! or falr and just treatment in all
business transactions, will open
the way by which land owners and
land purchasers, and business men
and capitalists, and all others, will
easily be brought into commune
cation with each other.
The prime object of this address
| then must be to secure that active
and enthusiastic support and co..
operation of the people of the
State. -
We have said that those who
| compose this organization have no
interests which are not common to
the whole people. 1t is true some
have surplus lands for sale and
expect to be individually benefited
by the creation of a better demand
for these lands; and have vast
numbers of our people in all parts
of the State, especially in hill
| country. immigration will most
surely create this better demand
and the promptings of interest
should secure us the aid and CO.
operation of all those who have
lands for sale.
But our appeal is not confined to
the owners of land. We make it
with equal earnestness to the bus
mess men of the city as to the land
owner. Increase of population
will not only add to the wealth of
the State by the multiplication of
it's productions from the soil, but
it will also add to the growth and
wealth of our cities, by increasing
the volumn of business, by pro-
noting the establishment of man
ufacturing industries, and by in
surfing large and profitable invest
ments of foreign capital. This ap-
peal is to material interest and,
though it should not be SO, yet this
is the motive which moves men
readily and more actively than
any other.
But there is a higher and more
unselfish native, and surely there
are among our population vast
numbers of people who will be
moved by that higher motive.
There is not a citizen of the State
worthy of the name and what it
denotes who will not declare that
he has public spirit and patriotism
enough to desire to see his State
great and prosperous, not only in
it's material but also in it's moral
and educational interests, to these
we appeal, and with confidence
too, for help both by their approx
al and their material aid.
We appeal to the same spirit of
colf-racrifco nd xoal

Washington, Feb. 10th, 1897
Everybody has seen the clowns in
the circus who make great pre-
tense of working without doing
much of anything that is useful.
With due apologies to the dignity
OF that august body, the Senate is
as q whole doing just what those
clowns do. Circumstances rather
Observation-Disclosures are to blame for
this. The division of parties in
the Senate makes it impossible to
put through legislation that is OPP
posed by either of the three par
ties, and about every important
measure on the Senate calendar,
aside from the appropriation bills,
comes in this category.
A mild sort of sensation was
.snEeated by the announcement that
Representative Murray, the color
edrepublican from South Carolina,
proposed to enter a protest against
counting the votes Of that State,
when the Senate and House this
week assembled in joint session to
count the electoral votes and OFF,
cially declare the vote of the PRES
idential election, but as the protest
will not apparently be backed by
the Republican leaders there is no
expectation that it will amount to
mofe than a passing incident.
The basis of the protest is the new
constitution of South Carolina
which disfranchises illiterates.
representative Corliss has in
trodnced joint resolution provid-
ing q constitutional amendment
extending the term of representa-
ayes to four years. There are
plenty OF men in Congress who
would favor the proposed amend
ment, out it is not probable that
the people will give up the privi-
ieee OF expressing their opinion of
oongressional legislation every
swo years by their votes.
fhe Nicaragua Canal Bill, which
mas really been dead ever since
Minister Rodriguez presented the
protest of the government of Nj
oaragua against its passage, has
~" been abandoned SO far as the
present session of Congress is con-
cerned, by all of it's advocates.
Inc attempt of it's friends to keep
ne Dill before the Senate last
"eek caused number of wrane-
~ ana made it clear that it would
!ulre continued and bitter
ene 70 force the bill to a. vote.

cause of the impossibility of get
ting the bill through the House
that it was abandoned. This inn
possibility was plainly shown to
Senatorial friends of the bill at a
conference with Speaker Reed and
other leaders of the House ma
jority.
Whether it was the rumor that
President Cleveland would veto
the immigration bill, because of
the clause which would have sep
arated husband and wife, if one
could read and the other could not,
or the strong opposition to that
clause in the Senate, that caused
the conference report to be reject
ed and the bill further amended by
the Senate SO as to meet the OBJ
jections to that clause, is not ma
terial. There is no question that
the bill as amended is more hui
name than it was, while it has lost
none of the advantages of it's re-
striction features.
The most sweeping Congression-
al legislation every proposed
against trusts is contained in bill
introduced by Representative Gill
lett, of Massachusetts,. The title
of it is: "a bill to regulate in
terstate transportation of proper
ty owned or manufactured by UNI
lawful combinations. - Itprovides
that any property owned or man.
ufactured under any contract of by
any combination, or pursuant to
any conspiracy forbidden by the
laws of a State, and being in the
course of transportation to or from
such State, may be seized and
condscated the same as struggled
inportations. The penalty for
such transportation or ordering to
be a fine of not exceeding $4,000
or five years in prison, or both.
With such a law to assist the va
rious State laws against trusts it
would be difficult, if not impossi-
BILE, for the trusts to do business in
those States.
Congress has been asked to do
some queer things, but few of
them have been queerer than the
bill which has been introduced by
Senator McMillin, at the request of
the Daughters of the American
Revolution, declaring that the
"Star Spangled Banner shall be
the National song of the United
States. AS we'll might Congress
be asked tn declare that any one
of the numerous histories of the
United States that have been pub

