From our regular correspondent,
WASHINGTON. d. c., August S, 1902
The President is deeply interested
in the preparations that are being
made for the entertainment Of the
veterans who will come to the G..
A. Il, eucampment, end it is no
secret that it was hint from him
which caused the sudden revokiug
of the order issued by Col. Ernest,
Superin tendent of Public grounds
and buildings, refusing to allow
the committee the use of the "Whi:e
Lott for holding reunions during
the encampment. No better indi-
cation of the warm feelings towards
the old soldiers held by the people
ot Washington could have been
given than the wave Of Indignation
that swept over the community
when the order refusing the use Of
the "White Lot" was made public.
On all sides were heard such re.
marks as "eyery foot Of ground in
Washington belongs to these men,
bought 10y their blood on many
hard-rought battle-felds, and this
absurd order must be revoked -
The order was quickly revoked, and
preparations are merrily going ahead
to make the coming encampment
the erandest affair in the history of
the G.. A. II.
The Republican senate, unlike the
Democratic House, is fully alive to
the necessity of new Government
printing office, and it has passed q
resolution authorizing the commit
tee ou printing to sit during the
recess for the purpose Of taking
testimony in regard 70 the selection

made possible by Republican legis-
lation in the form of Mckinley law.

The Democratic platform says:
eve denounce Republican protec-
ton as fraud" There is no way
in W bich that can be misconstrued
or distorted. 1t is threat to the
whole existing economic condition
of the nation. Such being the case
Gro, er Cleveland knows that no
man who stands on it can hope to
be elected President Of the United
States. SO he seeks to "modify" it.
The reason is exactly the same that
led the Democratic House Of repre-
sentatiyes from passing the free
silver bill, and a free lumber bill,
and free iron ore bill, namely, a
trucking cowardice about openly
declaring q policy TO the people. II

reservation as that made by the
House-"Wait until after election"

called investigation, although no
names were mentioned in the
original charge, but as nearly every
man who gave evidence testified
that he had seen a member, or
members on the floor while intoxi-
Gated it is difficult to see how the
committee can do otherwise than to
report the charge true. Representa-
tive Dingley, of Maine, was the
only Republican member Of the
House summoned to appear before
the committee, and he declined to
obey the summons.
"The result Of the Alabama cleo
tion," said northwestern member
Of the Republican National commit
tee, "will be worth hundred
thousand votes to the Republican
party in my section, showing as it
does that the peoples party move
ment is no thing more than a scheme
to prevent Harrison aud Reid
getting the electoral votes Of the
states which naturally belong in the
Republican column, while the
South remains solidly Democratic.
Republicans who for one reason or
another went into the third party
movement have been gradually see
ing the error of casting their votes
in the air in order TO weaken the
Republican ticket sufficiently to
throw the election into the House,
which would mean the election of
Grover Cleveland, who let no
opportunity to injure the interests
of the northwest 90 by while he
was President, and this Alaban a
election will open the eyes Of the
rest Of them, and | consider that it
has made the carrying of every
state i'll my section a certainty"
The Senate passed the resolution
authorizing a select committee TO
investigate the Homestead labor
trouble and report at the next
session. The House subcommittee
has got so tangled up on account Of
its report that it has been compelled
TO call on the full Judiciary com
mittee of the House TO try to
straighten out things. The report
that was written by Chairman Oates
was so manifestly prejudiced against
organized labor that a majority of
the subcommittee declined to sign
it and another report will, it is said,
be prepared by Bynum, Of Indiana.
The hypocrisy Of those Demo
Gratis who pretended to oppose an
appropriation for the Worlds Fair
on constitutional ground was fully
exposed when the House Demo
cratic caucus agreed to allow vote
to be taken on separate bill appro-
priating 81 100000 1t remains to
be seen whether this bargain can be
carried out, and also whether the
Senate will allow itself TO be
dictated to by House Democratic
caucus, if it shall be able to con
troll the House.

What Free Trade Does.

Free trade gives to the foreign
producer equal privileges with us.
Upon what principle of fair play
should he have them? 1t invites
the product Of his cheaper labor to
this market to destroy the domestic
product representing the higher and
better paid labor of ours. 1t de-
stroys our factories or reduces our
labor to the level of theirs. 1t in
creases foreign production but
diminishes home production. We
can not have free trade in this couu-
try without having free trade
conditions. The Democratic plat
form demands it upon these condi-
tons and is bound to have it at any
cost. The world knows what these
conditions are. The farmers and
workingmen Of England know what
they are. Thousands of men who
have worked on both sides of the
ocean and under both systems know
these conditions. 70 introduce
them here will bring widespread
discomfort and revolutionize values.
1t will take from the people who
work for living heart and hope
and home. 1t viii be self-destruc.

lie had not then read the report Of
the senate committee appointed to
investigate the effect of the new

producer and the wages of labor.
This report, which is signed by
Messrs. Aldrich, Allison, Hiscock,
Jones, Harris and Carlisle, is
unanimous, and showed a decline in
the retail prices of PA selected arti-
clesof comfortau necessity. There
port shows in every part, a
constant tendency to lower the
prices of the ne cessaries of life
and its comforts. The report also
shows that while the cost of living
has decreased here, it has, during
the same period, in England in
creased. AS to wages it appears
that the wages in the special in
dustries selected averaged in the
United States II per cent. greater
than in Great Britain which is under

Closing Exercises of the Year at the Nor
NAL School.
Especial to the Press.]
GoRHAM, June 22.-The graduating
exercises of the Normal School took
place in the Normal Building today. The
clouds and the rain of the early morning
cleared away before the exercises began
and only served to cool what would 9TH
erwise have been an uncomfortably hot
day. A large number of visitors were in
attendance, prominent among them being
Hon. N. A. Luce, State Superintendent
of Schools, l. Warren Merrill of Farming
ton, O. B. Clason of Gardiner. and John
A. Huxley of Gorham, trustees of the
school, and numerous friends and rela-
tives of the members of the graduating
class. The examinations were more
than usually interesting and the visitors
seemed to appreciate to a greater de-
gree the spirit and aims of the school
work. In the afternoon the rooms would
hardly seat the people who came. The
feature of the day was the examination by
State Superintendent Luce, who occu-
pied one hour and a; half in questioning
the graduating class. The answers Civ
en- showed, in marked degree, that the
members Of the class, almost to pupil.
thoroughly understand the principles OF
teaching and this, added to the expert
ence most of them already possess, gives
good promise of their future success.
The graduating exercises in the eve
ming passed off very pleasantly, the mus
ic by the Haydn Quartette being thor
oughly enjoyed by a large audience.
Themes were read by the following six
young ladies: Misses Inez NJ. Rowe,
Hattie L. Kelsey, Louie A. Goodell, M.
Lena Miller, Emmy L. Mann, Annie B.
Edwards.
State Superintendent N. A. Luce, in a
few well chosen words, presented the
diplomas to the graduates. A list OF
the graduates and subjects of thei1
thems was printed in the PRESS of the

for the expenses OF the general conference. 1t
was resolved hereafter 10 pay missionary bish-
ops out OF the missionary funds instead of the

Rev. Jeniier frnternal delegate from the At

the committee having the constitutional quas
tion in hand.
DR.. Sanford Hunt was elected treasurer OF the
missionary society, and DR.. Earl Cranston secre-
tary OF the same. The resolution TO require
bonds from ali officers who had the handling OF

of sympathy for the Jews of Russia, win
declaration that they are being numerically
persecuted, and the hope tina. they would soou
enjoy the same religious rights as other people,
was presented, but after discussion was with
drawn. There was ripple over the resolution
