THE people should take notice that
it was the senate that killed the text
book bill passed by the house which
provided for State uniformity and fixed
the maximum rates at the same as the
old law. The senate seems to be COM
pletely in the tolls Of the book trust, do
ing its bidding to the utmost detail.
The senate is the body that holds over
and will have another whack at text
book legislation. The present law will
expire before the assembling Of the next
legislature. She senate is bound to be
4 factor in the making of the next text
book law for this State, If it makes
none the people will be in the same
plight and at the mercy of the trust the
same as before the Legislation Of four
years ago. Evidently the trust in its
work this year had an eye to the future
and put in their licks where they would
not only count for this session but the
next as well, when the issue will be
more vital than 1t was this year, because
there will be no old law to hold over.
If the people wish to do any missionary
work they should begin now on their

Republicans Nominate

The republican primaries were held
Monday night and the convention Tues
pay night, There was the most harmo'
nous agreement on almost everything,
Candidates Of every shade Of belief on
city affairs and law enforcement jostled
against each other in utmost good ma
ture. The ticket has all the colors Of
osephs coat, II alternates along down
the line between dry and wet It Is
headed with a man who is dry enough
for kindling at a prohibition bonfire
Next comes Noyes for police judge who
has held the place for four years and
has been wet enough always and at all
times to suit the man with an appetite
that extends TO Milwaukee, In fact It
seems to be the usual opinion that he Is
more to blame for the lax condition OF
things during the past few years than
almost any other officer, In order that
the republicans may more fully develop
their insincerity and slraddling abilities
to sketch 'em comm an gwine," they
seem to have taken the strongest repre-
sentaiives of both sides. So the follow.
ing of this line Of operations OF course
gave Captain w, X, Bennett who has
been once or twice convicted of selling
liquor Illegally, place on the ticket for
councilman, However II must be said
that Baker is the only man nominated
who has a strong record as a dry man
The ticket was nominated, like every re-
publican ticket in this city has been in
recent years, by the old Vincent ma
chine. 1t is wet machine, 1t stands
for the "open door" policy Their rea-
son for nominating a dry man for mayor,
something before unheard of, was that
they did not think they could defeat
Martin in any other way Martin is a
thorn in their Sides They fear him.
He is the only man they do fear, He is
the only man disposed to contest their
supremacy and the only man with power
enough to do SO If he had the disposition
So now they want to smash him. In or.
der to do so they throw overheard their
old principles. Principle to them is Of
no value except TO use as a club to
knock the persimmon.
The ticket nominated Is as follows
Mayor, Willis Baker, police Judge, Chas.
Noyes, Justices Of the peace, Sam Morris
and Mr., Knaus; City Treasurer, Mrs.
Elmer May; Csnstables, Messres Shirk
and AL Jones.

which was attended by eight members
of the committee and four officers. The
report of the gentlemen sent to Wash
ington was received, and after full de-
liberia ton it was decided that, while we
could not recede from the action OF last
Friday, the tidings of the government
made it most evident that the first
thing was to secure Miss Stones safe
ty, then other steps would follow;
therefore we felt that, as individuals, 1T
was our duty and privilege to help by
all means in our power the securing or
this ransom from the general public.
Communicat tions were sent by tele-
graz so far as possible, to every part
OF the country, even the Pacific coast.
Money in sums largs and small have
been received in answer to this appeal
for humanity The government has
showed it's supreme interest in this
matter by already becoming the custo-
dians of this fund as handed to them
by Kidder. Peabody & Co. This plan
not only shows the government inter-
est but 1t guards any possibility that
any part of the money will be paid over
until Miss Stone herself has been placed
in safety in the hands of the proper au-
thorities.
1T will be seen from the above state
menI that the board has been unit IN
its whole action from the beginning ana
consistent throughout. It's officers ana
friends are willing to use, every effort
to procure this fund under the condi-
tions and limitation given. Any one
who had been present at the conference
in Washington would not hesitate to
have full confidence in the govern
ment's efforts. The officials OF the
board, having been received into Its
confidence, are willing to trust the gov
ernment: we, in turn. have no doubt
that the friends of the board will have
confidence in us.

FUTURE OF THE SHAMROCK.
Prospective Races Next summer-L -LiptOn
to Return Soon.

