March E. Representative Bartholdt called at the White Hout-e to-day and had a talk with tho President about the Puerton RIcan taritf bilL In spite of tho protests from all pirts of the country against levying a tariff against citizens of the United States living la Puerto Rico, Mr. Bartholdt assurtd the PrcsUest that the people of his district In St. 1-ouls are In favor of the bill recently passed by tho House. After bis conversation. Mr. Bar tholdt said: "I told the President that tho people of my district would uphold the Republicans In lmposlrg a tariff on Puerto RIcan products. If we allow Puerto Rtcan goods to come In free we must do the sans by the Philip pines. With the Philippines having free markets In this country, capital would so there, employ cooly labor at 10 cr.ts a day. send goods back to this country In competition with our own manufactures and kill American labor. This wo will not have.' Republicans Embarrassed. The Puerto RIcan tariff la giving the Re publicans more trouble now than they had before the bill passed the House. Immedi ately after the President's arrival from .w York this morning. Payne and Dalzell, leading Republicans of the Ways and Means Committee, were summoned to the White House for o conference. This was of an hour's duration, and when they left tho President's room both gentlemen declined to repeat what had taken place in tha con ference. There Is now a mutual effort on tho yiirt cf the administration and the House leaders to shift responsibility for this tariff act. The representatives of the administration bt quoting the President's message to Congress as proof that he desired free trade for Puerto Rico with the United States and was epposed to the bill. The Republicans who voted for the bill against their own Judgment Insist that they did to at tho President's solicitation. Certainly they rruko a Mrorg show In? of proof to this effect. -Speaker Henderron appealed In the R- publtcan caucus for. tho support of every Itemibllcan for the. measure, raying the -r'rerfaent-wouliT'faUa It as a party dlLuter and humiliation If the-blll failed. Watson of Indiana and other doubtful Re publicans try to square themselves with offended constituents by claiming they vot ed for the measure under appeal from tho President and coercion of the party caucus. The administration men realize that this puts the President in the attitude of having- recommended free trade In his messago to Congress and afterwards sent verbal re quests to doubtful Republicans asking for mpport or the tariff bill. Naturally, they resent it; but thus far they have not suc cessfully refuted the statements of Messrs. Watson and others of their own party. Proposes Free Trade. The Senate Republicans now are wres tling with the embarrassments of the ques tion. Chairman Davis cf the Foreign Af fairs Committee to-day hit upon what he regards as a happy solution of the prob lem. Mr. Davis's plan is an amendment to the House bill providing free trad for Puerto Rico by declaring that certain pro visions of tho Constitution are applicable to that Island. Mr. Davis believes that this would simplify the handling of expect ed tariff complications with tho Philip pines. If adopted, he- believes his amendment would be a binding declaration that the Constitution applies only to uch new ter ritory as Congress specifies and that thl would leave the Philippine tariff quzstlon to come up hereafter on Its own merit?. This is an Illustration of tha straits to which Republican leaders have been re duced. Beyond, the Puerto RIcan question looms constantly troubla to follow when the Plill Ipplnes are to be legislated Tor. If frve trade Is fixed for that Island, the Republi can leaders fear that the expansionists In their own party will favor abandoning the Philippines rather than giving free trade with the United States to the Filipinos. Senator Davis also propctts a new section as rouows: "For the purpose of this act, tha follow ing provisions of tho Constitution of the United States are hereby extended and made applicable to Puerto Rico: "The Congress fhall have power to lay and collect taxes, duties. Imposts and ex cises, to pay the debts and provide for the common defense and general welfare of tho United States, but all duties, imports and excises shall be uniform throughout tho United States. "No per capita or other direct tax ehall be laid, unless In proportion to the census or enumeration hereinbefore directed to bo taken. Davis's Amendment. "No tax or duty shall be given by any regulation of commerce or revenue to the ports of one State over those of another; nor shall vessels bound to or from one State be obliged to enter, clear or pay du ties in another." The amendment Is as follows: "And It Is hereby enacted, that all duties. Imports and excises Imposed or levied, laid or colleoted. by Congress upon Puerto Rico cr any products or business thereof, or la relation to said Puerto Rico, shall be uni form with all duties. Imports and excises laid and collected throughout the United States. "That no per capita or other direct tax shall be laid by Congress In or upon Puerto Rico unless In proportion to tho census or enumeration directed to be taken by tho Constitution. "That no tax or dulv shall iw lM n.. articles exported from Puerto Rico. 'That no prcferenco shall be given by any regulation of commerce er revenue to the ports of Puerto Rico over those of any State of the Union, nor shall vessels bound to or from Puerto Rico bo obliged to cuter clear or pay duties In any State of the Union. "Nor shall anjr preference be given by any regulation of commerce or revenue to the ports cf any State of the Union over those of Puerto Rico, nor shall vessels t,mi? t0 or from tie Prtd f Jny State of the Union be obliged to enter, clear or par duties In any port of Puerto Rico."

C c St. Louis Delegation Finds Kansas City's lee-Coated Kopjes Unten able Speculation Regarding the Committee's Course. nT A FTAIT CORItrSrON-DENT. Kansas City. Mo March 5. Despite ex ecrable weather, this his boon a busy day for the vUitlng and Iccal politicians. The Democratic Slate Committee will meot at II o'c-lDrk to-morrow at tho Ralt.more IloteJ. At tho same tlmo the Democratic pramaries all over the city will be running full blast. There is a municipal ticket, from Major down, to be nominated, and n three-cornered fight is on between Thomas H. Shel ly. James II. RceJ and A. O. Schuelcr for the chief prize. Meantime, the Democratic committee will be wrestling with the prob lem of how many conventions shall be called and when and where they will be held. To-nlcht it looks like a toss cf a penny might decide whether there will be two or three conventions; also whether the State nominating or the delegate convention will be held first. Up to the middle of tho aft ernoon Indication pointed to a consolida tion or ince two conventions, with the State Nominating Convention being given the right-of-way. To-night fully half tho committeemen say they really do not know what Is best to do in the premises. It seems certain, however, that the Judi cial Convention will bo held after the Na tional Convention and tho Stato Nominating ana Delegate Convention some time in June. There is the hottest kind of a fight on be tween rival cities for the conventions, and It Is possible this will result in three con ventions. Jefferson City. Kansas City. Se dalla and St. Joseph are workiug like beav ers and each wants the lion's share. The St. Joseph and Jefferson City pushers do not hesitate to say It Is very bsd taste for Kansas City to try to shake the Christmas tree after receiving such a present as the -Democratic National Convention. The Kaw people answer this by saying thoir town offers superior advantages. The question or selecting convention cities Is having a good deal to tin with .,.tu,.. other matters. All the hotels have full registers of vislung Democrats. Most of tho candidate) are here, and the remainder. with few exceptions, aro expected la tho morning. Less than half a dozen of the thirty com mitteemen fulled to show up during the day. David A. Ball, candidal t..r :m- nor. had not been seen about tha hotels up tin to-night, but former Congressman Dockery was among tho early arrivals and put In a. busy day. Most of bis friends greeted him as "Governor" Dockery. Among the other candidates prudent dur ing the day were tho following: Albert O AUen of New Madrid. T. M. Bradbury of Cole and F. L. Pitts of Monroe, for Audi tor; E. C. Crow of Josper, Attorney Gener al; Noah M. Given of Cau, Judge or the Supremo Court; Lieutenant Governor A. IL Bolte or Franklin. State Treasurer; George W.

