OLDrowN, Me-, Sept I4.-Big Thun-
der, chief of the Penobscot tribe of In
dians, has everything in readiness for
his canoe trip to Washington to see the
Great Father" and unless something
unforeseen happens to prevent he will
take his departure from here tomorrow
He will be accompanied by Peter Nichola
who is probably the best known member
of the tribe outside the chief. Together
the two will paddle their frail craft along
the Atlantic coast until they come to the
entrance of Chesapeak bay which they
will ascend and by way of the Potomac
reach the national capital. There is not
nail III the craft, wooden plugs being
used where necessary The bark is held
together principally by sewing. Many of
of the lighthouse keepers along the New
England and New Jersey coasts have
written t. Big Thunder, extending an IN
yitation to stop with them on the way,
and the invitations will be accepted as
tar as possible.

speech of the campaign. being scheduled
as the chief orator at the celebration of
Republican day at the Stephenson county
fair at Freeport. IT was the general
opinion earlier in the campaign that
Governor Tanner would take no active
part in the contest this fall, so far as
speech making was concerned, and this
belief was strengthened by his recent
trip to Colorado in search of health.
Senator Cullom's activity on the stump,
however ,ssevidently caused change in
the gubernatorial mind and immediately
upon his return from the west Governor
Tanner wired the republican state speak
ers' bureau that his "coat was Off and
he wanted to work. The governor S sud-
den activity is regarded with much in-
terest in political circles as it is looked
upon as an indication that the Tanner.

After Illegal Voters.

BOSTON, Mass Sept. I4.-After today
it is going to be more difficult for an
alien to be naturalized in Boston than it
has been in the past Jndge Lowell, OF
the United States district court, recently
formulated some new rules governing
the matter and he announces that these
rules will be effective tomorrow--in time
to throw some extra difficulties in the
way of those desirous of casting an IL
legal ballot at the polls i'll November.
Under the new regulations applicants for
citizenship will be obliged to file their
papers ten days in advance, and their
names and addresses will be conspicu-
ously posted i'll the Federal building
Objections thereto may be made in writ
ing, and such objections will be heard to-
gether with the application. In an in
dividual case, for special cause shown by
petition setting out the exceptional cir
cumstances, the time of posting may be
shortened to not less than two days.
The oath of the applicant will not be
deemed sufficient to establish his age at
the time Of his arrival in the United
States, but he may, at the discretion of
the court, be examined concerning the
same. The judge announces, moreover,
that the applicants may expect searching
inquiries concerning their knowledge of

SATISFIED

The interviews with Republicans
AID Independents published in the
Chronicle this week show that in
Morristown and throughout our coun-
ty the Republican platform and the
nominees are alike highly satisfactory
10 the people. It is not surprising
that this should be the case, because
the Republicans have fully carried out
all the promises made in their plat
form five years ago, and that. although
they have had to conduct war with
Spain, aud to provide stable govern
ment in those islands, for the care of
which the fortunes of war made us
responsible.
Our monetary system has been placed
on a sound basis and it will continue so
as long as the Republican party re-
mains in control. The Democrats are
still laboring under the free silver
lelusion, and it is possible that if
Bryan were elected there might be
by 1908 a Democratic majority in
both houses of congress, Ill which
case the free coinage of silver at a
ratio of sixteen to one would be intro
duced. This would produce unparal-
leled disaster in every department of
business.
Trade and commerce have advanced
under the Mckinley administration
in most surprising way. The excess
Of exports over imports has been
greater in these years than in the
whole previous period of our history
as nation. The mining and manu-
featuring interests i'll this county, as
well as elsewhere, are in a very pros
porous condition, although, for local
reasons, MorriStown itself has not as
yet shared largely in the general pros
perity.
1t is only reasonable, therefore, to
again commit the government of the
country to those who have carried it
on so wisely and 50 we'll
