reaching below -his neck. -He ore no hat and his feet and legs be low the knees were bare, though one needed not to look at them to tell that ho had been-well fe3, at least during the five or six years he had been in the world. Many an admiring glance was cast at him by men and women alike as he | stood in the shadow of the elevated road, near the lower end of Greenwich street, and held aloft in the plump little hand a bunch of daisies some one had given to him. He called to other larger boys across the street to see what he had received, and they ran over.and itole them from him. ■The little fellow sobbed aloud, and a kindly faced old gentleman and a couple, of young women stepped up to him arid sought to assauge his grief. ‘Don’t cry, my little man,” they said. “Be brave. Can we help you? You’re too nice a boy to cry like that.” The little fists were drawn out of his eyes, and while the tears still fastened in them he. turned on his sympathizers and with a ring of de fiance in his YjiCe said: ‘Quit yer kiddie.’.

A woman’s wedding gown is seldom worn except on anniversary occa sions after the day upon which ths nuptials are celebrated. Most women regard this garment as especially sa cred and take extraordinary mc&ft to preserve it in all its pristine purity. ! The wedding gown box is* a recent fad !‘for the well-to-do bride to adopt, and it bids fair to have quite a vogue. That every bride possessed of any sentiment wishes to keep i*.er wed ding gown in a state of preservation is a foregone conclusion, and this ele gant receptacle is admirably suited to the purpose for which it was de signed. It is made of light wood enameled with white and having the bride’s initials in silver letters on ths outside. A lining of tufted white satin is revealed on opening the box, and locks Cf sliver and white leather straps fasten it. A photograph of the wedding gown is often taken by the modiste before sending it home and making a collection of the photo graphs of wedding gowns or any other distinctive costume is one of the present fads, the idea being to pre serve the pictures as mementoes for future generations and also as illus trations of present-day fashions. j TVhat a pity it is that a law prevent ing the birth of fools is impracticable.

Mr. ColerTs statement was followed by a rather sensational an nouncement from Secretary 'Mason, of the State Democratic committee, that be refused to concede Odell's-election; that fraud had robbed Coler of many votes up the State and that Senator Hill and Chairman Campbell, of the towns indicate that Connecticut will return four district Congressmen. Re publicans. and a Republican Congress man at large. The Gkneral Assembly promises to be comfortably Republi can, thus insuring the return to the United States Senate of O. H. Platt. DELAWARE.

About the time these state ments appeared a rumor was circu lated that Coler intended to make a r,Uitest in the courts, and simultane ously the Evening Journal issued an extra edition, declaring that former Eenator Hill, Charles F. Murphy and Hugo McLaughlin claimed Coler's election. This report, together with the Vlatements made by Mr. Coler and Sec retary Mason, have caused consider- iihla avnitement In Fhft FitVr. Mf. ColGT Sable excitement in the city. Mr. Coler’s Platement follows: “I think personally it would be a pood thing to watch* the official count tjp the State closely. Suppose the Dem ocratic ticket had received say in the neighborhood of 150,000 majority _ In Oreater New York, there was nothing to have stopped the Republicans from claiming the upper section of the State Vy 200,000. What the Democratic party needs up the State is tried and true material who will lock carefully after the party's interests. I don’t mean by anything I have said either last night or this morning that I in any manner ccuceded the election of my opponent. I want to wait for the official count, for my latest advices are that the vote L very close. I am hopeful of receiv ing today news that will put a new complexion on affairs in this State.*' John A. Mason, of the State commit tee, speaking for the committee, issued the following statement: “We concede nothing. Odell’s election is simply a !•aim. We will not admit his election until every defective ballot or alleged I,elective ballot has been scrutinized, and every vote that of right belongs to our party is counted. The alleged de fective ballots uncounted for the Dem ocratic ticket by Republican inspectors is counted. The election of , Henry Houston, Democrat, for Congress, is indicated. At 9 p. m.. the returns were being received slowly. Reports from over one-half of the precincts in the first district of Wilmington indicate the election of Dr. H. G. Buckmaster, .

The Legislature elected will re-elect United States Senator HalIory to succeed himself, lie hav ing already been nominated by pri mary. The proposed constitutional amendment providing for three extra members of the Supreme Court bench was carried. ALABAMA. Montgomery, Ala., Special.—The Democratic State ticket was elected by a large majority. The “Lily White” Republican vote was not as large as was expected. Returns are insuffi cient to give definite .figures. The Democratic nominees in the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, eighth and ninth districts are elected. In the seventh district Burnett, Dem ocrat, leads Street, Republican, and Burnett’s election is probable. VIRGINIA. Richmond.

The totals given are believed to be correct, although there are a few districts, such as two in Colorado and one in Minnesota, where the Republican and Democratic party managers do not concede defeat, but the general result does not affect even should their claims prove well found ed.

At Democratic hoadquarters it was conceded that the Republicans had carried the county by 10,000, Rhea Defeated for Congrbss In Vir- . . fiiriia. Richmond, Va., Special.—Returns from the ninth district seem to place beyond doubt the election of Slemp, Republican, for Congress, over Rhea, Democrat, thus giving the Republicans onp and the Democrats nine Congress men from Virginia. Van Zandt’s Majority Great. St. Paul, Special.—With the receipt of more complete returns, the ma jority of Governor VahZandt assumes large proportions. It I sat least 50,000 and may go as high as 75,000—a re cord-breaking majority in Minnesota for a gubernatorial candidate. Eight of the nine Congressmen are Republi cans, the Democrat being ex-Governor John Lind, who defeated Loren Fletch er in the fifth district.

The Only Gannine Brantl. “While the New York Herald's anti trust ticket for 1904, ‘For President, Theodore Roosevelt, of New York, for Vice-President, George Dewey, of Y'er- mont,’ has a good military ring to it, the cold fact, remains that the national Democracy will place the only genuine anti-trust Presidential ticket in the field.”—St. Louis Republic. And the Democratic anti-trust pro gramme is as follows: Inaugurate free trade and so depress business that first of all every small firm competing wifli a trust will be wiped out. Then glut our home market, shut down plants and turn from two to four million bread winners out of work, after which the trusts ,.can -cut wages from forty to fifty per cent, and get plenty of help at that.price. Result, the trusts rise triumphant over all, with no competi tion. Truly. Democratic anti-trust is the only genuine braud blown In the bottle.

New Head of Princeton Makes Him- self Popular With Students. A Princeton man tells of an incident of Dr. Woodrow Wil3on’s elevation to the presidency of Princetcin which he regards as indicative of the way in which be will hold the students in leash by ready wit and a genial smile instead of trying to awe them with his dignity. When darkness lent cover to the project, on the evening of the day on which the announcement of Dr. Wil son’s election was made, some of the more boisterous spirits organized a celebration, and having requisitioned horns and a green grocer’s stock of head lettuce, descended upon the new president. At the first toot of a horn he knew what was coming, but before bedlam could break loose. Dr. Wilson was out among the serenaders, grasping each one by the hand and thanking them individually and collectively for their congratulations, pretending not to see the lettuce heads which the students made desperate efforts to keep out of view and to get rid of. When the students recovered from this unexpected overthrow of their plans some one shouted: "What’s the matter with Woodrow Wilson?” And the answer came loud and clear: “He’s all right He’s a brick.” The students then marched away, singing, “For he’s a jolly good fellow,” and carrying their lettuce heads with them. . A commission of the City Council decided today that it would not dis continue the use of water from the James river for city purposes.