"There lias not "been so much Interest taken in a meeting of the commit. tee In jean There Is stiarp rivalry among "c tTOuos iiiu cunvcntion, and tills in a. measure. Is likely to determine wheth er two or three conventions will be held. It is my Idea tho meeting of the committee will be open. I believe Its deliberations will be harmonious, but do not care to haz ard a guess as to dates and locations of tho conventions." Eedalla was a little clow In presenting her claim for one of the convention-. It was not until to-night that a delegation arrived in quest of such a prize. It was headed by W. D. Steele. O. M. Harnett and Thomas Mitchim. "We are after one of the conventions and will get It." said Mr. Barnett. Jefferson City Delegation. Jefferson City reached here first and put In some hard work with a pretty big dele gation, headed by the following committee from the Commercial Club: Judge A M Hough, chairman; Perry Under.

Few members cf tho committee knew un til to-Jay that Kansas City would seek miy oi me ctale conventions. But the Kaw town entered the contest at a breakneck pace, nnd has already suc ccded In giving Jefferson City and St Joseph a good scare. The opinion Is gen erally expressed to-night that If three con ventions are decided upon, one will go to the three competing cities offering the best accommodations. The State Nomi nating Convention Is considered tho bet by the rivals. Unless there Is a decided change of sentiment to-morrow the State .viuiuaiuife uuti-ji.um win fc Jioj2 quite early In June, but whether before or after the Delegate Convention Is yet an un solved problem. With one or two excep tions, all the candidates for State nfrui. ravora convention much earlier than uuaL Any time between May and the miJdfe of June would suit them.

Major O. r. Guthrie, candidate for Rail road Commls-loner, was the lirst to Vcnturr on the ice Held, and he had not taken two steps until he received a hard fall.

Sometimes It was n ".shoot the chutes" ride, with a friendly puddle of wnttr to check tho shooter at the ter minus, and again many clear falls were JKrored. Fortunately no one was seriously Injured. The Kansas City politicians were too busy looking after their primaries to pay much attention to the visitors. Only a pw of them calird at the hotels to explain the oau of tho abscsca of their fcllow-poll-tlrlans. "It s nice of you Kansas City fellows." said Kid Sheridan of St Lauis, in a tplrit of fun, "to tlx things so we can voto while we are here. Few cities would have U-en so thoughtful."

Two-thirds of tho members of the Stato Committee have said no such a prop osition will be entertained for a minute. O. P.

Favor Three Conventions. All th candidates for State ofilccs In the city held n meeting at the Midland Hotel to-night to discuss the situation regarding the number of conventions to be held. With but one opposing, it was decided to advlsa th committee to call three conventions nnd ask that the State Nominating Convention take precedence. Colonel John A. Knott, candidate for Secretary of State, said he was opposed to departing from precedent and thought the State Nominating Conven tion should foUow the Delegate Convention. No other candidates present concurred in this view. Tho cxprclfn of the meeting was asked by a numlKT of committeemen, and It will havo ttn effect on the committee's decision.

"When we came to terms of ycacc. it was our duty to put an end to tho claims of Spain.

"Second, ho knows that the sole object of all the government is the good of the gov erned, and the efforts which will, no doubt, be made to provide for securing benefits to others at the erpecze of tho governed that will surely fall." The silence which marked the opening re marks by Judge Harmon was intensu. At length, when npplausc broko out. it was followed by a remark in tbo room. "Just four of jou." But when Judgo Harmon declared tho duty of tho Government to be tl-.e estab lishment of a protectorate over the lslauds. thn applause was continued. He produced undisguised surprise when he hinted that one of the best qualifications of Judge Taft for this mission was the fact that he was not an expansionist. Jmlge Taft :ot an Kzuanstonlsr.

This morning the troopers were followed by about 110 Boers, who advanced around a. hill, but who retired precipitately when the British shelled them. The Boers then opened a heavy fire with Maxims and also began firing from a kopje ln the center of the position, with a long rongo fifteen-pounder.

Copyright, 1 by the New York Herald Company.) The entranco or General Buller nnd his j columns Into Lad) smith this morning wa3 i one of the most splendidly moving specta cles I have ever witnessed. It was as af fecting as the diamond Jubilee procession, as migultlcent as the Czar's entranco Into Moscow, as full of enthusiasm as Admiral Dewey's welcome by New York. Twenty-two thousand "Tommies" lan cers, foot soldiers, gunners; Irregular horse, colonials, blue Jackets and Indians blis tered, tanned, covered with mud, covered with Dioousiains ana ragged as sweeps, passed for three full hours before General White, cheering, shouting and tossing their helmets.

