on the side of the river. He described
how the s.boss of the net and his
little boy or striker" piled the net
from their boat. The bill, he said,
was directed solely at Georgetown,
and there was no occasion for it as
fish were sold at Florence at II!
cent apiece.
Mr.. Ashley, sitting in his seat, re-
marked sarcastically, "Why, this bill
dop's keepyou from selling fsh inside
the State"
The colored member adroitly avad-
ed this thrust by saying that be
would not pay any attention to Mr..
Ashley unless that gentleman arose
from his chair before speaking
(There was a laugh at Citizen Josh's
expense.) He continued ironically
that the author and friends of this bill
would soon be taking steps to stop
the lumber industry at Georgetown
because the logs foating down the
river prevented fish from coming up.
Had it not been for her fisheries
thousands from Georgetown county
might have been calling on the State
for help.
Citizen Josh had been somewhat
nettled because his ef)rts to discon-
cert the colored member had acted
as boomerang. He was embarrass-
ed when be wss forced to ask "if the
gentl'man, er-er the member from
Georgetown, would permit an inter-
ruptiop? He was cbagriped when the
black man showed quickness at re-
partee in his mongrel gullah and
parliamentary phrases which were
too much for the vernacular Of the
Representative from Anderson. The
negro had started to speak with little
sympathy, but concluded with laurels
for his dusky brow.
Mr.. Ashley obtained the floor when
lis dusky colleague sat down, grin
ming. He began to speak rather ex-
citedly about the good purposes Of
bill. There was no fish in bis county
at all.
Representative Bolts-Well, you
can get enough in a days fishing
in Georgetown to supply your county
three months.
Mr.. Asbley-There is just as much
right to stop the shipping OF fish as
there is in the shipping Of birds, like
we done the other day.
Representative Bolts-Shad is the
fsherman's crop, why don't you stop
shipping your crop-cottor?
Mr.. Ashley was heard to say, angri]y,
above the laughter which greete d
this sally, You done made your
speech, sit down, you niggar, you"
When MIR. Ashley concluded, the
vote was taken and it was found that
over four-ffths cf the membtrs
agreed with representative Bolts
and the bill was killed,
Then the worm turned again on
Mr.. Ashley, for he has a fashion Of
"clinching" the vote whenever his
side wins. To "clinch" a vote means
that the matter cannot again be taken
up. When Speaker Gary put Rep
resentative Bolts motion to clinch
the vote, there was howl of laugh
ter at Mr.. Ashley's expense.
Thus concluded one of the most
remarkable and the most amusing
incident which has ever occurred on
the floor of the House.
After the transaction of other bust
ness the House adjourned,

The Third Party ProhibitiOnists, as

Republican Party.

Topeka, June 21.-Mont Williams,
of Lansing, who was reelected chair
man of the State committee by the Pro-
hibition State convention yesterday.
held an extended conference with John
w. Breidenthal, the prospectivefusion
nominee for governor, today. The
conference was held i'm Breidenthal's
private Office and lasted good por-
ton of the forenoon. Williams is
opposed to the reelection of Governor
Stanley. Breidenthal, who will be
the fusion nominee is u prohibitionist
and has been member ofthe executive
committee of the Kansas State Temper
ance Union The day before the con-
vention there was much talk among
the Prohibitionists of making him
their nominee for governor. But the
leaders were afraid this would iniure
his chances at Ft. Scott with the Dem
ocrats, so they arranged to nominate
Frank Bolsinger, of Rosedale, with
the understanding that he should with
draw from the race later in the cam
paign if, by so doing, the interests of
Breidenthal could be advanced.
The details of to-day's conference
between Breidenthal and Williams
were not given out. From one who is
close to Williams it is given out that
Williams notified Breidenthal that the
Prohibitionists were for him and that
if necessary they would pull their man
off at the proper time in his interest.

