A CRITICAL CAMPAIGN.
Controller Dawes Says Much Depends
on the Coming Elections.

Controller Dawes Says Much Depends
on the Coming Elections.
CHICAGO, May 5.-Charles G. Dawes,
controller of the currency. and Mrs. Dawes
arrived in the city last night. They expect
to remain ten days. Mr.. Dawes will at
tend the Republican state convention and
a week from tomorrow night will deliver
an address at Quinn Chapel. He declared
he was the bearer Of no message from the
administration regarding state politics and
that he had no other interest in the state
convention than that of Republican deep
ly interested in the success Of the party
at the coming elections.
1.-THE present outlook for the Republican
party is good" he said 1.-THE conventions
recently held in Ohio, Massachusetts,, Ne
braska and Indiana demonstrated that the
party is united in it's support of the ad-
ministration's policy. This is critical
campaign both for our party and the Ma
ton. The differences between the two par
ties are fundamental and not superficial.
On the result depends not alone the con-
tinuance of domestic prosperity, but the
peoples. On the result largely depends also
the question Of our share Of the enormous
trade of the empire of China. the bulk
OF which, although naturally belonging to
US, now goes to other countries. If our
fair share of this trade is to be secured
for the labor and capital of the United
States the policy of the present admins
tration relating TO the Philippines must be
maintained at the polls in November.
1.-The discussion of all these questions
of our duties as trustees Of the best in
terests of the peoples of our islands and
OF our moral responsibilities and CONNER
cial possibilities as a nation will tend to
deeply engage the sober thought of the
American people. And Ii is to the sober
thought and judgment of the people that
our party appeals for vindication of what
ii has done and for confidence in what 1t
hopes to do hereafter.
The campaign probably will see its
greatest activity. as in 1896. at the Chi
cago headquarters. The seat OF political
power is following the center OF popula-
ton to the West. and think the precedent
established I'm 1896 of having the executive
departments Of party management in Chi
cago will always be followed hereafter by
both the great political organizations
in my office at Washington the financial
law has kept US busy. Up to the 18th Of
April 619 applications for authority to or
ganize banks under the national system
with capital Of $4,000 had been received.

Broadly speaking IL is conceivable that in
some special production tool-making may
be carried TO a point where no further
profitable advance can Re made. and IL is
also conceivable that there may be things
useful and desirable 10 the few, which
cannot by Improvement of quality and low

10 the many. Speaking narrowly from ex-
Isting facts and conditions. 1t seems proba-

to justify themselves, vanity, all con'rib-
ute TO making the child lie. They act on
impulse. seeing the success of the moment,
rather than final right Search and try
your children to see whether they lie |
the truth. Make them ashamed to do
otherwise. Try to correct them quietly
and reasonably; and, above all, give them
a good example in this respect daily. Let
the child know at once that lying is use
less dangerous, ridiculous and low. At
bed time is a good time to impress upon
its mind the enormity of the crime of w.
ing done that day. but let 1t be done af-
fectionately and sympathetcally.
Making the Child Obcy-Punishmen
A child cannot be well brought up either
with continual caresses or perpetual bull

whose obedience you demand on reasona-
BILE grounds, because you are older ard

obedience by showing him the bad re-
suits of his disobcdence. But
at the same time let his PERSONAL

AS to punishments, it is not on record
that any one was ever improved by bar

IL is no cure for nervous children to be
so frightened that they tremble more at
fear OF punishment than from the tearing
of their nerves. The truth is that the rea-
sonable child treated reasonably requires
little or no punishment. Rather talk TO a
child than beat him. Let him see thai he
was wrong to do what he did and he VIII
remember this better than the beating
The mistake generally made is that the
parent seeks peace, not the reformation
OF the child. Utilize the self respect. the

Leonora Henderson Wants Property
She Decided Under SIisunderstand-

Evidence and argument in the case of
Leonora Henderson against Frank S. and
Carrie A. Van Glesen Were heard in the
Superior Court, before Judge Falligant
yesterday. The arguments were conclud-
ed. and Judge Fallgant reserved his de-
cision until he has had opportunity to
consider the evidence and determine the
questions Of law that the case involves.
The petition of the plaintiff was filed
In court some days since, and the hear ng
was upon the application for an intunc-
ton. The plaintiff contends that in last
January she went to Van Giesen for the
purpose OF borrowing so, with which to
pay the funeral expenses Of her husband.
who had just departed this life. She
claims to have offered as security a lot
of land in one Of the suburbs of the city,
to which The death of her husband gave
her title as his sole heir.
As she tells the story a paper was read
TO her by Lawyer Hitch, the defendants
attorney, which she understood, being ig-
norant OF legal terms and phraseology to
be mortgage upon the property for the
repayment of the loan. This understand
ing agrees with that she claims to have
had with Van Giesen. She signed the pa-
per with her mark and received the
money. When she went to Van Giesen
some weeks ago she was for the first time
as she AYERS, acquainted with the fact
that she had executed a deed conveying
fee simple title to the property. As
she had only obtained $40 and as the prop
erty is said TO be easily worth 500 she
naturally wanted to recover il, and the
suit was instituted to prevent its alienation
or incumbrance by Mrs. Van Giesen TO
whom the deed was made, and to have the
deed cancelled.
The old woman told her story on the
witness stand and her evidence was rebuff
ted by that OF the principal defendant. a
number OF his employees. and a man who
went with the plaintiff to secure the loan.
Van Giesen said he had refused to lend

MARKET STALLS WELL STOCKED.
Marketers Had Plenty to Buy and
of Good Quality.

Savannah's market is stocked with the
usual supply of summer vegetables and
fruits, and housewives are corresponding
ly happy, for neither variety nor quality
are wanting to keep the tables well sup
piled.
A peculiarly of the market is that as
the vegetables become more plentiful and
consequently cheaper, the price of meat
advances so that the buyers have a dou-
bic incentive for the purchase of garden
produce.
The greater part of the beef that is sold
here is from the West and now brings
from 1871 to 20 cents a pound, the latter
price being charged for fancy cuts. Nut
ton, of which the consumption Is, next to
beef, the greatest, brings about the same
price. Chickens are rather scarce, but
those offered are of an exceptionally fine
quality and bring very good prices, broil-
ers selling from Is to IS cents apiece, and
spring chickens from IS to So cents a pair.
Fruits and vegetables are plentiful, and
OF an excellent quality; plums of the COM
mon sort are selling as low as 5 cents a
quart and even those of the choicest
kinds OF them, brought from California,
are being disposed of at 10 cents q quart.
Peaches are going at 10 cents a quart, or