The civilians put General White in a landau and neighbor as the head of that commission, amounts wsre made up from contributions I dragged It by ropes to bis headquarters. And J am hero to Join in approving, that to tho fund collected by tha .CTesT'-Jio Post. In tho battle of PleUr'a our losa was less. l than 2. while the Boers lost about 40ft, Including Is) prisoners!. The Dublins carried tho Boer trenches at the point of tho bayonet, capturing forty prisoners. Tile West Yorks especially dis tinguished themselves. They wero complt xnenled by General BuIIcr. After they had! reached tho crest of tho hill, and whlla they were not only under a severe rifle ftra from tha Boers, but wero also being pound ed by shrapnel nnd lyddite from our own gunners, who had mistaken them for tha e-attny. they sprang up to the sky-line, and. placing their helmets on their bayo nets, waved them at our guns. This action exposed them to th- lire of tho Boers; but it silenced our own guns. Our men have I-arncd to tako cover, bu they still exposo themselves on the sky line to firo. and officers continue to stand. The meeting between Generals Buller and! White was eminently characteristic. It might have been a chance meetirg on a tlelj day at AldcrshoL Thero was no cheer ing and r.o demonstration. In London bands may be playing, people may bo cheering. Hags may be waving, but hens the offlccrs are saluting punctiliously, greet ing old comrades as though they had met In Piccadilly. This meeting, of course, pre ceded Buller'3 triumphant entraoc Into Ladysmlth. Signs of th siege of Ladysmlth are no read ln shell holes, nor in shattered walls, nor ln cellars used for bomb-proofs, but In the faces of the people. Passing down tha streets Is like walklrg through tha wards of a fever hospital. They carry their suf ferings Jauntily, under tho mask of a habit ual British indifference. One has only ta offer an officer a cigar or offer a biscuit to a "Tommy" to find a starving man. XEWS FROM MAFEKIXO. SPECIAL BY CABLE. London. Tuesday, March t (Copyright, -1M0. by the New York Herald Company.) Lady Sarah Wilson writes to the Da' Mall from Mafeklng. under date or Febi ary!3: "On Thursday. February IS. In tha after noon, a Boer siege gun arrived at n v Placement to the west and fired iht. irA rore sunset and again during tha tnldal-x .i,ul uous wo wqmen and chil dren. "What punishment does Britain Intend ta mete out to such dastards, whose code U ue man mat or savagea and to devil- lsh that it strips them of title of being considered human beingsT "Tho following morning one of their at tacks took place to the southwest. Larga bodies wero seen apprcaching under cover of trees. The force consisted principally of --u.i.-., or, to do more accurate. I should say wo iw only natives. "The system now adopted ln these spas modic outbursts of pluck Is to send tha wretched natives in front with a few Ger mans. Scandinavians. Irish and renegada British in charge, who urge tho native, on." whi.e th Boer who are too modest to ex hibit themselves to Mafeklng men. remain behind under cover of rocks and treea and slowly creep on the flanks of the 'nlggera flghtlnsr lo front "If th natives are able to advance, tjsa Boers also advance, bat they aro out ot -J sight directly the natives are forced ta ioji oac. ana make tracks for their laager. never waiting to cover tho retreat of th r poor devils out ln the open. n' The enemy advanced within 2,000 .jard Ji of our men and lay low. The enemy halted ln cover. Their siega gun opened first with fourteen rounds. Ona of their shots fell within ten yards ot on trench. "From the evidence hero and from re ports on tho Natal sldo. it appears that ar tillery Is a much overrated arm. At th close of this campaign the authorities roust turn more serious consideration to the ques tion of tho importance of mounted Infan try. "We hsvo held n Masonic lodge here un der conditions which are unique In the mod ern history of freemasonry. It was well attended, many visitors being present froni all parts of tho world. "The question or rood stuffs Is engaging tho attention of the authorities. Tha na tives are feeling the want of food, and tha allowance Is necessarily very email. A soup kitchen, therefore. Is being organized. Horsesv stray hogs nd the heads and feet of oxen are being utilized fcr this pur pose. The soup kitchen should be a gri" boon to all. The town Is on strict rations Oats aro procured with tho allowance o( bread and meal, the rejected husks being for the horses." The same correspondent, -wrltlcg under date of January 2), of the Mafeklng giege, says: "The Boers have fired S00 rounds from their ninety-four-pounder Into tha tows, .X long ago lost count of the rounds from tha other guna. Some fifty tons of metal bavra been shot at us, but we still pursue tha even tenor of our way. Plenty of shelters havo been built everywhere and for every body. The staff, the paymaster and tha telcphono offlco are underground. "Folks proceed to business as usual. Tha. lookout tells when the Boer guns are load ed and bells are rung all over the town; the people dlvo Into the nearest dug-out; the gun booms; the people coma out and ask casually where that shell has gose and resutno their business till the bell rings again. "It Is funny to hear one ask the best way. to go to such a place, perhaps only a blocs; away, and to hear the reply, 'Go as far aa the end of this dug-out. then cross to tha opposite B. S. trench and then round tha C S. dug-out,' The hundredth day of the siege was cel ebrated by a dinner given at Dixon's Hotel lo the Commandant of the town. No presa tickets were Issued. "On Sunday we held a grand agricultural and produce show, which was highly sue-" ccssful.

A Brlggs In Apr-Ion's Popular Scltnce Moitaly The? pulpit used to bo the chief means of Instruction and of Intellectual and moral stimulation for the people. The pulpit ora tor was the people's orator. The pulpit has In great measure lost lt3 attractive power In this regard. Tho eiaily and w.'ekly press have a gie:ter influence In public instruc tion. The multiplication or cheap books also take from the pulpit a. large share of its intlu.-n. In this rcgatth Oratory In legisla tive Ixnlle-s has t' a great extent lost Its In fluence lis plaro has be-on taken by sim ple, compact. tlmt-avlng statements, often printed hut not delivered. Committees do the- work which usee! to be done after dis cussion before the public. So the people will not listen now to the pulpit orator of for mer generations. They demand short, crisp sermons that brlstl with points, and are practical and helpful. In other words, tha oratorical and highly Intellectual character of th pulpit which u-ed to attract wor shipers no longer attract them. They feel that they can get more bcnetlt In this re gard by reading In the comfort of the home. Multitudes of peorlo can no tonger bo In duced to attend church to bo Instructed by the minister or to get his Judgment on top ics of the time, or to be stirred by his elo quence; they can set all these things cheaper and easier by reading at home.

THE REPUBLIC: TUESDAY. MAttCS G. 1000. r-o-v l N 1 Y 1 V KENTUCKY SITUATION AGAIN THREATENING. Senate Resolution to Moye May Provoke Civil Strife. Refusal to Sarrender Arms Would Be Met by Force. Frankfort. Ky.. March 5 Tit-rent develop ments Indicate tliat the situation In the Stale tan attain asuni.-d a serious phase. Senator Triplet! presented a rej-niution to usy. which msy lead to civil war if It is car ried ana enforced. The resolution, after reciting the removal by the Republicans of all th arms and munitions of the Stat Guard from Frank fort to the mountain refuge of London calls for tho appointment of a committee to de mand their re;urn. and. if refused, to ap propriate CAC-'fl for the purpoe of buying new war material. It aIo empowers Gen eral John U. Castlrman. the Adjutant Gen- .1. under Governor Ueckham. to call for Uunteers ard go to London and other ountain counties and obtain possession of tho war material and return It to tho ar penal at Trankfort. London and the neighboring territory in ths mountains is filled with Republican mountaineers. It is generally believed that Taylor's pur pose in removing the war munitions fore shadows the transfer of the State officers, with records of the State, in anticipation "f an unfavorable decision by the courts where the cases are pending. Then, acting under the orders of the court, should the Democratic ollicers at tempt to pain possession of the records they would be met with a force which recognizes Taylor, and only by a superior force of arms could possession ba obtained. Huch a move would give opportunity for Federal intervention. The Legislature will adjourn next week. Then either Governor Beckham or Taylor, or perhaps both, could appeal tor reacrai troop, alleging a Ftate of reboillon, and tho President might com ply with tho request, though It is a ques tion which call he would recognize. It bj generally believed, also, that Taylor contemplates caning a special session of tho Legislature at London aa Eoon as the regular session odjourns. W. S. Taylor left the Executive Building to-day. being called to Morgantown. Butler County, by the death of his brother, Alonzo Taylor. There wa not a Quorum of Democrats present at the session of the House, and so business was transacted, other than the adoption of resolution providing for after soon sessions hertafier In order to get rid of the mass of legislation, which was blocked when the Legislature was racing with Taylor's militia. The absence of a .quorum was due to the fact that most of u members had gone home to spend bun- CJfc a privilege they have had to forego Elnes the murder of uovcraor uoeoei. la the Eenate. Mr. Tlplett's Joint resolu tion, bearing on the removal of all the military equipment and calling for its re turn, was the most Important business.