SENATOR HANNA AT- AKRON, SEPTEMEER 27. “My filends, I have only a few words Io say to yon this afternoon, for I have to be-with yon all the fall. A year ago it was my privilege to attend the opening of ilio Repnbiican cam- pajgn. and after looking; over the situa- tjon I came to the conclusion that I should Rive yon a piece of advice, ‘Let well enough alone.’ That was the whole chapter, that was all there was In the campaign. To-day I say, ‘Stand pat.’ Ton are not on the defensive in Ohio or anywhere else in the United States or in the Philippines. “Now we have come to the proposi tion that there is a need for a revision of tlie tariff. I IleIievo the tariff is good enough as it is. “If the time shall come when the tariff needs revision it will be done by the men who made the tariff, and if the men whose wisdom contributed to Itg'construction gee that conditions re quire a change they will make it. It I am asked hy a man to change the tariff I always inquire of him if it is necessary to change it. and if lie thinks it is I ask him why it is iiiicessiify; and if we Start but tb c-haiigi! it wliet’c siiali We begin? Tiiei1O are too inany inter- tsis involved to change the tariff.” SENATOR I-1ORAKER AT AKRON, SEPTEMBER 27. “They are not Ui.tiiiy iVfopef Sense of the word a Jjarry quesiioii; and they hi-'vlir cab be made so. Por this reason I would ordinarily devote but little time to them. Ent the refusal of Speaker Henderson tb bis ii candidate' for rcriretioii because of the attitude toward them of some Republicans id his district hiis brought the WlSdie sub ject to the Uiveuiion of the American people in such a way as to make apology for a few plain words n;r- uecessary-. 'Ta the iirst place, irusts did not originate here, as a result of the tariff, but In England and European countries where they have free trade ftud Where they had trtists Sf every character iong before they IK1 came cbirimdn iii Arrierv tea-, and Where to-day they tire more IiiimSfonS tilaii they are in the United States. In the next place, what to-day are called trusts generally are nothing more than large corporations, engaged, as a rale, in perfectly legitimata bush Uessl--Itnd as stick they are but a na tural evolution of UtodCrtf industrial conditions. Derirottfats and Republi cans alike promote them, organize them, hold stock in them, conduct, them, and share in their benefits and advantages. They exist because there is a demand for tlism! not a political lmt a business demand. “They have become a feature of mod ern business conditions the world over, and in consequence they are a special necessity here In the United States, where We are compelled to invade and capture foreign markets or slacken the pace at which we are going in the em ployment of labor and the development of our resources. The Republican party reeogniziug this fact will correct evils and prevent and punish abuses! but it will not hamstring the business of the country to please Mr, Bryan or any1 body else. While it remains in powef It will continue, oil the contrary, to in augurate and uphold policies that will give employment to both labor and capital alike, remembering that both must flourish or neither can.” SENATOR LODGE AT BOSTON, SEPTEMBER 27. The burden of Senator Lodge's speech was that the tariff should not be tampered with at this time. He said that an attempt to revise the tariff now would be to injure the busi ness interests of the country to a de gree that could not possibly be com pensated for. He admitted the Ding- ley tariff bill was not a perfect law, but said that much of our present pros perity was due to it. Touching upon the duties on hides in that law, Senator Lodge said that he and his colleague, Senator Hoar, per mitted, it to be incorporated into the bill only under extreme pressure. The Massachusetts Senates were forced to the alternative/of subjecting hides to a duty or of causing the defeat of the whole bill.- They had chosen the broader course, understanding perfectly well that their decision adversely affected the shoo manufacturing industry of New Eng land. Bnt in doing that they had assisted New England and the country at large iu attaining a general pros perity. It was simply a ease of the greatest good for the greatest number. Mr. Lodge w as not optimistic regard ing the advantages to be gained by this country in reciprocity with Can ada. The question resolved itself down mainly to one of coal. Again, reci procity would give Canada an added market; of 80,000,000 persons, while -it would give its an additional market of only 5,000,000 persons. He said that the form of reciprocity advocated by Blaine and McKinley of necessity has a limited scope. He referred to the. Argentine treaty, which would benefit New England, but which is strenuously opposed by the cattle raisers of the West and the wool grow ers of Ohio. A tariff treaty with France could not he accepted by the United States on the basis proposed, for the reason that this country. would be giving France preferential rates, while our goods would be forced to go into France precisely the same as those for any other country. France discrimi nates against the United States, and that fact must be taken into account" In any treaty relations between the Iwo countries. Dealing more specifically with tariff revision. Senator Lodge said ihat there could be no sectional legislation. In other words. New England could not insist on tariff revision for its particu lar section without sacrificing much more than could possibly be gained. Senator Lodge ended by saying that the Republican party could be trusted In effect tnriff vevisiou when condi tions warranted such changes, and ihat when ihat time came the tsnfi would not be revised on £rp- :~ade or sec tional lines. ~ ~ XL " jFv 1S SAW POISON MAILED New Evidence in the Famous Molin- eux Case. ------— • I A WOMAN GIVES UER EVIDENCE. She Would Have Spoken of the Incident at Once, but Her Husband Persuaded Her Not to Do So. New Y oik , Special,—The greatest Sensation in the second trial of Roland B. Molineux, charged with the murder of Mrs. Adams, came late Thnrsda.. when Mrs. Anna Stephenson, the wile of a Brooklyn POlicemalii was called to the stand by the defense and testfied positivoliy that Molineux was not the man who mailed the now famous pois on package at thfe general poSloffice -jr. the evening of December 2S, I BPS. Then the witness partially identified Hariy Cornish, who was asked to stand up in court, as the man whom She Saw standing in front of her in the line at the postoffice and holding in his hand a package addressed to “Mr. Harry Cornish, Knickerbocker Club.” That was all she saw. Her identifica tion Of Cornish Was Uot positive. She said he lcoked very much like the man. The Withsss’ Sccoimt of JiOi1 move ments on the evening of December 23, and her reason for not appearing a* (he first trial were given in detail. Tue prosecution on cross-examination brought but the fact that Mrs. Stephen son had siifferen from attacks of ner- YSiis prostration within the iast two years and had carefully read the de tails of the former trial. The questions of the assistant district attorney tend ed to show that an effort would be made to breve !itsariily or deliibion. It is also said that an effort will be made to prove an alibi for Cornish. Mrs. Stephenson was on the -stand when lourt adjourned. When court opened Thursday David N. Carvalho, the handwriting expert, who was on the stand when adjourn ment was tafceil iast Ufgilt, resumed his place in the witness chair. He said ho did not believe that Molineux wrote the poison package wrapper or any of the disputed writings, and in detail ex plained io the jury his reasons for his bpihions, As soon !is the direct examination of Carvalho YiaS completed Mr Osborne, assistant district attorney, made an other attempt to get the “Barnet diag nosis blank” in evidence, hut Justice Lambert declined tc. reverse his earlier ruling excluding it. The so-called "diagnosis blank” gives the measure ments and ether ,data of a man suffer ing from a trouble tHS patent medicine Venders, to whom the blank was ad dressed, guaranteed to cure; When the technical part of the cross- examination of the witneS3 was finish ed counsel asked Carvalho if he had compared the disputed wifitirigs with tlie handwriting of Harry S. Cornish and Rudolph Heiles, both of whom have been shown interested in the case. Carvalho said he had. “Did Cornish write the address on the poson package?*’ asked Mr. Osborne, "He did not,’* replied the expert wit ness without heistation. “Did Heilers write it?” “No, sir.”“Mr. Carvalho,” said ex-Governor Black, "you answered a question here as a physiologist. You were asked Whether you thought a mail when writ ing ail address oii a poison package Would disguise his writing and you re plied “Yes.” Let me ask you another question. Do you think a man sending a poison package to himself would write the address at all with his own hand?” Ml1. Osborne objected and the court declined to let the witness answer. After the recess seven witnesses tes tified that Molineux did not write the poison package address. These wit nesses were Clarence Fbote, David W. Torrey, Sampel H. McDowell, and Geo. Duncan, handwriting experts from banks; E. D. Bushrieil, who was chair man Of the Knickerbocker Athletic Club house committee, and had seen Molineux write; Prof, George Golday, of Princeton University, who had cor-' respondence with Molineux, and Sam uel Pittinger, cashier of the New York Athletic Oiub.Louis Jacobson, who worked in a New Ybrk store, testified that he knew Cornish and Mrs. Rogers well, and that he frequently saw them together. He said he had sold bromo-seltzer to Mrs. Rogers. Cornish, in his testimony, swore he had never tasted bromo- seltzer and Mrs. Rogers said-she had nev^r bought any of the stuff. The as sistant district attorney, in cross-ex amining Jacobs.on. got the witness to admit that he could not remember the names of any others of his customers wno cirann: OromO 1SeitSfel1; The defense then called Wm. .T. Liell1 proprietor, of a drug store near tho house where Mrs. Adams died. Cornish testified that when Mrs. Adams became sick he i'ini to LielTs store and Lieil gave him aromatic spirits of am monia. Liell corroborated that testi mony. He said Cornish seemed very much excited, but that he did not look sick. Emma Miller testified she sold the bottle-holder in which the poison was sent, after the store lamps were ,light ed, and Barton Huff, a traveling':sales- man, said he was In Hartdegan’s store at the time. He said a man brushed by him and asked to see-a silver bottle- holder, but witness did not see him buy it. He described the man, his de scription tallying with that of Miss Miller.

