Rangeley, Me-, Aug. 1.-The
dedication Monday evening Of the
new Casino building erec,r by

was an event Of particular inter
est. The principal incident was
talk upon the Philippines by
the Hon. William P. Frye, Unit
ed States senator from Maine.
Senator Frye reviewed the work
OF the Paris peace com mission, of
which he was a member, remark
ing upon the pleasant relations
between Spaniards and Americans
the former polished diplomats,
the latter, men simply experience
ed in public affairs; he spoke
in detail of each demand made by
the Spanish envoye, that was re-
fused and of the American ulti.
matum that wac accepted after
four days deliberation. His
strongly imperislistic sentiments
we're cheered to the echo and at
the close of the talk the patriotism
OF the audience found partial re-.
lief 10 two stsnzas of "America"
and Mr.. and Mrs. Frye received
informally at the front of the
platform.
"Wben this peace com mission
started for Paris" said the ssna-
tor, "the President wanted ouly
Luzon; the Secretary of State, a
coaling station, while one OF us
held that to turn tail and run WAS
the only way out of the thing.
why did we come to the con-
clusion we needed the entire Phil
ippine archipelago Humanity
on the part of most of us-not on
my part, however. l wanted that
archipelago"
Regarding the pay ment OF TWEEN
ty millions OF dollars to Spa;a,
Mr.. Frye created amusement by
declaring that Uncle Sam pays il
for exactly the same reason a
gentleman appears at dinner

not feel decent il otherwise cloth.

The SONG OF A DOL AR

And I'm not his only son;
He's proud of me because l am
The man behind the gun.
He's got lots more just like me,
And he loves us just the same;
You can change me for most any
thing,
But you cannot change my name.
1 was born in San Francisco,
Not 30 very long ago;
And can tell some funny stories
OF my travels to and fro.
My first acquaintance was man
Who worked day for me,
We did the town together
And were parted IN the spree.
The man behind TIE counter
Paid the icemsu with M then,
After which | pressed tue palms of
Nearly half a million men.
Some didn't 81 EN- to like me,
For they failed to keep me long;
But others safely locked me up
In boxes big and strong.
I've been despatched across the
country,
And have sailed the sea in ships;
I've been snapped for stuff in
bottles,
And exchanged for ivory chips.
I've introduced number
Into swell society;
They'd have had no antecedents
If ii hadn't been for me.
I've dabbled some in politics,
And sometimes cast a vote;
And I've been to church on Sun
day;
In the pocket OF coat
There pennies got ahead OF me
Ii truth l must relate;
IT'S seldom that l ever take
A drop into the plate.
I've summoned hope to many q
And helped make others mad;
I've clinked in pockets that were
Whose owners still were sad.
I've found though l was made to

Most anything on earth;
There lots of things l cannot get

I've helped to buy a TO, eign couu.
For a rich American Miss;

Where l hope to stay awhile;

ment, and they will necessarily demand
time for this purpose. The river and
harbor bill carries the Nicaragua canal
provision and other additional appro-
priations of large sums of money. Five
bills which have not yet been reported
to the Senate are the sundry civil, the
naval, the army, the Notifications and
the general deficiency. All are import
ant and each will require considerable
time for disposal. Of these five the
Committee on Appropriations has con-
sidered only the sundry civil bills fate.
The Senate will get them all through,
however, unless unexpected opposition
should be developed to some OF them.
The calendar is full of bills of pri-
vate and semi-private nature, and also
contains many measures of general
public Importance Many Of these are
unobjectionable to all the members Of
the Senate, and majority Of those Of
this class will pass.
The beginning of the day session Will
probably be advanced TO 10 or IL o'clock
each day of the week, and night ses-
sions are also counted upon for the
greater part of il.

Eastern Newspapers Will Cease At

Special Dispatch to The Call.