State Examiner Lester, who has been investigating the C. ielx.1 caae for tho Republicans, said to day. "It was an outrageous tragedy, and the guilty man should be ."ummanly dealt with. the idea advanced by the Democrats Out the assjs-dnation wan ihe result of a plot by Itepubhcans Is absurd. Likewise, is the statement of ome Republicans that the shot was fired by Jack China. I have been at work in the Interest of our party, and I find that Mrs. Saffel. In part. Is mistaken In her statement of what she saw. Slio claims thit Goebel was shot from behind. That Js right, but her claim that Colonel Chlnn fired the shot Is wrong. She says Churn had a pistol In his hand. He did. He iys ho himself. By Mrs. Bonta. the wife of u shopkeeper living on Broadway, we will be ablo to prove that the shot was not tired from the ollice of the Secretary of State, intt by one of three men who passed Chlnn and Goebel at the fountain. "Mrs. Bonta sali to me: 'I was standing nt my window. looking Into the Stat-house yard. I saw Llliard. Goebel and CMnn en ter tho gate, with Llliard slightly In the advance 01 tne otoer two. When Goebel a" V.0WU1 rcaciiea me iounuun tney met three men. I heard a shst, and saw Goebel stagger. The three men hurried to the eate, the one nearest Goebel adjusting something In his pocket as he ran. I think he tired the Phot into Goebel's back as he passed. "Mrs. Bonta further told me that as Goebel fell Jack Chlnn ran up past the fountain pulling out his pistol and returned wrien the tiring had ceased. Wc have o.uer Ku w-suraony corroborative or this ward bill will hang at least one innocent man, end. If needs be. half a dorcn of them. "As a result of tho claim of conspiracy, I would not be surprised at the Indictment and arrest of several leading Republican among them Secretary of State Caleb Pow ers, ex-Secretary of State Charles Fln ley and Treasurer William Day. I have been told that the Democrats charge that the?? men assembled and brought to Frank fort the aggregation from the mountains on January 2S. and that It was for the pur pose of intimidating the Legislature.

March 5 The President font to the Senate to-day the correspond ence called for by resolution of Senator Hoar, asking for information relative to cr coue in the Philippines. It Is a cry voluminous record, contain ing much that has been mad public, and Includes lrstructions by the President, js-oclamatloas by the Philippine Commis sion, and General Otls's reports of officers in tho Philippines, all communications re ceived from Aguinaldu or his assistants, or proclamation Issued by them; Information concerning the treatment of prisoners or other Inhabitants of the island by the In surgents, and also such Information as has been received "as to aid or encouragement received by Agulnaldo and his followers from rorsons In the United States; as to what pamphlets, speeches or other docu ments emanating in the United States, and adverse to its authority, were circulated in whole or in part among tho Filipinos In arms against tho United States, amors other inhabitant, of the M.ind. or among the soldiers of the United States Referring to General Otls's rroclamatloa. the President savs. "So disapproval of the said proclamation was expressed by my authority or the War Department. It was, in fact, approved by roe. athough no formal communication to that effect was sent to General Otl." Axutnaldo'a Protect. Included in the correspondence of last Oc tober between General MacArthur and Aguinaldo's representative. General Ambro Fio Florcs. in regard to the delivery of sick Spanish prisoners, is a protest against what ho terms the "suspiciousness" of the Ameri cans. He says: "The treatment accorded necessarily corresponds with our political condition," adding that "In the name of sol dierly honor, I protest ngainst such suspi cion, as we bavo never reported to indirect means in order to wrest by artifice the rec ognition of our bcloed Independence." In this connection a cablegram from Gen eral Corbln is given, dated Xovember 10, Indorsing General Otls's course In the mat ter of the SpanUh prisoners. He says: "Tho letter of tho insurgents imply a threat. Unless you ee strong reasons to the contrary, notify Agulnaldo that he and his advisers will be held personally respon sible for any Injur done to Spanish or American prisoners in violation of the laws tnl usages of war among civilized nation." The instructions to General Merntt are transmitted, but not those to General Otis, which, the report. eavs were given In cipher. The Instructions from the President to General Merritt, May 13, 1SS3. direct the Issuance of a proclamation, saying that "We come not to make war upon the peo ple of the Philippines, nor upon any party or faction among them, but to protect them In their homes, in their employments and In their personal and religious rights. All persons who. either by actho aid or by honest admission, co-operate with the United State in their efforts to give effect to this beneficent purpose, will receive the regard of its support and protection. Our occupation should be as free from severity as possible." The President's instructions to the Phil ippine Commission of January 20, IS??, aro given in fulL The President wrote: Government Proponed. "The commission may render valuable services by examining with special care the executive needs of the various groups of Inhabitants and by reporting with recom mendations the measures which should bo Instituted for the maintenance of order, peace and public welfare. "It is my desire that in all their relations with the Inhabitants of the Philippine Islands the Commissioners exercise duo respect for all the ideals, customs and In stitutions of the tribes and races which compose the population, emphasizing upon all occasions the Just and beneficent Inten tions of the Government of the United States. It is also my wish and expectation that the Commlsslanera may be received in a manner due to the honored an! au thorized representatives of the American Republic duly commissioned, on account of their knowledge, skill and integrity as bearers of the good will, the protection and the richest blessings of a liberating, rather than a conquering nation." The record shows that on the 4th of May, 1S33, President Schurman of the commis sion notified Secretary Hay of a cessation of hostilities in order to get a vote from the Insurgent Congress in favor of nu tonou 7, to which Secretary Hay replied as folllows: Tou are authorized to propbse that un der the military power -of tho President, pending the action of Congress, the gov ernment of the Philippines shall consist of a Govemcr General, appointed by the Presi dent; a Cabinet appointed by the Governor General, a general Advisory Council, elected by tho people, the qualifications of electors to be carefully considered and de termined, and the Governor General to have an absolute veto."

Judge Tickers said that. In view of the fact that this was probably the most remarkable case in the history of Illinois, a few re marks would not be inappropriate. He told the defer dan ts that they were free: they could now go to their homes; and he ad monished them and their friends to return home and forget any bitterness and ani mosity that had been engendered during tho trial, and to cherish no feelings of hatred or malice against any witness, of ficer or counsel connected with tho trial. Ha .said that remarks made to tho defend ants were equally applicable to those con nected with the prosecution. Ho said fur ther that be hoped a spirit of mutual for bearance wojld prevail, and that law. or der, peace and tranquillity would prevail In Cartervllle.

