Rob Davis drove to Plymouth last
Thursday with load of fruit, and left
his team standing in front of H. E.
Potter's store for few minutes. Dur
ing his absence the horses took fright
at the Tapping of a buggy robe hung
on the porch, and started out of town
at lively clip. Apparently they had
the road to themselves and ran till they
were tired of their fun. They were
found about mile and half west of
town, neither of them having suffered
as much as a scratch, nor was the
wagon damaged in the slightest, but
they had simply made ''pie" of the
fruit.
The festive candidate is much in evil

Petition for Purchase of sprinkling Plant

The following is the petition in full
presented to the board of supervisors
at the last meeting of that body. re-
questing that the sprinkling plant on
the lone road be purchased by the
county. which petition was passed upon
favorably by the board:
To the honorable board of super
visors of the county of Amador. We,
the undersigned, respectfully petition
your honorable board that we have
claims of unpaid bills against the com
mittee of your county known as the
sprinkling committee, for material
furnished and labor done in connection
with the sprinkling of the public roads
of Amador county during. the year
1901, and that the claims are as follows:
Dunham, Carrigan & Hayden,
Tor pipe .................S 4l6 81
Knight & Co., supplies, etc. so 90
Amador Lumber Co., lumber so 90
G. B. Vicini, sprinkling .. ITO 90
Total . . 1926 81
We further represent to your honor
able board that the said committee
raised large amount of money by
public subscriptions during the year
1901 for the purpose OF installing on
the public roads of Amador cotnty the
sprinkling plant, consisting of pipe
lines and tanks, for the purpose of
sprinkling- the public roads of said
county; that the Indebtedness incurred
by said committee for said purpose ap-
proximated the sum of $4,000. and said
committee has liquidated all of said in
debtedness except the sum of S626.S7
which said sum said committee has
been unable to raise by private sub
scriptiou.
That said sprinkling plant, consist
ing of pipe lines and tanks, is still in
place on the public roads of this coun-
ty, and is OF the value of nearly S25OO,
and can be used by the public and your
honorable board for many years to
come.
That the undersigned ceeditors could
easily realize the amount due them in
an action at law by sale under execu-
tion of said sprinkling plant, but in the
judgment and opinion of your COM
mittee such would be an uuwise pro-
ceeding, because said sprinkling plant
in place is worth much more than if
removed and used for another purpose;
that in the judgment and opinion of
the undersigned the only way they can
collect their claims is either by forced
sale under an action at law, or by your
honorable board purchasing from said
sprinkling committee for the use and
benefit of said county said sprinkling
plant for the sum of S626.S7
That in the Judgment and opinion of
the undersigned creditors, it will be for
the best public interests and your hon.
orable body to purchase said plant for
the said sum of 1926. 81, and thus
become the owners of the same, and
use said plant for the.purpose for which
it was intended.

eral officers of the French Atlantic
squadron, will represent the minister of

will be associated with Mr. Cambon.
They will be M. Jean GuilleTin. sub
chief of NJ Delcasses bureau. and M.
Robert Debility, also a member of that
bureau. Both of these officials are es-
pecially qualified by their perfect
knowledge of the English language and
by their open sympathies with the
United States.

ingalls, Thinks Cuba Undesirable as State and
Objects to Our kindergarten in tie
Philippines.
(By the Associated Press.)

Chicago, Ills, April 19.--The necessity
of expansion was the dominant theme al
the BANQUET of the Bankers Club which
was held tonight at the Auditorium
Hotel The chief speakers of the even
ing were President M. E. ingalls,, of the
+ Big Four Railroad Company. Robert
Lowry, of Atlanta, Ca, and Frank O.
Lowren. of Chicago.
The principal address of the evening
was delivered by Mr.. ingalls,, and his
views found earnest support among his
hearers. Mr. ingalls, said:
'If We would make this nation as rich
and powerful as it ought to be, if we
would bring money and prosperity to
ourselves and to the future, we must
adopt some of the plans that were out
lined by Blaine in his day, were empha-
sized by Mckinley in his last message
we must adopt system of reciprocity
by which we can increase trade. A
tariff wall against the labor of Europe
and it's competition may be necessary
1t certainly is considered so by large
number of our people, but the same wall
that protects us upon that side is our
ruin upon the other, and We must cult
vate the West Indies, the South Ameri-
can States and the Islands OF the Pacific
by reciprocal arrangements and rela-
tions which promote our commerce. We
must admit their products free, in con-
sideration of their purchasing from us
and, if this is done. we have not ships
enough upon the ocean to carry the COM
merce between those countries and our
own, and there is not money enough in
the banks to furnish the credit and ex-
change.
1--WE should then bind these countries
to us by ties stronger than any legisla-
tion. They would be our friends, our
partners in business. And confess
can see nothing but trouble in any other
partnership. With the experience we
have had in the Southern States with
negro suffrage, are you willing to under
take the admission of Cuba and Porto
Rico, as States, containing, as they do
large majority of colored people!
Neither do I care to maintain kinder
garten in the Philippines for the educa-
tfon of 5000, 900 Orientals Rather, ]
say. keep the hands of foreign nations
off, hold the commerce of these countries
furnish the transportation, furnish the
ships, furnish the money and the bank
ing facilities for their trade, and we will
have commercial annexation without the
danger of political annexation
Mr.. Lowry spoke in favor of expansion
in general, and paid particular attention
to matters in the South. drawing bril-
liant picture of the prospects and capa-
bilities of the Southern States

IT MAY DIE IN COMMITTEE.
Senate Undecided AZ to What Will be Done
With the Cuban Bill. IS
tBy the Associated Press }


Washington, April 19.-The Senate is
in no means decided as to what it will
DO with the Cuban Reciprocity Bill. The
measure reached the Senate few min
utes after that body convened today and
was received with exceptional interest,
which was made evident by the private
comments of Senators.
The bill goes to the Committee on Re-
lations with Cuba, which is composed of
seven Republicans and four opposition
Senators, Mr.. Plat. of Connecticut be-
ing chairman. When asked today if he
felt disposed to outline his view OF the
probable course of the committee wit
reference to the measure Senator Plat,
declined to say more than that a meet
ing would be called at an early date to
decide upon a course OF action, merely
adding, I'VE are not going to lose our
composure, but will consider the question
carefully" The best opinion is that the
bill will remain in committee for some
time, and Republican Senator suggest
ed the possibility Of an investigation into
the question of the probable beneficiaries
under the proposed reduction, if made.
There are not few Senators who pre-
dict that the bill will be allowed to die
in committee.

Ian ADDRESS TO WAGE WORKERS.
Urged to Bring Pressure on Legislators to
Abolish Injunctions in Labor Disputes.
(By the Associated Press.)


Washington, April 19.-The Executive
Council of the American Federation OF
Labor today adopted resolutions thank
ing Senators and Representatives who
have stood by the labor interests in
Chinese exclusion legislation and urging
THAT either effective exclusion laws be
enacted or that the full responsibility
for ineffective legislation on this sub
ject may rest upon those who, while
claiming in the Senate substitute to give
the country an exclusion law, are pro-
viding an act which will be sure to in
volve the Government in endless litiga-
ticn and then fail to exclude Chinese
laborers.'
The executive council adjourned sine
die this afternoon after adopting an ad-
dress TO the wage workers of America
signed by all the members of the council
which says:
"InjunctioDs Of a fragrant, unjusti-
fable and outrageous character are con-
finally issued, and honest, law abiding
and faithful citizen workmen are thrust
