LAWYERS
AGAINST
ANARCHY

New YORK, Oct 9.--The Association
of the Bar Of the City of New York has
just adopted a memorial on the death
of President Mckinley. In part it says
"As members of the profession, es
pecially charged with the administration
OF justice, we declare our conviction, in
view Of the tragic occurrence which we
so deeply deplore, that never in the his.
tory Of this nation has it been OF more
vital Importance that just laws be enact
ed and lmparlially and firmly executed;
that with the preservation Of free speech
and wholesome criticism of public
measures and methods OF public admin.
istration, reckless agitation and the
glorifcation Of lawless violence be re-
pressed" I"

ANARCHIST
PAPER
Barred From the Mails, But
Seeks to Re>enter.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 9.-Abraham Isaak,
publisher Of paper in Chicago, called
"Free Society,"" formerly the Fire
brand" which was barred from the
mails by the Chicago Postmaster last
week, has applied for reentry Of the
publication to the second class.
Postmaster Coyne forwarded copy
of the paper containing an article
by Emma Goldman on the assas.
snation Of President Mckinley for
a ruling on the question o! its re-entry
to the mails under any classification.
The Department will call on Postmaster
Coyne for further information and will
probably test the subscription list Of the
paper by addressing persons on the list,
asking them whether they are actually
subscribers. This is the usual procedure.
There is no law, according to the officials,
under which a paper can be barred,
merely on the ground that it is anarch-
stic in its uttersnces,

Waterville Times: The new crop is
beginning to move and prices are better
established here in this country. Re.
cent sales in the interior of this State
have been at 1l@I2c, but farmers do not
care to sell many lots at those prices,
and this results in holding off policy
on the part OF dealers who are somewhat
undecided as TO the future OF the market.
Not much business doing on the
Pacific Coast, and operators there are
waiting for England to move. Our local
market has shown steadiness this week,
and while tho trading has not been
large rather more stock has changed
hands, A few quite Indifferent sales of
1901 hops at l3c. but II Sl5c represents
most receivers views. The finest OF the
1900 crop caH be bought at l3c, and most
OF the holdings are not worth over IL @
l2c. So far as We can ascertain the harvest
ia this State is completed, and picking
is over on the coast with the exception
OF few sections in Washington and the
Sonoma district in California. Esti-
mates Of the yield vary good deal, but
run about as follows: New York State,
10000 to $1,000 bales; Washington 2s-
600 to $4,000; Oregon, $1,000 to 60, 900
bales; California, 10000 to
40, 900 bales. The minimum estimate
is, therefore, $4,000 bales, and the
maximum 207 900 bales. II lie generally
conceded that the English crop lie about
600, 900 cWt., with one-third low grades.
The government report OF stamp sales
for July indicated an increaed consump-
tion OF beer for the month Of 2, ,4S0, ia
bbls., but sales in June were 80 light
that tho presumption is that brewers
bought ahead somewhat in July under
the reduced tariff law.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. GA railroad
engine is now nearing completion in the
North Pacific Coast Railroad Company's
machine shops at Sausalito, which, il it
half accomplished the sanguine hopes
and predictions Of its inventor, will re-
suit in radical revolution in the con-
struction Of locomotives. This new me.
chanical prodigy differs from other
engines in that it has the engineers and
hreman's cabs out in front instead of the
rear of the boiler, thus affording the
men in the cab an unobstructed view Of
the track ahead.

ABOUT HANNA AND JOHN J. LENTz

Washington Correspondence of Tacoma News,
Ind,
Returned Ohio politicians give Wash
iugton come interesting information
about public matters there. 1t is be-
lieved in the state that Senator Hanna,
who is said to have aged greatly since the
death Of President Mckinley, is getting
ready to retire from politics. He will
probably s5rve through the coming ses-
sion Of congress. but it lie predicted by
Ohio leaders that he will resign next
year, in time to permit the next legisla-
ture TO select his successor, who it is
claimed will be General Dick. Ohio
feels keenly the loss Of prestige which
comes as the result of McKinley's death.
Politicians theirs recall Senator Hanna's
stout opposition to the nomination OF
Colonel Roosevelt for The vice presidency
at the Philadelphia convention, and say
that even II Hsnna is to remain in pub
lie life, he can never be the power in
Republican,counsels that he was under
Mckinley. This thought, it is believed
here, may have good deal TO do With
Hanna's alleged intention to retire. He
would be strongly averse to playing sec
ond fiddle in a game which he has done
so much to promote, aud there may pos.
sibly be something in the retirement
story, tbs news to the people OF this
city, however, and there will be much
interest in confirming it when congress
shall have got together.
Former Representative John ]. Lentz,
say these returned Ohio pilgrims, has
made a nice mess Of his interview speak
ing slightly Of Mckinley. His newspaper
in Columbus has been raided, and had
he been in town at the time he doubtless
would have fallen into the hands OF an
angry mob. A late denial Of the inter.
view has not helped matters. Governor
Nash is Lentz's law partner, and now
there lie a general demand from all parts
Of the state that the partnership be dis
solved Nash doesn't like TO yield TO the
demand, but the pressure is becoming 80
great that he cannot well refuse. Old
soldier and other organizations in Ohio
are writing letters to Nash saying they
will vote for Kilbourne for governor un-
less the partnership is dissolved at once.
1t is the intention Of the people of the
state to ostracise Lentz, socially, 10 busl-
ness, and in all other ways, aud drive
him from the state. This is pretty
severe punishment, but II there is a stale
in the Union that should protect Nc.
Kinley's memory it is Ohio.

The Annual Enesmpmsnt.

The annual encampment which oc.
cure in ] une, is already being talked o.,
A plan for the outing, proposed by some.
one in Portland. is thus; The Portland
companies 10 be formed into one division
and the valley and Southern Oregon
companies into another. each division
TO move against the other and meet per-
haps near Salem, where they will estab-
lish their lines and carry on a miniature
warfare. Outposts, pickets and guards
will be established, scouting parties
formed and probably as a fitting end to
the ouiing'a sham battle will be fought.
This is only proposition, but might
be madea pleasing diversion from the
regular custom. Grants Pass and Ash.
land boys are not, as rule, anxious to
march 10 Salem, but II is likely that the
several companies would be convened at
some valley point 10 commence their
march.

Green Switch Lights.

Adyices are reported from the general
Offices Of the company at San Francisco
that the Southern Pacific company will
at once replace the stationary white
switch lights along its roads with green
ones. number Of the larger roads
abandoned white signals long ago. The
Baltimore & Ohio and Chicago & North
western roads use green only.
1t is claimed for the green light that II
is more distinct aud less apt to mislead
railroad engineers than the white light.
White lights are signal OF safety, and
engineers on fast passenger trains might
easily mistake house light for switch
signal, In consequence Of which costly
accidents might occur.