The transaction was completed at a spe cial business meeting of the Second Bap tist congregation, at S o'clock last evening ar.d was attended by a. most representative gathering of members. The pastor. Doctor TV. W. Boyd presided, conducting devotional exercises and afterwards outlining the proposition for the purchase of the church and giving the reasons whv he considered It advisable to take advantage, of the op portunity to relocate farther in the West End Amour other things he said: "The fact which has mt forcibly impelled the con gregation to entertain a proposition to sell the present church property Is that more than seven-eighths of the members live west of Grand avenue, and it Is highly desirable that the church should be located in a sec tion of the city most accessible to the mem bers. But even this very great considera tion wouid cot have Impelled rne to recom mend a. sale if by so doing serious burdens might be imposed upon those members who live east of Grand avenue. The street car facilities now are such that no inconven iences will be Imposed upon any member, as it Is the Intention to select a new Bite In some section of the West End that can easily be reached on one fere." F. H. Ludlmjson. secretary of the Board of Trustees of the church, then made a statement of the reasons which had actu ated the trustees to pass the follow lag reso lution: "Kesolved. That we recommend to the Second Baptist Church the acceptance of me proposition irora .Mr. u. is. wells, rep resenting a body of Christian people, who desire to carry on evacge-lsllc work in St. Louis. And we ask the church to authorize the said trustees to make the ntcetsarv legal transfer of property In accordance with tne terms or the proposition." In support of this resolution. Mr. Ludlr.g toa repeated the moving considerations re lated by Doctor Bod and in addition said: "It is a source of great gratification to lenow that when the prevent buildings and other property pass out of the control or the Second Baptist Church that they will continue to be devoted to a great religious work." A vote was taken on the resolution, and It was unanimously adopted. Joseph D. Bascom then moved "that F. II. Iudlnston. secretary of the Board of Trus tees, be and he Is hereby elected special treasurer and custodian of the moneys re ceived from the sale of the Second Baptist Church and all Its properties, and from gifts and subscriptions for new church buildings." This resolution was also unanimously adopted. For a. JCew Site. On motion of S. A. Bernls. D. A. Jamison and Joseph W. Talk were appointed legal advisers for the Board of Trusteed D. A.

N-xt Sunday nfternoon the first service In the City Tabernacle will be held. Doctor Jtnyd will discontinue, his Sunday evening services. History of the Church. The Second Baptist is one of the o'dct churches in the city and is a figure In the religious history of St. Louis. The first church building was located nt the northwest corner of Sixth and Locust streets. In 1S73 It was moved to the pres ent site, at Twenty-seventh and Locust eireei. Doctor W. W. Bo-d came to St. I-n:iN 1ST7 and took charge of the church. In IT IS DOUBTFUL If Loral Applications Alone Crrr Cured a Cane of Catarrh. Most remedies for the treatment of ca tarrh are In the form of tprays. Inhalers, powders, washes or sahes. all purely local applications nnd many of them often give temporary relief, but the reason none of them ever really euro chronic catarrh. Is because catarrh Is not a local diseae and It cannot le cured simply by treating the local symptoms. Moreover, the more serious forms of ca tarrh, like catarrh of the stomach and ca tarrh of the bronchial tubes, cannot be reached at all by local applications, and the fact that neglected catarrh of the head very soon Involves the bronchial tubes, stomach and liver, demonstrates that the disease Is a blood disorder, a constitutional malady .md not nt all u local disease. To really cure catarrh the system must Be cleansed from catarrhal poison by an In ternal remedy which acts effectively ujKn the blood and liver. The success of a new catarrh remedy. Stuart's Catarrh Tablets. Is becauso It drives out of the system, through natural channels, the catarihal iiolson nnii the mu cous lining of the nose, throat and trachea are freed from the excessive mucous which collects and causes the nawKing. spitting ana gagging, because the excessive secretion Is not furnished from healthy blood. Stuart's Catarrh Tablets contain many of the same valuable antiseptics used in Bpravs- and Inhalers, but instead of being spplled to the Imiamed membranes of the note and throat, thej are taken Into tho stomach and thus reach the blood, the real seat and cause of the disease Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are Urge, pleas ant tasting lozenges, composed of Cuaiacol.

Claude Pippin, whose search of twenty three years for his parents resulted In the dL-"covery of his mother In St. Louis r. few weeks ago, has now found his father. nlo. In Viola. Wis. The meeting with the father was almost as dramatic as that with the mother here. Young Pippin's parents wer separate! when he was or 5 yoarn old. and the child was placed In a convent In Cnnad by his father. The latter, apparently wishing to keep all possible knowledge of the Iwy's whereabouts from his wife, did not return to the convent but once, and when the boy W39 old enough he went to work for a farmer In one of the Irovlnces. While there the lad felt his loneliness so keenly that he made a vow that ho would never rest until he found his mother The story of his wandering has bon published in Tho Republic In detail. They resulted, after many disappointments. In the dlseovc-y of the boy's mother, now Mrs Lvlrs of No. T?- North Twelfth street. Itecocnltlon was mutual, even after all the yeais of topara tlon. and the long-kt boy was recclv-I again Into hla mother's arm.

SEVERE SLEETSTORM. Shruhhery Reported Damaged and Many Trains Delayed. Chicago, March E. The most disagreea ble storm of the winter set In this nfter noon, nnd at midnight showed no slcn of abatement. Snow fell during the afternoon not In flakes, but in little ley illets that almost cut the skin when they were car ried along by the full force of tho thirty mile wind that blew dunn? the afternoon. At night the snow turned to sleet, and from that Into rain ard then back to sleet again, and then both at once. The ruin froze as It fell and caused dozens of in-r-sons to Injure themselves on the Icy side walks, anil seriously m'naced all branch" of the public service in which wires are used. The telephone and telegraph com panies reported that while they were not crippled as yet they fejr-I thr rain would turn into sleet by morning and so wirht their wires as lo tie up the lines com pletely. The trolley cars were running slovrlv dur ing th evening, and the i levator systems fared worse of all On the South ide road stops at long Intervals only were made and progress was snail-like. The weaihrr pre diction Is for continued sl-et. snow or rain. Reports from all parts of Illinois, Iowa and Wisconsin tell of similar conditions. Much dainag-i Is told lo have been done, to fruit trees. Milwaukee. Wis.. March 5. This city was visited by one cf the worst storms of tho season to-d.17.

Marqutttc line steamers, bound from Lud lngton. Is stuck In the Ice about a quarter of a mile frum the entrance. The vessel is not believed to be In any danger, as the Ice Is of a slush varlet. A special from Racine. Wis., says eleven pa'senger. were snowbound in an electric car bound from Milwaukee, eight miles from Racine, a I day Sunday. There was no food to le had except what lunch the m torman and con ductor had with them. The car men di vided their meals with the passengers.