New York, Oct. 8.--Sir Thomas Lip
ton said to-day that the Shamrock
would be laid up for the winter at Erie
Basin, and not at New London, as
originally intended. The tall steel mast
will he taken out and all her other
spars taken on shore and stored for the
winter. By reason Of the great height
of the mast, the yacht will either have
to sail around Long Island In tne
spring, to get into the sound OF fit out
at City Island, for the spar is too long
to go under the Brooklyn bridge at any
stage of the tide.
A member of the New York Yacht
club, who Is prominent in racing, said
tonight: 'If the Shamrock should
meet the Columbia and Constitution in
the smooth water on the sound next
summer, I feel sure she would win
number Of races, and that would give
yachting in this country big boom. "
There is thought to be no doubt but
that the Larchmont, Seawanhaka and
other Sound clubs would offer prizes
for the ninety foot yachts, and invite
the Shamrock to compete for them. Sir
Thomas and his friends believe there is
a great deal more speed in the Sham
rock than has been shown and they are
willing to try her against any ninety
footer af1oat
Sir Thomas suffered considerably
with his leg to-day, and Is keeping very
quiet on board his steam yacth Erin,
until he Is obliged to travel. On Thurs
day he will give a dinner to Captain
Sycamore and the crew Of the Sham
rock and on Saturday he Is to be en-
tertained by the Lotus club On Sun
day night or early Monday morning
he will leave for Chicago, there to be
entertained by the Chicago Athletic
club for several days. He is to sail for
the other side soon after returning from
! Chicago. Captain Sycamore and the
crew Of the Shamrock are to return to
their homes by one Of the ocean liners
next week, after the Shamrock has
been stripped.
Sir Thomas Upton was the guest of
the New York Yacht club at a recep-
ton and dinner given at the club to-
night. About 200 members of the club
were present Commodore Lewis Cass
Ledyard acted as toastmaster, and Sir
Thomas occupied a seat next to this
commodore The banquet was served
in the famous ship room of the club
4 which was fittingly decorated for the
occasion.
The affair was entirely informal and
none but members of the club and in
vited guests were present, There were
no set speeches, and nothing that was
said was made public.

the sums received over night. The
rush Of contributors Is over, because
of the general opinion that the critical
moment has been averted and that
months time offers ample opportunity
to add to the fund
Charles A. Stone, brother of the cap
tive missionary, wishes activity for the
fund to continue for few days longer.
He hopes that the cable dispatches IN
dicating that the brigands have grant
ed a, months time are right, although
he has no personal confirmation of that
fact, having repeatedly sent messages
to both Constantinople and SamokoX.
He says that the idea in the west that
he had stated that no more money Is
needed because enough has been given
is wrong. He is still anxious about
getting the total Of $4,000.
Next Saturday will be Miss Stones s
twenty third anniversary Of her sailing
from Boston for the missionary fields IN

New York, Oct. S.-Fine weather,
GOOD links and a surprising reversal OF
form were the features in this the open
ing days playing in the women's golf
championship tournament OF America
which began to-day on the links OF the
Baltusrol Golf club near Short Hills, N.
]. Miss Beatrix Hoyt, who held the
championship from 1896 to 1898, lnclu-
sive was not a contestant this year,
and the present champion, Miss Fran
ces r. Griscom, failed to qualify for the
match play rounds, which will occupy
the remainder of the week Miss girls
com, while playing dashing game to-
day. was short on her drives, and her
nutting at times was rather faulty. AL
together her play was not up to cham
pionship form.
| At no previous tournament for wom-
| ems championship honors was there
such a large field of contestants. Be
fore the game began there were eighty
five entries, and only four Of these fall-
ed to take part in the contest r. Page
Kerr the secretary of the National Golr
| association who was on hand early this
morning. was appealed to by many or
the players in order that he might sane
ton the qualification of thirty-two IN
stead of sixteen of the highest scorers,
but instead of allowing thirty-tWo TO
qualify he arranged it so that the nrst
sixteen should continue at match play
for the Cox trophy, the principal prize,
and that the second sixteen should play
on at match play for a consolation cup
The leaders at the end of the days play
were Mrs. e. A. Manice, OF LenoX,
Mass. Miss Margaret Curtis, of the Es-
sex Country club, Massachusetts, Miss
Lucy Heron, of the Cincinnati Goif
club. and Miss Molie Adams, of VOL
laston Mass, who were tied with W
strokes each The playing length OF the
course. as altered to suit the women
PLAYERS, is $3.50 yards, just. 1926 yards
less than the distance Of the regular
course, and the fact that four of the
fair contestants negotiated this as
tance in 81 strokes speaks highly for
the quality of golf which the leaders
played.
Beginning to- morrow the sixteen who
qualified for the Cox trophy will meet
each other in eighteen-hole match play
The semi-finals will be played on Fri
day, and the final contests will take
place on Saturday.
