AN EXTRA SESSION
Of Congress May be Needed,
Due TO Insular
Decision.
PRESIDENT TO CONSIDER.
Importers Might ship Goods Into
United States Through Philippines,
but spooner Resolution May Cover
This Contingency, if If Arises.

Cedar Rapids, Ia, May 29.-The
president and the members of the
cabinet spent much time reading and
discussing the published reports of
the opinions of the supreme court III
the insular cases. They were much
interested in the way the court d..
vided in the two cases. The decision
in the De Lima case, if followed in the
Philippine case, as 1t is assumed it
viii be- might result in the calling
of an extra session of congress. In
the De Lima case the court decided
that the duties collected on Porto
Rieon goods before congress enacted
the Foraker law were illegal and
must be refunded 1t is presumed
that the court, following the same
lines Of reasoning, will decide that
the duties collected on goods from
the Philippines were also illegal AMI
are subject to free entry into the
United States until congress acts, as
it has already done in the case OF
Porto Rico. Such decision would
mean not only the refunding of du.
ties heretofore collected. but would
open the ports OF the United States
to merchandise and goods of every
0N9N5 ifstiNtI& 1iO4ti titE HillUDIue6 I'LL
til congress meets III December. 1t
is obvious that importers might take
advantage of this To ship goods into
the United States through the Philip
pines, and thus deasaud the govern.
ment Of its revenues.
spooner Resolution May Apply.
Whether the danger from this
source is great enough to warrant the
calling of congress in extra session
will be decided only after full DELHI
GRAFTON. 1t il possible, however. that
this danger may have been already
obviated in the enactment Of the
Spooner resolution delegating tempo
rarily to the president the power to
govern the Philippines. This may be
considered an act of congress within
the meaning of the Downes decision
affirming the eonstitutionality of the
Foraker law. But it is a delicate
question, and one which the president
and his advisers will consider In all
It's bearings before coming to a con
clusion. The members of the cabi.
net decline to discuss the subject for
publication. They united in a mes.
sage Of congratulation to former At
torney General Griggs, who prepared
and presented the governments case
to the supreme court.

McClure's Magazine for June.
JOSIAH FLYNT AND MUNICIPAL RE-
FORM

In the opinion of an astnte cores
pendent Of McClure's Magazine, "Jo-
siah Flynt's articles have done more
for the improvement of municipal
government than has been done by any
or perhaps all other movements in
that direction. Such being the case
the citizens of Boston, particularly
those Of tire Back Bay, should vel
come Mr.. Flynt's article In the June
number, ''Boston-A Plain Clothes
Mans Town. in which "Boston Com
mon Shiny" hobo, discourses as fol-
lows:
There's Back Bay in ey'ry town
amt there? Sometimes it's like
Fifth Av'noo uptown ia York an
keeps its mouth shut, an sometimes
it amt. This Back Bay here In Bos-
ton don't shout such a-of a lot, but
it shouts just enough to keep the
mayor, the chief, an the other guys
a listenin' see? The toWn'll never be
absoloot'ly shut-dead shut, | mean
even if the Back Bay screamed itself
hoarse. You can't tell 500, 600 men
an women to be good an think they're
goin' to jus cause you say so. All
that the Back Bays shoutin' really
does here is to keep the graft from
gettin' too bad, rotten bad"

