IMPORTANT CABLEGRAM.

Washington, Jan. 29.-When the
senate convened Monday the presiding
officer. Senator Frye, called attention
to the following cablegram, which
was read:
Manila. Jan. 2S.-President of the Sem
ate and Speaker of the House of Repre-
Observation-Disclosures Accession to fed
eral party by thousands in all parts of
archipelago. Attitude of hitherto IT.
reconcilable press and the general public
opinion show that labors of party to bring
peace will soon be crowned with sue
cess. Until now political parties have at
tempted formation on plans more or less
questioning American sovereignty. Our
platform makes main plank sovereignty
OF United States with liberty to each
citizen to pursue peacefully his political
ideas. Hour of peace has sounded. On
our platform are grouped many Filpinos
OF hitherto irrcconcilahle ideas. but some
more obstinate decline to join. for
though willing to accept sovereignty of
Cnited States, the prospect of indefinite
continuance OF military government
makes them distrust purposes of the
sion.
adjournment of present congress with
out giving president authority 10 estah-
lish purely civil government with usual
powers. and postponement OF at least
Il year of such government until new
congress, will certainly confirm this dis
trust. Directory of the federal party
believes comforting such authority on
president would inspire confidence, hasten
acceptance OF sovereignty of union, and
the coming of peace. Directory there
fore prays both houses of congress to au-
thorize President Mckinley to establish,

A returned sojourner in Corea tells

mate object, and pray to it? Why not
pray to God, as Christians do?' II

christians close their eyes and look

pray. The Coreuns do not pray to tho
piece of stone or wood, as you imagine,

gaze upon Gods handiwork, for God

The ordinance Of the town OF War
saW. generally and popularity known
as Thunderbolt, which provides for
the maintenance and repair of the
streets OF the town by the enforced
labor Of the male residents of adult
age. has been declared invalid by Judge
seabrook and the Mayor and Aldermen
OF Warsaw prohibited from attempt
ing its enforcement,
The case reached the Superior Court
upon an application for writ OF pro-
hibition, made by William M. Kidwell
and other citizens of the town, The
applicants for the writ had been sum
moned TO do their allotted two days
work on the streets or to furnish sub
etitutes TO work for them, aud upon
declining To comply had been summon
ed before the Police Court of the town
and fined. Then they declined TO pay
the fine and were on the verge OF ar
rest and Imprisonment for their con
tumacy when they made their applica-
ton 10 the court and temporary writ
of prohibition was granted by Judge
Seabrook.
Ii was eontended in the application,
which was flea on behalf of the petit
TONERS by Messrs Beckett g. Beckett,
that the town was limited in It's tax
ing powers to the grants made It IN
It's charter from the state, and that It
had no right or authority. under the
terms OF its charter, to require It's eiu-
Gems 20 work upon the streets. II was
further contended that the ordinance
Was ultra wires, beyond the authority
of the Mayor and Aldermen 10 enact or
enforce. and therefore null and void.
On this showing the temporary writ
of prohibition was granted. Judge Sea-
brook in his order directing the de-
PENDANT to appear before him and show
cause why the writ should not be made
permanent,
There was no appearance for the de-
PENDANT and the writ was granted by
default. IN the order OF the court the
ordinance in question IL declared TO be
invalid and the Mayor and Aldermen
are permanently prohibited from at
tempting its enforcement against the
applicants for the writ.
The effect OF the order viii be to
force the town authorities TO the adop-
tion of some other plan for the im-
proVement of the streets. Mr. KID
we'll and his associates adopted some
what nervy methods TO uphold the po-
sition they took against the validity of
the ordinance. but the decision of
Judge Seabrook goes to show that they
were entirely IN the right,
The non appearance of the town
authorities to contest the grant OF the
permanent writ of prohibition would
seem TO indicate they realize they are
ia the wrong and that they are pre-
pared 10 surrender without further
night or argument, the position they
have occupied In the past
