WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 4th, 100

Washington, Nov. 4th, 1901.
The speech of Secretary James Will
son, delivered at Dysart, Iowa, on
Saturday, is of special significance
from the fact that before leaving
for Iowa the secretary had two long
conferences with the president and
received from him special suggestions
about handling the subjects of pro-
lection and reciprocity. His utter
ances may, therefore, be regarded as
coming directly from the White
House. Speaking of reciprocity
Secretary Wilson said; sit was never
entertained as an expedient by which
trade could be extended to the ad-
vantage of some of our industries at
the expense of others. It would have
had scant welcome in any republican
convention had it been proclaimed as
a cas- by which new Industries
that gave promise of supplying the
home demand should be sacrificed to
the interests of strong Industries that
had long enjoyed the partiality of the
American people,"
Speaking of imports he said,
"When, within a few years, we keep
at home half of the $42O, OO0, 600 now
paid for agricultural products our
home markets will have been
strengthened more than all the extern
sion that can be secured outside of
our jurisdiction. The growth of our
country in so many directions justi-
fes the conclusion that we are devel-
oping towards a condition of com
p%leteness az a worlds national unit.
Half of our purchases from foreign
countries can be produced within the
states of the union, and, since u
expansion into so much territory
south of the twentieth parallel of
north latitude, it will be entirely
practicable within the lives of child
rem now at school to produce the
other half in those islands under our
own flag" From these u~tterances it
seems safe to conclude that the pres
ident does not anticipate any impor-
tant reciprocity legislation in the
near future.
AS I predicted in a former letter,
the president is deeply interested in
the proposed irrigation of the arid
lands of the west. He sent for
Colonel Elwood Mead, the expert on
the subject in the department of
agriculture. Thursday, and had a long
talk on the subject, instructing Col.
Mead to prepare and hand to him
data on the subject. Colonel Mead
tells me that the presidents expert
ence with irrigation on his Montana
ranch and his knowledge of the ranch
business leads him to believe that if
the supply of cattle, known as feed
ers, is to be kept up and our very ex-
tensive cattle exports are to be
maintained some method of making
the arid lands available for pasture
and the growing of forage must be
found and that irrigation presents
the only solution to the problem.
Democratic predictions of a split
between Senator Platt and the presi-
dent have, as was to be expected,
failed to m~aterialize. The official an

ACHES N PAINS.

You know by experience that the aches and
pains of rheumatism are not permanently,
but only temporarily, relieved by external
remedies.
Then why not use an internal remedy
Hoods Sarsaparilla, which corrects the acid
ity of the blood on which rheumatism de-
ponds and cures the disease?
This medicine has done more for the
rheumatic than any other medicine in the
world.

COBURN vs.. KENT'S HILL. TODAY.
Coburn. the Rising Star in Football, Will Have
Try With Old Opponents.

Coburn will line up against kent's
Hill on the college field. this afternoon.
and hopes TO drive one more peg into
the championship.
coburn seems TO be the rising star
in the middleweight class in foot
ball this year. She has already
played some hard games. this season.
and has not yet been scored on.
In practice she has given Colby many
I. tough scrimmage and the last time
succeeded in making touchdown.
The college team has a deal of respect
for the boys who wear the red and
have always been eager to line up
against them for the practice and ex-
perience which il afforded Other teams
are beginning to experience Il trfle
more than respect for this team. =
When Coach Allen gathered the can
didatcs for the team at tha first OF the
season no one would have predicted
better than an average team. The
school. by the way. has been very for
tuuate in having the services of Mr.
Allen. who is instructor in ma the
maticS. as coach. He was a member
of the Colby Varsity throughout his
course ana was always rrckoncd as
one of her best men. He has spared no
pains in developing the material in his
! hands and has shown no mercy 10 the
boys in drill and discipline This has
| been appreciated by the members of
the team and as result the eleven
| promises to be on top of the heap
among the fitting schools Of the State,
I this season. Constant hard and con
I
il is. today. and it has won the ad-
.niration Of all its friends. The CO.
burn team. last year. was the pride Of
the city and it bids fair to keep up its
! excellent reputation.
! IT is of course too early Yet to pre-
dict the final standing of the team, but
, il will certainly be a Crcditabie one.
The North N1Ssalboro. a town team.
and SkowhoEan High have each been

est game Of the season. last Saturday.

pion Of eastern Maine. went down to

and Hebron arc yet to come and will
all be hard games.
Captain Knox Leonard is left
guard in Coburn's line. and ii is Sa f.
to say that no man has yet found him
easy. He is a hard. conscientious
player. allowing no play to get by him
and SIRE of his distance when given
the ball. The Coburn boys claim. and
on good grounds. too. that their cap
tain is the best fitting-school guard in
the State this fall. BESIDES handling
his own position creditably. he has
ably handled his team in every game.

porter REPLIED that when hc said that
such a dispatch had been received at
his Office. he meant exactly what his
words Indicated. and he requested Mr..
Armour again to tell him something
about the story the dispatch contained.
or to say whether that story was false.
But Mr.. Armour wouldn't do il. He
only inveiGhed against tho rcnortc' )
chief and repeated that that gentleman
had not received any such telegram.
I'm bet you Slooo.' Mr.. Armour cx-
claimed, that your editor cannot show
me such u dispatch. and you tell him
SOL"
Mr.. Armour" was the reply. II do
not carry $1,000 or n check book. but if
you will hold that bet open IL minutes
I will go out into the street and come
back here and take it up with cash. 1t
will only be necessary for mc to see
one Of my nearby friends"
Mr. Armour mellowed somewhat
after looking intently at the reporter
for a moment. Then he said:
Your word for it. Tho net is good.
The reporter went back to the square
Of the printing houses and rccitcd his
experience. he also .nadC a strong
request to be permitted TO teach Mr..
Armour lesson. as he put it. not by
printing anything about his. expert
cncc. but by showing him the telegram
and forcing him to pay the bet. The
request was granted. and when Mr..
Armour saw the dispatch he turned
and wrote a check for slco0 forthwith
and handed il to the reporter. Then
he said that the dispatch lied. And at
any rate the reported scheme did not
materialiZe in Wall street.
From that day Mr.. Armour was a
constant friend OF the reporter. and in
turn had a friend in him: but no fiery
denial of the genuinenesS of his er-
randS ever again met the newspaper
man in Mr.. Armour's Office. ard he
often had to go there.

The heavyweights from all the neigh

70 the occasion. and it speaks well for

most approved style and all went
smoothly from the first dance to the

lNcM York SUM-


Some years ago a dispatch was re-
ceived by New York editor from the
editor of Chicago newspaper which
had not n reputation for spotlessness.
but which frequently published some
startling truths. The dispatch gave
the outlines of reported Wall street
scheme in which the Armours were
deeply concerned, and it asked the CO.
operation of the New York editor in as
certaining the facts. A reporter was
assigned to this work and he ca!le !
the late H. o. Armour, who was in
charge of the Armour interests in this
city.
When the reporters errand was
stated Mr.. Armour was furious. He
denounced the story Of the receipt OF
such a dispatch from Chicago as a line,
and the reporters errand as part of
some malicious stock ckjobber's scheme to
afect the Armour properties. The re-