CHICAGO, Feb. 26.-A Washington
special 10 the Inter Ocean says: The
persistent fight made on Secretary AIger
by certain New York and New England
newspapers has two-fold purpose.
First, ii is to discredit the administra-
ton, of which Alger is a member. Sec
ond, there is desire to force upon the
President Encouragement of his Cab
met and give recognition TO the Cleve-
land Democracy.
Two members of Mr.. Clevelands last
Cabinet have been indirectly suggested
to the President as able TO quiet criti-
cism of the War Department if either
should be placed at its head as Secre-
tary of War. These two men are the
closest and most ardent friends of Mr..
Cleveland. They are ex-Secretary Of
State OIney and ex-Secretary of War
Lamont. Both are gold Democrats, and
more bitter in their opposition to the
Democratic party as now organized
than are the Republicans They are
representative of "CieyeIandism" and
the gold standard
Eastern newspapers which represent
the Geld Democrats and have been con-
tinuaIly abusing President Mckinley
because he has not tried to have Con-
gress carry out Secretary Cages pet
schemes for currency reform are max
ing the campaign against Secretary
Alger at this time with the hope that
they can brighten the President into
preparing for the next campaign by
cCnciHating the Cleveland Democrats
and taking one of them into the Cabi-
net.
Chief among these papers which have
abused Mckinley over Ayers shoulder
is the New York Herald, of which
James Gordon Bennett of New York
and Paris is owner and editor. To-day
it became known that Bennett has had
il made known to the President that
the Herald is ready 10 drop its fight
upon the administration il Alger be re-
moved and either Lamont or Olney
named as his successor in the Cabinet.
In this Bennett is initiating to a certain
extent his father who in 1862 praCti-
caIly compelled Lincoln to remove Sec
rotary OF War Cameron and name as
his successor Edwin NJ. Stanton. a
Democrat who had served in Bu-
chanan's Cabinet as Attorney General.
But Bennett has another object. His
only politics is gold. If he can dictate
the Secretary Of War he can control
him, and through him the valuable con-
cessiOns which will be made through
the war Office in Cuba, Porto Rico and
the Philippines while they are under
military control.
Through the same channel by which
Mckinley was notified Of Benefits
wishes it was also made known to the
President that the influence of the
Cleveland democracy and mugwump
press would not be insignificant in the
next campaign, and also that, having
ignored their demands as to the cur
rency by not calling. an extra session
to enact currency legislation along the
lines suggested by Secretary Gage, he
cannot hope to hold this support unless
he does something to show his friend
ship for them and their opinions.

IMPORTANT MATTERS
BEFORE THE SENATE

WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.-The week
will open with the compromise army
bill still before the Senate, but it is i'm
possible to say how long it may con-
tfnue TO demand the attention Of that
body. The best opinion is to the effect
that a vote Will be secured Monday
but that depends largely upon the tenn
per of German and his friends, who in
sist upon the amendment of the army
bill so as to further curtail the size
of the army in 1901. It is not, how
ever. believed that they will press their
opposition to the point of entering into
an extended controversy over the mer-
Its of the measure. and the friends of
the bill count confidently on vote
before adjournment on Monday.
German disclaims any intention to
force delay, but says he will press his
amendment as long as there is any
chance of success. If the debate should
be continued to any considerable length
the action would be generally accepted
as indicating purpose to force an ex
ira session, as all admit that with
as many appropriation bills as are
pending it is impracticable to give very
much more time to the army bill and
still pass the supply bills before the 4th
instant There is yet no danger of fail
ure of either the army bill or the appro-
priation bills. No Senator can be found
who avows himself as DESTROYS of fore
ing called session. Hence the general
belief that all these measures will be-
come laws, ard when Congress adj
journs for the session next Saturday
legislation will be in such shape as to
render it possible for the legislators to
remain at their homes until next De-
cember There is no doubt of the
passage of the army bill by large ma
jority when the vote is taken
The appropriation bills will demand
almost all the attention of the Senate,
as the army bill is out of the way, and
the Senate will have to materially in
crease the length of sessions in order
to secure their enactment into laws
There are still five of these bills which
have not as yet received attention from
the Senate, and five others which are in
conference and which require more or
less consideration in conference
The bills in conference are those pro-
viding appropriations for the Indian Of
fee, Postoffice and Agricultural depart
ments and for the District of Columbia
and the Improvement Of rivers and har-
bors There are no radical points of
difference in any of these bills except
in the river and harbor bill, but there
are many questions requiring adjust

RUNAWAY STORE
RACES DOWN HILL
A TWo-Story Buildings
Mad Flight.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

TACOMA. Feb. 26,-Two-story build
ings do not often run away, but that
is what one did in Tacoma this morn
ing. 1t was an old store building be-
ing moved down the steep slope Of
Eleventh street to and across Pacific
avenue. 1t had reached Eleventh and
E streets on rollers. There it was load
ed on big lumber trucks. with four
two-horse teams attached in front. A
big chain brake was rugged UP and ar
rangements made to move the structure
down hill early this morning, when the
electric wires could be cut and all the
currents shut off. Just as the start was
made the chain brake broke. and in
half minute building, horses, wagons
and all had covered two long blocks
down the hill.
Eleventh street there has grade OF
nearly % per cent. The frightened
horses galloped at full speed in front
of the big structure, which threatened
at every moment to topple over on
them. Several linemen were out to cut
the electric wires should it be neces-
sary. They instantly recognized the
danger of the situation. and cut the
wires Just as the building passed by.
Otherwise it would have been thrown
sidewise into the stores along Eleventh
street. besides pulling down many cleo
trio light poles.
The runaway building was stopped in
it's headlong flight by the fortunate
breaking Of wagon wheel when =
street was reached. This let one corner
of the building down and arrested its
progress.
Thirty electric linemen were working
to-day repairing the wires that were
cut or pulled down.