Mr.. Major the famous cement man, of New
YORK, explains some very interesting facts
about Majors Cement
The multitudes who use this standard article
know that II is many undred per cent better
than other cements for which similar claims
are made, but great many do not know why
The simple reason Is that Mr.. Major uses the
best materials ever discovered and other man.
ufabturers do not use them, because they arc
100 expensive and do not allow large profits.
Mr., Major tells us that one of the elements OF
his cement costs 1915 "a pound and another
zoo gallon, while large share of the so.
called cements and liquid glue upon the mark
els are nothing more than sixteen-cent cline,
dissolved in water or citrlo acid, and, in some
cases altered slightly In color and odor by the
addition OF cheap and useless materials.
MAJORS cement retails at fifteen cents and
twenty-five cents bottle and when dealer
tries to sell substitute you can depend upon
II that his only object Is to make larger profit.
Ihe proht on major cement is as much As
any dealer ought TO make on any cement. And
this Is doubly true In view of the fact that each
dealer gets his his share of the benefit OF Mr..
Majors advertising, which nowamounts TO over
5000 month, throughout the country Estab-
lished In 1876.

ARE PLANNING PEACE
The First Genuine Effort to
Bring Peace
Has Just Been Made at Ma
nila---Distinguished In
surgent Generals
PROPOSE PEACE TERMS
Which General Macarthur
Accepts.-The Next Thing
Is to Find Aguinaldo and get
his Consent. Everything
Seems Quiet Enough

Manila, June %, 6;55 p. m.-Two
hundred Filipinos met this morning in
Manila to determine honorable and
decorous methods for securing peace.
The results were submitted this eve
ming to General Macarthur, who ac-
cepted them.
The leaders of the meeting will use
their influence to induce Aguinaldo to
accept the arrangements. If they are
successful, as they hope to be, they
believe Aguinaldo will issue orders
in conjunction with the American
authorities for the cessation of hos
tilities.
The meeting, which was the first OF
the kind since the days of the Filipino
congress, was composed of the dis
tinctly revolutionary element, the
Characteristics" being lacking. Thirty
political prisoners were released from
jail this morning in order to attend.
Senior Palermo presided and Senior
Buencamina, the originator of the
movement: Senior Flores, General Pho
Del Pillar, General Garcia, General
Macabulos and other prominent revo-
lutionists were present.
1t was pointed out that the ques-
tions to be considered were military
and civil, the military being con-
cerned with a cessation of hostilities
and the civil with the determination
of the political status of the Filipinos
The immediate object of the meeting
was to effect peace, and subsequently
the leaders could consult with the
civil commission as to political mat
tiers.
1t was evident that Senior Palermo
was convinced that he could obtain
Aguinaldo's sanction to peace
based on the following seven clauses,
which, after four hours, were unani-
mously accepted as compatible with
an honorable peace;
First-Amnesty.
Second-The return by the Ameri-
cans to the Filipinos of contiscated
property.
Third-Employment for the revo-
lutionary generals in the navy and
militia when established.
Fourth-The application of the Fill
pino revenues to succor needy Fill
pino soldiers.
- Fifth-A guarantee to the Filipinos
of the exercise of personal rights ac-
corded to Americans 10y their consti-
tuition.
SiXth-Establish of civil gov
ernments at Manila and in the PROV
inces.
Seventh-EXpulsion of the friars.
The statement of the seventh condi-
ton was vociferously acclaimed the
entire assembly shouting "Expel,
expel."

How to Counterfeit the Summer
DrOuth.