LAST OF FORT GUNNYBA63. From Its Windows San Francisco Murderers Were Hanged. - What is possibly the most interest ing historic building in San Francisco, the old two-story structure on Sacra- mento street, between Davis and Front streets, which served as head quarters for the vigilance committee of 1856, is being partly torn down. It will be rebuilt and its identity so merged in the new structure that its historic interest will be lost. It was here that organization of the committee proceeded, and in its rooms that, on the following day, Casey and Cora, the slayers of King and Richard- son, were imprisoned after their sur render by the authorities to the com mittee. The trials were held here, and from the projecting beams of the old building Casey and Cora were hanged on the afternoon of May 22, while thousands of armed vigilants kept back the 20,000 people that crowded into the vicinity of the scene of exe cution. The committee continued to meet in the same rooms, and the subsequent fortification of the building with a breastworks of gunnybags filled with sand gave the place the name of'“fort Gunnybags.” Not until William T. Coleman and his fearless associates had completed the work .that struck terror to the hearts of the lawless and had ad journed, did the building now being destroyed cease to be the center of fearful and wholesome interest Journalist’s Triumph.

Recently she commented adversely on a per- formance gven by some members of the Frawley company. She was sar castically asked if she' could do bet ter. Miss Priest is nervy and replied by studying one of the roles In ques tion and appearing in one of the per formances. She scored an immediate “hit” and has been asked to continue in the profession.

When a laxative is needed the remedy which is given to them to cleanse and sweeten atid strengthen the internal organs on which it acts, should be such as physicians would sanction, becauso its component parts are known tb be wholesome and the remedy itself free from every objectionable quality. The one remedy which physicians and parents, well-informed, approve and recommend and which the little ones emov, because of its pleasant flavor, its gentle action and its beneficial effects, is— Svrup of Figs—and for the same reason rt is the only laxative which should be u«cd by fathers and mothers. Syrup of Figs is the only remedy which acts gently, pleasantly arid naturally without griping, irritating, or nauseating and which cleanses the system effectually, without producing that constipated habit which results from the use of the old-time cathartics and modern imitations, ami against wlncli the children should be so carefully guarded. If you would ,have tiiem grow to manhood and womanhood, strong, healthy and happy, do not give them medicines, when medicines are not needed, and when nature needs assistance, in the way of a laxative, give them only the simple, pleasant and gentle—Syrupof Figs. Its quality is due not only to the excellence of the combination of the laxative principles of plants with pleasant aromatic syrups and juices, but also to our original method of manufacture and as you value the health of the little ones, do not accept any of the substitutes which unscrupulous deal ers sometimes offer to increase their profits.

The absurdly small vote cast in this state in the election Tuesday fur nishes painful evidence of a state of political stagnation and the urgent needof another political party An un healthy condition is bred by the exis, tence of only one party and absence of issues, and we are beginning to feil the effeetof it.

To be plain, we need a respecta ble R epublican p arty in South Carolina. W e have the m aterial for it au d the lim e has arrived for it. I t is now- no cause for re proach to be a R epublican in any Southern state an d th e way is wide open for any who wish to affiliate w ith th a t p arty to do so and the goad wishes of m any of th e best D em ocrats will go w ith them to the extent of desiring them to m ain' tain a strong and active political organization.—S partanburg, 8 .

T he hand w riting on the wall is too plain fo adm it of doubt, the people are dissatisfied w ith D em ecratic rule in this State and the stay-at-hom e vote discloses a strong anti D em ocratic m ajority, and the indication points through to a sweeping Republican ■ victory in th is State in 1904.

Gathering of Prom inent Educatora in City of Raleigh. Raleigh, SpeciaL-Wednesday the State Association of Public School Superintendents met here. State Sup erintendent Joyner is presiding. It may1be'said that all the counties arc. represented. The address made by Mr. Joyner was forceful. He pleaded for consolidation of school districts, say ing that of the districts 50 per cent, have less than 65 children of school age. There are 5,653 white and 2,421. colored districts. He said that last year $1,369,714 was raised for public schools, exclusive of $161,363 raised by cities and towns by local taxation. The school tax has increased in 27 years from 12J,£ cents on the $100 to IS cents. Then the school fund was only $324,000. The school term has been lengthened three weeks, but there has not been a cent of increase in the sal ary of teachers. The speech was of half-hour’s length and was admirable, in Mr. Jovner’,3 best style. He spoke of the view of school consolidation, saying it was easy to see that With larger schools the larger the amount for each district and school and vice versa. There were-present at the opening of this convention of superintendents those from 61 counties. Dr. "Wallace Buttrick, of the general education board, was there. His presence is art inspiration. Dr. C. IX McIver was also present. Superintendent W. G. Gaither of Perquimans, was made temporary secretary. There was a bright discus sion of the consolidation of school dis tricts.

He tcld of the big graded school in the middle of each district and the primary schools around it, easy of access for the little scholars. At the evening’s session of the coun ty superintendents’ convention Super*, intendent Venable, of Buncombe, spoke on the location and plans of schoolhouses, and two architects ex plained plans of the same, while sug gestions were made by several superin tendents, and Superintendent Way, of Randolph, spoke on the observed bene fits of better houses and equipments.

