GIBSON ON THE A. P. A.
His immigration Speech Is tie Feature
of Yesterdays Session.
HE DENOUNCEs THE ORDER
Many Private Pension Ellis Passed
In the House-Reports From
the Various Congress-
ional Committees.

Washington. May 14-Gibson ad-
dressed the senate in opposition to the
bill restricting immigration, as soon as
the session opened to-day. He urged
that there was no reason to turn back
the immigrant from our shores so long
as there were mountains to tunnel
rivers to bridge and virgin country TO
develop. Many of the states with scant
population would be glad to welcome
the foreigner, either educated or illite-
rate, If he only works. The most pop
ulous and prosperous states owed their
prosperity largely to the great benefits
resulting from immigration.
Gibson said that the power behind
this anti-immigration bill was the
American Protective association, "a
secret oathbound society, red-lettered,
left-handed, dark-lanterned organiza-
tion." The bill had for it's real pur-
pose, the senator said. hostility to the
Catholic church-a purpose of envy,
hatred and malice. 1t was the off,
spring OF brood of mischief makers.
Gibson read the oath of the organiza-
tion. This was the organization. he
said, that was seeking to enter Ameri-
can politics. There was no branch of
honest politics which secret oath
bound organization could serve.
Gibson added: THE whole people are
equally interested in the welfare of the
country, and none should be refused
an equal share with the rest in every
elaboration and in all legislation af-
fecting IL. All political clubs. societies
and associations start on their career
with professions skilfully drawn, so as
to make Ii appear their purposes are
patriotic and worthy of support, but all
OF them, as soon as they have obtained
power, are used by the unprincipled
men to do wrong. This is the history
of the Carbonari, the Nihilists. the ia
cobins and anarchists and the Com
mune. and this will be the history Of

Flashy and bright are the half sheet
flyers announcing the big celebration of
next Monday, which is the laboring
mans holiday. The committee has
made extensive preparations for this
grand event, and nothing on account Of

in making the day a bigger success.
The field sports are already attracting
considerable attention. The horse races
will be largely p%atronized and several
animals are in training for the various
events. The street parade will be mag

Would Thrive on Temporary Defeat.

Some of the silver men do not agree
that if the silver cause does not win in
the approaching election the question
will be finally settled. At least Senator
Bacon says that defeat for silver does
not mean the end of the struggle.
"The people who are for silver" he
said yesterday, "are actuated by the
same spirit which filled the souls of the
antislavery %agitators. The defeat of
John G. Fremont i'll 1856 did not mean
the death of the antislavery movement,
and the defeat of a silver candidate in
1896 will not indicate that the fight is
over. On the contrary, it is my belief
that if we should have four more years
of the single gold standard the silver
cause would come to the front in 1900
with even more strength than it has
now. "-Washington Letter.

Old Wartime Vehicles.

Of the means of locomotion in
Maine in pioneer days a Kennebec
gentleman says: Before the Revo-
luton there was not a four wheeled
vehicle in Maine. In 1862 two wheel
ed vehicles were first seen in Port
land, but they we're used only on
gala days. They excited about as
much wonder as flying machines
would now. Augusta had it's first
four wheeled vehicle in 1900. Peo-
pie travelled on foot OF on horseback
in summer and used rude sleds in
winter. Women had sidesaddles or
billions for seats, being the mems
saddles, and no considerable journey
was made by them except in that
way. Horse blocks for mounting
and dismounting were a necessity
and were found at nearly every
mans door. Grain was carried to
mill on the farmers back or the
horses back, and it was a common
thing to see a small boy perched
atop of several bags of grain on the
back of the family horse going to
mill All not crippled were great
pedestrians. and women thought as
little of walking miles then as they
do of furlongs now."-Lewiston
Journal.

The Monarch team it may be said had
everything their own way, as far as con-
ditions were concerned. Their pitcher
was imported, the umpire was one OF
the Monarch hackers. But the Neihart
rooters were there in full force, and it
was evident from the turnloose that the
Rock Diggers would be well taken care
of on the out side. Clarke was run in
under the name of Chapman, but the
boys were onto him to go, and batted
him all over the field, making % safe
hits off his delivery. Clarke is supposed
to be a pretty fair twirler, but he made
a poor showing Sunday. Kelley pitched
a good game although he wasn't in the
best of condition to play. The fielding
of the Neiharts was Il little ragged in
fore part of the game, but they got
| down to work and shut ont the Clod-
hoppers the last three innings. Two
double plays by Jennings, McCoocy,
Kinney and Joyce, and a difficult catch
by Kinney of a long fly to center were
the principal features of the game.

companions while stunned by the shock
were not injured. They picked Okerman's
body up, laid it out on the grass, pulled
off their coats and covered the body.
They then went to the house after help
and a team to bring the body in. Mr..
Peterson with others started at once and
when they arrived at the scene, the body
they supposed dead was crawling