THE TiEPFBLTC: TUESDAY. MABOH fi, lOW. V V y-v v FOR A PNEUMATIC TUBE MAIL SERVICE. St. Louis's Application Will n.ive a Hearing I.efore House Committee To-Day. OTHER CITIES ALSO URGENT. Congress Fccms Disposrd to Com plete the Services in Eastern Cities Ifefnre Taking Cp Western Work. Washington. March Z -The Hni:e C(im nittee on Post Offices ami Iloads to morrow v. II! give a hartns upon the ap 1cntton of St. Ixmls for a pneumatic-tube mail trrvlc. Other cities, including St. Paul and Minneapolis, al-o will present their claims t the Fame time. It Is Im probable that the committee H1 reach a decision Immediately as to.the extension of. this ervjee. The matter now belre considered by a Joint comrolTion. of thifh Chairman Lnnd of the IIoue eomrelti'e and Mr. Wol eott of the Senate arc- leailinir members. The? have lecn at t.ork for some weeks collecting and exiiminlns data as to the ad vantages of itcrIinE the service in Net? "iork. Philadelphia and llosfon. where it Is In operation; arI applying It to other prin cipal cities, Including St. Louis nad Chlcapo. Petitions end memorial have ben re ceived from commercial bodies and other lending buMne. crncerns !n St. Iyu!s. These have been placed In the hands of the Joint commli'doR examining the matter rnd will have pruper weight in reaching a. decision. At the hrariris to-morrow, the claims of St. Louis will be urged by Itepresentatlve Joy and others, and the evidence taken will form a part of the matter considered by the iTOir.!fli'n in ni.il.ing their report and lecommcnd.itlons to Congress. It I admitted by members of the com mittee of both the Houe and Senate that the claims of St. LouU for this sen ice are unquestioned. There lias been, hew ever. Mine opposition in both house to th. ex tension of the service, and point, of order have been raided to amendment. provld lnc for new tubes. Even the members cf the Tost Ofllee committers hae ben di vided In opinion u to the x.ilue of the MTvico where it covers enily mo points and is not in the nature of a complete njtcni. It I? held by some objectora that one tube, for Instance, from the seneral Post ejfhce to the L'nlon Station in St. Louis would not rive t-uch u, general expedition of the mall j-er-vlee of the city ns would Justify the expenditure necessary. Acting upjn this theory, tho tendency has been hereto fore to extend the service In the three cities where It now 1 operated until they hate ccmplete systems, and extend it Rra.l ual'y by complete systems to other citl. that is. avoiding scatterir.jr tho appropria tion amonn incomplete tube systems In many places. At present these tubes carry only flrst elay mail matter. Newspapers, merchan dise, etc., nre not sent through them. Some Improvements are being maue gradually. nd the disposition of the committee has been to derer general extensions until the bet methods have been ascertained. New York Is ursine an appropriation of IL.M for extension of her service. The general purpose of the managers cf the. House is to keep appropriations a low as possible until alter the election. This probably will defer any very large exten sion of the pneumatic tubes to new places during the present session. The House committee, however, will give n careful hearing to-morrow to arnument in f.or of St. LouH and there i little doubt that Its claims will be considered as urong and moderate as am- other cltv. At the proper time the presentation. made to morrow will tx given due consideration In tho appropriations recommended to the House. pncpAitirvo to mrrAi.i.vri:. Government Annljzlnjr J"npecleil Adulterated Wines, From fiermnny. Washington, March I It Is said In nf- fi-I.il circles here that there is nothing for the United States Government to do at this stage in the working out of the policy of the German Governmeit respecting the treatment of American meats. Our Govern ment has uniformly Insisted that no foreign Power had any right to catcchl-e It respect ing tending legislation, and hieb sharply re-buked-goreign MiniMcrs in Washington where, in Isolated instance?, they have dig it carded this injunction. Therefore, cdfen Hic as the meal bill Is to the United State Government, tho State Department cannot Jmd a. proper place Just now for any of ficial remonstrance against the proposed addition to tha restrictions upon American commero. Tho officials here show no "pen resent ment at the recently discovered effort of the Germsn Government to prevent our Consuls from acquiring liny information a to the adulteration Cf German good. and the existence of diseases among German an imals, but they are quietly collecting vl-di-uca, such, for Instance, aB complete analyses of German wines entering the United States, which are now Iielng made by the Agricultural Department with a Epeciol view to the detection of adulteration. The vines lmvorted are regarded as par ticularly dear to the German agrarian In terests, as they aro the products of Ger man soil. OKLAHOMA'S JSEbTII.M, S Til I P.

MINISTERSMEETINGS. V. W. Hopkins on ".Metropolitan Church Unity" Other Papers. At the meeting of Christian ministers yes terday a pajnr on "Metropolitan Chur. h Unit" was read by the P.everend W. W. Hopls'iM. Mr. HGpkinn maintained the po sition of bis denomination in reference to the matter of primitive Christianity, and dtclarcj that th' re was no more church unity m this tity than existed among other denomination, and in some Insiaucea not ax much. He to-jfc the position ihat unv of the first ncisia m the line e.f denominational church unity was a general chunh regis try. I" which the names and addresses of alt tha members uf the Christian church would be cnroiltel. He said congregation.-! w-ie. generaUy negligent in this matter, and consequently a large number of m-m-bers lost every ear. A second recommend atioa was the establishment of a local de nominational chutch paper which would acrv as a speclul Iwnd ant medium of com-nit-nicailou between the churche-u. He said that In Pittsburgh. Pa., jojrh a paper had been started una was lee.-oiiiing a success. A thlnl recommendation wa the providing of an emergency fund for the sutcnr.nco of a nurse ry lor Infants, an orphan'. home, an eld folks home and a hospital or sani tarium, nil of which slumld be under nom ination;! I control. Another point urged by Doctor Hopkins was the necessity of a clos er f!'owrhlp e" sympathy between the dif ferent congregations, not In the sense of an ccclesiastlchsia or social communism, but ns emphasizing mutual Interests, re source. and er,crgle:i. In this connectlm a meeting of the official beards of the dif ferent churches wa re-commended for th puri. of comparing notes, and looking toward co-operation with tho weaker mis sion churches. Along with all thi. "mass meetings for worship were strongly recom mended: nlo closer co-operation of denom inational forces against tho enemy as It shows itself especially in any given com munity, making the church of that locality feel It had the support of tho entire broth erhood. The paper iIoed with a special ap peal for th support of the City Mission Hoard A lively discussion fol'owed.