Heart Tragedies That Line the Routa °f Letter Carriers. “Tell you a story? Why, yes, I might tell a good many stories if that was in my line.” The gray carrier blew a pearly -wreath of smoke up ward and flecked the dead ash from his cigar,” says the Denver News. Let ine see. There’s an old lady on my route down in Alabama who sits knitting the livelong day by the front room window. Every morning and afternoon when I whistle at the door of her next door neighbor she lays down her knitting and peers with a tired, eager face out of that window until I go by. She’s got a boy some where out west. He doesn’t write to her twice a year. Yet twice each day the whole year lnrough she sits there I with that anxious look, waiting, wait ing, waiting. I feel a twitch at my own heart every time I pass by and see the look of expectancy- fade into disappointment. Sometimes I’d’ give $50 to be able to stop and give her five lines from that good-for-nothing boy of hers for whom she’s eating out her heart.” That reminds me,” said a younger man who heard the gray carrier’s story, “of a pretty baby on my route in a Louisiana city. She’s a dainty tot about 4 or maybe 5 sears-old. She has blue-gray eyes like a wood violet that look a fellow straight to the heart. Some little girls can do that after they are older. This tot’s mam ma died six months ago, and for a month afterward she used to come tripping down the walk to meet me with a little white note in her hand.' and looking me to the heart out of those big, trusting eyes, she would say: “Mr. Postman, won’t you please take this letter to my mamma in heaven?” I used to take the dainty missive from the wee pink hand. I couldn't tell her hoir far away her mamma was. One day she came with out a letter and there was pain in the great, sweet eyes. ‘Mr. Postman, baby wants a letter from mamma. Please, Mr. Postman, tell my mamma me wants some letters, too,’ and, boys, every day for a week I had to pass that baby with tho pain in the gray- blue eyes and I wondered the angels did not And soma way somehow to make her baby heart understand.” NURSES’ LIVES UNROMANTfC.

Seldom Marry Physicians or Patients They Have Attended. It is generally supposed that, there is a gocd deal of romance about the life of a professional nurse and that large. hospitals are matrimonial bureaus where men and women fall in love with ineessact regularity. Ex actly the opposite is true. Nurses, as a rule, do not marry men whom they have nursed as patients, nor do they select for husbands the physicians -with whom they come in contact in a professional way. In the last year and a hall but one engagement among the nnrses at the Chicago hospital na3 been announced, and the incident was so unusual that i. created no end of comment. The ailair was, in fact, an extreme novelty, although tho female attaches of the institution are unusually good looking. “This proves that nurses do ftot lead the romantic lives that they are creditsd with by the outside world," said a physician. “I have frequently heard it said that men who had been seriously ill otten married, the trained nurses who'had taken, care of them. This is nonsense. I have employed hundreds of these women nurses In the course of my practice, and have yet to hear of a match resulting from one of them. As a general thing the patient takes an aversion to the nurse wao has cared tor him, and the better sne has looked after him and the more rtrictly she has enforced the doctor’s instructions the leas he has cared for her. “Physicians sometimes fall in iovs with the nurses they meet in tneir practice, but such affairs, instead of ueing common, are rare. If any girl enters the profession with the idea of 'Stpturing a husband she is r.pt to find lierself sadly sold.” A P U D I l L a G B IP P K 1I IlIiB S * Rilii H IiA D A tH IS S .

In a review of the sea power of the great nations the Naval Annual shows- t'nat in ten years from 1892 these changes have occurred: One—Russia, Germany and the Uni ted States have all become the owners of as many battleships as Franco,, which ten yeais ago was in that re spect second only to Great Britain Two—Japan's navy has been created and. for Asiatic purposes, is united Tvith Great Britain’s. Three—The British and Japanese navies together number forty-seven armor-clads o f the flrst-class—three more than the combined total of Rus sian, French and German warships of that class. ' Four—France has made armored cruisers the prime feature of liiir new construction and will shortly count thirteen of thom.

I f Potatoes, Beans or Onion 3 H appento Be Abnormally niffli, Tariff Keformers Atould Take off the Duty ancl Cheat th e F arm er of nig Profits. Among the many expressions which the New York Commercial has printed In connection, with the plan of taking the tariff out of polities and placing it In the hands of a bipartisan commis sion none is more interesting and use ful iu pointing out how not to do it than that of Hf. Charles H. Parsons,, Qf the Parsons Fruit Company. This gentleman is quoted as saying: “I certainly am in favor of a tariff commission, non-partisan preferable. Our President in his several speeches last month entered quite fully into the subject and a large majority of the people are with him. A tariff is nec essary and should be one for the ben efit of all, if possible. A tariff for the benefit of the manufacturers necessar ily is for the benefit of our workmen, and when they are employed at good •wages the entire country is prosper ous. “The President should have the power if lie, with the advice of the commlsR.*^, should consider it neces sary for benefit of the country (in case of the shortage of our crops or prolonged strikes) to suspend for a time t,he collection of duties on articles af fected thereby. For .instance, had he the power now to suspend the duty on coal we should all feel much easier, Jis the situation before ns is certainly -alarming. It there were no duty on coal and prospects Ot larce importa tions the present controversy might reach an early settlement. “When there is a_faiiiire of any of the .crops that are necessary to the support .of mankind, such as potatoes, onions, apples, beans, etc*., the duty should be •.suspended for the time belng^ thereby CiIiabling ail to procure them, if not at reasonable prices at least, at much lower than if we have to depend on our home supply.” The simplicity of this scheme of ..tariff tinkering Is one of its chief charms. An article has increased In pi-Ico through diminished supply or a*0- udrmal demand. AU you have to do is to take off .the tariff, and the price i? forthwith lowered by foreign compe tition. Wages are {co high to suit some people. Lower them by removing the -tariff. Very easy, very simple. Mudi too simple many will think. Tho Amer ican farmer would be quite certain to think so. It is the votes of American farmers that support and maintain the protection principle. Take away the votes oir agricultural protectionists, and ■we should have free,trade* in short order. - None the less it is a remarkable fact that all schemes of tariff rednctfon seem to point first to the American •farmer. He must be thought an easy mark by our politicians and statesmen if one-is to .iudss by the readiness, with which they pick him out for sac rifice. au<! slaughter. If he grows sugar beets in Michigan or tobacco In Con necticut, no matter; take away the sugar and tobacco duties in the name «2 “relief” or of “reciprocity.” Take the Parsons idea of spasmodic free trade in potatoes, onions, apples, be ah sj etc. There is a potato crop failure in ten States and a more than average potato crop in ten other $ talcs, as often happens. Kow it wou‘r clo at all to give the farmers in the ten full crop States the benefit of the higher prices that will naturally come because of : the crop failure in the ten other States, The farmer might do too well, might make too much money, it is true that his last year’s potato crop was hardly worth the digging because of the heavy yield ail oyer the country and the consequent drop in prices. Don’t let him recoup last year’s losses by this year’s higher prices. Take off the iDingley tariff duty of twenty-fire cents a bushel and give the benefit to the.-potato farmers of Canada, Ireland arid Germany. If beans are abnormally iug1* count of short crops, because of storms or other unfavorable conditions iu some sections, shall not the farmers wbo wcre> lucky enough to grow good crops of lieans take advantage of the im proved prices? No, says Mr. Parsons; fake off the Dingley duty of forty-five cents a bushel; take forty-five cents off the market value of every bushel of beans grown by American farmers. When apples or onions are scarce amd high priced remove tlic Dingley rate of forty cents a bushel. No matter if a million or more American fanners are. thereby robbed of a natural and legitimate chance of getting better prices this year than they got last year. What is wanted is cheaper apples and onions. The farmer can go hang him self. No, Mr. Parsons, you won’t do. You are evidently a very raw pi’otcctionist, a very crude economist and a very bad politician. The party that Iaiocks off Uic tariff from labor products when wages, are high and knocks off the tar- IfTfrom farm products when their yrlco is abnormally high will not last long In this country, -whether the knocking off be done by an irresponsible biparti san tariff commission or by legislative enactment. Some shallow tricks of tariff tinkering hnvo already been *nt- tefflfltfcenn connection with farm pro ducts. It -would not be wise to try any more tricks of the same sort.

