Dewey After Them

Admiral Dewey is making a little tour through some of our western cities.
 In Chicago the laundries stopped wash ing, the women stopped scrubbing, and, in fact, everybody took a lay-off for one day to help make welcome the hero of Manila. But in the whirl and tear of this age nothing in the way of a celebration or the losing of a great man impresses the people enough to be long remembered So it is, you have got to give the people something that will stay by them if you get their money When you attend a wedding and see the beautiful presents that elicit the attention and praise of the guests, you are curious to know where they were purchased. Being informed that they came from Smiths Jewelry Store you are convinced of the merit and popularity of our stock. Diamond brooches, sterling silver. and gold watches, all of which are of the finest grade.

Bill Providing for the Erection of Government Building Fa-
 forably Reported.

Washington, D. C., May 13.-(Special)- The bill originally introduced by Repre- sentative Robbins, and re-ntroduced by MT. Aldrich, amending the act providing for the erection of public buildings at Anns- ton has been favorably reported from the judiciary committee by Representative Clayton. There had been some hitch in se- curing concessions of Jurisdiction over the site for the building. which this bill re- moves. When passed the treasury depart ment will begin the erection of the building.
 The seantors are tired of the exactions of the armor plate makers so a proposition for government armor plate, if armor for ships now authorized can't be obtained at $i45 per ton, will probably pass the senate tomorrow. This offers Alabama an op- portunity to secure the plant.

MINORITY REPORT
 ON SUBSIDY BILL
Signed by a Majority of Demo-
 cratic Members.
HAS BEEN FILED IN HOUSE
The Paper is in the Main an Argument Against Government Subsidies Will Not Encourage
 American Exports

Washington May 13.-The minority report of the shipping subsidy bill opposing that measure, has been filed in the house of representatives by the majority of the members of the democratic minority of the committee on merchant marine and fish cries.
 Representative Fitzgerald of Massachu- setts drew the report which was signed also by Representatives Deveries of Cali fofnia, Daly of New Jersey and Speight of Mississippi. Three other democrats of the committee, Messrs. Small, Runsdell and Russell, have heretofore submitted their views upholding the general principal of government aid to the merchant marine, but pointing out defects in the bill The present report, therefore, reports the op position to the measure, both in principle and in detail. In the main, it is an argu- ment against government subsidies, and as serts that most of the proposed $9,000000 subsidy will go to few and favored con cerns, without building up American ship ping in general or encouraging American exports.
 The report quotes a recent utterance of President Mckinley on the remarkable in- crease of our ship building, and says, in part:
 eour foreign trade, then, is increasing with wonderful rapidity and our ship build ing industry is remarkably prosperous with out subsidy. Why, then, should the whole country be taxed to provide gratuities for industries which are now prosperous and which have every prospect of continuing to be more and more prosperous.
 Even if our foreign commerce were in a declining rather than in a fairly prosper ous condition, it is improbable that the present bill would give any relief; and for the following reasons:
 Because subsidies are graded according to the speed and capacity of ships and are more than twice as high per ton of capacity for the swift passenger steamers which carry but little cargo, as for ordinary freight steamers, which carry 80 or 90 per cent. of our exports The subsidy, there fore, if it affects rates at all will affect passenger rather than freight rates"

FRICK BRINGS SUIT
AGAINST CARNEGIE.
He Alleges Malice and Attempted Fraud
Against the steel King.
Millions Involved.

PITTsBURG, Feb. 14.-The bitter strug
gle between Andrew Carnegie and
Henry G. Frick over the stockholdings
of the latter in the Carnegie Steel com.
pany, limited, eliminated III the filing
of bill in equity by the latter in com
mon pleas court No. | against the Car
negie company.
Mr. Friek makes serious charges
against NJ. Carnegie personally, and
after mentioning several alternatives fol
Mr. Carnegie to take, asks that in the
event of refusal receiver be appointed
to sell the great property and distribute
the balance among the partners.
FricI alleges that in 1900, right at a
prosperous time in the business, Car
negie asked him to resign, without any
reason, except personal malice. This he
did in the interest of harmony. He
then demanded that Prick sell his stock
at half it's value. This was Jan. IL.
ssFrick refused to sell at that price,
but offered to sell and allow three men
to value the interest sold. Carnegie re.
fused this, aud left Prick, threatening
him for not yielding to his demands.
"Friek now alleges that after his res
ignation, and at the time of this last in
terview, Carnegie was fraudulently and
secretly, without Tricks knowledge OF
consent attempting to carry out
scheme, which, if successful
would enable Carnegie to eonfiscate
Tricks interest in the firm at
probably not much over 80 per cent Of
it's real value; that is, say, not over IS,
100000 for what, on the basis of Carneg-
les option, was worth $16 1888, 900. This
scheme, Prick says he can prove, was to
revive and reinstate and make operative
an unexecuted and abandoned so-callcd
ironclad agreement of 1887 which related
solely to Carnegie Bros. & Co., Limited,
and never did include the Carnegie
Steel company limited; and also to at.
tempt to make binding on Frick an
other so-called ironclad agreement of
1899, which Carnegie never before had
executed, which Henry Phips had al
ways refused to execute, and which
many other partners had never signed. I"

The planting Of trees over all the
treeless portions of the prairie west is
a patriotic duty, Wherever tree can
be grown, elms and NAPLES along the
highways, willows in the sag holes,
trees on rough lands bordering all
streams, on bottom lands subject to
overflow, there plant them. Trees mod
lily and temper extremes Of climate and
break the force of the winds-the hot
winds of the summer and the billiards.
of winter. They check the evaporation
of moisture from the soil and increase
the humidity Of the atmosphere. Ev-

should be used for timber culture up to
the full extent of not interfering with
the proper working Of the land and the
production of crops.
