WENT FAR TO HAVE FRIEND
PERFORM MARRIAGE SERVICE

wAYcRoss, Ga, May 6.-About year
ago Mr.. w. S. Krauss, machinist, came
to Waycross from Chattanooga. He as
sunred a position with the Gillon Machine
company and soon became popular
man in the shop. He was a good work
man and agreeable.
Later on Mr. Krauss met Miss Mamie
Huber, the pretty young daughter of Mr..
J. c. Huber, the baker. They became
sweethearts, but as she was young moth
ing serious was anticipated for the time.
A few days ago Mr.. Krauss obtained
permission to attend the May festival at
Chattanooga and Sunday night before he
was to leave he called on Miss Huber. os-
tensibly to take her to church. They
went to church. but they never came back.
Yesterday It was ascertained that they
had gone to Chattanooga Sunday night
and would be married there yesterday.
1t seems that Mr. Grauss had promised
an Episcopal minister of that city very
close friend Of his. that whenever or
wherever he got married the minister
should perform the ceremony, and so he
carried out his promise by taking his
bride-to-be to Chattanooga to be married.

WILT SAUL TELLS HOW A
MACNATE WORKS CONGRESS

Tawney, of Minnesota, came out d.
rectly behind them. There was a
general handshaking for time and
conversation in a low tone began.
Before il was finished another came
out of the doorway and looked over
the shoulders of the men about
James ]. Hill. He was evidently sat
isfled with look for he went back
Immediately.
News of the arrival of James j.
Hill had now spread over the hall.
Members came focking out. Some
shook hands with the merger"
king in a friendly fashion, while
others had to be introduced. None
felt inclined to depart while Hill
stayed and before it was realized
the passage way was choked up.
Not a Democrat was observed in
the crowd. Perhaps this happened
through the unintentional failure Of
the Republicans to invite their
Democratic friends to share the
privilege OF shaking hands with the
most powerful magnate Of the
great northwest.
Heatwole, pushed aside by the
crowd once, returned again and ask
ed the magnate if he might bring
up some yodng congressman who
wanted to shake hands with mag
nate. Hill said he would be pleased
to meet them. And he was. He
smiled wide. .toothful smile behind
those black whiskers as he grasped
their hands and expressed his pleas
ure in that deep but pleasant voice.
. Showing the fiat crowned derby
back from his brow he worked his
right arm like pump handle and
smiled fr>
What he said to that crowd is
none of the public's business. we
may infer. Certainly none of the
crowd considered the conversation
as Of vital Importance to the pub
lie for none sought out the newspa-
per reporters to tell them about IL.
Did the magnate get what he want
ed? Well, he was smiling blandly
as he withdrew down the marble
corridor. But perhaps the smile
was only a reflection of the inward
giadness he felt for having shaken
hands with so many statesmen. 1t is
an inspiring sensation to shake
hands with even one statesman.
After James j. Hill withdrew from
the capitol congress settled down
again 10 business, but for a long
time the hum of converse ton
throughout one side of the chamber
was burdened with the name of Hin.
From this reading we may learn
how far wrong the German come
dian went when he said a magnate
is a thing that bores holes in.

because the citizens OF this country were
under the impression that the Spanish
American war was against Spain and not
against the Philippine Islands.
Now. as the barbarities practiced on
those Filipinos come to our ears, we are
not only Disguised. but alarmed at the sit

II may be that advancing years make
me pessimIstic. but the abandonment OF
the Monroe doctrine by this republic be-
comes a very serious question for the
United States as well as their colonies.
For hundred years our country has said
TO all the world: Let me alone, and I'll
let you alone" II was our anchor for
safety.
Yet we buoke loose from the harness
and went like wild horses after SPANS
possessions on the other side OF the world.
and worse than all. these wild horses are
trampIing the life out Of helpless men.

as raised a finger in opposition to the
inhabItauts Of the United States.
II is an inexplicable situation, so far as
can see IL. t-

England had shadow of title to the

It is no wonder Aguinaldo's people hate
us. as the pioneers in America hated the
Tory bands that ravaged Georgia and
South Carolina, and destroyed the inno-