The government of Egypt is under ehe direction of a khedive, the seventh ruler of the dynasty of Mahomet Ali, who was appointed governor of Egypt In 180(> and made himself, in 1811, ab solute master of the country by force 3f arms. The control of the lthedive was gradually increased, and in 1873‘ he was given the privilege of conclud ing commercial treaties with.foreign powers and maintaining armies. From 1879 to 1883 two comptrollers general —appointed by France, and England- had considerable power in directing the affairs of the country, but in 1882, in consequence of a military rebellion, England intervened in behalf of the khedive, and, as this intervention was aot joined by France, the joint con trol was abolished and a decree sign ed by the khedive giving to England the right to appoint an English finan cial adviser, without whose occurrence do financial decision can be taken, and since that time an English officer has co-operated in the direction of financial affair in Egypt. A,number of repre sentative institutions, including a leg islative council and ,.general assem bly, were created by the khedive in 1883, and the legislative council, which is a consultative body of thirty members, fourteen of whom are nomi nated by the government, meets once a month to examine the budget, and may propose laws, but can not initiate legislation. Our Power of Resistance. Doctors tell, us, in these days of germ and toxins, that the thing that counts most in a case is the “resist* ing power” of the patient. Some men and women can pass through an epi demic cr even be inoculated with its peculiar poison germs and yet shake off infection, unharmed. Others ap parently just as healthy, succumb to the first contact with disease, and sink under it in spite of the best nurs ing. ‘‘Resisting power” is an individ ual affair, and many surprises come to doctor and nurses as the frail-looking patient pulls through and the robust- seeming one dies. Medicines can only aid the “resisting power”—they can never take its place.- It determines, in the end, life ov death in every case. Scottish American. 12-Year-Old Cride Wants Separation. A very precocious child is Wilhel* mina McIntyre, of Bethlehem, Ky. Wil- helmina, who is 12 years old, became a bride April 2, marrying a farmer 45 years of age, and now she has brought action to annul the marriage. The do* mestic bliss of the ili-matcned couple was early disturbed, the husband abus ing the bride, so she claims, and she asks for $2,500 damages in addition to the annulment. The ceremony uniting the child in marriaze to the farmer v/as performed with the consent of her parents and they are the moving spirits in tho effort to annul the mar riage. B, B. e. SENT FREE.

THOUSANDS OF WOMEN s^tDYING FROM CATARRH A collcge for the education oE monkeys has b?en opened in Calcutta by a number of disciples of Professor f^arapr. Bcer Names. Now that the Boer geperals have left England we may draw attention to the frequent mistakes which have been made in the pronunciation of their names. Gen. Botha’s name is sounded by the public as if the first syllable rhymed with the word “loath.” The “th ’ in Dutch has not the English sound, but is regarded merely as a variant of the letter “t;" the names Botha, Martha, and de Moth are pronounced Botta, Martta, and de Mott. Tne Ko” in Botha has more- ovsr a lengthened sound, something intermediate between the “o” sound as heard in the words “boat” and “loot- In De Wet’s case the mistake arises from the tendency to pronounce the name as if it were wholly English. The South African pronounciation of De Wet is distinctly DeVet, the de be ing sounded as a -Frenchman would pronounce it. De J^arey’s name suf fers the least in an educated English mouth, though the crowd has a tend ency to pronounce it' “Deelarry ” with a strong accent on the second syllable. The General himself sounds the end syllable very strongly, although the two other syllables are also pronounc ed with a distinct stres* upon them. —London News.

Miss Margaret Donnelly, 21. Webster Place, Brooklyn, N.

In two weeks mj bead cleared up, I did not have- head aches, and in a short time felt perfectly well.”—Margaret Donnelly. Driscoll November Coids Should Not Be Al lowed to Develop Into Chronic Catarrh. Pe-ru-na Cures a Cold P.romptly and Permanently. *'I am glad to recommend Perunat as it has done so much for me. I had .been a great sufferer from ca.tarrhal colds until I was uiged to try Peruna, and I am happy to say that it lias entirely cured me. I 6hall never be without it, and most cheerfully rccommend it to others who are afflicted as I have been/’—Katherine Dau- ter: 239 ISth St.. Milwaukee, Wis.Most people think the success of Peruna depends upon the use of advertisements. Undoubtedly the advertisements help some. But by far the greatest number of people who hear of Pci*una have their at; tention called to it by a friend.Some one gets cured of chronic catarrh by Peruna. After he is certain of his cure he is sure to rccommend it to his friends. Friend recommends it to friend and the news spreads from tongue to tongue.

This is the wav Peruna is advertised. It advertises itself. Itsrmcrits are its chief advertisement.