An Address,.

An Address.
The Committee speaks again:
''The convention which assem-
bled in Shreveport, La, on the 9Th
of February 1897, to organize an
Immigration Association, has COM
pleted it's work and will publish to
the people of the State the result
of it's labors in the shape Of an act
of incorporation by which the.As-
ISOLATION has become legal enti-
ty. The publication and recorda-
ton of this act, as required by law,
will launch into existence cor
porate being competent to handle
in all it's phases the important in
terest of immigration to the State
of Louisiana. We enter upon the
work before us under deep sense
of the vital interests involved, of
the responsibilities we have as
sumed and of the expectations our
movement has aroused in the
minds of the people.
In the outset it is but just to our
selves that we should declare that
there are no local or personal in
terests to be subserved by those
who have organized themselves by
this act of incorporation which
may not and will not be realized
by all the citizens of the State,
whatever may be their occupation
and wherever their lation. 1t is
with us a public and patriotic en-
terprise by which we hope to pro-
mote the general welfare of the
State, and in which we have no
other interests than those common
to the whole people.
There are two objects which this
corporate organization must seek
to attain; first, and in the outset:
to secure the action and earnest CO.
operation of the people of LOUISE
ana with us and in our behalf and
second, to demonstrate and make
known to home seekers, that
Louisiana offers inducements to
those seeking homes in the South
and West equal, if not superior, to
those offered by any other State.
If we can arouse in our own peo-
pie an active and enthusiastic CO.
operation with us and support of
cur movement, our work is more
than half done and our success
more than half won. The assur-
ance of cordial welcome to all
who come to dwell among us, and

Horse Thief Caught.

Last summer. Everett NJ. Soule lost a
horse by the mysterious route and it was
three weeks before it was recovered and
Mr.. Soule was satisfied that the horse
had been stolen. Suspicion conferred upon
Clyde Marco, who had been in this city
and had left suddenly about the time the
horse did. Marco, it now appears, had
become such horse fancier that he could
not resist the temptation to take one
along occasionally and as a result he is
now wanted in several places in Maine.
He has travelled under many aliases
among them being Frank Stevens. Martin
II. and Merit H. Davis. The State de-
tective force became interested in him
and so earnestly they sought his ac-
quaintance., He was traced to this city
by Detective George H. Hartman of
Bangor. Monday. City Marshal Call re-
ceived the following from Mr.. Hartman:
Have warrant against Clyde Marco. Ar
rest Marco and wire me. G. H. Harri-
man, State Detective. Marshal Call was
very much put out that common every
day horse thief should seek refuge in our
fair city and he at once set about dig
ging him out. About 5 o'clock the mar
shall succeeded in locating his man in Il
certain house on a certain street in a
certain section of the city and he gath
cred him unto the habos at the police sta
ton. Detective Hartman came to this
city on train Ga. Tuesday morning. got
his man and returned to Bangor at 10
o'clock. Marco is about q years old.

The Athens correspondent of The

that the advance of the Turkish troops
across the frontier is now confidently
expected. Fifteen thousand Greek
troops embarked last night and today

is reserving 5000 pounds specie for the
payment Of the July coupons.
The Daily Chronicle says that the
ultimatum to precede the blockade will
take the humiliating form of a peremp-
Tory summons from the admirals to the
Greek authorities. The Chronicle be-
lieves that. although owing to pressure
brought to bear by the powers. Bulgaria
and Servia will remain neutral. yet in
the event OF war Servia will send troops
into Old Servia to establish her claims
there.