Eighty per cent of the railroad men who have been in service any length of time are afflicted with some form of kidney disease, and the standard remedy in use by them is Warner's Safe Cure. Kindly read the subjoined testimonial from Mr, Charles B. Ross, of 284 61st St., New York City, a railroad conductor on the Metropolitan Railway, which is but a recent sample of hundreds of voluntary statements received by Warner's Safe Cure Co.: "By the use of Warner's Sife Cure I have just recovered from a severe attack of kidney trouble. My system was In very bad condition. Every movement of my body caused in tense pain, and at last I was compelled to abandon work. For four months several specialists doctored me, all to no benefit, hot my relief was obtained when I began taking 'Warner's Safe Cure. After the use of this marvelous medicine, I was able to walk about briskly, and in a few days was so far improved as to be able to attend to my work, and I haven't suffered one day since. I heartily recommend Warner's Safe Cure as the best and safest cure tint can be had." i i I 1 CHICAGO STRIKE SPREADING. Labor Leaders Are Apprehensive of It Ijecoining Unwieldy. Chicago. March Z.

There is nothins remarkable iu Sen iitor Cullom's increasing uneasiness with regard to his prospects of re-clec tion to the United Stales Senate, nor in the extreme degree of personal attention which he is now devoting to the effort accessary to save him from defeat. Owing to the bitter and effective light on the Cullom machine lining made by Goveraor Tanner and his followers, the prospects for the election of a Demo cratic successor to Cullom are exception ally bright. They are to bright, indeed, that the spirit of rivalry for so great a distinction Is rapidly deepening among the Democratic, leaders In line for the honor. It is eaid to be not at all iw- probable that ex-Vice President Adlai Stevenson may succeed Cullom in the Senate, and among other Democrats mentioned for the place are George W. Flthian, Benjamin F. Caldwell, James It. W'lUiams, William R. Morrison aud jCarter IL Harrison. The Democratic hope of controlling the next Illinois State Legislature is sufficiently well founded to justify this belief in the election of a Democratic successor to Cullom. The situation is now so promising that no effort should be spared to Insure Democratic succes3. While it is doubtful, even If the Pres A -wisely directed aggresslva campaign uu-m were so Inclined, that he can re- froin now on is strictly iu order for the Illinois Democracy, -with fo line an op portuniiy presented for party bervice of signal value. DOWN TO BUSINESS. With the filling of General Otis's requisition for lifty additioual tyie tvrlters, making a total of 'SSi of tl-e machines now in service In. the Phil ippines, the last vcstlj-e of the Agui saldan revolt should speedily be crushed out of existence at least iu 6o far as Otis's official reports to the War De partment are concerned. Persons who remember the effective use of typewriters made by the Spanish General Weyler in his campaign against the Cuban patriots will not be inclined to doubt that the news from General Otis In the Philippines will soon bo more encouraging than ever before. Otis .works under an advantage very similar to that enjoyed by Weyler he has tup pressed the truth of his operations by establishing a press censorship modeled Tvith Increased severity upon the Weyler censorship In Cuba and. therefore. Ids hands are free for typewriter bulletins of the most Weyleresque description. ."With 225 typewriters under his direction there oughtn't to bo a "rebel" alive in Luzon after the first of next month- April Fool's Day. Wherefore the latest shipment of fifty typewriters to Manila should be made the occasion of intense rejoicing on the part of the American people. Great and good things are about to happen ou 25 typewTitters. It looks like business In the Philippines now. WOODRUFF THE ANNEXER. It isn't likely that Lieutenant Gov ernor 'WoodrulT of New York will re ceive that Republican nomination for ,VIce President of the United States to .which his ambitious soul so ardently aspires. The trouble -with Mr. Woodruff lies in the sudden discoiery that he can't keep his month shut on a matter of party policy until the signal is given to speak. At last Saturday night's meeting of the Ohio Society in New York he let the Cuban cat out of the bag right in the presence of the more discreet and closer tongued MeKinley himself. It was in the full flight of a tribute to ..Mr. MeKinley that Lieutenant Gov ernor Troodnntso thoughtlessly rcTcaled t!io secret plans of that groat Imperial ist. "The President:" fervently crictl Mr. Woodruff, 'tlie President, under whose administration all the forty-tit e gems hi Columbia's diadem have In come more resplendent than ever. p'l-i.-litnl ly the attrition of patriotic rivalry in all parts of our comniou iiuntr3 ami now embellished liy the Pearl of the Antilles and freshly adorned ly the Jew els of the Orient:" Isn't that prrtty esjietially the neat ness uitli which Cuha in annexed In one Indent sentence, tvilly-nilly? There's nothing to eonteal nlnuit Mr. Woodruii' of New York. He knows what his party intends dolus, aud he's not afraid to tell what ho knows. Plucky man: If Mr. MeKinley shrinks from confessing that tliis Government's pledge for the na tional independence of "nlia is to he broken, not so Mr. Woodruff. "Kin bellished by the I'earl of the Antilles' there's your imperialist fuliau policy, hot from the bat: VOll Till: 1!hj CAMPAIGN. It is ouly uatunil that exceptional In- terest should attach to the meetiic of I the Democratic tate fommittci' ill Kansas City unlay for the SM'ttlemeut of all matters necessary to the opening of the Slate campaign aud the pkicins j of the Democratic candidate:, before the people. The State Committee meetltiK to-day will in reality mark tne opening of the cainpaisu. The committeemen will de cide as to the number of conventions to be held, the date on which they will be held, and the places where they will be held. When that Is done there can be a lot of preliminary organized effort for Democratic success, to be followed by the more detinue action possible when candidates have been named aud platforms adopted. It may safely be taken for granted that the Democrat it State Committee will transact its business with a lull appreciation of the important station to be held by Missouri in this year's h litical battles. The State is rightfully regarded a, the leader of the Democratic column. The Democratic candidate for President will be named, ami the Demo cratic national platform adopted, iu Kan sas City. The national battle for the upholding of Democratic principles will begin in Missouri. For these reasons it Is necessary that the State should this year break even its own record in the line of distin guished service to the Democratic cause. It is reasonably certain that to-day's meeting of the State Committee will put matters in excellent bhajKi for such an achievement. HEADTHY AMERICANISM. It is an honest and wholesome faith fulness to American spirit which leads such Republican uewspajiers as the Chi cago Tiuies-llerald and the Washington Post to warn President. MeKinley in all frankness of the threatened appalling cost of his surrender of this tame Amer ican spirit. Not for a moment may It believed that the Chicago Times-Herald relished that performance of duty contained In its plain confession of the President's sin of omission in failing to stand firmly by his declaration that we are bound to admit Puerto Rico to free trade with the rest of the United States. No more could it have enjoyed telling the Presi- j dent of Ids tlu of commission iu dis- I tinctly repudiating that declaration aud using his personal lutiueuce to secure the passage of the Puerto Rican tariff bilk Nor Is it to be supposed that the Washington Post, gladly confesses the Republican transgressions contained in "the betrayal of our national integrity in the llay-Pauncefote treaty" and in "the bad faith and cruelty involved in our treatment of Puerto Rico." It can not in the nature of things begrutifying to a Republican newspaper to refer to the policies of a Republican Presldeut as calculated to "not only discredit the Government, but bring contempt and odium upon the party." Utterances such as these are not voiced save un der the Impelling influence of very strong and earnest conviction or ti-eir necessity. U:M1 th0 honest Americanism nrg. il tiI(. two newspapers mcntloned-the Uirlff trusts apparently ct)iitrolln.g him at will It Is reassuring to know that his party is not prepared solidly to follow him on the mad to empire. When the time, comes that the Imperialists must be effectively rebuked for their in:: lent attempt at national stultilieatiou. the re buke should le administered liy .til Americans. The necessity is one- that rises above party. TDK WOltK THAT K1C.MAINS. Great Itritniii, in spite of the recent successes which have iiime to her arms in South Africa, ran not tlatter herself that she has done remarkable work in her struggle with the lloers. The war began October 11. lMftt. Now. after al most five mouths of lighting, she has regained what she lost liy the activity of the lloers In their introductory opera tions. After five months she has placed the Boers on the defensive; placed them where the most ardent admirer of the Boers supposed they would be thnuish- out the war. After live.motiths of light ing Great Britain has succeeded in rc- moving the seat of war from her own to her enemv's territon'. Tliese successes have not been due to an excelling valor on the part of the British soldiers or to superior strategy I and military performance on the part of the British Generals. k They have been due entirely to superior numliers. The British at Paardeberg had r0,txit) men, as against less than 4,000 of the Boers. With such numerical advantage strategy is not needed. The Joy expressed in Great Britain over these victories does not speak well for the expectations of the British. When Lord Rolierts took charge of affairs in South Africa he stated his opinion that the war would be a long one; that Great Britain could not hope to completely subjugate the Transvaal under live years. He may have had in mind the desultory lighting which must be done for a long time after the actual hostilities have ended where the coun try in which the operations are con ducted is intensely hostile, as Is the Transvaal to Great Britain. In prosecuting her operations In South Africa Great Britain has up to the pres ent had tlie advantage of the Mipport of the administration in the United States, which was an effectivo means of keen- Ins Kuropeau nations from nieddllnR. ;reat Itritain will not have this Mipport nlway.s, nnd, wilh It removed, the tre meiuloiib force required in the 'Itans taal to conduct the operations and to keep lines of communication open will expos,, her to disaster should any of her old-time enemies decide to wipe their scores off the tsLito. Crvat KrI tain's war In South Africa Is now fairly tiexmi. She could much bet ter withdraw at present while her arms arc victorious and her fallen prestige re established than to conduct a war against a brave nation which mil. ewn if it be one continued victory, add notli Imr to her prestige. The bunrhers of the Transvaal have eaiuetl tlieir imle-I-uden. e and Creat Itritalu can rees tablish herself in the esteem of Kuro pean nations in no better way than by raiitins II. hi: vii.i, p.i: i!i:.UD. it will not Mvm exactly fair If. a Is :i now expected, the Honorable Webster Davis of Missouri shall return from Sitlllt IYii-i O.i.l ,1...