The Vicksburg Herald discusa- •:,.t the ease of Judge Bhea, of Vir- gfofo. "1;0 declined a certificate of ileetion to Congress to which he Kts not entitled,observes that there is uo possible justification for elec tion monkey work in any Southern «;at« under existing siifferage re strictions.’’ Tliereis none what ever, :ui<l this proposition of our Vicksburg contemporary ought to be preached and taught by every lioaeat man throughout the South. —Charlotte Observer Xo nse preaching honest elec tions, as long as the Deiaoeratic maclnua places weak, incom petent and dishonest men in for Kegistmrs aud Judges. You must not put pliant and subservient tools in to be i aitnicted, and influenced by the uiaehiue managers if you ivishfor Uouest electious. There v/ere many men appointed Begis- !rars this year, who ordinarily are honest, and meant to do right, but ra e influenced to do wrong by the niachiue managers. They were in structed to do so and so, and were iold that it ivas the law and the ri«ht thing to do, therefore being Otweak intellect, and unable to interpret the law, they were lead •stay. There were others who Viiew the right, but were natural )y dishonest and needed no urging to do tbe dirty work expected of tbein. The law should be so plain that the chief conspirators could tie reached iu our state courts aud tU honest men, regardless of poli tics should unite to bring them to jusiice. W eare firmly of theopinion iiatthc peiiifpctiary and stripes are the only means of breaking . up tliis fraud ;iad rascality, aud until oabliesentiuieatisaroused to the annuity of these crimes, they will go nnpuuished. Proachers may deuoiiDce dancing and social games of caids aud whiskey drinking and cigarette smoking as great evils and sins, aud are applauded, and commended by the goody, goody of the country, but if we shou’ul denounce ballot box stuff 's.?, fraud and perjury, thievery aud red haii<]<?dassassination and murder, these sweet scented gera ■iums raise their hands In holy totror, and howl at the top of &eir voices, that the preachers fJiould not discuss such questions, that it’s out of place &c. It’s the of the niau of God to de- aMace crime, it matters not where j ■ “^hen committed, but many of (and shame upon them) are sifiiid to open their mouths. They JaiI t rise above their “bread and ■utter,” ami we are frank to say DB. KILGO’S VIEWS UPHELD To the Gharlotte Observer. I have read the extrkct from Dr Kilgo’s article that appeared in your paper -Irom time to time, but have not seen the article in full. BYom what I have read I agree with Dr. Kilgo. You take the State of NorthOaro Iina with its 97 counties and then counter divide into townships and townships into voting precincts and each voting precinct with its registrar aud two judges of elec tion and you have, a large number of men and iu this number you are likely to find members and officers of the Church as named by Dr. Kilgo. This being so, it goes with out saying that they took part in, winked at dr knew of the frauds perpetrated at the last election. I am informed—-by men of char acter— that iu some parts of the State men were even voted by the “machine”'who were not entitled to vote, some not residents of the Co iu which they voted; some had not paid their poll tax, and some names put on the registration books after the books were supposed to be closed, October 25, while oth ers who were entitled to register were not allowed to do so because the “machine” was not sure of their votes. I am also informed that all the votes cast for Judge Hill were not counted for him and Uiat in some instances where Judge Clark’s name was scratched the vote was still counted for him. This, iu 1902, after the constitu* tional amendment of 1900 when wu were promised fair elections. With the ntgro out of * the way, was the election of the 4th inst. free aud fair I No. Yes, Dr. Kil go is correct and if the good broth ers who are passing resolutions will stop aud investigate they will praise him instead of condemning him. There is no need ot election frauds now. The negro is out of politics and it is white man against white man, aud unless the Demo cratic party shows to people by the men it puts forward, that it is more worthy of their trustand confidence than the Bepublican party it should go down in defeat, aud not be allowed to remain in power by fraud. I am a Democrat—a Cleveland Democrat—and always expect to be one, but I would rather see an houest.. Bepublicaa In office in North Carolina than a dishonest Democrat. Itis notrightfor the “Democratic machine'’ to steal white man's vote. And election frauds must be stopped, the sooner the better REPENTANCE. j A friend tells us that it’s report ed that we are on the “stool of re pentance,’’ So far, we have been unable to find out for what. Ac-, cording to. the teachings of our Bi ble, the most accep'table service one can render to his Hfaker is to fight the devil and his legions dai ly and unceasingly, and according to our feeble opinion, the Demo cratie party here in the South rep resents the larger part of his Sa tanic Majesty’s handiwork, and dominion. W iththisview ofthe matter entertained by ua we can not devine any cause for repen tance on our part, for we have fought him fast and hard, as can be testified to by our Democratic friends, but it has not been a se cret assault, a kind we do not make. Until our Mends find out the why’s and wherefores of this repentance business, we will have to say it is not true, - We shall continue the fight, hop ing to live to see the day when his sins are blotted oat, and he is de prived of the last’ vestige of his dominions, then shall peace, plen ty and contentment reign supreme; then shall the wicked cease, from troubling, and the weary be at rest. “WE’Ylfi DONE COMK THROUGH, SO GLAD.” VOLUMES IN IT. The Durham Herald says that the election has passed and Demo cratie papers are again beginniug to say what they think.” This is a fact which must strike very of Aven, in our opinion, is not Wlgto be crowded with their i ail!i should not be. Like that 4 Patriot, they should exclaim, tad rather be right than to be !lrcSifhut. ” We had rather toil our support from the j f‘Hcd a»4 live ia an humble hut, Wta'oee of °',;r days, than to ( position and be afraid and ** to»ar<l ly to stand up for that ,cli is right, regardless of the Sequences. ^ pKOPER V IE W O F T H E CASE. -1 rs n o t W h jc J1 p a r t y t h e tii, 'u^ rs Were working for at ^- r<veuc. election, all of them de-; •* w ije sent J0 fail Winstonl iQttpus crmrfJ, Mr. Journal, eoHi ta, now proceed to enforce against those who violated elMtioa law.

The above from the Charlotte Observer contains food for serious thought. After the election is ov er the machine crowd can look un der the bushel and get out their righteous robes, and go to preach iug for honest elections. • Two years from now, the garment will again be put away until a more convenient season. The livery of heaven is often worn by those who serve the devil the most ac ceptably in this world.

Coffee drinking frequently affects the heart aud many cases of heart trouble are relieved or entirely enr? ed by leaving off coffee and taking on Postum Food Coffee* A good illustration is that of a lady who says,“I was troubled, for many years, with my heart and at times would become unconscious.

At every Important interna tional exhibition of recent years, beginning even with that of Paris in 1807, American fire-engines and ladder-trueks have taken prizes. At the Paris Exposition of two years ago an American fire-team from Kansas City, fourteen men under Chief George O. Hale, carried off all the most important honors at the International Fire Con gress, at which were represented Ameriea, France, Portugal, Holland, Konvay1 Belgium, Switzerland,- Denmark, Italy, Germany, Turkey, EttgIattd1 Scotland, Wales, Ireland, Xetv Zealand, India, Austria, Mexico and Peru. Xearly 8000 Iiremen took part in the competitions. The first contest was made with steam fire-engines, on the banks of the Seine. About 300. engines competed. The test was made from cold water in the bo.iler. The average time for foreign engines in getting a stream from the hose was from eight to twelve minutes. Their streams reached about half way across the river. In five minutes and thirty seconds the American engine threw- a stream that wet people on the opposite bank, a distance of 310 feet. The size of the stream was nearly double that thrown by the' other engines.—From “Fire- Fighting To-day and To-morrow,” in Scribner's.” - _ _ T e l l W o m e n t h e T r u t h . B y H elen O ld field . RINCIPALLY the cause of whaf is called woman's unreason ableness is. the direct result of her not being, told the truth. P Half the time a woman does not know how she stands to face a problem, because she cannot get a man to tell her tile simple facts in the case. He will say all sorts of soothing things to her and mislead her with rosy hopes, and he will try to make up by the fervor of his compliments for the lies he is telling her, and so she goes blundering along, making all sorts of mis takes, that she might have been saved, from if anybody had bad the courage to tell her the truth. ’ A curious example of this once came under my own observation. A man died, leaving his widow without any means of support. IIis friends, in the Mo; t delicate way in tlie world, provided for her, and began exerting themselves tt> get some occupation for her Iij which she could support herself. Place nft< piacc was offered, but she scornfully rejected every one. “Did you ever hear of anything so unreasonable iii your life,” cried the men to eaeh other, “not a penny in the world, actually living on charity, and won't do a thing:” Finally in a gust of passion one 6f the men blurted Out Io . the woman the naked truth—that her linsband had died absolutely bankrupt, and that his friends had been providing for her. The Woman whs aghast. She had never an idea of the veal state of affairs, and the miiiutc she knew the truth she accepted the situation with a courage, a philosophy and a determination to make the best of it that fairlj'-astonishpd every one. - So far as-busineks Women are.concerned, the chief enemy to their progress is man's fear of telling them the truth. A man who flas.a clerk who falls into careless ways, or has some annoying fault, will talk'to'liifli plainly find give him a chance to correct it before he dismisses him; but-he will not give a girl ihc same chance. He won’t tell her tile tnith about her faults. He will make an excuse about business being baa. and then turn her off rather than speak the truth to her. How many times has that happened in'our big cities! GirlS know. Another thing—and I don’t know a more pathetic thing—is that tfle whole world seems banded together to deceive women about the real facts of working life. ' Xow there s plenty of work in the world for every industrious jand intelli gent girl, but It’s nothing short of a crime to maike her-believe tluit there is any get-rich-quick way to fortune; and I ,never read any o f'ttese romance* about picturesque modes of getting a living that falls to arouse in me a righteous contempt for the authors of suck stories.