DrOuth.
Read by B. F. Pancoast June sth at the g.
A. II, HALL
The dry weather of July and August
is one of the greatest drawbacks to
fruit growing, What shall we do to
counteract its effects ? Our first
thought is, nothing that we could do
would avail to modify or change the
climate, or effect in any way the in
tense heat of the summer or create
moisture sufficient to insure our crops
without expensive irrigation.
A few things we can do that have
proven by the experience of many to
help very much in conserving and
using the water we always have earlier
in the season. Among these ] can
mention selecting the site for the
orchard. If our land admits of it
find a place protected by forest tim
Der from the southwest winds. If we
have no such a place provide one by
planting several rows of rapid grow
ing timber on the south and west of
our proposed place, and deep soil
such as forest trees always select will
be the best. Prepare the place by
subsoiling in the best manner posi-
BILE. Varieties should be selected
that are known to be healthy and
hardy in the locality. Those that
have the largest and thickest leaves
are the best drouth resisting. After
planting continue to cultivate and use
all the surface fertilizer from the barn
yard possible. Prune very lightly
injured, dead or interfering branches.
Shape the trees when young with low
round heads.
Not many farms in this county that
are not somewhat broken with ravines
and hills, a rock wall across the foot
of some gully, and well banked up
with clay dirt, would make a small
lake of twice the value to the orchard
and farm that the same amount of
land cultivated to any kind of crops.
If every quarter section could have
twenty acres of water the actual
value would be increased many times.
We should soon forget about the
drouth and the dry winds. We could
boast of Garden of Eden much SUI
perior to the one of old that was
planted and fashioned by divine wis
dow. Ours could have the advantage
of being lit with gas and tended by
experts who have learned to let the
tree of evil be cultivated in some other
locality.
Fruit raising to be successful here
must eventually be done by those who
have learned the business. Farmers,
stock raisers, traders, mechanics and
merchants have their own legitimate
has applied himself to learn to expect
to be successful. Horticulture con-
sists of learning natures methods of
making trees grow, of knowing and
combating the insect enemies and en-
couraging and protecting the friendly
ones which get their food 10y helping
him, also commercial knowledge to
enable him to advantageously dispose
of the products. To sum up, select
the best place, prepare the ground
properly, plant the right varieties,
cultivate, mulch doctor the diseases,
destroy the insects, and market the
fruit are the things the horticulturist
must expect to do. Horticulture is
the most enjoyable occupation to one
who feels akin to nature and will
persevere and overcome the thorns
and thistles, that has been placed in
his way.

st. Louis, June 26; Cars are run
on all divisions of the st. Louis
Transit company system in the day
time, and at night owl cars are OPP
Grated upon the Olive street, Laclede
Delmar and Page avenue lines as far
west as Taylor avenue. General Man
ager Baumhoff says that owl cars
will be. run on other lines when a de-
mand exists for them. To all APP
pearances, aside from the light traffic,
the only thing that might indicate a
strike is the presence of armed men,
members of the posse comitatus, on
guard around the powerhouses and
car sheds of the Transit company.
The police barracks have been de-
serted and the police are no longer
held in reserve about the stations to
answer riot calls, as members of the
posse are kept in the stations at night
for that purpose.
During the last forty-eight hours
there has been an absence of assaults
on cars of the Transit company. The
trenuous efforts made by the polices
deputy sheriifs and private detectives
to arrest the men who have been guilty
of stoning and blowing up cars with
dynamite has had much to do with
the greater feeling of security that
prevails.
Representatives of various business
houses besieged the headquarters of
the street railway union in Walhalla
hall. protesting that the boycotts de-
clared against them are unmerited
and unjust. I'm bulleton issued to-
day the unions are advised to act
lowy and with care in declaring
boycotts anb to take no steps with-ou
according a hearing to those against
whom action is proposed.
The inquest into the responsibility
for the death of three strikers who
were shot in front of posse barracks,
Juue 10, was resumed to-day.
After wrangling for two days the
jury which heard the evidence in the
case of Herman Schumacher returned
a verdict yesterday finding him guilty
of assault and battery and fixing his
punishment at fine of 81. The charge
of assault and battery was preferred
against Schumacher by Miss Pauline
Hesser because he drove her from his
saloon while a mob from (which she
had escaped was awaiting her bin the
street. When she went out in the street
the mob again be-set her, struck her
repeatedly and tore her clothing from
her.
Orders were issued this afternoon,
reducing the force of $500 members
of the sheriff's posse comitatus to 500
men.
The police commissioners, however,
added this request to the sheriff: 1--WE
request that you make such arrange
ments as you deem advisable to have
ready for active service upon the
Fourth of July AT least 900 men, as
the discharge of firearms and fireworks
upon that dav is liable too ccasion
and encourage acts of lawlessness
and violeuce.'