Washington Auglomauiacs should not resent Mr. Davis's visit to the liners for the purpose of learulug their side of the case in their serious controversy with ;rc.y Ilniain. The matter at is-t-ue Is one which seems very largely to Imolvo the right of a iM-ople to national liberty and to the homes, which thev hate mrv.1 out of the wilderness ft Is natural that an American sli.uilil be solicitous to know the exact facts in such a coiitrovorsv, It ml,! il.s 1 t te r t I ptoraii.1 tiling If a man of such Inher- itance were ltd. through ignorance, to j condemn a struggle for libertj palhetn ally like that waged by the American patriots of 1770. If -Mr. Davis lias pursued his investi gations in this spirit, and arrived ut the conclusion that Americans should sym pathize with the Iloer muse, the Me- Klnley admiuistratlou slioiild gie him a ,,..,l,., it i patient .iiid attentive hciring upon his iiriniii iu tiasiiiugion. llie leslimoiiy if such a wittii-ss. fresh from the wviic of net ion in South Africa, might save the administration itself from a most sorrowful blunder. It might go to prove that the Roers are so finely right in op posing Itritish aggrcssiou that no Ameri can administration can afford to go down in history as lending lis moral influence to their xubjugatiou. Of one thing the .MeKinley Imperial ists and torics may rest assured. The American people will eagerly listen to Mr. Davis's presentation of the Ilocr side of the South African question. They are anxious to hear the story and In clined to hope that the young Mis fiurian will be fair In its telliug. They will taemselvcs pass judgment upon Its merits, entirely regardless of the atti tude assumed by the administration. The strange feature aluiut McKlnley's patlilindlng is that he should have been able to pick so nigged and Imjiassable a patlt through a district itpiipjied throughout with Mgnposts put up by the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution of the United States and the revered utterances of America's hon ored statesmen aud Jurists. Those- were true words which Presi dent -MeKinley sjwki' to the Ohio So ciety: "A self-governcd people will never penult despotism in any government which they foster and defend." The full tnith of the words will probably not appear to him until he hi-ars the iH-nple themselves as they talk with the ballot. The marching song which had some vogue during the campaign of 1!M. ".Mack. Mack, we'll send Mack up Salt River and he won't come back." sounds more irreverent now than it did then, but it seems to have gained in truth as well as iu Irreverence. In Its treatment of General Jo( Wheeler the administration has done what it could to discount the greatest gain that resulted from the Spanish war the indissoluble welding of the North and the South ami the effacing of all Civil War hatreds. According to Lieutenant Governor Woodruff of New York, candidate for the ItcpiiMlcan nomination for Vice I'reslileiil, we have already annexed Ctilia. lie evidently knows tliat where there's a will there's a wny.

Our old friend. Hob Mabry of Wayne County, Is accumulating a fair crop of bullions on his feet and blisters on his tongue In an effort to prevent the calllnz of the Wayne County primaries. Hob wants to go to the I,eRUIature. and. whether right fully or wrongfully. It branded as a Tanner man and against Cullom. lie It known that Wayne Is a Cullom province, yet Hob's lnfluenco with the County Committee thus' far has prevented tho calling of the County Convention. Dcperate efforts have be-n mado by the opposition to bring the com mittee together for that purpose, but with out avail. An attempt was made to have the Senatorial Convention called early to force an early County Convention In Wayno. without avail. Mabry declares he will vote for Cullom if the Senator rcceiv-s tho cau cus nomination, but thl Is not satisfactory to the Senator's friends. They want a straight Cullom man clear through th piece. Mayor Daubs of Fairfield Is the Cullom candidate as against Mabry In Wayne County, and his friends claim he has a walkover. George W. Johns or Fair field wants to be Attorney General, and has been buoyed to the first heaven of expecta tion that he will land the prize. His candi dacy complicates the contest a little.