But worse than all, we faust hang our
heads in shame and disgrace, that seven
ty millions OF American citizens were not
able or willing OF too incompetent. or too
much under the domination of mad poll
ticians. to spare our own selves this ex-
hibit Of bad government.

exercise has become indispensable to a
people menaced with almost extermina-
ton, there have been but two instances in
which II has been even threatened serious
ly; the first when Massachusetts led the
New England states in an attempt to es-
cape frcm the dangers CT our last war
with Great Britain; the second. when the
same state proposed to secede on account
of the admission of Texas as a new state
into the Union.
I'VE are told that the south is
in rebellion without cause and that her
citizens are traitors. Rebellion! The
very word is a confession; an avowal of
taken from the despot's code, and has no
terrors for others than slavish souls.
When, sir. did millions of people. as sin
gle man, rise in.organized, deliberate. un-
impassloned rebellion against justice,
truth and honor? Well did a great Eng
lishman exclaim on a similar occasion:
You might as well tell me that they re-
belled against the light of heaven. that
they rejected the fruits of the earth. Men
do not war against their benefactors; they
are not mad enough to repel the instincts
Of self-preservation. I pronounce fearless
ly that no intelligent people ever rose, or
ever will rise, against a sincere, rational
and benevolent authority. No people were
ever born blind. Infatuation is not a law
OF human nature. When tnere is q revolt
bya free people. with the common consent
OF all CLASSES of society. there must be a
criminal against whom that revolt is
aimed
Traitors! Treason! Ay. sir, the people
of the south initiate and glory in just such
treason as glowed In the soul of Hamp-

flame from the impassioned lips of Henry;
just such treason as encircles with sa-
cred halo the undying name Of Washing

brought over 200 sacks of mail for Hoo
nolulu. She had a pleasant trip.
While in San Francisco, some needed
improvements were made to the inter-

new grand stair case leading from the
main companion way entrance on the
main deck to the promenade deck.
The vessel has fair sized passenger
list for the Orient and brought only
two lay-overs for Honolulu.
The vessel went to the Channel

THE FIRE CHAINS,

WASHINGTON, June 25.-Senate APP
preparations committee unanimously
reports fire claims on general deficiency
appropriation bill. Caypless has de-
parted.
WASHINGTON, June 27.-The House
today disagreed to the Senate amend
ments to the general deficiency appro-
priation bill and sent the bill to con-
ference. Cannon, Barney and Living
stOn were appointed cOnferees.
WASHINGTON, June 25.-The fol-
lowing are among the additions to the
general deficiency bill as reported by
the Senate committee today: Chinese
exclusion expenses, $4,000; reimbursed
ment of citizens of Hawaii for property
lost in stamping out the plague 1,OOO,-
600; North American Transportation
Company supplies at Circle City, &c.,
1853; caring for shipwrecked sailors in
the Attic $47S5.
WASHINGTON, June 23.-The Unit
ed States will go to the financial assist
ance of it's insular possession.
Senator Foraker, Chairman of the
Committee on Pacific Islands and Por-
to Rico, with the approval of his COM
mittee, will have placed in the General
Deficiency bill a provision appropriate
ing $l,OOO,O00 to make partial payment
of the judgments rendered by the fire
Claims commission against the Terri
tory of Hawaii, and to issue gold bonds
in the sum of $5OOOOO to pay all these
judgments. The bonds are to bear in
terest at per cent and are to be re-
deemable in five years and payable in
fifteen.
The Hawaiian customs receipts from
June IA, 1900, to March 81, 1902 aggre-
eating $2,29S 744.33 In the same period
the internal revenue receipts were
$l6S,543.S6 Subtracting the cost of col
lection the total of revenue re-
ceipts are found to aggregate 80, 461, 96S,
or shade more than the loss caused
by the plague. Therefore, it is argued,
the United States has received more
revenue from Hawaii than will be the
cost of rescuing the Territory from en-
barassment.
In addition to this loss of customs
and internal revenue by annexation,
Hawaii has been deprived of about $780,
600 of postal revenue annually, while
a merchandise tax bringing in $4,000
per year has been declared unconstitu-
tiOnal.
