about peace in South Africa, was dis
patched Friday to The Hague. The con-
tents Of the note are kept strictly Sc

Is intended to be made In Parliament

reply is not in the nature Of direct neg

will have that effect. While Lord Lans-
downe probably will leave a loophole
for further suggestions, he doubts the

passed by a vote Of % to 2. '...
Thirteenth Day-The Senate was in
session two honrs and half. Most OF
The time was spent in discussing the
bill to regulate the salaries Of county
officers. The bill as reported by the
special committee is not satisfactory
to many OF the Senator's. but motion
to recommit the bill was voted down.
Later a motion was made to strike
cut the enacting words. but after some
discussion further discussion was post
poned.
Fourteenth Day-The Senate held
both morning and night sessions and
worked hard at both sessions. At the
morning session the bill fixing the sal
aries of county officers was the prin-
cipal matter consluered. After long
discussion 1t was decided to place all
county officers on straight salaries and
to do away with the fee system alto
gether.
Fifteenth Day-The Senate met at II
o'clock and was In session an hour and
a half without accomplishing anything
The bill fixing the salaries Of county
officers was up for consideration again.
A number OF new bills were intro
duced. A few passed second and third
reading.
Sixteenth Day-The senate caught
I'D with most of the business on hand
and adjourned until Monday night
The proceedings were purely routine
only uncontested matters being taken
I'D. A number of bills got their second
and third readings. ~
Senator Aldrich's bill to provide
punishment for those who negligently
expose children to danger OF fire,
which was under consideration when
the senate adjourned Friday night,
was passed over until next week.
The committee to whom was re-
ferred the salary bill to see that it was
properly engrossed reported that sew
eral errors had been found. and Sena-
tor Graydon pointed out these errors.
There were so many amendments that
it is surprising that so few errors were
made. It was finally decided to have
the bill printed even with the errors,
which will be corrected on third read
ing. There are many more amend
ments to be offered on third reading,
and the bill is in such shape at pres
ent that senators hardly know what
It does provide exactly.

Dressions of dissatisfaction Gen.
Palma was called by his political enc
mics the American candidate and the
candidate of the bureaucracy; but
the best evidence is of at least ac-

Gen. Palma may properly be called
the American candidate in this sense
that he accepts the settlement OF
the whole Cuban question that was
brought about under the Platt reso-
luton. For this there could have
been no other choice of a president
so fit. He is a Cuban by birth and
a lawyer by early training. His IA