This includes fortune-telling by cards, palmistry, astrology, the phenomena of hypnotism suggestive therapeutics, spiritism, mind' reading, faith cure theosophy and everything connected with the divining of the future or the mystical or occult in mind, matter orreligion. I Many periodicals treating of these various subjects are published now in many languages, and the circulations of spine of them Save increased ■wonderfully. A curious phase of the subject is the fact: that particular ar ticles m these periodicals attract wide attention, and are often quoted and discussed In coteries which arc not usually supposed to be interested in matters beyond the domain of the five senses. Some of these magazines in the Library of Congress are kept under lock add key, and onlv given out for reading to known persons upon card, because the 'temptation to cut or mutilate certain select portions of the tfext sbems to be too great for those of less than ordinary will power. j Ot course, there is much of this literature of distinct valu», especially such as relates to psychology in any flirect or indirect way A great deal of it is ethical and is of no value as moral instruction feitCaching.

Wright, vice governor of the Philip pines, it is no reflection upon the warmth of the welcome extended to him that President Rciose velt’S pres ence was the bvevshadbwlirg feature of the (ISy1 Excursion trains were run into the city and a number of dis tinguished people were present to par ticipate in the 'cblebriltioh. Among them were' Governor Benton McMil lan and General Joseph Wheeler. The President was welcomed by a large crowd that .showed great enthusiasm. In speaking he said in part; It is a real and great pleasure to come to this typical city of the South ern Mississippi Valley in order to greet a typical Americab, a fcitizell of TeiiHessee, who deserves honor not 'only from his State but from the en tire country—General Luke E. Wright. We have a right to expect a high stan dard of manhood from Tennessee. It was one of the first two States created west of the Alleghany Mountains, and it was in this State, that, the first self- govehittg fconimuttity bf Amlirican freemen, was established upon waters flowing into the Gulf. The pioneers of T.ennessee Were among the earliest in that great Westward ififtrch Whicii thrust the nation’s order across the continent to the Pacific, and it is emi nently fitting that a son of Tennessee should now play so' prominent a part in the further movement of expansion beyond the Pacific. There have been Presidents of the United States for but one hundred and thirteen years, and during sixteen of those years Ten nesseeans, sat in the White House, Hardihood, and dfiring, aiid irott reso lution are of right to be expected among thiq sons of a State Which iiuf: tured Andrew JacKsbii add Sam Hous ton; whicli sent into the American havy one of the iflost famous fighting admirals of all time, Farragiit. There is another reason why our country should be glad that it was General Wright who rendered this service. General Wright fought with distinguished gallantry among the gallant men who served in the armies Of the ConfedCrfiey ditriilg tile civil war. We need Jio proof of the com pleteness bf our reunion as a people. When the war with Spain came the sons of the men who wore the blue and the sons of the men who wore the gray vied with one another in the effort to get into the ranks and face a foreign foe under the old flag that had been carried in triumph. IittdPf Winfield scoii and ZachSrv Tayioii aiid. Andrew Jacksott. It was my bwtt good fortune- to serve unuer that fearless fighter, ola Joe Wneeier. a memory of which' I shall always ne proud. But if we neea any proof of .the ufiity’ tif Bfir in- terests it would have beeil afforded this very year bv General Wright, the ex-Conrederate, in his administration as aoung governor of the Philippine Islands. Upon him during the months of summer rested a heavier burden of responsibility than upon any Other. public servant at that particular time: and not the least of his titles to our regard is the way in which he was able to work on terms of cordial good will with tbs head of the army, him- Belf a man who had hondrPd thfi blue uniform as IVright had hotiofed the gray. ..General Wright’s wojk has bden as difficult as it was important. The events of the last four years have defi nitely decided that whether we wish to or not we must hereafter play a great part in the world. We cannot escape facing the duties. We may shirk them if we are built Of poor stuff, .til- Wg infiy take hold and do te&ifl if we are fit sons of our Siresi— but face them we must, whether we will or not. Our duty in the Philippine Islands has simply been one of the duties that thus have come upon us. We are there, and we can no more haul down our flag and abandon the islands than we could now abandon Alaska, Whether we are glad or sorry that events'forced us to go thfere is aside from thfi question; the point is that, ps thp inevitable resuit of the war with Spain, we found ourselves in the Philippines and that we conld not leave the islands without discredit. The islanders were wholly unfit to govern themselves, and if we had left there would have been a,brief period of bloody chaos, and then some other nation would have stepped in to do the work which we had shirked, It cannot be too often repeated that there was no question that the work had to be done. AU the question was, wheth er we Would do it well or iii; and, thanks to the choice of men like Gov ernor Wright, it has been done well. The first and absolutely indispensable requisite Was. order—peace. The reign Of lawless violeucfi, of resistance to legitimate authority, the reign of anarchy, could, ho more be tolerated abroad than It could be tolerated hero in our own Tand. . The American flag stands for or derly liberty, and it stands for it abroad as it stands for it at home. The task of our soldiers was to restore and maintain order in the islands. The army had the task to. do, and it did it well and thoroughly. The fullest and heartiest praise belongs' to our sol diers who In the Philippines brought to a triumphant conclusion a war, small indeed compared to the gigantic struggle in which the older men whom I am addressing took part in the early 60s., but inconceivably harassing and difficult, because it was waged amid the pathless jungles of great trope islands and against a foe very elusive, very treacherous, and often incon ceivably ,cruel. both'.toward bur " men and toward the great numbers1' of peace-loving Fiiippinos who gladly welcomed our a.vent. The soldiers in cluded both regulars and Volunteers, men from the North, the South, the East and the West, men from Penn sylvania and from Tennessee, no less than men from the Rocky Mountains and tbe Pacific Slope-1UUd to ail alike we give honor, for they .,.acted as American soldiers should. Cruelties were committed here; and there. .TTJe fact that they were, committed under well-nigh intolerable' provocation af fords no excuse for such cruelties, nor can we admit as justification that they were retaliatory in kind. Every effort has been made to detect and punish the wrongdoers and the wrongdoing itself has been completely stopped. But these misdeeds were exceptional, and their occurrence in no wise alters the .fact that the,American army In the Philippines showed as a whole not only splendid soldierly qualities out a high order bf humanity in dealing with their fdeS; A hundred thousand Of our treopS weflt tb the Philippines.

The proposition Wfis made .00 a compromise basii; Shd iiegotiStioiifi, it is expected) will bq at ofiee efltfi'rfed iip’oii, with d reasonable hope fit ,Settlfimfipt Without the aid of the arbitrators. The rougfi proposition,, which" is to form the basis of riegbtiatioiis; is a .10 per cent, in crease in wages, a iiiflmhotir day; and trade agreements between the mirieVs and the company by whom they are employed. The only one of the four demands not touched upon is that of the weighing of coal by the legal ton. While both sides haxe expressed their ceptance of the terms PrBjiasfid.- Thfiy are mentioned only as a basis, it is understood, from which a settlement is to be effected. It is possible that the proposition can be wrecked by either flarty holding out too strongly against soiiie fjiifiStiofis; M d thus leave the whole iiiattfer iii tjie hands .Bf the Cfim= mission, whfi iii the meantime will act the Cfim- e will Sci as a sort of a board of "conciliation, father than as a board of arbitration. Few persSfls were aware that an at tempt would be iimdfi dt Sn outside settlement until it was practically in timated by Judge Gray, the chairman of the commission, who read a care fully prepared announcement from the bench.