RESOLUTION ADOPTED
BY the Board of Regents in Re-
gard to Library

or the Late Senator Wiley which is
Desired by the University as Per-
manent Memorial-Col. X. L. Past
Appointed as Committee to NegO-
tiate for the Library.
The following are the resolutions
passed by the Board of Regents last
week concerning the private library
of Senator Waitman T. Wiley:
Whereas, 1t has been the policy OF
most of the leading institutions Of
learning to secure when possible the
libraries Of distinguished statesmen
and scholars who have been friends or
patrons of the institution, and TO pre-
serve the collection entire as memo
rial, and
Whereas, the Board OF Regents of
the West Virginia University recog-
aizes in the late ex United States
Senator Mailman I. Wiley, azealous
friend OF education, and one Of the
most ardent and powerful among the
promoters and founders of the West
Virginia University; and
Whereas, the Board understands
that Senator Wiley left at the time
OF his death large and valuable IL
brary, whose peculiar value now con-
sists largely in its association with
the memory of one of the most dis
tinguished citizens of the state, and
represents possibly the best collection
in the shape of a library left by any
man Of the time; and
Whereas, the Board being not I'M
mindful of the services which the late
Senator Wiley performed in securing
the location and establishment Of the
University, and in promoting its
growth afterwards. and being dcsir-
Gus of preserving some fitting memo
rial to one of the most distinguished
statesmen and scholars that the state
has produced:
Be is resolved, that the children
ans heirs Of the late Senator Wiley
be requested by the Board to donate
their fathers library to the Uniyef-
sity in order that it may be preserved
entire, as far as may be practicable,
in special alcoye to be set apart for
the purpose, and to be appropriately
inscribed as memorial to the worth
and character of Senator Wiley; and
the board signifies its desire to make
such rules respecting the preservation
and care of this collection as the par
ties interested may desire.
In case donation may not meet
with the approval Of the children and
heirs of Senator Wiley, the Board
would respectfully request them to
name the most reasonable terms upon
which they will be willing to transfer
this library to the University, in or
der that it may be preserved as a per-
petual memorial at the home of the
late Senator Wiley.
And Mr.. r. E. Fast is hereby au-
thorized to confer with the parties
interested and TO receive from them
any proposition that they may be
pleased to make touching the subject
matter, and report the same TO the
Board.

general spirit of complaint that all
the supreme courts decisions were
against Porto Rico is noticeable.
When San Juan merchants We're ques-
toned en- the subject they manifested
much regret at the outcome, as they
had hoped to have refunded all the
moneys paid under the Is per cent
application Of the Dingley duties. 1t
was generally expected that the
courts decision would grant Porto
Rico free trade and her citizens full
citizenship and constitutional privi
leges. When told if the latter privi-
leges had been granted the internal
revenue laws of the United States
would be applied to the islands and
that all funds and customs thereun-
der collected would be deposited in

questioned in the matter acknowledge.

their present status was preferable,
as they did not believe that the island
could stand the collection of United
States internal revenue, and that such
collections, If attempted. would ne
cessitate an even heavier propertg tax
for the maintenance Of Porto Rico.
Only few Porto Ricon business
men understand the Importance OF
the supreme court decisions. Those
who are bankers predict an immedi-
ate revival Of business, now that the
status Of the country has been de-

A Card To the Citizens Of
Cooperstown and
Vicinity.

Kinds Friends:-Having not an
opportunity to address you in a
farewell from the pulpit, through
the kindness of the editors of the
Courier and Sentinel respective
ly l am permitted to speak
through their columns. First
1 desire, gratefully to acknow-
ledge free subscription to both
the above papers during my
stay in Cooperstown.. l also
tender my sincere thanks to
both for the many kindnesses
shown to me in the way of pub
fishing subjects and notices Of
various kinds in connection with
my work. To the people who
have so generously given me
their sympathy and aid in my
efforts to build up the Masters
cause, 1 wish to say, such co.
operation has been appreciated
far more than words are able to
express. And I am but COM
mended to him who said. who
soever giveth cup OF col d
water in the name of a disciple
he shall not lose his reward. AS
for my brethren in the ministry
of this place, my associations
with them have been most happy,
congenial and pleasant in every
respect. AS I leave them, they
have my most heartfelt SYM
pathy in the serious and tre-
mendous responsibilities of their
work. I pray that you may as
sure them both by word and ac-
tion of your earnest interest in
that cause without which, the
the world would be inviting to
none. Having conseientiously
striven to do my duty as min
lister of the gospel of Jesus
Christ I leave you with a clear
conscience. Whatever may be
my shortcomings as a pastor and
preacher, I am sure no one is
more aware of them than I nor
feels them with deeper regret.

Aad yet l feel Tree to say,
that these, are not the cause
of my departure. | do not now
confess, haveing never confessed
that was in the wrong in any
which action has resulted in my
leaving.
Any communication addressed
to Versailles, KY, will reach me.
Finally, farewell! 1 know of no
words more fitting to express
my feeling toward you than the
following which are taken from
the Book of books "The Lord
bless thee and keep thee; the
Lord make his face to shine up
on thee, and be gracious unto
thee; the Lord lift up his
countenance upon thee and give
thee peace. !"
