WASHINGTON LETTER.


The state department will take no
action on the private letter written
by the Chinese minister, criticizing
Gen. Otis, for having applied the Chi
nese exclusion laws of the United
States to the Philippines, the minister
having voluntarily called at the de-
partment and explained that the let
ter was not written for publication
either to Gen. Otis or this government
He also called attention to the fact
that he had publicly protested, un-
der instructions from his government
against the application of the Chinese
exclusion law to the Philippines at
the time it was done. It is fortunate
for the Chinese minister that he is
personally popular with the officials
Of this government. Had he been
otherwise, the Otis letter would prob
ably have gotten him his walking pa
pers,
Senator Thurston has again stated
that under no circumstances will he
allow his name to be used to break
ture. He says it is absolutely neces
sary for him to resume his law practice
and make some money, and that he
could not be induced to remain in the
senate six years longer.
There is quite tangie in the house
over the senate amendments to the
revenue reduction pill, and there is a
possibility that it may result in the
failure of the bill at this session.
Senator Chandler declares that his
resolution providing for the meeting
of the fifty seventh congress on the
second Monday in March, 1901, and
for the meeting of each future con-
gress on the second Monday in the
March following the election of its
representatives, was not intended as
a joke, but was meant very seriously,
and to meet a state Of affairs which
exists at the closing or short session
of every congress. Mr.. Chandler
thinks it is wrong to try to crowd a
lot of important general legislation
besides the regular appropriation bills,
into a short session, and that it would
be mu CHI better to always leave the
general legislation for the new con-
assem- bled Immediately after the close
o the old.
Senator Lodge probably came very
near to voicing the opinion of Presi-
dent Mckinley, when he said: "Before
the United States can give its APPROX
al to any constitution, or its recog-
milton to any independent Cuban
government, it must be assured that
there is no possibility Of any assump-
ton of the Cuban debts incurred by
Spain. We also have the right to ask
for proper guarantees in regard to
rela tions of Cuba with other powers,
and as TO places for naval stations
necessary to the United States"
President Nc inley said to party of
senators: "Just as soon as the Cubans
are ready to attend to their own af
fairs, we must turn their government
over to them"

David Harris, a negro, was fined

drunk, resisting an officer and carry

whom Edwards and Castator started
to arrest Tuesday night for being
drunk. He drew a young cannon on
them and they threw him in. The
weapon is 44-calibre revolver, long
barrelled and ivory handled. 1t is
about S35 gun, but isworth $50 now.

There was the drunk man here and
there, an exception to the rule. A
| fight broke out out pane of glass in
one of the cars, but no arrests were
made. Aside from this only one acci-
dent interfered with the operation of
the line. A loaded car left the track
at the switch south of the park Ev-
erybody got out and after considera.
BILE work the car was lifted back onthe
rails and sailed on rejoicing, Every
thing considered the opening of the
! line was most orderly.
4 great deal of speculation was in
dulged in as to the number of people
who rode, and the question was com
plicated by reason of four fares being
rung up for every round trip. one
fare to Gas, and another from Gas to
LaHarpe. TheeXact figures are ,, 706.
That many five-cent fares were paid.
The receipts were Sl39. 80, and some.

ride. Some rode the full trip, thus
paying four fares, but many only paid
two fares aud some but one.

The band after long wait finally
got onto car which they decorated
with banners announcing their con-
cert to night. They played on the
street before leaving and got off at
Gas City and played some more.
The most noticeable thing about the
whole affair was tie pride and iy of
lola folks. You couldn't tie an lola
citizen in such a position that he
wouldn't wriggle about and see a car
go by. 1t means much to the town in
every way and the sight and sound of
a trolley car meant great things to
the lola man. 1t looked good and it
sounded like sweet music. Every car
is standing advertisement before the
eyes of every stranger that here is