The situation did not directly come Up in the public hearing today and the adjournment proposition was made Bstensibly t§ permit both Bides to complete their. WOrk df preparing docu mentary evidence. Clarence S. Darrow, of Chicago, one of Mr. Mitchell’s attorneys, brought the matter out when, near the close of the day’s session, he suggested that the miners be given a little more time to prepare their evidence. The miners wanted to present the due bills or wage statements of- thousands of miners running back for several years, and they found that the task of presenting them in a proper manner was as stupendous one. They also wanted to carefully examine the com pany books and this, too, would take considerable time: President Arrives Home.

This is a sugges tion -whose theoretical soundness does not admit of intelligent dispute-. AU competent and disinterested students of the question are agreed that the- tariff, constituting, as it does, the basis Xipon -which the trade, commerce and manufacture of the country are 'cuin ducted, is a matter which ought i:ot to be' exposed to tlie uncertainties of politics or subordinated to the interests 01 contending political fcrganizations. There is nothing so harmful to lmsi- SiesS, nothing which so certainly and promptly blocks the wheels Of prog ress, paralyzes the energy of the eu- terprising, alarms Ihe timidity bf 'cap'- ital, changes activity to stagnation tmd brosperity to distress, as that feel- tog of uncertainty and suspense which is inevitably aroused by the demon*. stration of a serious danger that th£ schedules of the t.ii'iff may be dis turbed in Manner antagonistic to the biaintenance of the protective prin ciple. This has been shown by GXperiehc^ time and again-, tt has been siiowii upon every occasion -when the de scribed demonstration has been made: Business men, if they are allowed sufficient time, can at the cost of a less or greater sacrifice adjust their transactions to almost any conditions -which include the element of per manency* but the? cannot do business except in n hand to mouth kind of way Nvhen they do not know frohi one day to another -what to expect; when they are -without any assurance upon -which to rest their calculations. Mr. Roose velt recognizes the truth of this as others have recognized it before hiiB-. He perceives that Uothhig is more harmful io the national prosperity than to unsettle the public mind upon this question of the tariff, and it is in order to avoid doing so that he wishes the' divorce of the tariff from politics to b{ proclaimed. He did not in his speech at Logansport exactly define the means whereby in his judgment this result, as to whose desirability there will hardly be any serious dif-. forenee of instructed opinion, could be attained. That lay beyond the scope i of the occasion. But lie said ehcugil to indicate that lie favored tile creation of an expert body to which Khouid be intrusted the responsibility of. deter mining in what cases and to what ex tent changes' in tlie tariff should be made. In other words, the President is inclined to think that the result lie has Iu view could l;e attained through the instrumentality of a tariff commis* Bi on. It inisfht. 1f Congress would abdi* cate its powers and prerogatives in 1lie premises and consent to be bound by such a commission’s recommenda tions. It might, if the Democratic party would agree that the tariff is not rightfully and should not he niade a political issr.e. if it would admit that protection has been- definitely and ir revocably adopted as. the national policy of the United States, and that from among the possible planks in cluded in its lietereogeueous collection Ihe useful old plauk of "tariff for rev enue only'’ should be Conclusively eliminated. Unfortunately or other wise neither of these tilings is in the least likely to happen. There was a tariff commission under the Presidency of Chester A. Arthur, and how much attention does any one suppose that Congress paid to its recommenda tions? Ko attention at all. Congress will never submit to surrender any of its powers in this or any other con nection, while the possibility of the Democrats agreeing that the tariff should be taken out of politics is sim ply unthinkable. It follows that the President’s vision of a time when the tariff will be treated by a body of experts as a business proposition Is what the late Senator Ingalls might have called “an Irridescent dream.” The only safe guard against the evil of tariff tinker ing is still and is likely to remain the election of a stalwart Hepnblican Con gress.—Philadelphia Inquirer. cannot su p p ly t o o, j r.-r a u<l w e w ill ex p r e ss I "fi sure and e iT e th o n a m e -‘J w r n a iw tc w n w m jfe a .

But the ‘infant indus tries’ must be provided with ‘jump ers,’ ‘perambulators,’ patent -walking devices and all kinds bf support and protection. The working masses must fight their own way, but capitalists must be given Government bounty, protection and a chance to wrest an Undue profit from the peoplei” This utterance Shows the shallow* hess of Mr. Bryan's mental processes; He has certainly been engaged in tariff discussion long enough to know that no advocate of the protective policy pleads for it because of our “infant industries.” While Ihat plea wonld have had a basis of fact a geucratioii ago; it has no longer, and it ought never to have been advanced by any one. It has not been made by any advocate of protection for many long years: but. demagogues like Mr-. Bryan repeat it as tiibugii it Were the leading argument of protectionists. The true argument for the protective policy is that it promctcs' the indus tries of the nation, develops a large and well paid working class and ren ders the country commercially and industrially independent of the re mainder of the world. In its last an alysis the tariff question ill the United States to-day is cue of wages. A striking illUstMtioii bi' tins is thi Agreement bf the 'employes fcc the American Tin Plate Company fo ac cept a reduction of twenty-live per cent, in wages while working on the audard Oil Company's order for a million and a half bo,ves. 200 pounds each-, of titt pUtte-. This is to be used in making cans wherein to export oil; and on dutiable materials thus used the DingIey law alloflrs it rebate o( ninety nine per cent, of the duty, thus making it practically free. Another proof that will he remem bered by all was the paralysis to busi ness by the ill-starred Wilson tariff and the idleness and want iiius en forced Sinong the laboring men. Mr. Biyan seems to think that tLe tariff is. for the manufacturer, not for the workman. But the latter is the first and largest beneficiary. And all work ingmen should support tlie protective policy rather thau work fol' its over* throw, for they would be the first sufferers thereby;- ToU'do Bhides A !.arfire S iz e d '* I f .” • “If the tariff were taken out of poli tics, as it ought to be,” says the Bos ton Journal. It is a large-sized "if” th £ f qualifies tills proposition. The tariff cannot be taken out of politics so long as there is organized party re sistance to the principle and -poiicy of protection. "If” .free-traders were to abandon .their hostility to the Ameri can systeni once and for all time, theu could the tariff be removed from poli tics, but not until then. And so long as the tariff remains in politics the tariff commission idea will not be real ized. NonpartisansTiip on the tariff question does not exist. Bi-partisan ship would only be an irrepressible conflict between the protectionists and the free, traders of tlie commission and ils findings would win respect from nobody. The country will have to wait a long while before a tariff commission becomes anything more than a toy IialloouVfor tariff tinkering tbeis'!'^ to SA* f 't Protection and Labori For more than Itriy years the Re; publican party has made the jirotee; tion of Aniericaii labor a cardinal fea ture of its policy. Its greatest leaders have contended for this and the re sults have splendidly vindicated their wisdom. The United States, has been made the paradise of the workingman, labor has lieen elevated, and to-day the wage earners of this country are envied by those of other. lauds. The Kepublican party stands now where it lias always stood in this rcsiiect, It proclaims through its distinguished leader continued devotion to -the" in terests and the welfare of the work ing classes and points to -what It has accomplished in their behalf as giving it a just claim fo the continued con fidence and support of labor. There must be no lowering of the standard, of living for the American workingman, says President Roose velt. Moreover, ’he must be secured the fullest opportunity of employment. Everybody should concur ill this, yet the Democratic proposition to over throw protection would take employ ment from labor and necessarily lower the staud:’”d of living. Workingmen at least slioild give thoughtful con sideration to tlie words of President Boosevelt.-Omaha Bee. ” Fiemdrkabie Photography, One of the most charming happen-.
