He is worthy of support and he act
ually needs the emoluments ot
the office for his maintenance and

make no mistake in giving MIR
Willis a great big majority.
J. NJ. BAKER.
Our District Attorney is the Re.
publican party's nominee for re-
election. 1t has been the universal
custom in Snyder county to give al
officer two terms and as Attorney
Baker has honestly and faithfully
served in his position it is not more
than right to give him another
term.
JOS. Il. HENDRICKS.
Last but not least in our consid-
erations is the position Of Jury
Commissioner. Joseph II. Hen
bricks has been nominated by the
Republican party and as such nomi-
nee he is entitled to Il good round
majority. He is in needy circum-
stances and the position, while not
Us rcmuncrativc as other Offices, will
still give him support that will
greatly assist him. This in brief is
the makeup of the ticket Republic
cans will be called upon to vote on
election day. Admitting the good
qualifications OF the democratic op-
poncntS, it must not be forgotten
that the Republican candidates
stand for Republican principles that
have done 50 much to revive bust
ness and get the manufacturing in
.lustricS on their feet again. You
will make no mistake in putting
your Y in the circle and vote the
straight Republican ticket.

Sherman Have International Mat

the premier of Canada, this afternoon be-
gan the first of a series of conferences
for the purpose Of bringing about an
agreement by which as many as possible
of the questions now causing friction be-
tween the United States and the Domin-
ion of Canada may be amicably adjusted
by treaty or otherwise. These conferences
will be Independent of the Behring Sea
seal fisheries conference, which was the
immediate OCCASION for the Canadian pre-
mier's visit to Washington
Among the causes of friction is the ques-
ton of the rights of citizens of either
to pursue business callings in the territory
of the other, and the tariff question. The
conference this afternoon was brought
about by note which Secretary Sherman
this morning sent to Sir Wilfrid Laurier
asking him if it would be convenient to
the latter to meet the Secretary this af
ternoon the Canadian minister responding
in the affirmative. The conference accord
ingly began at 1870 p. m. in the State De-
partment.
Mr.. Sherman and Sir Wilfrid were to-
gether for two hours. 1t can be stated on
to the consideration of the many import
ant questions affecting the general rela-
lions between the United States and Can
ada. In such a discussion the Secretary
of State and the Canadian premier found
themselves much in accord. Mr. Sherman
mas long favored the most coruIal rcIacror
between the United States and Canada,
having been, while in the Senate, author
of several resolutions in that direction. Sir
Wilfridl has been the conspicuous expon-
ent of the same view in Canada.

prevail Of any move of Sir Wilfrid Laurier
looking to placing the United States on
the same basis as Great Britain in tariff
affairs the matter was called to the at
tention of the Canadian officials. In re-
Spouse an authoritative statement was
made that no such dsapproval had been
expressed by the imperial authorities.

p. Miles, pastor OF the First Presby-
terrain church Of Ravenswood, L. Il, to
whom it is alleged that Mrs. Mack made
her confession, said that he had not at
tempted to work on the woman's feel
ings, as has been alleged. Mr.. Niles
said he began to visit the Jail at the re-
quest of the Jail physician, who thought
that he could do Mrs. Mack good. Mr.
Miles said that during his first few visits
to the Jail Mrs. Mack ridiculed religion,
but that he kept on preaching in the jail
corridor. On Sunday last he took as
his text, Those who claim Him, yet
will Trust
During the sermon Mr.. Miles said that
he noticed that Mrs. Mack was greatly
agitated and was crying. and when he
had finished, he says Mrs. Mack came
to him and told him she wanted to con-
fess the murder Mr.. Miles said he told
her that he did not care to hear the con-
fession. but told her to pray to the Lord.
She got down on her knees and prayed,
and later she told him that the prayer
had greatly relieved her, and that a
great load had been lifted from her
mind. He then left her without hear
ing the confession. He says that on
Tuesday Mrs Mack sent for him, and
when he arrived at the Jail she confessed
the crime to him in all its details.

ton that committee of three clergy
