Washington, March 2.-Interest in
the Porto Rican tariff measure has been
transferred from the house to the SEN
ate. Consideration of the bill embody-
ing substantially the provisions of the
house bill and in addition providing for
a temporary form of civil government
the island, was begun.
Senator Foraker (rep., Ohio, chairman
OF the committee on Pacific islands and
Porto Rico, being in charge of the
measure Scarcely had the reading Of
the bill been concluded when Senator
Teller sill. rep, Col.) proposed an
mendment providing tina the purpose
of the pending bill was simply to cstab-
Rico to allow the inhabitants to estab-
liSh a permanent republican govern
ment. This amendment was followed
by another by senator Stewart (sil.
rep, New providing that Porto Rican
goods should be admitted free into the
United States. A spirited debate was
participated in by Senators Foraker,
Teller, Stewart and others An hour
and a half of the session was devoted TO
a consideration of the Quay case. Sen
ator Hoar (rep., Mass.) presenting an
argument for the seating of Quay.
Senator Elllins rep., w. Va said
Quay's merits or demerits, or his per-
sonality should have nothing to do
tk,if hn l. III,
tanned it was clearly the intention of the
trainers of the constitution that each
state should be represented in the SEN
ate by two senators, that as cOrollary
of a state is empowered at all times 10
fill vacancies that happen during the
recess of the legislature The Quay
case was then laid aside
Washington, March 2 - Within
two hours after the special
message from the president recon-
mending the immediate passage Of a
bill to have all moneys collected upon
evacuation of the island used fer
the relief of Porto Ricans had been
read to the house the house had passed
and sent the bill to the
senate. The message came like
bolt out of clear Sky to
the minority They We're at first in
clined to hail it with delight as reproof
of the majority for the passage of the
Porto Rican tariff bill. Repub-
lican leaders, however. had the
bill ready to carry the presi-
dents recommendations into eff
feet. Mr.. Cannon (rep,, ILL
asked immediate consideration.
1t was only when the debate opened,
>, having been agreed that 20 minutes
should be allowed on each side, that,
under the leadership of Mr.. Bailey,
(Tex) the democrats began lining
up against the bill because it placed
no limitation upon the presidents dis
erection in the use Of the money. The
bill was passed by vote Of 162 to 107,
10 democrats. 2 populists, 2 silver re-
publcans voting with the republicans
in the affirmative.

Waterford Man Victimized.

j. X. Hill, a wealthy farmer and oil
man of Waterford, received inquiries
from a man by the name of j. l.. Fin
ley, OF Middlebourne, w. Va, in re-
CARDS to check that he had cashed for
man by the name of C.. c. Boggs, of
Lechburg Pa, to the amount of $3.50
Boggs is an agent fer the Iowa Life In
surance Company, in which Mr. Hills
son was insured for the amount of
$1,000. Outside of the forged check
for $3.50 Mr.. Hill has been victimlzed
to the extent of $500 for premiums on
insurance on the life of John Hill, his
son, and himself. Boggs collected the
money and it is supposed, appropriated
the amount with the exception of the
first premium on the $1,000 policy to his
own use.
The froged check was drawn on the
14th day of last June, but did not come
to light until Mr.. Hill received an in
qulry from Mr.. Finley about two weeks
ago-Beverly Dispatch.

The boy stood on the burning deck,
Whence all but him did skip.
"Why, I'll just stay and rubberneck
Around this here old ship"
Then through the flames he darted fast,
Just like a crazy chump,
And out from meath his bunk at last
He yanked an old tin trunk.
"I'll catch a cold in this damp sea"
He cried as he grabbed line,
"But in this trunk there's a cure for
me,
There's a bottle of Tolu-Pine."
Some remedies for coughs we toler-

And some we can't endure;
But Tolu-Pine is good to take,
And it can't help but cure.

Liquor Dealers Will Contest.

A~AN 49, @~NoASAS w AL NfOlAlSote
Several weeks ago 1t was announced
that Athens county would attempt to
collect the Dow tax from Marietta,
Glouster Corning and Athens liquor
dealers, who had been shipping goods
to points in Ames and Bern townships
along the line of the T. g. o. G. 70. rail-
read. 1t is held by Athens county Of
ficials that wherever the money is
paid for the liquors, there the sale ls
made, and therefore the dealers are re-
sponsible for the Dow tax at every
point where such exchanges take place
The goods were always sent c. o. d. by
the liquor firms. The railroad agents
would collect and remit to the dealers
this making as Athens county officials
contend, the depot the place where the
liquors are sold. The Athens county
dealers, 1t Is understood, will contest
the legality Of collection of aX,though
their case is somewhat different from
that of the Marietta parties. Several
Marietta firms have sent agents direct
ly among the men at Sharpsburg
Dathrop and other towns where orders
would be taken by the representatives
of the dealers. 1t many cases, it is
said, The agents not only would receive
orders for goods, but would obtain the
cash. and this, holds the Athens coun-
ty authorities, practically makes those
towns the place where the sale is COM
pleted and the money is paid 1t is held
that where the transaction takes place
and the money paid that somebody
should be held responsible for the Dow
tax, and this is what Athens county
will endeavor to do.-Athens Messen-
ger.
Mr. NJ. S. Luchs, the Marietta dealer
from whom the Athens county officials
wish to collect $5,O40, said, when he
saw the above clipping from the Mess
enger, that his agents had never col
lected money in advance on orders
and that he failed to see how it could
be held that the sale was made at the
depot when the goods were sent c. o
D. Further than that, Mr.. Luchs die
not understand why there was so great
a difference between the cases of Mari.
eta dealers and Athens dealers. The
Marietta dealers are firm in their opin.
ion that they have been doing business
according to law and that they cannot
be held by the Athens authorities fol

Pursuant to the call published
during the week lurge number
Of Ardmore's citizens met in the
city hall last night for the purpose
of discussing plans for a grand
picnic and barbecue to be held
here in the near future. The hail
was comfortably filled and much
interest was manifested.
On motion Lee Cruce was made
chairman and Dave Best secretary.
On motion committeeof three,
composed of w. s. Wolverton,
John L. Calf and 81. Aronson.
was appointed for the purpose of
interviewing the citizens and espec-
tally the business men of Ardmore
to ascertain the sentiment in re-
gard to barbecue and the amount
of money that could be depended
upon for the purpose OF providing
meat and bread for the occasion.
M. j. Parker and Sidney Suggs
were, on motion, added to the
committee, which is to make re-
port at another meeting to be held
in the city hall tomorrow Mon
day. night.
The question of the date for the
proposed celebration caused much
discussion, large majority of the
crowd fayoring the 28th. Ard
more's thirteenth anniversary.
The objections urged to this date
was that it didn't give sufficient
time for advertising nor for pro-
curing and barbeeuing beeves.
The sentiment of the meeting was
largely in favor of a barbecne as
preferable to basket picnic, and
it was finally decided to await the
report of the cOmeattee Monday
night before taking action as to
the date.
Everybody should attend the
meeting tomorrow night so that
the fullest expression. of sentiment
as to the date for holding the pic
mic or barbecue may be. had.
